Chapter Eighty-Nine: Runic Contest
Coming to the rune competition venue, the courtyard master and others were already waiting here, and after seeing Luo Ying, Song Chunqiu smiled and signaled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Luo Ying stepped forward to greet him, but he turned a blind eye to Fan Jianqing and Qi Yantai on the side, and looked at each other wrongly.
"In this rune competition, there are only three people in our academy, and what results can be achieved depends on your kid!" Song Chunqiu encouraged with a smile.
Luo Ying knew that the results of the Famous Martial Arts Academy in the first two days were very unsatisfactory, and no one in the alchemy and forging could squeeze into the top three.
In this kind of nominal exchange competition, each item is not scored, and the final ranking of each school is evaluated by the head of the mansion and the representatives of the two sects and one house, these four people.
Although it is not possible to achieve 100% fairness, the strength of each school is clear at a glance, and it cannot be faked.
Therefore, if you want to rank high, you must stand out in the competition, at least let these four have an impression, and the top three can't get in, which is naturally equivalent to no results.
Whether it is the lord of the mansion or the representative of the two sects and one court, there will be a standard in his heart, and the battle on the last day is naturally the most important, but the competition in the previous days also directly affects the final ranking.
Of course, for many years, the Jinding Academy in Fucheng has been at the top of the list, and Mingwu is ranked about third from the bottom.
But this time, the two schools at the bottom of the ranking suddenly sprung up, and I don't know how to do it, they actually won the first place in alchemy and forging respectively, which is really surprising! Although the strongest beast taming and formation of the famous martial arts have not yet begun to compare, Song Chunqiu also hopes that Luo Ying can give everyone a surprise.
Today, Qianyi also came to watch with great interest, and he said indifferently: "Luo Ying, you kid have to pay attention to that Mu Feng, it is said that he is a rare rune genius in a hundred years, this time the reward for the soul washing pool, this person threatens to win." ”
Song Chunqiu sighed helplessly: "If there is no hope of winning the championship, don't be rash, you can keep the top three, try to get second, it's also very good." ”
Luo Ying was speechless for a moment, what is this like! Before he started to compare, he poured a basin of cold water on each person.
Isn't Mu Feng one of the three geniuses of the Jinding Academy? How can he even be able to do runes? In this way, the rune competition does not seem to be simple, at least it is necessary to compare this long-admired Mu Feng.
At this moment, more and more people had gathered, and suddenly, a commotion attracted Luo Ying's attention.
But soon he knew the cause of the commotion, and from some people's discussions, he heard that Mu Feng, one of the three genius students of the Jinding Academy, who had been mentioned in the past few days, appeared!
There is no need to identify it at all, it can be recognized at a glance, there is a man with a unique temperament in the crowd, this person must be Mu Feng.
This person's face is slightly pale, handsome and feminine, and his eyes are like poisonous snakes, which makes people look very uncomfortable.
"He is Mu Feng, try not to provoke. Qianyi mentioned in a low voice.
Luo Ying listened to it, and frowned slightly, he knew that Mr. Qian had good intentions, but he could compete on the same stage, each with his own ability, Lao Tzu was here to win the first, how could he not provoke others?
As soon as these people appeared, the audience suddenly became much quieter, and the conversation turned into whispers.
Even if Luo Ying didn't go to see the competition two days ago, it was not difficult to guess the identities of these people.
The supreme authority in the land of Changle Mansion, the lord of the house!
The three major forces that are all important in the realm of Gaochong County, the Sword Sect, the Wuji Dao Sect, and the people sent by the Qingtian Academy, they and the Mansion Master will be the final judge of this martial arts competition.
The group walked to the main seat, and the entourage was divided on both sides, and the four important people sat down one after another.
"The man wearing the crown on his head is the mansion master of Changle Mansion, the woman is the predecessor of the Sword Sect, and the other two men, the younger one is the Qingtian Academy, and the older one is the Wuji Dao Sect......"
Duan Xiaoxian introduced softly, Luo Ying listened and observed, the lord of the mansion always had a faint smile, talking and laughing with the other three, but Luo Ying felt that this person was smiling a little hypocritically, although he was dignified, but he was very much like a scheming person.
And the woman of the Sword Sect made Luo Ying take a deep breath, and she had a cold and unchanging face, as if she had never smiled in her life, as if everyone owed her money.
Although this woman is not ugly, she has nothing to do with beautiful words, and she carries a sheathed sword behind her, which is the unique attire of the Sword Sect, and the sword aura that is faintly visible around her body is extremely powerful.
Looking at the elders of the Wuji Dao Sect and the young people of the Qingtian Academy, they were obviously all advanced cultivators, but Luo Ying faintly felt that the zombie-faced woman was the most powerful of the four.
But this is just an intuition, with his current ability, he naturally can't see the cultivation of the four people.
At this time, an old man with lowered eyes slowly walked to the stage, and Luo Ying's eyes were instantly attracted by this person.
This person is coarsely clothed, and at first glance, he looks more like a country man, but what catches the eye is the breath on this old man's body, which seems to ripple all over his body, and when he goes to this station, it is like an extremely profound rune.
There was no need for him to make a move, Luo Ying felt that this person's rune accomplishments must be extremely profound, I don't know what level of rune master this is, it was the first time he encountered it, so he couldn't help but look at it twice.
And the old man seemed to feel something, and inadvertently glanced at it, and his gaze like an arrow flashed away.
But this glance made Luo Ying's heart move, and he was even more sure that this old man was by no means idle, I am afraid that not only the runes, but also the cultivation is unfathomable.
The old man didn't look at Luo Ying again, but said in a hoarse voice: "Today's rune competition is judged by me, let's talk about the rules first, in recent years, the old man has created a set of rune fingering ......"
There was no self-introduction, but everyone present listened very carefully, and from the respectful eyes of Song Chunqiu and others, Luo Ying was even more curious about the identity of this old man.
Of course, the important thing at the moment is the rune competition, which is divided into two rounds by about 40 students, the first round is the old man himself demonstrating the new rune fingering, and whoever understands it more will win.
The ten people with the highest understanding will enter the second round of free play, and they can choose any rune and any second-level weapon to divide the winner with the final rune effect.
The rules are very simple, and the intention is obvious, the first round is to look at the qualifications and understanding, some people have been studying the runes for a long time, but the qualifications are mediocre, even if the level of this kind of students is not bad, they can't enter the second round. Rune is a door, talent is essential, this is the natural threshold.
However, Luo Ying saw the other side, this old man said that he was judging, and he was not teaching everyone how to fingering in disguise?
Luo Ying couldn't help but have respect, this kind of competition, in other words, is also a kind of preaching.
When the old man finished explaining the rules, the competition began.
Forty people sat on the ground, and an isolation formation in the test hall was opened, so that the onlookers would not affect the students in the field.
I saw that the old man's lowered eyes opened suddenly, his eyes were full of light, and the momentum of the whole person changed suddenly, his fingers were vigorous and powerful, and he drew a circle in the air and dotted it on the void in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, the old man's long sleeves bulged, and his dry fingers exuded a deep vitality, drawing a strengthening charm in a fingering technique that Luo Ying had never seen before.
This strengthening talisman is the most basic talisman, but in the hands of the old man, it instantly becomes extraordinary, from the moment he dropped his fingers, Luo Ying was deeply attracted, as if a window in his heart was opened by Huo Ran.
"It's so difficult! can anyone really learn to draw like this?" Duan Xiaoxian's eyes widened, this kind of obscure fingering that contained the mystery of the rune was impossible for even a person with a strong memory to memorize, let alone demonstrate it soon.
Xu Rou also clenched her fists nervously and said, "Brother Win will definitely do it!"
Zhan Wushuang, who was not far away, looked over, and didn't say anything, but he admired Xu Rou very much, no matter when, she would trust Luo Ying unconditionally, and the trust between people can really surpass everything......
Laymen look at the excitement, insiders look at the doorway, there are a lot of people who come to watch the battle today, most of them are keen on the art of runes, even if they stand outside the field, they are staring intently at the old man's fingers.
In less than a pillar of incense, the old man's fingers suddenly flickered, and a knot hit the air. In an instant, an incomparably powerful strengthening talisman was completely presented, the silk lines were clearly visible, and the bursts of vitality were turbulent and undulating.
No one would doubt that if there was an elite weapon in front of him, and if he hit this rune on the weapon, the power would definitely increase exponentially.
"Is this a top-level rune master? The amplification effect may have reached 10%!"
Luo Ying came back to his senses, and was impressed by the old man's strengthening charm, this trip to the city, just seeing this person's move was worthwhile, he was already eager to try it immediately.
At this time, the old man slowly spoke: "Now it's your turn, no matter how much you comprehend, you must use this new fingering, runes and anything, let's start!"
At the beginning of the sound, many people have already taken out the prepared weapons, in such a short time, it is almost impossible to comprehend a new advanced fingering, and everyone is in a hurry to make a move, it is to use the part of the perception into the rune as soon as possible.
However, Luo Ying closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and replayed what he had just realized in his mind, and gradually, he forgot about the competition and entered the realm of "no thought". This unique fingering becomes clearer and clearer, and there is no distraction in my heart.
Mu Feng, who was sitting on the other side, looked around and found that only Luo Ying had not made a move, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and then he also took out a long sword and opened the rune.
And Luo Ying's abrupt performance once again attracted the attention of the old man, who had a little surprise in his eyes, he seemed to feel a trace of the aura of the Runic Avenue around Luo Ying, but he couldn't believe that this feeling would appear in a student.
