In the main hall of the National Scholars Hall, Chen Zong put his sword into its sheath and stood in the center, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.
"Good swordsmanship."
"It looks simple, but it actually implies mystery. It is indeed a remarkable sword technique."
"Chen Guoshi's swordsmanship is indeed very good. If I'm not mistaken, Chen Guoshi has already mastered the mystery of the unity of body and sword." Zhang Tianyun said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Chen Zong nodded.
Suddenly, there were bursts of exclamations.
It is one thing to hear that it is one thing, but it is another thing for Chen Zong to admit it personally, and the shock it brings is even stronger.
The combination of body and sword, a superb martial arts realm that makes it difficult for many people to see it for a lifetime.
Yu Wenran's complexion was gloomy, as if he had been poked at a sore spot, and Yu Wenxing's complexion was not very good-looking, because although his combat power was very strong, he still hadn't realized the unity of body and force.
If they knew that Chen Zong had realized the truth, they would be shocked.
"Chen Zong, do you dare to compare with me?" Yu Wenxing got up and said to Chen Zong, his eyebrows raised, and his tone was sharp.
"Yuwen punishes the national scholar, you have been a national scholar for three years, and your combat power has reached the peak of the five-star level. If you do this, you will be suspected of overwhelming others." Xiao Mingli said with a smile.
After seeing Chen Zong's swordsmanship attainments and confirming that Chen Zong really mastered the unity of body and sword, Xiao Mingli made up his mind to build a good relationship with Chen Zong.
"Xiao Mingli Guoshi, I didn't say that I want to fight directly with Chen Zong. It's always okay to compare it with the thorny forest." Yu Wenxing smiled coldly, and his eyes fell on Chen Zong's face with strong provocation: " Dare or not, just say it directly.”
"A dense forest of thorns, then try it." Chen Zong smiled slightly upon hearing this.
Even if Yuwen Xing wanted to fight him, Chen Zong would not refuse.
No matter what trick you play, I will take it.
"Okay, I'm a little bold." Yuwen Xingsheng hurriedly said as if afraid of Chen Zong's repentance: "Zhang Guoshi, let's go now."
"Then let's go." Zhang Tianyun got up.
Everyone also got up one after another, very interested.
The Jungle of Thorns is actually not a unique training place of the National Scholars Hall. Of course, only the National Scholars Hall has this name. Similar training places in other royal families have different names and different contents, but the secrets are similar.
The Thorn Forest is a forest, 100 meters wide and 3,000 meters long, full of thorny thorn trees.
The Burst Thorn Tree is a very peculiar tree, which has the hardness of a tree and the flexibility of a vine. It is a combination of the two, so the appearance of the Burst Thorn Tree is also like a combination of the two.
Green-brown thigh-thick branches broke out from the ground, protruding several meters high like an arch bridge, and broke through the ground again more than ten meters away. There were many, many vine-like branches, long and short, thick and thin. A range of 100 meters wide and 3 kilometers long.
The high ones can reach ten meters, and the low ones are close to the ground. Every branch of every thorn tree has needles. The length and thickness of the needles are not consistent. It's like a little finger.
Seen from a distance, the density is astonishing, making one's scalp numb, like a group of boa constrictors covered with barbs.
"Chen Zong Guoshi or Yuwen Xing Guoshi, which one of you will break through the thorny jungle first." Zhang Tianyun asked.
"Zhang Guoshi and so on." Yu Wenxing said immediately, his eyes fell on Chen Zong's face: "Chen Zong and Chen Guoshi, since there is a competition, there must be winners and losers. It doesn't matter if you win or lose."
"Yuwen punishes the national scholars, enough is enough." Xiao Mingli's brows were cold and serious, the smile on his face disappeared, and his tone was a bit harsh.
"Dare you?" Yu Wenxing ignored Xiao Mingli, and stared at Chen Zong provocatively.
"How to gamble?" Chen Zong asked calmly.
"We are both national scholars, so let's bet on something simpler." Yuwen Xing said with a smile: "You have a fake spiritual weapon, right? We will bet on the fake spiritual weapon. If you lose, your fake spiritual weapon will belong to me, and I will lose." Yes, I will also give you a fake spirit weapon."
When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically.
He also said that the bet is simpler, using a fake spiritual weapon as a bet, is this easy
Nothing simple, the stakes are too high.
"Since you are going to give me a fake spirit weapon, I will accept it." Chen Zong smiled with great confidence.
Now that Chen Zong agreed, it's hard for others to say anything, but some will secretly worry about Chen Zong.
"Chen Zong, Yuwen Xing became a national scholar three years ago, and he is very familiar with the thorny forest, but you are a newcomer, and you don't have an advantage, which is not good for you." Shi Huanyue said directly.
"Trust me." Chen Zong's tone was flat, but with the power to make people feel at ease, people would unconsciously believe his words.
"Yu Wenxing has a pair of fake spiritual weapon shoes, which are very good." Xiao Mingli smiled at Chen Zong.
"I heard that Yuwen Xing's physical skills are good at subtleties." Su Xiaoshui also came over and said.
Three completely different beauties stood beside them, surrounded by the fragrant wind, which stunned Chen Zong and others. At the same time, their complexions changed one after another, filled with jealousy. Fat Yang Qifeng flashed a flash of surprise and envy, and then quietly stepped back a few minutes. Take a few steps to distance yourself from Chen Zong, so as not to be killed by someone's eyes.
Yu Wenxing secretly hated him, he is a normal person, of course he also likes beautiful women, especially those who are talented, potential and have status.
"I'll let you know what despair is." Yuwen Xing was secretly ruthless, and then smiled coldly: "Chen Zong and Chen Guoshi, this is your first attempt to break through the thorny jungle, so I will break through first, take a look, and get familiar with it." , so as not to say that I took advantage of you."
"Please go ahead." Chen Zong didn't refuse, he had never been through the thorny forest, and he didn't know what it looked like, so Yuwen Xing had to break through first and let him have a look, it would be best.
"Look carefully." Yu Wenxing snorted coldly, turned around and strode towards the dense thorny forest hundreds of meters away. On one side, someone put the water leak in place and started timing. Without stopping, he stepped into the area of the dense thorny forest. ,Speed up.
It rushed out like a gust of wind, rose from the ground, and after crossing a thorn tree, it suddenly accelerated, moving forward like a bolt of lightning, passing over ten meters.
According to this speed, three thousand meters is actually nothing, and the sooner it will be crossed.
Not long after, Yuwen Xing rushed over a distance of more than 100 meters without anything happening.
"The last time Yuwen Xingguo entered the thorny jungle, he didn't touch the explosive needle until the thorny tree was attacked after a thousand meters. I don't know if he will make progress this time." Someone said.
"Should be able to."
Chen Zong didn't speak, but stared at Yuwen Xing, while paying attention to the movement of the thorn tree.
It is not that complicated when you enter the thorny forest at the beginning, but the deeper you go, the more complicated it becomes, and the more difficult it is to move forward.
About five hundred meters away, Chen Zong keenly discovered that Yuwen Xing's body development had changed.
At the beginning, he focused on speed and only pursued pure speed. Of course, Chen Zong could also see that it was because Yu Wenxing was familiar with the thorny forest and his own body skills were very good, so he was able to move at a pure speed safely and soundly. Over five hundred meters.
But after 500 meters, the dense forest of thorns becomes more and more complicated, with up, down, left, and right, and you will touch it if you are not careful. Simple speed is no longer enough, and skill changes are needed.
Chen Zong's gaze could catch the subtle changes in Yuwen Xing's body skills. Although it was only a slight change, it suddenly raised the mystery of Yu Wenxing's body skills to an obvious level. Burst needles weaved between the branches of the thorn tree.
The intersection of the tree trunks is very narrow, even a child would have difficulty passing through, and would be scratched all over by the thorns, but Yuwen Xing passed through safely, very lightly and quickly.
"The agility practiced by Yuwen Xing is called Piercing the Clouds and Luefeng. It is an incomplete and top-notch agility at the prefecture level. Its advantage lies in its subtle skills, which are varied." Xiao Mingli stood aside and said softly. Yuwen Xing, who became a national scholar two years ago, is more familiar with it: "Piercing the clouds and sweeping the wind is very suitable for breaking through the thorny forest."
The implication is that this is not good for Chen Zong.
Chen Zong nodded, Xiao Mingli had been paying attention to Chen Zong's expression, and found that Chen Zong did not show the slightest worry, but instead had an inexplicable look on his face, which was a kind of self-confidence that originated from the depths of the soul, and a flash of beauty appeared in his beautiful eyes. splendor.
Confident and serious people always have a unique charm, especially outstanding talents.
Opposites attract, and the better you are, the stronger the attraction.
After performing the Cloud Piercing Movement, Yuwen Xing's speed did not decrease, but the subtle changes greatly improved the flexibility of the movement, walking through the complex explosive needles and thorn trees.
Soon, Yuwen Xing crossed 1,000 meters, breaking the previous record.
"Xiao Guoshi, someone should have left a record on the thorn forest." Chen Zong asked suddenly.
"Yes." Xiao Mingli was slightly surprised, and then smiled lightly: "Chen Guoshi wants to challenge the record?"
"No, I'm just curious and want to know more." Chen Zong said with a smile.
"The records left by the thorny forest in the National Scholars Hall were left by the mighty Marquis eighteen years ago." Xiao Mingli brushed a strand of hair behind his ear with the white little finger of his left hand, feeling indescribable. Roumei: "From the beginning to the end, it took a total of sixty-three breaths, and it was only after 1,500 meters that the explosive needle was touched by the thorn tree to trigger the attack, and I was hit five times in the end."
Xiao Mingli's voice wasn't loud, but it wasn't low either. Everyone was a man with sharp eyes and ears, so they could hear clearly.
Perhaps for those who have never been through the thorny forest, this sounds just amazing, but they can't tell where it is, and it is not direct enough, but those who have been through the thorny forest know very well that it is not powerful, but amazing. fear.
No one can break the record set by today's Mighty Marquis fifteen years ago.
"What was Marquis Mighty Wu's cultivation fifteen years ago?" Chen Zong asked rhetorically, his attention was different from others.
"Practice strength, six-star mid-term combat power." Xiao Mingli laughed.
Chen Zong gasped.
surprise
Yes, very surprised.
Fifteen years ago, he practiced at the Jinjing level and had a six-star mid-term combat power. Fifteen years later, he was a mighty Marquis, a pseudo-transcendent strongman.
In just fifteen years, he first broke through to reach the real martial arts realm, and then advanced by leaps and bounds to become a pseudo-transcendent realm powerhouse. This speed is really astonishing, and Chen Zong couldn't help being surprised.
