The next day, Jiang Liu stayed at his residence to cultivate.

In the evening, Qin Xue came to find Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu guessed that the warm-up game was arranged.

The two came to the hall and sat down, and Qin Xue took out a page and handed it to Jiang Liu.

"This person's name is Zhou Yousheng, and he is your opponent in the first warm-up match. ”

Jiang Liu looked at the information in front of him, which said that Zhou Yousheng's swordsmanship, combat characteristics, and even personality traits were briefly described.

Qin Xue continued:

"Zhou Yousheng is a disciple of the Huoyun Sword Sect of Pinghu County, and a fellow disciple of Yang Zhiyuan, one of the three heroes of Pinghu.

Yang Zhiyuan was defeated by Cheng Yuan, and the people of the Huoyun Sword Sect were not convinced, and they wanted to challenge our people one after another.

Zhou Yousheng is a second-order swordsman, and he just arranged for you to warm up.

This person's strength can only be regarded as medium among all the participating Tianjiao of the same level.

The match between you is scheduled for tomorrow, and according to the plan, you are going to win this match.

But the process must be tortuous, to give people the feeling of being evenly matched and winning with difficulty. ”

"Okay, I'll try. ”

Jiang Liu raised his eyebrows, how did this warm-up match become an exhibition match when he came to himself, fortunately, we don't lack acting skills.

Seeing Jiang Liu's expression, Qin Xue thought that Jiang Liu was embarrassed, and said with a smile:

"If you really don't know what to do, you just have to put it off a little longer. ”

Qin Xue explained the time and place of tomorrow's game to Jiang Liu clearly, and then left the side courtyard where Jiang Liu was.

Jiang Liu probably scanned Zhou Yousheng's information, and only looked at the part of his personality, saying that Zhou Yousheng had a hot temper.

Jiang Liu casually threw the information aside, such an opponent, Jiang Liu naturally would not take the time to study.

Jiang Liu continued to cultivate according to his plan.

At noon the next day, a group of guards from the palace came to Jiangliu's residence.

The game was held in the afternoon, because it was only a warm-up match for the second order of the sword master, Qin Ye and Qin Xue were inconvenient to be there due to their identities.

Jiang Liu will be accompanied by this team of guards to compete on the battlefield outside the east gate of the inner city.

Outside the gate of the palace, there were three Tianjiao who represented Shenquan County in the competition, waiting for Jiang Liu, they were also beginner swordsmen, and they planned to go to watch Jiang Liu's competition, and cheer for Jiang Liu by the way.

The three of them, as the participating Tianjiao of Shenquan County, also lived in the palace, and Qin Ye had also introduced Jiang Liu before.

"Brother Li, Brother Wang, Brother Bai, thank you, let's go!"

"Let's go!"

"Let's go!"

The four of them walked in front and chatted as they walked, and the six palace guards followed behind, heading straight for the Dongcheng Battle Platform.

The battle platform was set up in the square of the eastern city, and when Jiang Liu came to the square, he saw that it had been surrounded by water.

It's no wonder that the official tournament requires the purchase of tickets, and the price is not low.

Now friendly matches and challenges can be watched for free, and there are many people who are reluctant to buy tickets for the main competition, so they naturally want to join in the fun.

Anyway, it's a battle between Tianjiao, and for the general public, there is not much difference between the main race and the warm-up game.

Jiang Liu and his entourage came to the front of the stage from the passage specially reserved for the two contestants.

Jiang Liu noticed that there was a large white wooden sign on the side of the battle table, on which was written a long list of matchups.

Each match indicates the names and representatives of the opposing sides, whether it is a challenge or a friendly.

Jiang Liu found his name in it.

"Fire Cloud Sword Sect Zhou Yousheng

challenge

Shenquan County Shoufu River"

Jiang Liu asked the on-site guards, there were still three games to play in front of him, and Jiang Liu looked at the stage.

At this time, there was a friendly match going on on the stage, and both sides were swordsmen of the eighth order, and the difference in strength was not large.

The two of them played back and forth on the stage, watching it very lively, and the audience outside the venue also shouted from time to time.

But in Jiang Liu's view, both of them are not in a hurry to win, and they lack the hard work that the game should have, which is similar to sparring.

Even the ninth-order master of the Sword Sect who was in charge of controlling the field on the stage seemed absent-minded.

Jiang Liu watched it for a while, then didn't want to watch it anymore, so he simply chatted with Li Shao, Wang Mingshi, and Bai Jian.

The waiting area where Jiang Liu is located and the spectator area are only temporarily separated by some potted shrubs.

The voices of the audience behind him can also be heard.

"Who do you think will win this game?"

"You don't know how to do it when you look at it, where there is any win or loss in a friendly match, it is just a play, and the challenge is really interesting. ”

......

"How do you buy Jiangliu to win? I think you are losing money. ”

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, yesterday was also Shenquan County vs. Huoyun Sword Sect, isn't it that Shenquan County won. ”

"I also said I don't understand, although Cheng Yuan represented Shenquan County yesterday, do you know which sect he comes from?

Let me tell you, he is from the Xuanling Sword Sect.

But as for Jiang Liu, there is not even a sect on the handicap, maybe it is a loose cultivation.

He wants to win Zhou Yousheng, go dream!

You say, "Have you thrown this money away in vain?" ”

"Ah! No wonder his odds are higher than Zhou Yousheng, I thought I missed it, hey!"

Jiang Liu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, he didn't know what the two of them would say when he finished the competition.

At this time, more than a dozen people walked in from the race tunnel.

Seeing a few people in the river, they walked towards the river.

More than a dozen people all looked unkind, and when they came to Jiang Liu, one of them said coldly:

"Which of you is Jiangliu?"

Jiang Liu guessed that they were from the Fire Cloud Sword Sect, but with such an attitude from the other party, where would Jiang Liu take care of them.

"They are from the Fire Cloud Sword Sect. ”

Bai Jian, who was beside Jiang Liu, whispered to Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu nodded, and continued to chat casually, Li Shao, Wang Mingshi, and Bai Jian also pretended not to hear when they saw this.

The man who spoke, seeing that no one paid attention to him, showed an angry look on his face, and his voice became even colder:

"Hmph, I don't care which of you is Jiangliu, after you play, I will definitely beat you to kneel and beg for mercy!"

It must be Zhou Yousheng who spoke like this, Jiang Liu's eyes were cold, and when he looked up at him, he withdrew his gaze.

The game started quickly, and Jiang Liu didn't want to have a verbal battle with him.

Yang Zhiyuan is one of the three heroes of Pinghu, and has always been the pride of the Huoyun Sword Sect, and he lost to Cheng Yuan before, which made the morale of the entire Huoyun Sword Sect low.

The sect master asked all the participating disciples to challenge Shenquan County to participate in Tianjiao, and whoever won would be given a heavy reward.

However, of the more than 20 challenges, the other Shenquan counties did not accept them, and only accepted Zhou Yousheng's challenge to Jiangliu.

The reason given by Shenquan County for refusing other challenges was only four short words, "not necessary", which made the lungs of the Huoyun Sword Sect explode.

Now the entire sect of the Fire Cloud Sword Sect has high hopes for Zhou Yousheng, hoping that Zhou Yousheng can achieve a hearty victory and revive the morale of the Fire Cloud Sword Sect.

The people of the Huoyun Sword Sect who came to watch the game would naturally take their grievances out of their hearts to Jiang Liu.

As soon as Zhou Yousheng came up, he wanted to give Jiang Liu a dismissal, but he didn't expect Jiang Liuli to ignore them, and he simply ignored them.

The group of the Huoyun Sword Sect was angry and wanted to breathe fire, but this was the battle platform set up by the organizers, and they didn't dare to make a mistake, so they could only walk to the side and sit down.

It's just that everyone looks at Jiang Liu from time to time, and their eyes are full of resentment.

Zhou Yousheng is even more so, he can't wait for the game to start immediately, and he happily breathes a bad breath for the sect.
