Chapter 10 Contradictions

"Come, a toast to our Beastmaster, oh no, it should be the future Douwang, cheers!" In the proud castle, Old Jack rarely and generously contributed the red wine he had treasured for many years to raise a glass to celebrate.

Although he is only in the top sixty-four now, in the next battle, every game has a gamble, and with Zhuo Ao's confrontation with the Kuloo from the imperial capital today, at least before the two sides meet, he doesn't think Zhuo Ao will lose, as an investor, there is about to be a fighting king born under his own witness, and Old Jack has no reason to be unhappy.

"Blind optimism is a businessman's biggest failure." Gloria gently took a sip of the red wine in the glass, glanced at Old Jack lightly, and said coldly.

"That's a good point." Zhuo Ao nodded, although he had confidence in himself, the future was always full of uncertainties, and no one dared to say what would happen to him tomorrow.

"Hey, I said, it's rare to be happy, why bother with such a bad fun?" Old Jack drank his red wine dissatisfiedly and muttered.

"Happiness is a thing, just like red wine, you can't enjoy it, eight points is enough, leave two points, as an aftertaste, if you use it up at once, then what you will face next, is endless emptiness and loneliness." Zhuo Ao drank all the red wine in the glass, put down the wine glass and said, "I'm going to train, call me again for dinner." ”

"Hey, I said Zhuoao, tomorrow is the official competition, why do you have to work so hard? You should give yourself some relaxation! Old Jack wanted to stop Zhuo Ao, but unfortunately, Zhuo Ao's figure had disappeared at the door, Gianna and Keya hurriedly followed, Zhuo Ao had already allowed them to watch or practice around yesterday.

"Really...... Incomprehensible man. Old Jack smiled wryly and shook his head.

"This is the difference between you and him, so, he has gone from a slave step by step to where he is today, while you, for so many years, have been standing still, from the very beginning of the investor, to now, can only rely on the snort of others to survive, he will not let himself relax his guard at any moment, let himself move forward, and you, but you are used to enjoying comfort." Gloria said indifferently.

"Daughter, I am your father!" Old Jack rolled his eyes speechlessly, why is she her own daughter, but she always stands in someone else's position against herself? Randomly, Old Jack looked at Gloria suspiciously: "You can't like him, do you?" ”

"No, I'm just going to take matters into account." Gloria felt her cheeks burn a little, and turned her head in a natural posture as much as she could, not looking at him.

"I know you too well, Gloria." Old Jack stood up and walked to Gloria's side: "Listen, I also admit that Zhuo Ao is a good young man, but I don't allow you to like him, no matter how powerful he is now, but he was always a slave, of course, I don't mean to belittle him, but I think that with your appearance and knowledge and cultivation, you should marry a nobleman, a real nobleman, Zhuo Ao?" No matter how hard he tries, in this life, he will only be a baron at most, and his status as a slave will definitely become a laughing stock in aristocratic circles, and you will not be able to raise your head with him. ”

"Enough!" Gloria turned around, looked at Old Jack and said, "Then why did Mother marry you back then?" ”

"I ......" Old Jack's eyes flashed with a sore spot, and he shook his head: "It's different." ”

"It's no different, with my mother's beauty, there will be no fewer people who pursue her back then, but my mother still chose you, and I don't understand why she is so stupid, although I hate you, but before my mother died, she said, let me not hate you, she still loves you even to death, I really can't see what shines in you, although Zhuo Ao also said, you have your advantages, but sorry, I can't see it."

"Don't think you're successful, you think who's to blame for keeping the castle's finances in order? It's not you, it's Zhuoao who silently supports you behind his back, his casual two sentences, can make you take a lot of detours, wrong roads, he is an excellent man, not only strength, but also has the wisdom that ordinary people can't have, which you can't compare. ”

"I ......" Old Jack was bitterly speechless, silently lowered his head, and drank the red wine in the glass one by one.

"Who will I love, that's my freedom, I believe in my own eyes, so ......" Taking a deep breath, Gloria looked at Old Jack: "Please don't plan my life without permission, make me hate you!" With that, he turned to leave, without looking at the depressed old Jack again.

"Alas~" In the empty hall, only Old Jack's silent sigh remained, drinking the expensive red wine one by one.

On the training ground, I didn't know that the father and daughter had a quarrel because of themselves, Zhuo Ao continued his cultivation, the three-body pose, is the root of Xingyi Boxing, originally, Zhuo Ao thought that he had completely mastered this set of boxing techniques, but the last breakthrough, let Zhuo Ao experience a lot of things.

Really mastered?

The three-body movement is not complicated, but it is the foundation of Xingyi Boxing, and Zhuo Ao is practicing one move at a time on the training ground.

Fast and slow, in martial arts, there is no absolute one that must be strong, only fast is not broken, that is a kind of realm, in a sense, it is true, but many times, fast represents offense, but also means giving up defense, the fastest, is the strongest, but it is also the weakest, because fast to a certain extent, it means completely giving up defense, not that I don't want to, but no one can do it at the extreme speed, and can make more moves, even if it is done, then fast will lose its meaning.

Zhuo Ao constantly adjusted his speed, trying to find his own way in this three-body pose, which is known as the root of Xingyi Fist.

Zhuo Ao was surprised to find that with the continuous study of the three-body pose, he seemed to be integrated into the surrounding world, and his sense of thought gradually expanded, and he no longer needed to see with his eyes to perceive the things around him.

Zhuo Ao is no longer limited to Xingyi boxing, the fist momentum turned, into the Xingyi twelve style, sometimes like a tiger descending the mountain, fierce and unstoppable, sometimes like a white crane spreading its wings, elegant and noble, sometimes like a mountain ape......

There was nothing to say all night, the next day, there were not too many twists and turns in the game to advance to the top 32, the opponent was a fifth-order swordsman, the swordsmanship was sharp, but he didn't even get close to Zhuo Ao's side, he was forced to fall off the field by the flying card technique, and successfully advanced to the top 32, and at the same time, the flying card technique was also shown in front of the world for the first time.

The same result in the second game, the facts also proved that the fifth-order swordsman, in front of Zhuo Ao, did not even have the qualifications to let him use weapons, although it was surprising, but for the old audience of the Colosseum, this day was undoubtedly the happiest day, the beast king Zhuo Ao, sure enough, did not disappoint them, and Zhuo Ao's popularity in the Colosseum also climbed to a fixed point.

"As far as I know, our Beastmaster's weapon is an infantry spear, oh, he calls that infantry spear a dragon-patterned spear, right?" In the Colosseum, on an uninhabited high platform, Viscount Tris asked lightly at Zhuo Ao, who was leaving the arena surrounded by the crowd.

"Yes, but the strange thing is that since he was promoted to a senior fighter, he hasn't used a gun again, and even this flying card skill was only used yesterday against Orlando." Richard nodded.

"It's not hard to understand." Viscount Tris sighed and said, "Do you think those high-ranking fighters in our Colosseum are qualified to let him use weapons?" ”

Think about the fighters in the Colosseum, the most powerful last fighting king, in this fighting championship, he was brushed down after failing to survive the first round of auditions, compared with Zhuo Ao...... Shaking his head, Richard sighed: "It's unimaginable, I remember that when he entered the Colosseum, he was still a little person who was not even as good as ordinary people, and in just two years, he has grown to this point, and his future ......"

"That's enough." Viscount Tris looked at Richard coldly: "Do what you have to do!" ”

"Yes." Richard nodded, and then said, "Can we secretly promise to make Zhuo Ao give up this Douwang qualification with double rewards for the Fighting King Competition!" ”

"Double?" Viscount Tris looked at Richard incredulously and said, "In other words, do I want to prepare another territory with a larger area and give him the title of baron?" Do you know how difficult it is to hold the title of a nobleman? Even though this is in the province of Leyson, I'm not a governor, and he's, if not for us, he'd still be a lowly slave! Do you understand? ”

"This ......" Richard lowered his head, not daring to look at Viscount Triss.

"Everything he has today was given to him by our Colosseum in Leyson, I can promise to give him double the reward of gold coins, as for the rest, it is impossible, just take it as his reward for our Colosseum of Leyson." Viscount Tris said coldly.

"Yes." Although he did not agree with Viscount Triss, Richard did not have the courage to refute it.

"He's in the quarter-finals today, according to the schedule, he's going to meet Kuloo in the semi-finals, you don't have much time, convince him as soon as possible, I don't want to see any surprises!" Viscount Tris said coldly.

"Yes, I'll head to his castle at once." Richard nodded.

"It is a great irony that a lowly slave should one day have his own castle! That's why he should be doubly grateful to me, because I gave him everything he has today! Shaking his head, Viscount Tris left with his hands behind his back.
