Chapter 55: The Tournament

(On a new day, friends have recommended tickets to smash it)

――――――――――――――――――――

With the order of Changdan Zhenren, the bells and tripods rang in unison, and the martial arts competition officially began.

On the four high platforms, after the four pairs of disciples greeted each other, they recited the mantra together and started to move their hands. In terms of yesterday's competition, today's competition is more intense, causing bursts of applause.

Xiao Yi saw you coming and going on the stage, competing in fighting techniques, and felt that he was also ready to move, and his blood was boiling. However, unlike what everyone else was watching, he observed more of each person's movements, hoping to see the skills of mobilizing true qi.

I was looking at it attentively, and suddenly I felt a crowd of people, and they rushed towards the high platform in the east. Xiao Yi turned his head to look, but saw a Ming Ran Daoist standing on the high platform. Deng Shi understood, and said in his heart: "Look at the master's moves, and you will gain a lot." So he followed.

There was a hint of coldness in Ming Ran's calm expression, and the person opposite said quite politely: "Please teach Senior Brother Ming Ran." He just waved his hand and said neatly: "Just do it." And he said that he would do it, but when he drew his sword, stepped forward, and got close, it was almost done in an instant. When he pressed his sword against his opponent's throat, he drew only half of it.

I only heard two consecutive sounds of "dang, dang", and the results were already clear. The disciples were all stunned, asking each other, "Is this a Dao art competition?" and "Did he use Dao techniques?" And at this moment, Xiao Yi also showed a look of shock, and said repeatedly in his heart: "Stretch out your hand neatly, it turns out that Dao techniques can also be used like this." ”

Everyone was still unsatisfied, and they talked about it and dispersed. Xiao Yi stood straight for nearly half an hour, motionless, and kept recalling Ming Ran's actions in his mind, almost crazy. It wasn't until a thunderous cheer from the crowd woke him up from his addiction.

But on the stage, there was a quiet spiritual Taoist, and on the other side was a good-looking young disciple. Jing Ling held a three-foot narrow sword in his hand, his body was like a flying swallow, and every time he drew out the sword, it was like stepping on strange steps, dancing, and his posture was extremely beautiful. No wonder the audience applauded.

Different from others' fighting methods, the Quiet Spirit Fairy swims around the opponent with a light and agile body. In front of the sword, different bird forms are constantly conjured, including cloud swallows, white cranes, yellow finch, and larks.

The young man on the opposite side was plagued by the dense offensive of the Silent Spirit, and was completely on the defensive side. In Xiao Yi's opinion, the young man's Dao strength is much higher than Jing Ling's, but he is not skilled enough in his skills, and he does not have enough techniques, so he is in a situation where he has been beaten.

Sure enough, after not holding on for long, the young man suddenly retreated backwards, got rid of the birds, and arched his hand: "Brother is not the opponent of junior sister, so I am willing to bow down." "Free and easy, not frustrated by defeat at all.

Xiao Yi saw that the young man was able to get rid of the shackles of the Jing Ling so easily, and only then did he know that the young man had been letting the Jing Ling Dao all along, and if he fought with his life, the Jing Ling Fairy might not be able to block his blow.

Sure enough, someone in the audience was already talking: "Senior Brother Inscription can be one of the three people who are most likely to win the championship this year, how can he admit defeat like this?" Another person said: "In front of Senior Sister Jingling, can you bear to do it?" and another person said: "That is, if it were me, I would also admit defeat." ”

Of course, Jing Ling knew that the other party was letting him, so he hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Thank you Senior Brother Inscription for agreeing, and the little sister will make a sachet for you another day, which will be counted as a return." ”

The inscription laughed and said, "A word is a decision, but you can wait for your brother." "Jump off the high platform and walk away in style.

As soon as he heard that Jingling was going to send a sachet as a reward, the audience exploded. They all said that they would rather exchange the Zhantian Immortal Sword for this sachet, as for whether they can really exchange the Fairy Sword for the sachet, it is just a joke, and no one takes it seriously. But Xiao Yi looked at the back of the inscription and asked himself: "If it were me, would I be able to be so free?"

Throughout the afternoon, there were nearly ten fierce battles on each high platform, and half of the participating disciples were eliminated. Among them, Ming Hao won with his sword playing skills and advanced without any suspense. And Mingcheng, who lost under Ming Hao yesterday, won one game easily and entered the next round of competition.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

That night, Xiao Yi recalled various Taoist skills, and he couldn't calm down and practice for a while. In particular, the melee attack method of the Ming Ran Daoist made him feel a lot. Unconsciously, he grabbed a wooden stick according to his memory, imitating Ming Ran's movements at that time. What seemed like a simple action at the time, but at this time, it always felt extremely awkward and full of loopholes. It's either that the pace can't keep up, or the wooden stick in his hand is half a beat slower, and every time he does it, he feels that the true qi in his body is loose and weak, and he can't do it.

The same movement, practiced back and forth for nearly an hour, until I was sweating and panting, and finally felt a little trick in using true qi, and was able to reluctantly mobilize true qi for my own use. With the infusion of True Qi, its movements are obviously much more flexible.

In the second half of the night, Xiao Yi first used the method of reversing yin and yang to absorb the power of the moon, and then absorbed the yang spiritual energy to achieve a balance of true qi. When the morning came, the body was full of true qi and full of energy, laughed three times at the moment, and went out to meet his own big exam.
