He took Gongsun Wu into the main hall of the martial arts hall, and the two sat opposite each other in front of a coffee table.
"I'm sorry, Senior Gongsun, the retreat time is a bit long this time." Lu Changfeng replaced the wine with tea and drank it all in one gulp.
Gongsun Wu took a sip of tea and shook his head: "Master Lu, it doesn't matter to me."
"Do you know how the outside world has spread rumors about you during these days of seclusion?"
Lu Changfeng's hand holding the tea cup paused slightly: "How to pass it on?"
"It's basically said that Master Lu, you are afraid of Sikong Jue!"
"You are said to be timid and dare not go into the ring!"
Lu Changfeng smiled, he didn't really care about these things.
Especially now that he has [Eternal Sword Technique], his mentality has changed a lot.
The previously established route: to gain prestige in Jiangnan Mansion, to make friends with people from all walks of life, and to copy the talent of Gen Gu, can actually be overturned.
It becomes a new route: collect sword skills to increase life span, and you will be born after a thousand years.
Shaking his head, he dispersed the distracting thoughts in his mind.
Lu Changfeng asked with a smile: "Senior Gongsun, you don't think so too, do you?"
Gongsun Wu said to his heart that I was almost convinced before, but of course it was impossible to say this: "Master Lu, you are overthinking. I have always believed in your determination, Lu Guanzhi. Although my Gongsun Wu's strength is not very good, I can judge people."
I still have a good sense."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be the one arranging the match at the venue."
"Ahem, Master Lu, look, how about the match is scheduled for tonight?"
Lu Changfeng nodded lightly, "Just tonight."
Lu Changfeng also wants to see where his strength has reached now.
Sikong Jue should be a good sword-testing stone.
After the agreement was completed, Gongsun Wu turned and left.
Lu Changfeng asked his servant to bring over some recent newspapers to check.
Sure enough, many newspapers have reported on him, and they are basically biased towards the story that Lu Changfeng chose to run away because of fear.
Some of the reports were well-written and sharp, making Lu Changfeng's relatively calm temperament feel a little hot.
In fact, this was all the work of Gongsun Wu. He originally thought that Lu Changfeng was afraid, so he used this provocation to force Lu Changfeng out.
Lu Changfeng took out the latest copy of [Hundred Knowledges and Thousands of Knowledge].
This newspaper run by the Qianzhi Sect is the most outstanding martial arts newspaper in the entire Jiangnan Prefecture and even the entire Song Dynasty.
The ranking list on it can be recognized by the entire martial arts world.
Lu Changfeng unfolded [Hundred Knowledges and Thousands of Knowledge]. In addition to the news information occupying a small area of this newspaper, all other areas are filled with various rankings.
The most eye-catching lists are [Heaven Rank] [Earth Ranking] [Blue Dragon] [Hidden Dragon].
The ten people listed in the Heaven Rank are the ten most powerful people in the Song Dynasty today according to the Qianzhi Sect, and each one is a legendary figure.
At the top of the list, there are even those who have not appeared in the martial arts world for dozens or hundreds of years.
Ranking tenth in the Heaven Rank is none other than Li Tianxing, the leader of the Xuanming Sect, a man of the hour in the martial arts world today.
There are thirty people listed on the Earth Ranking, who are powerful men with names and surnames under the Heavenly Rank.
Qinglong lists fifty people, only the Bone Refining Realm martial arts sects, representing the backbone of the martial arts world.
Qianlong lists hundreds of people, most of them are Yijin martial artists, and a small number are blood-forged warriors.
Of course, there is no trace of Lu Changfeng’s name on these four lists, even though he is now a famous swordsman on Wuma Street.
The Qianlong List includes geniuses from the Seven Prefectures of the Song Dynasty, and the third swordsman of Wuma Street cannot be included in it.
However, if we defeat Sikong Jue, then maybe.
Lu Changfeng's eyes fell on the 98th position on the Qianlong List. There were three big characters written on it, which was Sikong Jue.
The ninety-eighth Qianlong, Sikong Jue, reason for being on the list: At the age of nineteen, he forged the sixth level of blood, and at the age of twenty-one, he condensed the essence of his sword and has extraordinary potential.
If Sikong Jue chooses to be promoted to Yi Jin, he may be able to move up many places on the Qianlong Ranking.
However, the fact that Sikong Jue can be classified as a Qianlong with his cultivation level in the Blood Forging Realm is enough to show how optimistic the Qianzhi Sect is about Sikong Jue's potential.
Lu Changfeng glanced at it and found that on the entire Hidden Dragon List, there were only twelve people who could be included in the Blood Forging Realm cultivation level.
On average, there were less than two people in each of the seven palaces in the Song Dynasty.
It’s no wonder that the Moon Breaking Sect took the initiative to win over Lu Changfeng after Lu Changfeng showed that he was as talented as Sikong Jue last time.
Such talents are indeed worthy of attention.
"The top ten blood-forged swordsmen in Jiangnan Prefecture..."
Lu Changfeng finally saw his name on a list listed in the corner by a Qianzhi sect.
In this list, Lu Changfeng was ranked fourth.
The ones in front of him are Feng Jiu, Sikong Jue and Bai Yimeng.
"This Feng Jiu should be the second swordsman in Wuma Street under Sikong Jue. I didn't expect that she was a woman."
"Sikong Jue is only ranked second among the blood-forged swordsmen in Jiangnan Prefecture?"
"Bai Yimeng..."
Lu Changfeng took a brief look at Bai Yimeng's profile on this small list.
Bai Yimeng, the head of the ten major sects in Jiangnan Prefecture, and a disciple of the Divine Sword Sect.
At the age of seventeen, he entered the sixth level of blood forging, and in the same year he realized the materialized sword intent. Now, at the age of twenty-two, it is only known that he is still in the blood forging realm. The specific realm is unknown, and the specific realm of sword intent is unknown.
"It's not surprising for the Divine Sword Sect. Their talent is probably far beyond that of ordinary geniuses." Lu Changfeng thought to himself.
The Divine Sword Sect, also known as the Shen Sect, is one of the top three sects in the Song Dynasty.
The Divine Sword Sect, the Holy Demon Sect, and the Yunfo Temple are the three strongest sect forces in the Song Dynasty for thousands of years.
The historical records of the sect can be traced back to ancient times.
Dynasties changed, but these three sects never disappeared.
Bai Yimeng has no apparent record, but there is a reason why Qianzhi Sect Baixiao Qianzhi can rank him as the number one blood-forged swordsman in Jiangnan Mansion.
"We have a chance to meet."
"When the time comes, no matter what talent you have, I will copy you."
Lu Changfeng grinned, closed the newspaper, and went to the martial arts field to train his disciples.
Sunrise and sunset.
It's getting dark.
It's evening.
The disciples of the Changle Martial Arts Gym took a break early and rushed to the venue to occupy good seats to watch their own gym leader compete.
Zhou Feng's Yuandao Martial Arts School also took its disciples to support Chief Lu.
Lu Changfeng, one man with one sword, quietly slipped out of the martial arts hall at some point.
Standing on the bank of Jiangzhou Central Lake, I looked at the Yanyu Tower in the distance, which was still brightly lit at night in the center of the lake.
"Sikong Jue's talent is also very good. As far as I know, something happened to him some time ago, and he has some special secrets." Zhao Xingtian appeared next to Lu Changfeng, covered in rouge aura.
"Oh? How did you know?" Lu Changfeng asked curiously.
Zhao Xingtian yawned: "You know, there are always many and mixed sources of information in the Land of Fireworks, and my master's popularity in Yanyu Tower is pretty good."
Lu Changfeng: "..."
"How much money is this information worth?" Zhao Xingtian asked seriously.
Lu Changfeng rolled his eyes: "What's the difference between you telling me this information and not telling it? I don't have to be on the field to test out the real thing."
Zhao Xingtian scratched his head and was too lazy to pretend: "I'm serious, lend me five thousand taels of silver. I've been spending a lot of money at Yanyu Tower recently."
