Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Ninth Day
"Why?"
Ouyang Zishi lost his voice. Yang Ji's words were too sudden, and they could even be said to be rude and reckless. But Ouyang Zishi knew that Yang Ji would never harm him.
There's definitely some reason why he says that.
"Senior Brother Yang, why is this? That Cao Dian looks so powerful. I wonder if I can fight him so that I can help a little when you run into him. β
Ouyang Zishi's eyebrows could not hide his depression and discoloration.
As a martial artist, who doesn't want to fight against a master who is better than himself. There are so many candidates in the Blood Furnace Realm in the Martial Arts Division, do you think that you can be on the list.
It's not for more knowledge, more experience, and preparation for my own enrollment in the future.
Ouyang Zishi had already investigated in advance, and he had a game with Cao Dian today.
Ouyang Zishi didn't expect to win, but as long as he had a trick with such a master, he would be fine.
He was originally eager to try today, but he didn't expect that Yang Ji would let him abstain directly. It's even very limited, don't even go up to the ring.
Ouyang Zishi has a lot of respect for Yang Ji, and it is difficult to say no words. But there is always some reluctance in my heart.
"That Caodian is not something you can touch. β
Yang Ji shook his head:
"You sent someone to follow Caodian, and even I found out. If Cao Dian was originally only going to hurt you in the ring, then now, once you get in the ring, he will probably kill you completely. β
"Ahh
Ouyang Zishi looked shocked. He really wanted to say whether Yang Ji was joking or not, after all, no one could be killed in the martial arts examination. But looking at Yang Ji's expression, it doesn't look like a fake at all, and then it reminds me of Cao Dian's style. and the continuous evaporation of the people sent out to follow during this time, suddenly felt a sense of fear in my heart.
"He wouldn't dare do that, would he?"
Ouyang Zishi said in disbelief.
Yang Ji didn't speak, and many thoughts flashed through his mind. Ouyang Zishi's identity, through guΓ² Zhao slippery their mention. Yang Ji had almost guessed it.
Although he was demoted to Langya County, he was a disciple of the family after all, and he was still under some forces and subordinates.
A few days ago, when Ouyang Zishi sent someone out to keep an eye on him, Yang Ji had already noticed it. I didn't care about it at the time. But this "martial arts" exam made Yang Ji understand something.
The origin of this Caodian is mysterious, and he is definitely not an ordinary candidate. If Ouyang Zishi keeps people watching him again, he will either die in the ring or die outside the ring.
Although the martial arts examination pays attention to the point to the point. No one can be killed. But Yang Ji had a feeling that these things were completely inapplicable to this Caodian.
If Ouyang Zishi was not a disciple of the Iron Crown Sect, and he was relatively close to him, Yang Ji would not have been prepared to say it.
"There are always people in this world who can't be touched. This Caodian is one of them. That's not dangerous, it's deadly. My JianyΓ¬, while it's still too late, hurry up and withdraw your people. Also, stay away from him. β
Yang Ji said seriously.
Ouyang Zishi's eyes were uncertain. It seems to be unwilling, and it seems to be afraid. After a long time, he finally sighed deeply, hung his head and said:
"Yes, senior brother, I listen to you. β
Yang Ji's martial arts, strength, and experience. are much stronger than him. On the issue of Caodian, he chose to believe Yang Ji after all.
Don't dare to say anything else, at least one thing, Yang Ji will never harm him.
"It's best if you think so. β
Yang Ji paused and said, "Regarding this Caodian, I have some ideas. But there is no way to know for sure. I have to wait until the end of this martial arts examination. β
"Yes, brother. β
Ouyang Zishi made a decision, but let go in his heart:
"That's right, senior brother. I found a lot of strange things about that Caodian. My men followed him a few times, but couldn't find where he landed. It's nothing, after all, his martial arts are very powerful, and it's not surprising to lose it. β
"However, although many times it is lost. But there are many times, and there is always something to gain. On several occasions, I found his traces near the official residence. He seemed very interested there. β
Ouyang Zishi said.
"Official?"
Yang Ji's eyelids jumped, and he looked over, and a scorching light burst out of his pupils.
"Hmm. β
Ouyang Zishi nodded seriously: "My people can see it clearly, there will be absolutely no mistake!"
Yang Ji frowned and remained silent.
Although he knew that Ouyang Zishi had sent someone to follow Cao Dian, he didn't know what he had gained. In fact, this kind of tracking is quite common.
During the martial arts examination, for those candidates who are sharp and have a very high voice, there will always be other candidates who send people to follow up and investigate, and even check the other party's origin, origin and files.
"Knowing oneself and knowing the other side can win all battles" is not very surprising. Yang Ji himself felt that he was being watched several times.
But Ouyang Zishi said that Caodian haunted near the official mansion, so it was completely different.
During the martial arts examination, everyone's energy is focused on improving their strength or finding out the opponent's situation. If you talk about value, the most worthless thing now is the government.
"The martial arts competition is personal strength, what is he doing in the official mansion at this time?"
Yang Ji frowned and was silent.
Although Ouyang Zishi only said that Cao Dian haunted near the official mansion. But Yang Ji can be sure that Caodian's "target" must be the government.
It's just that there are some civil servants in the government, or ordinary martial arts, and the powerful ones will not exceed the martial arts triple, and they have nothing to do with the martial arts, so what is Cao Dian doing there?
"Normal candidates, who would waste time running to the official mansion? This Caodian drunkard does not mean to drink, and his focus does not seem to be on the martial arts examination at all. It's just that the government is full of trivial daily life, what can be in his eyes? Is it a document?"
Yang Ji frowned and was silent.
The documents in the government are all trivial things such as spring and summer, autumn harvest and winter storage. What do these things do to Caodian?
Yang Ji shook his head, he really couldn't figure it out.
After a long groan, Yang Ji finally came back to his senses. Grabbed the wooden sign on the table, shook his sleeves, opened the door and walked out:
"Let's go. The race is about to begin. β
Today is the ninth day of the martial arts examination. Although the number of people is smaller, the competition is more intense. Of the remaining seventy or eighty people, almost all of them are exceptional!
And unlike Wu Luo's exam, this exam is open to the outside world.
Yang Ji and Ouyang Zishi stepped into the martial hall, and there was a sea of people inside, a lively scene.
"Senior Brother Yang. Congratulations. β
A few figures parted the crowd and squeezed through. Yang Ji glanced at it and had some impressions, they were all disciples of the Iron Crown Sect. It's just that I don't usually deal with each other.
And Yang Ji doesn't live with them either.
At this time, they all came to congratulate and respectfully.
"Thank you. β
Yang Ji smiled and said politely. The person who came was a guest, not to mention a disciple of the same faction. It doesn't matter how much friendship there is or not.
After these three people, the Black Sword Sect also came over.
"How did you do in the martial arts test yesterday?"
Chen Zhu pinched a jade Ruyi in his arms and walked over with a smile.
"It's ok. However, the final result will not be known until the last day. β
Yang Ji said with a smile.
"Haha. A line is a line. No, it just doesn't. If you feel good, then you can't go far from ten. β
Chen Zhu patted Yang Ji's shoulder and said happily.
Coming from the main altar of the Tianyin Sect, Chen Zhu's good impression of Yang Ji is now exploding.
"Come on! With your talent, as long as you can obtain the fame of Wu Xiucai, you will definitely have a bright future in the future. β
Chen Zhu paused and said:
"It's just a pity. None of these guys from our Black Sword Sect were angry, and they all came home. Those bastards of the Iron Sword Faction. It's up to you to figure it out. β
Saying this in his mouth, Chen Zhu didn't have much regret on his face at all, but there was a taste of pride. In this competition, although the Black Sword Sect returned with a feather, the Iron Sword Sect did not get any benefits.
When the people of the Black Sword Sect met the disciples of the Iron Sword Sect, it was completely like fighting for their lives. Defeated a lot, and also eliminated a lot. Sometimes, even if the Iron Sword Faction wins, it is greatly damaged by the Black Sword Faction's method of fighting for its life, and it still loses in the later games. I suffered a lot of losses.
For this, the people of the Black Sword Sect were quite proud, and in the end, they finally did not disgrace the sect.
However, there is still some gap between the Black Sword Sect and the Iron Sword Sect after all, so it is the Iron Sword Sect that wins in the end, which is probably the only regret.
"Hehe, Senior Brother Chen, the most angry thing now should not be your Black Sword Sect, but the Iron Sword Sect, right?"
Yang Ji smiled and stretched out a finger, pointing at several disciples of the Iron Sword Sect in the distance who were breathing fire in their eyes and looking iron-blue.
Everyone followed Yang Ji's fingers and couldn't help laughing.
As long as the Iron Sword Sect can be deflated, for everyone, this is the best success.
"However, Senior Brother Yang, you also have to be careful. β
Chen Zhu stretched out a shoulder, patted Yang Ji's left shoulder and said:
"You're a little bit different this time. The elite disciples of each faction are also counted, even sects like Baitou Mountain and Black Water Cliff are here. Just these people, your list is invisibly missing. β
"Also, in addition to these people, there is another person I think you should pay attention to. β
"Oh?"
Yang Jijian raised his eyebrows slightly, looking like he was listening. What can make Chen Zhu specially remind him must not be an ordinary person.
"Langya has a wealthy disciple named Shi Zhongye, who also participated in this martial arts examination. ...... Yang Ji, don't be careless, this guy's strength is very strong. I watched him make a move, and I compared it in my heart. If it were me, I am afraid it would not be his opponent. β
Chen Zhu said.
Yang Ji finally cheered up a little. Chen Zhu is the peak of the martial arts fivefold Xiao Zhou Tian, and his blood and qi are masters of lead. can make him bow down and consider himself not an opponent.
The strength of this Ishinakano is absolutely amazing.
"This man's skill is unfathomable. I feel like the game is up to now. He's probably not going to do his best yet. Although he is not as good as the white giant deer in Baitou Mountain, he will definitely not be too different. That's not the key for me to remind you, though. You should still remember that Shi Qing from the Shi family. I've seen it a few times, the guy shows up next to him, and the two of them are very close. β
Chen Zhu persuaded:
"What kind of person Shi Qing is, you know better than me. I'm building yì, be careful with this stone in the field. (To be continued......)
