Chapter 170 The competition begins
A Fei also flew downwards.
"Brother Dijun, I also want to participate." Ah Qing pouted and said coquettishly.
"Stop making trouble, aren't you going to bully others?" Su Yu said, touching the little girl's head.
The Five Realm Competition requires people under a hundred years old to participate, so there are not many younger generation of divine masters. It can be said that Ah Qing is enough to sweep everyone, so it is not interesting to watch.
The number of participants this time is 256 in the Shinto realm and 1,000 in the Taoist realm. Only those who are confident in their own strength will sign up. Otherwise it's just embarrassing.
Among them, those who are in the Shinto realm are basically people from the Holy Land. After all, reaching the Shinto realm within a hundred years is difficult for outside forces except the Holy Land.
At this time, ten huge arenas have been set up in the square. There are two Saint Realm masters waiting outside each arena. I saw these Saint masters clapped their hands on the arena at the same time, and a barrier immediately enveloped the arena. This is to avoid affecting the crowd watching the battle during the battle.
"Next, please get on the stage in the order of the draw."
"No. 1, No. 2, please come to the ring."
"No. 3, No. 4, please come to ring No. 2."
"..."
Soon, twenty Shinto realm contestants entered the ring, including Ye Gucheng. He was on the eighth ring, and his opponent was a disciple of the Holy Sword Sect who also used swords.
"Ye Gucheng comes on first." Daji said.
The eyes of the people on Su Yu's side naturally fell on the No. 8 ring. They saw Ye Gucheng looking calm and relaxed. Compared with the other disciple of the Holy Sword Sect, he was a little nervous. After all, the Jade Emperor Pavilion had just given them a The shock was too great.
"Attention everyone, the competition begins."
Suddenly the battles started in various arenas, and on Ye Gucheng's side, Ye Gucheng also took out his sword and said.
"please."
The disciple also took out his sword and regained a little confidence. This is the mentality of a swordsman.
Ye Gucheng nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the opponent was worth fighting.
"Qiang..."
The two of them attacked each other at the same time, fighting together in the blink of an eye.
The swordsmanship of the Holy Sword Sect is broad and sharp, and the sword energy is sharp, while Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is soft and mixed with endless killing intent.
"Hey, this kid actually understood the sword intention of water."
Ziyin was a little surprised.
"Ye Gucheng has great talent and is very obsessed with swordsmanship. Among these people, only Ximen can compare with him."
"Sword intent is a knowledge. If you have time, you can teach it to them," Su Yu said.
At this time, among the spectators, a middle-aged man was carefully watching the competition on the eighth stage, nodding from time to time, as if he admired the two people above.
"There are still swordsman masters in this world, and this boy in white is quite talented." The middle-aged man thought.
Then the middle-aged man's eyes fell on Su Yu and the others, but it was definitely on Daji.
"It turned out to be her. I didn't expect that she was here too, and she was still with this person from Jade Emperor Pavilion." The middle-aged man murmured.
"Huh?" Daji was so perceptive that she turned her head and saw the middle-aged man mixed in the crowd at a glance.
"It's actually him." Looking at this familiar face, Daji was a little surprised.
"Su Yu, Dugu Qiubai is here too." Daji said to Su Yu.
"Oh?" Su Yu followed Daji's gaze and saw Dugu Qiubai, who looked like he had gone through many changes. His eyes were sharp, like swords, looking in his direction.
Su Yu nodded towards him.
"..." Dugu Qiubai was obviously stunned and thought to himself, does he know me?
Then Su Yu turned around and said to Wuming.
"Senior Wuming, have you seen that person? He is a swordsman who is on par with you. Please go and invite him." Su Yu pointed out where Dugu Qiubai was.
Wuming showed a hint of curiosity. He was recognized by Su Yu and said that the other person was a swordsman comparable to him. Wuming was also very interested, and then disappeared in a flash.
At this time, Dugu Qiubei also sensed someone appearing behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Wuming.
"Brother, my young master invites you to come over and talk." Wuming said with a smile.
Dugu Qiubai did not hesitate, nodded and walked over with Wuming.
"Dugu Qiubei has met the girl, met the young master, and met the senior." When he came to Su Yu's side, Dugu Qiubei cupped his hands and said.
"Do you still remember me?" Daji smiled.
"Of course, I will never forget the girl's life-saving grace." Dugu Qiubai said.
"In the past few years since you ascended, it seems that you have made great progress. You are already at the late stage of the Shinto realm." Su Yu praised.
Dugu Qiubai was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Su Yu with some excitement.
"Yes, we also came from the lower realm half a year ago." Su Yu nodded.
Dugu Qiubai suddenly took a breath. He ascended half a year ago and now it has become a holy land. How is it possible?
"Now is the time to talk about these things, Mr. Dugu, let's watch the battle first and talk about this later." Su Yu said.
Dugu Qiubai nodded.
On the field, Ye Gucheng had the upper hand, and the Holy Sword Sect disciple was gradually losing his strength. If Ye Gucheng hadn't deliberately honed his sword skills, the opponent would have failed long ago.
"It's almost done, brother, I'll give you this move." Ye Gucheng suddenly said.
Then he saw the shadow of an extremely beautiful woman appearing behind him, like a fairy in the sky.
"Flying Immortal from the sky." followed by a soft roar.
The fairy immediately flew down and turned into a sword energy.
"Bang..." The disciple couldn't resist, and was knocked back hard and hit the barrier.
"Ye Gucheng wins." The referee who entered the Saint Realm outside the ring immediately announced.
"This guy." Lu Xiaofeng, who was watching the fight, couldn't help but laugh.
"The Fairy from the Sky is even more powerful than before." Ah Fei said.
Soon, the competition in the ten rings was over, and then new contestants came on stage.
As time passed, it was finally Qiao Feng's turn, and Ximen Chuxue came on stage. The two were in the same round, and their opponents were disciples of the God of War Sect and the Tyrant Sword Sect respectively.
"I admit defeat." Suddenly a voice came, and everyone looked over and saw a young man on the ring where Qiao Feng was, holding his hand high and saying.
"Is this guy so unlucky?" Someone in the crowd said.
"What's going on?"
"Xuanjizi, he lost to Qiao Feng last time."
It turned out that it was Xuanjizi who was compared with Qiao Feng. He smiled bitterly and raised his hand, very discouraged.
"Brother Qiao, I didn't expect it to be you." Xuanjizi said.
Qiao Feng was also a little regretful at this time. He originally planned to have a good fight, but it turned out to be him.
"Sorry." Qiao Feng bowed.
Soon the referee announced that Qiao Feng won. What happened on this stage quickly attracted everyone's attention, and those who knew Xuanjizi soon learned about the conflict between the two, and couldn't help but sigh that Xuanjizi was unlucky.
On the side of the God of War Sect, Nie Yang sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.
Qiao Feng returned to Su Yu, and he also looked very sorry.
"Haha, why are you still frowning? You don't want the victory you picked up for free." Su Yu joked.
Now only Ximen is still on the stage. His opponent at this time is a girl who uses a knife. Ximen looked at her for a long time without making a move.
"That's the little witch of the Tyrant Sword Sect, Ji Xixi." Someone who knew the identity of the girl said.
"It turned out to be her. It's amazing. She has the strength of a venerable at such a young age."
"This girl is the disciple of Saint Mu Yun, so of course she is amazing."
People started to talk about it. It turned out that the girl's identity was not simple. She was the most beloved disciple of the head of the Tyrant Sword Sect. Mu Yun had two personal disciples. The eldest disciple had already entered the Saint Realm and did not participate in this competition. This young disciple was the younger sister in the sect and the apple of everyone's eye in the sect.
"Hey, why don't you make a move? Do you look down on women?" Ji Xixi snorted.
"..." Ximen Chuxue frowned. Looking at the delicate girl in front of him, he really had no interest in making a move.
Ximen Chuxue's expression made Ji Xixi angry. He raised the sword in his hand high, jumped up, and a domineering sword energy immediately greeted Ximen Chuxue.
"Huh?" Ximen was slightly surprised. What a domineering sword technique.
Then he drew his sword and swung it upwards. The sword energy flew out and soon slammed with the sword energy.
"Boom..." The two of them took a few steps back.
The girl showed a hint of excitement, and her eyes lit up.
"Come again." The girl shouted.
"It seems that Ximen is not a weak opponent." Su Yu said.
"The knife and the sword are different. The knife moves heavy, while the sword moves light. Women often suffer more than men when practicing the knife. It is not easy for this woman to have such strength." Wuming said.
"Ximen, don't lose." Lu Xiaofeng said.
"Don't underestimate Ximen, he won't lose." Ye Gucheng said. He knows Ximen best and knows that this guy may have underestimated the woman at the beginning, but once he gets serious, he will be very scary.
The knife and sword energy on the ring are crisscrossed. If it weren't for the barrier blocking it, I'm afraid the entire venue would be ruined.
"Liyang Knife." Suddenly, the knife in the girl's hand emitted a hot flame, and then a flame knife energy flew towards Ximen.
"Snow, ice, sword." The temperature around Ximen suddenly dropped sharply, and countless snowflakes appeared out of thin air around him, and the ground was suddenly covered with frost.
A sword energy condensed from cold air flew towards the incoming knife energy, one cold and one hot, one ice and one fire, and they collided instantly.
"Boom boom..." The arena trembled violently under the collision, causing the two saintly masters on the side to have to increase their true energy output to stabilize the barrier.
Ximen was forced to retreat one step, while the girl retreated three steps. Ximen had a slight advantage in the previous attack.
Ji Xixi did not speak, but there was a trace of determination in her eyes. Looking at Ximen Chuixue, who was still expressionless in front of her, she changed from holding the knife with one hand to holding the knife with both hands.
"You are very strong. The next move I will do is what my master just taught me. If you can block it, I will admit defeat." Ji Xixi said to Ximen.
Ximen did not speak, but he suddenly sheathed the sword, put it diagonally behind his waist, squatted slightly with his legs, turned slightly to the left, and held the hilt with his right hand.
"This action is..." The few people watching the battle were stunned.
"Heaven-cutting sword-drawing technique." Ah Fei's eyes lit up and he said quickly. He was very familiar with this posture. He had practiced it countless times. He didn't expect Ximen Chuxue to use this move.
"Miss, please go ahead. The next move was taught by my master." Ximen maintained the posture and said coldly to Ji Xixi.
