In the process of watching the battle, Elder Sun had already held back his words.

He couldn't wait to stand up and said in a sharp tone: "Li Zixuan, if I'm not mistaken, the sword technique you use is called the 'Falling Rain Sword', and his fist technique is 'Lion Roar Fist'. In the battle you just had, you made at least three fatal mistakes. If you make one less mistake, you might have a chance to win.

"First of all, the timing of your use of the 'Falling Rain Sword' starting style was wrong, and at that time he happened to use the second and only defensive move of the 'Lion's Roar Fist' - it was enough to resist more than seventy percent of your sword intent, making your efforts in vain.

"Secondly, you don't need to try to predict where he's moving when he's gaining momentum – because the monk can't move at all when 'Lion's Roar' is accumulating punch intent. You've lost at least three swords because of this.

"Also, I can't understand at all, when you cast the last sword, your opponent is standing less than a foot away in front of you, and you can actually split the sword crookedly?

"Is it because he beat you too hard just now, causing your mentality to collapse, your movements are deformed, and you can't even hold the sword steadily? With your fragile psychological quality, wouldn't it be directly scare to pee when you encounter powerful ghosts on missions in the future?

“……”

Elder Sun talked endlessly for a long time, and in front of the public, he pointed out all the problems that existed in the process of Li Zixuan's swordsmanship in a stern manner.

If before that, Li Zixuan had just suffered a physical beating; Then at this moment, he received countless mental critches.

The "Falling Rain Sword" that he was proud of was so flawed in front of Elder Sun.

Self-confidence vanished in an instant.

He struggled to get up from the ground with his hands on the ground, his head drooping and his eyes glazed.

Gu Xu glanced at Elder Sun, and saw that the more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his nose was on fire and his mouth was foaming. It seems that in the process of finding fault with others, he feels endless fun.

After Elder Sun's comments came to an end, Gu Xu pondered for a moment and said lightly: "Actually, Li Zixuan's last sword splitting the air is not his own problem. ”

"Whose problem is that?" Elder Sun frowned.

With his arrogant and arrogant character, he hated it when others denied his views, especially being refuted in person by an excessively young low-realm monk like Gu Xu.

"If I'm not mistaken, in addition to the 'Lion's Roar Fist', Yao Xiao also has a secret method called 'Illusion Technique', which is able to interfere with the opponent's perception and make the opponent hallucinate," Gu Xu explained, "In the process of releasing it, a faint silver-white light will light up in the monk's eyes.

"Yao Xiao used this 'illusion technique' to make Li Zixuan misjudge his position.

"That's the key to his success."

Elder Sun did not respond.

He just squinted his eyes and looked at Yao Xiao standing in the ring - he didn't seem to expect that a muscular hunk like Yao Xiao, who looked like five big and three thick, would still have such insidious tactics.

Yao Xiao in the ring was also stunned for two seconds.

He didn't expect that Gu Xu would be able to see through his killer feature at a glance from such a distance.

You must know that Yao Xiao has been working hard and planning for a long time in order to achieve a good result in the "Luoshui Conference".

On the surface, he disguised himself as a "rough man" character, and used straightforward and unfancy martial arts like "Lion Roar Boxing" to make others think that he was taking the reckless route of "breaking ten meetings with one force".

But in fact, he quietly learned the "Soul Technique" that can create illusions, the "Soul Suppression Technique" that can slow down the opponent's thinking, and the "Concealment Technique" that can conceal his true aura, and so on.

These spells all have one characteristic: they don't have bells and whistles, and they don't need to be triggered by chanting a spell. If you don't look closely, it's hard to be noticed.

In the process of fighting just now, Yao Xiao was standing directly in front of Li Zixuan.

However, under the effect of "phantom magic", Li Zixuan mistakenly thought that Yao Xiao was standing in front of him on the left, so he missed with a sword, and then Yao Xiao seized the opportunity and knocked out of the ring with a punch.

Li Zixuan, who was not far away, was also emotional.

As a nine-rank petty official at the headquarters of the Exorcism Division, he has always been full of admiration in his heart for Gu Xu, who saved Qingzhou Mansion and won the championship in the Lantern Festival Ring Competition.

He originally thought that Gu Xu was only at the peak of the Fu Seal technique, and he was only at the level of an ordinary genius in other fields.

I didn't expect him to have such a wide range of knowledge.

His understanding of the world's Dao Dharma and martial arts was even better than that of a Fifth Realm cultivator like Elder Sun.

At this time, Gu Xu stood up from his seat, with a faint smile on his face, looked at Li Zixuan and said, "Li Jishi, in my personal opinion, your swordsmanship moves are exquisite, closely connected, and continuous like spring rain. You must have put a lot of effort into practicing to achieve this level of proficiency.

"However, in actual battles, it is often necessary to know oneself and one's opponent in order to survive a hundred battles. You can't just devote yourself to your own martial arts, but you also have to try to learn about other Dao cheats and the ways others might fight.

"As a spell that overcomes rigidity with softness, the 'Falling Rain Sword' actually has a strong restraint effect on Yao Xiao's 'Lion Roar Fist' - its third form is just able to silently resolve the second and fourth forms of the 'Lion's Roar Fist'.

"But, perhaps because you didn't know much about 'Lion's Roar,' you missed two very crucial chances to win."

Hearing Gu Xu's words, Li Zixuan took a deep breath, then clasped his hands into fists, bowed to Gu Xu and said, "Your Majesty thanks Lord Gu for your teaching. ”

Because of the large number of participants, the audition of the "Luoshui Conference" was extremely harsh.

If you lose just one game in the first round, you will be completely disqualified.

However, when Li Zixuan left the ring and returned to the vast sea of people, his frustration disappeared unknowingly.

In his eyes, there was even joy in his eyes.

Li Zixuan can be regarded as a martial idiot.

Since he worked hard in the Exorcism Division and saved enough merits to exchange for the medium-grade martial arts "Falling Rain Sword", he has practiced hard day and night, regardless of wind or rain, and does not rest, just hoping that one day he will be able to make a splash and show his might.

However, even if Li Zixuan practiced every style of "Falling Rain Sword" to the point that he couldn't be more familiar, he still lost most of his private heads-up battles with his colleagues.

He couldn't figure it out.

He has always felt that his dismal results are not worthy of his long-term hard work.

And today, when Gu Xu pointed out the reason sharply, Li Zixuan suddenly became enlightened, and the depression in his heart was untied.

"It's no wonder that although Lord Gu only has the cultivation of the third realm, he is highly valued by the head of the division, and he can sit in the same seat as the elders of the Crazy Sword Sect of the fifth realm," he praised again and again in his heart, "This kind of talent, this kind of vision, and this kind of insight are comparable to the reincarnated immortals." ”

Then, Gu Xu turned his head to look at Yao Xiao who was standing in the ring, and said to him: "Yao Shaoxia, I personally think that under the premise that the rules allow, all tactics that can win are good tactics. However, if there is not enough hard power to support it, any means and any tricks are just castles in the air.

"In the battle just now, you combined the two completely different styles of martial arts of 'Lion Roar Fist' and 'Illusion Technique'. I really appreciate your approach.

"However, you can't spend too much time and energy studying issues like 'how to deceive your opponent' and neglect the practice and consolidation of the martial arts itself.

"I've noticed that the connection between the fourth and fifth forms of your 'Lion Roar Fist' is still relatively stiff, and the proficiency is obviously a little worse than the other moves. Fortunately, Li Zixuan doesn't know much about 'Lion Roar Boxing', otherwise if he seized the opportunity, the result of this competition might be different.

"In addition, in the round after round of selection of the 'Luoshui Conference', the opponents you will encounter will only get stronger and stronger - their eyes may even be more vicious than mine.

"The activation of the 'Phantom Magic' may be hidden enough, but it is only a medium-grade spell, and it is not a secret that is not unspoken, and there are not many people who know about it.

"If you rely too much on it, they're likely to take advantage of it and set a trap for you.

"That's some personal advice for you!"

After Gu Xu finished speaking, Yao Xiao also bowed to him, and said, "Thank you Lord Gu for your guidance!" ”

It's just that the expression on his face didn't fluctuate, and I don't know if he listened next.

For the next half hour or so, the cultivators entered the ring in pairs according to the results of the pre-draw of lots, with the winner advancing and the loser eliminated.

Gu Xu, Yang Jiong, and Elder Sun Mao sat on the city gate and watched the battle quietly.

Whenever a duel was over, Elder Sun would stand up excitedly and make a generous statement with an extremely critical and strict attitude.

Basically, after listening to his "poisonous tongue comments", every contestant will become gray and pale.

In contrast, Gu Xu's comments are more "high emotional intelligence".

For example, when Elder Sun said, "Your move is full of flaws", Gu Xu will say, "Your move still has a lot of room for improvement";

For example, when Elder Sun said, "You use this sword technique indecently", Gu Xu would say, "You seem to have your own ideas in kendo";

For example, when Elder Sun said, "A person like you who is careless and leafy is not suitable for using the 'prosperous' knife technique that is famous for its complexity and meticulousness, and it is a mistake from beginning to end", Gu Xu would say, "Why don't you try the 'Overlord Knife Technique'!" A young monk like you, who has the air of a tyrant at first glance, should like this kind of martial arts that opens and closes and moves forward with indomitable progress."

For example, when Elder Sun said, 'It's obviously a rough man, but when he swings his sword, he is like a girl, soft and powerless,' Gu Xu would say, "Why don't you try to learn to draw talismans later, you may be more talented in talismans";

……

As for Yin Yangjiong of Luojing Mansion, he will sit on a chair and be a "mascot".

At the end of each duel, he either clapped or slapped his thigh to cheer for the winner.

His lines are also limited to the following lines: "good", "wonderful", "amazing", "you have opened the eyes of this official today", and so on.

After all, as a mortal, he couldn't even recognize the realm and moves of the monks, let alone comment on the details.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the last game of this morning.

In Gu Xu's opinion, this should be the highest-quality matchup this morning.

One of them was a female student at Longmen Academy, named Hu Xiaoyun. She has a delicate face, a thin figure, wearing the gray and white robe of the academy, her hair is coiled high, and she is fixed with a simple wooden hairpin, which is very bookish.

When her name was called, her gaze wandered, and she seemed a little nervous.

But Gu Xu noticed that she was holding a large stack of thick talisman seals in her hand—this undoubtedly showed that she was not a weak little girl, but a talisman cultivator with a lot of strength.

After stepping into the ring, Hu Xiaoyun pretended to glance at Gu Xu at the city gate casually, and then quickly lowered his head, his cheeks flushed with a faint flush.

Yin Yangjiong of Luojing Mansion was keenly aware of the girl's small movements.

He looked at Gu Xu with a smile and teased: "Master Gu, this little girl seems to be your admirer." ”

Gu Xu smiled and didn't speak.

He knew that since the much-anticipated Fu Dao dispute, most of the female students in Longmen Academy, as well as some male students, had become his fans—but he didn't know how many of them were Yan fans and how many were Mu Qiang fans.

The other was a tall young man.

He had a dark complexion, a scruffy beard, a bitter gourd face, and a listless look. Although it was written on the information that his age was thirty-five years old, Gu Xu always felt that this person looked forty or fifty years old.

From the information, Gu Xu learned that this person's name was Bai Chen, and he was a casual cultivator.

Since both of them were Third Realm cultivators, they belonged to the higher realms among today's contestants, so all the onlookers were full of expectations for their performance.

Although Hu Xiaoyun of Longmen Academy has a weak appearance, she is not soft at all when it comes to fighting.

As soon as the gongs and drums sounded, she quickly recited the incantation, and at the same time threw the three runes in her hand at her opponent in turn.

Gu Xu could see at a glance that the three talismans she used, one of which was a "fixation talisman", could fix the opponent in place for three seconds - it was not very powerful, but the advantage was that the spell was very short, and it could be effective almost instantly.

The other two sigils are both "Flame True Talismans" - as the name suggests, their role is to create flames and burn opponents.
