Chapter 253: Walking in the Rivers and Lakes
Although Li Chengtao has never admitted that Yi Xifeng is his disciple, after all, the exercises he practices are all derived from his master, and young people do not dare to accept disciples without his permission.
However, in the past three years or so, the young man Baijing has followed him and Li Chengqian to practice martial arts, and he has also learned a few moves of his Thirteen Wind Chasing Swords. Therefore, although there is no title of master and apprentice between them, there is a real relationship between them.
Li Xintian was raised together by brothers Li Chengqian and Li Chengtao. Although Li Xintian was nominally their little sister, in fact, the relationship between them was almost the same as that of father and daughter.
Even deep inside the fair-skinned girl's heart, her parents looked like her two brothers.
Li Chengtao looked at the bald man opposite him. Although the man's face looked gloomy and scary, he was still waiting for the young man's reply.
"I want you to bring a message to Ji Shenfu." The bookish young man said slowly.
The bald man frowned slightly. He knew that some things related to the duel twelve years ago and were not suitable to be stated explicitly here, so he nodded and said, "Okay, but I am only responsible for passing on the message, and I can't promise you anything!"
Li Chengtao nodded, but did not answer immediately. He seemed to be deep in thought, or how the organization should express itself.
Just when the black-armored men behind Ji Ren were slightly commotion, the young man said in a deep voice:
"I don't know what Mr. Ji thought about what happened back then, but I heard that you have been looking for me for more than ten years. I guess you are not convinced! Or maybe there have been new breakthroughs in these years, but I really don't have time. I have no interest in fighting you again."
Ji Rentu knew that these words were not meant for him to hear, but were meant by Li Chengtao for the county magistrate. He could only nod his head to show that he had taken note of it.
Li Chengtao continued: "But for this kind of thing, I definitely don't want to fight if I want to, and I don't have to fight if I don't want to. Since thanks to you, I am already on the Pingtian List, I cannot refuse the challenge of others. So today Let’s use this matter of yours to set a premise for challenging me.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
…
The Pingtian List is a list of martial arts experts that every child in the world knows. Although his credibility is no longer as convincing as it was when Baili Pingtian was alive a hundred years ago. But the strong ones on this list are still enough to illustrate the strength of their strength.
When Baili Pingtian set up the Tianjing Ranking, he established a rule that any warrior on the list could not casually refuse the challenge of those warriors ranked below him. This is an important measure to ensure the credibility and timeliness of the Pingtian List.
But if this happens, there will be a drawback. The warriors on the Pingtian List will often be harassed by cats and dogs. Therefore, every warrior on the Pingtian Ranking can set a challenge prerequisite. Only those who complete the challenge prerequisite are eligible to challenge.
Generally, a warrior on the list will choose a person he recognizes as his representative in the world, which is often called "walking in the world."
Every person who walks in the world is on the Pingtian List. Only by defeating this person can the representative in this world be qualified to challenge the Pingtian List. In other words, only if you go through this process will it be counted and the Criticism List will recognize it.
When Li Chengtao challenged Ji Shenfu, it was by killing the opponent's "Jianghu Walk" that he was qualified to challenge the governor. This is why Ji Shenfu was surrounded by heavy military protection at that time and still lost to the young man.
On the one hand, as a knight of the rivers and lakes, he naturally obeys the rules of the rivers and lakes. On the other hand, Ji Shenfu's chosen "walker of the rivers and lakes" was slaughtered. If he refuses to fight, his reputation in this life will be ruined.
By the way, Ji Shenfu's "Jianghu Xing" at that time was the leader of the Golden Snake Gang, the largest gang in Luoye City at that time, and he was also one of the seven top masters in Luoye County.
…
Li Chengtao glanced at the people in front of him, taking in the bald man in front of him and the expressions of the soldiers behind him. He raised his hand and pointed, and said in a deep voice:
"This person has studied swordsmanship with me for three years. Although he is not my disciple, his skills come from me. In two years, he will officially become my Li Chengtao's guide. If Mr. Ji really misses me, welcome the challenge."
Yi Xifeng looked at the young man's finger pointed at him in an understatement, and was stunned. After about a breath, when he felt the eyes all around him looking at him, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
"You're cheating! He's just a soy sauce man! How can you reason with this? Go and walk in your world. I haven't even entered the world yet. You are making it difficult for me to move forward in the world!"
Yi Xifeng couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm and calm, making it difficult for people to see the depth.
Because the fair boy understands that this so-called "walking in the world" is definitely not a good job. He had a certain understanding of the Criticism List by studying general arts organized by Yinren Village.
Every warrior on the list is a famous strong man in the world today. Not to mention the strength of the Dacheng state of chivalry. In the world of martial arts, he is a figure who can start a sect. However, not all leaders of sects can be on the Pingtian List, which has resulted in a dilemma of too many monks and too few people.
The Pingtian Ranking itself is an affirmation of the martial arts cultivation of warriors, and it is a benchmark recognized by the world. Every sect wants to have its strong men on the Pingtian Ranking. This is undoubtedly the best publicity for their sect.
This indirectly affected the entire sect's voice in the world and its attraction to high-quality disciples. Ultimately it affects the future development potential of the entire sect.
Therefore, if these "walkers in the arena" really enter the arena, they can fight step by step. They need to use their own strength to carve out their own arena.
Usually these martial arts giants will choose their favorite true disciples when they "walk in the world".
Thinking of this, Yi Xifeng couldn't help but complain: "After practicing swordsmanship with you for three years, I learned three moves! Are you planning to let me learn from Cheng Yaojin and know how to use three axes?"
However, the facts have already been established, and the fair boy can only pretend to be calm and try his best to hide his strength. At the very least, it makes people look powerful and scares away some "young people" who want to eat swan meat!
Li Chengtao saw the expression of the young man behind him and noticed through his inner strength that his back was already wet. The young man instantly understood the young man's plan, and then he smiled and said: "Of course, I am talking about two years later, because he is now It’s very weak, just in a state of power.”
"puff!"
The fair-skinned young man was like a deflated balloon, slumped on the ground, and his whole body became wilted.
Although Li Xintian on the side was wearing a mask, he still couldn't help laughing.
