Chapter 43: Sword Fighting
The next day, just after the dawn, Dichen got up, freshened up and stepped out of the door, ready to come down to the hall for breakfast, but he didn't expect the opposite door to squeak open, and Qianchuan Yan also finished freshening up and walked out.
"Let's go down and eat something!" Di Chen smiled, turned around and went downstairs, Qianchuan Yan followed behind, as for the greedy wolf, he had already been included in the contract space.
It didn't take long for Nie Jingtian and the four of them to come down from upstairs, and the six of them sat together, drinking morning tea, eating steamed buns, and they didn't have anything special to eat early in the morning, so they just filled their stomachs.
"Senior Brother Nie, how have you been in Sword City for so long?" Di Chen stuffed half of the steamed bun into his mouth, and asked inarticulate as he chewed.
"Well, it's no different, almost all of them stay in the room and practice, and of course there's a special event. Nie smiled mysteriously.
"What special event, is it fun?" Dichen was interested.
"It's fun, but if you're lucky, you can earn a lot of yuanshi. Chu Yifeng said, still didn't say anything.
"What kind of activity is that?" Dichen asked again.
"If you're unlucky, you're going to post ten yuan stones upside down!" Lei Dong said, still not saying anything.
"You ......" Emperor Chen was angry, who didn't know that a few people were playing tricks on themselves.
"I'll tell you!" Huang Chong turned his head over like a good old man and said, "It's a fight!"
"Fight, what kind of special event is this?" Dichen wondered.
"Of course, it's a special event, except for Sword City, there is no such event anywhere else. Huang Chong retorted.
"Where, how?"
"Sword fighting!"
"What is that?"
"Sword fighting is ......" Huang Chong was repeatedly asked by Di Chen, and he himself did not express it well, and he was suddenly a little impatient.
"Senior brother, tell him, it's annoying, I'm busy eating steamed buns!" After speaking, he swallowed a steamed bun and poured half a pot of tea.
As soon as Di Chen heard what he said, he quickly turned his head to Nie Jingtian, and Qianchuan Yan also raised his head and looked at Nie Jingtian.
"The so-called sword fight is actually not a strange thing, it is just a ring set up in Sword City, a place for cultivators to come and go to compete with each other. ”
"Oh, are there any rules?" Di Chen asked, and he was a little itchy as well.
"As a challenger, you can only challenge once a day, and if you fail to challenge, you will give the winner ten yuan stones, and if you succeed in the challenge, you will become the champion, and each champion will accept the challenge of up to ten challengers every day, and this is the case for every battle, and the loser will give ten yuan stones to the winner. Nie Jingtian simply explained the rules to Di Chen.
"That's right!" Di Chen understood, but then there was a new question.
"Who's going to decide the winner?"
"Each ring has a person in charge who decides the winner of the fight, and of course, the winner of each round must hand in three of the ten yuan stones. ”
"Are they fair, can the losers be convinced?" Dichen still asked.
"There shouldn't be any problem, although the sword ring is said to be opened in Sword City on the surface, its backstage must be related to the Battle Sword Valley. Chu Yifeng interjected.
"War Sword Valley, one of the six major sects of the righteous path?" Di Chen was surprised, he didn't expect to pull out such a big force.
"It seems that you can't earn much yuan stone every day!" Di Chen counted with his fingers for a long time, and suddenly spoke.
"Of course, but I forgot to tell you just now, as a champion, it would be another matter if you can win on a winning streak. Lei Dong said mysteriously.
"What's the other way?" Dichen asked.
"Win the first game of ten yuan stones, if the second game can win in a row is twenty yuan, the third game can win in a row and then double forty yuan, and so on, and if you lose, you need to pay not much, others end the champion's several consecutive wins, the champion pays ten times the corresponding number of yuan stones, for example, to end four consecutive wins, then pay forty yuan. Only three pieces will be given to the ring leader for each win, regardless of whether or not there is a winning streak or how many consecutive victories there are. ”
"This ...... That's not a small amount. Dichen was dumbfounded.
According to his idea, everyone can accept the challenge of ten people as a champion every day, except for the first time as a challenger to get ten yuan, if he can get ten consecutive wins, there will be 5,120 yuan in the tenth game alone, plus the number of the previous nine consecutive wins, it is really terrifying, and the number handed over to the person in charge is only the number of eleven games, that is, thirty-three yuan, which is just a drop in the bucket.
"Don't dream, there are so many people coming and going to Sword City, who do you think will be able to survive a few consecutive victories?"
Di Chen was thinking that a lot of Yuan Shi would be included in the ring by himself, and Huang Chong burst into a chestnut and poured a basin of cold water by the way.
"Even if you can't hold on, if you win four or five consecutive victories, you will have hundreds of yuan stones, which is already very good. "Dichen's dead duck has a hard mouth.
"Four or five consecutive wins?" Huang Chong was stunned for a moment, and wanted to burst again, Dichen had already taken precautions, and quickly dodged away.
"If someone challenges you halfway, you can't rest, and there are ten sword rings, one king-level ring, three general-level rings, three division-level rings, and three sergeant-level rings, which are divided into three stages: high, medium, and low. In other words, there is not much difference in strength between each challenger in the ring, and no matter how strong the strength is, it can't withstand a few rounds. ”
"Didn't you fight before, and what was the result?" Di Chen asked, looking at Chu Yifeng, Nie Jingtian and the others.
Nie Jingtian's general level is threefold, and he should be considered the top in the general-level low-level ring, and Chu Yifeng's nine-fold peak should also be the top in the division-level high-level ring, so Di Chen asked them.
"I won four consecutive victories in the low-level ring of the general level, and I was defeated in the fifth game, and I met two generals in the triple realm during this time. Nie said helplessly.
"I'm pretty much the same, there are not a few masters at all stages of Sword City, don't think it's easy. Chu Yifeng said. Next to him, Lei Dong and Huang Chong also nodded.
"It seems that it is really not simple!" Di Chen heard the words of the four of them, and said with a smile, and knew that it did not seem to be as simple as he imagined.
"Otherwise, you think that the Yuan Stones are all over the place waiting for you to pick them up!" Huang Chong said with a striking.
Di Chen quickly shut up, and then he will definitely be hit by that guy again, listening to them, it seems that it is not easy to earn Yuan Shi, and the winning streak is calculated, and the one that defeated the previous champion is not counted.
"Then let's hurry up, while it's still early, there are probably many stage masters who haven't come yet, and then we can win a few more games, even if people don't challenge, they can also buy time to recover their Yuan Li." Dichen was silent for a long time, but he couldn't help but speak.
"Do you think that you are already the champion, and you are starting to think about winning streak?" Huang Chong seemed to be waiting for Di Chen to say this, and even the words of the blow were already ready, and he pulled it out in one breath.
"I ......" Dichen was speechless, indicating that he had lost to him.
"Haha......" Next to it, Nie Jingtian, Chu Yifeng and Lei Dong suddenly burst into laughter, and even Qian Chuanyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Dichen deflated.
"Alright, alright!"
After a long time, Nie Jingtian finally stopped laughing and said, "Regardless of whether what Dichen said makes sense or not, since he is so anxious to go and see, let's go, maybe Dichen will really be able to hold out for a few rounds by then!"
......
When I came to the sword ring, there were already many people waiting there, and in addition to the tenth ring, there were already champions in the ring, these people were really early enough, Di Chen sighed secretly.
"It is said that early birds are eaten by insects, but don't sigh that early insects are eaten by birds for a while, hahaha......" Chu Yifeng said with a smile.
Masters with stage surnames like him and Nie Jingtian can hold up three or four rounds every time, and dozens of yuan stones arrive every day, so they are naturally in a good mood.
Di Chen followed Nie Jingtian and the others to the ring, and finally saw that the first to third rings were the sergeant-level rings, which were low-level, middle-level and high-level, the fourth to sixth rings were division-level rings, and the ranks were also from low to high, and the seventh-ninth rings were general-level rings; as for the tenth ring, it was a king-level ring, but it was almost negligible, because king-level cultivators would not care about this Yuan Shi.
looked at the people around him, and sure enough, there were many powerful characters hidden in each stage, and they were not in a hurry to go on stage, but watched the battle in the crowd first, waited for the opportunity, and seized the opportunity to go on stage to win a few more games in one fell swoop.
"You watch their fight first, don't rush into the ring first. Nie Jingtian turned his head and told Di Chen.
"I know!"
Di Chen nodded, and seriously looked at the master of the No. 3 ring, who is a master of the Ninefold Realm, although it seems that he has just advanced to the Ninefold Realm, but it should not be underestimated, he is the first to come to the stage today, and there is no challenger on the stage yet.
Dichen also saw that on the edge of each ring, there was a man in his thirties and forties who was closing his eyes and resting, calmly waiting for the challenge to begin, so that they could make a decision.
Sword fighting stipulates that the champion cannot cross a day, that is to say, after the end of the first day, the champion is no longer the champion of the second day, and needs to be redecided, of course, if you are the first to arrive on the stage and the first to take the stage, then reduce one battle and become the champion directly.
"I'm going to fight you!"
Dichen was looking at it, when suddenly the crowd shouted loudly, following the prestige, but saw a thirty-year-old young man leap onto the No. 3 ring.
"Nine Realms masters, some of them have watched!" Di Chen smiled, finally a battle started, he also wanted to take a good look and prepare for his own appearance later.
If you don't try it when you come here, Dichen can't help it.
"Get ready and go!"
The person in charge after the ring spoke lazily, and in an instant the two of them were fighting together, the sound of weapons clashing, the sound of fists and palms clashing, and the cultivators watching the battle in the audience also made a fuss, and the cheers were higher and higher.
"Flying Flower Sword Technique"
The challenger shouted, pulled out hundreds of sword flowers with the sword weapon in his hand, and attacked the champion in unison, and the speed was too fast to guard.
"Ugh!"
Sure enough, the champion blocked dozens of sword flowers, but he was hit in the chest by the remaining ones, and fell to the ring with a muffled snort, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't recover his combat strength for a while.
"If you succeed in the challenge and become the new champion, the loser will pay ten yuan stones. The person in charge announced.
The champion slowly got up, obediently handed over the Yuan Stone, turned to come down, and after deducting three pieces, the person in charge threw the remaining seven pieces to the winner, and began to close his eyes again, waiting for the next challenger.
The new champion also took advantage of this gap and hurriedly meditated to recover his Yuan Force.
Di Chen saw it in his eyes, staring at the No. 3 ring, his eyes bright.
