Wen Xi hurriedly stretched out his umbrella to block his head. The Ni Lin Sword hit the Jiu Tian Umbrella, leaving a white sword mark. Then Zhou Zheng pulled his sword back suddenly, and then raised it upwards, directly knocking the Jiu Tian Umbrella in Wen Xi's hand away.
"You deliberately lured me here because you wanted to use the dragon whisker needles on the Nine Heavens Umbrella, right?" Zhou Zheng tapped the top of the Nine Heavens Umbrella with the sword in his hand, knocking the needles out directly. "I wrote a book when I was young, and the Nine Heavens Umbrella is a weapon in my book. Wen Lu, the craftsman of your Qianji Academy, made three Nine Heavens Umbrellas based on my novel."
"Hahahaha, Mr. Zhou Zheng, long time no see." A man wearing a child's mask landed beside Bai Jile's sedan chair.
"Wen Xie?" Zhou Zheng sneered, "How dare you come here?"
"I know you and Wen Lu are close friends. He has been dead for so long. I think you should go and accompany him." Wen Lu pointed his foot and swept his hand lightly, throwing out a long stick and hitting Zhou Zheng directly.
"Fire stick!" Zhou Zheng met his target with his sword, angrily saying, "How dare you use a fire stick!"
"You call it a fire stick, but its original name should be the Dragon Subduing Pestle!" Wen Xie shifted his body, and the long stick in his hand collided with the Ni Lin sword, causing Wen Xie to take three steps back.
On the other side, Li Wai swung the ruler back and hit Bai Jile again. But Bai Jile ignored him and just looked at Li Yanqi in front of him and the old book in Li Yanqi's hand.
"If you want to fight with our host, you have to fight with my sword first." A long sword with a crane-head-shaped hilt knocked back Li Wai's ruler. A young man in white stood in front of Bai Jile, his mouth slightly raised, "I don't think you are qualified."
"Little boy, you need to be taught a lesson with my ruler." Li Wai snorted coldly, swung his sword, and directly wrapped up Bai He's scroll. Then he pulled it back and actually pulled the sword directly from Bai He's hand.
"What!" Bai He was startled and quickly leaped forward, trying to take the sword back. Li Wai gently shook the sword in his hand and stepped back.
"Bai He, don't be careless! Every gentleman in the academy is capable of conquering the world." A light shout rang out from the air. Li tilted his head and saw a dragon-shaped sword energy falling down and hitting directly on his head. He dodged to the side, and the sword energy smashed a big hole on the spot. Then there was a flash of sword light, and the crane-head sword flew out from the dust and mist and fell directly into Bai He's hand.
The dust cleared, and Bai Long put away his sword and bowed his head, saying respectfully: "I am Bai Long from Fu Sheng Zuimeng Tower, and I am honored to meet you four gentlemen."
Li Wai narrowed his eyes and said, "You are Bai Long. I heard that Fifth Junior Brother fought with you for a whole day and a whole night but there was no winner."
"The Five Gentlemen's swordsmanship is extremely powerful. Bailong admires them." Bailong nodded.
"I am higher in rank than him in the academy, and I am more capable than him. You are on par with him, so you are no match for me." Li Wai smiled and patted the ruler in his hand, "I think you need some training too."
"It is our honor to receive a sword from the four gentlemen." Bai Long thrust a sword at Li Wai.
Li Wai turned his head to avoid it, and tapped the sword with the ruler in his hand: "My ruler is called Three Kneels, which means you must respect your teachers. Only by kneeling three times with one step can you achieve the great way."
"Brother, don't waste time talking to him. Let's go together and kill him directly." Bai He rushed forward with a sword and joined forces with Bai Long and Li Wai to fight.
"You are not as good as your brother. You should kneel more." Li Wai stretched out a ruler and tapped Bai He on the head lightly. Then he dodged sideways and avoided Bai Long's sword. Although he was fighting against the two deputy masters of Fusheng Zuimeng Tower alone, Li Wai seemed to be at ease and very calm.
On the other side, Zhou Zheng was fighting against Wen Xie, the head of Qianji Academy, and Wen Xi, the deputy head, at the same time. It was also very easy. Wen Xie's body already had several sword marks, and Wen Xi, who had lost the Nine Heavens Umbrella, was beaten without any ability to fight back.
"Immeasurable body?" Zhou Zheng looked at the sword scar but the man was moving without any hindrance, and frowned slightly, "After so many years, Master Wen still doesn't dare to test people with his true body?"
"Don't be anxious, five gentlemen. Once my true form appears, you will be dead." Wen Xie sneered.
After sitting on the sedan chair, everyone started talking about it.
"The gentleman of the academy is indeed worthy of his reputation. He can actually fight against two vice-chairmen at the same time by himself and still have the upper hand."
"We can't get through these three steps. If the four of them are defeated, will we, the thousands of people, have to turn back?"
"And the Third Gentleman has not taken action yet. If he were to take action, would Lord Bai have to take action himself?"
Li Yanqi held the scroll in his hand, his expression calm and composed, but he was sweating profusely behind him.
Bai Jile smiled slightly and looked at Li Yanqi: "There is a formation within the formation, and the peach and plum trees are naturally attractive. The three gentlemen are indeed extraordinary."
Li Yanqi forced a smile and said, "Master Bai is extraordinary. You can actually see that."
Bai Jile yawned and covered his head with his hands, rather nonchalantly: "I come from a place you can't imagine, and I have seen many things that you can't imagine in the world. In my opinion, this move by the Three Gentlemen is just an ordinary move on the immortal chessboard, which is insignificant."
"You know a lot about formations, but you don't know how to play chess. Every move on the chessboard has a result. If any step is missing, the result will not be that." Li Yanqi picked up the scroll in his hand, "This book looks thick, but it only has three pages."
"Three pages of the heavenly book, one page for riding a dragon, two pages for ascending to heaven, and three pages for becoming a mortal." Bai Jile lowered his voice, "Back then, the Confucian Sage once opened these three pages of the heavenly book on the shore of the South China Sea. That was the first defeat of Yingzhou."
"You really know it." Li Yanqi took a deep breath and turned to the first page.
With a clang, the sword in Bai He's hand slipped out of his hand again. Li Wai hit him three times on the chest with a ruler, causing him to spit blood and retreat repeatedly. Bai Long tried to block it with his sword, but Li Wai's ruler also left a bloody mark on his hand.
"Wen Xi!" Wen Xie shouted from the other side, and Wen Xi hurriedly covered his injured abdomen and retreated repeatedly. The female-faced man, the ghost-faced man, and two other masters of Qianji Academy appeared with chains in their hands and attacked Zhou Zheng.
"Sure, it's really eye-opening!" Bai Jile laughed instead of getting angry, "Then I would like to ask the three gentlemen, do you dare to turn to the second page?"
Li Yanqi tried hard to suppress the inner energy surging in his chest and said in a deep voice, "Why do we need to open the second page?"
"Don't you need it?" Bai Jile let out a breath lightly, and then Li Yanqi took a step back. The pages of the ancient scroll in his hand turned slightly, but he did not turn the page in the end.
"Senior Brother!" Li turned his head and said.
"Don't worry about me." Li Yanqi took another step forward.
"It is said that when the disciples of the academy are conferred the title of gentleman, they will say their life motto, which is 'Jun Youyun'. I am curious, what your Jun Youyun is, the third gentleman?" Bai Jile asked slowly.
Li Yanqi gritted his teeth and said, "No retreat."
"Not retreating?"
“No retreat!”
