Chapter 14: A Narrow Victory
The disciple whose question was answered was secretly speechless, "Isn't the key to the problem here, okay? If the basic martial arts have been refined to this level, is it still human?"
turned to say loudly to his friends: "It's not ordinary people who can tire themselves like this in martial arts!"
At this time, Qin Xiaoyan, who was out of breath because he was tired, heard all their conversation word for word, and was annoyed, "It's just the basic body method? ”
I couldn't help but sneer: "What kind of master should I be? It's just a basic body method, but I'm playing tricks here." There was a hint of contempt between the words.
Xiang Yang was not affected by it, and still said indifferently: "It's because you are too stupid and not good at learning." When the words fell, there was a burst of laughter from the audience.
The whip-wielding female disciple of the Xia Academy looked at Qin Xiaoyan on the field and said coldly: "Shame on you." ”
Qin Xiaoyan steadied his breathing, turned to the stage and said, "Give me another sword." A disciple of the Xia Yuan handed over his sword.
Taking over the long sword, Qin Xiaoyan had regained his previous calm and composure, no longer talking nonsense, and attacked with the sword in both hands.
Xiang Yang wanted to dodge like before, but he didn't want Qin Xiaoyan to stop halfway, and his left hand held the hilt of the sword upside down and stabbed it out to the left back. After a brief pause, his body leaning forward by inertia prompted him to take a few steps forward before stopping.
When Qin Xiaoyan turned around and saw the wound on Xiang Yang's left arm, which was more than an inch long, he sighed lightly. He didn't use any more flashy moves, and when he saw that this method could hurt Xiang Yang, he attacked again.
There is no way to retreat to the sun, and the rear is already on the edge of the ring, so you can only change directions to dodge.
Qin Xiaoyan's left foot is behind, his right foot is in front, his body leaning forward turns, and he becomes a backward posture, and his left hand stabs out, "poof", and is in the middle of the back shoulder of the sun. Due to the infusion of internal force, the wound is a bit deep, strangely only a small amount of blood is flowing out, and it is purple-black.
At this time, the disciples of the Martial Academy in the audience were stunned by this sudden turn of events, and they all looked at Xiang Yang in the ring nervously.
Elder Zhu in the stands shouted angrily: "You are so deceitful that you dare to poison people, hand over the antidote!"
As soon as the words fell, he stood up and swung his palm at Elder Qiu, who was also in the stands, and the flame above the brazier was tilted to one side by the palm wind, burning even more vigorously.
"Fart, these disciples under your sect can use poison?" Elder Qiu is not weak. With enough internal strength, he faced Elder Song with his palm, and the internal force leaked out, and the clothes of the two seemed to be blown by the wind, whirring.
The two of them pressed their palms against each other, fighting their internal strength, no one let anyone, their hands couldn't be free, but their mouths were not idle.
"Phew, as far as your disciple is concerned, it's not a good thing at first glance, and if you can't beat it, you'll have a black hand behind it. Elder Zhu scolded.
"What a bunch of nonsense! The disciples of my Xia Yuan are upright, sit upright, and disdain petty behavior. Besides, which eye saw that it was my Xia Academy disciple who couldn't compare to it? It was obvious that the girl was afraid and didn't dare to face the enemy head-on. Elder Qiu was also scolded for his anger, his face was red, and he blew his beard and glared.
"Hmph, if it weren't for that, why was the girl's blood purple-black? It was the kid's injury, not poisoning? The antidote was brought quickly, otherwise, Hugh blamed the old man for not being polite!" Elder Zhu snorted coldly, not listening to the other party's defense, seeing is believing.
Elder Qiu was completely enraged by Elder Zhu's nonsense, and he began to say nothing, "How do I know what kind of monster that girl is? The blood is purple-black, don't you know what is in your martial academy without knowing it?"
Then he snorted coldly: "You don't have to threaten, is the old man really afraid of you?"
When the words fell, the output of internal force increased, and Elder Zhu was not to be outdone, and the two of them fought together.
The dean of the Martial Academy disliked them for being too noisy, "Zhu Feng, calm down, that kid is fine." ”
Elder Zhu snorted coldly and withdrew his palms and sat back in his seat, while Elder Qiu also withdrew his hands and returned to his seat without any entanglement.
While the two elders were arguing, Xiang Yang added several more wounds to his body. Looking at the depth of Qin Xiaoyan's stabbing, the wound should not be shallow, but the blood did not flow out much, and even some wounds failed to soak through the clothes.
No one in the field paid attention to this, and the dean of the martial arts academy in the stands stared at Xiang Yang tightly, his eyes shining, as if he had discovered something unusual.
The reason why the wound is terrifying and the blood flow is low is that the cultivation of the Great Perfection of Practicing Blood in the Sun. Blood and blood vessels have undergone earth-shaking changes under the long-term cultivation and refining of essence.
The blood clots, flows quickly, and there is no blood oozing even if there is a slight rupture in the blood vessel wall. The walls of blood vessels have also become thicker and harder, and they will slide smoothly when a sword is pierced, and they are not easy to break. Even if there is a break, it will repair itself at the first time. Although it is slow, it reduces the amount of blood coming out.
There was a sudden cheer from the audience, the reason was that Xiang Yang successfully dodged Qin Xiaoyan's attack again, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, just like luck ran out, Xiang Yang didn't dodge another sword.
If you look closely, you will find that although Xiang Yang is stabbed every time, the wound seems to be controlled by Xiang Yang, either it is a very shallow wound, only a little purple, or it is just a tear on his clothes, which looks embarrassed, but the injury is not serious.
Seeing the sunset, the competition was inconclusive. Qin Xiaoyan's ineffective attack in front of him consumed too much internal force, and there was not much internal force left, so it was inevitable that he was a little impatient in his heart, if it was a draw, he also said that he had lost, just because many parties did not attack one move.
There was no internal force in his body to support, and Qin Xiaoyan's movements were slightly sluggish. Xiang Yang seized the opportunity and his figure flickered, and he quickly came to Qin Xiaoyan, slapped his palms on his hand holding the sword, and the two swords flew out one after another, submerged into the platform, and made a "buzzing" sound due to the rapid shaking.
Qin Xiaoyan didn't understand how the sword got out of his hand at the moment, Xiang Yang didn't give him time to react, quickly approached, and smashed his fist into his face. For the rest of the time, the jaws of the people in the audience never closed. Because Xiang Yang opened his bow left and right, hitting Qin Xiaoyan's face, at this moment, the person in front of him became a wooden stake made by Song Lao, and Xiang Yang gave full play to the basic martial arts of his chain. In the blink of an eye, Qin Xiaoyan's face widened, and he wanted to admit defeat several times, but Xiang Yang didn't give him a chance.
Qin Xiaoyan was humiliated by this, he was furious, and wanted to resist many times, but his internal strength was almost exhausted, and his physical strength was not as good as Xiangyang, so he was a little powerless, and the resistance was ineffective, and he made himself even more embarrassed, and secretly hated in his heart: his strength is greater than that of men, such a monster, who would want it.
The reason why Xiang Yang's physical strength is so strong is because of his cultivation method. Song Lao's cultivation plan is nothing peculiar, to put it bluntly, it is the limit that people say in daily life. Whether it is the physical training at the beginning of cultivation or the later basic martial arts practice, the requirement is to reach the limit of what you can bear, stimulate the body through medicinal baths, stimulate your potential, and achieve the desired effect of cultivation.
In this process, the body becomes stronger after breaking through the limits again and again. In the later stages, the body that has been nourished by the essence and qi has undergone amazing changes, and the strength of the body is unpredictable. In the end, Xiang Yang didn't know where the limit of his body was, so he couldn't practice by breaking through the limit anymore, which was also one of the reasons why his cultivation couldn't go further.
There are two more important reasons why Xiangyang has reached such a state. The first is the myelin cleansing pill, eliminating impurities in the body, improving one's own qualifications, and putting the body in the best state; the other is the blood berry fruit, which is the elixir used by the demon beast for advancement, and contains violent energy to transform Xiang Yang's body again, making Xiang Yang's body as powerful as a demon beast, which is simply incomparable to ordinary cultivators and martial cultivators.
Of course, these Xiangyang are not clear, even if they find that their physical strength is different from ordinary people, they only think that it is because of cultivation.
The unilateral attack on the stage continued, and seeing Qin Xiaoyan who was so embarrassed, the disciples of the Martial Academy in the audience tried their best to ridicule him. Among them, the most unscrupulous is Zhang Lin and them, "This calf is so strong, you see how happy he rolls." Zhang Lin clasped his hands on his shoulders and glanced at Wu Wei as he spoke.
Wu Wei tried his best to cooperate, "Little Niu, Senior Brother Zhang is wrong, people call him 'Little Eye'." As he spoke, he squinted his eyes and tried to make his eyes small.
Pan Ming faced the disciples of the Xia Academy, put his hands around his mouth to make a trumpet shape, and said loudly: "If you don't understand, shut up, Senior Brother Zhang is to let them roll the calf." ”
The disciples of the Martial Academy were amused by Zhang Lin's three people's tricks, no matter how big the contradictions were in the past, how much trouble they had made, when facing outsiders, they would unite and unite with each other. This is the essential difference between human beings and other living beings.
Although the Xia Yuan disciples did not show an overreaction, the anger in their hearts could be seen from their angry eyes and clenched hands.
Elder Zhu's demeanor at this time was diametrically opposed to just now, he held a bunch of grapes in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and threw a grape into his mouth from time to time, and the core he spit out fell into the brazier, making a crackling sound.
That relaxed and comfortable appearance was revealing his good mood at this time, and he didn't even want to give alms to Elder Qiu, as if the situation on the stage was very exciting, and he didn't want to miss it at all.
Elder Qiu's face was dark red, his muscles trembled, and suddenly, he smashed the handrail with a punch, stood up suddenly, and sighed: "Enough!"
Xiang Yang also accepted it when he saw it, jumped out of the ring, and Qin Xiaoyan fell to the ground.
Elder Qiu clasped his fists at the dean and said, "Farewell, I hope your academy is ready and we will meet again in three years." Then he turned and left.
Two disciples in the Xia Academy stepped forward to support Qin Xiaoyan, followed by Qin Xiaoyan, when Qin Xiaoyan was leaving, he stared at Xiang Yang viciously with red and swollen eyes, but Xiang Yang had no time to pay attention to it at this time.
Zhang Lin and the three of them stepped forward, slightly uncomfortable, "I was mostly offended before, please ignore the previous suspicions, and let me send you if you have something in the future." ”
Xiang Yang didn't say a word, raised his fist and slammed it into Zhang Lin's stomach, and Zhang Lin bent down in pain. This scene happened to be witnessed by Deacon Liu, and when he was about to step forward, he was stopped by an arm that appeared in the sky, and the dean said lightly: "Young people's affairs, let them solve it by themselves, there will be unexpected results." ”
Xiang Yang squatted down and looked at Zhang Lin from the bottom to the top: "Your actions before did bring me a lot of trouble, I don't have such a good measure, so this punch is the price you have to pay for what you did before, and the previous things are written off." ”
As Xiang Yang got up, Zhang Lin didn't feel like he got up under her influence.
Xiang Yang continued: "I forgive you, but I also want to advise you, this time it is your luck, if it is someone else, not to say that the other party will repay you, at least it will not let you pass the test so easily, you are so self-conscious." ”
It's not that Xiang Yang is noble, and he can repay his grievances with virtue. Everyone has a scale in their hearts to measure good and bad, gain and loss, but the standard of measurement is different.
In Xiang Yang's view, Zhang Lin's various behaviors a few days ago were just the boring works of the rich children, who came to the martial arts academy at a young age, and had Deacon Liu as a backer, and the disciples of the martial arts academy would not deliberately embarrass him. With the humility and pursuit of other disciples, it is inevitable that they are a little self-aggrandized, so they want to do something maverick to show their difference.
What's more, Zhang Lin did not bring substantial harm to Xiangyang, and even later realized that Xiangyang might be richer than he appeared, and he only collected that money as usual.
Xiang Yang wanted to say something more, but the dean stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and asked loudly: "Is it because of their behavior? Do you think they are too cruel? Do you think it's just a fight, there is no need to be so ruthless?"
Without waiting for everyone to answer, the dean said in a more stern voice: "Make everyone like this, when you walk out of the martial arts academy and step into the rivers and lakes, you will find that this is just a small trick, and there are even more and more outrageous existences." The most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart, and it happens from time to time that you were called a brother a second ago, and you will be stabbed when you turn your back. There is only one way, work hard, work hard, work hard, make yourself strong, so strong that these evil ways dare not appear in front of you, and even if they appear, you can crush them with one punch. ”
The dean continued: "How to become stronger? Then it depends on your next effort, disbanded now, go back and reflect." He turned to the elders and vice presidents around him and said, "You follow me to the council chamber, I want to hear everyone's advice." ”
Xiang Yang looked at the dean who turned to leave, and wanted to step forward, but was rented by the disciples of the Martial Academy who came forward, and after she explained, the dean was no longer visible in an instant, sighed lightly, and turned to deal with the people around him.
