Chapter 53: The Opponent
At this moment, He Lingfeng was standing in the Tianzi ring with the rest of the forty-seven people to draw lots, he put his right hand into the golden lottery holder, grabbed one at random, and saw that it was written "Xuanzi Ding" with a gilded small seal, so he knew in his heart that he was playing in the third competition of the Xuanzi ring.
One of the disciples of Xuandong Mountain before him was very unlucky to draw his fellow disciple, and he had already walked down in despair, as if his strength was not as good as his fellow disciple, and he already felt that there was no hope of victory.
He Lingfeng showed the lottery to the person who registered, and the other person who competed with him on the same stage had not yet been drawn, so he waited on the side for a while, until he saw an ordinary-looking, thin and tall disciple of the True Qi Sect also drew the "Xuanzi Ding" lot, He Lingfeng looked at this person carefully, but did not see anything special about him, so he felt that he should be able to defeat this person, so he walked down with a relaxed face.
After the draw was completed, everyone in the contestants had already gone down to prepare for a while, and the people of the eight factions on the field were waiting for the start of the main competition with their own minds. A quarter of an hour later, there were already two people standing in each of the four rings, and the four matches would be played at the same time.
As Qingyan gave instructions for the start of the competition, the eight people in the ring moved almost simultaneously.
In the Tianzi ring, it is a duel between the disciples of the Shenhuo Sect and the disciples of the Tianyi Sect, the disciples of the Shenhuo Sect who wear the fiery red clothes are naturally the disciples of the Shenhuo Sect, and the ones who are dressed in white are the disciples of the Tianyi Sect. The two sides saw the moves, and the fight made it difficult to distinguish between you and me.
The other rings are similar to these two competitions. And everyone in the audience shouted and cheered for their respective comrades, which was quite loud.
In less than a stick of incense, the four rings were divided into winners and losers, and the Tianyi Sect disciple in the Tianzi ring won a small victory by virtue of the advantages of the exercises. The winners of the other three rings were Xuandong Mountain, Bishui Sect, and Daozhenguan disciples.
The second competition started immediately afterward, and He Lingfeng also watched these competitions in the ring from the sidelines like everyone else. Although his expression on his face was quite calm, it was somewhat difficult to calm down in his heart, after all, it was the first time he had participated in such a scene, and it was impossible not to be nervous. However, since he realized that he was not in the right state, he had already started to silently operate the meditation method, so it would have been much better than it had been at the beginning.
Soon, the ground number ring took the lead in dividing the victory and defeat, and after a while, it was the yellow number, and a quarter of an hour later, the sky number number and the Xuanzi number ring were only ten breaths before and after.
After several Bishui Sect disciples cleaned up the mess left by the previous competition in the ring, Qingyan immediately announced the official start of the third competition. He Lingfeng, who was sitting in the arena, took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and then walked unhurriedly to the Xuanzi ring.
"Come on, junior brother!" the two senior brothers smiled almost at the same time. He turned to smile and walked on.
As soon as he walked to the ring five steps away, he saw that on the opposite side of the ring, a tall and thin young figure was like a monkey flipping into the air, and he was extremely agile and had jumped into the ring. He Lingfeng's eyebrows shrank slightly, his steps couldn't help but pause, and his heart couldn't help but be amazed by the agility of this opponent, it seemed that his previous thoughts were a little frivolous, and after thinking about it, he could be selected by various factions to come to the field to compete, which one did not have some outstanding points, so he solemnly became solemn, and then continued to take two steps and jumped into the ring.
All this is a long story, in He Lingfeng's mind, it is just a few thoughts that turn in an instant, and it is less than five breaths from the time he pauses to the time he stands on the stage.
At this time, the people competing in the other three rings had also arrived, so the Qingyan woman who presided over the competition swept her eyes over everyone on the field one by one to confirm that it was correct, and immediately sent a signal that she could start to move, so the eight people in the four rings bowed to their opponents at the same time and reported their names to each other.
"Sun Yihang, a disciple of the Zilan Mountain of the True Qi Sect, please teach Daoyou. The tall and thin young man said with a slight smile.
"He Lingfeng, a disciple of the deacon of the Wanhua Immortal Sect, asks Taoist friends to teach him. He Lingfeng also smiled and returned the salute.
Later, when the two of them stood up at the same time, their eyes shot out of their eyes, and they moved almost simultaneously.
He Lingfeng stared at his opponent closely, and quickly pinched the trick with both hands, and many golden points of light on his body quickly came out of his body, and an oval golden light shield faintly appeared, it seemed that he was planning to form a metallic shield defense first, adopt a strategy of defensive observation, and then improvise.
However, before the shield on He Lingfeng's body was halfway over, Sun Yihang had already summoned a pair of short swords with blue light flashing, holding one in each hand, and with a slight kick under his feet, his figure instantly accelerated, and he came over like a shadow in the wind. He Lingfeng was shocked, knowing that it was impossible to form a shield before the opponent attacked, so he gave up decisively.
I saw that He Lingfeng stopped pinching, and at the same time that his body flew backwards, his right hand wiped on the storage magic weapon, and a jade-white long sword appeared in his hand, which was the spirit sword "splitting" given by Feng Wuchen.
At this time, the opponent had already caught up with him, He Lingfeng didn't have time to think about it, raised his right hand and raised the sword body horizontally, protecting it in front of him, and then heard the sound of two gold and iron strikes in almost no order, and then his right arm sank, but he finally blocked the opponent's swift blow. And He Lingfeng took advantage of the power of the opponent's blow, and his body retreated sharply, instantly widening the distance.
He stood three feet away from Sun Yihang, staring at the latter expressionlessly, but he was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that the opponent was not only amazingly fast, agile, and not weak, but when he made the move just now, the force from the two short swords on the opponent's hands actually shook his left wrist a little numb.
Sun Yihang also didn't dare to underestimate his opponent at this moment, the disciple of the Wanhua Immortal Sect named He Lingfeng on the opposite side was able to give up casting spells to form a shield so decisively, obviously he was also a monk with a certain amount of combat experience, his judgment was not weak, and he was able to take his blow in a hurry, and his reaction was also extremely fast.
Just when he was thinking like this, He Lingfeng on the opposite side seemed to be planning to change his strategy and start to take the initiative to attack, only to see him seal his left hand, whisper a few incantations in his mouth, and then point to the long sword held in his right hand and wipe it, and a layer of golden light rose from the sword body, and at a glance, he knew that it was the effect of the infusion of metallic aura.
However, Sun Yihang's eyes narrowed, and he also saw some details of the other party.
"Imperial Sword Technique?, are you a sword cultivator?!" he asked He Lingfeng with a solemn look on his face.
"Yes, I also asked Daoyou to pick me up and try it, which is also a courtesy. He Lingfeng didn't hide it, and with a wave of his sword, the spirit sword let out a trembling sound, as if it was extremely cheerful. Then he poured the spirit sword of the golden flame flowing, rushed forward, and rushed straight towards Sun Yihang.
Sun Yihang knew that the attack power of sword cultivation was powerful, which was also recognized in the immortal cultivation world. At the moment, he didn't dare to slack off, staring at He Lingfeng, chanting a curse in his mouth, chanting words, and at the same time, the short swords in his left and right hands quickly touched each other, and the two swords turned into a blue and a red. He was holding dual swords, and as soon as he had done all this, He Lingfeng was already close.
"Water and Fire Twin Swords?" He Lingfeng, who had come to deceive, frowned, remembering that the second senior brother had mentioned this magic weapon unique to the monks of the True Qi Sect when he introduced the magic weapons of various sects to him, but this kind of magic weapon is not easy to refine, and it is relatively rare in this sect, so he didn't expect that his opponent would have it.
The thought in He Lingfeng's heart turned around, but his movements did not pause at all, and his right hand split the light spirit sword with a diagonal stab, and went straight to Sun Yihang's neck.
Sun Yihang's left blue short sword led upward, which was able to block the momentum of He Lingfeng's sword, and at the same time, the blue light on it trembled like water waves, and He Lingfeng only felt that the strength of his sword was easily dissolved by the other party like a mud cow entering the sea.
