"Nicole, I think you're a bit rude tonight, you're not usually like that."

On the bus back to White Eagle Mountain, Morando asked Nicole.

"Shouldn't you care about my hands first?"

"I've seen it, don't worry, it's not a big deal." Morando waved his hand.

"Morando, I'm not in the mood to joke with you." Nicole said with her arms crossed, the streetlights outside the car kept backing up, and her face flickered and darkened.

"I just want to say that the martial arts competition has been held for so many years, and the most important thing is such gossip, ordinary people are always keen on it, but among these gossip, how many are true and how many are false? Nine falsehoods and one truth, one is overestimated, you don't need to take those rumors to heart. ”

"But whether it's true or not, its impact is there, and these rumors will damage the reputation of the senior sister." Nicole argued.

"Nicole, don't you understand?"

Morando sighed and said earnestly: "In the secret martial arts world, reputation is indeed very important, but it is never the most important, strength is, only if your fists are hard enough, and the rumors will naturally be self-defeating, will others be willing to listen to you?" Nicole, you know, the weak have no voice. ”

"Morando, you have a lot of words, you are verbose, who doesn't understand the truth? I'm in a temper, you know? If the temper can be suppressed, it is not called a temper, and can a person who practices martial arts not have a temper? ”

"With your temper, sooner or later you're going to get into trouble." Morando shook his head.

Nicole gave him a blank look.

"So, what do you think I've been practicing martial arts so hard for?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Knock knock, knock knock on the door.

Gong Bing slowly finished his work, let out a long sigh of relief, took the towel on the back of the chair, and walked over to open the door while wiping the sweat on his body.

"Gabriel, so you were just practicing?" Standing outside the door was Vickers.

"Or else?" After Gong Bing opened the door, he turned around and walked behind the bar, opened the refrigerator, and picked out a bottle of drink casually.

In addition to the sofa TV in the front hall, there is a small bar counter in the corner, and a large refrigerator with double doors stands behind the bar.

"I thought you were too lazy to sleep, and I thought I'd come over and call you to get up for breakfast." Vickers scratched his head and followed into the room.

"Gabriel, tell you something."

After sitting down on the couch face to face, Vickers spoke, and Gong Bing nodded to him to continue.

"Remember Nicole last night? I was a little concerned about her hostility towards you, so I went out to inquire after waking up early this morning. ”

Because of the martial arts competition, not only the mansion where Gong Bing is located is full of people, but even other nearby mansions are no exception, so it is not difficult to find someone to ask about things.

"Gabriel, now there are almost all the secret martial arts sects in the country gathered here in the White Eagle Gate, and now there are some rumors about you among the martial artists, saying that you are a genius disciple of Luo Wuxin, with extraordinary talent and superb strength, and some records that seem to be chasing after the wind and shadows."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Gong Bing replied casually.

"But now this kind of rumor is becoming more and more exaggerated, and it is clear that someone is deliberately hyping up and wanting everyone to stare at you, in order to kill you." Vickers said solemnly: "The main thing is that they also said that you can easily defeat the quasi-Heaven Rank, and your strength can directly catch up with the Heaven Rank Martial Artists, and you can compete with Scarlett and Elkeson. ”

"Who are Scarlett and Elkeson?"

"You don't even know either of them?"

"Should I know them?" Gong Bing lay down and spread his hands.

"Scarlett and Elkeson are the strongest of the young generation of the White Eagle Gate and the Heroic Martial Arts Association respectively, and they are the stars of this martial arts competition." Vickers gave a brief introduction and continued.

"No, Gabriel, now is not the time to talk about this, I think you should think more about who you have offended recently, why there are such rumors, I am worried that it will affect the competition and affect the final ranking of the martial arts hall."

"I don't know, I've offended a lot of people, you sit down first, I'll take a shower."

Gong Bing replied perfunctorily, then drank the drink in his hand in one gulp, threw it into the trash, and went into the bathroom without looking back.

Vickers looked at Gong Bing's back and shook his head helplessly.

Gong Bing and they arrived a day and a half early, and now it's been a night, so the martial arts competition will not officially start until tomorrow, and there will be a simple draw ceremony tonight to prepare for tomorrow's individual competition distribution arrangements.

The martial arts competition is actually divided into two parts, one is an individual competition, and the other is a sect challenge.

The individual competition, as the name suggests, is to participate in the competition as an individual, and determine the strongest through one-on-one competitions.

Due to the age limit in the individual competition, all the first players are also called the strongest of the younger generation.

As for the Sect Challenge, it is a competition based on the sect.

In Tutlane, there is a ranking between the Miwu sect and the family, and this ranking is determined by the martial arts competition held every two years.

The level of ranking will affect the status of one's own forces, and will also affect the tilt of various rules, the exchange of rights, and the distribution of benefits.

Because each Miwu sect and family is an economic aggregate, it itself represents a huge network of interests, and if you want to mix well in Tutlan and mix well, you must strive to fight for a better ranking in the martial arts competition.

As a young representative of Luo Wu, Gong Bing will participate in both the individual competition and the sect challenge.

Each mansion has a restaurant, and the chefs and waiters in the restaurant are all on standby 24 hours a day, ready to serve food to the warriors.

After taking a shower, Gong Bing went out with Vickers to the restaurant, where Gong Bing met Gate and Rowling, and several friends who had become disciples of the same class met again.

In addition to the two of Gat, Gong Bing also saw Luo Xiaohu, Luo Xiaodie, Ma Xiaolong, and the most surprising thing to him was that even his cheap disciple Fias also came.

Since Gong Bing accepted her as a disciple, Fias naturally became a member of Luo Wu, you must know that in Luo Wuli, in addition to the disciples who have left the school, there are very few official people who remain in the martial arts hall (those children who have paid money and used their after-school holidays to practice martial arts are not counted), who has let the curator have no intention of developing and expanding the martial arts hall?

So it's normal for Luo Xiaohu to bring her over to see the world, so it's good to have a good time and add some popularity, right?

However, Gong Bing didn't see Director Luo Dakai, and Luo Xiaohu said that he was on the White Eagle Mountain.

There was nothing to do during the day, but more and more secret warriors rushed to the White Eagle Gate, making the whole lake lively.

The mansion, the paths, and the lake were full of people visiting each other, shouting and fighting, some of them for the sake of discussion, and some of them were trying to resolve conflicts.

As a member of the Tutlan Secret Martial Arts Circle, the Luo Clan Martial Arts Hall is naturally not exempt from vulgarity, and from time to time someone will come to the door to communicate, and a considerable number of them are coming to Gong Bing.

As Dabi approached, the rumors about Gong Bing did not stop, but tended to intensify.

At the beginning, it was only said that Gong Bing was talented and powerful, and he could compete with Scarlett and Elkeson, but now it has evolved to the extent that Gong Bing can fight against two.

So these people are obviously gossiping, but they actually want to take the opportunity to become famous, Gong Bing is now full of traffic, even if he just has a trick with him, he can get a lot of popularity.

Due to the absence of the curator, as the eldest son and the future heir of Luo Wu, these visitors and challengers were all received by Luo Xiaohu.

Luo Xiaohu's heart is like a mirror, he is clear about the careful thinking of these people, and naturally he will not agree to the request of the exchange, he knows that Gong Bing is also annoyed by this kind of person, so he refuses them all, and he doesn't even give these people the opportunity to meet.

Tomorrow is the big competition, when you are in the ring, you can fight as much as you want, what do you mean by getting together one or two now?

There are people who are kind and qualified to sign up for the big competition a long time ago, and now these people who come to the door are just some opportunistic and timid gamblers.

Vickers watched these people come and go, and there was an endless stream of people coming to visit, and if no one deliberately spread rumors, fanned the flames in secret, and killed Vickers, he wouldn't believe it.

Vickers told his companions about his worries, but Gart and Rowling reacted flatly, acting as if they were listening to celebrity scandals, which was not a problem at all.

As for the others, their reactions were similar, one or two looking at him with 'calm' and 'too young, too simple' eyes, as if he was worrying about himself.

"Let's just say that you are a worrying person, what is there to worry about, we are martial artists, not debaters, why do you want to do so much?

The most important thing you should do now is to put your mind on tomorrow's big competition, and don't forget, you are also a contestant. Ma Xiaolong put his arm around Vickers' shoulders and said, he spent most of his time hanging up, and it was rare for him to look like a team leader.

"Say a thousand things and ten thousand, as a martial artist, you still have to rely on your strength to speak in the end." Luo Xiaohu is still the same, the old god is there, and he said while sending the visitor.
