Chapter 64 Golden Cross
The moment Zhao Yunming said the words, Lin Fenghuo had already drawn his sword and rushed towards the girl opposite.
When Xiaoxiao saw the opponent on the fifth day, he rushed forward with a knife. He was not timid and stretched out his hand to touch his waist. A cold light pierced Lin Fenghuo's face.
Lin Fenghuo swung his knife to knock away the flying knife that had reached his eyes, but his steps did not slow down at all. I saw layers of red inner energy wrapped around Yi Xifeng's fine iron straight knife. The distance between the two people was also instantly shortened.
With a sweeping sweep, a wisp of flame-like red sword light swept towards Fifth Xiaoxiao.
Fifth Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and put away her initial contempt. His slender legs tapped on the stone slabs on the stage, and his body floated back to dodge. When she landed, a short thorn quietly appeared in her hand.
"At a young age, you are already at the realm of Mang. Among the young people competing this year, your talent is the best." Fifth Xiaoxiao said softly.
Lin Fenghuo chuckled and said, "Talent is something that can't be seen just by cultivation."
"Huh? That's not a small tone. Then sister will accompany you to have some fun." A charming smile appeared on Fifth Xiaoxiao's frosty pretty face, and Lin Fenghuo couldn't help but be startled.
It was in this moment of confusion that Fifth Xiaoxiao had already leaned towards Lin Fenghuo from a few feet away. An instant earlier than Fifth Xiaoxiao, what came to Lin Fenghuo was the girl who shot three cold rays at him. .
Lin Fenghuo secretly cursed himself for being careless, raised his knife and knocked the flying knife towards his eyebrows. He turned sideways and tried his best to avoid the vital points, letting the remaining two flying knives scratch the leather armor on his right chest and his left arm that was not holding the knife.
It's not that Lin Fenghuo can't avoid the sneak attacks of these three flying knives, but if he withdraws his knives to defend, the fifth Xiaoxiao who follows closely behind will pose a huge threat to Lin Fenghuo.
Both of them are Mang Realm warriors, and even the fifth Xiaoxiao cultivation level is better, so the winner can often be decided in an instant. It's no wonder that Lin Fenghuo would rather risk injury than give up the first-mover advantage he had gained.
As the saying goes: "It's better to lose a pawn than to lose an advantage." Lin Fenghuo's straight knife was still so stable and quick to cut at the stab from Fifth Xiaoxiao.
"Ding ding ding!" In the blink of an eye, Lin Fenghuo and Fifth Xiaoxiao fought more than ten times.
Wu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but nod secretly when she saw the other party's reaction. The boy was young, but his fighting instincts were mature. It was hard to imagine that in the face of a sudden attack, the boy's knife was still so stable, and every chop was so accurate.
The nineteen-year-old girl did not continue to love fighting. She tapped the stone under her feet and exited the battle circle.
Lin Fenghuo held his sword in front of him, guarding the girl not far away. Just through the fight in the blink of an eye just now, Lin Fenghuo had to admit that the opponent was no worse than him in terms of strength and fighting consciousness, and was even better than him in terms of cultivation and body skills.
He pulled a strip of cloth from the scratched leather armor on his chest, and then entangled his right hand with the handle of the knife.
When Lin Fenghuo was on guard against Fifth Xiaoxiao, the girl was also observing the boy who was less than ten years old. When he was his age, he was still "training" with Li Chengqian. The fifth Xiaoxiao smiled helplessly and took out another short thorn from behind.
The girl holding thorns in both hands had a completely different temperament. If there was still a hint of elegance in the girl just now, she looked like a qualified hunter in battle. Then the fifth Xiaoxiao, who holds the double thorns in his hands, feels calmer and more like a killer.
I saw traces of light yellow energy surrounding the girl's body like substance. The sharp edges condensed from the inner energy extended the short thorns that were originally only two feet long by more than one foot. Looking at Fifth Xiaoxiao at this time, it looks more like he is holding two shining golden daggers.
The girl overlapped two long thorns behind her back, and the golden long thorns were hidden behind her slender waist, forming a cross.
At this time, many viewers in the audience recognized the "golden thorn" in her hand, and they all whispered: "Is she the golden cross on the salary list?"
"I didn't expect it was really her. What's even more unbelievable is that she is such a young girl!" People in the audience couldn't help but admire.
Fifth Xiaoxiao herself is considered a relatively niche type of person in Yinren Village. She entered the workforce at the age of fourteen. Like most young girls who graduated early, Wu Xiaoxiao's own strength was much higher than that of her peers. But when she was sixteen years old, she suddenly chose to quit her career and become a mercenary warrior.
The so-called hired warriors refer to warriors who are not within the Yinren Village guard system, but are still affiliated with Yinren Village. You can take on Yinren Village's salary list tasks, and you can also take on tasks issued by individuals or other forces without harming the interests of the village. Accordingly, the village cannot guarantee the life and death of the hired warriors, and the hired warriors do not have to perform the duties and tasks promulgated by the village.
The village starts with learning skills and gradually improves the training system of Yinren Village. From the beginning to the end, there is no force on everyone to follow a certain path. Just like when Li Chengqian was a young boy and went on a career in the world, or when Wu Xiaoxiao took on employment and bounty missions on his own.
As for identifying Fifth Xiaoxiao's own strength, the village's senior officials naturally have their own methods. Therefore, not long after Wu Xiaoxiao left the job of Zhuang Ding, the name of the person who took over the salary list often appeared in the Xuan level task column - "Golden Cross". No strong man working in or guarding Tieyi knew this "golden cross", and the salary list she received was all for hard work mainly involving killing and assassination. "Golden Cross" soon became a hot new star in the mercenary warrior circle.
Lin Fenghuo, standing opposite Fifth Xiaoxiao, felt more real. Ever since the opponent lost the golden double thorns to his waist, Lin Fenghuo always felt like a light on his back. Lin Fenghuo knew very well that fortunately he was fighting against the opponent in the ring. If he met in the wild, his chance of surviving was very small.
"What a natural killer!" Lin Fenghuo laughed to himself and glanced sideways at Yi Xifeng, who was watching the competition from the sidelines.
As a best friend since childhood, Yi Xifeng immediately noticed Lin Fenghuo's gaze. Yi Xifeng didn't know what Lin Fenghuo was going to do next, but from his eyes, Yi Xifeng saw endless fighting spirit and a trace of regret.
"Admit defeat! Master Fenghuo!" Fifth Xiaoxiao said coldly, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"I recognize your strength, but it's a pity that you met me...I will use all my strength next, and I can't guarantee that I won't kill you." Fifth Xiaoxiao said lightly.
Lin Fenghuo raised his hand and interrupted the other party's words. The fifth Xiaoxiao thought that the other party had been persuaded by her and wanted to give up, so she said nothing and waited quietly for the other party to speak.
Lin Fenghuo murmured: "I never intended for you to recognize my strength, but you are really strong. The next move is also my full blow. It was originally reserved for another annoying guy. To avenge the shame of that shot."
Lin Fenghuo no longer looked at the audience, because he knew that Uncle Wang must be watching him at this moment. Then take a good look, this is what I prepared specially for you!
