Volume 1 Chapter 119 Promotion
Chapter 119: Promotion
Su Quan's back was cold, knowing that he had been defeated.
It's not that her swordsmanship is not perfect, it's just that Ma Xie's magical body trick confused Su Quan, she thought that she would seriously injure Ma Xie if she cut it with a sword, but she didn't expect Ma Xie's fish-like body to dodge her own sword, and she also used her sword moves to create a "dead end", so she easily defeated herself.
Compared to the previous battle, the scene of this battle seems to be less intense, but those who are proficient in swordsmanship can see that this is a very thrilling battle, if Ma Xie is a little slower by half a point, then his waist may be cut off by the sword in Su Quan's hand!
After this game, Ma Xie sat firmly at the top of the group, and his odds in the casino also soared, becoming a player at the same level as Su Quan.
The second day's game was over quickly, and everyone returned to their dormitories exhausted, and then it was the brutal knockout round, Ma Xie didn't know who his opponent was, and he would know the answer early tomorrow morning, so he didn't bother to ask.
Back in Danyang Hall, the other senior brothers were already waiting for him in the hall, and a long table was set up above the hall, which was full of food.
"Little junior brother, you're finally back!" Zhou Tong pulled Ma Xie to sit in, "Today's celebration banquet, a few of us have been waiting for you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to go to the Spirit Gathering Array to practice, you are really a cultivator." !”
"Celebration feast?"
"Yes, all six of our Danyangtang people passed the group stage and entered the knockout round!" Zhou Tong said excitedly.
This time in the sect conference, Danyang Tang's results were very good, and they all passed the group stage, which has not been encountered for many years.
"I thought that junior brother, you had a little less chance of being promoted, but I didn't expect you to hide it deeply! You actually defeated Tie Hansheng and Su Quan and won the first place in the group!" Wu Dawei said excitedly.
Ma Xie smiled: "Isn't that because you took advantage of the fact that you didn't get a group with your senior brother?"
"Haha, can talk, I like it. Wu Dawei said happily.
At this time, Yun Hai and Fei Shao also walked in, and all the disciples stood up and gave up their position in the middle to Yun Hai.
Yun Hai had a smile on his face, said a few words of congratulations, and then walked away on the grounds that something was wrong, it seemed that he didn't like this kind of occasion.
Before leaving, Yun Hai took a special look at Ma Xie, as if he had something to say, but finally walked away.
Not long after Yunhai left, Fei Shao also quietly walked out, and it could be seen that the master and apprentice did not get along well with the rest of the disciples, and the strange thing was that Duanmu Xuan still did not appear.
While the brothers were all partying there, Ma Xie sneaked out of the hall and followed Fei Shao.
Fei Shao did not return to his residence, but went all the way to Shuiyuntang.
"Why did Fei Shao go to Shuiyun Hall?" Ma Xie was very curious in his heart, this Fei Shao didn't even say a word to the senior brothers on weekdays, could it be that there was a lover in Shuiyun Hall?
Ma Xie didn't guess wrong, under the moonlight, a figure came out of the side door of Shuiyun Hall, obviously a woman.
When Fei Shao saw the woman come out, he hurriedly walked over, and the two hugged each other tightly after saying a few words, and then the woman handed over something to Fei Shao, and hurriedly walked into Shuiyun Hall.
Looking at the back of the woman leaving, Ma Xie always felt a little familiar, but he didn't dare to get too close, Fei Shao was very vigilant, Ma Xie could only watch from a distance, and in any case, this was just Fei Shao's private feelings, Ma Xie had no interest in knowing.
After leaving Shuiyun Hall, Fei Shao still did not return to Danyang Hall, but wandered alone by the Sword Lake.
At this time, another figure appeared, and under the moonlight, Ma Xie clearly saw that the person who came turned out to be Fei Shao's master Yunhai.
Yunhai quickly walked up to Fei Shao, as if accusing Fei Shao of something, and Fei Shao also responded to Yunhai a few words, and the master and apprentice quarreled by the Sword Lake.
Ma Xie hid behind a tree not far away, he held his breath and quietly walked in, trying to hear what the master and apprentice were talking about.
But when Ma Xie approached, the quarrel between the two seemed to be over, and Yun Hai could only hear Yun Hai say: "You can think it out for yourself! Don't bother me! That woman can't stay!"
After that, Yunhai left in a huff.
Ma Xie suddenly remembered a woman in his heart-Huang Mirou! The back that came out of Shuiyuntang just now was clearly Huang Mirou's back!
Why is Huang Mirou here? Why did she have a private meeting with Fei Shao? Why did Yunhai say that Huang Mirou couldn't stay? Could it be that they had anything to do with the Huang family's murder case?
A cloud of suspicion rose from Ma Xie's heart, the Huang family, the sea of clouds, human smuggling, and black fire, these things seemed to be involved by a mysterious force.
Fei Shao also left immediately after Yunhai left, but he still did not return to Danyang Hall, but left Tianwu Sect.
Ma Xie didn't continue to follow, he had been out for too long to attract the attention of the other junior brothers.
After returning to Danyang Hall, Ma Xie bumped into the sea of clouds as soon as he entered the door.
"What did you do?" said Yun Hai, staring at Ma Xie.
"I'll go find Elder Zuo Qing and see why he didn't come here tonight. Ma Xie panicked, in fact, he knew that Zuo Qing was going to come over later.
Yun Hai looked at Ma Xie and said, "Zuo Qing has already come." ”
Ma Xie nodded and ran into the lobby.
"Stop!" Yun Hai suddenly called out to Ma Xie behind him.
Ma Xie turned around, "Is there anything else?" Elder Yun?"
"Your Jade Candle Sword Technique...... Very good. Yunhai said thoughtlessly.
"It's very nice. It's all taught by my master. Ma Xie responded.
Hearing this, Yun Hai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Practice hard, if there is anything you don't understand, you can come and ask me, I also know a little about this set of swordsmanship." ”
"Thank you, Elder Yun. The horse said and walked in.
"This kid...... What the hell is going on? Yunhai muttered to himself.
The knockout match began, and the remaining sixteen people were already elites below the third level of the Heavenly Martial Sect's Qi Refining Realm, and Wu Xuan gathered all the people together and re-drew lots.
Except for the "dark horse" of Ma Xie, the rest of the disciples are basically expected candidates, Ma Xie pinched the sign in his hand, and wrote a "No. 7" on it.
According to the rules, No. 7 is the No. 10 battle, and the one holding the No. 10 sign is the disciple of the old opponent named Tian Liang.
"I met him so soon...... Ma Xie felt a trace of excitement in his heart: "He should be very strong, and he finally met a decent opponent." ”
Ma Xie likes to fight, and likes to compete with people with similar strength, and this Tian Liang is exactly the opponent he is looking forward to.
And at this moment, Tian Liang also saw Ma Xie's fiery gaze, and he did not avoid it, and walked towards Ma Xie.
"You're Ma Xie?" Tian Liang said.
"Yes. ”
"Are you the worship of the merchants of Stone City?" Tian Liang suddenly asked.
Ma Xie nodded: "Is there any problem?"
Tian Liang suddenly laughed: "Of course there is a problem! Let me tell you, either let the Shicheng Chamber of Commerce get out of Tianwu City quickly, or leave an arm today!"
"I don't understand what you mean, I don't want the Chamber of Commerce in Stone City to leave Tianwu City, and I don't want to leave my arm. Ma Xie looked at Tian Liang and said, as soon as he heard this, he understood that this Tian Liang must also be an offering, and it was an offering invited by the merchants who were against Zhao Tianyou.
"It's really ridiculous, you are a little foreign disciple, you learn to be worshipped by others? Let's make a bet, if I win, you will take those guys from Shicheng out of Tianwu City! Qixiang Pavilion will also belong to me, how about it?" Tian Liang left with a word.
"What if I win?" asked Ma Xue.
"You won, it doesn't seem like that's possible!" said Tian Liang contemptuously.
"If I win, please also get out of Tianwu City with your Chamber of Commerce, and give me all your business, how about it?" Ma Xie said without backing down.
Tian Liang thought that he could drink back from Ma Xie with his own identity, but he didn't expect Ma Xie to be so ignorant, although the Tian family is not a top family in Tianwu Sect, but there are also several elder-level figures, and Tian Liang has recently leaned on a "big tree", and he is trying to make a good move, how can he tolerate Ma Xie being so arrogant?
"You wait! I'll make you regret it!" said Tian Liang and left.
Ma Xie shook his head, and he was very helpless in his heart, thinking that he could be a "worship" in peace, but he didn't expect things to come to the door like this.
However, as the worship of Shicheng, and the title of "Wings of Shicheng" given by the Lord of Shicheng himself, how could he watch the merchants of Shicheng being bullied in Tianwu City?
Fortunately, this Tian Liang made a bet with him, so that the matter was very simple, as long as Tian Liang could be defeated, all problems would be solved.
"How do I think that I have become a thug of silver unconsciously?" Ma Xie laughed at himself, saying that he would not become a "thug", but in the end he solved the problem in this way.
Perhaps for Ma Xie, this is the simplest and most effective way to solve the problem!
On the other side, Tian Liang is also looking forward to the battle with Ma Xie in the afternoon.
In Tian Liang's opinion, he has been silent for too long, he has never shown his true strength in front of everyone, in his opinion, even Li Junqun is not a great character, he has been practicing hard for many years, just to be able to make a splash in front of everyone, and this time there is Wu Pingtian of Xuanyangmen to watch the battle, as long as he wins the first place, then he will jump into the dragon gate and enter another world.
And the first battle of his fame will be given to this little junior brother who doesn't know the importance of it!
After planning a perfect script in his heart, a smile appeared on Tian Liang's face.
At this time, a person walked from under the stands and stood in front of Tian Liang.
"Senior Brother Ni, why are you here?" Tian Liang was flattered, and it was Ni Shuifeng who stood in front of him, that is, the "big mountain" that Tian Liang was leaning on.
"I'm here to see you, I heard that you fought against that horse evil from Danyang Hall in the afternoon?How is it??," Ni Shuifeng asked.
Tian Liang nodded desperately: "He has only been in the house for a few days, it is all up to luck to get to this point, I will not let you down." ”
Listening to Tian Liang's words, Ni Shuifeng smiled: "That's good, I just want to tell you that there is a big man who is very concerned about this battle, and I hope you will show a twelve-point state, Senior Brother Kong specially mentioned you in front of that big man, I hope you don't embarrass Senior Brother Kong and me." When he said this, Ni Shuifeng's expression suddenly became serious.
Tian Liang faintly felt that this matter didn't seem to be as simple as he thought, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only nod his head: "I will do my best not to disappoint Senior Brother Kong and Senior Brother Ni." ”
Ni Shuifeng pressed Tian Liang's shoulder with his hand and said, "It's not about trying your best, but you have to, understand? You have to let Ma Xie exert all his strength, understand?"
The huge oppressive force was transmitted to Tian Liang's body, making Tian Liang break out in a cold sweat, he didn't know why Senior Brother Ni and Senior Brother Kong paid so much attention to Ma Xie, which made him feel a little jealous in his heart.
"If you can win this match, I will give you an unexpected reward, if you lose without even testing the true strength of Ma Xie, then you don't need to see me in the future. With that, Ni Shuifeng left, leaving only Tian Liang who was standing there trembling.
