Chapter 416: The Sixth Martial Arts Exam
Yesterday in the Tiancao Palace, Xu Zhenren transformed into a spirit stone Tianyu Flower Essence Heavenly Maiden, tested the sages, and was called the fifth martial arts test by the Jade Emperor. Today's martial arts examination held in Wukao Square will be regarded as the fifth martial arts examination.
The Jade Emperor did not arrive, and on both sides of the observation deck, gathered the civil and military ministers of the Heavenly Palace. Under the observation platform, it was Emperor Gou Chen and other examiners, and Mr. Peng Da led the shortlisted candidates to arrive early. Around the square, there are scattered ordinary immortals, heavenly officials, and unsuccessful candidates.
Emperor Gou Chen began to count the shortlisted candidates, a total of two hundred and seventy-one, "Candidates, this sixth martial arts examination is still the selection of seventy-two shortlisted martial artists. During the competition, each candidate competed with four Tianding martial arts, and those who did not lose within ten moves were shortlisted. However, it is not allowed to change, and it is not allowed to use Dao techniques and Dao methods such as fixation. Well, each examiner will receive twenty-seven candidates to go down to the examination room. β
Ten examiners stepped forward and listened to Emperor Chen's reading list, the first nine groups were twenty-seven in each group, and the tenth group was twenty-eight, and the examiners led them, and followed Tianding and scribes into the examination room.
Piao Ranzi is in Dou Rong's group, and there are also wise men such as Zhao Chang, Jiuyangzi, and He Jiawei in this clan.
Dou Rong briefly said a few words about the martial arts examination regulations, took out the list, and read the first candidate to appear: "He Jiawei went down to the examination room and played against the four Tianding." β
"To" He Jiawei replied in a loud voice, walked out of the crowd, and saluted Dou Rongshi: "He Jiawei meets the examiner." β
"Oh. He Jiawei, you are so thin, can you fight against the four Tianding?" Dou Rong, the martial arts star official, looked at He Jiawei and saw that he was thin and withered, and his body was thin, and asked.
"No problem. He Jiawei blinked his eyes, "Isn't it just a test of martial arts? It's not fatter than skinny, it's more bodybuilding." β
"Then don't you regret it?" Dou Rong waved his hand and walked out of the four Tianding, all of whom had big shoulders and round waists, holding knives, guns, forks and sticks and four weapons, staring at this thin man with horizontal eyebrows.
"Bring the paint bucket. Dou Rong commanded, and Tianding brought a bucket of paint and placed it in front of the four Tianding.
"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the chief examiner's instructions: swords and guns have no eyes, so the weapons are all wooden, the single knife is a wooden blade, the spear is a wooden spear, a log, there is no spear tip, and the rest of the weapons are the same. However, there was still a need to distinguish the winner from the loser, so he had to paint the blade of the weapon with red paint. If a candidate has one paint on his body or two paint marks on his limbs, he or she will be defeated. β
After Dou Rong finished speaking, the four Tianding took weapons, smeared red paint on the blade, spear head, steel fork head, and Qi Mei stick at one end, and shook it again.
The four of them besieged one person, and Piao Ranzi sweated for He Jiawei. He Jiawei didn't care, took out a single knife from his back, and said with a smile: "The four of you make a move, let's play." β
"He Xianshi, how can you allow child's play in the martial arts competition?" Dou Rong said: "You all go to the circle to compete. The four Tianding walked into the circle sprinkled with white ash and stood still in four directions. He Jiawei carried a single knife and came among the four people, looking at the front and back, left and right.
"He Jiawei has paid attention, the competition has begun" Dou Rong shouted, and then looked at the circle, the four Tianding raised their weapons and attacked He Jiawei.
He Jiawei was surrounded by a single knife, and he was able to maneuver with four Tianding. The candidates on the side were shocked to watch.
I saw four Tianding, weapons raised: the big spear stabbed at He Jiawei in the back of the heart, the ancient tree with the eyebrow stick was entrenched, swept towards He Jiawei's legs, the single knife stabbed him in the front heart, and the steel fork came towards the top of his head. He Jiawei is worthy of being a good man, with a single knife in his hand facing the Tianding in front of him, a move of the wild horse mane, seeing him knock open with a single knife;
The first trick of good danger, if you are not experienced in a hundred battles, or have a quick reaction, you will definitely not be able to dodge. Piao Ranzi watched the four Tianding besiege He Jiawei, and secretly thought about countermeasures, although he had been called the true legend of the real person, he had no experience in fighting against the four people.
Looking at the circle again, the He family dodged left and right, and it was more than enough to protect themselves; Although the four Tianding are powerful and tall, their martial arts are average and their skills are clumsy. Ten moves passed in a blink of an eye, Dou Rong shouted to stop, and the four of them withdrew from the circle.
He Jiawei pulled a knife flower, looked at the clothes on his body, did not stain red paint, and walked out of the circle.
Dou Rong ordered the scribe to record: "The He family is undefeated in ten moves and is shortlisted as a candidate for Jinshi." He called for the next candidate to come out.
Piao Ranzi watched the competition, while pondering in his heart: outwitting the strong, capturing the weak, being flexible against the enemy, and when it is their turn to compete, they can't take it lightly, yes, they have great strength, and they can take their weapons. Okay, that's the idea.
Piao Ranzi came up with this good idea, secretly happy, and looked at the group of celestial dings.
The second Magi also took the exam, Dou Rong called the third candidate, and the examiner said, "Lord Examiner, I have something to say." β
"Please. β
"I know that my martial arts are not good, and I will be very wolf when I compete with two Tianding, and I can't beat four Tianding, so I give up the competition and ask the examiner for permission. The candidate said.
"Huh?" Dou Rong didn't expect this candidate to flinch from the battlefield, and asked, "So, are you automatically giving up?" β
"I know. The examinee said, "I still know how many taels of dry rice I eat." If you are not proficient in learning and art, you will automatically abandon the exam, please ask the examiner for permission. β
"Okay, I'll give you permission to drop the test. Dou Rong ordered the scribe to come over, handed the candidate a pen and paper, asked him to write the certificate, sign and draw the pledge, and put on the hand model, so that he could hand it over.
According to what Dou Rong said, the examinee wrote it and handed it to the scribe, and returned it to the examinee, looking relaxed.
"Why don't you give it a try?" asked Jiuyangzi, who knew him well.
"What level do you have, do you have two hits, I don't know?" The candidate said: "When I entered the examination room, I was defeated, so it is better not to get out of the examination room." "It seems that this candidate is very self-aware and has not yet had the courage to face the difficulties.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although you are playing against the four Tianding, you don't have to worry about your lives. Moreover, these thousands of years of opportunities, after giving up, I don't know what year and month I will have to wait until the day exam, please cherish it. Dou Rong said.
The candidates said, "Thank you for the examiner's care." β
Dou Rong shouted again, and one of the candidates walked up to Dou Rong with a hesitant expression.
"You, the candidate, don't you want to give up the exam?" asked Dou Rong.
"γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» examiner, I don't give up the exam. The examinee said. "Even if you lose big, give it a try. β
"Good, good, courage. Dou Rong let him go. As a result, in less than five rounds, he was stabbed by four Tianding weapons, and his body was stained with three places of red paint.
"The competition is stopped," Dou Rong shouted. The four Tianding each collected their weapons and withdrew from the circle. Dou Rong comforted the examinee a few words, but if the martial arts exam was to win with real skills, it would be in vain to rely on courage alone, so the examinee retreated gloomily.
Of the twenty-seven candidates, twenty of them passed the exam in a blink of an eye, and about half of them failed. Twenty-one, it's Piaoranzi's turn.
"Chu Piaoran," Dou Rong recognized this candidate, he was a scholar of the literary examination, he had seen it in the Golden Palace, and all the martial arts examinations were out of the limelight. However, Dou Rong has a good impression of him. Seeing Chu Piaoran standing in front of him, he said, "Against the four Tianding, you have to be careful, what weapons do you bring?"
"Back to the examiner, I didn't bring a weapon, so I competed with my bare hands. Piao Ranzi replied.
"How can this work?" Dou Rong frowned when he saw it, "The four Tianding are like wolves and tigers, and they all use weapons, not to compare fists and feet with you, you better find a weapon to take advantage of." β
"Chu Piaoran, use my long sword," Zhao Chang shouted behind him.
"Thanks, no need. Piao Ranzi turned back and thanked him.
"Use my handguard hook," Jiuyoko shouted.
"I won't even use your weapon. Piao Ranzi smiled. "I'll just use two hands. β
"No" Dou Rong was very unhappy, this Chu Piaoran really doesn't know what to do, you can use weapons, you can still parry, as long as you can barely make up ten moves, you can be shortlisted.
"Examiner, you didn't say you had to use weapons before the exam. Piaoranzi said.
"I didn't make it clear. Dou Rong said: "But you are empty-handed, how can you parry? Could it be that you have practiced the Iron Arm Mantis Gong?"
"I've never practiced this kung fu. β
"Anyway, let's go find a weapon. Dou Rong pointed to the weapon shelf in the distance.
"Thank you, examiner, I really don't need it. Piaoranzi said.
"You candidate, you are really stubborn" Dou Rong became angry.
"What's going on?" the Multi-Eyed Ghost King led Feng Yingzi and Jia Rudao over. The three invigilators were all on their own in the first few sessions, and the same is true today. Seeing that many members of the Jingzhong Association were defeated, the three of them got together, shook their heads and sighed, inspected around, turned to this side, and saw Dou Rong and Piao Ranzi standing face to face, as if they were arguing, and walked over to ask the reason.
"Three proctors. Dou Rong said hello out of courtesy: "It's nothing, I'll ask the candidate a few words." β
"Chu Piaoran, heheγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" The multi-eyed ghost king came to the two of them and sneered twice: "It's time for you to compete." β
"Yes, it's my turn. β
"Okay, good, hehe, I hope you will succeed immediately, win four Tianding in a row, and win glory for our wise men. "What the multi-eyed ghost king said against his will, even Dou Rong could hear it.
"I don't have to go out of the horse, I can do it with two feet. Piao Ranzi looked at him coldly.
"Yes, yes, Chu Piaoran is very heroic, when he was in the underworld, he tried to compete with the old man. It's a pity that the old man is a scribe, and he was beaten by you. You were so heroic, very heroic. The multi-eyed ghost king never forgot the beating that time, as long as he touched the little head on the top of his head, he hated Chu Piaoran so much that his teeth itched.
"That's not a competition with you, it's your lies to confuse the public, and you should be beaten. Piao Ranzi said coldly.
"Chu Piaoran, you quickly find a weapon and end up in the competition. Dou Rong listened to them tell about their grievances back then, and hurriedly let Chu Piaoran go down to avoid disputes.
"Slow" The multi-eyed ghost king looked at Chu Piaoran's empty hands and asked, "Chu Piaoran, don't you use the hole flute, why don't you use it today?"
"Hehe, to deal with the four Tianding, my hands are enough. "Piao Ranzi means that to deal with the four Tianding, just two hands, and use a knife to kill chickens.
"Oh, it seems that the old man is stronger than the four Tianding. The multi-eyed ghost king nodded, saw He Jiawei, and asked, "He Jiawei, have you passed the test?"
"President Qiqi, I have passed the test. "He Jiawei said.
"Okay, you lend the single knife to Chu Piaoran for use, so that he will be defeated and complain. The Ghost King laughed.
"No," Piaoran said resolutely. "If you are defeated, you will never complain that you have not used your weapons. β
"Okay, there is ambition and ambition" The multi-eyed ghost king said: "Sure enough, heroes have been young since ancient times." "The multi-eyed ghost king is waiting for the words of Piaoranzi. "Examiner, candidates, you have all heard clearly: Chu Piaoran does not use weapons to compete, if he is really defeated, there is no need to complain. β
"Hear me clearly," the examinees said.
As soon as Dou Rong heard Qin Hui say this, he secretly shouted that it was bad, it was bad, this Chu Piaoran was fooled, and he said a big thing, if he took another weapon now, it would be impossible.
"Examiner Dou, please let Chu Piaoran go. The Much-Eyed Ghost King sneered.
"This γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Dou Rong looked at Chu Piaoran, and the meaning in his eyes: This time it's all up to you, I can't help. "Chu Piaoran, you will compete"
"Honorable Order" floated his head and walked into the circle. Dou Rong waved his hand, walked out of the four Tianding, each holding a weapon, came to the barrel, covered the weapon with red paint, and also walked into the circle.
Each candidate plays against four Tianding, all of them are in a group of four, and the three main examiners are set, and the examiner does not know, in order to show fairness. Dou Rong couldn't help but be secretly happy when he saw the four Tianding come out: the four Tianding, one with a double hammer, one with a long sword, one with a short knife, and one with a thirty-section long whip;
Piao Ranzi saw the four Tianding come out, and began to feel nothing. Seeing that they were stained with red paint and walking towards themselves, they chuckled in their hearts, secretly screamed badly, and their hearts were in a hurry, and they almost broke out in a cold sweat...... V
