Ouyang Ming stood firmly, his eyes under the helmet were piercing, and his whole body was filled with strong fighting spirit.
The confrontation with Fang Kaiyou just did not last long, but it completely aroused the fighting cells in his body. At this time, both his body and mental state were in an extremely excited state.
However, just when he was about to let go of all restraints and have a real battle with the powerful peak spirit master, Lord Tian Sword suddenly intervened and cut off the fight abruptly.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Ouyang Ming took a deep breath to calm down the excited cells in his body little by little. For a true warrior, this is an extremely painful thing. However, Ouyang Ming suppressed the desire to fight in his heart without hesitation.
What he wants to do is to be a powerful cultivator, not a fighting weapon driven by fighting instinct.
Fang Kaiyou regained his composure earlier than Ouyang Ming. Before this battle, he didn't really take Ouyang Ming into his heart. As a peak spiritual person, he is also a generation of genius carefully cultivated by Wuzhi Peak, so he naturally has his own pride.
Then Ouyang Ming might have some expertise and be better than him. For example, refining weapons and elixirs of longevity were beyond his reach. But when it comes to combat effectiveness, he has absolute confidence.
How could a middle-level spiritual person who was famous for his forging be comparable to him in terms of combat effectiveness.
However, after the first battle, Ouyang Ming's performance completely subverted his understanding. Although he also knew that the reason why Ouyang Ming was able to display such a powerful power was related to the equipment on his body. However, let alone whether a set of equipment has the ability to cross-level challenges, just the trace of the great meaning revealed by Ouyang Ming during the final confrontation was enough to make him sway.
He actually had a vague hunch that if Ouyang Ming's current state was not an intermediate spiritual person, but a peak spiritual person of the same level as him, then the shot that was about to be thrust out would definitely not be something he could resist.
As a prodigy who has experienced hundreds of battles and hopes to reach the realm of the venerable Five Finger Peak, he actually feels like this, which is not much different from bowing his head and admitting defeat.
At this time, Fang Kaiyou looked at Ouyang Ming with extremely complicated eyes, which seemed to be full of faint unwillingness.
Lord Tiandao glanced at his disciple, but there was a hint of joy in his heart.
Since this apprentice started practicing martial arts, it has been almost a smooth journey. Because of his extraordinary talent and hard work, he stood out from countless people until he reached the peak spiritual realm today. However, a smooth journey of cultivation may not necessarily be a good thing for him.
Although the outcome of the battle with Ouyang Ming was not decided, it undoubtedly served as a wake-up call. If one day, Fang Kaiyou attacks the realm of the Venerable and succeeds by luck, then Ou Yangming may be the biggest contributor.
"Brother Tiandao, why did you interfere?" Venerable Yu Qi said with some dissatisfaction: "Their fight is not over yet."
A strange smile flashed across the faces of the old ape and the Venerable Ten Thousand Beasts, and they looked at the Venerable Heavenly Sword as if they were watching a show.
Naturally, they could also see the moral meaning contained in the ready-to-fire shot, but precisely because of this, they all had the mentality of watching a good show. Because they all knew that Ouyang Ming would never be in any danger before the spear was thrust out.
On the contrary, Lord Tiandao was afraid that Fang Kaiyou would be frightened by the Taoist intention in this shot, so he couldn't wait to intervene midway.
This is also the reason why caring leads to chaos. If it were someone else, Lord Tiandao would definitely be happy to see the results. It's too late for them to experience this Taoist spirit, so they can't care about the life and death of other people.
Lord Tiandao snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Yu, their competition this time is to test the equipment. Since it is not a battle of life and death, why continue?"
Venerable Yu Qi said with a half-smile: "Oh, so Brother Tiandao already knows a lot about Master Ou's equipment?"
Lord Tiandao said coldly: "Yes, I have seen it before and I know it well."
Venerable Yu Qi said without giving in at all: "So in Brother Tiandao's opinion, can Master Ou represent Danzhou in the battle?"
Lord Tiandao was slightly startled, and his brows suddenly wrinkled.
Master Ku Rong had always been silent, but at this moment he couldn't help but sigh softly and said: "This set of equipment is indeed very powerful, which shows Master Ou's true ability. But..." He paused and said: "For this I have been preparing for this weapon refining competition for decades."
"You?" Venerable Yu Qi was startled and shouted in disbelief.
Not only him, but also the old ape and the Venerable Ten Thousand Beasts had their eyes widened. No matter how they guessed in advance, they could not think of this answer.
Venerable Yu Qi said solemnly: "Master Kurong, I can understand your mood, but I'm afraid... there is something wrong with you going out to fight in person."
He said this very tactfully, but Lao Yuan did not have so many scruples and said directly: "Kurong, stop joking. If you can take action, we will naturally be happy to ask for it, but do you think Zhangzhou will agree?" "
Ouyang Ming's eyes also flashed with doubt, because as far as he knew, the weapon refining competition between Danzhou and Zhangzhou actually had restrictions.
That is, those who come out to compete must be spiritual practitioners, and there is only one chance at most in a person's life. In other words, once you participate this time, when the next competition comes, even if you are not a Venerable, you will automatically lose the qualification to participate.
Although he didn't know whether Master Kurong had participated on behalf of Danzhou before, the old man's cultivation was obviously not that of a spiritual person.
Master Kurong's skinny face showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "Don't get me wrong, how can I go to war?"
Venerable Yu Qi frowned slightly and said, "What does the master mean..."
"Haha, I accepted a closed disciple thirty years ago." Master Kurong said slowly: "Although this boy has no achievements in martial arts, he has considerable talent and attainments in blacksmithing. Hey, I've been in a bad state of mind these past few years, so I haven't given him much advice. However, he still manages to keep up with me and has never let me down."
Venerable Yu Qi and the old ape exchanged glances, both feeling slightly surprised.
Although Master Kurong said it simply, they all understood that the closed disciple should have inherited the mantle of Master Kurong's blacksmithing skills, so he showed such an expression when he mentioned this person.
However, the fact that Master Kurong could bring it up in such an almost proud tone shows the status of the closed disciple in his mind.
Lord Tiandao also nodded slightly and said: "Everyone, it's not that I deliberately embarrass Master Ou, but that my junior brother does have superhuman talent in blacksmithing." He paused and said: " In my opinion, since we have two blacksmithing geniuses in Danzhou, how about we let them meet and discuss this matter?"
Venerable Yu Qi and others exchanged glances with each other. None of them wanted to make a decision for Ou Yangming, so they turned their attention to him and waited for his rejection.
Because everyone understands that the so-called meeting is just a euphemism.
After the meeting, it should be a head-to-head forging competition.
Because both sides have strong backgrounds, this will definitely be a fair game. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.
Ouyang Ming's level of forging is obvious to all. However, after seeing the power of the suit, Master Kurong and Venerable Tiandao still refused to give up, which shows how much confidence they have in that person.
Now that Ouyang Ming is here, it would be gratifying if he wins, but what if he loses
Venerable Yu Qi and others are not willing to bear this responsibility.
However, Ouyang Ming's eyes were shining. After hearing the news, he didn't have the slightest fear, but was full of expectation. This feeling is no less than when he fought against Fang Kaiyou just now.
He is a cultivator, but he is also a blacksmith. If he has an opponent of comparable strength, his enthusiasm and potential can be stimulated.
Nodding heavily, Ouyang Ming said without hesitation: "Master Kurong, Venerable Heavenly Sword, I am willing to compete with that brother."
"Okay." Venerable Tiandao laughed and said, "Master Ou, you are so refreshing. No matter the outcome, I am willing to make you my friend."
"Bah! You think people are rare, and you make it sound like they are begging you." The old ape rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.
Lord Tian Sword's face alternated between red and white. If others had been so sarcastic, he would have turned away and refused to recognize them, or he would have just taken out the sword and chopped it off on the head.
But the old ape has a special status and a very high seniority. He can joke playfully with Master Kurong. No matter how violent he is, he cannot take the initiative to use a knife on such a person.
Venerable Yu Qi was amused in his heart, but he said: "Brother Tiandao, Master Ou has just been reunited with his relatives, so don't let him run around."
Venerable Tiandao breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "This is natural. I will go back now, pick up my junior brother, and meet Master Ou."
Ouyang Ming nodded slightly, feeling really impatient.
Venerable Tiandao was also impatient, or he was unwilling to stay with the old ape anymore. After explaining a few words, he immediately left with Fang Kaiyou and others.
However, for some reason, Master Kurong did not follow back to Wuzhi Peak, but stayed with a smile and had a very speculative conversation with the old ape. Moreover, no matter how provocative the old ape was, he would always smile and say nothing, as if nothing in the world could concern him anymore.
