Chapter 6 Finalists
To capture the bell means to get close to the opponent, but some people want to be opportunistic and try to knock the opponent's bell down, if the bell falls to the ground or is taken back by the wearer, instead of holding it in the hand, this situation will not be judged as a winner, but will directly judge the loser who fell. This kind of competition is actually more about skill, but some simple-minded, well-developed limbs don't think so, and they are more accustomed to relying on tough means to knock their opponents to the ground and then win the bell. If you know that your opponent is this kind of guy, most people will have a psychological shadow, and even cower and abstain. Although there are a large number of applicants, most of them just want to try their luck, and there are few people who really have the heart to practice martial arts.
After three rounds of competition, Alain Bu finally managed to stand out, and in the end there were only sixteen people left, and all that was left after the chaff was removed. There are two rounds to go, but the most important thing is that Alain Bu feels that he is not sure of winning, his strength and skill are not outstanding, and the only thing that can be called a good thing is that he is sharp, he likes to seize the gaps in his opponent's attacks and counterattack, otherwise it is all up to luck. To be honest, it was good enough to get this far, but he felt that he couldn't just give up, and he wanted to seize even the slightest hope.
But the reality makes people laugh and cry. On the day of the competition, the person in charge came to him and told him that your opponent couldn't come, because his family knew about his secret coming to register for the competition, and his parents ordered him to go back. So Alain Bu was inexplicably promoted, but he was not happy at all, because he also came out without telling his family, only telling them that he would stay out for a few days and would be back soon. He knew that they really regarded him as their own child, but it had been more than ten days, and they would inevitably be worried and sad if there was no news, maybe they were now looking at the calendar on the wall in a daze, and Alain Bu had also wanted to call back, but after all, he still couldn't.
However, what he didn't expect was that until the last round of the competition, Yuan Hong himself actually appeared in front of everyone. The gray-haired, old-fashioned appearance of Long Zhong is very different from the mighty image in everyone's hearts, and people can't help but feel deep regret: time is really a cold and invisible killer.
"Everyone, please calm down, I have something to say, shhhh I've watched every one of your games, so I already have an idea of your strengths. Now, I am here to tell you the good news that all of you here may become my disciples! Old Man Yuanhong finally spoke, and it was a blockbuster.
"Huh? Yuanhong Dada, is this true? You can't lie to us. ”
"Right...... No, no, the competition has been canceled, and now you can become a member of this True Martial Hall as long as you complete my test with the weapons you are good at. ”
When everyone heard this, they were shocked, they all heard that Yuanhong's test has always been difficult to go to the sky, not to mention that all people can pass the test, even if only one person can pass, he can go out and show off a few times. Having said that, the food still has to be eaten, and the toilet still has to be served, otherwise I will be too sorry for myself.
The test is divided into two sessions, with four people each, placed in different venues and supervised by a single invigilator, with a time limit of three hours. Fortunately, Alain Bu was assigned to the afternoon game, so he practiced the long stick all morning, and I don't know why he chose the long stick, maybe he was too benevolent and more inclined to defend. Speaking of the test, Alain Bu estimated that he would not be able to pass eighty percent, but it was okay to pack his baggage and go home early. Thinking of this, Alain Bu suddenly felt inexplicably relieved, what tricks can a stick play? It's better to take a stroll around.
"What? Beat...... Play? He was so surprised that he was speechless.
"That's right, to serve from the opposite serving device, you need to hit them all over the net with a long stick, a total of thirty, don't forget."
For this reason, Alain Bu checked it, the ball hit from the serving device is basically a high lob ball, continuous launch, the force is not large, the ball is also a leather ball, very light, and the time is three hours, that is to say, in these three hours, there is no problem with how many times he wants to officially start, which makes him full of confidence. For this reason, Alain Bu seized the time to practice, and found that it was actually quite difficult to fight back, whether it was the size of the force or the direction, it should be no problem to find it slowly. However, what kind of test is this, it's so simple, Yuanhong Dada, you just said, "Alan Bu, little friend, I like you, why don't you be my disciple?" I'm afraid that guy in the fourth round was also told by you to fuck off, right?
But spit and spit out, the ball still has to be played. While Alain Bu was practicing desperately, time was slipping away quietly, and if it weren't for the examiner's reminder every 30 minutes, I'm afraid he would have been playing like this forever. When a third of the time passed, Alain Bu felt that he was slowly finding his senses, so he asked the examiner to take the exam officially. The trajectory of the ball spit out of the service device was probably clear, but despite this, he couldn't hit all the balls back. Alan Bu spread out on the ground, gasping for air, the hot sweat on his body was pouring out, his hands were sore, and he couldn't move, which was even more tiring than playing a confrontation match, he had never done such a high-intensity exercise, and it was estimated that his body was almost overwhelmed.
Alain Bu decided to fight for the last hand. It doesn't matter if the balls go over the net or not, he just needs to hit them all back, and he will have no regrets if he works hard. Watching each ball fly high in front of him, Alain Bu rekindled his last hope. Until the service device stopped spitting out, Alain Bu staggered to the ground, unable to even grasp the long stick, and his eyes were almost unable to open with hot sweat. The examiner recorded the results on the side, and then took away the balls scattered on the ground, and did not tell him, because the last decisive factor had to be judged by Yuan Hong.
But, is that a delusion? Did you really hit thirty balls yourself?
A few white marshmallows lay alone in the sky, and the orioles flew to the old locust tree and sang loudly, as if they still had a soft spot for them. When Yuanhong appeared on the announcement table of the True Martial Hall, everyone's mood immediately became uneasy. Although some people already knew that they had not been able to pass the test, they knew that the final decision was up to Yuanhong, and they would not give up until the last hammer was hit.
"Next, I will read out the names of the finalists, and the people whose names are read are invited to stand in front, and among the eight people, there are three people who have been included in the True Martial Palace, namely Cai Wei, Yin Ziyi, and Alan Bu."
Did I hear me right? Have I passed? Alain Bu couldn't believe his ears, but it was his name. There was no joy in his heart, but he followed the other two with a blank face.
"Then, if there is no objection, the three of you will be a member of this True Martial Arts Hall in the future (do a good job), and you will also be the person who will be awarded martial arts by my Yuanhong (how many sessions), tomorrow is a free day, go back and prepare well, and return here on time the day after tomorrow to report." The rest of the people can leave on their own (who cares about you), and this is the end of today's business, and the meeting is adjourned! As soon as Yuan Hong finished speaking, he hurriedly slipped away under the blazing gaze of everyone.
Later, Alain Bu and others introduced themselves to each other, and it was rare for everyone to get together and get acquainted, which was also fate. Seeing the busy figure of everyone going their separate ways, Alain Bu could finally breathe a sigh of relief, put aside his worries, and planned to pack his bags and go home.
