Chapter 144 Year-end Competition. Flame Breakout

On the twenty-fourth day of December, the Songshan faction year-end competition was on the fourth day. On this day, the morning rest, the game between Di Xiu and Li Ji that was originally scheduled to be held in the morning was moved to the afternoon, and the reason was that the previous day's eight-in-four game was too hard, except for Di Xiu because the opponent was not strong, he had fully recovered, and the other three were still not enough to ease up after a night's rest. In the face of this unexpected situation, for the sake of relative fairness, everyone had to postpone the morning game after urgent discussion.

As a result, after a relatively boring morning, the semi-finals did not officially begin until noon was over. Considering that Di Xiu and Li Ji are not weak in skill and have strong destructive power, as the referee of this game, they must have the kung fu to control the scene. In the end, to Lin Han's surprise, the game was played by Lu Bai, one of the three giants of Songshan.

On the No. 1 ring, Lu Bai faced many Songshan disciples with a serious expression. Coughing lightly, after many excited disciples quieted down, Lu Bai said: "Yesterday's competition was very intense, I believe I don't need to say more, no one can enter the top eight of the year, no one is not simple." In addition to Di Xiu, Li Ji, Xu Zheng, and Shi Tao, Tang Jian, Liu Xuewen, He Jin, and Lu Yi also played well. However, the competition is cruel, and if you want to achieve better results, you have to work harder. Only by putting in more effort than others can we achieve more success than others. Today, among the four people who have successfully qualified, who can enter the battle between the first and second places? I'm sure you can't wait. We'll know after two games in the afternoon. Below, the first game was played, and there were two nephews, Di Xiu and Li Ji. ”

In a round of applause, Di Xiu and Li Ji stepped into the ring one after another. This time, Di Xiu's outfit has not changed, it is still a vermilion purple robe with three sword sheaths, it seems that he is not going to change back to the costume of an ordinary disciple. Compared with Di Xiu, Li Ji is still a pale red robe, and the empty sleeve on the right is fluttering in the wind, but there is an artistic conception of 'the wind is Xiao Xiao and the water is cold', but I don't know if he will be like Jing Ke 'gone forever'.

After Di Xiu and Li Ji greeted each other, Lu Bai instructed: "The internal strength of the two of you has broken through to the sixth layer, and the destructive power is extraordinary, I hope you can remember not to make too dangerous moves, otherwise, even if I am present, I may not be able to rescue in time." ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi!" The two replied in unison.

Lu Bai nodded and said, "Since this is the case, I won't say much about the rest, take out the skills of the whole body, perform well, and distinguish the superior." ”

Di Xiu and Li Ji nodded, walked with their backs, and after pulling a distance of one zhang, they turned to each other, each concentrating on guard. The audience also held their breath and did not dare to make a sound, so as not to disturb the two of them.

After a few fierce matches, the aura of the two of them was much calmer, Di Xiu was more adapting to the power of the sixth layer of Songyang True Qi, while Li Ji was more correcting the coordination of his body and the use of Red Fire True Qi.

After several temptations, Li Ji attacked first. Leaning forward, as he went, one arm swung out diagonally, and in a scorching aura, Li Ji's left hand turned into a knife and slashed towards Di Xiu's face.

The Red Flame True Scripture and the Cold Ice True Scripture have always been available to Di Xiu, but in terms of internal strength, he has been trapped in the fifth layer for many years, without the slightest sign of breakthrough, so he can only have hot eyes. After Xu Zheng and Li Ji performed better and better, he also understood that his position would be replaced sooner or later, and sure enough, first Xu Zheng got the inheritance of the cold ice true qi, and then Li Ji learned the red fire true qi. Just when he was so desperate that he was about to accept his fate, Songshan's mental method unexpectedly broke through to the sixth layer, he was overjoyed, and told the master as soon as possible, he originally thought that he could learn the true scripture of ice and fire, but he never thought that the master would just encourage him and stop asking. Just when he was disheartened, he happened to encounter the two things of the Wuyue merger faction and the migration of Songshan, at this time the year-end competition, the meaning of which is intriguing, he is determined to perform well, if he can win the first place, when the time comes, he will propose to learn the true qi of ice and fire, maybe the master will be able to agree.

Di Xiu, who made up his mind to win the championship, understood that Li Ji and Xu Zheng were the biggest enemies, and if they wanted to win the final victory, they must be defeated. At this time, facing Li Ji who was attacking first, Di Xiu decided to be safe, only to see him take a step back slightly, widening the distance between the two, and then contracted his left hand to protect his chest, and his right hand stood up, running towards Li Ji's left palm.

Touch...... The palms of the hands were solid, and the bodies of the two shook at the same time, and they were evenly matched, and the sixth layer of the Songshan Heart Method was the first weight of the Red Fire True Qi, and it was really half a catty and eight taels. Di Xiu was about to compete with his internal strength, and suddenly felt a pain in his palm. A circle of blazing flames was spreading in Li Ji's palm, and although the flame was only a thin layer, like fluff, it was unbearable for Di Xiu. With a strange scream, Di Xiu hurriedly withdrew his right palm, and he didn't dare to slack off, and took three steps back. After getting out of Li Ji's attack range, Di Xiu no longer had a smile on his face, and said gloomily: "Is this the true qi of Chihuo, it is really extraordinary." ”

Li Ji said: "Yes, senior brother should be careful." ”

Di Xiu nodded, and after Li Ji attacked again, his palms slapped continuously, and between the palm shadows flying, he had already used the Great Songyang Divine Palm. This was the first time Di Xiu had used the Great Songyang Divine Palm, which immediately caused a burst of cheers.

Lin Han frowned, staring at Di Xiu tightly, only to see him struck with both palms, slapping left and right, and each time he did not connect with Li Ji's palm, but relied on the complexity and variety of the Great Songyang Divine Palm to attack Li Ji's body and above his wrists, so that he effectively avoided the advantage of Chihuo True Qi. At this time, Lin Han discovered that he was able to cultivate both fast and slow swordsmanship and the Great Songyang Divine Palm, and he was able to make it quite essence, which showed that Di Xiu was not an easy person, and he had underestimated him before.

Before the broken arm, Li Ji was also refining the Great Songyang Divine Palm, and his attainments in this palm technique were no worse than Di Xiu's, plus he wanted to create a suitable palm method for himself based on the Great Songyang Divine Palm, so it was inevitable to study the Great Songyang Divine Palm in depth. In this way, although he only had one arm left, he still coped with it very easily, and Di Xiu did not get a bargain from him.

The two of you come to play with me, constantly exchanging body shapes, and after a hundred moves, no one has anything to do with anyone. Just when everyone watched with relish, Di Xiu made a feint, and when Li Ji dodged, he immediately jumped out of the battle circle, raised his hand, and with a 'bang', the long sword was unsheathed, his hand shook, and he ran towards Li Ji again. It turned out that he saw that he could not win with his palm, so he changed to use sword moves, with the idea of winning with swordsmanship.

Li Ji is no stranger to the seventeen-way fast and slow swordsmanship, because of Lin Han's relationship, he is also familiar with Xu Zheng, and the two often compete on weekdays, and Xu Zheng is proficient in fast and slow swordsmanship.

Di Xiu stabbed with a sword, Li Ji did not retreat but advanced, avoiding the sword style, pulling a long flame with his left palm, and slashing diagonally at Di Xiu's chest. One fell short, the other rose again, Di Xiu's wrist flicked, and the long sword rotated, sweeping from left to right. The sword was fierce, Li Ji didn't dare to slack off, snorted coldly, stopped attacking, his left palm sank, changed to a slap, and with a 'snap' sound, Li Ji's left palm was already slapping on the front of the sword body.

Blocked by the power of the palm, the long sword could not enter, Di Xiu's face changed slightly, his wrist flipped, and he retracted the long sword with the palm momentum, and took a step back to put on the defensive. After forcing Di Xiu back, Li Ji strode forward, running the red fire true qi with all his might, marching, cutting horizontally and vertically, opening and closing the moves, extremely simple, but extremely effective, for a while, the scorching waves of air churned in the ring, and actually forced Di Xiu to be extremely embarrassed.

Temporarily falling behind, Di Xiu was angry in his heart: If it goes on like this, how can he defeat his opponent? How to ask Master for the Ice and Fire Sutra? Glancing at the master on the high platform, Di Xiu's eyes were cold, and he instantly became fierce, staring at Li Ji like a hungry wolf, the sword momentum in his hand changed again, and he attacked with three swords in a row, forcing Li Ji to withdraw. After that, he didn't stop, and the sword moves kept coming, which caught Li Ji off guard for a while, and he could only defend passively.

Xu Zheng was taken aback and shouted, "Sixth Road Sword Technique!" ”

"What?" Lin Han next to him asked in surprise.

Xu Zheng looked at the two people on the stage anxiously, and quickly explained: "Senior Brother Di Xiu has been practicing swords longer than us, and he has been taught the first ten ways of swordsmanship, looking at the swordsmanship he uses now, it is different from the first five ways, but it is in the same vein, it must be the sixth way of swordsmanship, Senior Brother Li Ji is in danger." ”

"That's right...... Don't underestimate Senior Brother Li Ji. Lin Han said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation around immediately, Lin Han immediately raised his eyes, and happened to see Li Ji's palm missing, and when the move was old, it had been looked at by Di Xiu, and a sword stabbed out like lightning, heading straight for Li Ji's right chest.

At such a close distance, Li Ji was no longer able to block with his palm, and he was about to be splashed with blood on the spot. Lu Bai didn't expect this to happen, it was too late to rescue, so he could only watch the tragedy happen, and at the same time annoyed that Di Xiu was too ruthless.

At the critical moment, Li Ji was ruthless in his heart, forcibly twisted his body, and at the same time slapped his left palm with all his might, which was actually a lose-lose idea.

Di Xiu may have been a little hesitant before, and at this time, he couldn't care about his subordinates anymore, and the long sword still stabbed forward regardless of it, hoping to attack Li Ji first, so that he lost his strength under the severe pain, even if his left palm was solid, it was still weak and weak, and it was worth it to exchange light injuries for victory.

...... Touch...... Touch......

In an exclamation, Lin Han and Xu Zheng looked at each other, looked at the two in the ring in disbelief, and turned a thought at the same time: This is too, right?
