Chapter 44, Happiness and Revenge
A day later, Hulongshan Taoist College, Martial Arts Square.
The four-year class of students is about to graduate, and a martial arts performance is being held for new graduates. The performers are recommended by the Taoist masters.
For fresh graduates with outstanding performances, there is a high probability that they will be recognized by the National Taoist Association and given the title of "Outstanding Graduate".
On the performance stage, the Taoist leaders sat solemnly. Under the stage, the students who were pressed by the black pressure were arguing.
The abbot of Taoist Zhengtian Dao delivered a speech via remote video, encouraging the students to serve the country after graduation and carry forward Taoist culture and Taoist martial arts. Then, the chief Taoist of the Taoist Academy announced: The exhibition match has officially begun.
The women's team and men's team performances were followed by the men's doubles and women's doubles performances, followed by the performances of the various martial arts categories and the use of various weapons.
Then, the performance enters the climax, and the most proud disciples selected by each Taoist leader will face off against two or three students of the same class on the spot, which belongs to a one-to-many performance.
The one-to-many scene performance is indeed wonderful. The students in the audience did not hesitate to applaud loudly and warmly, and the scene was very lively.
Finally, the climax of the performance came, with Gou Qiuhong, a recognized recent graduate of the Taoist Academy, appearing, and he was going to play against six graduates of the same class.
One person against six people, very few graduates in the past were able to do it. Because the students who participate in the performance are all selected, everyone wants to perform positively, and if the performance is too poor, it may affect their employment.
The performance started immediately, Gou Qiuhong stood on the stage with great ambition, he was holding a long sword, he looked handsome and cool, and some junior students were immediately fascinated by him.
The six graduates of the same year stood in six directions, surrounded Gou Qiuhong, and put on a battle posture integrating offense and defense.
As the whistle sounded to preside over the Daoist, six graduates of the same year launched an attack on Gou Qiuhong at the same time. They want to use the advantage of numbers to make Gou Qiuhong show flaws in defense.
"Bang dang dang ......" The two sides fought fiercely.
Gou Qiuhong's swordsmanship is very fast, and his defense is impenetrable. When the opponent besieged, he swept with his sword to block six people at once. When the opponent retreats, he will choose to attack from a single point and drive straight in.
The six people on the other side saw his intentions and immediately changed the common advance and retreat to three advances and three retreats. It is a group of three people, and when one group retreats, the other group will attack, forcing Gou Qiuhong not to dare to carry out a single point attack.
However, Gou Qiuhong soon found a way to fight: each time, he only attacked the weakest graduate of the same year, and only defended in other directions.
After a long time, the weakest graduate of the same class showed his flaws. Gou Qiuhong grabbed the flaw and quickly knocked the man down. Then, following the same strategy, he knocked out the opponent's second person as well.
He then knocked out the third, fourth, and fifth people in turn. The sixth person on the other side had to admit defeat.
"Good, good, good" The audience was full of cheers and applause.
At this moment, a mocking voice sounded, and a man with a hat flew onto the stage.
After the presiding Taoist found out about the situation, he immediately stood up, and he scolded loudly: "Presumptuous, who are you? How did you get in? ”
"You go to the side, there's nothing to do here" The person who came didn't want to deal with the presiding chief, he took off his hat and threw it backstage. Yes, the person who came was the one who had just returned to the Taoist Academy after escaping death.
"Li Xiaoyu, it's Li Xiaoyu" The crowd in the audience recognized Houtu and cheered loudly.
Gou Qiuhong, who was still full of smugness in receiving everyone's cheers just now, suddenly froze, he couldn't believe his eyes.
"What? Didn't you know me so soon? Houtu looked at Gou Qiuhong with disdain.
"You, are you a human or a ghost? You're not dead? Gou Qiuhong looked at Houtu in disbelief, involuntarily took a few steps back, and then asked tremblingly.
"Are you, hopefully, that I die?" Houtu approached Gou Qiuhong step by step.
"Li Xiaoyu, this is an exhibition match, what do you want to do?" The presiding Taoist felt that the situation was not right, and loudly scolded Houtu.
"I'm going to singled out Gou Qiuhong, is there any opposition?"
Houtu looked at the audience and asked loudly.
"No, no....." someone in the audience began to heckle.
"Okay, since you don't know the height of the sky, then I'll let you try my strength" Gou Qiuhong pretended to be calm, but his face showed hideousness.
Seeing this, the presiding Taoist looked at the chief Taoist in a hurry, and saw that he had no intention of stopping it, so he stopped doing anything to stop it.
The game started immediately, Gou Qiuhong held the sword in his right hand, his sword aura was like a rainbow, fast as lightning, and in an instant, Houtu was completely enveloped in his sword light.
......A sword fell to the ground, and the game came to an abrupt end.
There was a man standing stiffly on the stage, not daring to move, for he had a golden sword around his neck.
The audience was suddenly silent. The Taoist leaders on the stage were even more stunned, and everyone looked at this scene in disbelief.
It is incredible that the outstanding graduates of the most powerful Taoist Academy in this class were defeated by Houtu with one move!
"Are you still? Come on, show the momentum you just had? Do you think that is all blown out? Houtu glared at Gou Qiuhong angrily.
Gou Qiuhong felt a chill in his neck, and he didn't dare to say a word.
Houtu continued to angrily say: "Now you know that you are afraid of death? Well, I'll give you a chance, and you must now tell me who is behind you—yes, who? ”
Gou Qiuhong was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and his body was constantly trembling.
"I'll count to three, and that's what happens if I don't say it" Hou Tu shook the sword in his hand with his right hand, and made a movement to wipe his neck with his left hand.
"One" after the soil began to shout count.
"Li Xiaoyu, what are you going to do?" The presiding Taoist elder shouted.
"Get out—" and he didn't look back.
The presiding Taoist was furious, drew a sword and stabbed at the back earth.
"Boom ......" Hou Tu slapped out with a palm, and the presiding Taoist took a few steps back.
"Li Xiaoyu, you want to rebel?" The chief Daoist also flew over.
"Two" after the soil continued to shout count.
"Huh......" The chief Dao Master slashed towards Houtu with his sword, wanting to knock out the golden sword in Houtu's hand.
Hou Tu was furious, slapped Gou Qiuhong to the ground with one palm, and then jumped up a few meters, avoiding the sword of the chief Dao leader.
The presiding Taoist who had suffered a loss suddenly felt very gloomy on his face, and stabbed at the back soil again.
Hou Tu used the tip of his sword a little and slashed it in the reverse direction of the coming sword, and the presiding Dao chief had to roll into the ground to avoid Hou Tu's attack.
At this moment, the chief Taoist also stabbed with a sword. Hou Tu raised his sword and made an oblique slash, and the chief Taoist had to withdraw his sword to block.
At the same time, Gou Qiuhong, who got up from the ground, picked up his long sword on the ground and frantically attacked the back soil. His face was full of hideousness, and he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of three to one to teach Houtu a hard lesson.
"......" The crowd who was in a daze suddenly stirred. The three of them fought Houtu and one person, including the chief Taoist and the presiding Taoist chief. This, do you still want to face?
"Looking for death, then I will fulfill you" Hou Tu was furious, and he used his golden sword to fiercely sweep away the attack of the chief Taoist and the presiding Taoist chief, and killed Gou Qiuhong at full speed. The presiding Taoist was caught off guard and was swept to the ground.
Then, I saw Hou Tu slap out with a palm, and swept Gou Qiuhong two feet away, and then he flew and put the golden sword on his neck.
"If anyone comes, I'll kill him," Houtu yelled.
"I said, I said, they are from Wushen Mountain, and I don't know about other things" Gou Qiuhong was already frightened.
"Xiaoyu, stop" Daoist Gu and Deng Gang rushed over.
