Chapter 21: The Chosen Apprentice (1)
When everyone watched, it was Xiang Bei who stood up first.
Although Xiang Bei and Huang Xie are only one side, they are very impressed by his quiet and elegant, modest and polite demeanor, and they have a good impression. Seeing that he turned out to be an examiner today, I couldn't help but be very curious, and seeing that everyone was unwilling to be the first to end up, I knew that everyone was selfish and didn't want to be a stepping stone for others. But he disdains this, and with his character, he would rather rely on his own strength to win the entry qualification.
Dingbei hugged his fists at Huang Xie and smiled: "Brother Xian, you are a real person who does not show your face, it turns out that you are a master of the Yue Nu Sword Sect, the foolish brother is not talented, I am willing to take the lead in trying, and the virtuous brother can be merciful." ”
After that, Xiang Bei walked to the weapon rack, picked up a wooden gun, waved it, and then said to Huang Xie: "Come on, I want to try the magic of the Yue Nu swordsmanship." ”
Huang Xie smiled slightly, didn't answer, pulled a sword flower, took a light step, and said in a low voice: "Please try the first move." ”
As soon as the words fell, the wooden sword in his hand was already fluttering towards Xiang Bei. Xiang Bei knew that Huang Xie could represent Wei Yi in the face of fifty people to try to recruit apprentices, and his martial arts must be extraordinary, so although he saw that Huang Xie's first move was weak and weak, he didn't dare to take it lightly in his heart, and he was on guard with both hands holding the wooden gun. Sure enough, when Huang Xie's wooden sword was about to reach Xiang Bei's body, his move changed, and the wooden sword, which seemed to be coming slowly, suddenly accelerated, as fast as a swift wind, and stabbed straight towards Xiang Bei's face. Xiang Bei had already been on guard, and with a move of "raising fire to the sky", he went straight to the wooden sword. This move seems simple, but it is one of the most powerful moves in Xiang's marksmanship, which is like a thunderbolt, with a force greater than a thousand jun, and has the essence of disease, accuracy and ruthlessness. Unexpectedly, Huang Xie's swordsmanship changed again, his body followed the sword, and he walked lightly, not only easily avoiding the puff of the wooden spear, but the wooden sword changed direction strangely, and suddenly slashed towards Xiang Bei's lower body. Xiang Beibei was shocked, he never expected Huang Xie's move to change so quickly, and his move was too old to resist the gun, so in a hurry, he threw the wooden gun and rolled on the spot, which was worthy of avoiding Huang Xie's sword.
Huang Xie's move is the starting style of the Yue Nu swordsmanship, called "chasing the wind", one move and three styles, although it is not a fatal killing move, but it is a move in the move, which is impermanent, and when facing the enemy, it can often take the lead in one move. Xiang Bei had never seen the Yue Nu swordsmanship, so naturally he couldn't anticipate the enemy first, but fortunately, he finally used the snake body technique, so he didn't lose a move, but he was also embarrassed.
Everyone saw that although Huang Xie's first move was tricky and strange, it made him like clouds and water, chic and free, and forced Xiang Bei, who was known as the first master of the young generation in Yingdu, to be in a hurry, and almost lost, and they couldn't help but cheer loudly in surprise.
Xiang Bei got up and said to Huang Xie: "Brother Xian's swordsmanship is so fast, and his neat skills are really worthy of being a disciple of a swordsmanship master! I've given up my gun now, and I'm going to fight you empty-handed. ”
Huang Xie said with a smile: "The junior brother has known that Brother Xiang has learned a magical boxing technique, called snake boxing, which is very mysterious, and the younger brother has admired it for a long time. ”
Xiang Beidao: "Okay, the foolish brother is ugly, please ask the virtuous brother to recruit." ”
Huang Xie's body changed again, his feet were light, and he floated towards Xiang Bei, using the second move of the Yue Nu swordsmanship, "Lightning". This move is still quick, but faster than the first move, "Chasing the Wind". I saw that Huang Xie's body was as light as a swallow, his sword was like lightning, and his body and sword were one, and he had stabbed in front of Xiang Bei in an instant. Seeing this, Xiang Bei was not flustered, he did not retreat but advanced, and his fists actually met the wooden sword. Seeing that Xiang Bei was about to be hit by the wooden sword, at the moment when the fists and swords intersected, Xiang Bei's body suddenly twisted, and he was able to avoid the blade of the sword, and his fists changed direction with the momentum and hit Huang Xie's arms. Huang Xie didn't expect Xiang Bei's body technique to be so wonderful, and hurriedly retreated, dodging Xiang Bei's sharp blow, but the second move "lightning style" was also in vain.
Huang Xie praised "good" in his mouth, but he didn't give Xiang Bei a chance to breathe, and the third move "Star Rain Style" swept Xiang Bei like a starry shower. Xiang Bei only saw a sword shadow, and he couldn't tell which sword shadow was virtual and which sword shadow was real, he only felt that his whole body had been completely covered by the sword shadow. This move is one of the best moves in the Yue Nu swordsmanship, and it is extremely difficult to practice. It not only requires fast body skills, but also requires superb techniques, and at the same time, it also requires the whole body to concentrate on the true qi and complete it in one go. Generally speaking, the world's famous swordsmanship, or the body is fast, or the technique is subtle, or the technique is profound, if you can combine the three, it is a stunt. And this move "Xingyu style" is the stunt of Yue Nu's swordsmanship. Only by learning this trick can it be regarded as a swordsmanship against the Yue girl. Huang Xie practiced for three years before he achieved a little success. But even if it is Xiaocheng, it is difficult to resist ordinary swordsmanship.
Just when everyone thought that Xiang Bei was going to lose, they saw Xiang Bei's body suddenly lean back, and then his body slid to the side incredibly, which made this seemingly unavoidable "star rain style" fall through. Not only that, after Xiang Bei avoided Huang Xie's attack, his body stood upside down, and he actually nodded his head to the ground, and his whole body suddenly rose into the air, and his feet slammed into Huang Xie's back. Fortunately, Huang Xie reacted quickly enough, seeing that the situation was not good, the fourth move "rolling curtain style", reflexively hit Xiang Bei, forcing Xiang Bei's body to turn back again, thus resolving Xiang Bei's ferocious offensive.
Xiang Bei was unforgiving, taking advantage of Huang Xie's unstable foothold, his arms grew violently, his fists were like poisonous snakes spitting letters, and he attacked Huang Xie's side very trickily and strangely. The offense and defense reversed for a while on the field, and Xiang Bei actually had the upper hand.
However, Huang Xie's body technique is very subtle, Xiang Bei looks very fierce attack, but there is no threat to Huang Xie. When Huang Xie dodged Xiang Bei's attack again, he took advantage of Xiang Bei's old move to take off again and attacked Xiang Bei with the fifth move "Willow Style".
The name of "Whisking Willow Style" sounds very gentle, but it is actually a very fierce offensive move, even the soft willow branches will be brittle under the sudden sword blow, so it is called Whisk Willow. And the angle of attack is very tricky, which is difficult to guard. After Xiang Bei made a move, he disappeared from Huang Xie, and he felt very bad, and he was about to turn around to look for the enemy, but when he heard a "snap", the wooden sword had hit his back. Although the strength was not large, it only made Xiang Bei's body stagnate, but Xiang Bei knew that according to the rules of the competition, he had already lost.
The audience was silent, and everyone forgot to cheer and cheer under the shock of Huang Xie's mysterious swordsmanship. And the eyes that looked at Huang Xie were full of awe. The contempt for Huang Xie in everyone's hearts before was all gone. Xiong Huai was even more dumbfounded, he really didn't expect that this cousin, who looked weak and elegant, and was still a little shy and shy when he saw him, turned out to be a master of swordsmanship. This made him very happy in his heart, because Huang Xie obviously had the intention of defecting to him, didn't this mean that he had another loyal subordinate with superb martial arts?
Although Xiang Bei was reluctant to lose, he admired Huang Xie's swordsmanship so much that he threw himself to the ground, and he knew that even if he could still hold on, he would only have the ability to parry, and he would not be able to fight back, and he would never be able to survive ten moves. So Xiang Bei said briskly to the guards on the side: "I lost." ”
lost within five moves, and Xiang Bei obviously failed.
Xiang Bei shook his head regretfully, and walked to his seat on the viewing platform dejectedly. When passing by the front desk Wei Yu's seat, Wei Yu suddenly shouted:
"Childe stays, may I ask whose son is Childe?"
Xiang Bei saw Wei Yu's question, hurriedly stopped, respectfully saluted Wei Yu, and then replied:
"The disciple's name is Xiang Bei, and he is the eldest grandson of the Xiang family. ”
Wei Yu continued to ask, "Is the fist technique that Childe just showed a serpentine fist?"
Xiang Bei replied: "Lord Keqing is well-informed, and the disciple is using the Serpentine Fist. ”
Wei Yi nodded and said, "Miao Jiang's serpentine fist really lives up to its reputation, especially the serpentine body method is really mysterious and magical. It's a pity that the son hasn't practiced for a long time, and the appearance is similar but not the same, otherwise, Xie'er may not be so easy to win you. I don't know who Childe's master is?"
Xiang Bei hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "The family teacher is a hermit in the mountains and forests, and he is not known to the world, please forgive the disciple for not revealing the name of the family teacher." Hearing this, Wei Yu was stunned for a moment, and did not continue to ask, and said in a soft tone:
"Childe's qualifications are extraordinary, you can't be slack in practice, your future achievements are not as good as yours. ”
Xiang Bei was inexplicably interrogated by Wei Mi, and finally was greatly praised, just didn't know what Wei Mi's intentions were, but saw that Wei Mi had turned his head, squinted his eyes slightly, and seemed to be starting to close his eyes again. Xiang Bei had no choice but to return to his seat full of suspicion.
Now, most of the people on the field have given up their plans to compete, they think that they are not even as good as Xiang Bei, and the competition is also asking for hardship, and even embarrassing, so it is better not to compete.
However, in the end, two more unconvinced players were put to compete. One is Jing Li, who thinks highly of himself, and the other is Uncle Zhao, who regards martial arts as his life.
It's a pity that under Huang Xie's mysterious swordsmanship, the two of them didn't even survive three moves, and they returned miserably. ‘
There was a look of chagrin on everyone's faces, and some of them were originally full of hope, thinking that they might be able to get the favor of Wei Yi by showing their own strength, but they didn't expect that the threshold of the competition was so high that they couldn't cross it at all. There are also some children who want to watch the excitement, hoping to enjoy the dragon battles one after another, but unexpectedly, the competition of the apprentices has become completely crushing, and there is no suspense on one side, which can't help but be extremely disappointing.
However, at this time, no one thought that the competition was over, because there was still a heavyweight who did not appear. So, when Uncle Zhao walked back to his seat in a depressed mood after his defeat, no one paid attention to Uncle Zhao anymore, but focused their eyes on Nineteen together. Nineteen's recent fame has almost become a legend in Yingdu, so everyone is looking forward to his fight with Huang Xie.
The reason why Nineteen never appeared was not to wait for Huang Xie to compete with everyone else, so that he could be opportunistic, but because the speed of the competition was too fast, and before he could fully observe Huang Xie's swordsmanship, the three competitions had ended. And, apparently, no one will ever play again except him.
Of course, Nineteen is going to be tested, although Huang Xie's Yue Nu swordsmanship is impressive, but it still makes Nineteen fearful.
In full view of everyone, Nineteen calmly walked to the competition venue, and then hugged Huang Xie with his fist:
"Brother Huang is so powerful, Brother Xiang didn't survive the five moves, let's compete, you have to be merciful!"
