Chapter 231 Face to Face (First update please vote)
If you are stronger than your opponent, it is not difficult to win the battle. What is difficult is that you have to take into account the opponent's face. What is even more difficult is to use your own moves to stimulate the opponent's potential and let him use his martial arts to the fullest. In the end, he will only be defeated by his old body. He was exhausted and defeated.
To achieve this, one must have vision, martial arts, and a broad mind. His understanding of the changes in moves is second to none. Every sword strike must be unimaginably accurate. It must be stronger than the sword that defeated Luo Youfeng!
Although that sword possessed the essence of swordsmanship, it was as fast as thunder, and it set a trap between movement and stillness to lure people into the trap. It was indeed a masterpiece of swordsmanship, but it was not as breathtaking as the previous twenty-eight swordsmanship.
Everyone present recalled the battle between Meng Qi and Jin Jinxian just now. The more they thought about it, the more wonderful it became. It was like a feast of swordsmanship and swordsmanship.
And they did not despise Jin Jinxian. Although he was so polite to the Thunder Sword Monk, it seemed that his strength was quite different, but his internal strength and aura were clearly revealed. He was indeed old and frail, and he did lose honorably. Twenty-eight swords were struck, and no one could guess how many swords Jin Jinxian could have resisted if the Thunder Sword Mad Monk had not done this.
Since they couldn't guess, everyone just carried them in sedan chairs. At any rate, the owner of the gold hall was a famous person in Yedu.
As for the Thunder Sword Crazy Monk in the past, Su Meng, the current Sword Crazy Monk, has become unfathomable in the eyes of everyone.
He hasn't used any real moves on location yet!
The names of the masters on the list of people are well-deserved, and there are no deceitful people under the great reputation!
At this moment, Meng Qi raised his hand and saluted Wang Zai to thank him for his fair and objective explanation. Then he said loudly to the private room where the Huang family was: "I have heard the name of Yedu's 'Luohua Gongzi' for a long time, and I admire you very much. Please feel free to teach me tomorrow."
Huang Zishi, the "Lord of the Falling Flowers", understood the true meaning of Yedu Huang's "Flying Clouds and Falling Heroes Technique" and mastered an outdoor palm technique. Moreover, the "Flying Clouds and Falling Heroes Technique" was close to success, and he was hailed as the most promising rookie in Huanzhou. Meng Qi, one of the three people on the list, did not seem to be "bullying the small" by challenging him. It was taken for granted by everyone. They were eager to try, and wanted to see how big the gap was between the promising list and the real list. , or it could be said that Mr. Luohua already has the strength to make the list, but he just hasn’t had the chance yet...
In the private room, the old man surnamed Huang became quite embarrassed after listening to Wang Zai's explanation. As an external deacon, he relied on years of hard work to become the Nine Apertures. It was inevitable that he would lose his eyesight for the advanced swordsmanship and swordsmanship. Now Wang Zai Zai said it in public, which really embarrassed himself in front of the younger members of the family.
When Meng Qi opened his mouth to challenge Huang Zishi, his face turned completely livid. According to Wang Zai, the Thunder Sword Mad Monk was definitely stronger than his nephew. It was not a shortcut or opportunity to get on the list!
Huang Zushi's expression changed slightly, he opened his folding fan, and said with a slight smile: "I am very happy to be able to fight against Dao Kuang. I will definitely go to the appointment at this time tomorrow."
He was shocked by Meng Qi's strength. For a person of Huang Zishi's level, who doesn't have any confidence in himself? He has the Ananda Pojie Sword, he has "Luo Hua Liu Shui", he has sword skills that can be called everyone, and his " The "Feixia Luoying Gong" was not practiced in vain. As long as he didn't attract the sky thunder, he might not be able to fight.
How can a martial artist lose confidence when their strength is not so different?
Hehe, after the two competitions just now, people have finally taken my current nickname seriously... The thoughts in Meng Qi's heart are not understandable by ordinary people. If Huang Zishi knew about it, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. He would increase his momentum and accept the challenge. His words were neither humble nor arrogant, but he only grasped the word "sword mad" to express his self-confidence!
Meng Qi secretly laughed, and with a little movement of his right foot, he flew directly into the room where he was. The movement he used was similar to when he jumped down, but in the eyes of martial arts people, it was completely different. Before, he was shaped like a roc, with a mighty momentum. Now he is hiding secrets and his body skills are outstanding.
Gu Xiaosang stood by the window, holding his cheeks with his hands, his face slightly red, and his eyes were flowing: "Master, you were really like a master just now!"
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
"Who?" Meng Qi walked back to his seat and asked in a deep voice.
In my spiritual sense and senses, the outside is blurry and distorted.
"Kong Yu, the leader of Qingshou Catcher in Yedu, together with Wang Ce and Wang Zai of Zhoujun Wang clan, Du Shaobai and Qi Zhengyan of Huanhua Sword Sect, came to visit Su Shaoxia." A rich voice sounded outside the door.
This is what it should be... Meng Qi nodded slightly and motioned for Gu Xiaosang to open the door.
Previously, the challenge was about to begin, so it was inconvenient for everyone to interrupt. Now that the competition is over, as a landlord, you have to greet the "dragon crossing the river".
Gu Xiaosang walked lightly, with a smile on her face, like a competent maid, she opened the door and bowed with her hands folded.
Kong Yu is a middle-aged man with a white-faced scholar look, wearing a dark red brocade robe with six doors, a green ribbon tied around his waist, and a light green official seal hanging on it.
He has a capable temperament and a sense of calmness and restraint. He is accompanied by Meng Qi's "acquaintances" such as Wang Ce, Wang Zai, Qi Zhengyan, Shan Xiumei, and an old servant of the Wang family. The only one he has never met is the deacon of the Huanhua Sword Sect. Du Shaobai is about thirty years old. He wears a mysterious robe with big sleeves, a long beard, a bun with a hairpin, and a flamboyant demeanor.
Kong Yu nodded gently to Gu Xiaosang, politely, and turned to look at Meng Qi calmly:
"Su Shaoxia's entry into Huan is truly a grand event in Yedu."
There were not many people who came. Apart from the people from the Six Gates, there were the two giants, the Zhoujun Wang Clan and the Huanhua Sword Clan. Any of them was stronger than the Six Gates in Huanzhou. However, there was a secret dispute between the sects and the aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families did not want the court to lose face. After all, the court represented the interests of the aristocratic families and was a golden signboard. In addition, the Six Gates' own strength should not be underestimated, so they were in a relatively transcendent position.
Meng Qi greeted everyone one by one and asked them to sit down. Gu Xiaosang ran around and asked the waiters and maids to serve tea and water.
Shan Xiumei met Gu Xiaosang face to face, but she did not recognize that this was the Daluo demon woman who had chased her for thousands of miles. Meng Qi secretly curled his tongue and was amazed. To be honest, if he had not seen Gu Xiaosang change her temperament, use makeup instead of disguise, and had dealt with her many times, he might not have been able to tell if he had met her face to face!
Wang Ce was the legitimate son of the Wang family, and he was the representative of the Wang family in this occasion. He took a sip of tea and said, "Mr. Su suddenly came to Huan. Could it be that he wanted to challenge the heroes and sharpen his swordsmanship?"
He was more willing to call him Mr. Su than the young knight.
After greeting him, Gu Xiaosang stood behind Meng Qi obediently, without raising his eyes or moving his hands, and was completely ignored by Wang Zai and others.
This time, Meng Qi did not act cold and cruel, but acted naturally. He smiled and said, "I was expelled from the temple and became a wanderer in the world. I have less guidance, less secret books and resources. I have to rely on my own exploration, which is inconvenient. I think there will be martial arts examinations in various states in late spring and early summer. I want to earn a reputation and have a bright future again."
"Heroes are born in Huanzhou, especially in Yedu. I can't neglect actual combat, so I challenge all the masters in preparation for the end of spring."
"I see." Kong Yu showed a soft smile on his face. He welcomed the masters on the list who had the court in their hearts and wanted to walk the bright road.
The royal family itself is a super-powerful force, and although other great families have disagreements and conflicts with the Zhao family of Shendu, everyone will protect the court as a tool. After all, it is the basis for uniting to compete with the sects. Therefore, the court has no shortage of resources and secrets, which is very attractive to the wanderers and abandoned disciples of the sects. In addition, the court can also grant land and minerals, giving the family of new outdoor masters the name of orthodoxy. Moreover, the lord of a county of the Six Gates has great power, and can almost control the life and death of small forces and small families with weak backgrounds. Who would not be willing to serve?
If the families and sects were not willing to let the Six Gates expand into a monster, the scale of the Six Gates would never be limited to what it is today.
Hearing that Meng Qi was preparing for the martial arts exam, Wang Ce nodded slightly: "Mr. Su has amazing talent. He will become a master of swordsmanship in the future. Breakthrough is just around the corner. Why must he take the path of the martial arts exam, just like a monkey for others to see? My Wang family is not talented, but we have enough secrets and resources for Mr. Su to obtain."
He snatched people in front of Kong Yu openly. This is the spirit of a big family and a big sect.
Du Shaobai of Huanhua Sword Sect did not speak. If he said that he had no intention of recruiting masters on the human list, it would be a lie. But the Thunder Blade Crazy Monk was a Shaolin abandoned disciple. If the sect recruited him as a guest official and gave him another inheritance, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of Shaolin? Everyone has a good relationship, so there is no need to do this.
Qi Zhengyan looked straight ahead and just drank tea. He had traveled with Xiao Zi and met Gu Xiaosang. Meng Qi had told him about the successor of Xuannv in advance. Even if he could not recognize him, he could still guess that the maid behind Meng Qi was the famous Daluo Demon Girl.
Meng Qi sighed: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your appreciation, but Su has made up his mind."
There is no way to explain this matter, so I have to leave it alone.
Wang Ce nodded lightly and said no more. After a few pleasantries, he said goodbye and left. When he left the door, he said to Wang Zai: "Fourth brother, you are also going to participate in the martial arts examination in late spring, right?"
"Yes." Wang Zai answered affirmatively.
The children of the big families participated in the Confucian and martial arts examinations to strengthen their family's power in the court.
"Are you sure you can defeat Su Meng?" Wang Ce asked in a deep voice, with a bit of the momentum of the head of the family.
Although there are 30 places for the Huanzhou martial arts examination, there is no problem for Wang Zai and Meng Qi to win at the same time, but with the power of the Wang family, it is very simple to arrange a duel between the two in advance.
Wang Zai thought for a while: "You will know after the competition."
"Su Meng will definitely challenge you, fourth brother, do you want to practice for a while and wait for the challenge?" Wang Ce asked.
Wang Zai shook his head, a confident smile on his face: "I want to watch him win. Every time he wins, my fighting spirit will be stronger. It's rare to have an evenly matched opponent!"
This is his way of accumulating momentum.
…………
Closing the door, Gu Xiaosang muttered: "She has to follow Wang Ce even for such a thing. She is really cautious."
She looked at Meng Qi eagerly: "After you beat Master Huang Zi, Master, you will challenge a member of the Wang family, and then Wang Zai. I don't believe that Wang Ce, as the legitimate son, will not get involved."
