Although Yu Qiu had no intention of haggling with Long Pengpeng, since Long Pengpeng had provoked so many people and Long Yi let go, Yu Qiu had no choice but to float down from Long Yi's side, ready to show his hands ruthlessly.
Naturally, the contest couldn't be held in Xuanyang Hall, so Long Pengpeng and Yu Qiu walked out quickly, walked to the square, and marked out a place.
Long Yi was still sitting in the hall as an old god, and had no intention of watching the battle at all, as if he had decided that there was no suspense in the outcome.
As for the other people who came to watch the ceremony, after looking at each other for a while, most of them also went out to watch the two people who were already standing in the square. As soon as everyone arrived, they saw Yu Qiu bent down before starting the competition, and pried off a floor tile from the ground.
Yu Qiu held the floor tiles in his hand, looked at Long Pengpeng and smiled, "I don't have a weapon, so I can use this instead, is that okay?"
"Glamorous!" Long Pengpeng snorted coldly.
In the initial trial, Long Pengpeng was beaten unconscious by Gao Conghan at the beginning of the second level, so he had never seen Yu Qiu holding a brick in his hand. Unlike some onlookers, when they saw Yu Qiu holding a brick, they immediately made an uproar, and then couldn't wait to popularize science around them.
"Start?" Yu Qiu asked with a smile.
"Start!" Before Long Pengpeng could finish his sentence, he was already holding his top-grade flying sword with radiant brilliance, shouting and slashing at Yu Qiu.
Yu Qiu raised the brick, and the sound of the impact screamed harshly, and immediately blocked the sword firmly. Obviously, Yu Qiu had used his soul power to draw enough lines on the brick when preparing just now, and the brick was already strong enough.
Bricks meet swords? When Long Pengpeng saw this scene for the first time, he was taken aback at first, but soon realized that he shouted again, and continued to attack with sword moves. Yu Qiu held the brick in his hand, and it gradually became a bit difficult to catch it, but he still blocked every sword firmly.
The fight with one brick and one sword was so intense that the onlookers who had been popularized about the legend of the brick were already excited, and couldn't help but look forward to whether the original miracle could be reproduced.
But Yu Qiu now is different from before.
Yu Qiu has already built three layers of foundation, and his soul power and aura have improved a lot. The things that almost exhausted his soul power at the beginning are now done with ease. Of course, the opponent was stronger than before, and Yu Qiu didn't think he could win easily with only one brick. However, when Yu Qiu used bricks in the past, he was trying not to rely on talismans. Now he uses bricks to deceive people. There is no need to stick to this brick like before.
To put it simply... While Yu Qiu kept waving the bricks with his right hand, his left hand had already quietly reached into the storage bag, secretly took out a few talismans, and silently hid them in his left sleeve.
With a sound of "clang", the sharp sword of the bricks struck again, and Yu Qiu brushed against Long Pengpeng sideways, and at the same time, his left hand secretly...
Long Pengpeng felt a sudden weight in his body, and his movements suddenly slowed down. At the same time, there was a sound of wind in his ears, and Yu Qiu's brick slammed towards his face. But Long Pengpeng is not a three-legged cat after all. In this case, at such a critical moment, he was able to raise his sword in time to block it, and it was about to block it.
But at this moment, Yu Qiu's left hand secretly...
At the last moment, Long Pengpeng staggered suddenly. He was stunned, he couldn't believe it, he couldn't help but look down at his feet, he finally found the small lump of soil that just happened to stumble on his heel, and he said "despicable" in his throat , but ultimately did not have time to say.
"Snapped!"
Yu Qiu hit Long Pengpeng hard on the forehead with that brick! Long Pengpeng was immediately bleeding out and fainted on the spot.
After a short period of silence, the crowd of onlookers boiled up: once again belonged to the legend of Brick!
Yu Qiu kept the bricks by his side, smiled and signaled to the crowd, accepting their enthusiastic cheers. Although he knew that the cheers were probably not for him, but for that brick...
Then Yu Qiu returned triumphantly and continued to serve tea to Long Yi who had been waiting impatiently, finally ending this troublesome apprentice acceptance ceremony.
After that day, Yu Qiu's popularity soared suddenly, and the odds of the handicap had already clung to Gao Conghan and Xu Hong. In addition, Yu Qiu called a new title in Xuanyang Sect.
"Brick madman...hahahahaha!" Gao Conghan slapped the table with laughter in Yuqiu's cave, "Who thought of it! It's a genius!"
The competition in the sect was about to start, and Zhao Lian, who was herding sheep, finally looked like a master, called all the disciples under his name for a training camp, and recruited Xu Hong and Xiao Chunmian back. Gao Conghan saw that this was a good opportunity to be alone with Yu Qiu, even though he was broken in love, he was persevering, so he came to visit him. As a result, the first sentence after entering the door made Yu Qiu's face darken.
"You've been very busy recently." Yu Qiu said indifferently, "I heard that you are pulling Senior Brother Xu to compete every day?"
"Who told that guy to always refuse to admit defeat?" Gao Conghan clicked his tongue softly.
Yu Qiu nodded, and asked again, "Have you considered what you said last time?"
As soon as these words came out, Gao Conghan's face suddenly became not so pretty. After a long silence, Gao Conghan said, "Not yet."
"Actually, the risk is not that great." Yu Qiu persuaded, "What's more, it's not that I want you to take this risk, it's really... this matter can't be solved by us."
"How do you know?" Gao Conghan asked back.
Yu Qiu asked, "Do you still remember your treasure... that rag with ancient characters written on it?"
This refers to the piece of rag that Gao Conghan showed Yu Qiu when he first wanted to ask Yu Qiu for help. After the system identification, it should be the one with a treasure map.
Gao Conghan was taken aback.
After that day, Yu Qiu didn't mention it all the time, he thought Yu Qiu had forgotten about it.
"Have you talked to Senior Brother Xu?" Yu Qiu asked.
"No." Gao Conghan shook his head. This is one of the few secrets he has kept in front of Xu Hong successfully.
Yu Qiu took out the jade slips and inspired them with aura to reflect the contents of the jade slips on the table. Gao Conghan was dizzy when he saw it. Let's talk about why Yu Qiu didn't mention this all the time. It turned out that Yu Qiu had already recorded the contents of that piece of cloth in the jade slip!
"Actually, I've been studying this thing for the past few years." Yu Qiu stroked his chin, "I can see something a little bit."
"What?" Gao Conghan asked hurriedly. This piece of cloth has been in his hands for so many years, he has naturally seen something, and is eager to verify with Yu Qiu's discovery.
"Here..." Yu Qiu clicked on a corner of a group of complicated patterns, "It should be Tianzhu Mountain."
Gao Conghan nodded, "Yes, although the drawing seems to be a mess, but after sorting it out, it should be a map."
"And here..." Yu Qiu clicked on a row of those ancient characters, "It should mean... If you want to pass through the gate, you have to prepare six talismans."
Gao Conghan looked at him in surprise. In order to understand this piece of cloth, he tried every means to find information about the ancient texts, and finally managed to understand a little bit. The reason why Yu Qiu can recognize the ancient characters is naturally because of the memory of his previous life.
"Sun, moon, water, fire, birth, death, one for each." Yu Qiu pointed to a few characters in it, "This is the easiest to understand, the dry sky penetrating sun talisman. The rest are nothing The clues are completely incomprehensible, and may have been lost. But according to the Qiantian Penetrating Sun Talisman, it should be an attempt to deduce a substitute."
Gao Conghan was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled, "I decided to look for you at the beginning, and I really found the right one. Fate did not deceive me."
"You said that unreliable divination result that only I can save you? Come on, don't mention it." Yu Qiu shook his head, put the jade slip away, and the image on the desktop disappeared immediately, "Anyway, I think What I'm talking about is... do you think the things drawn on this picture have something to do with your magic skills?"
"There must be." Gao Conghan said, "This is also what is in that package."
"However, even getting started requires a talisman from the Condensation Yuan Period." Yu Qiu said, "Are you planning to wait until the Yuan Condensation Period?"
Gao Conghan was silent.
"The Condensation Stage may not be enough. If you ask the master of the golden elixir in the sect to make a move, there may be a glimmer of hope." Yu Qiu said again, "Or are you planning to wait for yourself to cultivate the golden elixir? I advise you not to do this .As your cultivation has improved, so will the cultivation of the monsters in your body. The further you go on this road, the greater the risk to you. No one knows what will happen to you if you just cultivate to the Golden Core. What is it like?"
In fact, Yu Qiu knew.
Gao Conghan now lowered his head, facing Yu Qiu, very close. Through the gap in the hair covering the right half of the face, Yu Qiu could vaguely see a plum blossom-shaped birthmark on Gao Conghan's temple.
If Gao Conghan cultivated to the golden core stage like this, he would become a shadow demon at some point.
"Anyway, you'd better think about it again..." Thinking of Shadow Demon, Yu Qiu felt inexplicably cold, leaned back quickly, and looked away from Gao Conghan's temples, "Or you can give the piece of cloth to Zongmen ? In exchange, the Zongmen may not treat you too badly."
Gao Conghan sighed, nodded, and left in silence again.
This matter came to an end again because of Gao Conghan's long-term consideration.
As the day of the Grand Competition in the sect draws closer, the rankings of the prominent figures in the Xuanyang Sect have also undergone some changes. Xu Honggao, who had ridden the dust before, was weak from the cold, and the same was true of Yu Qiu, who used a brick to ignite the eyeballs. On the contrary, several old masters in the sect slowly chased after him, and finally only Xu Hong The status and accumulation of more than ten years are still in the first echelon, and Gao Conghan and Yu Qiu are gradually falling behind.
It is worth mentioning that more and more people are optimistic about Xiao Chunmian, but there is still a gap between Xiao Chunmian's popularity and the first echelon, only comparable to Yu Qiuping.
Finally, as the bell in the Xuanyang Sect rang eighteen times in a row, the once-in-ten-year competition in the sect finally officially started.
The disciples of Condensation Yuan, Foundation Establishment, and Qi Refining are each in one group. There are three groups in total, and the competition starts separately.
In the first round, all registered disciples in each group had a comparison test. Yu Qiu smiled slightly, picked up a brick and stepped onto the competition stage.
After half a stick of incense, he smiled and walked off the competition stage carrying a brick.
As the matches passed one after another, the name of Brick Maniac gradually became famous in the entire Xuanyang Sect.
