The first preliminaries match, regardless of results, ended with Jiang Chen narrowly defeating Xunzi. Although the two men were not competing purely on force, their fight was obviously more dangerous than a pure fight with force. It not only tests internal strength, but also focuses on wisdom. It is a comprehensive contest between wisdom and strength.
"The second game, or now is the real first sword show." Fusu looked around, looked at the Confucians, and asked with a smile: "I wonder who is willing to show up to show what he can do?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became quiet. Obviously, the previous battle had aroused everyone's fighting spirit.
Seeing Fusu turn to look at him, among the three heroes of Qi and Lu, Zhang Liang's eyes moved and his brain began to calculate quickly:
"The empire is well prepared this time, and there are many candidates who can fight, but in Little Sage Manor, only two senior brothers and I can fight. Gongsun Linglong failed in the previous battle, and Fusu will not use her again. Chu Nan Gong is already old. Gao, you have helped me many times, so you don’t have to worry. Zhao Gao is the leader of the net, and his cultivation is said to be unfathomable. However, as the order of Zhongche Mansion, he is a powerful person in the empire, and there is a Six Sword Slave present, so he will definitely not appear. So it is most likely that they will appear this time!"
His mind fell for a moment, and Zhang Liang almost subconsciously turned his gaze to Shengqi and Liujiannu behind Zhao Gao. His eyes flickered, and there was a vague calculation hidden in them:
"Sheng Qi fought against Wei Zhuang and was not at a disadvantage. Their strength was close to that of Gui Gu Shuangjian. The Six Sword Slaves were highly regarded by Zhao Gao and each held a famous sword. Each one of them was a famous swordsman before joining the net. And Tianzong Xiaomeng has always been hidden. She has been practicing in seclusion for a long time, but she came here at Fusu's invitation, so she will not sit back and watch. What's more, she fell into a disadvantage in the fight with Jiang Chen, and her attack will be even more violent this time! As for Jiang Chen, since this person has already After taking action, I will never do it again. The Red Queen has the power of the Demon God of War. She is good at large-scale wars, and the lethality is too huge. I am afraid she will not take action easily in this situation. From this point of view, the best way is Just take the initiative to choose your opponent!”
The sparks of wisdom flickered, and all the thoughts were completed in a flash. Zhang Liang's plan was not easy. Although it had not reached its peak state, it could not be underestimated. At that moment, he stood up. Come, walk to the field, and say in a gentle voice: "Confucian Zhang Liang, please give me some advice!"
"Huh?" After a deep groan, Chu Nan Gong couldn't help but think to himself: "In this competition, the situation is obviously unfavorable to Confucianism, Zifang, I wonder how you are going to deal with it?"
Jiang Chen saw the situation of both of them in his eyes and couldn't help but sneer: "Sure enough, is Zhang Liang the real candidate for the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book in the eyes of this old guy Chu Nan Gong? What a pity, now the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book has been exposed. Let’s see how you complete the handover.”
In the field, Zhang Liang faced Fusu and said respectfully: "Before the sword competition, I have a presumptuous request. I hope you will agree to it!"
"But it doesn't matter?" Of course Fusu would not refuse. He came to Xiaoshengxian Manor this time, and it was clear that he just wanted to exert pressure, but wanted to conquer Confucianism by paying equal attention to kindness and power. Therefore, in the face of Zhang Liang, the third boss of Little Sage Village, was naturally very patient.
"As people say, if you meet an ancient sword, you will see a gentleman." As Zhang Liang spoke, he turned to look at the Six Sword Slaves and said with a smile: "That's why Zifang wants to compete with these brothers who are in charge of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue. consult."
Fusu immediately turned his head and looked over, frowned and said, "Six Sword Slaves? Do you want to challenge them?"
"What do you think?" Zhao Gao then asked. They are all smart people, so they naturally understand Zhang Liang's intentions. When they are at a disadvantage, it is wise to take the initiative to choose an opponent.
The six people looked at each other, and immediately a god of chaos stepped forward and came to the opposite side of Zhang Liang. Without saying a word, he pulled out his sword and said proudly: "Let's do it!"
Zhang Liang shook his head and responded slowly: "Since the purpose of this sword competition is to use swords to discuss Tao, Master, I naturally want to ask for advice." After a pause, he raised his sword and smiled. He introduced: "The sword I have is named Lingxu. It is made of green leather and is completely natural. It is inlaid with 18 North Sea jade blood red hearts. The sword body is beautifully repaired and the whole body is dazzling and cannot be looked at. Thanks to the famous Prime Minister of Chu State. Shifeng Huzi's comment: 'The empty valley is facing the wind, and the elusive world is in the sky'. Ranked tenth in the sword manual."
"Wow, Mr. Zhang San's sword is really powerful. It's so suitable for him to use this sword!" Gongsun Linglong looked at it and couldn't help but smile with admiration on his face.
"Ranked tenth, it's amazing, let's do it!" A trace of anger flashed in Luan Shen's eyes. He said that he really couldn't stand Zhang Liang's style. He just competed with swords, but it was so long-winded. If they were the only ones present, If there were two people, he would have struck them with one sword! It's a pity that he can't do this with everyone watching, especially with a master of the Holy Realm like Jiang Chen sitting in charge. Even if he doesn't want to, he can only follow the rules of the sword competition.
Rules are really annoying sometimes, but you have to follow them. If you don't have enough power, challenging the rules is the same as asking for death.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Liang still acted tepidly and said calmly with a bit of a smile: "Brother Luan Shen, since we are discussing swords, can you also introduce your sword?"
"What?" Hearing this, Luan Shen became even more angry, but there were still masters like Zhao Gao, Young Master Fusu and even Jiang Chen here, so he couldn't be too presumptuous, so he responded in a perfunctory manner: " This sword is called ‘Ranshen’, there’s nothing to introduce, so let’s do it!”
"No." Zhang Liang said: "I just wanted to ask the King of Yue for advice on the Eight Swords, but the famous sword in Brother Luan Shen's hand is the only one among the six of you that does not belong to the Eight Swords. If it were not for extraordinary strength and great If we have a good background, how can we be among them together?”
Unable to bear it anymore, Luan Shen suddenly stabbed out with his sword, pointing directly at Zhang Liang's throat: "Stop talking nonsense, you can only talk, but can't you do it?"
"It's natural to use your hands. The sword is like a gentleman's. The victory or defeat is small, and the discussion is true. If you use your hands indiscriminately, wouldn't you become a wild man? It also violates the principles of sword discussion set by the master. Seeing that the opponent's sword tip had pierced his throat less than an inch before, Zhang Liang remained unmoved and spoke, his tone calm and calm: "If you don't care about the truth and only decide the winner or loser, I can give in now." "Having said this, he paused slightly and turned to look at Fusu: "I wonder what you want, Master?"
"What a man who doesn't fight hard and just talks about the Tao." Fusu couldn't help but praise: "Brother Zifang is so eloquent. Could it be that you know a lot about this ancient sword of chaos gods?"
Zhang Liang said: "This sword has an extraordinary origin, and it has a long story..."
"Then you can keep the story short?" Jiang Chen said calmly: "Young Master is busy with everything and cherishes time like gold. How can I have extra time to talk about ancient swords with you here?"
"Yes." Regarding Jiang Chen's words, Zhang Liang naturally did not dare to disobey him, and he introduced eloquently: "There is a saying in the Analects of Confucius, the founder of Confucianism: The Master does not talk about strange power and confuses the gods. This sword is mentioned in it, and its original meaning refers to cultivation. A person who governs a country should follow the laws of heaven and earth, pay attention to human affairs and people's livelihood, and should not talk about weird or divine things. This sword was originally cast by Gou Jian, the king of Yue, and he sacrificed a white horse and a white bull to the god Kunwu. After it was cast, it was indeed It can cut iron like mud, carry wind and thunder, and is extremely powerful. The king of Yue loves it. However, the next year, Gou Jian, the sword of Wu and Yue, was defeated. This sword also fell into the hands of the king of Wu. The meaning is ominous, so I changed my name to Luan Shen, found another famous master, and cast the Eight Swords again. Therefore, although Luan Shen is a famous weapon of the King of Yue, it is not included in the Eight Swords."
"Wow, Mr. Zhang San is so knowledgeable and talented!" Gongsun Linglong held up the beauty mask half-covered, with a look of admiration on her face as she spoke.
The words were in his ears, like a bell from a bell, and they meant something. Fusu couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that this sword has such an origin. Fusu has been taught."
But I heard Luan Shen Wen said angrily: "Are you done with the sword debate? Can you take action?"
"No." Zhang Liang responded with a smile, and when he spoke again, he said an astonishing statement: "I just asked you for instructions, young master, and I want to ask the brothers who are in charge of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue, referring to... ..Six of you!”
