In the round of 16, Ye Shuai inexplicably won Wang Jian to enter the quarterfinals, and in the final list of the top eight, Ye Shuai even saw the name of an old "familiar" person.

After three rounds of matches on October 2, Ye Shuai immediately found Li Lanzhen and wanted to find Wang Jian, just as Li Lanzhen also wanted to find him, the two went to Wang Jian's room together, and knew from Li Lanzhen that Wang Jian was also a civilian, so he lived in a civilian eight-person room, and when he arrived at the door of Wang Jian's dormitory, he heard that Wang Jian went to the Daming Lake in the east of the martial arts arena.

Ye Shuai and Li Lanzhen walked side by side on the road next to Daming Lake, Ye Shuai asked Li Lanzhen if his opponents in the ring were all arranged by him in advance, Li Lanzhen generously admitted it, and told him that in the top 16, except for Wang Jian, who was not successfully bought, the others have been successful.

Ye Shuai asked Li Lanzhen why he did this, did he not trust his strength so much? Li Lanzhen only said one sentence, no matter how strong or weak you are, what I want is to make sure that you are foolproof.

Yeshuai was speechless all the way, and Li Lanzhen walked quietly... Walking and walking, Ye Shuai saw Wang Jian standing with his hands under the five pines on the shore of the lake, overlooking Daming Lake from afar. Ye Shuai said "He is in front", trotted towards Wang Jian, Li Lanzhen's eyes moved slightly, remembered the report that the shadow guard had reported to him before, and walked aloud and said, "A small town on the northern border of Northern Zhao is named Ganquan, which has been invaded by the northern barbarians all the year round, and the lord of Northern Zhao is not very disturbed, and has repeatedly dispatched troops to sweep away the thieves, but with little effect. Until 30 years ago, a person with a sword and the strength of the great star rank killed the master of the middle heaven in seconds, chased to the enemy territory for 30 miles, and strangled thousands of enemies; on the way back, he encountered two masters of the great heaven rank and attacked together, broke and killed him, but this person was also seriously injured and did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the Zhao border was able to be peaceful for ten years. Twenty years ago, the thief's heart was not dead and his overall strength was restored better than before, and he gathered five great heavenly positions to lead more than 2,000 people to invade the Zhao border again, and this time, the thieves all died halfway before they reached the border. Since then, no one in northern Zhao has dared to violate the border. ”

"I can't think of the old past, I have forgotten it, and I was also found out by Li Gongzi, and the Red Shadow Guard under Gongzi is really worthy of his reputation. Wang Jian seemed to have known that they would come to him, so he was not surprised at all, and said very calmly.

"I know the strength of Ye Shuai, these four hundred and thirty people should not have someone who can defeat him, originally the Red Shadow Guard reported to me, only found that you are from Ganquan Town, Zhao State, and there is no other information, according to the age, it is initially suspected that you are the person of the year. Originally, I didn't expect that the one who could easily kill the five Great Heavenly Positions would still be the Great Star Ranks. It wasn't until I saw that my senior's swordsmanship was extraordinary and he easily defeated Ye Shuai that I was sure that it was my senior. At this time, Li Lanzhen did not have the arrogance of others, and some of them were respectful.

"Oh, I'm sure that there are no people who have defeated him, and you have to waste fourteen places to recruit them to pave the way for this kid," Wang Jian was a little stunned when he heard what Li Lanzhen said.

Li Lanzhen smiled faintly and said, "What I want is not certainty, what I want is foolproof, but I didn't expect that there would still be a variable of seniors, and I didn't expect that you would be willing to help us without agreeing to my conditions, so where can things in this world be as expected." ”

"Isn't it more meaningful that things in the world can't be as expected, and the world is full of accidents and magic?" Wang Jian laughed with his hands on his hips.

"Haha, what the predecessor said is very reasonable, I also think so" Ye Shuai was shocked by Wang Jian's deeds, and surprised by Li Lanzhen's dedication to himself, and said to Wang Jian, "The deeds of the predecessors are shocking, I was still sorry for the defeat under the hands of the seniors, but now it seems to be extremely normal, kill one person in ten steps, do not stay for thousands of miles, go to the clothes after the incident, hide deep in the body and name, and think about it." ”

Wang Jian stroked his beard, laughed, pointed at Ye Shuai and said with a smile, "Don't praise me, boy, I'm very proud." You are very good, you are a master of swordsmanship, and there are only a handful of people who can still pick me up one or two in the big star position, you are very good. ”

"Hehe, seniors, don't praise me, I'm also very proud," Ye Shuai scratched his head and smiled.

"Haha, you kid, have an appetite for me"

Li Lanzhen looked at this and laughed at the old and the young, shook his head, a pair of idiots... interrupted, "Senior, I have a question, I want you to solve my doubts, I don't know if it's okay?"

Wang Jian restrained his smile when he heard this, and said with a straight face, "Do you want to ask me why I deliberately lost even though I didn't agree to your conditions?" Seeing Li Lanzhen nodding, Wang Jian continued, "Although I don't agree with your approach, I recognize your sincerity, that's all." ”

"Okay, I want to invite you to join me again and give me the title of the giant, no, wait for me to show my father and the marquis, do you see if it?" Li Lanzhen took a step back and said respectfully with his hands.

"Haha, Gongzi Gaoyi, it's a real son! It's just that the old man is idle and wild, and the guards are all in Ganquan, what's the use of asking for these things outside the body?

"Ah, you're leaving tonight, you're in such a hurry, why? I still want to give you the Seven Star Soul Refining Talisman tomorrow, and I want to worship you as a teacher. Ye Shuai was shocked when he heard this, and eagerly asked a series of questions.

"Haha, send me the seven-star soul refining talisman, you kid is also sincere, it is commendable, no wonder Li Gongzi is so attentive to you, it's just that this seven-star soul refining talisman is forgotten. In the past, I only studied swordsmanship, and it was the same whether I had a war soul or not, but now that I'm older, I feel a little powerless when I move a little, and I have to find a war spirit to supplement my power, as for this war soul star, it's okay to leave it to you young people. Wang Jian smiled.

"As for the apprenticeship you mentioned, it doesn't have to. The Tao should not be passed on lightly, those who learn others are ultimately others', and those who have realized it themselves are the best. Besides, I haven't learned any advanced swordsmanship, you can learn everything I know, and there is no swordsmanship that can teach you. Wang Jian waved his hand and said.

"But your swordsmanship is so powerful, how can you not have advanced swordsmanship," Ye Shuai said eagerly.

"Hehe, who said that swordsmanship must be advanced swordsmanship, and simple swordsmanship cultivation to the extreme is the highest level"

"Although you and I have no master-apprentice relationship, but after all, when there is a fate, I will send you eight words, very affectionate for the sword, and the movement is appropriate. ”

Ye Shuai thought for a moment and nodded, "The teachings of the seniors, the juniors remember"

"In fact, with the talent of the predecessors, it will be more dazzling to attract the soul of war into the body early," I only heard Li Lan say sincerely.

"Haha, dazzling? What's the use, to become famous, to retire to the mountains and forests, or to pursue immortality, or to pursue godhood? For me, it is enough to be born to practice swordsmanship, and to be able to protect the safety of one party in my lifetime, and the more I ask, the more I may be more burdensome. ”

"That's it, the matter is done, the old man will leave, and you two don't have to send each other off. ”

"Night boy, when you have time to come to my Ganquan Town, find me Wang Mazi, I invite you to drink wine and eat meat, if Li Gongzi doesn't dislike it, you can also have a piece" Wang Jian turned his back to the two of them, waved his hand, and walked slowly towards the teleportation array outside the martial arts arena.

"Definitely, we'll invite you to drink when the time comes," Ye Shuai said loudly as he looked at Wang Jian's back.
