Xingyun Liushui

"Chu Xiake, long time no see."

After the ceremony, Chu Xingyun was having dinner with Murong, when suddenly four wealthy young men came to the table, wearing gold and silver, very proud.

"It was my honor to be defeated by the defending champion back then."

Murong looked up, oh, this is exactly the four great families who were beaten by Chu Xingyun back then: Cui Shi and Huang Yan.Murong was very upset to see their yin and yang looks, so he taunted him: "You made money when you were defeated back then, now you want to lose to him?" Murong shook his head as he spoke, "It's too difficult, you have to fight To the third round, it's too difficult."

"you!"

"That's all, Mr. Shi, it belongs to the Murong family."

The man surnamed Shi sat down resentfully, and sneered at the Chu knight: "The Chollima also has its blunders, and the fight for flowers will be very long. Chu knight, let's just look at the present. I hope I can make gestures with you."

Chu Xingyun nodded in agreement, and Murong sneered at the side: "I think Mr. Shi, you should think of a way first, let's talk after this first round."

The Qinggong Fourth Family ignored him and walked away.

Murong scoffed at them. In martial arts competitions, winning or losing is a common thing. I am not as skilled as others. I don't practice well. Instead, I worry about it all day long and plan how to bring down those who beat me. Murong despises such people the most. Chu Xingyun said: "Why do you let them? Just go to death and see what they can do?"

Chu Xingyun shook his head, today is different from the past, these people have grudges against him, Gu Sanshao specially brought them news, just to make him unhappy, and I don’t know what kind of moths these people will make.

Just as he was thinking, he found that Xie Xiaohun was gone.Relying on his own soul, this man went through the walls and houses, followed the four young masters, eavesdropped on their conversations, and had no choice but to come back until the soul-leading thread could no longer be stretched.

Chu Xingyun asked him what he had inquired about, and Xie Liushui shook his head: "Nothing, they chatted after they went out, and didn't mention a word about the Flower Fighting Club."

After eating, they went back to the Jiuqu Covered Bridge. The sun was heading west. Thousands of contestants were standing. Murong sighed: "When will this thing be worn out! It's not over yet!" !"

"It's early." Someone beside him replied, "The lottery grouping will be divided into the evening, and the third group is only now obtained."

Murong really wanted to faint immediately, but Chu Xingyun felt better. As the defending champion, he showed his face and then ran away. Poor Murong finally stood until the evening before he came to draw lots: at noon tomorrow, the tenth group, Third track.After returning, he hit Chu Xingyun hard, and ate a huge meal.

The next day, the first round of the Flower Fighting Club officially started.

In a forest of apricot blossoms, three thousand pinks landed on the ground. The rules of the competition are very simple. Thousands of people are divided into ten groups, and each group has 100 tracks. Judge time.Each group will compete three times, and finally the ranking will be based on the average score of the three times, and the top [-] will be shortlisted for the second round.

It stands to reason that Chu Xingyun's defending champion should not be used, but in order to listen to information, find out the opponent in time in the first round, know yourself and the enemy and win a hundred battles, Chu Xingyun disguised himself, mixed into the audience area, and released Xie Xiaohun from time to time to let him float Take a closer look at the track.

Two thousand contestants filed in. There was nothing to watch in the first round, and the audience lacked interest. Xie Liushui observed everything carefully and looked for mistakes. However, the competition rules of the Douhua Festival are very strict, and this year seems to be particularly strict. , Many of his methods cannot be implemented, and all contestants have to go through three doors before entering the arena.

The first body search gate, in previous years, it was only allowed to bring any equipment into the arena. This year, you must hand over all your belongings, except clothes and pants. Xie Liushui wants to use hidden weapons, illusions, and drugging, but now it is very difficult. .It is also difficult to store items somewhere in the competition venue. Every time the competition is completed, a special person will check it. Even if it can be hidden without being found, it is extremely difficult to retrieve it under the watchful eyes of everyone during the competition.

The second medicine inspection gate is staffed by eighteen pharmacists from the Wulin who light cigarettes and identify medicines. No contestant is allowed to take any medicines before or during the match. Not at all. To retire.It will not work to rely on medicine to keep Chu Xingyun's internal strength for a while, or to prescribe medicine to the opponent in advance.

The last breath test is also the most troublesome one for Xie Liushui. Everyone's true qi level is different, and the attributes are also different. After this test, all contestants' true qi will be recorded in the book. If there is a change in his true energy, it proves that he has cheated, and he will be dealt with strictly according to martial arts rules.

Regardless of whether he can take the first place or not, Chu Xingyun has lost all his martial arts skills, and he can't even get through this door. If you just find someone whose true energy is yang and let him breathe, he can last for a while, but no one in the martial arts world is better than Chu Xingyun Ten yangs, there is nowhere to borrow the true qi of the ten yangs.In this way, it will definitely reveal that the level of true energy does not match, and there is a more fatal problem. The breath that has been passed may dissipate at any time. A dead end.

Xie Liushui was watching while floating, and Chu Xingyun, who was sitting in the stands, was also observing. There are countless real flow lights on both sides of Xinghualin's track. Immediately blast and sound the alarm.

Chu Xingyun thought in his heart, Xie Liushui's true energy is not compatible with him, once Xie Xiaohun is possessed to fight instead, the true flow light will explode, and the matter will be revealed, or, directly let Xie Liushui possess him and then pass the test The air door, this can ensure the consistency of true qi before and after, but in this way, the qi tested will not be Shiyang, so how can he prove himself that he is Chu Xingyun himself?This infuriating energy is a gift from God, and there is absolutely no reason why it is yang for a while, and it is not yang for a while. Since he can't prove himself that it is Chu Xingyun who won the championship last year, the ten-yang infuriating energy he submitted is a fraud. Or a dead end.

He had to find a way to pass through the gas check valve with ten yang qi, and at the same time keep the real flow lights beside the track from bursting.

There was no suspense in the first round of the competition, it was just a comparison of speed to eliminate the majority of guys who joined in the fun.The ranking list was released in the evening, Chu Xingyun and Xie Liushui mixed in the crowd, carefully looking at the names on the list.

Number one on the list: Xiao Yanbing.

"Oh, it's this little beauty..."

Before the word "beauty" could be finished, the man suddenly hung his neck, hanging in the air as if hanged.

"What is beautiful?"

Xiao Yan sat on the wall coldly, his fingers moved slightly, and Wu Yingsi strangled the man tightly. He smiled and watched the man struggling to the point of death, his limbs twitching.

The people watching the list retreated with a bang and hid far away. Xiao Yanbing, a man with a male and a female face, hated people talking about his appearance the most in his life, and if he heard it, he would kill him.

In order not to appear abrupt, Chu Xingyun retreated with the crowd, and suddenly heard a voice from the wall: "Amitabha."

The red lotus locks on his ankles suddenly tightened, and Xiao Yanbing stumbled and fell from the wall.

Xiao Yanbing could not stop cursing, but his voice became farther and farther away, probably being pulled away by the monk Ji Yuan.Chu Xingyun glanced at the list, Xiao Yanbing showed his sharpness and sat at the top, while Ji Yuan kept a low profile and ranked No.70.

Chu Xingyun also saw a lot of familiar names. In order to embroider the painting of brocade mountains and rivers, Zhan Lian also came this year on behalf of the Wang family, ranking No.12.Murong is No.17. Chu Xingyun talked with Murong yesterday. Murong's family is well-known in the Jianghu. There is no need to deliberately hide their strength, but there is no need to work hard in the first round, just be sloppy.

At this time, Xie Liushui pointed to the middle position on the list: name, Gu Yizhi.

"This is the alias of Gu Yanting, the third youngest of the Gu family. There are only fifty of them, and they just happen to be right in the middle."

People in the game don't like to show their faces, they shoot the top bird, and people laugh at the bottom of the crane. Only when they are not up and down and just mediocre, they are the least noticeable.Next to "Gu Yizhi" is a person named "Hai Wenyan".

Chu Xingyun said: "Is this person brought by Gu Yanting?" This person had a match with Murong, and Murong had nothing to worry about, so Chu Xingyun noticed this person.

Xie Liushui nodded: "He basically stayed with Gu Yanting, and he probably came to clear up obstacles for his family's third young master."

The two looked back slowly, and finally saw the hundredth place: Xiao Hong.

Xie Liushui frowned and commented: "This person...is a bit strange, he seems to be hiding too much strength."

"Didn't you see his skills last time when he was underground at Li's house? This person should...be a little worse than Zhanlian."

Xie Liushui didn't speak, and said after a while: "This person is different from the last time we fought. He now has a state...that he has advanced in martial arts but refuses to show it."

At that time, there was Gu Yanting in that match, and Chu Xingyun had no time to pay attention to Xiao Hong, but he didn't understand why Xiao Hong deliberately fell one. Since he wanted to hide his clumsiness, why didn't he hide in the middle and lower reaches like Ji Yuan and Gu Yanting, and took a big one? Finally, it is also very eye-catching.

After reading all of them, Chu Xingyun found that there were no four great Qinggong families on this list, so he looked back again, and Xie Liushui patted him: "Don't look for it, I've seen it, there really isn't one, Cui Shi Huangyan, not a single one."

Chu Xingyun frowned tightly. These people will never give up. Although their martial arts are not good, they are not so good that they can't even make it to the first round. Could it be...

"Okay, okay, don't think about it anymore." Xie Liushui said, "It's useless to think about bald heads. They will do whatever they want. Soldiers come to cover the water and soil. Let's go and go to the Jiuqu Bridge. Today's The most important thing has not yet come.”

For the general public, the first round of the competition is just a matter of watching and going. They still stay here because they want to watch today's main event: the Tianxuan team.

In the second round of the competition, the 100 finalists will face off in pairs, and the so-called Tianxuan formation means that the names of these [-] people will be signed, and Grandmaster Zhang will set up the formation, and use the method of Tianxuan to determine the order of the groups to show fairness .Therefore, luck is also a part of strength. If you directly face a strong opponent, you can only be eliminated miserably.Chu Xingyun thought in his heart, if he can make good use of this round, he can let the strong and the strong kill each other, and the weak and the weak fight each other, so that at least one weak opponent can be saved, and a strong opponent can be eradicated. After three rounds, he can take advantage of it.

As night falls, the sunset glow is red, like cinnabar splashed with indigo blue.Zhang Zongshi stood on the top of the red pavilion, motionless, suddenly exercised his skills, and danced his sleeves, a mighty aura, descending to the center of the lake, soaring to the sky, everyone was shocked and changed color, and then, a hundred red sticks , floating in mid-air, and showed them to one hundred finalists one by one.

"All shortlisted masters, check to see if the signature is your own name. If there is something wrong, please report it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be treated as an impostor regardless of the deadline."

Xie Liushui floated on the surface of the lake, walked around the hundred signs, and looked at them one by one.

Hundreds of people are silent.

"Since the name is correct, the old man will start fighting!"

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of water jets arose on the surface of the lake, each holding a red sign on the top of the column, and then the water jets approached each other, fought and twisted, and finally twisted into one strand, domineering on the lake, setting off a sky-reaching waterspout. The red check rolled and stirred in it.

Chu Xingyun watched quietly, and suddenly, Xie Liushui took a handful of apricot blossoms and flew into the formation.Chu Xingyun didn't stop him, and the soul thread was involved in the selection formation, Xie Liushui was engulfed in the waterspout, his figure could not be seen clearly, and he was indistinctly disturbed inside.Chu Xingyun moved his fingers slightly, trying to pull him back, but then thought, maybe this guy has other plans, so he waited and watched.

When the battle stopped, Zhang Zongshi stopped his breath and stood still, and the two pairs of hundreds of sticks were floating in the air. Chu Xingyun looked over and was slightly stunned:

Xiao Yanbing is against Ji Yuan, Zhan Lian is against Xiao Hong, Gu Yizhi is against Hai Wenyan, almost all powerful enemies are fighting each other, not only that, this lottery is full of strong and strong killing each other, weak and weak fighting each other, guaranteeing high martial arts The plenary meeting will encounter difficult enemies and be eliminated to the greatest extent, while those with poor martial arts will fight against those with comparable skills and be retained to the greatest extent.

Chu Xingyun stared at Xie Liushui floating on the water, and felt that it was incredible. To do this kind of thing, first of all, he had to remember the names of 100 people, and second, he had to be able to compare the names with the skills these people showed in the first round. One-to-one correspondence, in addition to this, he also has to sneak into the Tianxuan Formation. The waterspout in the formation has hundreds of water jets moving rapidly and irregularly, and each water jet has a red label with his name on it. The name corresponding to the water column, and remember the moving position of each water column at the same time. When the Tianxuan Formation is about to end, move forward and change the bag as quickly as possible. Finally, the formation stops and the sign is displayed, and the overall situation is determined.

The [-] finalists were looking at the order of the lottery. Many experts looked embarrassed. They did not expect that the first round of the second round would be so bumpy, but the Tianxuan team is fair and just, and it has always been unquestionable. Xie Liushui looked at them with blue faces. For a while, Bai was very funny: "If I do this, your chances of winning will be much greater. Let's just watch them fight in the nest tomorrow."

"You...do you have a good memory?" Chu Xingyun asked.To be able to achieve this level, the memory is not only good, it is...almost a miracle.

Xie mischievously blinked at him, and said with a smile, "What's the point of such a trick?"
