Most of the competition process has passed, Yuan Chu and Huo Fu have already appeared, but they were unlucky. When they met the Xifeng disciples, they were naturally defeated. On the contrary, Zhao Xiaozhong, who was usually inconspicuous, did not lose at all in the battle with his opponents from Xifeng. Although the Xifeng disciple's moves were insidious and his reaction speed was not slow, he was defeated step by step by Zhao Xiaozhong's bare hands, and was finally knocked down from the stage.
Just when Wu Fan couldn't wait any longer, he finally heard his name, "The thirty-ninth match, East Peak Wu Fan, South Peak Zhu Xu." Then he hurried to the competition stage, and without thinking, he took out a Grab a big knife and jump on stage. I saw Zhu Xu on the opposite side with a proud look on his face, drew out a long sword, and stood opposite Wu Fan. Among the disciples watching the battle, only two people were heard whispering: "It's actually Senior Brother Zhu Xu. I heard that he has also mastered the Ice Art." "Well, the Water Art is not easy to practice in the first place, but he can actually master the Mutation Art. It's really so amazing!"
On the competition stage, Zhu Xu pointed his long sword at Wu Fan and said, "This disciple from Dongfeng is a newcomer. I, Zhu Xu, don't bully newcomers. You should admit defeat now." Wu Fan heard this and thought to himself, the disciple from Nanfeng To be so arrogant, and being looked down upon again, Wuming felt a little more angry in his heart: "Where's all the nonsense! If you're afraid, just admit defeat!" "Then you're asking for trouble, take it! "As he said that, he stabbed with a sword!
Although this is the first time I have officially faced an enemy, the things I have learned over the years have not been in vain. Although I was particularly embarrassed at the beginning, I gradually became more comfortable and felt like I was back when I was fighting the skeleton monster, and my nervousness relaxed. Come down.
The more Zhu Xu fought, the more frightened he became. Although he didn't use all his strength at the beginning, he had no intention of underestimating the enemy. But now he was struggling a little. Every attack was easily resolved by the opponent, and when he blocked the opponent's sword, he became more and more frightened. At this time, the hand holding the sword was slightly numb from the quilt, but although he was in a dilemma, he refused to admit defeat: "You kid actually has two tricks! But I haven't used my special skills yet, and I didn't plan to be exposed early, but you If you continue to entangle me, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Before he could continue speaking, Wu Fan responded with a few slashes to the left and right. Zhu Xu sneered and shouted softly: "Ice Jue!" There seemed to be mist on the competition stage, and a faint light shone in the air. In the light, the sword in Zhu Xu's hand became more glittering and dazzling. The long sword stirred and stabbed Wu Fan with a cold air.
When Wu Fan saw this, he was slightly surprised. Why did the Five Elements Jue also include the Ice Jue? But he didn't dare to relax at all, so he quickly crossed the blade and blocked the attack with a clang. But even though the sword was blocked, the cold air continued to move forward, directly enveloping Wu Fan. Wu Fan felt like he was in an ice cave, as if his body movements had become slower. Seeing Zhu Xu stabbing with several more swords, Wu Fan did not dare to hesitate at all and hurriedly retreated to one side.
"Master, does the Jade Pot Sect only have the Five Elements Technique? Is it too simple?" Wu Fan asked curiously on the road to Beifeng. "Simple? That's because you were lucky enough to have mastered it all. The Five Elements Technique of the Jade Pot Sect is one of the basic techniques, and the Five Elements Technique is not just what you see." Master Yunlang picked it up. A leaf, I saw him secretly reciting the magic formula, and the soft leaf was immediately covered with a thin layer of stone armor, which made Wu Fan secretly surprised that it could be used in this way, "The five elements are ever-changing and can be mutated and derived. If you use it properly, you can grasp the overall situation and survive in desperate situations." Wu Fan suddenly recalled the conversation he had with his master on the way out of Beifeng that day, and suddenly realized it.
Wu Fan glanced at the big knife in his hand. It had been eroded by the cold air and had become very fragile and full of cracks, as if it was about to be stabbed to pieces after a single blow. He thought that Zhu Xu's sword should be the same, but he just blocked it with the blade, accelerating the damage of the weapon. At this time, Zhu Xu saw that Wu Fan had escaped the attack, so he aggressively chased after him with a sword!
Wu Fan had an idea in his mind and secretly recited the earth secret. He saw a layer of stone armor covering the surface of the sword, but because the color was almost the same, it did not attract Zhu Xu's attention. He still moved the sword horizontally and pointed directly towards the tip of the sword. Rush away. Everyone was shocked when they saw it. Did this kid give up on himself? They all craned their necks to watch Wu Fan fail.
Seeing that the tip of the sword was about to pierce the blade, the cold air almost spread to Wu Fan's whole body, but he did not flinch at all, and pushed forward with both hands. There was just a click, and the cold sword broke into pieces piece by piece from the tip of the sword. Before Zhu Xu could react, Wu Fan saw the blade of the sword in front of him, hit him in the chest, and fell directly to the ground. land. When he was about to stand up, he saw a big knife pointed at him, "This senior brother from the southeast must have been here earlier. I, Wu Fan, don't bully the old man. You should admit defeat now."
Although Zhu Xu felt in his heart that he could still fight without weapons, but now that his sword was broken, he could only admit defeat honestly. But just as he jumped off the stage, he only heard a sputtering sound. When he looked back, he saw that the big knife in Wu Fan's hand was also broken into pieces. He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and left dejectedly.
"The thirty-ninth round, the winner! Wu Fan. The next round..." The dull first round of competition ended like this, because it was already noon, and the winner also had to take a short rest, and the remaining fifty people The winner will be decided in the afternoon.
On their way back to Dongfeng, Wu Fan and the others saw Yuan Chu and the others looking sad, so he stepped forward to comfort them: "Brother Yuan, victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. Don't pay too much attention to it." "Brother Xiao Fan, I It’s not that I don’t care about the result of the competition, it’s just that the fight was aggravating this time.” Several Dongfeng disciples who had participated in the previous competition also interjected: “Yes, we usually have friction with Xifeng, and they are almost all ours. My subordinates were defeated, but I don’t know what happened in this competition. It was as if I had been beaten to death." "Yes, and since the disciples of Xifeng were inspected, they haven’t won much."
At this time, a little man in the crowd said hesitantly: "Brother Xiaofan, I think it seems to be related to Lu Chun." "Eh? Zhao Xiaochong, you performed well today. Did you find anything?" Yuan Chu heard. Zhao Xiaozhong spoke and quickly pulled him in front of him, "Keep talking!" Then Zhao Xiaozhong told what happened in detail.
It turned out that he was too nervous, and before he got to the end of a game, he hurriedly wanted to find a place to relax. Just when he was about to solve the problem, he suddenly heard someone talking. He hid for fear of being discovered. He only saw a slightly strong figure talking to Lu Chun, and this person seemed to be the one who competed just now. He Qing. After just a few words, Lu Chun asked He Qing to drink something, and then He Qing became emaciated.
Zhao Xiaozhong was shocked when he saw this. He hid behind a tree and did not dare to say anything. After a long time, he dared to look out and found that everyone seemed to be gone, so he dared to release the water. Later, he secretly returned to the crowd. Because he was worried that he had just missed it, he didn't dare to ask, so he could only stare at the competition field nervously, but he forgot about it.
"That's what I said! It must have something to do with this old dog! Why did these weak chickens turn into phoenixes! It turns out they used medicine! What should we do now?" Hearing Yuan Chu yelling here, Wu Fan felt in his heart I also have mixed feelings. I didn't expect that Lu Chun would become even more lawless now. I must report it to the master as soon as possible. So he opened his mouth and replied: "Let's not be too public for the time being. After all, we have already checked the suspicions. If we confront each other face to face, there will definitely be no evidence. And if Lu Chun knows that he has been discovered, it will definitely be detrimental to us. What happens next? We don’t have many people left in the competition. Fortunately, the Xifeng disciples have restrained themselves a little. As long as they pay a little attention, there won’t be any problems. I will report it to Master secretly later.”
After talking, everyone returned to Dongfeng and went back to their respective courtyards to rest. Hearing that both Wu Fan and Zhao Xiaozhong had been promoted, the disciples of the Ninth Academy burst into cheers, which relaxed their nervousness. They no longer wanted to rest, and told them what happened in the morning.
"The afternoon competition will begin soon, everyone, be prepared! The first competition will be Wufan on the East Peak and Qi Ming on the South Peak."
In this match, the Nanfeng disciple opposite Wu Fan lost his fighting spirit when he saw that his opponent was the one who defeated Senior Brother Zhu Xu. He just pretended to be defeated and surrendered after a few simple moves, which made Wu Fan feel baffled. But after all, the result was victory, and of course he was very happy. After getting off the competition stage and returning to the original place, he found a place behind the people and prepared to sit down.
At this time, when he saw Master Yunlang looking towards him, he had a flash of inspiration, quickly frowned, covered his stomach and squatted down. Upon seeing this, Master Yunlang hurried over to ask Wu Fan. When Wu Fan blinked his eyes, Master Yunlang understood Wu Fan's intention, and took Wu Fan, who was holding his stomach, to rest in a secluded area.
Seeing no one around, Master Yunlang asked: "Okay, okay, stop pretending, mysterious, what's the matter?" Wu Fan smiled sheepishly, then stood up straight and said in a deep voice: "Master Sir, I can't help it, it's like this..." He told Yunlang what Zhao Xiaozhong saw.
I saw Master Yunlang's face getting worse and worse as he listened, and finally he shouted angrily: "I asked you why this competition is so weird. It turns out it was this scum who did something evil again. It seems that since they are all brothers in the same sect, everyone tolerated it." No matter how much he tolerates it, he gets even worse! Okay, okay! I will send people to keep an eye on him secretly. If the matter is true! This matter is related to the reputation of the sect, and the superiors will definitely not tolerate him! No one can be saved this time Him!"
When Wu Fan saw his master saying this, he felt much relieved, so he said goodbye to Master Yunlang, got up and returned to the competition ground.
Master Yunlang took out a jade tablet. As soon as he thought about it, he saw the jade tablet flashing for a few times, and then he felt a few black shadows appear around him in a trance, and then disappeared out of thin air. Master Yunlang took back the jade token as if nothing had happened, went back upstairs to the martial arts stage, and continued to watch the results of the competition below.
"Today's competition is over. The final five winners will be decided tomorrow. Please go back and prepare well for the competition tomorrow!" Because the number of people was reduced by half, the afternoon competition ended quickly. Regardless of whether he won or lost in the end, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Only Lu Chun held a pill and stared at Wu Fan who left with cold eyes.
