Xia Huai immediately rescued Lu Ping, and Lu Jing on the other side also took action in time to hold down Cheng Guan, allowing everyone in Si Tianjian to successfully pass the test without being controlled by Ye Crow.
But their troubles had just begun.
Before Cheng Guan could wipe off the remaining alcohol on his face, he saw three bearded dwarfs suddenly jumping out and yelling, "No, we can't stand it any longer. How can anyone bully others like this!"
While they were talking, they each took out an iron ring from their arms, grabbed the head and tail of the iron ring with both hands, and with a squeaking sound in their mouths, they actually grabbed another iron ring out of thin air.
Then the same trick was repeated, turning the two iron rings into four, the four into eight, and the eight into sixteen.
Then he grabbed two iron rings casually, and with a slight touch, the edge of one of the iron rings passed through the edge of the other iron ring, and they fit together, eventually forming three chains. , rushed towards Lu Jing and others and threw them over!
The chain looked astonishingly powerful, and when it was swung, it looked like three angry dragons tumbling over the river.
However, seeing this situation, an academy disciple immediately stepped forward!
Since he didn't have a suitable weapon at hand, he directly grabbed his desk and faced the three iron ropes. The moment the desk and the iron ropes intersected, the academy disciple spat out his inner strength.
The three menacing and angry dragons immediately began to retreat, and were about to fly back to their master's hands. However, the next moment, the three dwarfs suddenly flicked their wrists, causing the three chains to merge into one and embed themselves into each other. Set and turn into a giant dragon.
And they combined the strength of the three of them to withstand the internal energy coming from the other end of the chain, and they fought with the academy disciple, and for a moment they were evenly matched.
The three people's actions were like some kind of signal, making other people around them get ready to take action.
Those people were not completely deceived by Ye Crow and wanted to seek justice. Most of them had the same idea as Qi Xiu before and wanted to take this opportunity to show off their skills in front of Zhu Jie.
After all, the reason why they entered the palace was nothing more than glory and wealth.
However, Qi Xiu's previous experience also sounded the alarm for them, making them realize that the group of people in front of them were not soft persimmons who could be manipulated by others. If they failed to step on this stepping stone, they might fall into the abyss.
That's why they chose to stand still until the three dwarfs faced off against the academy disciple, making them realize that not all the eight people in Si Tianjian were as strong as Lu Ping.
So it didn't take long before someone couldn't help but take action. He grabbed the wine bottle on the table, poured half a mouthful of wine into his throat, and then spurted it out.
After the wine left his lips, it turned into a sharp arrow and shot towards the academy disciple.
But the academy disciple reacted very quickly and got out of the banquet in time, taking half a step back to avoid the wine arrow.
Then he stepped a little further, turned back like a flying swallow, and punched the man in the chest.
He was quite confident in his Qing Gong. Among the disciples of the academy, except for Lu Jing and a few core disciples from top sects, no one could beat him in Qing Gong.
However, what he didn't expect was that when the man saw him attacking, he didn't dodge or dodge. Instead, he pulled out a rope and hurriedly threw it into the air. Then something incredible happened.
The rope did not fall, but became a straight line, going straight upwards, and the man, like a monkey, used his hands and feet to climb up the roof along the rope.
The academy disciple who saw this was also stunned.
Except for the three dwarfs and the people playing with the rope, everyone else in the palace also began to show their special abilities at this moment, but fortunately, most of these people used martial arts combined with some tricks.
At first glance, it is indeed quite bluffing, and you may be injured if you are not careful. However, their tricks are not as exaggerated as those of Donghua's real masters and disciples, especially the academy disciples who have magic to help them. Once they get serious, they will not pass. After a while, those foreigners who wanted to take advantage of the situation began to retreat.
Lu Ping alone, with the lightening technique and a dust operation, beat more than a dozen opponents to the point of crying.
The other academy disciples also regained the upper hand after some trials.
Seeing this scene, Huo Xingsun's hands also became itchy, he laughed strangely, and rushed towards Cheng Guan, but after running a few steps, he suddenly stopped again, and then retracted his head.
However, it was still a step slower after all, or in other words, in front of that palm, the movements of most people in this world would slow down.
Yan Yun's palm looked familiar to Lu Jing. It was clearly the Yunshui Jingci Pavilion's secret skill of Yunxiao Thunder Palm that the girl had used during their previous sparring match.
When the palm is moved, it is like a thunderous dragon descending from the sky, coming and going without a trace, making it impossible for people to avoid it!
At the beginning, even Lu Jing could only choose to bear it when faced with this set of martial arts, let alone Huo Xingsun.
His neck had just shrunk halfway, and Yan Jun's palm had already touched the top of his head. However, there was no deep hatred between the two parties, and Yan Jun did not make a killing move. This palm probably only used less than three successes.
However, when it landed on the top of Huo Xingsun's head, it seemed that there was no obstacle, and it easily passed through Huo Xingsun's skull, and then smashed half of the latter's head.
However, brains and blood did not burst out of his broken half of the head. Instead, there was a ball of flame.
If Yan Yun hadn't seen something wrong and pulled her hand away in time, her palms would have been burned by the flames, just like the guard before.
And when she took her hand back, Huo Xingsun's half of his head returned to its original state, looking no different from before.
Then he grinned at Yan Yun and said, "Your martial arts are very strong. You are probably the strongest among all the people I have met. Unfortunately, you still can't kill me, because no one can kill a ball of flame. Anyone who tries to kill me can't kill me." Anyone who attacks the flames will eventually be swallowed up by the flames..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a flying jar.
When Huo Xingsun saw this, he did not retreat. He confidently transformed his body into flame form again and faced him directly.
However, the jar did not hit him, but exploded in advance just one step in front of him.
Then the wine contained in it poured directly on his body.
The alcohol content of drinks in this era was very low and not flammable, and it extinguished most of the flames on his body in an instant.
Huo Xingsun let out a scream, and his whole body shrank visibly to the naked eye. And because the flames became smaller, he could not change back to his previous human form, so he hurriedly ran away.
But as soon as he took a step forward, Yan Yun's Thunder Palm came again, and this time Yan Yun used at least 80% of his power. The strong palm wind directly blew away the flames, not only protecting his palm. , and forced Huo Xingsun to retreat.
Then Yan Yun did not rush to take action again, but rushed in the direction of Lu Jing and nodded first, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."
