Chapter 20: The Catastrophe of Heaven 2

This year is the annual triennial martial arts conference of the nine countries, and the venue of this year's martial arts conference is set to be held in Nanling County, Pingxi Prefecture, Jinyi Province, south of the Yangtze River in the south of the Great Liang Kingdom, one of the five major martial arts families of the nine countries - the Lin family Honzhuang.

Because the venue of the martial arts conference is the main village of the Lin family, it is natural that the Lin family will preside over the whole martial arts conference, as well as arrange the accommodation of the martial arts heroes who go to participate in the martial arts conference.

As for the other four major martial arts families: the Murong family of the Dazhang Kingdom, the Dugu family of the Chibing Kingdom, the Bai family of the Fengming Kingdom, and the Lou family of the Hui Kingdom, they are responsible for assisting from the side.

I have to say that since thousands of years ago, after the first martial arts conference on the Tiancheng Continent was successfully held and successfully concluded, this martial arts conference set off a martial arts frenzy on the Tiancheng Continent, which directly led to the martial arts heroes to hold a martial arts conference every three years to compete for the throne of the martial arts alliance.

Moreover, since the successful conclusion of the first martial arts conference, the martial arts heroes have not only held a martial arts conference every three years as usual, but also constantly improved the various deficiencies and loopholes left by their predecessors on the way to the event. And under this unremitting improvement, the holding time of the martial arts conference was finally extended little by little, and then extended......

The longest martial arts conference held in the history of Tiancheng Continent has reached nearly a month!!

Later, a group of martial arts heroes considered that after everyone gathered in one place, it was too manpower and material resources, and it was not conducive to their respective sects to leave their sects for a long time, so after that, a group of martial arts heroes began to work hard to compress the holding time of the martial arts conference: from one month, to more than 20 days, then to 20 days, 178 days, half a month, 112 days......

In short, in the past 100 years, each martial arts conference has generally been held for seven days.

Although seven days is a bit long, it can be regarded as a lot of efficiency compared to the past.

Okay, let's take a general look at the process of this year's martial arts conference-

First of all, the first day is the first round of competition of this martial arts conference. It is all the martial arts heroes who were invited to participate in this martial arts conference, regardless of martial arts cultivation, only according to the actual number of participants in the five rings, and at the same time competed, and finally each ring left the top 20, leaving a total of 100 winners for the second round of the competition.

The second day is a rest day, giving those who won the first round a day to rest and recover.

Secondly, the third day is the second round of the competition of this martial arts conference. It is to let the 100 people who won the first round of the competition compete one-on-one in five rings according to the order of drawing, and finally leave the top four in each ring, leaving a total of 20 winners for the third round of the competition.

The fourth day is also a rest day, giving those who won the second round a day to rest and recover.

Then, on the fifth day, it was the third round of the martial arts conference. It is to let the twenty people who won from the second round of the competition still compete one-on-one in a ring in the order of drawing, and finally only the top two winners will be left for the fourth round, which is the last round of the martial arts conference.

The sixth day is the last rest day in this martial arts conference, giving the two contestants who have gone through a lot of hardships to stand out from hundreds of martial arts heroes and are about to have a final showdown to compete for the throne of the martial arts alliance for a day of rest and recovery.

Finally, on the seventh day, it is the final showdown of this year's martial arts conference - the two contestants who stood out from the third round of the competition will compete in the ring in full view, and the final winner will become the leader of this year's martial arts alliance, and in the next three years, lead the heroes of the martial arts of the nine countries to eliminate violence and peace, and eliminate demons.

In other words, the day Yan Ziming was ordered by his master to go to the top of Qinshan was already the fourth day of the sixth month, that is, the second rest day after the end of the second round of the martial arts conference this year.

Therefore, when Yan Ziming rushed down to the top of Qinshan, passed through the dangerous place in the hinterland of Qinshan, and finally got out of Qinshan, and tried his best to run to Nanling County, which is located in the south of the water town in the Great Liang Kingdom, Nanling County, the triennial martial arts conference of the Nine Kingdoms has been in full swing to the third round of competition-

The twenty people who won the second round of the competition still conducted a one-on-one competition in a ring in the order of drawing, and finally only the top two winners were left for the fourth round, which is the last round of the martial arts conference.

In other words, two years ago, because the previous martial arts alliance leader Aolong was killed by the Cangdie Assassin Regiment who was famous for some reason in the Nine Kingdoms, so that in the past two years, the heroes of the Nine Kingdoms have no leader, not to mention the elimination of violence and peace, and the elimination of demons and guardians, on the contrary, those people in the martial arts have no one to lead, making it ...... between sects and sects

At first, those martial arts people who prided themselves on being righteous people were still clamoring to avenge the dragon, but after working for more than half a year, the martial arts people didn't even find the shadow of the Cangdie Assassin Group, and finally had to stop fighting their own methods.

In short, in the past two years, the martial arts of the Nine Kingdoms can be described as black and white, and the black smoke and miasma are chaotic. If it weren't for the five major martial arts families jointly guarding it, I am afraid that the rivers and lakes of these nine countries would have been in chaos long ago.

The martial arts of the Nine Kingdoms said that it was serious and not seriously chaotic for two years, and finally survived to the opening of this year's martial arts conference, it is conceivable that compared with the previous martial arts conferences, this year's martial arts conference will be so crowded, overcrowded, and unprecedentedly grand!

Let's put it this way, when the news spread that this year's martial arts conference was about to be held in the Lin family's main village, one of the five major martial arts families in Nanling County, Pingxi Prefecture, Jinyi Province, south of the Yangtze River in the Great Liang Kingdom, basically, most of the famous and unnamed heroes in the rivers and lakes of the Nine Kingdoms came to this Nanling County to participate in this year's martial arts conference.

Because there were so many people who came to participate in the martial arts conference, far exceeding the expected number, that the accommodation originally arranged by the Lin family was insufficient, and the inns in the city were already overcrowded......

After realizing this, although the Lin family began to actively think of ways and discuss countermeasures to solve the problem at the first time, there were too many people who came, and there were still people rushing to Nanling County one after another, so that the accommodation matter could not be completely solved.

Later, I don't know who proposed: If you can't arrange accommodation, you can find a place to set up a tent near the Lin family's main village......

As a result, in just a few days, on the slopes of the mountain behind the Lin family's main village and the surrounding open space, one after another uplifted like a small mountain bag...... Tent.

Until the day before the official start of this year's martial arts conference, the huge Lin family Honzhuang has been tightly encircled by the tents set up around it......

Today is the fifth day after the official start of this year's martial arts conference. The third round of this year's martial arts conference will also be held today in the Lin family's main house.

Since the official start of this year's martial arts conference on the first day of the first month of this month, it has been sunny and sunny for four consecutive days. Today is also a cloudless sunny day, which is very suitable for fighting in the ring!

Today's several competitions are scheduled to start at the beginning of the first moment, although it is only the beginning of the morning, but in a wide open space in the Lin family's main village, on the stepped audience seats erected around the open space, all the seats have already been occupied at the beginning of the rising sun today.

In front of the audience, there is a neatly arranged sandalwood Taishi chair, on the left hand side of each Taishi chair, there is also a small sandalwood table, and a blue and white porcelain tea cup is placed on several sides, and two plates of tea that are not delicate but can be saved.

These sandalwood Taishi chairs, which are still empty, were prepared by the people of the Lin family for the heads of the major sects in the rivers and lakes of the Nine Kingdoms, as well as the heroic warriors who are known in the rivers and lakes.

And in this sandalwood Taishi chair, there are five carved pineapple chairs that are different from other sandalwood Taishi chairs, which are placed squarely in this open space. These five carved pineapple wood Taishi chairs were prepared by the people of the Lin family for each of the five major martial arts families of the Nine Kingdoms.

Turning the line of sight slightly, it can be seen that in the center of the wide open space, a circular high platform has been erected, and there are no guardrails at the edge of the high platform, but only three stairs have been erected at the three edges of the high platform for the participants to take the stage. On the ground next to the high platform, there is a large gong half a person high.

And, if you look down from a high place, you can see that in the center of the high platform, there is a huge "Wu" character written in red paint.

This high platform is the ring that will be used today for the third round of the martial arts competition.

In a burst of voices, half an hour passed in a flash.

In this half hour, those neatly arranged sandalwood Taishi chairs in front of the audience have been seated one after another. And on the five carved pineapple wood Taishi chairs prepared for the respective heads of the five martial arts families, except for the one in the middle that is still vacant, the other four Taishi chairs are also sitting on people.

When the half-human-high gong on the ground next to the ring was struck with a "bang", today's competition officially kicked off......

I have to say that compared with those who were expected and destined to win, the most eye-catching thing in this year's martial arts conference is undoubtedly a dark horse that suddenly appeared in the martial arts conference and passed all the way, and successfully advanced all the way to the third round of the competition-Lin Xiaoyang.

As early as the first day of the start of this martial arts conference, Lin Xiaoyang temporarily signed up for this martial arts conference and won the first round of the competition, and when he won the first round of the competition, the martial arts heroes who came to participate in the martial arts conference had already noticed Lin Xiaoyang.

Of course, a group of martial arts heroes will notice Lin Xiaoyang after the first competition, not only because Lin Xiaoyang's martial arts are unpredictable, his fighting skills are very superb, and his fighting posture is ...... is pleasing to the eye, and because of Lin Xiaoyang's eye-catching appearance, it has attracted the hearts of many martial arts heroines——

Standard bronzed skin, straight sword eyebrows, star-like eyes, high but not straight nose, not thin and not thick lips are always slightly upturned to both sides, and a slightly rounded chin......

is not only his appearance, but also his height of more than one meter and eight meters tightly wrapped in a navy blue robe, and his sturdy figure that stands tall and loose wherever he stands...... and the dashing and unmatched heroic posture when wielding the long sword......

All of this is enough to make all the martial arts heroines present look starry and happy, and make all the martial arts heroes present look fierce and grit their teeth.

It's just that at that time, for Lin Xiaoyang, in addition to knowing his name Lin Xiaoyang, all the martial arts heroes said-

Who is this person? Where did he come from? How can his martial arts skills not look like any sect? Although it was a preliminary round, he won too easily, right? With such superb skills, how could he never have heard of him in the rivers and lakes before? Most importantly, how could he be so jealous and resentful of a man?

Immediately afterwards, after the end of the first round of the competition on the first day of this martial arts conference, it is said that Lin Yi, the head of the Lin family who has been ill for a long time, suddenly held a banquet in the Lin family's main village, feasted the heroes, and publicly stated at the banquet that Lin Xiaoyang's son was his youngest son, who worshiped under the master when he was a child, and has been practicing since then, and has only returned from his studies so far.

As a result, a group of martial arts heroes have come to know-

Oh...... It turns out that Lin Xiaoyang is actually the youngest son of the head of the Lin family, one of the five major martial arts families! No wonder his skills are so superb, he wins so easily, and he looks so jealous and resentful......

As a result, after the end of the first round of the first day of this martial arts conference, especially after Lin Yi's feast, Lin Xiaoyang's attention instantly hit the commanding heights of all the attention of this martial arts conference.

So, in the next few days, all Lin Xiaoyang's words and deeds and every move have attracted the attention of many martial arts heroes.

It is said that in addition to being used to elect the leaders of each martial arts alliance, this martial arts conference also has another role, which is to be used to show off.

For the younger generation of martial arts students, it is undoubtedly a good thing to be able to participate in a martial arts conference in their lifetime, and if they can win attention in the martial arts conference and receive the attention of a group of martial arts heroes who come to participate in the martial arts conference, it is undoubtedly a very showy thing.

If the other contestants could be like Lin Xiaoyang, so much attention from the martial arts heroes who came to participate in the martial arts conference, I am afraid that the hearts of those contestants would have blossomed happily. But......

In fact, Lin Xiaoyang, who was so concerned by everyone, was not happy at all, but was a little depressed and depressed all day long. (To be continued.) )
