Chapter VI Selection
Chapter 6 Selection
Today is the day when the Zhou family selects participants for the Storm City Competition, early in the morning all the core personnel of the Zhou family are gathered in the martial arts training ground, Zhou Hui was too tired to forcibly break through yesterday, and by the time he arrived at the martial arts training ground, it was almost the same
It's time to start the journey, there is a platform next to the martial arts training ground, my father and other uncles are on the platform, and there is a person standing next to my father, although I don't see it clearly, but I should see that my fourth uncle should be my own.
"The fourth uncle also came back from outside?"
The fourth uncle is Zhou Lan, a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi formation, although his cultivation is not very high, but his mind is indeed very flexible, so the family let the fourth uncle be responsible for the business outside the Zhou family, so he is away all the year round, even Zhou Hui rarely sees him a few times a year, of course, for this selection The fourth uncle still brought his son Zhou Yi back to participate in the selection, Zhou Hui still likes the fourth uncle very much, because when the fourth uncle comes back, he will bring Zhou Hui a lot of interesting things, what elixir and other strange things, of course, because the fourth uncle is also well-informed outside all the year round, Zhou Hui likes to listen to the fourth uncle give him the outside world, what kind of cultivators outsideγ Zhou Yi played with Zhou Hui when he was a child, because it was too young for the fourth uncle to take Zhou Yi with him, so he left him at home, and he mixed with Zhou Hui since he was a child, and gradually grew up The fourth uncle took him with him, and Zhou Hui didn't see him a few times a year, but the relationship between the two brothers was still very deep.
When everyone saw Zhou Hui coming over at this time, Zhou Ming frowned, "This bastard boy is getting more and more lazy, such an important thing will come today, I am really angry." When the selection is over, you must teach this bastard a good lesson. β
Zhou Lan looked at Zhou Hui who was walking in the distance and smiled kindly, "Hui'er, are you lazy again? β
"Fourth uncle, you're back, this time you have to talk about the outside world, I'm going crazy when I stay here, Zhou Yi, why don't you see my brother come over and hug one." As he spoke, he stepped forward and hugged Zhou Yi warmly. Zhou Yi was more natural, so he was embarrassed to scratch his head and stand with a smile.
"Genius, it's just different, even my father came so early, but let so many of us wait for you, you are really a genius, a genius is a genius but so arrogant, and your character is really not good. Big brother, you have to teach this son of yours how to be a man when you go home. Zhou Zhong sneered from the side.
Zhou Hui outlined to speak, and was pulled behind by his father, Zhou Ming stepped forward and said: "How can I call my son still can't speak for you, besides, I am the head of the Zhou family, and you haven't had the share to speak here, if you don't accept it, you will play a fight with me, if you win, the head of the family will give it to you, how about it?" Zhou Ming also knew that his younger brother had always coveted the position of the head of the Zhou family, but his strength was not as good as his own, and he never had a chance, and he only occasionally played some tricks in secret.
"A joke, how can the eldest brother take it seriously" Zhou Gan would not be stupid enough to fight with Zhou Ming, and could only laugh and make a round for himself. But in his heart, he was muttering, "I want your father and son to look good for a while"
At this time, an arrogant old man in the middle of the stage spoke: "Okay, since everyone is here, Ming'er, let's start." "This old man is Zhou Hui's grandfather Zhou Langtian, who is a master who stepped into the Jindan stage at the peak of the late stage of the Jiedan, and the old men of the four major families in the entire Storm City have such a similar cultivation.
"The purpose of this competition is to participate in the Storm City Big Competition, divided into two groups, sixteen years old and then divided into a group to select three people, seventeen to twenty years old divided into a group to select two people, through the lottery to determine the order of the competition, okay, now everyone come up and draw lots in turn. Zhou Ming said loudly.
In the middle of the week, he is in charge of the lottery of the participants, and he is responsible for the lottery of the participants in each selection. There was a bustle, and everyone got their own game labels.
The game was also carried out vividly, but every time it was Zhou Hui's turn to take the stage, the opponent must admit defeat before he started, which made Zhou Hui very unhappy, but who wants to fight with the perverted genius of the Zhou family, it is definitely a loss, it is better to admit defeat so as not to be abused. Every time he saw someone draw Zhou Hui, he shook his head helplessly, walked on stage, admitted defeat, and then walked off the stage. Alas, Zhou Hui is also very helpless, the height is unbearable, and he is a little proud. Ha ha.
Finally, Zhou Hui waited helplessly until there were only four people left, Zhou Hui, Zhou Meng, Zhou Shuang, Zhou Hu, looking at the remaining four people, Zhou Gan was also a little proud, you see the remaining four people, Lao Tzu's two sons are inside. What's so great about Zhou Hui being a genius, there is only one Zhou Ming's family, hum!
"Okay, there are only four people under the age of sixteen left, one person is eliminated from among you, and the remaining three are candidates under the age of sixteen from our Zhou family to participate in the big competition, okay, Zhou Hu, you will draw lots first. Zhou Ming introduced the rules of the game, and Zhou Hu walked towards Zhou Gan and handed one to Zhou Gan. Zhou Gan glanced at everyone and said, "Zhou Hu drew Zhou Shuang." Then he threw the sign with Zhou Hui written on it back into the box, and sneered in his heart, "Look at how powerful you Zhou Hui is, I will let your father and son lose face." β
Zhou Shuang is dark for a while now, his luck is really good, he will definitely not be able to beat Zhou Hui, and it is impossible to fight with his brother, but Zhou Hu only broke through to the fourth layer of qi training a few days ago, I should be able to win him and get a place, isn't this a place for myself. Zhou Hu, who was smiling happily in his heart, walked over the stage.
"Zhou Hu, you admit defeat, you know that you are not my opponent, lest you hurt you without eyes with your fists and feet, and everyone will not look good. As soon as he came to the stage, he pointed at Zhou Hu and said
"Who said I was going to lose, it's not how I know. Zhou Hu clenched his fists and was eager to try, he had been cultivating hard in the past few days, and his cultivation at the fourth level of Qi cultivation had also stabilized, he was thinking about seeking revenge on the three brothers of Zhou Meng.
"Well, since you're determined to hurt you somewhere, don't blame me for not warning you. Let you make the first move, lest you be called bullying you. Zhou Shuang stood proudly on the stage.
"Huh" Zhou Hu didn't say much, and he punched Zhou Shuang, it was still a collapse fist, but the power was faintly stronger than a few days ago.
"It's still so unmemorable, how can you hit me so slowly. As he spoke, the soles of his feet flashed to the side, and his palms quickly pushed out and slapped at Zhou Hu,
Zhou Hu missed a blow, and saw the palm wind that came over hurriedly turned around to resist, and hit both palms with both fists, and the sudden resistance only unloaded a few percent of the power, Zhou Hu staggered back five steps before barely stabilizing his body. Zhou Shuang also took a step back under the resistance of his fists. I was secretly shocked, "It's only been a few days since I saw this guy's strength increase again, I thought I could win it with one hit, but your strength is still not as good as mine, and you still have to lose." β
Zhou Hu couldn't care so much, and swung at Zhou Shuang with a punch, this punch was much faster than just now.
"I can't hit you this time. β
Zhou Shuang's figure flashed to the side and prepared to release the wind blade from a distance, but Zhou Husheng's fist wind that was close to him turned towards Zhou Shuang, Zhou Shuang gritted his teeth and made two wind blades, and then he also faced Zhou Hu with both fists with the wind blade, Zhou Hu felt that the oncoming wind blade stomped on the ground with both feet, and a dirt shield appeared in front of him, and the wind blade penetrated the earth shield but had no power, leaving two shallow scars on Zhou Hu's arms. didn't care about the injury and continued to pounce on Zhou Shuang, Zhou Shuang was also frightened by this madman's play, the pace under his feet gradually became messy, and the yuan force was gradually exhausted, on the other hand, Zhou Hu was brute force, and he didn't use any yuan force, so although there was a wound on his body, he was still in good spirits. Zhou Shuang was not careful, and before he could keep up, he was punched in the chest with both fists and flew out of the court, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.
Zhou Zhong saw that his son was thrown out of the field and was in a mess, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhou Shuang, turned his head and scolded Zhou Hu: "You little bastard, you are so heavy." Then he stopped and secretly glanced at Zhou Hu's mother Wu Yanli, and saw that Wu Yanli's affection had not changed, so he was about to say something again, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Zhou Hui's voice.
"Alas, it seems that there are a few catties and taels to see it, it's really fists and feet without eyes, it seems that the injury is not light, this is really cool. Zhou Hui said in the previous Zhou Shuang's tone.
Zhou Zhong was deflated, he didn't want to say anything about Zhou Hui again, lest he be taught a lesson by his short-term Lao Tzu, "See how long you can be proud," helped Zhou Shuang up, and walked on the stage again.
"In the next battle, Zhou fiercely fought Zhou Hui. β
Zhou Meng walked to the field, stood in the middle of the field and closed his eyes and waited for Zhou Hui.
"Hey, why didn't Meng admit defeat this week, he wouldn't be looking for a fight. β
"Yes, I've been beaten many times in general, but this time I don't have a long memory, I can't be beaten stupid!"
Zhou Meng heard the discussion of the people below in the field, his face turned blue and white for a while, and he opened his eyes and said to this Zhou Hui: "Zhou Hui enter the field." β
Zhou Hui was also stunned, how did Zhou Meng, who usually bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, become so backbone today, walked into the martial arts training ground suspiciously, raised his eyes and said contemptuously to Zhou Meng: "You don't admit defeat?"
Zhou was furious and said fiercely: "Admit defeat? β
Zhou Hui felt strange when he heard Zhou Hu's words just now in his mouth, but he still raised his hand and raised his head to Zhou Meng and said with a faint question: "Okay, then I'll let you make a move first, lest others say that I bullied you?"
Zhou Meng's head suddenly exploded, "Damn, tease me with Zhou Shuang's words just now, and I'm older than you, and I also said that others said that you bullied me, Zhou Hui, you deceive people too much, don't blame me for the time" Thinking about it, a sinister smile flashed from the corner of his mouth.
The "Wind Breaking Blade" double-palmed knife slashed towards Zhou Hui, and suddenly the four wind blades roared from all directions with the sound of air friction. , The Wind Breaking Blade is the same as the Flame Fist, which is a yellow-level mid-grade martial pole, and when it is cultivated to the extreme, it can swing nine wind blades with both palms, and with Zhou Meng's current strength, it can only send out four winds.
Zhou Hui sneered, shouted violently, and his fists slashed out, and a raging flame rushed out from his fists towards the four wind blades that attacked.
"Big brother, this Hui'er is already at the sixth level of Qi training, why didn't you tell me, it's too boring, but this kid is really demonic." Zhou Lan looked at Zhou Hui incredulously and said.
"I don't know, not long ago he was still practicing the fifth layer of qi, and I don't know how he is practicing the sixth layer of qi now, and I don't know when he broke through. Zhou Ming smiled bitterly, "This bastard boy even lied to his own son, and he must clean up when he goes home this time."
In the field, Zhou Meng saw that the wind blade he sent out disappeared in the fire that Zhou Hui swung, and he felt that Zhou Hui's Yuan Force was obviously much thicker than his own, "Could it be that he broke through and practiced the sixth layer of qi?"
Zhou Hui saw Zhou Meng coming closely, and thought to himself, "This guy is crazy, the wind attribute is originally to win with speed and distance, and your speed is not as good as me, I dare to come close." You must have no hope for this, are you being beaten?" shook his head helplessly, if someone else gave you a beating, it really can't be said if you don't beat it. Zhou Hui put away the flames of his fist and punched Zhou Meng who flew over.
"Bang"
A punch smashed firmly into Zhou Meng's chest, although there was no flame, but the strength was still enough, Zhou Meng was punched until he flew out, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and slowly fell motionless on the sidelines.
Zhou Hui was stunned, except for Zhou Zhong, who was stunned.
This week, Meng Zhen couldn't help but punch and was killed by Zhou Hui. β
"Yes, who told him to be self-defeating, and he didn't admit defeat, now it's okay, his life is in it. β
Zhou Hui was also stunned and thought, Zhou Meng hadn't been so reluctant to fight before, could it be that he didn't control his strength after breaking through, and there was really a big problem. Immediately, he also walked towards Zhou Meng, who fell to the ground.
Zhou Meng secretly saw Zhou Hui coming over, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, Zhou Hui, you also have today, you were deceived by me, I will see how you die. Thinking about it another day in my throat and spurting out another mouthful of blood. Zhou Hui saw Zhou Meng vomiting blood again, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug Zhou Meng and wanted to help him up, Zhou Meng had a hint of a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, and his right hand shook, and a dagger fell from the cuff to his hand, and he stabbed Zhou Hui's dantian without hesitation.
Zhou Ming and Zhou Lan on the sidelines also looked at this scene, but it was obviously too late to save Zhou Hui. I was anxious: "Brute, you dare?"
Zhou Zhong saw this scene and just stood aside with a playful and sadistic attitude, "Even if you Zhou Hui don't die this time, this time it will definitely make your meridian qi disperse and cultivation greatly reduced, how can you participate in the big competition at that time, genius, hmph, from now on you are just the waste material of the Zhou family, Zhou Ming, the position of the head of your family is not going to fall into my hands obediently." β
"Ding"
The dagger in Zhou Meng's hand did not pierce into Zhou Hui's body, as if it was blocked by something. Zhou Hui came back to his senses and chopped off the dagger in Zhou Meng's hand, dodged to the side, frightened, and touched his arms, it turned out to be a gossip plate, and he really saved his life, Zhou Meng looked at the strange gossip plate in Zhou Hui's hand and felt heartache, "Alas, is there really no way?"
Zhou Ming also flew over and stood beside Zhou Hui, looking at Zhou Meng coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Zhou Langtian sighed, and dropped a sentence: "Abolish the cultivation!" and left without looking back. As soon as the words fell, Zhou Ming slapped his palm on Zhou Meng's dantian, Zhou Meng snorted violently, and the yuan force in his body quickly dispersed like a ball with a hole.
Zhou Zhong also collapsed to the ground, I didn't expect that the things that were clearly planned would become like this, if that blow was successful, Zhou Hui would become a waste if he didn't die, and when the time came, the best cultivation among the juniors would be his own Zhou Meng, and the old man would not be so ruthless when the matter came to this point. Ah, how did it become like this, my most proud son has become a waste, Zhou Ming, Zhou Hui, all this is thanks to you, I will definitely not let you go, I will definitely not.
Zhou Ming looked at Zhou Zhong, who was slumped in the distance, and said without any emotion: "I don't want to have a next time, if there is, I don't mind killing you, even the old man won't be able to save you at that time." He didn't care about the selection under the age of twenty, explained to Zhou Lan, and turned around and left with Zhou Hui.
Looking at Zhou Ming's father and son in the distance, Zhou Zhong was full of murderous aura and whispered: "I will definitely avenge this revenge." β
In the evening, a large family gathered around to eat, Zhou Meng did not come, because of the day's events, the whole process was a little dull, and everyone left after eating in a hurry. In order to make Zhou Hui feel more relaxed, Zhou Lan also dragged Zhou Hui to his yard as soon as he finished eating, after all, Zhou Hui was almost killed by this catastrophe during the day, how could it be that it was an impact.
Zhou Lan pulled Zhou Hui to his room, and couldn't wait to hand over a quaint wooden box to Zhou Hui.
Zhou Hui knew that this was the good thing that the fourth uncle said he brought to himself during the day, but what was in this wooden box nearby. With anticipation, Zhou Hui opened the wooden box.
A stone, a stone that is extremely black and has a little shiny?
"Fourth Uncle, what kind of good thing is this, what is this thing for?" Zhou Hui asked confused
"This treasure, this treasure was bought from the antiquities market, when I saw that this stone was a little strange, I thought that you don't like to study weird things, so I bought it back for you, you study it, say no
Big baby, how about uncle's good eye. β
"Eh, it turns out that the fourth uncle doesn't know what this thing is from, why use it, then I'll thank the fourth uncle" said and glanced at Zhou Lan, it's a good thing, it's a treasure, isn't it just a black stone, but I still thank the fourth uncle for thinking about himself outside. "Fourth uncle, you just came back today, you must be quite tired, you should rest early. Without waiting for Zhou Lan to answer, he ran away.
When he returned to his hut, he took out the stone again, and felt that the stone was very hard, and the appearance was very smooth, but it was a little darker, and there was nothing else worth studying. At most, it's an ornamental object. I don't care about it anymore when I put it at the head of the bed.
