Chapter Twenty-Four: Gathering Qi into a Blade
Lu Yu learned from his father that Jinyuanfang City was originally the Lu family's industry, and it was also the largest Fang City in Lujia Town, due to the decline of the Lu family, and was often squeezed by other families, and finally the Lu family had to give up Jinyuanfang City, and decided to hold a clan competition every three years, and the martial artists under the age of 20 of each family competed in three people, and the champion could take over the management rights of Jinyuanfang City for three years.
Lu Yu secretly made up his mind that he must win the championship, for the sake of his family, but also for his parents.
"Lingling, you will try your best to help you get the Nine Spirit Pills of the Spirit Cave, so that you can advance to the Qi Gathering Layer as soon as possible. Lu Yu smiled slightly and said softly.
"Really, third brother, great!" Lu Lingling said happily.
......
Three days later, in the early morning, the sky was silent, the night was about to disappear, the dawn of the morning slowly woke up the sleeping creatures, the sun had just emerged from behind the top of the firmament, and the warmth of its first rays of light communicated with the coolness of the dying night, making people feel a sweet warmth.
The courtyard door was gently pushed open, Lu Yu slowly walked into the courtyard, spread his hands, and let the warm sunlight pour around him, he closed his eyes slightly, listening to the lively sound from afar, and then, he took a deep breath, and when his eyes opened again, in the pupils, a strong battle intent emerged.
Clanbi is finally here!
When Lu Yu came to the largest martial arts competition in Lujia Town, the gate of the huge bluestone square was already overcrowded, most of these people were some martial arts disciples in Lujia Town, because this was a competition between the best disciples of the younger generation of the five major families, and there were a total of fifteen contestants, all of whom came to compete for the championship.
Only in the center of the bluestone square, the competition platform is relatively empty, the square is surrounded by layers of steps, the highest position of the steps is more than a zhang higher than the central square, now it has long been overcrowded, there are some private rooms at the front of the square, these private rooms are specially designed for the heads of the five major families.
The most lively place is the gambling house, that is, the place where people bet on treasure, you can press a player to win in any round of the game, you can get the bet of the opposite side if you win, and finally distribute it proportionally, the gambling house only charges part of the commission, of course, the gambling house itself can also participate in betting, the more people pressed, the more the gambling house earns, of course, Lu Yu will not let go of this opportunity, all the yuan stones on the body are all pressed, if you win, you can make a small profit.
"Third brother, you must work hard, my Yuan Shi is all on you, there are more than 20 yuan, if you lose, you have to accompany me. Lu Lingling flashed her eyes and said coquettishly.
"Don't worry, Lingling, I'll do my best. Lu Yu smiled.
On the steps of the central square, there were at least a few thousand people watching the match, and they would naturally talk about the scramble, as many of them had bet on the competition, and although the game had not yet begun, they were already predicting which players would advance.
Among the fifteen people who participated in the competition, the most optimistic were naturally Lei Ba, Lei Hong, Lu Lin and Lu Yu and a few others, the reason why Lu Yu was favored by everyone was his battle with Jia Yuhu in Leijiafang City, and this Lu Yu opened the meridians in the shortest time, but he was able to hurt Jia Yuhu, which is really amazing.
There are five referees in front of the square, and each of the five major families has an elder as a judge, because the Lei family won the championship last time, this competition was also hosted by the Lei family, and the presiding officer of the competition was an elder of the Lei family, who was about fifty or sixty years old, with a thin body and face, and a gray hair on his head was faintly visible, but his eyes were shining and bright.
He didn't seem to speak very hard, but his voice shook the entire square and fell silent in an instant, this person was Lei Xiaoren, the third elder of the Lei family.
I saw Lei Xiaoren standing in front of the martial arts platform in the square, his hands raised slightly, his eyes flashing and scanning the audience, and then briefly explained why this game was held, and then announced some rules and taboos of the game.
In the end, Lei Xiaoren glanced at the audience and said in a deep voice: "Now, the game has officially begun, please enter the arena." ”
"It's finally started, it's really exciting!"
"I don't know, who will win the championship!"
"I see, it must be the Lei family again!"
"Not necessarily, I heard that the Lu family also has a genius!"
Around the square, there was an uproar, and everyone was talking.
Lu Yu saw a lot of acquaintances among these players, and there was Xue Wenxuan among the acquaintances, Lu Yu smiled at Xue Wenxuan, but Xue Wenxuan responded to him with a cold and disdainful look, Lu Yu suddenly understood that he had returned to his original appearance, Xue Wenxuan couldn't recognize him at all, but to Lu Yu's surprise, Xue Wenxuan's strength had actually cultivated to the second level of Qi Gathering, but this was too fast!
The cold gaze swept over Lu Yu's body fiercely, Jia Yuhu's face was hideous, Lu Yu plotted against him more than a year ago, and this matter was passed down as a laughing stock in Lujia Town, which made him unforgettable.
Jia Yuhu has long hated Lu Yu to the extreme, eager to eat him alive, he is already narrow-minded, and has been arrogant and habitual by Jia Changjiang, after more than a year of cultivation, Jia Yuhu's strength has greatly improved, self-confidence has skyrocketed, thinking that with his strength will definitely be able to defeat Lu Yu, if there is a chance to face Lu Yu, he must humiliate him in public.
"Wait where you are, then start drawing lots to select your opponents, and those who don't choose will go straight to the next round. Lei Xiaoren's voice was flat, followed by a beautiful maidservant, holding a handful of bamboo slips in her hand, and then let fifteen people draw lots in turn.
Lu Yu looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and found that the selected opponent turned out to be Jia Yuhu, and then smiled bitterly: It's not that enemies don't get together, and they really responded to that sentence.
Shangguan Yu'er of the Shangguan family drew a blank draw and went directly to the next round of the game.
After selecting the opponent one after another, the duel officially began, the first Lei Yun against Jia Yujiao, there was no suspense, the strength of the Lei family is obvious to all, the last champion was the Lei family, so the other families are unwilling to fight with the Lei family, if you are lucky enough to meet the opponent who is weak, it is possible to directly advance to the second or even the third round, although they have little hope for the championship, but no one wants to be eliminated in the first round.
There are four rounds in total, and there is no power ranking, even if you were ranked second before, if you are unlucky enough to meet the first place, you will also be eliminated in the first round.
Jia Yujiao saw that the opponent was Lei Yun, his brows were immediately furrowed, and his face was also ugly, he had cultivated to the second level of Qi Gathering, and he was beaten to the ground before he had survived three rounds under Lei Yun, and the people of the Lei family suddenly cheered, and the people of the Jia family were all gloomy, Lu Yu's face was also very solemn, for some reason, Lu Yu vaguely felt a trace of danger from Lei Yun.
In the second game of Xue Wenxuan against Shangguan Ying, Shangguan Ying's strength was in the third layer of qi gathering, with the start of a game, Shangguan Ying brandished a big knife and slashed towards Xue Wenxuan, the big knife was calm and heavy, and where it passed, it was as unstoppable as a flood beast, but Xue Wenxuan dodged Shangguan Ying's big knife with her flexible body technique, her long sword flickered up and down, left and right, fluctuating, and her body was extremely fast, as if she had also practiced a certain kind of footwork.
Lu Yu saw that Xue Wenxuan's body was flexible, but after all, he only had the second layer of Qi Gathering, although he had dodged Shangguan Ying's big knife, he had also encountered dangerous moves one after another, and there were already five or six red knife marks on his body, and the people of the Xue family were also staring at the competition platform tightly, with extremely solemn expressions.
With the passage of time, the fight between Xue Wenxuan and Shangguan Ying has been more than sixty rounds, and gradually Xue Wenxuan's body skills are getting faster and faster, and his swordsmanship is becoming more and more powerful, forcing Shangguan Ying to retreat again and again, and when the fight reaches eighty rounds, a sword stabbed Shangguan Ying's right wrist, and the big knife fell to the ground with a bang.
"Xue Family, Xue Wenxuan, win!"
With an announcement, a burst of cheers erupted in the crowd, and the people of the Shangguan family all had gloomy faces, shook their heads and sighed, and were silent, Lu Yu was also very surprised by Xue Wenxuan's victory, he didn't expect that the weak little girl before would have such a good talent, although the inheritance accounted for a part.
"In the next game, Lei Hong will fight Lu Lin!"
An announcement was made, and all kinds of chattering voices were heard in the crowd again.
"I heard that Lu Lin has been promoted to the sixth layer of Qi Gathering, and he is the person who is most likely to compete with the Lei family. ”
"Although the Lu family has declined, Lu Lin's strength is indeed obvious to all, and his cultivation talent is different from ordinary people. ”
"I heard that Lei Hong is also a sixth-layer Qi gatherer, and it is not certain who wins. ”
"If Lu Lin loses, the champion will fall to the Lei family again. ”
On the competition platform, Lu Lin and Lei Hong looked at each other, bursting out with sparks of fighting spirit.
"Among the major families, only you and I have a little admiration, and the others are small characters, and it will only be embarrassing to come here, but you will soon be in the company of them. Lei Hong's face was slightly gloomy and he said lightly.
"Your Lei family is too arrogant, then I will teach you a good lesson today, so that you know what is outside the sky. Lu Lin's pupils condensed slightly, and he responded coldly.
"Then let's try!" With that, Lei Hongfei stepped forward, and the thick Yuan Force burst out from his palm, and quickly condensed a three-foot-long sword blade in his hand, and then the blade directly split the air, and where it passed, a wave of air was formed in the air, and it slashed down towards Lu Lin's shoulder like lightning.
Seeing the sword blade coming, Lu Lin didn't dare to be careless, he took two steps back in a row, dodged the blow in a flash, and then kicked the ground with both feet, his body jumped up in the air, and the yuan force of both hands surged out at the same time, quickly condensed into a three-foot-long thick blade, from top to bottom, slashing down towards Lei Hong's shoulder.
Lei Hong struck a failed blow, and his palm jerked, and the blade of the sword slashed directly with the blade under his urging.
Boom!
The low muffled sound, like a boulder falling to the ground, shook everyone's eardrums a little painfully, and the two of them retreated dozens of steps back at the same time, and where they passed, dozens of cracks had been shaken out of the hard bluestone ground.
Looking at such a blatant duel between the two, everyone's faces couldn't help but have a look of shock, worthy of the five major families, and the strength of the younger generation is not ordinary.
Gathering Qi into a Blade is a martial art that can only be issued by gathering Qi more than four layers, and its power is far stronger than that of Gathering Qi into a seal, it seems that the kung fu of the two of them is not weak.
Lu Yu was also a little shocked by the amazing fight between the two, he didn't expect the power of this gathering qi into a blade to be so strong, if it wasn't for his own gauntlet, even if he had the protection of Yuan Force, he wouldn't dare to take that sword blade empty-handed.
"I didn't expect Lei Hong's Qi Gathering Blade to reach the point of perfection, it seems that he has cultivated to the peak of the sixth layer of Qi Gathering, and he will soon be able to advance to the seventh layer of Qi Gathering, the strength of the Lei family is really amazing!" said an old man on the referee's bench.
