The next day, February 2, the dragon raised its head.
It's sunny after the rain. It's a good weather.
Early in the morning, Zhao Mingyuan rushed to Purple Mountain by car.
Many people from the martial arts world also accompanied him, just to witness this unprecedented battle.
The battle at the top of the Forbidden City was very strict, and not many people saw that battle.
But in this battle on the Purple Gold Summit, even if you can't reach the top of the mountain, you may be able to catch a glimpse of a move halfway up the mountain, and it will be a worthwhile trip.
The journey was not uneventful.
Many people who had placed heavy bets and even bet their entire fortune on Ximen Chuixue's victory were now close to despair and could not help but take desperate risks, hoping to assassinate Zhao Mingyuan to turn things around.
Even if Zhao Mingyuan cannot be killed, it might be good to injure him a little or even cause him some interference.
Maybe this can affect the situation of the battle?
Therefore, there were constant shouts of killing along the way.
Similarly, the person who was betting on Zhao Mingyuan to win naturally took action to stop the assassin. After all, his life and fortune were at stake.
Therefore, there were very few people who could rush to Zhao Mingyuan's carriage. This was naturally solved by the experts brought by Zhao Mingyuan.
In fact, Zhao Mingyuan's carriage has built-in iron plates and is not afraid of even strong bows and crossbows. Therefore, these things outside did not cause any interference to him at all.
Even though there were screams and killings all the way outside the car window, and no one knew how many people died because of it, Zhao Mingyuan was still calm and sat in the carriage.
It was not until the foot of Zijin Mountain that the mountain road was steep and the carriage could not move. Only then did Zhao Mingyuan get off the carriage.
But instead of walking up the mountain, four people came over, carrying a light sedan, and Zhao Mingyuan sat in the sedan.
These four people all have deep internal strength and extraordinary light skills. Even when they carry Zhao Mingyuan up the mountain, their steps are as fast as flying and as if they are walking on flat ground.
But now, there are not many people who can follow behind.
During the continuous assassination battles along the way, many people were injured and fell behind.
Most of those left behind were strong, while some of those with weaker martial arts skills were injured or even dead.
Of course, most of them fled and did not dare to move forward.
Now there are only dozens of people behind who can keep up.
However, at this point, no one came back to assassinate him.
Everyone who is supposed to come has already come, and even more powerful masters may not be able to be invited.
Sure enough, everything went well on the way up the mountain.
Zhao Mingyuan reached the top of the mountain maintaining his peak condition.
But he found a white figure on the top of the mountain.
The white clothes, white face, and white sword are none other than Ximen Chuixue.
The others all retreated dozens of feet away, leaving space for Zhao Mingyuan and Ximen Chuixue.
"You're late." Ximen Chuixue said calmly.
The two of them had not agreed on a specific time, but they had agreed on the second day of February, so it was too late to tell them.
However, if Ximen Chuixue has been waiting for a long time, it will naturally be considered too late.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Sorry for keeping you waiting."
Ximen Chuixue suddenly asked: "Do you learn swordsmanship?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "I like swords."
Ximen Chuixue continued: "I heard that you also learn to use swords, spears, swords and halberds, as well as fists, palms and legs."
Everyone was quite surprised when they heard this. However, they had never heard that Zhao Mingyuan had such abilities. They had only heard that Zhao Mingyuan had superb swordsmanship.
Even people like Mu Daoren and Gongsun Lan, who had some friendship with Zhao Mingyuan, didn't know. They didn't expect Ximen Chuixue to know this.
However, I "heard" that Ximen Chuixue didn't have many friends. It should be said that he only had Lu Xiaofeng. Then what he called "hearing" was naturally what Lu Xiaofeng said.
In this case, it seems that this news is 80% true.
Although Lu Xiaofeng is indeed a bastard, his reputation is still quite good. Many of the people present were friends of Lu Xiaofeng.
Speaking of Lu Xiaofeng, why haven’t you seen him?
The people around looked around, but still couldn't find Lu Xiaofeng in the crowd.
Could it be that he knew that Ximen Chuixue would lose, so he couldn't bear to watch the battle.
No one knows why. However, it seemed that Lu Xiaofeng really didn't come.
Faced with this question, Zhao Mingyuan naturally nodded and said yes.
He was not a pure swordsman, and he had never denied this.
If that's the case, isn't it normal to learn other fists and weapons?
Seeing Zhao Mingyuan nodding in response, Ximen Chuixue seemed very disappointed and said, "You are very talented in kendo. Why don't you just keep walking on this road instead of looking around? Are other roads as beautiful as kendo?"
Obviously, Ximen Chuixue regretted that Zhao Mingyuan could not concentrate on kendo.
In response, Zhao Mingyuan just smiled but did not answer.
Ordinary people specialize in one thing because life is short, only thirty thousand days. If you don't specialize in one area, your time will be spread out. Even a genius can hardly achieve success in multiple fields. It is better to specialize in one and focus on nothing.
But Zhao Mingyuan is different.
He has enough time and energy to try all the roads that interest him, and even walk on some of them.
Perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is a waste of talent and goes astray.
But for Zhao Mingyuan, their view of him is nothing more than Xia Chong Yu Bing.
It's not that they are stupid, it's just that they have little knowledge and find it difficult to understand the choices of immortals.
To put it bluntly, even Zhao Mingyuan stopped practicing swordsmanship. Instead, he gave up swordsmanship and started practicing swordsmanship. Even if in the end he has no talent in swordsmanship and just wastes it for decades, so what?
Even if the way of swordsmanship fails in the future, it won't matter if he picks up the way of swordsmanship again.
He had enough capital to squander.
Although Zhao Mingyuan still looks like he is in his twenties, he has lived for several decades in total.
But to the Eternal One, he is still just a young boy, and it is still uncertain what his future will be like. It is better to try more while you are young. See what suits you better, this is better.
Maybe Zhao Mingyuan prefers other weapons, or is more talented in fists and feet?
No one can tell.
So, why limit yourself to kendo?
Moreover, whether it is eighteen kinds of weapons or any strange weapons, they are all extensions of the human body.
It's just a kind of martial arts.
As long as he devotes himself to martial arts and practices to the extreme, what difference does it make between using a sword and a sword?
Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan does not feel that he has any regrets for not specializing in swordsmanship.
Seeing that Zhao Mengyuan was just silent, he didn't say anything like sighing or feeling ashamed. Instead, he showed an expression that you didn't understand.
Ximen Chuixue was not angry at all.
Different road non-phase plan.
Seeing Zhao Mingyuan's attitude, Ximen Chuixue said no more.
He is not a talkative person.
Therefore, Ximen Chuixue did not mention this matter again, but instead pulled out the sword in his hand.
If it says February 2, it means February 2.
