Chapter 156: The Next Challenge
In the center of the martial arts field, three people faced each other in a line. Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji surrounded Jian Qiu in the middle, circling him, trying to find out his weaknesses.
But Jianqiu just waited calmly, showing no impatience or solemnity towards their scrutiny. These were two real opponents. Their strength might not be as good as one percent of his, but they had the courage to lose.
His heart was shaken even by him.
So, he gave them enough respect!
Suddenly, the two people who seemed to be still examining each other suddenly looked at each other, and at this moment, Jue Yuan let out a low drink, and a strong aura suddenly emerged from his body. He clenched a fist with his left hand and turned his right hand into a claw, and suddenly ran towards the sword.
go.
"Ouch - roar -" At this moment, two voices faintly came from somewhere, resounding throughout the entire martial arts arena. On the surface of Jue Yuan's body, a phantom of a dragon and a tiger suddenly appeared.
, lingering around him, especially on his hands, where the tiger head and dragon head were, as Jue Yuan roared towards Jianqiu!
In an instant, dragons roared and tigers roared, the wind swayed, and the powerful power made the heads of small families in the field freeze. But Jianqiu's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't even blink.
The wind was light and the clouds were still calm, but when the Tiger Fist and Dragon Claw arrived, he raised his right hand without drawing the sword. He just used his hand as a sword and slashed it down with all his strength.
But such a simple power attack seemed to contain a thousand kilograms of power, as if it imprisoned the space, condensed the vitality, caused the roar of dragons and tigers to stop abruptly, and even the shape of the dragon and tiger dissipated.
meaning.
Jue Yuan, on the other hand, was struck by this force and could no longer maintain his forward trend. He could only raise his hands to fight against it.
With just this move, you will be invincible!
However, Jue Yuan, who was at a disadvantage, did not show any sign of despair in his eyes. He had known for a long time that Jian Qiu was very strong, so it was not unbelievable that he could be completely suppressed with one strike of his sword.
However, he knows that he is not alone. After he attracts Jianqiu's full attention, his brothers will take his share of glory to harvest Jianqiu!
And at this moment, when most people on the scene were attracted by the fierce confrontation between Jue Yuan and Jian Qiu, a long sword suddenly appeared behind Jian Qiu...
The long sword was simple and flawless. It danced without a trace of internal energy, and it didn't cause a trace of wind. It came behind Jianqiu unknowingly. A Tai Chi circle condensed... and quickly dissipated, but just behind Tai Chi
The moment it dissipated, a cold light suddenly appeared in the center of the Tai Chi circle, and the cold light penetrated directly into Jianqiu's heart!
Zhang Ji’s ultimate kill!
First, Jue Yuan attacked with strong force from the front, arousing all Jian Qiu's attention, and then Zhang Ji's Tai Chi sword technique launched a decisive blow from behind. This was the thought exchanged in the moment when Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji looked into each other's eyes. Jian Qiu Shi
In Too Perfect, they can't find any weaknesses in him, but if there are no weaknesses, they can only create them!
That's why Jue Yuan's attack and Zhang Ji's decisive kill came about! Only by diverting Jianqiu's full attention could Zhang Ji have a chance of succeeding in the decisive kill!
But, can they be lured away?!
Zhang Ji's expression was stern. The tip of his sword was only a few centimeters away from Jianqiu's back, but he still didn't dare to be careless. Perhaps in the eyes of others, the probability of his sword hitting Jianqiu was already 100%. However, in
In front of Jianqiu, there is never one hundred percent!
"Ding——" Just when the tip of his sword was about to pierce Jianqiu's back, a scabbard suddenly swung from below and collided with the tip of his sword, making a crisp sound of gold and iron clashing.
.
But it was Jianqiu who struck with his left hand at this critical moment. He just raised it slightly and used the scabbard to neutralize Zhang Ji's killing blow!
There was a quiet stillness on the field. After seeing the simple exchange between Jianqiu and Jueyuan Zhang Ji, they, as fourth-level masters, suddenly broke into cold sweats. If it was Zhang Ji's decisive blow with his sword,
If it affects them, they will never be able to escape!
Looking back, he found that after the attack failed, Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji did not show Cuo'e's expression, but remained solemn, staring at Jian Qiu with his eyes tightly, and started a new round of attack.
Jue Yuan was the main force, and he refined the Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand and Fuhu Demon Subduing Fist into one. The two unique skills complemented each other, and the dragon and tiger rushed towards Jianqiu with invincible power.
The sword could not be avoided, but it still did not draw the sword. He raised his right hand, using it as a sword, and fired sword light. Although the dragon and tiger were fierce, they could not gain any benefit from his sharp sword light. Instead, they were killed.
He was completely suppressed.
Zhang Ji interferes with Jianqiu from the side, not that he is incompetent, but his Tai Chi swordsmanship is a swordsmanship that pays attention to the balance of offense and defense. If he also gets involved, then there will be no one to defend the two of them, and they will definitely lose.
Very miserable.
Although the best defense is to attack, in front of Jianqiu, without defense they wouldn't even have a chance to attack!
If you are cruel, he will definitely be more cruel than you! Do you want to exchange injuries for injuries? But in the end you will find that even if you die, he will not be hurt at all!
Therefore, when facing Jianqiu, you can only defend first! Even if your side has the upper hand, you must defend!
The Tai Chi Circle appeared and protected Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji tightly. Even at the moment after Jue Yuan and Jian Qiu fought hard, Jue Yuan did not react and Jian Qiu suddenly launched a counterattack, they were not happy.
fear.
Occasionally, a sword light flashed, and the bright light illuminated Jianqiu's eyes, making him frown slightly and he could only take two steps back.
Only by combining offense and defense can one be qualified to fight Jianqiu!
This is the experience they gained through failure!
He Jianqiu fights, they are eager to win but do not pray to win. As long as they can persist longer than last time, then they will be worthy of it!
However, you come and go, combining offense and defense. Maybe Jianqiu can't do anything about them, but this will not work after all, because they have spent too much internal energy, and Jianqiu, who has not drawn his sword, has not spent any internal energy at all, so
They will still be the losers in the end.
Therefore, there must be a choice!
After another hard fight with Jianqiu, the two of them looked at each other. Brothers don't need too much communication. They only need one look to know what you are thinking.
They knew that the opponent's internal strength was running low, and maybe the battle would be over in a few rounds. However, this was the last battle between them and Jianqiu. Is it really going to be between this mediocre attack and defense?
Is it over?
If you smile at each other and understand the other person's thoughts, instead of delaying defeat, you should gather the remaining inner strength and turn it into your most powerful move. That way, you should be qualified to force him to use the sword.
In the last battle, even his sword was not visible, so he was unwilling to lose even if he lost!
"Ouch - roar -" The dragon and tiger surrounding Jue Yuan suddenly let out a deafening roar, and then separated from his body and jumped into the air, galloping in the mid-air of the martial arts arena.
The top of Wudang Mountain is already high, but now the galloping of a dragon and a tiger has caused turbulence in the sky. It looks so spectacular.
After a while, the dragons and tigers seemed to have swam enough and swept down again, rushing towards Jue Yuan in the strong wind. However, this time they did not gather around Jue Yuan again, but actually swarmed towards his Tianling Gai, one after another.
Everything got into his body!
"Roar——" At the moment when all the dragons and tigers were submerged into Jue Yuan's body, he roared loudly, opened his eyes, and the shapes of dragons and tigers suddenly appeared in his eyes!
All the clothes on his upper body exploded, and his right hand suddenly swelled three times, and his muscles were erect, like a horned dragon.
He punched forward fiercely, and in an instant, the space in front of him fluctuated, and then a half-meter-long golden light pillar was shot out. A dragon and a tiger were entangled in the light pillar, and they rushed towards the still calm Jianqiu!
As for Zhang Ji, he no longer retains it at this time. Tai Chi pays attention to balance, but it can also be hard or soft. When it is soft, nothing can touch the body, but when it is hard, it is also extremely powerful.
With a stroke of the sword, the Tai Chi circle appeared. There was an obvious dividing line between black and white. At this time, a shocking sword light suddenly appeared in the dividing line, and it slashed down Jianqiu in the distance!
It may sound slow at this time, but Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji's moves were instantaneous. Almost at the same time, the sword light and the light pillar arrived in front of Jian Qiu. And where the golden light pillar and the dazzling sword light merged into one,
In an instant, a burst of huge energy burst out, affecting the perception of the fourth-level masters, making them unable to see Jian Qiu in the center of the light beam and sword light. They could only vaguely see his right hand holding the hilt of the sword!
The elder of Jianzong on the platform in the distance moved slightly. He couldn't help but take two steps forward. His eyes were fixed on Jianqiu. Both Jueyuan's beam of light and Zhang Ji's sword light gave him a sense of danger, and if
If the two are combined into one, then he... can't imagine whether he can take it!
In an instant, it seemed as long as a year. When the golden light and sword light surrounded Jianqiu, everyone looked where they were. Even Ximen Yuanwang, who had always closed his eyes and looked down on anyone else of the same rank except Jianqiu, was confused.
His expression moved slightly, and he smelled a dangerous atmosphere in the light beam and sword light.
Suddenly, a white streak seemed to appear, cutting through the golden beam and shattering the extremely powerful sword light, and then rushed towards Jue Yuan Zhang Ji with unparalleled power.
Bang! Bang!
There were two sounds of falling to the ground. Jue Yuan raised his fists in front of his chest to block the white streak, but there was a bone-deep wound on each arm!
As for Zhang Ji, his extremely weak Tai Chi Circle shattered, causing a spurt of blood to flow out, but he finally deflected the trajectory of the white sword light and saved a small life.
The golden beam of light disappeared, and all the energy fluctuations in the world returned to calm. Everyone looked at Jian Qiu with his right hand on the hilt. The long sword was almost completely drawn out, with only a trace of the sword tip still resting on the scabbard.
But, just a tiny bit, they still didn't force Jianqiu's sword out!
They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Is the gap between them really that big?!
"Haha..." Playful voices gradually sounded around. Even though the battle just now was thrilling, even the combat power shown by Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji was no less than theirs to a certain extent. But if you lose, you lose. If
If others lose, no one will laugh, because losing with Jianqiu is inevitable, but the losers are Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji, these two fools who have lost countless times but still remain stubborn!
Alas, young people are arrogant. They always think that they are invincible and cannot accept the fact that others are better than themselves. They challenge again and again, but the result is failure again and again... Such people who cannot even accept failure, even if some
He is talented but his future achievements will not be very great.
In their hearts, they evaluated Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji as elders, and shook their heads with pity, hypocritically expressing their pity for the two geniuses. Shaolin Wudang... is going to decline after all.
However, they can laugh at it now, but decades later when Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji reach the pinnacle of martial arts but they still stand still, they will know that their thoughts at this time are so ridiculous.
"You guys, yes, you should be able to force out my sword next time."
Ding, the long sword is sheathed, Jianqiu said calmly, then ignored them and returned to the center of the field, looking up at the platform, his eyes were calm but the meaning was self-evident.
"Who else?"
But Jue Yuan and Zhang Ji, who were still paralyzed on the ground, were stunned when they heard Jian Qiu's words. Looking at the aloof back, the fighting spirit that had died in their hearts was rekindled at this moment, and they had already made a decision.
This is the last challenge, because they will not be worthy of being Jianqiu's opponents in the future, but what does that sentence mean now? What does "you can force my sword out next time" mean "next time"?!
Are you telling them, can you still challenge me?!
Are you telling them, are you qualified to be my opponent?!
At this time, the two men who had remained silent even in the face of everyone's ridicule suddenly burst into tears, with tears streaming down their faces... No one knew how much it would cost them to have the courage to challenge Jianqiu again after they lost. No one knew
When no one understands how heavy a burden they must bear when their decisions are questioned by the world, no one knows that challenging Jian Qiu has become the most important thing in their lives!
But in the future, I can no longer challenge it! But now, is this... approved by him?
After losing for so many years, being laughed at by others for so many years, and practicing hard for so many years, I finally... got his approval!
Then...it's all worth it!
Next time, I will never let you down!
