Changsun handed the drawings to the iron tower. After confirming that the iron tower would take a day to forge, he rushed back to Qingteng anxiously because Changsun only asked for an hour's leave.
After the eldest grandson returned to Qingteng, he walked towards Yulin Courtyard.
When he returned to Yulin Academy, he saw Lu Xiaoran and others gathered in front of the room, as well as a classmate he didn't recognize.
"Everyone is here, who is this?" Changsun greeted Lu Xiaoran and others.
Li Yuan pulled his eldest grandson aside and said, "This boy is a student of the same year as Wenwen Academy. He has been waiting for you here for a long time."
"Oh? Wait for me? What do you want from me?" Changsun was a little surprised and turned to look at this strange classmate.
Changsun looked at the classmate in front of him. There was no real energy fluctuation in his body. He was probably not a warrior. He had a slender figure and a fair face. He didn't look malicious. But for some reason, when he looked at his eldest grandson, there was a hint of fighting spirit in his eyes.
The eldest grandson was a little puzzled, but he still asked politely: "Hello, classmate, I am the eldest grandson. What do you want to see me for?"
"I want to challenge you!" the man said straight to the point.
The eldest grandson was stunned. Challenge me?
"I, Bai Chenming, a first-year student of Wenwen Academy, challenge Sun, the dean of Qizi." The man formally issued the challenge.
"Hello Bai Chenming, we have no grudges. Why are you challenging me?" Changsun was a little confused.
Li Yuan took his eldest grandson aside and said, "You don't know, this guy named Bai Chenming is famous for being a challenger in our first year. He has challenged Wan Minglang, Cao Mingyu and others all over the past six months."
Changsun looked solemnly and looked at Bai Chenming. He had not noticed the fluctuations of his true energy from beginning to end. Could it be that he was a master of disguise?
"Bai Chenming defeated them all?" Changsun asked.
"No, Bai Chenming lost all his challenges." Li Yuan said.
"ah……"
"How could he, an ordinary person who is not a warrior, win?" Li Yuan looked at Changsun with a somewhat idiotic look.
The eldest grandson was a little embarrassed. It seemed that he was too cautious again.
"Bai Chenming specially picked the strong ones among us to challenge him. At first, these people were unwilling to pay attention to Bai Chenming. After all, Bai Chenming is not a warrior. If he makes a mistake, he may be injured. And there is no point in winning or losing in the competition with him. Good thing. But they can't resist Bai Chenming's persistence. Every time these people are forced to compete with him," Li Yuan said.
"Since he knows he can't win, why does he still challenge? To try to impress others?" Changsun asked.
"You're really wrong. It's not necessarily that you have no chance of winning." Li Yuan said.
"Um?"
"Last time, he challenged a student from Wu Ziyuan and took the opportunity to almost defeat him. However, in the end, because he was afraid of hurting the student from Wu Ziyuan, he stopped his attack at the critical moment. In the end, he was seriously injured. It stopped for a while," Li Yuan said.
When Li Yuan said this, Changsun immediately became interested.
Changsun looked at Bai Chenming and said, "I can accept your challenge, but you have to give me a reason to challenge me."
None of the people around him expected Changsun to accept the challenge so neatly, especially Bai Chenming.
Bai Chenming suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "I want to defeat you and prove to people that we, non-warriors, can fight like warriors."
Changsun could feel Bai Chenming's fighting spirit, and he could also feel his determination when he said these words.
"Please." Changsun said no more.
Only by treating serious people with the same serious attitude can we be respected.
Bai Chenming stood ready and said, "Please."
"Bang." Before the eldest grandson's voice came, he had already arrived.
Changsun pointed at Bai Chenming's feet and wanted to use his spear to challenge Mingyue and defeat him. But what Changsun didn't expect was that Bai Chenming rolled and avoided Changsun's attack.
Changsun was a little shocked. He used the combination of charging and spearing Mingyue. The biggest feature was that it was extremely fast and could produce unexpected effects. Therefore, Changsun is accustomed to using these two moves in his starting moves.
Even ordinary warriors would be caught off guard in an instant when faced with these two moves of his, thus falling into a passive position. Judging from Bai Chenming's dodge just now, he still didn't have a trace of zhenqi fluctuations on his body. In other words, he relied purely on his agility and agility to avoid his own attack.
Zhangsun put away the distracting thoughts in his heart. The most taboo thing about being distracted when fighting is that no matter how unexpected the opponent is, he must devote himself to the battle without any distraction. This is the fighting habit that Zhangsun has developed over the years.
Changsun used the same move to rush towards Bai Chenming, but as expected, he dodged him again.
Judging from the scene, although Changsun's attack was fierce, he obviously had some remaining strength. Although Bai Chenming seemed embarrassed every time he dodges, he was able to save the day every time.
"Is Changsun teasing Bai Chenming? He uses the same moves every time. It obviously doesn't work, but he doesn't change his moves." Li Yuan said to Lu Xiaoran beside him.
Lu Xiaoran hit Li Yuan on the head with a folding fan and said, "Is Changsun such a boring person? He wants to give Bai Chenming a chance to adapt to the rhythm."
Li Yuan rubbed his head and said oh.
"Furthermore, Zhang Sun was obviously testing Bai Chenming, trying to see how Bai Chenming, an ordinary person, could avoid his attack." Lu Xiaoran continued.
Changsun did have such thoughts, and he also had some clues.
Bai Chenming's body had already reacted every time before he used the charge. In other words, he relied on his own observations to predict the moves he would use next and react in advance.
After Changsun understood something, he decided to change his moves and try it out again.
Changsun stopped and looked at Bai Chenming.
Facing the attack from the eldest grandson Linglie, Bai Chenming's physical strength was obviously exhausted and he was breathing heavily.
After Changsun's breath stabilized, he said, "I'm going to change my posture next, so you have to be careful."
Although Bai Chenming's physical strength was somewhat exhausted, his eyes showed uncontrollable excitement. It was obvious that he had successfully defused Changsun's attack just now, which greatly encouraged him.
Bai Chenming raised the sword in his hand, pointed it at Changsun, and said, "I'm going to attack next, so you have to be careful."
Changsun nodded, leaving an afterimage of his body on the spot. The next moment, he turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Bai Chenming.
"Ghostly!" Bai Chenming shouted in a low voice.
While Bai Chenming drank in a low voice, he closed his eyes and looked serious.
Changsun didn't pay attention to Bai Chenming's changes, but quietly came behind Bai Chenming with his ghostly shadow. He raised a knife in his right hand and wanted to knock him out from behind.
Although Bai Chenming held a sword in his hand, Changsun didn't pay attention.
Judging from the previous fights, although Bai Chenming had practiced swordsmanship, he probably practiced some ordinary swordsmanship, which in Changsun's opinion was not very lethal.
Just when Changsun came behind Bai Chenming and tried to end the battle, Bai Chenming raised the corners of his mouth slightly, drew a perfect arc in the air with the sword in his right hand, and put the sword back to his waist with a sword sheathing gesture.
Although Bai Chenming was holding his sword back, from Changsun's perspective, the sword was inserted straight into his waist and abdomen.
At the critical moment, Changsun ducked to the right, rolled, and dodged the blow in a slightly embarrassed manner.
Changsun looked down and saw that the clothes on his belly had been torn a few times.
Bai Chenming opened his eyes, first panicked to confirm that his eldest grandson was fine, and then couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy.
Several people around him also felt a little incredible. If Bai Chenming almost defeated the students from Wuziyuan last time it was a coincidence, and this time he almost defeated Changsun, it was enough to prove that it was not luck.
The eldest grandson did not show any anger. Instead, he looked at Bai Chenming and said with a smile: "It's so dangerous. If you hadn't hesitated a little bit at the end, classmate, I might have been skewered by you."
Bai Chenming didn't seem to expect that the eldest grandson would not become angry, but he still put on a prepared posture to prevent the eldest grandson from making a sudden attack.
Changsun waved his hand and said, "Let's have a truce for two minutes."
Bai Chenming still hesitated, but Changsun ignored Bai Chenming and continued: "It seems that you still haven't learned from the experience last time. Being kind to the enemy in battle is cruel to yourself."
Bai Chenming then put down his guard and said, "We are classmates, not enemies. I just want to prove myself and don't want you to get hurt."
Changsun smiled and said, "Can you tell me how you escaped my attack?"
Bai Chenming was hesitant, but finally said: "The first level of momentum is to make a loud noise before each attack to strengthen the momentum. This move comes from the army. When all the soldiers use this move at the same time, the momentum created It is enough to frighten all powerful enemies. However, if used by a single person, the loud noise will reveal the action and alert the opponent. Zhangsun, with your own talent, you can arrive first without making a sound when using the charge. , this change of yours turns decay into magic, turning the disadvantage of charging into an advantage."
Changsun nodded, and at the same time he thought highly of Bai Chenming. He was a meticulous observer and good at thinking. He could analyze himself so thoroughly just by charging into the formation.
Bai Chenming continued: "I have been observing you when I went out to practice, and I have made a comprehensive analysis of your battles. Although you are fast enough before using the rush formation, you still have subtle momentum-building moves, which makes you use the rush formation. I have half a second to react, and this is just one of them. There is also your fighting habit. You are used to coming up and attacking first, so that you can gain the upper hand in momentum from the beginning. It can be seen from the competition just now. In addition, when you use the spear to pick the moon, your coordination with the charge is really flawless. But if I judge that you are about to use the charge at the first time, the next move of the gun to pick the moon will be It is easy to fail. To put it simply, it is the lack of changes after your charge formation is launched. Finally, when you use the gun to pick the moon, your eyes are always downward subconsciously, which makes your intention easily exposed. "
If the eldest grandson only looked up to him a little bit just now, then the eldest grandson's expression turned solemn at this moment.
Bai Chenming had done so much preparation work before and analyzed himself so thoroughly. If he were a warrior, he would definitely lose today.
It was not only the eldest grandson who was shocked, but also Li Yuan and others. Even Lu Xiaoran tightened the folding fan in her hand without being noticed.
Bai Chenming continued: "As for the sword that I used to stab you with the sword after you used the ghost shadow, to be honest, the gamble was a bit bigger. I have also analyzed the characteristics of your ghost shadow. Compared with ordinary people, your ghostly shadow is more mysterious, but it is also more ethereal and elegant... To be honest, your ghostly shadow is even more difficult to detect. So in the end, I can only vaguely confirm that you are not here. In front of me, coupled with the characteristics of your ghost shadow, and against a non-warrior like me, I guess that if you use the ghost shadow, you will definitely attack me from behind, so when I close my eyes, I have been paying attention to what is behind me. When you were about to take action, I caught a hint of fluctuation."
After Bai Chenming finished speaking, after a long time, Li Yuan and others breathed a sigh of relief. This Bai Chenming really shocked them.
Bai Chenming looked at his eldest grandson and found that he was not angry at all, but his eyes were full of appreciation.
Feeling the admiring looks of several people around him, Bai Chenming felt a little proud.
Changsun smiled and said: "Do you want to fight like a warrior?"
Bai Chenming nodded, full of fighting spirit. The results of today's competition only increased his confidence.
"I don't think the warrior battlefield is suitable for you. You have a broader stage." Changsun said.
But Bai Chenming frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Changsun's disapproval of the first half of the sentence.
Changsun saw through Bai Chenming's thoughts.
There was another "bang" sound in the air, and Changsun once again used the charging formation and rushed towards Bai Chenming, but did not take action, but stopped in front of Bai Chenming.
The eldest grandson looked at the somewhat surprised Bai Chenming and smiled, then returned to the original place, and then rushed into the formation again. Only this time, after making a sound first, the eldest grandson rushed out, and directly passed by Bai Chenming, and then fired a carbine. , pointed at Bai Chenming's feet, making it happen that the gun picked up the bright moon.
Changsun stopped and returned to the original place, looking meaningfully at Bai Chenming who was a little dull.
Bai Chenming was still recalling the impact of Changsun's moves in his mind. Changsun still charged into the formation and attacked Mingyue, but the first time he charged into the formation, he launched it without any preparation. He rushed in front of him in an instant, and he didn't react at all. time; Changsun deliberately slowed down his speed when charging for the second time and launched after the sound, telling himself that he could make changes to his moves at any time. If he had dodged when the sound was heard just now, Changsun who deliberately paused would Then you can dodge and then attack yourself.
As for the last carbine-style attack on Mingyue, he was also telling himself that the initiative was completely in his hands.
