Chapter 66 The competition begins
"Women shouldn't ask questions. It's very annoying." Guo Fei stopped and said seriously.
"You! Okay, okay, within a few days, your tail will be raised. I'm doing this for your own good. Once others know that you have the ability to tame strange beasts and have such a beast, not to mention others, just
The Ten Thousand Beasts Bank will not let you go. They will either ask you to become an animal trainer, or they will ask you for secret techniques. The Wanshou Bank is not a simple trading firm. The water is deep, so be careful. Treat your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs." Zhao Xue's face turned pale.
Tight, then his face turned cold and he said.
"Haha. Thank you very much, but a woman should be gentle, so that men will like her. Don't be too strong, otherwise she won't get married."
"Hmph!" Zhao Xue snorted coldly, thoughtfully, and her voice became softer for a moment and said: "Today I am here to tell you that in addition to Zhao Ba, there are three opponents to be careful of in this selection competition. One of them is
Recommended by the army, his name is Leng Dao. As his name suggests, he is extremely indifferent. He uses a ghost-headed sword and is close to the Great Perfection of Qi monks. He is the commander of the Guards Cavalry Battalion. He joined the army at the age of thirteen and was trained on the battlefield.
Yes, rich in combat experience.
The last two are from Linjiabao in Heishi County. The Lin family is a powerful family and has settled in Heishi County for fifty years. They have a deep family background and their majors are as good as my father's. This time, his family recommended two people.
One is named Lin Zhen and the other is Lin Shan, both of whom are Qi cultivators of Dzogchen. In addition, there are some people who don’t reveal their true identity, so be careful."
"Lin Shan, is she a woman? Can women also participate in the talent selection competition?" Guo Fei said in shock.
"Of course, there is no rule that women are not allowed to participate in the selection competition. As far as I know, the Tang Empire's national teacher, Venerable Miao Yu, is a famous magic master in Beiyuan, and his magic skills are no worse than men." Zhao
Xue's face showed a look of envy and she said in a deep voice.
"Are there any warlocks participating in the competition?" Guo Fei asked in surprise.
"Of course not. There is no need to choose warlocks at all. All those who practice magic are talents of the country. As long as they are willing to be officials, they can be awarded certain positions." Zhao Xue said proudly.
"Why?" Guo Fei was surprised.
"Spells are difficult to practice. A first-level spell requires a long time of exploration. But after practicing it, as long as you learn a simple carving method, you can make a spell. The carving method is relatively simple. Most people
Everyone can learn it. Because there are relatively few martial arts cultivators, they often do not participate in frontal battles and use them exclusively to make spells and reserve war resources for the country. But once the martial arts cultivators reach the level of Zun or above, it is different. Their frontal attack power is better than that of Wu Zun.
It's still powerful, which can be called terrifying. Because a low-level magic master can cast a fourth-level magic, which is an earth-level magic!" Zhao Xue explained.
What Zhao Xue said, Guo Fei seemed to understand. He had not systematically learned about cultivation knowledge and did not know its divisions, but he knew the power of the spell. At present, he was still preparing for the competition seriously. As long as he entered the top ten, he would have a chance to systematically
Learn this knowledge.
Guo Fei is a cautious person. To be honest, Guo Fei has no experience in fighting head-on with monks in this world. In previous assassinations, the enemy acted secretly, and Guo Fei did not fight completely on his own strength. Now he is fighting face to face.
, the corpse soldiers and the dancers all let themselves get to the Black Rock Highlands. They must rely on their own true skills to deal with it, and they have to be careful.
In the next three days, Guo Fei took the Golden Hair Roar into the soldier space, walked out of the acropolis, and went to the nearby barren mountains to practice the art of riding combat.
Although he is not very proficient with the Gale Spear, he has already mastered it. After two days of practice with the Golden Retriever Roar, Guo Fei feels that his riding strength is at least above the intermediate level of the Qi Monk, or higher.
Golden Hair Roar, according to its strength, should be in the advanced stage of the demon soldier. Together with the space energy of the weapon talisman injected by Guo Fei, it produced the pseudo-demon elixir, and its cultivation level has entered the demon guard level. It is originally a strange beast with a strong body. Regardless of the
Be it its whip-like tail, its enlarged claws, or its sharp teeth, they are all deadly weapons.
Zhao Xue specially made a fur suit for him. A thin layer of fine steel helmet protected the head, leaving only the eyes and mouth. Two sharp metal thorns were pulled out from the armor; the upper part of the body was put on.
He wears leather armor and has a saddle on it, making him look extremely powerful.
The competition started as scheduled, and the first game was a battle in the ring. On this day, Zhao Xue sent someone to deliver a uniform of a captain's officer early in the morning. Guo Fei put the light blue military uniform on the outside of the rhinoceros leather armor.
, put on the fine steel helmet that was delivered, carried the black iron sword on his back and rushed to the main city arena.
The arena was crowded with people today. Ten arenas were arranged in the central square, lined up according to serial numbers. Each arena was three meters above the ground, ten meters long at the top and five meters wide. They were all built with rammed earth and stone, with four poles inserted around them.
The big flag is flying in the sky.
There are three examiners in each arena. The contestants lined up according to the serial number. Guo Fei stood in his position according to the serial number. Looking back and forth, he saw that the team was all officers, all wearing military uniforms. Although the number was not large, they were unusually neat and solemn.
, there is currently a man carrying a ghost-headed sword, standing there like a javelin, not squinting, letting the chaotic crowd flow to the left and right, looking straight ahead like a wooden man.
"It seems that this person is a cold knife!" Guo Fei thought for a moment.
Suddenly, Guo Fei felt someone peeping at him. He turned around and saw that among the noble disciples, Zhao Ba was looking at Guo Fei and sneered. Guo Fei nodded lightly towards him and smiled calmly. Fighting with such a "poor person"
, Guo Fei is no longer interested. If he provokes him again, Guo Fei will be rude.
In a short time, a group of cavalry rushed into the arena and stood guard around the ring and the luxurious stands opposite the ring. It was obvious that a big shot was coming.
Sure enough, at a short time, a middle-aged man with an imposing appearance, wearing a beige ducal aristocratic dress, walked up to the spectator seat in the middle opposite the ring. Guo Fei knew this man and had seen him on the Black Wall Battlefield, so he was naturally the Black Stone.
The lord of the county appointed Duke Guo, who was Zhao Xue's father.
Behind him, Zhao Xue was still wearing a light blue warlock robe, holding a rarely seen staff in his hand, and followed his father with a faint smile on his face. Behind the two of them, a group of people took their seats one after another.
Judging from the decoration, he is a noble with a title from Blackstone County, a prominent figure in a wealthy family.
After these people sat down, a man about thirty years old announced the rules of the competition. The number of participants was 520. Numbers were drawn in random order. Each person competed ten times, and those who lost five were disqualified.
We do not advocate life-and-death fights, but swords have no eyes, and we are not responsible for life or death. If you feel you are losing, you can voluntarily abstain, and those who abstain are not allowed to be pursued.
Guo Fei didn't know how they drew the order. He just heard that he was announced to be the first one and competed in the first ring according to the order. It was the one in the middle facing the lord's stand.
"In the first game, it's really a shame, even if you don't want to show your face!" Guo Fei showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, came to the first game, and flew onto the ring.
Not long ago, a short, fat, dark-skinned man with a "short black head" also came under the ring and flew onto the stage. When Guo Fei saw where he appeared, he was among the nobles.
He is obviously a descendant of a noble family.
"I know, your name is Guo Fei, but I don't understand. You are not as handsome as me, how can you have a soft meal and get close to the princess. Suffer less hardship and surrender voluntarily. I will leave it to the princess.
Save face." This man held up a beautiful samurai sword in his hand and sneered at Guo Fei.
"Eat soft food!" Guo Fei was stunned for a moment, not understanding what it meant, but he soon understood.
"First game, the game begins!" the examiner shouted.
"Bang!" The moment the announcer finished speaking, everyone on the first stage was seen falling upside down and rolling down the stage. They fell three meters further to the ground and hit their heads with blood and they suddenly fainted.
"I hate when people say I'm a softie!" Guo Fei stepped back and said softly.
The whole audience was shocked. This was too efficient and did not give the opponent a chance to take action. The judges saw Guo Fei's figure flickering and kicked his opponent away.
Guo Fei directly penetrated the ninja into his body and struck out as fast as the wind. He also used the military boxing he had practiced during military training in his previous life, and combined it with the ninja's boxing intention to create his own move "Pull up the vaginal leg".
"Who is this person? He has great body skills! He seems to have excellent martial arts skills!" The lord turned his body sideways and said in a deep voice.
"This person is Guo Fei!" Zhao Xue blushed and said softly.
