Chapter 11 Victory
The competition of Huayang Rivalry was attended by a total of 32 disciples sent by the five sects. Catch the fight, the winner advances, 32 into 16, 16 into 8, 8 into 4, 4 into 2 and the final champion and runner-up competition, respectively, one round a day, in the front mountain square of the Yuanchen Peak with stone slabs and blue bricks to build 16 competition platforms, each round, dismantle half. Today is the beginning of the five-day competition period, and the stone platforms that occupy a large area crowd the entire front mountain, but if you look closely, the thickness of the crowd outside is very different. The northwest corner of the main branch of the thriving Kaminari Gate and the southeast corner of the main branch of the Water Gate, which is full of female disciples, are bustling with each other, and even the boundary of Yemen, which is usually not very public, is far more lively than the competition platform in the center of the square.
Early in the morning, my father and mother and the senior brother accompanied the slightly stronger 245 senior brothers to the arena respectively, and the third senior brother and the eighth senior brother, who were slightly weaker but had excellent popularity, were also surrounded by everyone. On the contrary, it was his little junior brother who was usually the most precious, and no one even got up to shout, because he only slept for half a night, if it weren't for the cleaning handyman who was more diligent, he rushed to the house early in the morning, I am afraid that he would have become the first contestant in the history of Huayang Battle.
Absent-mindedly along the way, just hanging his head and kicking the stones under his feet as he walked.
It was really a boring start, against Lu Xinwei, a great disciple of Huomen, an older young man over thirty. In Chu Yunyi's impression, such an old person who was still participating in the Huayang Competition, if he was not as ill-fated as the Fifth Senior Brother, he could only be like several other older Senior Brothers—very ordinary.
Alone, strolling and pacing, but suddenly a coquettish laugh interrupted the empty thoughts.
"Senior Brother Yunyi, you're here too!" A girl dressed in a plain robe brushed her bangs in front of her forehead, a pair of big and bright eyes looked at her seriously, and a sweet and sunny smile hung on her face that was not amazing but very clear.
"Star Swirl, is that you?" This fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl named Star Swirl, is the adopted daughter of Wen Zhongquan, the elder of the Long Gate, because Wen Zhongquan was Chu Xiuping's senior brother in Fengmen in his early years, and the two families came and went quite frequently, this little girl of Star Swirl not only became one of Chu Yunyi's few childhood playmates, but also because of her lively and lovely personality, she often went to Lin Wanrong or Lin Wanrong's senior sister, Fang Xue, the current head of Watergate, to live in the apartment, and her friendship with Chu Yunyi was not deep. Whether it is his mother's arms or his mother's maiden family, it is an excellent choice for Chu Yunyi to avoid his father's clutches.
Chu Yunyi smiled and stroked the hair of this slim girl who had not been seen for many years, and said with a smile: "What, did you come to see me play?
"Isn't it?" Hearing Chu Yunyi's words, Star Swirl's enthusiastic face suddenly became a little gloomy, and said with some suffocation: "As soon as we met, Senior Brother Dongfang, Senior Brother Dongfang, those sisters in Watergate are really right, in our Huayang faction, everyone who is handsome likes men!"
"And this statement?" Chu Yunyi sighed helplessly, and after thinking about it, he figured out the approximate reason. Senior brother Fang Rulan has a chic appearance and elegant manners, but he is nearly thirty years old and unmarried, and those who know the inside story certainly understand that he has not been able to make a breakthrough in his cultivation, and he blames himself for not being able to fulfill his master's expectations, so he doesn't care about him and concentrates on cultivation. In the eyes of the female disciples of Huayang, who admired him, who practiced in the pile of men all day long but completely ignored their affectionate behavior, it could only be an explanation from Long Yang's broken sleeves: "I just have a few cultivation problems that I want to ask Senior Brother Dongfang, and besides, interacting with a humble gentleman like Senior Brother Dongfang will also be of great help to the improvement of my character and cultivation." ”
However, just as Chu Yunyi explained with a smile, a white-robed young man with a paper umbrella and a teapot with a big burden on his back came panting and came to the two of them.
This twenty-six-seventeen-year-old young man, dressed in a Taoist robe, was a little distracted because of the heavy loads on his body and his fast running, none other than the "humble gentleman" in Chu Yunyi's mouth—Elder Wen's only disciple besides Star Swirl, Dongfang Huaiying.
"Senior Brother Chu, the foolish brother is late, I hope you don't be surprised!" "The conversation and demeanor are polite and courteous, and the appearance is also a talent, that is, the porter's general appearance, a bit of a real ...... forget it, don't say it."
"Senior Brother Dongfang, you ......" Chu Yunyi looked at this "life-saving benefactor" who had interceded with Senior Brother many times for himself, and he could only swallow the words of beauty back into his stomach, and he wanted to speak, but he didn't know how to say it.
"Come Star Swirl, the sun is shining, put this on first!" Dongfang Huaiying didn't mind, because his attention obviously didn't stay on Chu Yunyi's body for long, and after saying hello, he was busy settling his little junior sister up. The paper umbrella that shades the sun is opened, the warm tea is poured, and the service is properly served, I am afraid that those princes and nobles in the mortal world can't help but be envious and jealous.
"Ah, Senior Brother Huaiying, the focus is on Senior Brother Yunyi, Senior Brother Yunyi!" Star Swirl said coquettishly pulling Dongfang Huaiying's sleeve and pointing at Chu Yunyi.
"But, I only brought you one of this cup!" Dongfang Huaiying looked embarrassed and looked at his little junior sister helplessly.
"Forget it, I'll come when I go, and I'll talk about it later!" Chu Yunyi looked at this pair of living treasures, all kinds of speechless, and hurriedly withdrew, then performed his unique light skills and swept over.
Who knew that as soon as they walked together, Dongfang Huaiying's right hand stretched out like electricity grabbed the collar and pulled it down.
"Okay, okay, then Senior Brother Yunyi, go quickly, let's cheer you on!" As soon as Star Swirl's words landed, Chu Yunyi felt a huge impact on his back, and his already light body had rushed towards the previously arranged martial arts platform like an arrow from Xuan.
Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind -- if there was also a man who was considerate of himself and quite good at martial arts, I am afraid that the deep-rooted opinion of liking women might not be shaken by this.
However, just as Chu Yunyi was wandering out of the world and thinking about life, he felt a sharp pain under his feet, and then his entire body was hit hard.
That's right, he became the first person in the history of Huayang Rivalry to climb the competition platform on his stomach without any suspense.
Unprecedented, extraordinary!
In a short moment, in front of the martial arts competition platform, after a thunderous laughter, he was surrounded three times inside and three times outside.
Fortunately, today's head of the sect was unexpectedly ill and could not attend the opening battle of Huayang Competition, otherwise I am afraid that even if Chu Yunyi won the championship, he might not be able to be allowed to enter the Changmen to study.
As the saying goes, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind. Just when Chu Yunyi buried his entire face on the bluestone ground, seriously and carefully considering what posture was the most handsome to climb up, suddenly a shout with huge power smashed into him like a sledgehammer, almost stuffing his entire head into the gap in the floor of the competition platform.
"Senior Brother Yunyi, come on, come on! Failure is not terrible, even if you are beaten and your nose is blue and your face is swollen, your father and mother don't know you, we will always support you! Stand up wherever you fall, wipe the tears from your face, you are a really good man!" Star Swirl, who was riding on Dongfang Huaiying's shoulder, shouted, her high-pitched and sweet voice drew more crowds, and the already enthusiastic laughter became even more jubilant, and the applause and whistles rose higher and higher!
"No, no, no!" a carp suddenly stood up, and said angrily, covering his face and walking towards the stage.
However, the matter was far from over, because his vision was obscured, Chu Yunyi walked to the center of the competition platform with great mistakes, and just as he was passing through the center to the other edge, the red-robed older man in his thirties on the stage reached out and put his hand on his shoulder: "Little junior brother, I heard that you are a well-known celebrity in the entire Huayang faction, wouldn't it be a pity to leave like this and not let the senior brothers and sisters in this stage see your skills?"
"Let it go!" Chu Yunyi was bent on leaving quickly, and he didn't want to say a word to this waste wood who was completely unworthy of his age.
But obviously the other party didn't think so, and said that Chu Yunyi had a false name, and he was afraid that it would be even more unbearable to show his stuff in public, not only did he not retreat because of Chu Yunyi's vicious words, but also increased the strength in his hand, and said provocatively: "If I don't let go, you can ...... me."
But before he could finish his words, Chu Yunyi's right hand climbed up his arm like a ghost, and he fell to the ground without any resistance, and at the same time, Chu Yunyi's empty left hand was held in the air, and the surrounding water vapor was instantly condensed into a sharp ice blade, and at the same time as he fell to the ground, it hit his throat without deviation.
In an instant, it was as if the flow of time had been abruptly stopped, and the laughter and screams that had been like a tidal wave a moment before were suddenly extinguished.
"Is it more than that?" Chu Yunyi said word by word, and the bright sun and blue sky behind him had turned into pitch black without warning, and the sudden wind swept across the bluestone martial arts platform, and the audience near the edge even began to stumble and sway.
"It's ice and snow!" A few Huayang disciples who were a little more knowledgeable finally reacted, this is the prelude to the highest level of immortal art in the water system - ice and snow, if it is used completely, the snowstorm like a knife falls, I am afraid that even if Lu Xinwei on the stage has nine lives, it will be difficult to escape the heavens.
The two Nagato elders who served as judges and referees stood up nervously as if they were facing a great enemy, and Lu Xinwei, who was slammed to the ground like a fish on an anvil, was even more earthy and drenched in cold sweat.
"I ask you if it's better than you!" Chu Yunyi shouted, every time a word landed, the wind became stronger, and the dark clouds became thicker.
By this time, there was no other sound around the entire arena except for the sound of hunting wind, after all, even a blind person who was blind could see that the person who could perform such a high-level immortal technique without even holding a magic trick in his hand was definitely not the way they had looked when they laughed at the inverted color before.
To put it bluntly, terrifyingly strong!
"It's not comparable! it's not comparable!" Lu Xinwei repeated the words he heard when he stopped Chu Yunyi at the beginning, and a puddle of warm water appeared under him.
"Accept!" Chu Yunyi's left hand tightened, the ice blade in his palm was crushed, he turned around and bowed to the two elders who had already stood up, and walked off the competition platform with a high spirit.
Everyone watching the battle just stared blankly at Chu Yunyi's distant back, as if they were still immersed in the atmosphere and couldn't get out, until Star Swirl's beautiful voice sounded again, and the applause that pierced through the clouds and cracked stones immediately burst out.
"Chu Yunxiang, Yi Tianji, Yu Yu Lingxiao, invincible!"
