Chapter 493: Friendly Match
The next day, Chen Hao took Xiao Yi and three disciples to various places in Wenxin Academy to watch the open student competition.
In addition to the common fighting methods, sword competitions, and squad confrontations, which are quite ornamental traditional competitions, the Wenxin Academy has also moved many unpopular items, even those that seem to have nothing to do with Qi cultivation, to the competition field.
For example, professional competitions such as alchemy, talisman making, and refining, as well as various projects such as poetry, painting, and calligraphy.
And each event, there is more than one event, and there is more than one way of the event. Poetry, for example, is divided into writing and recitation.
Watching these competitions was not only interesting, but also greatly increased the horizons of several disciples.
However, Chen Hao's mind did not focus on the event. He was still thinking about what gift to bring back to Su Yi.
It's not because Chen Hao, like a child, accepted Su Yi's gifts several times, so he thought about returning the gift.
He usually doesn't pay much attention to the details of this courtesy exchange, but it's definitely not stingy, it's just due to his personality. Su Yi's gift was not so much to make Chen Hao want to reciprocate, but to remind him to do so.
But when I think about it, I can't find anything meaningful enough.
There are hundreds of millions of spirit stones, and I don't know what suitable gift to buy, which is also a strange anecdote!
"Why did the disciples of the Door of Life and Death also play?" Ah Yue's puzzled voice interrupted Chen Hao's thoughts.
Chen Hao looked up, and now there was a competition of "training qi warrior tactical confrontation" on the school field. On one side were the winning students of the Academy, and on the other side, there was a group of people wearing bamboo hats, linen robes and straw sandals.
Chen Hao remembered that he was dressed up like this, and he was indeed a visitor from the Datong Empire at that time. It's just that I didn't pay too much attention, so I don't know which sect's attaché it is.
Listening to Ah Yue's words now, it seems that he knows the identities of these people.
A teacher on the field came out and said to the audience and the contestants: "The tactical confrontation has already ended, and the winner is the 'Vulture Team' here." However, among our guests, Du Zhenjun, the deacon of the Shengmen of the Life and Death Gate, was overjoyed when he saw that he was hunting, and he happened to bring a team of outer disciples out, so he proposed to have a friendly match.
"After the negotiation between Ma Saijiu and the Department of Educational Affairs and General Affairs, we agreed to this play-off in line with the principle of 'friendship first, competition second'. The play-offs do not participate in the competition rankings, but only compete and learn from each other.
"Let me now introduce the two sides involved in the war. The Vulture team is a veteran team of the Asking Heart Academy, and since its establishment three years ago, in the tactical confrontation game, the record is thirteen wins, one draw and four losses. Winning the championship in this 900th anniversary celebration can be regarded as a matter of expectations. This is the captain of the Vulture Clan, classmate Xie Lingshu. Mr. Xie, do you have anything you want to tell you?"
There was a student from the Vulture Clan, but Chen Hao recognized it. This Xie Lingshu also participated in the "joint operation", but there was no special performance, so Chen Hao had not paid special attention to him before. Unexpectedly, it was actually the captain of the team who was a little famous in the Asking Heart Academy.
Xie Lingshu nodded to the surrounding audience, mainly the teachers and students in the courtyard, with a smile and a nod of salute: "We have an attitude of learning from the old sects and the Daoists of the Life and Death Sect that have been inherited for thousands of years. Therefore, victory or defeat is not very important, and the exchange between the two sides is what we value. ”
This Xie Lingshu looks a little low-key, although his words are decent, but as a home field, it lacks some momentum, which makes the teachers and students of this college a little less confident.
After Xie Lingshu retreated, the teacher looked at the disciples of the Life and Death Gate and said, "The Life and Death Gate sent ...... It's the 'Vegetable Chopping Team' with no record because they have just been formed in the form of our team, and this is their first game. Their captain is Wang Fugui, known as the 'Kitchen Knife King', Captain Wang, do you have anything to say to everyone?"
When everyone heard the teacher's words, they couldn't help but shake their heads.
It's not good to give this temporary team of life and death, but it is necessary to set up a "vegetable cutting team".
However, their captain originally had the title of "Kitchen Knife King", so it is not good to accuse their names of deliberately insulting words. After all, the word "chopping vegetables" is not particularly insulting, but it always carries some contempt.
If you use the name of the combat team, it is not a violation. Team names can be taken from domineering and arrogant words, which has the benefit of adding to the morale of the team. Therefore, the teacher could only honestly report their names.
But in this way, it suddenly made everyone in the Vulture Clan's face show a look of resentment. If they are their opponents, does that mean that they face their own team like chopping melons and vegetables?
The onlookers and students, of course, were mostly looking at the team of their own academy, and they were also very dissatisfied when they heard this name.
Wang Fugui was holding a hat, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but his cultivation was higher than Xie Lingshu's, and he had the strength in the middle stage of foundation building. He stood up and said briefly, "Please ask the Heart Academy team for advice!"
He didn't say "Vulture Team", but he said "Asking Heart Academy Team", and his attitude was very obvious.
This means to look down on all the teams of the Asksin Academy!
The audience originally took into account that they were guests from afar, and the name of the beginning or something, although they were dissatisfied, they were just stuffy in their hearts. As soon as Wang Fugui's opening remarks came out, everyone was suddenly unwilling to endure it anymore.
"Xie Lingshu, teach them a lesson!"
"Vulture clan, take out your strength and let them see who is the knife and who is the vegetable!"
I don't know who started it, so everyone cheered up the vulture team.
This game is not casual, and the Asking Heart Academy, including Meng Fei, Ma Aiyu and others, are all paying attention behind the scenes. And Du Keqing, who was at the door of life and death, also took the remaining two or three followers to watch the battle.
At this time, hearing the dissatisfied voices of the people in the Asking Heart Academy, Du Keqing laughed, and nodded and said, "This is what a competition looks like." What kind of friendship and what kind of study, it's too hypocritical! In a word, it is to fight, it is to win!"
Ma Aiyu laughed dryly twice, and at this point, his temperament was obviously inferior.
It was obviously a mockery, but Du Keqing seemed to be deliberately stimulating everyone's fighting spirit and making the game more serious and intense.
Everyone in the Vulture Clans stirred, but was stopped by Xie Lingshu raising his hand. He said to the players: "Don't be arrogant or impatient, just treat it as a normal game and try to play a collective cooperation." ”
At this time, if you are impetuous, facing an opponent who is full of confidence, it will not increase your chances of winning. It's better to play steadily and strive to rely on rich confrontation experience to win the opponent team that has just been formed!
