Chapter 228 A competition, Golden Blade Academy Library

Golden Blade Academy, martial arts training ground.

Hearing that the senior brother was going to compete with a young master who came to visit, almost all the disciples from the Golden Sword Academy came.

People stood in the distance very consciously and talked quietly.

"Is that guy the one who will compete with Senior Brother Wang later? He looks so young." Someone exclaimed.

"It looks good, but it's probably just an embroidered pillow. It's not useful," someone said with disdain.

But some people took this battle very seriously.

Yu Dao stood upstairs, staring at the martial arts training ground in the distance, and then chuckled: "Old Yan, do you think Tiancheng can defeat this Zhao Ya?"

Yan Ruize barely hesitated, "Then you still need to ask. Tiancheng's sword skills are now as good as those of you and me. It is estimated that apart from the master of the Golden Sword Academy, there are not many elders who can be his opponent. Although this Zhao Ya has some strength, he will never be Tiancheng's opponent."

"I don't think this Zhao Ya will be defeated so easily." Yu Dao said.

Both of them were elders of the Golden Sword Academy. After hearing that someone came to ask Wang Tiancheng for advice on sword skills, they all dropped what they were doing and came to watch the fun.

"Why?" Yan Ruize asked in surprise.

He knew that Yu Dao would never act without aim.

"Tiancheng once mentioned this Zhao Ya to me. In his words, this boy's talent in swordsmanship and martial arts is so high that it is rarely seen in the world. He was able to advance to the Half-step Five level by himself in a remote village like Yunxiao County. The environment shows its strong potential." Yu Dao said in a deep voice.

"So what? No matter how powerful he is, he is only half a step into the fifth realm. Tiancheng has advanced to the fifth realm as early as two years ago. The gap is incalculable. So I still feel that this Zhao Ya has no chance of winning. At most, he will be in the fifth realm. You will be defeated in thirty moves." Yan Ruize said confidently.

"If you don't believe it, we can make a bet. If you lose..."

"Shh, don't talk, let's start!" Yu Dao said suddenly.

Yan Ruize also quickly looked up.

At the same time, Zhao Ya and Wang Tiancheng stood opposite each other on the martial arts training ground.

Wang Tiancheng held a long sword across his chest and said softly: "This sword is called Tempering Shadow. It is a famous sword that has been passed down by the Golden Sword Academy for decades. I was only given this sword after I attained the Four Realms." , has been with me for seven or eight years now."

"The Meteor Iron Sword has no origin or name. It's just that it has been used for a long time and has become more comfortable." Zhao Ya said.

Wang Tiancheng smiled and said, "It's just a smooth word. You must know that what swordsmanship pursues is smoothness and smoothness."

Speaking of this, Wang Tiancheng suddenly looked solemn, "I have three major sword techniques in the Golden Sword Academy, twenty-one sword moves, and countless other sword techniques that have not been sorted out. The one I practice is the Duankong Sword."

"This Sky-Breaking Knife specializes in striking at the gaps between the opponent's moves and cuts them off with skill, hence its name. So Junior Brother Zhao, please be careful later."

"What I practice is the violent wind sword technique. It's not famous. It's just one word, quick!"

Introducing your weapons and techniques before a competition is a sign of respect for your opponent. This etiquette has been around for a long time, but few people follow it these days.

However, Zhao Ya always felt that this kind of etiquette came purely from the competition in the martial arts arena. Who would be stupid enough to declare their family name in a real battle.

If he had the time, he would have killed his opponent long ago.

But since Wang Tiancheng has done this, Zhao Ya has no choice but to follow patiently.

At this time, Wang Tiancheng finally nodded, and then pointed the tip of the knife at Zhao Ya opposite him, "Junior Brother Zhao, take action!"

"excuse me!"

Zhao Ya couldn't hold himself back for a long time, so after hearing what Wang Tiancheng said, he didn't refuse and rushed forward in a flash. He was in the air and the knife had already been chopped down.

Now Zhao Ya's sword skills have reached the point where he knows everything from heart to heart.

This sword condensed Zhao Ya's entire understanding of the Guangfeng Sword Technique. As soon as the sword was released, Wang Tiancheng's eyes lit up.

"Good sword skills!"

Back in Yunxiao County, Wang Tiancheng had seen Zhao Ya perform the Guangfeng Sword Technique, but at that time, Zhao Ya's understanding of the sword technique was still relatively immature and far from mature as it is now.

While praising him, Wang Tiancheng's reaction was not unpleasant.

The shadow-tempering knife in his hand tilted, and with a perfect timing, he met the meteorite iron knife struck by Zhao Ya.

when.

There was a crisp sound of gold and iron, and Zhao Ya felt the meteorite sword in his hand suddenly shake, and almost flew out of his hand.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the chief of the Golden Sword Academy.

This one-handed sky-breaking sword is truly worthy of its reputation.

Wang Tiancheng's seemingly simple sword strike just now was actually very learned.

His blow hit the weakest point of Zhao Ya's sword, so it had this effect.

This is easy to say, but in fact it is extremely difficult.

Especially since it happened in a fleeting period of time, it can be seen that Wang Tiancheng's attainments in swordsmanship have reached an extremely terrifying level.

However, although Zhao Ya was frightened, he swung the knife in his hand away, and then struck at Wang Tiancheng again like a breeze blowing across his face.

These sword moves seemed gentle and weak, but Wang Tiancheng did not dare to neglect them at all.

Because only by being there can you deeply understand how terrifying these seemingly gentle sword lights are.

Dang Dang Dang!

Zhao Ya and Wang Tiancheng exchanged more than a dozen moves in the continuous clashes, which sounded like iron strikes.

Suddenly.

The two of them separated and stopped.

Wang Tiancheng still pointed the Shadow Tempering Sword diagonally at Zhao Ya, and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhao, if your Guangfeng Sword Technique only stops here, then you will be defeated."

This is not Wang Tiancheng's boasting.

Wang Tiancheng's swords struck the weakest part of Zhao Ya's defense against the dozens of swords he just dealt with, and he easily broke through his sword moves.

Zhao Ya smiled when he heard this, "What a Sky-Breaking Sword, it is indeed extraordinary, but just now it was just a test, please be careful next time, Senior Brother Wang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of sword light suddenly exploded from Zhao Ya's hand, and then attacked Wang Tiancheng on the opposite side like a violent storm.

The disciples watching on the martial arts field were limited by their own strength and could not see the power of this move.

But Yu Dao and Yan Ruize, who were watching the battle upstairs in the distance, changed their expressions.

"What a powerful swordsmanship!" Yan Ruize exclaimed.

"I know that the violent wind sword technique is just a sword technique used by some Jianghu escorts to protect themselves. It is not a profound martial arts. I didn't expect that this young man would practice it to such an extent. It seems that what Tiancheng said is not an exaggeration!" Yu Dao was also filled with emotion.

Just now, he thought that Zhao Ya would be defeated soon, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Because the dozen or so moves Zhao Ya used before were indeed good, but they were not outstanding.

If we stop there, we will definitely fail.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Ya would give himself a surprise right after.

Facing the sword light coming from all directions, Wang Tiancheng looked solemn and did not dare to slack off at all.

The shadow-tempered sword in his hand also transformed into shadows, and faced Zhao Ya's sword moves.

This time there was no longer the sound of gold and iron clashing, replaced by the sharp friction sound of blades cutting against each other.

Most people's eyes can no longer keep up with the changes in sword moves.

In their eyes, the swords in the hands of Zhao Ya and Wang Tiancheng seemed to no longer exist. Only the occasional sparks proved that the two were still competing with each other.

Suddenly.

Stop the attack and stop the sword.

Zhao Ya and Wang Tiancheng stood opposite each other, with the knives in their hands pointing forward, and the tips of the knives were facing each other, as if they were cast together.

The two looked at each other, smiled suddenly, and then sheathed their knives together.

"Good sword skills!" Zhao Ya admired sincerely.

"I should be the one to say this. After all, you have reached this point by relying on an ordinary sword technique. In comparison, my talent is far inferior to yours." Wang Tiancheng sighed to himself.

He knew very well that if Zhao Ya hadn't been slightly inferior in sword moves just now, he would have been defeated.

Even so, he was only tied with Zhao Ya.

How could this not make him sigh.

When they heard what he said, the surrounding disciples of the Golden Sword Academy were in an uproar.

"Oh my god, am I right? Senior Brother Wang lost?"

"No, it should have been a draw."

"Hey, is this Zhao Ya so powerful? What is his background?"

Amidst the discussion, a burst of laughter was suddenly heard from a distance, and then Yu Dao and Yan Ruize were seen flying in hand in hand.

After landing in the field, these Golden Sword Academy disciples hurriedly saluted.

"I've met the two elders!"

But they didn't even look at these people, and came straight to Zhao Ya and Wang Tiancheng.

Wang Tiancheng cupped his fists and saluted.

"Uncle Yu, Uncle Yan!"

Wang Tiancheng studied under the current head of the Golden Sword Academy, so he called the two elders Dao and Yan Ruize his uncle.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Ya knew that the two middle-aged men, one fat and one thin, should be the elders of the Golden Sword Academy, so he also cupped his fists and saluted.

The two nodded, and then Yu Dao smiled and said: "We all saw the battle upstairs. I have to say that you young people now are much better than us back then. This battle was really exciting."

"Yes, Tiancheng, your sword skills have improved a lot. At the same time, this little brother Zhao is also a genius, which is simply breathtaking." Yan Ruize also sighed repeatedly.

"You two are so complimentary!" Zhao Ya said.

"Hahaha, we are all martial arts practitioners. If you are good, you are good, and if you are not good, you are bad. What is there to be so modest about? Come on, let's talk in the room!" Yu Dao said with a smile.

This time they came to the reception room in the Golden Sword Courtyard that was specially used to entertain first-class distinguished guests such as elders.

Not to mention refreshments, there is even dried meat to replenish qi and blood.

Zhao Ya was not polite, picked up one and put it in his mouth. He felt that it was no less than black dragon meat jerky.

This piece of dried meat alone is worth at least a hundred taels of gold, which shows how deep the foundation of the Golden Blade Academy is.

After a long talk, Yu Dao asked: "Brother Zhao, just now Tiancheng told me that you came here because your sword skills have reached a bottleneck, so you want to see the sword skills of our Golden Sword Academy and learn from each other's strengths. Use this to break through?"

Zhao Ya nodded, "That's what I meant!"

But soon Zhao Ya added: "But don't get me wrong, I just want to learn from each other and hone myself in the way of making friends with martial arts. I definitely don't covet your sword skills."

In the world of martial arts, it is taboo to covet other martial arts schools.

Zhao Ya naturally understands this truth.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhao Ya's words, Yu Dao and Yan Ruize looked at each other and immediately started laughing.

"Brother Zhao, you're welcome. Our Golden Blade Academy is not that stingy."

"If Brother Zhao is willing, you can come to the library of our Golden Sword Academy. There are various sword skills in our collection, which should be helpful to you."

Zhao Ya was stunned when he heard this.

He never imagined that the two elders of the Golden Sword Academy would say this.

This favor is really too great.

It can be said that for ordinary sects, unless they are the core disciples of the sect, they will never be allowed to enter such an important place as the library.

And as an outsider, I was actually allowed to enter and watch. What a great honor it was.

"Thank you so much!" Zhao Ya thanked him sincerely.

Yu Dao waved his hand, "Don't be too busy thanking us, we have conditions."

"Of course, as long as I can do it, it doesn't matter!"

Of course, Zhao Ya would not think that someone would let him see the sect's collection of books for no reason, so he was not surprised when he heard that Yu Dao said there were conditions.

"Actually, this condition is not difficult, and it couldn't be easier for you. As long as you are willing to write down your understanding of the Guangfeng Sword Technique and leave it in our Golden Sword Academy, then the library of our Golden Sword Academy will be Always open to you!”
