Chapter 23 First Day of the Conference
Xiao Wang took Huashan master and apprentice to the lobby, and at this time, the representatives of the other sects in the righteous path had already arrived. In the middle of the lobby stood an old man, although he was old, his eyes were bright and his spirit was vigorous, this person was the owner of Immortal Island in the East China Sea!
The island lord looked at everyone and said loudly: "Heroes and heroes of the martial arts, today is the five-year martial arts conference again! The last time the leader of the martial arts alliance was a master of Shaolin. ”
The heroes of each faction all looked at a master, and a master also nodded. In the five years that a master was the leader of the martial arts alliance, the martial arts righteous path was united, resisted the repeated attacks of the cult, and saved countless people in the world in the famine. Everyone respects the master of Shaolin from the bottom of their hearts. But everyone hopes that they can sit in the position of the leader of this martial arts alliance, achieve great achievements, and go down in history!
The island lord also said: "There are talented people from all over the country, and each has been leading the way for hundreds of years! This martial arts conference held on Xiandao in the East China Sea is to elect a new martial arts alliance leader on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also for all sects and factions to learn martial arts and improve together. ”
"Well said!" everyone applauded.
"The old man was appointed to be the host of the martial arts conference, for more than 20 years, with the rules of the previous competition, everyone has to compete many times, time-consuming and laborious, so this year I propose to use the lottery and elimination to compete for the leader of the martial arts league, and no longer set the second and third in the world. I wonder what you think?" said the owner.
Everyone in the martial arts said that this suggestion was quite appropriate, and it was enough to elect the leader of the martial arts alliance.
Owner: "Then let's draw lots in turn, and I'll try to avoid you in the first round." ”
After the martial arts people drew lots, they followed the island owner and Xiao Wang to the competition venue. It's not so much a jousting venue as a large pristine forest.
"Ahh The head of the Kunlun faction shouted excitedly, "Anyway, I don't have the strength to win the championship, so I should have been eliminated early to study here." Master please!"
A master walked towards the head of the Kunlun faction, and the island owner signaled that the two could start. The two only competed for a moment before the winner was decided. "One master wins!" the island master announced.
Immediately afterwards, nine competitions were held in turn, and the winners were: the leader of the beggar gang Wang, the elder of the beggar gang, the Wudang faction Shao Yunzhen, the Wudang faction Luo Jun, the Huashan faction Xiong Zhuozhuo, the Huashan faction Deng Zichong, the Shaolin Yijing master, the Wudang faction Long Tao, and the Huashan faction Xiaobai.
The defeated people sat down to watch the more exciting competition behind, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and the East China Sea Xiandao also prepared delicious moon cakes and fruits for everyone.
After the owner announced the list of first-round winners, Lang Sheng announced: "Let's have the second round of the competition, and the winners are invited to draw lots." "Xiao Wang, the apprentice of the island owner, took the box of the draw and asked the winner of the first round to choose his opponent at random.
Island owner: "Lottery results: Master Yizun vs. Beggar Gang Wang, Master Yijing vs. Beggar Gang Elder Hong, Wudang Shao Yunzhen vs. Huashan Xiong Zhangmen, Wudang Luo Jun vs. Huashan Deng Zichong, Wudang Longtao vs. Huashan Xiaobai." ”
Deng Zichong and Xiaobai are both happy in their hearts, last time on Wudang Mountain, the two were defeated by Luo Jun's Bagua Palm and Long Tao's Tai Chi swordsmanship respectively (see Chapter 12 for details), they have been thinking about a shame for a few months, and this time they finally have a chance!
The little junior sister Xiong Xiaoshan came to Deng Zichong and Xiaobai's side and said, "Senior brother, junior brother, you once said that you went to the Wudang faction and suffered a loss under the two of you, this time I am optimistic about you!"
Both laughed and said, "That's a must." ”
"In the first game of the second round, I would like to invite a master and a Wang gang leader!" said the island owner loudly.
"Gang Master Wang, Lao Qu has long heard the fame of the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending Gang of Gui, and he has always wanted to try it, but this time he finally got his wish, please!" said a master.
Gang Master Wang also said loudly: "Shaolin's exquisite martial arts are even more admirable, master, please!"
Everyone in the audience cheered: "The first game will see the duel between the head of Shaolin and the leader of the beggar gang, it's so cool!" "I bet on the victory of the eighteen palms of the dragon, the last Wang gang leader did not participate in the martial arts conference, otherwise he would have been the first in the world!" "I don't think so, there are many Shaolin kung fu, and they are all excellent kung fu, there are Yijin Jing, Shaolin dragon claw hand, Shaolin Arhat boxing, and Prajna Zen palm...... There are more than 700 kinds of martial arts routines!""No, no, no, there is not much kung fu, but the essence!" "No matter how fine the external kung fu is, it is not as good as the profound internal strength, a master has already reached the realm of Xiao Zhoutian, as long as you continue to compete with him for internal strength, you will suffer sooner or later! Unless you also reach Xiao Zhoutian." ”...
When everyone was talking, a master and Wang Gang Master competed. Although Gang Leader Wang brought a cooked copper stick (the dog beating stick was taken away by the Cult Blue Sky and White Cloud Sect when the previous gang leader was the gang leader), he saw that a master did not use any weapons, so he handed the stick to Elder Hong.
A master punched Wang Gang Leader extremely quickly, and the audience was shocked to see it, only to see Wang Gang Leader flash easily, and then avoided it. The Wang gang leader is also a punch, and there is a slight master's boxing style, and the one is shocked and dismantled. Gang Master Wang instantly turned his fist into a palm and hit a statue in the chest, and a master couldn't dodge a palm and took three or five steps back.
Yizun only came to his senses at this time: "It turns out that his boxing methods are all imitations of my Luohan boxing, and the real intention is to hit his eighteen palms of dragon descending, haha...... Sure enough, there is a routine!"
A master picked up the internal strength of the Yijin Sutra and rushed towards the Wang Gang Master. Seeing him coming over like a wave, the Wang Gang Master knew that a statue must have used a deep internal force, and he quickly carried the internal force into the palm of his hand and went towards a master. The two men faced each other with their palms, and all the smaller trees around them were affected and broken!
"Bang!" Yizun and Gang Leader Wang were shocked back more than ten steps at the same time.
"Eighteen Palms of the Dragon!" "The leader of the Wang gang used the beggar gang's mastery. The audience expected that a master would definitely have to be avoided, otherwise where would he be able to withstand the palm of such a deep internal force!
However, a master did not dodge, was he unable to dodge, or was he unwilling to dodge? The picture is like a stagnant, and the two of them use their palms to fight against the internal force. At first, the Wang Gang Leader had a slight preemptive advantage, and after a moment of competition, the Wang Gang Leader's internal strength gradually weakened, but on the other hand, a master's internal force continued to roll. Gang Master Wang felt that he was like a flat boat on the vast sea, which could only roll with the huge waves of a master, and would be destroyed at any time!
Finally couldn't hold on anymore, Wang Gang Leader flew out upside down and crashed into a big tree with a thick embrace, and the big tree was knocked and tilted at half a right angle!
Gang Master Wang's face was expressionless: "I lost!"
The owner of the island announced: "In the first game, a master of Shaolin wins!"
Everyone in the audience cheered, it was so exciting.
Island Master: "In the second scene, Master Yijing and Elder Hong are invited!"
Master Yijing is the younger brother of a master, and he rarely appears in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, so everyone is not familiar with him, and I don't know what his skills are. Elder Hong of the beggar gang often appears in the rivers and lakes, but he has always been sloppy and unkempt, although everyone knows that he is strong in martial arts, but few people have a deep friendship with him.
The second competition officially began! Master Yijing separated his hands left and right, palms downward, ten fingers open, injected deep internal force, and attacked Elder Hong. Elder Hong had long heard of his Shaolin dragon claw hand, and it was said that his hand was indestructible wherever he went, and he would inevitably suffer a big loss when he fought with his bare hands, so Elder Hong borrowed the cooked copper stick of the Wang gang leader to contend with it.
You come and go, Master Yijing's hands will turn into "eagle claws" for a while, and then they will become "iron balls", and they will not fall behind when they hit Elder Hong's cooked copper stick. Elder Hong used the beggar gang stick method, which was wide open and endless, and the opponent was a little careless and hit him towards his death hole.
The Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand really lived up to its reputation, and Master Yijing still did not fall behind in the shadow of Elder Hong's "whirring".
Elder Hong smiled slightly, and Master Yijing had a bad premonition. Elder Hong kicked at Master Yijing's defense, and Master Yijing didn't have time to dodge in a hurry. Master Yijing was deeply affected by the kick, and this kick concentrated Elder Hong's domineering internal force, and Master Yijing had no intention of fighting again while lying on the ground.
"In the second game, the beggars help Elder Hong win!" the island master announced. Then, the owner of the island said: "It's not early today, the remaining three competitions in the second round are scheduled to be held tomorrow! After the meal, everyone can play at will on the East China Sea Immortal Island, which is far away from the Central Plains, but the scenery is good, especially the sunset on the sea." ”
