Regarding Yan Bing’s choice.
Not only Xu Taiping and the others, but also the disciples from various peaks watching the battle in Yun Tower were not surprised.
"Specialized in picking weak persimmons, aren't you afraid of being laughed at at this first peak?"
"What do you know? The competition only happens once every six years. You must choose the most confident opponent. As long as you win in the end, no one cares how you win."
"This time, the Seventh Peak will be stopped in the second round."
"How can the Seventh Peak be the opponent of the First Peak? This match is nothing to watch."
"Qifeng is really unlucky. If we didn't target the first peak so much on weekdays, we might still be able to get second place."
Except for a few people who felt that the first peak was a bit unwinnable, most of them were gloating about their misfortune.
Especially the disciples from the Seventh Peak who had already lost felt very uncomfortable seeing the disciples from the Seventh Peak who were usually ridiculed by them entering the second round. Naturally, they wished that the Seventh Peak would lose.
And the worse the loss, the better.
Although there was a lot of distance between them, the monks had very good eyesight and ears, so these taunts and sarcastic voices finally reached the ears of the four disciples in Qifeng.
"These people are not nice to others, right?"
Zhao Linglong muttered unhappily.
"Don't get angry with them. The only thing you should be thinking about now is how to win this competition."
Jiang Zhi gently patted Zhao Linglong's shoulder and spoke to Zhao Linglong in a gentle voice.
"Well, senior sister, you are right."
Zhao Linglong took Jiang Zhi's hand.
"Taiping, how are you recovering?"
Qingxiao asked Xu Taiping at this time.
"It's almost recovered."
Xu Taiping had no intention of hiding his current situation from Qing Xiao.
"Your warrior physique has come in handy this time."
Qing Xiao nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
He attributed the reason why Xu Taiping recovered so quickly to Xu Taiping's physical condition.
However, in a sense, Senior Brother Qingxiao is right.
Xu Taiping thought to himself.
…
"In the second round, the first game, Shoufeng will face Qifeng. Since Shoufeng is the leader of the previous term, Shoufeng will send his disciples first."
After determining the opponent, the black dragon elder announced to everyone again.
After hearing this, everyone's eyes fell on the peak.
Everyone wants to see who they will send out first.
At this moment, a slender young man with a sword on his back jumped onto the stage.
"First Peak Disciple, Ye Xuan, pays homage to Elder Black Dragon."
The young man bowed his hands to the black dragon elder.
In this regard, everyone just thought it was expected.
"Qifeng will send Xu Taiping to play in the future, right?"
"Although Xu Taiping defeated Ye Xuan once in the Qifeng election, the competition this time was about sword control, and Ye Xuan's sword can now bear at least two hundred kilograms. Xu Taiping's last time was only one hundred and thirty kilograms. It’s so strenuous, this game is definitely going to be lost.”
Because of the grievances between Xu Taiping and Ye Xuan, many people started talking at this time.
In particular, some disciples who missed the sword-asking session wanted to see the battle between Xu Taiping and Ye Xuan again.
"First Peak Ye Xuan, how many kilograms of weight do you want to choose?"
At this time, the black dragon elder asked again.
"Disciple wants to..."
Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Xu Taiping and said:
"Disciple would like to choose two hundred and sixty two kilograms of ship weight!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the surrounding cloud towers again.
Although Ye Xuan is extremely talented, he has only been a beginner for three years and has only been learning swordsmanship for one year. Two hundred and sixty-two kilograms of ship weight is not a small sum of money.
More importantly, his two hundred and sixty-two pounds was exactly double Xu Taiping's weight in the previous game.
This was clearly provoking Xu Taiping.
The disciples, who were just watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, began to make loud noises.
"Zheng!"
At this moment, Ye Xuanfei took out his sword from its sheath, and after drawing an arc on his side, the long sword flew very smoothly to the black dragon elder.
It can be seen that after the last defeat, Ye Xuan's arrogance has restrained a lot.
Without saying a word, Elder Black Dragon directly hung a piece of shipwreck weighing a hundred kilograms on Ye Xuanfei's sword.
"Buzz..."
The sound of flying swords trembling followed.
Ye Xuan's expression also changed from relaxed to struggling.
But that's all.
Seeing how relaxed he was, everyone was surprised and couldn't help but cast their eyes on Xu Taiping in the audience, their eyes full of sympathy.
However, at this time, Xu Taiping was more interested in whether he could lift the two hundred and sixty-two kilograms than Ye Xuan's choice.
"It should be... barely ok."
He murmured in his mind.
This is not because of arrogance, but because Emperor Yan’s Baking Furnace Technique gave him this confidence.
Just after recovering from the pain of Soul Cry, he obviously felt that his sense of the sword was much clearer. He secretly tried it with his iron sword, and found that the onset of Soul Cry syndrome was also Not as intense anymore.
"Zheng!" Just as he was thinking this, Ye Xuan's flying sword flew out with two hundred and sixty kilograms of ballast iron attached.
Although Ye Xuan's face was also as pale as paper, his flying sword was extremely stable and flew to the cliff more than a hundred feet high in just a moment.
Then, the sound of "chi la" as the long sword slashed across the cliff was heard endlessly.
Ye Xuan's skillful performance made all the disciples speechless.
"Is this genius?"
Many disciples had a look of despair in their eyes.
Ye Xuan's performance today gave a heavy blow to many disciples who thought that diligence could make up for their weakness.
They had to recognize the reality again - practicing a talent far outweighs the effort.
