The fastest sword in the world is, to a certain extent, the title closest to "the best sword in the world".
Because the strongest swordsman ultimately pursues "speed". The faster your sword is, the faster you can chop off your opponent's head.
Of course, this Hero Li is not the "best swordsman in the world" after all, because there are other people who can compete with him through various factors in swordsmanship.
But even so, it is a recognized fact in the world that his swordsmanship has reached the advanced level. With this sharp sword, he is enough to rank among the top masters in the world.
Wei Kui would never give up this opportunity. In every sense, he would try to challenge this top master.
But it doesn’t mean that if you want to challenge others, others must rise to the challenge. There are many ways to do this.
There are naturally rules in the world. Some rules are on the table, while others are hidden under the table. However, whether they are explicit or implicit rules, they are intended to restrict all kinds of deviant behavior.
For example, "seniority ranking" or similar phenomena will occur more or less in any industry. From an objective point of view, this is not a good behavior, but it cannot be denied that it is used in certain industries. In this situation, it still has a positive effect.
Take Wei Kui's current desire to challenge Daxia Li as an example. The gap in martial arts between the two is likely to be far smaller than the gap in their status in the world. It is true that Wei Kui has become famous this year and is somewhat famous within a certain range. But to put it bluntly, in the eyes of the public, there is still no one like you. At most, you are just someone who has done some heroic things. He is a minor character; but Daxia Li does nothing all year round. He goes to various sects every day to eat and drink, and no one even sits at the table with him. He is also known as "the fastest knife in the world."
This description is not meant to disparage either Wei Kui or Li Daxia, but to objectively describe the actual seniority gap between the two from a third party's perspective.
Then again, there is no shortage of masters with similar status to Li Daxia in the world, and there will only be more guys who want to take advantage of these masters. Which of those fledgling boys has not thought about becoming famous in one fell swoop? And the best shortcut to becoming famous is to defeat a well-known master in the world.
The problem actually lies here. If these famous martial arts masters and masters were challenged, would they accept the move or not? If you don't accept the move, you will inevitably be criticized as "cowardly", "cherishing your life", and "not worthy of your reputation". If you accept the move - will you do anything else that day? Just sit at the door and wait for a group of people to line up to compete with you in the ring.
Don't think this is an exaggeration. You must know that there is a saying that "barefoot people are not afraid of those wearing shoes." The most indispensable thing in the world is barefoot people. If you really deserve it if anyone challenges you, then don't say it. You are a member of the martial arts world. Even the farmers, blacksmiths, and vegetable sellers at the foot of the martial arts mountain all want to "try it out" with you. There is no possibility of losing, but it is really annoying.
In addition to preventing those with the dream of "lower to overcome superior" from throwing random punches and "annoying" the master to death, the unspoken rules about challenges also play a considerable role in "maintaining the balance of the martial arts" - in In that era when the martial arts world had just started and there were not so many rules to restrict it, whether you were a hero or a street fighter, you would inevitably be aggressive because of some unnecessary factors, especially "face." The result is also obvious. The glory of martial arts in the Central Plains was almost aborted because of the decline of the population. The martial artists who have come from the era of blood and tears have also clearly realized one thing - some fights do not have to be fought. Yes, even if the fight is impossible, don't risk your life.
As for the Jianghu...it is what it loves. In short, it cannot just fight and kill, because for most people, nothing in the world is more important than "living".
However, some people are not the "majority of people", such as Wei Kui and Li Daxia, who have found a spacious venue to prepare for a competition and are looking at each other.
For Wei Kui, "power" is far more important than staying alive, and "revenge" should also count.
For Hero Li, "becoming a hero" is far more important than living.
Few people know that "Daxia Li" is not just a title, but his real name. Of course, this funny-sounding name was definitely not given to him by his parents, but he has been called that since he became famous.
Li Sui, known as "Sick Cat" by people in the world.
Li Sui was born into an Orion family. He has been frail and sick since he was born, and it was life-threatening at one time. In desperation, his parents took him and found the most powerful person within their power, that is, the "sick man" of the previous generation. cat".
Some people may find it strange that an ordinary hunter knows such a master as Sick Cat, but everyone encounters trouble sometimes. Sick Cat was once saved by this hunter named Li, so he also wanted to save this one. child.
The sick cat found a good doctor to treat Li Sui's illness. In order to strengthen his physique, he accepted him as his disciple and taught him martial arts. Finally, on his deathbed, he passed on the nickname "sick cat" to only ten people. Seven-year-old Li Sui can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous person.
In fact, given the strength of the previous generation of Sick Cat, there are quite a few people who admire him as a disciple. Even if he is unwilling to accept a disciple, he can still pass on the influential title of "Sick Cat" to other talented people. , but he insisted on leaving it to this child who was not only young but also had a talent for martial arts that was not outstanding among his peers.
Because he saw in Li Sui a spirit that had been lost for a long time in the world, a spirit that should have existed - chivalry.
He can face the siege of more than a dozen people alone in order to stand up for his friends. He can use the remaining change on his body to buy some biscuits and distribute them to the beggars begging along the street. He can be filled with righteous indignation and seek justice for the people who have been oppressed by bullies. He can laugh away his grudges with people he has had conflicts with...
Sick Mao believes that this child will become a truly great person in the future, and passing on the title of Sick Mao to him will be of profound significance to both master and disciple.
Li Sui did not live up to his master's expectations. "The fastest sword in the world" is proof of his efforts.
In fact, considering his identity as Daxia Li, he can completely refuse, or even refuse Wei Kui's rude request very forcefully. However, it can be seen from his growth process that this person is a very "heroic" type. It may even seem a bit weird to others.
For example, when he agreed to accept Wei Kui's contest, his words were: "A real man should accept all challenges!"
Hmm... How should I put it? Such words and such tone really don't seem to come from the mouth of a mature man in his forties.
When Li Sui took out his knife from the baggage, Wei Kui's eyes changed instantly.
The sword was extremely ordinary in appearance, only one and a half feet long, but the strong murderous aura emanating from its blade could not be concealed.
Only then did Wei Kui realize that the bloody aura he felt did not come from Li Sui, but from the short sword he wore.
"Your knife..." Wei Kui frowned. The knife gave him a terrifying yet familiar feeling.
"In addition to passing on this name, the 'sick cats' of the past generations will also award this knife to future generations. It can be said that this knife is a symbol of sick cats..." Li Sui didn't know what Wei Kui wanted. What to say, but he still explained patiently.
"Young man, I can tell from your size and momentum that you are very strong, and your desire to win and fighting spirit are even better, so I want to tell you in advance... I I won't hold back." Li Sui politely informed Wei Kui before drawing the blade at him: "Of course, it's still unfair if you use your fists and I use the knife, so I'll try my best to avoid getting you hurt."
"Haha... It doesn't matter. There is nothing absolutely fair in this world." Wei laughed twice.
"That's right." Li Sui nodded, approving of Wei Kui's words, and then his face suddenly changed, becoming very fanatical: "You look like a rough man, but you are quite sensible... Then Just let you use all your strength and then be defeated by me without any regrets!"
It was too late to say, but it was too soon. Just when Li Sui finished speaking, his figure had disappeared from Wei Kui's sight.
The fastest sword in the world, of course, is not only fast with his sword skills. If his body skills are not fast enough, then how can his sword skills become faster?
Although Wei Kui, who had learned from Zhao Xian that Li Daxia was very skilled, was fully prepared and did not take it lightly at all, he was still overwhelmed by this sword attack.
"A thousand miles in a day!" I don't know whether he was reminding Wei Kui or it was because of his own personality, but Li Sui shouted the name of the move passionately.
"Catch it." Wei Kui sensed the strong and unavoidable blood energy when the dagger was close at hand. He relied on his keen sense of smell and excellent reaction ability to grab Li Sui's hand. wrist.
"Did you really catch it?" But the next moment, Li Sui responded to Wei Kui in front of him.
A slight, tearing pain came from Wei Kui's side. Although his pain tolerance was extremely strong, this feeling had no effect on his movements at all, but the wound was real.
Wei collapsed...blood gushed out like a fountain.
