After the drums sounded, the ancient Taoist man slowly lowered his hands, unsheathed his sword, and made a show of force.
The display of the starting hand during the weapons competition is equivalent to the hand-over salute in unarmed fighting. Seeing this situation, Yang Kai also drew his long sword and returned the salute with a display of force.
When the drum sound suddenly stopped, the old Taoist took the lead in making a move, stabbing Yang Kai's chest. Although the move was quite satisfactory, the sword was filled with spiritual energy.
Yang Kai had just been promoted to Mountain Violet, and his spiritual energy could be released outside the body. When he saw the deep purple spiritual energy lingering on the old Taoist sword, he immediately followed the same method, infusing the sword with spiritual energy and then slashed the old Taoist's neck.
As soon as Yang Kai made a move, everyone outside the court suddenly took a breath of cold air, because Yang Kai did not block the old sword that stabbed his chest, but adopted a lose-lose style of fighting, swinging the sword directly to the opponent's neck, If both sides don't change their moves, they will both perish in the blink of an eye.
Since Yang Kai didn't tell Chang Sheng how he would fight before going on stage, Chang Sheng didn't know what Yang Kai would do after he came on stage. However, Chang Sheng was not surprised by Yang Kai's style of play that hurt both sides. He must know Yang Kai's sword skills. Like his sword skills, they are all ordinary. If you compete with an experienced swordsman, you will undoubtedly use your own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths. The smartest way is to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses. If you want to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses, the prerequisite is to destroy the opponent's strength. Long sword, the purpose of Yang Kai's lose-lose style of play is not to die with the old Taoist, but to force the old Taoist to fight back to protect himself, and then take the opportunity to cut off the opponent's long sword.
Since he did not expect that Yang Kai would take the wrong direction with his sword, the old Taoist was quite passive at this time. He had two options at the moment. One was to force out his spiritual energy, force out his sword energy, and pierce Yang Kai's chest before Yang Kai's long sword cut off his neck. The second is to improvise temporarily and return to the sword to protect yourself.
However, from the perspective of the veteran, neither of these two options is considered a good idea. If he continues to attack, he is not sure that Yang Kai will die immediately after being pierced through the chest. To take a step back, even if Yang Kai dies immediately, he has already wielded the weapon. The power contained in the long sword will not disappear immediately, and the long sword will still continue to move forward. He is also unwilling to change his moves to protect himself, because once he moves back to protect himself, he will immediately be at a disadvantage. Next, Yang Kai is likely to seize on his unwillingness to suffer the same fate and frequently adopt a lose-lose style of play. , busy parrying.
People who are able to achieve great things have many things in common. One of them is the ability to assess the situation and make decisions decisively, while those who do nothing tend to look forward and backward, hesitate, and always want to take advantage of the advantages but not the disadvantages.
The old Taoist is a Taixuan cultivator. If he can cultivate spiritual energy to this level, his mind and perseverance must be sufficient. After weighing it eagerly, he immediately made the decision to fight back to protect himself. The reason is also very simple. There is still plenty of time, and there are many opportunities. There is no need to fight to the death with the other party as soon as you get on stage.
However, although the old Taoist had decided to change his moves to protect himself, he did not change his moves immediately. Instead, he tried his best to reach out and continue to thrust forward. The reason why the sword energy was not generated at the same time as the forward thrust was because once the sword energy was generated, it would be combined with the sword energy. The sword body is integrated into one, and subsequent moves will be more sluggish.
The old man chose to continue thrusting forward, which was essentially a test and competition. He wanted to test whether Yang Kai really had the courage to die with him. At the same time, he was also competing with Yang Kai to see who had more courage and who was bolder.
The old Taoist does not change his tactics, and Yang Kai does not change his tactics. In fact, Yang Kai is not sure what the old Taoist is thinking, but he knows that there is no turning back. If he does not change his tactics, he will definitely die. .
Ju Shan's cultivation and Tai Xuan's cultivation are both purple energy. Although there is not a thousand miles difference between the two, there is a step difference. Tai Xuan's reaction is still half an instant faster than that of Ju Shan's cultivation. Seeing that Yang Kai has missed it At the last moment of changing the move, there is no possibility of changing the move. The veteran can only passively change the move, shaking his wrist sideways and raising his sword to block.
Yang Kai had been waiting for the opponent to change his moves before, but after the opponent changed his moves, he suddenly became suspicious, because in his imagination, the old man should not raise his sword to block, but would only withdraw his sword and withdraw. The reason why he had this The idea is that the Gongbu weapon he is holding is an old-fashioned type. Anyone with a little knowledge can see that it is a magic weapon. The consequence of rashly blocking with the sword is likely to be that the long sword and the neck are all chopped off by Gongbu. break.
However, there is no room for Yang Kai to think too much in the electric light and flint. At this time, the only thing he can do is to pour as much spiritual energy into the sword as possible to ensure that Gongbu can destroy everything and be invincible to those who stand in his way.
Accompanied by a harsh and crisp sound, the two of them turned around at the same time and passed each other.
When the two of them turned around and stood facing each other, the expressions on their faces were surprisingly similar. They both had wide eyes and a look of disbelief on their faces. The reason for this expression was because the swords in their hands had both been broken. , now all the swords in hand are broken.
Since neither of them expected that their weapons would break beforehand, the sudden turn of events shocked the two of them, and neither of them could attack immediately when they faced each other head-on.
The crisp sound of the sword tip falling to the ground was heard at the same time as the exclamations of everyone outside the venue. Only then did the two of them come back to their senses. Yang Kai immediately threw away the broken sword and attacked with his bare hands, while the old Taoist waved the broken sword, Take action to deal with it.
The sword used by Yang Kai was a famous sword through the ages. He had gone through many bloody battles with Yang Kai before, but it suddenly broke today. Changsheng and others all felt sorry for Yang Kai. They did not expect that the sword used by this veteran looked ordinary. , but they are both magical weapons like Gongbu. However, if you think about it carefully for thousands of years, there must be many magical weapons that have survived in the world, but not all of them are found in history books and are popular among people.
Although the long swords of the two men were all broken, Chang Sheng knew that Yang Kai had the upper hand at this time, because the old Taoist did not abandon the broken sword immediately after the long sword was broken, which shows that this person is used to using swords on weekdays, and people Your energy is limited. A person who has been immersed in swordsmanship all year round will find it difficult to make achievements in other skills. And Yang Kai's trump card is the Zhoutian Divine Skill, and his swordsmanship is very sparse. He has lost his shortcomings, and the enemy has lost his strong points. This first round is like Tian Ji's horse racing, using a rogue horse to kill the opponent's good horse.
Although Lao Dao still had the broken sword in his hand, he had no advantage at all. The weight and length of the broken long sword were completely different from before, and it was no longer easy to use. However, after two rounds, Lao Dao discovered that The Broken Sword was a big drag on him, so he had no choice but to abandon the Broken Sword and fight Yang Kai with his bare hands.
What surprised Chang Sheng was that the old Taoist's boxing and kicking skills were also very good. He showed no disadvantage at all in a close fight with Yang Kai. On the contrary, he moved around casually, dealt with it calmly, and seemed to have more strength.
After thinking about it, Changsheng figured out the reason. This old Taoist had a Taixuan cultivation level. At this point, he no longer had many opponents. Even if he occasionally fought with others, he rarely used weapons. Furthermore, this person is over seventy years old. Even if he practices swordsmanship more than fists and kicks on weekdays, after so many years, his fists and kicks must have become more developed.
What Chang Sheng is best at is close combat, and he quickly discovered that the veteran on the stage seemed to be showing mercy all the time, and always seemed to fail to do his best in offensive and defensive responses. This discovery made Chang Sheng secretly pinch Yang Kai. Khan, although Yang Kai's boxing and kicking skills are also very powerful, if he fights for a long time, he may not be an experienced opponent.
However, Chang Sheng soon discovered that the truth was not what he imagined, and the old Taoist did not show mercy to Yang Kai. The reason why he could not use his fist and kick skills to the extreme was because the old Taoist was restless and unbalanced.
At first, Changsheng didn't understand why Lao Dao was uneasy. It wasn't until he discovered that Lao Dao glanced at his broken sword with great regret between attacks and defenses that he suddenly realized that it turned out that Lao Dao was reluctant to part with his broken sword.
Although both of them used magical weapons, and both were damaged, the impact of losing the weapons on their mentality was completely different. It had only been a few years since Yang Kai obtained the work cloth, and the sword used by the old Taoist had probably followed him. It has been a part of his life for most of his life.
It is said that clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old, but this is not true. No matter what, old is good. The longer you stay with someone, the harder it is to let go.
The loss of weapons severely dampened the spirit of the old Taoist, but his mind was not affected. Although he used spiritual energy to help his fists and feet, his fighting style was quite conservative. He was a Taixuan cultivator, while Yang Kai only had a mountain-based cultivation. The two of them Fighting with fists and kicks infused with spiritual energy would undoubtedly be disadvantageous to Yang Kai.
Yang Kai noticed that the old Taoist wanted to use up all his spiritual energy but did not rush to attack. The reason was also very simple. After he was promoted to purple energy, he could absorb the other party's spiritual energy without touching the other party. What the other party was doing was exactly what he wanted to do. of……
