Emperor Li's words directly doubled my territory and successfully entered the second-tier power category of the provincial capital.

In the face of this pie falling from the sky, I didn't have time to feel the joy, I just felt a little stunned. I always thought that Zhang Jian was Emperor Li's person, and even if Emperor Li stopped Zhang Jian's actions, he would not punish him too much. As a result, Emperor Li was really so selfless, he directly abolished Zhang Jian, and then handed over his territory to me, this kind of thing even screenwriters don't dare to write like this!

Because of Emperor Li's decision, I, who was originally only one of the top 24, instantly became the focus of attention of the audience. All kinds of complicated eyes gathered on me, some envious, some red-eyed, some jealous, some surprised, some incredible......

But Emperor Li didn't care about these at all, he seemed to regard himself as the real underworld emperor, and no one was allowed to disobey him. Even, he didn't explain more, and directly announced the start of the top 12 matches, and then stepped down with the support of Zhao Tieshou.

The moderator spoke again about the rules and then announced the start of the randomization. At his command, the LED screen above our heads flashed rapidly, and twenty-four names kept changing back and forth. It seems to be quite fair, but after experiencing yesterday's incident, I know that this group is fake, and who fights with whom has actually been arranged a long time ago.

With twenty-four names cut into groups, I saw my name and ring number and walked off the ring to get ready to play. At this time, Mosquito, Lao Jiang, Feng Qianyue and others surrounded me and happily congratulated me, saying that I really picked up such a big bargain for nothing, and I easily took over Zhang Jian's territory.

However, until now, I did not feel joy, but my heart was a little heavy, because I did not understand what Emperor Li meant, and I did not know whether it was a blessing or a curse for me to suddenly have such a large piece of territory. But everyone was congratulating me, and I was embarrassed to spoil them, so I smiled and said, "I'll talk about this later, and now it's better to play the game." ”

The crowd surrounded me and walked to the ring together. Because of yesterday's martial arts competition with Zhang Jian, and today it was highlighted by Emperor Li, many people are more interested in me, and they come to see my martial arts competition without publicity.

Feng Qianyue said sourly: "Your fame is getting bigger and bigger." ”

I said yes, but it's still a lot worse than your Miss Feng's name.

Among the newcomers in the provincial capital, I can indeed be regarded as a dazzling star, especially after even Zhang Jian was defeated by me, and the limelight was even more incomparable for a while. So after I appeared, a lot of people cheered my name, and I was like a star surrounded by fans at the airport gate, full of pride and light, slowly walking into the ring amid cheers.

That's one of the reasons why I came to the tournament, to increase my own visibility and charisma, so that I could attract others to join us. I believe that if it goes well, when the competition is over, our team will definitely be larger, just like the old generation of Eighth Route Army conscription, everyone has to recognize you to follow you, and I think I can do a good job of this.

After standing on the stage, my opponent soon appeared, this is a guy with yellow hair and a double knife, with sharp eyes and a fierce face, and he is not in a hurry in the face of me, which shows that his strength is extraordinary. In fact, being able to enter the top 24 already shows something.

Of course, there were his relatives, friends and brothers at the scene, but in the overwhelming voices cheering for me, his voice was completely drowned out, and he looked very pitiful. However, I didn't look down on him because of this, and I didn't have any contempt, because it was like this when I played yesterday, and everyone in the audience was cheering for Zhang Jian, and now it's just feng shui in turn, and I don't know who can have the last laugh.

At the referee's signal, the scene slowly quieted down. The referee first briefly introduced the identity and name of me and the other party, and then talked about the rules of the competition, and then announced the start. The people at the scene immediately held their breath and looked at us on the stage intently.

However, surprisingly, after the referee announced the start, I and the man with the double knife opposite did not move. The man with the double knife slowly raised the double knife in his hand and said to me: "Wang Feng, I heard that you are very powerful, but I will not admit defeat, and I hope you can fight me with all your strength!" ”

Look at what people are saying, while admitting that they are weak, they are full of unyielding and proud, they are more comfortable than Zhang Jian, they are also young people, and the gap is not ordinarily big. Of course, I respect such an opponent, so I also took out a Mitsubishi scraper from my arms, held it firmly in my hand, and said: "Accept!" ”

In this kind of high-profile martial arts competition, I definitely won't use my own throwing stick, so I prepared a Mitsubishi scraper with myself in advance, which can be used as both a throwing stick and a knife, the best of both worlds. When the man with the two knives saw me take out his weapon, he stopped talking nonsense, and immediately ran towards me, descending the mountain like a fierce tiger. I carefully observed his movements and posture, and sure enough, as I expected, there was no weak person who could enter the top twenty-four, and this double-knife man was even more powerful than Zhang Jian.

It can be seen that Zhang Jian is really exaggerated, if it weren't for Emperor Li secretly helping him, he would definitely not have the same reputation as me!

And the man with two swords in front of him has extraordinary strength, and what he lacks is an opportunity, otherwise he would not have come to participate in the martial arts competition. In the face of the offensive of the double-knife man, I didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately grabbed the Mitsubishi scraper to fight.

This time, I used the knife technique taught me by Captain Chen to fight against the man with two knives, and as the clanging sound sounded, sparks flew everywhere. The people in the audience also widened their eyes, not daring to miss any of the wonderful pictures.

However, although the strength of the double knife man is quite strong, he is not my opponent in the final analysis, and after more than a dozen moves, he gradually can't keep up, and he is completely suppressed by me. The more I played, the more comfortable I became, and the more he played, the harder he became, and cold sweat slowly flowed from his head.

I seized the opportunity and quickly stabbed him in the shoulder, and one of his knives fell to the ground. But he didn't give up, and he still fought me alone. Soon, I stabbed him in the other side of the shoulder, and his second knife fell to the ground.

At this point, the double knives he was proud of were lost, and he had no capital to continue fighting. He stood still, gasping for air, and I stopped just in time to chase and fight. The double-knife man arched his hand at me with difficulty and said, "Okay, sure enough, I am convinced!" I always thought that my strength was enough, and I wanted to take this opportunity to get ahead and find a bowl of rice to eat, but I didn't expect that there were people outside the world, and there was a sky outside the world, so it seems that I have to go back to hone it again. ”

I smiled and said, "If you don't mind, you can come to me later, and I'll provide you with food!" ”

Now that I have absorbed Zhang Jian's territory, my power in the provincial capital is no longer trivial, second only to the eight families and one emperor, and I am among the second tier. I have a lot of goals for participating in the martial arts competition, and one of the purposes is to attract talents, so of course, I must seize every opportunity. Although the potential of a person like a double-knife man is unlimited in my opinion, the eight families and one emperor will definitely not be able to look down on him, so I just happened to pick up the leak.

I took the initiative to throw an olive branch to the man with two knives, and the man was stunned for a moment, then nodded at me and said, "Okay, I'll think about it carefully!" ”

After saying that, the man with the double knife strode off the stage and left the scene surrounded by his brothers. The referee also quickly announced that I was the winner of the game, and there were a huge number of cheers all around, and many people shouted my name loudly, treating me as an idol.

At this moment, my mood was indeed full of joy, and I walked off the stage amid the attention and cheers, and Mosquito, Lao Jiang, Feng Qianyue and others quickly surrounded me and congratulated me. They were very happy, and if I won, they won, and their faces were full of pride.

The LED screen behind the big boxing ring in the middle also showed that I was the first to enter the top 12, and there were mixed sounds all around.

"He is worthy of being the most high-profile newcomer king in this martial arts competition, I am really more and more optimistic about him!"

"yes, it's amazing...... I just don't know how far he can go, after all, he will meet the people of the Eight Great Families tomorrow! ”

"The people of the Eight Great Families, he definitely can't beat him, but he is already very powerful, and he is the pride of our grassroots!"

"That's not necessarily, I think he is very strong, and he definitely has a fight with the eight major families, if you don't believe it, let's wait and see! I'm going to take refuge in him when I turn around, but I don't know if he's going to take me ......."

There are praises and derogations in the voices around me, but in general, most of them are optimistic about me, and many people are looking forward to me being able to work in the Eight Great Families. In the face of these touting voices, although my heart is also happy, but I am not too proud because I still have something to do.

I immediately instructed Lao Jiang and Mosquito to walk around the hall to see the players who were eliminated in the Top 12, and to remember their names when they saw potential, and to pull them into our team when they came back.

These people, the eight families and one emperor are not looked down upon, but they are like double knife men, and many of them have great potential. The two of them immediately went their separate ways according to my instructions, and of course I was not idle, and I also ran around, on the one hand, studying the strength of the top twelve, and on the other hand, screening some people to join the gang.

The martial arts tournament is really a big gold mine, how can you usually see so many masters gathered together, and I really have to thank Emperor Li for this. I was like a huge sponge, sucking in what I needed, and I was going all out.

During the whole process, Feng Qianyue always followed me like a little tail, she knew what I was doing, but she was also a little puzzled, and asked me why I wanted to collect those losers, wouldn't it be better to directly absorb the finalists of the top 12?

I told her that the top 12 were the people who the eight families and one emperor wanted to win, and I would definitely not be able to intervene, so I retreated to the next best; Moreover, the people who can enter the top 12 must be very proud, and I may not be able to control them.

After listening to my explanation, Feng Qianyue suddenly realized and said, "If my dad is the same as you think, my family will not be down." ”

I smiled and said, "Your family will definitely be reinvigorated now that you have you!" ”

When Feng Qianyue heard me praise her, she immediately became happy, grabbed my arm and said, "Right? I also feel that I am the hope of the Feng family! ”

While watching the game, I also noticed a few strong guys. One is a throwing knife, there are really not many people who play flying knives these days, it is as rare as a giant panda, and he also played very well, and easily entered the top 12; The other one is boxing, and that boxing is not much better than the professional one, but it is a bit of a loss to fight with the person with the weapon, and it was quite difficult to enter the top 12.

I knew that these people could be my future opponents, so I watched their moves very carefully, and my mind evolved the tactics of fighting them. Under my influence, Feng Qianyue also began to study it, because it was her time to play tomorrow night.

The two of us were studying energetically, and an angry voice suddenly sounded next to us: "Qianyue, I've been looking for you for a long time, why are you here?!" ”

Feng Qianyue and I looked back and it turned out to be Liu Gongzi who came. Feng Qianyue immediately rolled her eyes and said, "Where do I go, do you need to care?" ”

"You ......"

Liu Gongzi didn't dare to quarrel with Feng Qianyue, so he poured his anger on me, turned his head and said to me: "Wang Feng, did I tell you to stay away from Qianyue in the future?" Do you think you're mixing well now, and you don't even care about our Liu family? Let me tell you, even if you annex Zhang Jian's territory, you will only be a fart in the eyes of our Liu family! ”

Liu Gongzi's name is Liu Canjun, but he is not a gentleman at all, it is estimated that he is still followed by the moonlight, and his appearance is so arrogant and arrogant, his fingers are about to poke my face. In fact, now I am still unwilling to directly confront the Eight Great Families, but Liu Canjun stepped on my face so unscrupulously, I really can't bear it.

What's more, there is Feng Qianyue next to her, as a man, she definitely doesn't want to lose face in front of girls.

"You have a little respect."

I tried to exercise restraint and reached out to touch Liu Canjun's hand. I just wanted to pull Liu Canjun's hand away, but the moonlight next to Liu Canjun seemed to think that I was going to do something, so he immediately stopped him, reached out and grabbed the collar of my clothes, and asked me what I wanted to do?

The moonlight is still the same as before, the whole person is very indifferent, so faint that he can hardly feel his presence; But as soon as Liu Canjun was in trouble, he immediately rushed up and crossed between me and Liu Canjun. As soon as I saw him, I remembered the humiliation I had suffered that night and couldn't wait to fight him.

Liu Canjun obviously thought the same way, and immediately shouted: "Moonlight, it seems that he has forgotten how powerful you are, give him a little color!" ”

In fact, according to the regulations of the martial arts competition, it is strictly forbidden to have any conflicts under the boxing ring, but Liu Gongzi obviously doesn't care at all, and he also relies on their Liu family to be powerful, and thinks that Emperor Li will not do anything to his Liu family.

But Liu Canjun doesn't care, but I care, I finally got into the top 12, and it is impossible to lose my qualification because of impulse, so I said seriously: "Moonlight, I have also wanted to take revenge for a long time, but let's see you in the ring!" ”

I made it very clear, I'm not afraid of you, we'll see you in the ring if we have the ability. But Yueguang doesn't care about this, he is a member of the Liu family, of course he has to listen to Liu Gongzi's words, and he will immediately start beating me, and the blade is even touched.

I had no choice but to find the Mitsubishi scraper and prepare for the battle.

The people around us also noticed the movement and immediately rushed towards us. In the entire provincial capital, my power is definitely not as good as the Liu family, but in this underground hall, my fame is well-known, and I am the most shining newcomer king in everyone's hearts, and I don't want to miss every fight, so people keep shouting: "Wang Feng is going to fight!" Wang Feng is going to fight! ”

This sentence is like a stone that stirs up a thousand waves, attracting more people to our side. But this place is not a boxing ring after all, there is no guardrail to surround it, and the people behind it are constantly surging, but it washes me and the moonlight away.

Moonlight wanted to come up and catch me, but Feng Qianyue stopped her, Feng Qianyue pushed Moonlight hard, and said What do you want to do, are there any rules?

In the chaos, the staff of the martial arts tournament also ran over, shouting loudly that they were not allowed to make trouble, otherwise they would be disqualified. I didn't want to fight with Moonlight here, so I took advantage of the chaos and the flow of people to retreat, thinking about taking a break and going back if I had a chance, I would fight with Moonlight in the ring again.

Soon, I withdrew from the chaotic crowd, the moonlight was already 108,000 miles away from me, and there were still Emperor Li's people on the scene, so I couldn't fight anything.

I had just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly someone tapped me on the shoulder.

When I looked back, it was an old man with a dry cigarette in his hand, which he put in his mouth from time to time to smoke. I have seen him, he is a person from Zhang Jian's side, it is estimated that he is Zhang Jian's brainchild, and it is not uncommon to see him muttering in Zhang Jian's ear.

I frowned and said it was you?

The old man smiled and said, "Yes, it's me." Mr. Wang, can you take a step to speak? ”

After finishing speaking, the old man didn't care whether I agreed or not, and turned around and walked away. Zhang Jian is finished, and it is Emperor Li who has solved it himself, so I am not worried that this old man will retaliate. And my instinct told me that the old man must have something important to say to me, so I hesitated a little and followed him.

He was in front and I was behind, and the two of us slowly walked out of the crowd until we reached the base of the wall before stopping. During the whole process, the old man did not look back, as if he was confident that I would follow him. The place he brought me to was quite dark, and it was far away from the crowds and hustle and bustle, so that the average person would not find it.

When I stood still, I asked him what was the matter?

The old man was smoking a dry cigarette, and the inside of the cigarette gun was red and red, a little sign that it was about to be extinguished. He grabbed another handful of tobacco, fed it to the cigarette holder, and took a hard puff before saying, "You know, if Zhang Jian is finished, then I will be unemployed." As soon as I'm old, I have to find a place to go, and after thinking about it, I think you're not bad, much better than Zhang Jian's arrogant man...... What do you think? ”

Someone is with me, of course I can't ask for it, but this old man was with Zhang Jian yesterday, and today he came to me with him, and slandered his former master in front of me - I don't like this kind of behavior, but I am embarrassed to refuse him directly, so I said: "Okay, since you like me, when the competition is over, I will report to Lao Jiang and see what suitable position is available for you." ”

The old man shook his head, and didn't seem to be satisfied: "I don't follow Lao Jiang, I want to directly replace Lao Jiang." ”

I couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, thinking that this old man was very confident, and he dared to ask me for such a high position as soon as he came up. I said, "What are you capable of thinking you can replace Lao Chan?" ”

The old man pointed to his head and said, "First, I have a smarter brain than him. Second, I have more experience than him. Thirdly, I hold a secret that is very important to you. ”

For the first two points, I'm really a little disdainful, why does he say that he is better than Lao Sauce? But on the third point, I was quite curious, and asked him, "What secret?" ”

The old man took two more puffs of dry tobacco, and seemed to feel that it was not smooth, so he knocked on the wall, and continued: "If you accept me and let me replace Lao Jiang, I will tell you this great secret, and I promise that you will not regret it!" ”

I hated this kind of threat, and said directly: "I don't think you're that smart - if you were smart enough, you would stop Zhang Jian from attacking me, and what happened now wouldn't have happened." Also, the so-called secret of yours, I'm not interested in it at all, you can talk about it if you like it, and you don't talk about pulling it down. If it's okay, I'll go first. ”

With that, I turned around and prepared to leave.

The old man's voice sounded behind me: "I have persuaded Zhang Jian about it, but I can't persuade him, he is a fool who has been lost in Emperor Li's sugar-coated cannonballs. Originally, I thought you were pretty good, but if you continue like this, I think you'll be soon, and you'll be the next Zhang Jian! ”

My brow furrowed slightly, and I looked back at the old man, and said what the hell do you mean, and I have something to say.

The old man laughed twice, and said in a deep voice: "I can only tell you that this martial arts competition is different from previous years, Emperor Li is planning a big plan, and you and Zhang Jian are just chess pieces for him to play." The reputation of the rookie king is very good, but as the old saying goes, the higher you hold it, the worse you fall! Do you think that Emperor Li is really just supporting young people by praising you and helping you so much? Don't be naïve! When the time comes, you will be sold by Emperor Li, and you will have to help him count the money, you will be the number one fool in the world! ”

The old man's words were full of organs, and he felt that he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. But I can feel that these things that the old man said are not trivial, why is this tournament different from previous years, and what plan is Emperor Li planning?

I'll tell the old man to make it clear.

"I said it, if you let me replace Lao Chan, I'll tell you everything, so that you don't have to be that inexplicable unjust ghost!" The old man smiled.

I was a little annoyed, saying that you replaced Lao Jiang on the left and Lao Jiang on the right, Lao Jiang has made great contributions to me, how can you replace him because of a few words from you? Besides, you replaced, why did Lao Jiang go, go home and farm?

"You don't have to worry about that......"

The old man finished smoking a bag of cigarettes, knocked the cigarette ash on the soles of his shoes, and said with a heavy smile: "Because, Lao Jiang has been killed by me......"
