Chapter 063: External Challenge

"Ha Luha, Nanyang City City Lord Zhao is here in a big way, and he has lost his welcome! This city holds a trial for young martial artists, can it be that Zhao City Lord has any advice?" Li Tianyang greeted him with a smile at the visitor, but his tone was not very kind.

"Mingyang City holds such a trial, but it shows that young martial artists are talented in large numbers! It just so happens that we in Nanyang City, there are also some young martial artists who can do it, and the city lord has brought a few of them over, let's communicate together, and the martial artists need to communicate more to make progress!"

"Is City Lord Zhao bringing someone to the city to challenge?" Li Tianyang asked flatly, and he was not in a very good mood when he was challenged by someone.

"There are so many young heroes in Guicheng, but it makes the city lord so envious! I learned that the martial artists in Guicheng are under the age of twenty, and the martial artists brought by the city lord are also at this age, but they are not as talented as Guicheng, and the city lord only brings only three people, is it possible that the city lord Li has no confidence in the young warriors in his city?" Although the Zhao city lord of Nanyang City did not say it explicitly, the meaning of the challenge was obvious.

"City Lord Zhao is willing to challenge, I'm afraid he has enough confidence in his own side! However, City Lord Zhao dares to bring people to challenge, and the young warriors of this city will naturally not disappoint the Junjie of your city!" Li Tianyang opened his mouth to accept the challenge, and then said: "How can Lord Zhao City challenge, just draw a line!"

Mingyang City and Nanyang City have always been at odds as a whole, and Li Tianyang and the city lord of Nanyang City are naturally not in harmony. Of course, there is more competition among them, and according to the practice of Dongchen Kingdom, the city lords are not local warriors, but are sent by the imperial capital.

The discord between the two cities as a whole is mostly due to disputes over interests, while the discord between the two city lords is the competition between the two city lords for the management of the city. Even so, without knowing it in advance, Li Tianyang was naturally in a bad mood when he was challenged by someone.

"The most simple and direct martial arts competition is the competition in the ring. The city lord doesn't have any trials, and it's time-consuming, laborious and troublesome, so let them challenge it freely. Nanyang City Lord Zhao said generously and indifferently.

"Ladies and gentlemen of Mingyang City, the Zhao City Lord of Nanyang City, with the three young heroes of Nanyang City, came to challenge you, what do you say?" After Li Tianyang and Zhao City Lord finished negotiating, he shouted and asked loudly in the face of the martial artists who participated in the trial.

"Fight! Fight!" The majesty of the warrior should not be underestimated, he was challenged by the door, and the warriors present were all actively responding to the battle, Li Tianyang's voice fell, and the audience resounded with a neat shout.

When the people from Nanyang City arrived before, the conversation with Li Tianyang was not small, and most of the martial artists who were closer to the center heard it. Therefore, as soon as Li Tianyang opened his mouth, it aroused the pride of the warriors, and even a more rude warrior shouted: "Those who are from Nanyang City, go back!

"Everyone be quiet! The friends of Nanyang City come to challenge, and we, as the hosts, cannot lose our courtesy. The city lord of Zhao proposed a competition in the ring and challenged freely, and the city lord had already taken it. As for the competition, we still need all the sons and daughters to perform well and win glory for Mingyang City!" Li Tianyang said loudly facing the martial artists.

"Rise to the challenge and win glory for the city!"

"Meet the challenge and win glory for the city!" Li Tianyang's words fully aroused the fighting spirit and passion of these warriors.

"Okay! The city lord will personally demarcate the venue for you to compete!" Seeing that the martial artists in this city were full of fighting spirit, Li Tianyang was very satisfied, and personally circled a square area with a side length of four zhang on the ground for the purpose of the competition.

This is undoubtedly pouring a fire on the hearts of these passionate young warriors, and the city lord personally demarcates the competition area, and competes in such a venue, although there is no high-standing ring, but there is boundless honor.

The square area with a side length of four zhang is originally a reference to the scale of the martial arts ring.

"City Lord Zhao, since it's a free challenge, let's just watch it from the side, please take a seat!" After Li Tianyang demarcated the competition area, he also showed the demeanor of the host and invited the city lord of Nanyang City to take a seat.

There was an audience seat on the top of the mountain, which was originally a trial, and it was all seats for representatives of the major forces, and it happened that the head of the Qian family left with the people of the Qian family, but there was no need to prepare again, just a little adjustment.

What's more, as a place of trial, Stone Cliff Island is already deserted, and there is nothing to prepare.

"Ouyang Xu of Nanyang City, the peak of the early martial realm, who dares to fight against the fellow martial artists of Mingyang City?" The first challenger of Nanyang City, entered the competition area, hugged his fists and saluted the martial artists of Mingyang City, and then shouted, his tone was full of provocation.

Different from the passion and fighting spirit shown before, everyone understands that since the other party dares to challenge, it is naturally a little bit of a pound, and no one rushes out of the city directly to meet the battle, and they all weigh it in their hearts.

After all, when you get into the ring, it is not a simple competition, but represents the honor of Mingyang City.

"Wang Jiang, the son of the Wang family of Mingyang City, the peak of the early martial arts realm, came to fight!" After a few breaths, one of the martial artists of Mingyang City walked out, it was Wang Jiang, who was seventh in the previous trial, and when he saw him fight, Li Tianyang, who was the first, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Other warriors saw that Wang Jiang was fighting, and they were also full of confidence in him, although Wang Jiang was not as famous as the four princes in Mingyang City, but it was second only to the four, after Du Jia Du Tian was out, it was he and Jiang Jia Jiang who left, competing for the position of the four princes, and their strength was naturally not weak.

"Hehe! City Lord Li doesn't know who to look forward to, how about we take a small gamble?" Seeing that both sides of the battle had already played, City Lord Zhao of Nanyang City said in a good time.

"The lord of this city is naturally optimistic about the warriors of this city, I don't know what Zhao Cheng is betting on, I will take it. Li Tianyang said angrily.

"Since City Lord Li is optimistic about the warriors of your city, and I am naturally optimistic about the warriors of Nanyang City, then we will bet on the victory or defeat of the warriors of the two cities, how about 100,000 gold coins per game?

"It turns out that you are eyeing my silk treasure armor!" Li Tianyang suddenly understood the purpose of his challenge, and he was originally very confident, but when he saw the other party's confident smile, he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and hesitated: "The bet of 100,000 gold coins per game is fine, but the bet in the back is a little bigger, right?"

Just kidding, Li Tianyang got the silk armor, and he didn't have it hot in his hand, and he couldn't allow any situation that might be lost.

"Is City Lord Li unable to afford to gamble, or does he not have confidence in the warriors of your city?" said Zhao City Lord, who said sarcastically.

"Bet, gamble!" As soon as Li Tianyang's temper came up, he couldn't care so much, no matter what he lost, he just couldn't lose.

"Okay, City Lord Li is refreshing!" City Lord Zhao praised loudly, and then continued: "Our three warriors in Nanyang City, facing more than two hundred of you here, you can't use wheel battles, and when the warriors on our side feel tired, you have the right to ask for rest. ”

"Since it is a martial arts competition, it is natural to be fair and just, how can the city lord let his warriors fight with wheels?" Li Tianyang asked rhetorically, but he also agreed to the proposal of the city lord Zhao.

While Li Tianyang and the city lord Zhao of Nanyang City were talking about the bet, Ouyang Xu of Nanyang City and Wang Jiang, the son of the Wang family, had also begun to fight.

The two soon exchanged dozens of moves, and all of them were Wang Jiang attacking, Ouyang Xu had been defending, and the people on the side of Mingyang City were very relieved and excited!

But then, most of the warriors on the side of Mingyang City did not look good.

Wang Jiang has been attacking all the time, but he didn't touch the other party in a single move, obviously the other party did not contribute, and the strength of the two can be seen.

"What kind of skill are you hiding around, if you have the courage to fight me head-on. Wang Jiang saw that after a long attack, he didn't even touch the corners of the other party's clothes, and he also understood the gap between them, but he still had a trace of illusions, thinking that the other party was just fast, and hoped to repel the other party head-on.

The reason why Wang Jiang was the first to fight was also to hold his breath in his heart, in the past, the younger generation of Mingyang City was the stage of the four princes, and he and Jiang Li's names were indistinguishable. But later, one of the four princes was out, and Jiang Li made up for it, so he was naturally very unconvinced, especially when he lost to Jiang Li in the trial.

He originally wanted to show himself and prove that he was not weaker than Jiang Li and others, but now that this situation is like this, how can he not be anxious in his heart.

"I have let you for so long before, and I still don't know what to do, if it weren't for the fact that I wanted to see the strength of your Mingyang City martial artists, you would have been defeated in three moves. However, it's the same if you defeat you now, you only need three swords!" Seeing Wang Jiang speak, Ouyang Xu said arrogantly.

Ouyang Xu's weapon is a sword. The other two people from Nanyang City were also armed with swords. The three of them came from different families in Nanyang City, but they all had a common identity, they were all disciples of the city lord.

The city lord of Nanyang City is named Zhao Pingshan, and his strategy is different from Li Tianyang's strategy of containing the major families in Mingyang City, and he mainly focuses on wooing the major families. But because he is winning over all the families, he has a very high prestige in Nanyang City and is very popular, but he can't control the battles of the families below.

"Arrogant! Even if you are fast, it is not so easy to defeat me with three swords. Wang Jiang was despised, so he was naturally furious and attacked Ouyang Xu again.

"The first sword, break your attack" This time, Ouyang Xu did not rely on speed to dodge, but drew his sword and broke Wang Jiang's attack head-on, his sword was extremely fast, so fast that he could only see a piece of light and shadow.

"Big brother, what do you think?" While the two were fighting, the rest of the warriors were more concerned about the outcome of the battle, and learned more from their experience. Long Fei was also a person who used a sword, and when he saw Ouyang Xu's fast sword like a shadow, he couldn't help but ask Wu Tianxing.

"Hurry! It's too fast, Wang Jiang will be defeated in this battle! It's not that Wang Jiang is too weak, but Ouyang Xu is too strong, if he goes all out, Wang Jiang will be defeated with one move!" Wu Tianxing said in amazement. Martial artists compete to win or lose, not a life-and-death struggle, often between masters, that is, a move to determine the winner or loser.

"Second sword, break your weapon" Ouyang Xu's voice came out again, and with a sword shadow, Wang Jiang's sword had already flown out.

"The third sword, lock your throat" Ouyang Xu took out the sword for the third time, and when the words fell, the tip of the sword was already pointing at Wang Jiang's throat.

Three swords, one sword is faster than the other, even the opponent has to be amazed by his sword speed. Similarly, everyone also understands that people really didn't contribute before, and it's still hard to say whether they are doing their best now.
