Chapter 10: The Contest (I)
The next day, after Ma Chuan finished practicing ghost boxing and washing, he came to the big cafeteria, and as usual, greeted the formal disciples who went to the cafeteria for breakfast. found that many people ignored him, and some people glared at him angrily, even the people who responded to him were also ridiculed by others.
"Look at your bear-like appearance, you have become a genius disciple so quickly. ”
"Nonsense, this is obviously a master of the Saipi Raft. ”
"Yo, the raft master also carries water himself. ”
"Yes, since the raft race is so good, it's better to go outside and be a boatman, and come to Longquan Villa to show off. ”
......
Ma Chuan didn't understand why these people were sneering at him today when they were still on good terms with him yesterday. This scene made him feel very bad, and he absentmindedly finished picking up water, and then returned to the dormitory, and began to sit cross-legged, he wanted to stay in the palace of that mysterious space, so that he could forget the loneliness of reality.
Three days later, on the shore of Longquan Lake, more than 80 teenagers gathered again, and there was a high platform made of trees near the tower.
"Today, you brothers and sisters will come to have a discussion, first say good, the point is up, if you dare to deliberately hurt others, Zhuang Gui will deal with it. Wang Daoming stood on the high platform with his clothes fluttering, and said unhurriedly: "The rule of competition is that you can only use the martial arts you have learned in the past three years, and other martial arts are not allowed to be used, let alone weapons and hidden weapons." ”
"There are eighty-one of you, now divide into three teams. Wang Daoming gestured casually, and many teenagers were divided into three teams, with 27 people in each team.
As soon as it was divided, Ma Chuan looked a little embarrassed, and the people in his team were far away, like his team.
"The three of you teams are called A, B, and C, and now the two teams A and B are standing one-on-one and going on stage in turn. Wang Daoming has already gotten off the wooden platform.
Ma Chuan was assigned to Team C, and watched the two teams A and B start to compete one-on-one, although it was a competition, but the two people on the stage had tried their best to learn for three years, and the boxing techniques they used were indeed much more wonderful than ghost boxing, so they carefully observed their moves.
After the two teams A and B competed, they rested for half an hour, and team A and team C stood one-on-one and began to compete on stage.
Opposite Ma Chuan stood a thin young man, also twelve or thirteen years old, with a relieved expression mixed with joy and pride.
"Li Xiaoshan, let's change positions. The tall young man beside the thin boy glanced at Ma Chuan and said coldly.
"Brother Xue, it's not appropriate for you to clean up this boatman. The thin young man looked at Ma Chuan with contempt.
"You don't let it, you want to be famous and want to go crazy, aren't you? "The tall young man is going to make a move.
"The next group is on stage!" one of the deacons shouted.
Hearing this, Ma Chuan walked towards the wooden platform.
Li Xiaoshan ignored the tall young man and walked towards the wooden platform.
The two clasped their fists on the stage and saluted.
"Team A Li Xiaoshan!"
"Team C Ma Chuan!"
Li Xiaoshan took the opportunity to lean in and whispered: "Boatman, Longquan Villa is a place to learn martial arts, not for you to show off and row a raft, I want to teach you how to be a man for all the teachers and brothers." ”
Ma Chuan was already bored, but he was very angry at this time, and roared angrily: "Please advise!"
Then there was a move that swept through thousands of troops, the speed of the shot, the precision of the proportion, and the strength of the strength were all beyond everyone's expectations, and the punch hit Li Xiaoshan in the chest.
When Li Xiaoshan was just about to use his proud move, before he understood what was going on, he fell to the ground, and he wanted to get up but he couldn't do it, so he had to say unwillingly: "You sneak attack!"
"Ma Chuan wins, Li Xiaoshan loses. The deacon finished shouting and took notes.
There was an uproar in the audience, and there were constant discussions, and few people cared about the next discussion.
"This Li Xiaoshan is really beyond his strength, thinking that the boatman is so easy to clean up, I can't come Xue Yi. The tall young man was very happy to see that Li Xiaoshan had lost, and said in an old-fashioned manner.
"Xue Yi, you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue, although the boatman has only learned ghost boxing, but he is so fast, I am afraid that few of us senior brothers can do it. A relatively steady teenager said.
"Hmph, no matter how powerful he is, he's just a miscellaneous disciple who only knows how to race a raft. Another teenager said coldly.
......
Listening to these words, Ma Chuan finally understood why those formal disciples had changed their attitude towards him.
After Team A and Team C competed, Team C and Team B began to compete one-on-one.
The opponent Ma Chuan encountered this time, his martial arts were notoriously poor among the official disciples, and he was defeated by him with three moves and two styles of ghost fist.
Many formal disciples were not surprised, and they were very happy, thinking about how to meet Ma Chuan in the next competition, defeat him easily, and become famous from then on, and be more valued by those seniors in the village.
By the time team C and team B finished fighting, it was not too early, and Wang Daoming took the stage to announce: "Team A will win two games, team B will win one and lose one, and team C will continue to compete tomorrow."
The next day, many teenagers gathered by the lake again, and Wang Daoming announced on the wooden platform: "Those who were in Team C yesterday don't need to compete, you still need to work hard in practice, and today you will be trained by the 27 people who were in Team B yesterday." ”
Many teenagers in the audience were not calm, and the twenty-seven people of Team C understood that they had been eliminated, except for scolding them for their bad luck, the opponents they met were too strong, and the people of Team A and B were lucky, and they were helpless.
Yesterday's 27 people from Team B were once again divided into three teams, A, B, and C, with nine people in each team, and began to compete one-on-one like yesterday.
This time, it only took half a day to finish, and the nine people who won two games today are Team B A, the nine people who won one game and one loss are Team B B, and the nine people who lost two games are Team B and C.
In the afternoon, the 27 members of Team A yesterday were also divided into three teams, A, B and C, with nine people in each team, and competed one-on-one as they did yesterday.
Ma Chuan and the famous masters among the formal disciples became the focus, and the mood of the viewers was naturally not comparable to the previous competition.
After two actual battles, Ma Chuan became more and more proficient in ghost boxing, and the opponents he encountered were not too strong, and after some hard fighting, both opponents in this round were defeated by him.
After this round of competition, many masters emerged.
The winner of two games is Team A and A, the winner of one game and one loss is Team A and B, and the winner of two games is Team A and C.
On the third day, Wang Daoming announced again: "Yesterday's team B and A, team B and B, team B and C, and team A and C don't need to compete, you practice hard, but in the future, you must understand the key to martial arts, and this morning will be played by nine people from yesterday's team A and B." ”
Team A and B were again divided into three teams, A, B, and C, with three people each, and then began to compete as they had done in the previous two days.
However, these nine people are really outstanding in martial arts, and every battle is a hard battle, and the disciples who were eliminated in the audience are full of excitement and have benefited a lot from it.
Ma Chuan also carefully observed the martial arts of these people, and he did have some luck in paying to become a member of the A team.
The winner of two games is Team A, B and A, one win and one loss are Team A, B and B, and two losses are Team A, B and C.
In the afternoon, it was the most exciting stage of the whole competition, and the nine members of the A and A teams were all outstanding in martial arts, of course, in the hearts of most of the disciples, they had to get rid of Ma Chuan, a lucky and vain boatman.
