Chapter 18: Rising Star
Today, the ring in the center of Lanzhou City ushered in the second head competition, Xu Ning, the head of Qingcheng, and Yan Zhao, the head of Tangmen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough yesterday's competition was so far, there was such a terrifying and bizarre thing as Qin Changfeng's seven orifices bleeding, so the major leaders discussed the next few competitions, and the major leaders were wearing invulnerable special armor, which was given by the imperial court and was worth 10,000 taels of gold. After Xu Ning and Yan Zhao put on the battle armor, they felt quite inconvenient to move, and their bodies were slightly sluggish. The rules of the tournament are that as long as one team's weapon hits the opponent, this convenience wins.
The disciples of the various sects began to bet again, the disciples of the Tang Sect and the Qingcheng faction naturally pressed into this sect, and the disciples of the other sects valued Yan Zhao, the head of the Tang Sect, more seriously, although Xu Ning was a rising star, his strength should not be underestimated, compared to the old and cunning Yan Zhao, he was still not favored by some people. Therefore, this bet is basically seven or three open.
Yan Zhao ranked fifteenth on the whole network, and Xu Ning ranked sixteenth on the whole network. There is not much difference between the two in the ranking of force. Yan Zhao's Five Poison Silver Needle ranked eighth on the weapon rankings, and Xu Ning's Wanyue Bow ranked ninth on the weapon rankings, both of them chose the way of long-range attacks today, only to see the two of them standing on the left and right sides of the ring, about ten meters apart. Yan Zhao shook his left hand, and the five silver needles flew quickly, as fast as a beam, and everyone under the ring held their breath, but no one could see the trace of the silver needles, but they saw that Xu Ning had already opened the bow and shot arrows, and there was a banging sound, and the arrows actually knocked down the five silver needles to the ground. Everyone was amazed, it was incredible, everyone couldn't figure it out, the five scattered silver needles were actually shot by Xu Ning's arrow, if this kind of thing wasn't seen with their own eyes, I'm afraid no one would believe it.
"Senior Brother Liu, can you see clearly what is going on with the power of your heavenly eye?" Xie Sha pulled Liu Hao and said suspiciously.
"I can't see it clearly!" Liu Hao said with a wry smile, "This speed is by no means visible to the naked eye, and you can only guess the approximate position of the silver needle by hearing." ”
"That being the case, this Brother Xu Ning is too powerful, can't he see clearly, how can he shoot accurately?" Xie Sha became more and more confused.
"It is not ordinary people who can sit in the position of the leader, Yan Zhao's five poisonous silver needles are certainly impossible to prevent, and Xu Ning's waning moon bow and arrow are even more mysterious, and today is really an eye-opener. Liu Hao let out a burst of emotion. According to his thoughts, the art of bows and arrows pays attention to precision and speed, but the arrow shot by Xu Ning definitely does not rely on precision and speed to achieve this effect. An ordinary person shoots an arrow, and the arrow of the arrow points forward, and flies straight forward. The arrow Xu Ning shot was spinning and flying forward, and because of this, it was able to hit the scattered five poisonous silver needles.
"In my opinion, the new head of the Huashan Sect must have already gathered information about Yan Zhao's moves, otherwise, he would not have been able to shoot such a spinning arrow at the last moment. Luo Yaoxi speculated on the side. Hearing Luo Yaoxi say this, Li Yueting suddenly thought about it, and then said to Luo Yaoxi with a smile: "Boss, it seems that this intelligence collection is too important, should our Emei's secret group also be established?"
"What Sister Yueting said is that only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. After the joint attack of the five major sects against the Demon Sect is over, we will immediately return to the Emei General Courtyard and start to establish Emei's secret group. ”
Yan Zhao was stunned for a moment when he saw that the five poisonous silver needles he had used with all his strength were actually shot down by Liu Hao's arrows, but fortunately, he had also been crawling and rolling on the rivers and lakes for many years, what strange things had he never seen? Everyone was embarrassed and amazed. How could the disciples of the various sects present ever see the head of the Tang Sect, who was known for his secret weapons, being suppressed by the other party in this way? For Yan Zhao, as long as he used the Five Poison Silver Needle, the other party would normally dodge and be suppressed, but today he was countered by Xu Ning's bow and arrow, wouldn't it be a joke?
Shame is shame, Yan Zhao will not conclude that he can't compare to Xu Ning. He suddenly had an idea, and stood quietly in place without moving, just staring at Xu Ning. After a long time, Xu Ning pulled out the arrow from his back, opened the bow and shot it, and the arrow shot towards Xu Ning quickly, but he saw that Yan Zhao's face did not change, and he stretched out his finger indifferently, and he actually caught the arrow that was shooting quickly. This time it was Xu Ning's turn to be stunned, and everyone in the ring exclaimed, all of them praised Yan Zhao's chic and free movements. If Xu Ning hit Yan Zhao's silver needle with an arrow and barely suppressed Yan Zhao's attack, then Yan Zhao's finger holding Xu Ning's arrow can be regarded as completely suppressing Xu Ning's attack.
Xu Ning did not admit defeat, he pulled the work, and five arrows fired a salvo, but saw five sharp arrows flying towards Yan Zhao quickly, Yan Zhao looked confident, leisurely stretched out his right hand, and his fingers were clamped, and the five arrows were caught by Yan Zhao at the same time. Yan Zhao, as a first-class master of the Tang Sect's secret weapon, has excellent eyesight, and his judgment of the trajectory of Xu Ning's arrow shot at this moment is extremely accurate. The disciples of the Tang Sect actually screamed with excitement at this moment, as if they had already won the battle. Xu Ning had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he had never felt so tricky when he duel with Ye Qianyuan, the previous head of Qingcheng. He was able to defeat Ye Qianyuan because he knew too much about Ye Qianyuan, and he also got a way to restrain Ye Qianyuan from Xu Xiaohua. But for Yan Zhao, the head of the Tang Sect, Xu Ning's understanding of him is at most on the five poisonous silver needles, and Yan Zhao can only use his fingers to clamp the arrows he shoots with all his arm strength, which makes him feel that this person is really more difficult to deal with than Ye Qianyuan. Martial arts generally have the attribute of mutual restraint, Xu Ning can restrain Ye Qianyuan, but in terms of strength, he seems to be far inferior to Yan Zhao.
Just when everyone thought that the outcome of this duel would be without suspense, Xu Ning suddenly said loudly: "Since we can't attack each other, it's better for us to duel blindfolded." The crowd in the ring suddenly remembered the shout: "Blindfolded, blindfolded, blindfolded......" Everyone was both excited and surprised by this proposal, and the disciples of the Tang Sect were expressionless. Yan Zhao originally wanted to raise objections to this proposal, because he had already planned in his mind how to defeat Xu Ning, but as soon as he heard the shouts from the audience, he suddenly took back the words that had just come to his lips. If you don't agree at this time, doesn't it mean that I, Yan Zhao, am afraid of this offspring boy Xu Ning? So Yan Zhao readily agreed to Xu Ning's proposal for a blindfolded duel, and the two of them blindfolded themselves with a brocade silk at the same time, and at this time there was silence in the ring, and everyone held their breath and stared, for fear of affecting the hearing of the two people who were blindfolded in the duel on the stage.
In fact, Xu Ning has no bottom on the blindfolded duel, and the reason why this proposal suddenly came out is only because he has already felt that he is in a very unfavorable situation in the competition of suitable talents, and if the stalemate continues, he will definitely lose, and the blindfolded duel, the situation of the two is similar, at least they can gamble.
However, if Yan Zhao is really like Xu Ning thinks, then he is too underestimated Yan Zhao, as a master of hidden weapons, the cultivation of eyesight and hearing is completely compulsory, Yan Zhao's eyesight is already visible, and what he is really powerful is his hearing, which can hear a person's faint breath from a hundred meters away. At this point, Xu Ning really made a mistake in his wishful thinking, he was already noticed by Yan Zhao as soon as he moved to the right of the ring, and suddenly five five poisonous silver needles flew towards Xu Ning, making a banging sound, and the two silver needles hit Xu Ning's battle armor, and this competition finally announced Yan Zhao's victory without suspense and with great twists and turns. Under the ring, the disciples of the Tang Sect cheered, as the end of the five major sects that were weaker than Huashan and had even been surpassed by Emei, the Tang Sect finally raised its eyebrows.
"Master Yan is worthy of being a master of hidden weapons, and the younger generations admire him. Xu Ning clasped his fists and bowed. It was almost dusk, and the disciples of each sect returned to their residences.
