The annual martial arts conference officially begins today.

On an empty grass field in the west of the city, someone built a platform many years ago, but fortunately, it is being renovated every year, and the scale is also huge.

In the past, there were no houses next to the site. Mei Shuli had taken a fancy to this area when he first came to Huaicheng, and bought and built several restaurants and hotels next to it. Gradually, this area became prosperous.

Of course, not everyone can live in the hostel next to the arena, and the price is naturally reasonable.

The home team is Wu Ze, the head of the Ancient Mirror School. Wu Ze is very prestigious in Huaicheng, not only because he is one of the veterans of the martial arts conference, but also because he has an easy-going personality and makes many friends. He is over 50 years old this year and his body is still good. Tough and convincing.

"Heroes from all walks of life, it's the annual martial arts conference again. I, Mr. Wu, wish everyone can win the championship in three days." Wu Ze's strong voice lingered in the ears of everyone in the audience, and then he said something Something that needs to be explained every year.

The powerful people of various gangs sat in the small building built behind the stage, and too many people stood in front of the stage. Although the sun was scorching, there were still many people surrounded by darkness.

Back then, Ji Yu used to go to the small building to enjoy the shade, but when his master was gone, he also retired, so he had no seat.

Of course, if he said, I, Ji Yu, came to watch the competition, of course he was welcomed into the building to watch the competition. After all, no one can offend a doctor with excellent medical skills.

Ji Yu looked at Mei Shuao who was standing next to him, "Shu Li asked you to sit over there, why don't you go?"

"It's the first time you come here, of course you have to feel it among the crowd." Mei Shuao excitedly stroked his sword with his hand and said.

It was also Ji Yu's first time watching a game in a crowd, and he didn't want others to recognize him.

"Let's be spectators today, and I'll be on stage tomorrow, and Junqin will have to come tomorrow." Mei Shuao didn't look at Ji Yu, but stared seriously at the first person on stage. "Actually, there is nothing to see today, and the real masters will come tomorrow."

Ji Yu didn't reply, and had already thrown himself into the competition arena.

The competition lasts for three days, and anyone can challenge on stage in the first two days.On the afternoon of the last day, the competition between the last ringleader and the last remaining person from the previous two days was the highlight of the conference.

In the past, Ji Yu and the master watched from beginning to end, even though both master and apprentice were not good at martial arts.

"It's a pity that this is a good mace." Mei Shuao looked at an unknown man on the stage with some disdain, who was arrogantly playing his double mace.

The man reported his family name, "My surname is Zhou and my name is Zhong. Everyone calls me Zhou Heizi."

The weight of an iron mace can only be wielded by someone as strong as Zhou Zhong. Looking at Zhou Zhong's dark appearance, the audience burst into laughter.

"Yunyang sent Situ Shuo to ask senior Zhou Heizi for advice." A man in white flew down from the small attic on the second floor, raised his chin, and stood in front of Zhou Zhong with his bare hands.

There was a sigh of relief under the stage, some because of Situ Shuo's arrogance, and some because they didn't understand why the Yunyang faction came to power so early this year.

The Yunyang faction is the most upright martial arts sect headed by Lingjing of Beiling, and the last ring master was Lingjing's closed disciple Song Zhiyuan.

Situ Shuo's master is one of Yunyang's eight elders, Xuan Qing's sect. If Zhou Heizi is mentioned, some people in the audience know about it, but no one has seen Situ Shuo in front of him.

Zhou Heizi looked at the boy who was at most seventeen or eighteen years old in front of him and said, "Okay, in the end, this little white-faced kid shouldn't say that I bully you."

"That's a lot of nonsense." Situ Shuo raised his right foot, turned his body, and slashed at Zhou Zhong's lower body.

"Come here if you are a little sure of winning, you will naturally compete tomorrow, observe your opponents, and recharge your batteries." Ji Yu looked at the inseparable two people fighting on the stage, and said to Mei Shuao with his head tilted, "But Those who know they can’t win, like Zhou Zhong, are very wise to go up at the beginning. The iron mace is like lightly whipped by him, and his martial arts are good, at least he can fight a few more rounds on stage to enjoy himself.”

Mei Shuao was still a little disdainful, "He will lose this game."

Ji Yu stopped talking.

Some people are born to be the favored ones of heaven. They don’t need to support their families. They are cultivated by an excellent master, accompanied by exquisite weapons when they grow up, and they spend a lot of time helping the world and the poor. Difficult ordinary people.

Zhou Zhong on the stage was already overwhelmed, and finally Situ Shuo took Zhou Zhong's double mace and pointed it at Zhou Zhong's neck.

"Little baby, I admit defeat." Zhou Zhong smiled cheerfully, "Sure enough, this kind of martial arts competition is still the world of young people. Next year, I, Zhou Heizi, will not just join in the fun, old man."

"The maces given to you are extremely heavy. I wanted to borrow them, but my hands were numb." Situ Shuo threw the maces in his hands at Zhou Zhong.

There was laughter in the audience, and Zhou Zhong laughed too, took the iron mace and stepped off the stage.

Situ Shuo didn't care about the laughter below, and stood with his hands behind his back, waiting for the next person to come on stage.

At the beginning, he was a powerful character. The small fish and shrimps in the audience didn't have the chance to join in the fun this year, and the next one was a quite famous character.

Situ Shuo will deal with another one. After all, he is only a 17-year-old child, and his physical strength is not enough to defeat Chen Yuan, the youngest son of Chen Tuozhu who is the third to take the stage.

Only then did he leap to the attic on the second floor in disgrace, "Master, I've tried my best."

"Well, have a good rest."

The person who answered was Ling Jing, and if someone knew that Ling Jing also came to see the competition, they would definitely be amazed.

It is said that there are no restrictions on this martial arts conference, but the real peerless masters will not participate. Back then, Yan Yigu won the championship for three consecutive years, and then the martial arts conference set a rule that the defending title can only be defended for three years at most, which made Yan Yigu Yigu resigned, so that he could have the opportunity to leave to the rising star.

"Why did the leader want me to go up first?" Situ Shuo was a little dissatisfied.

"That's where your ability lies. Watch the game carefully. You have enough time to study now." Ling Jing looked at Situ Shuo who was on the side.

Situ Shuo just shut up and watched the contest quietly.

Holding a long halberd on the stage, Chen Yuan, who looks like a gentleman, is already famous in Huaicheng.

When it comes to Chen Tuozhu of Yingyuhui, Huaicheng people have to mention his youngest son, Chen Yuan.

Yingyuhui is located in Huaicheng, and the chief rudder is also from Huaicheng. Speaking of which, it's okay for the youngest son who has always been favored to raise a child prostitute. However, he has a high vision, and he just fell in love with the only one of the medical sage Dong Xian. Apprentice Ji Yu.

That is, three years ago, Chen Yuan was only 17 years old. He secretly kissed Ji Yu and publicized that he would be responsible for Ji Yu, and he would not marry unless he was the one.Ji Yu didn't pay much attention to it, but made Dong Xian so angry that he never went to Chen's house again.

In the end, it was Chen Duozhu who personally came to the door to make amends, locked up his weak and sickly young son at home and beat him up severely.

"Boy Chen, where's your doctor Ji?" Someone shouted from under the stage.

The place fell silent for an instant, followed by bursts of laughter.

Speaking of three years ago, Chen Yuan was also ignorant. Ji Yu often went to treat Chen Yuan. Dong Xian is even more well-behaved in front of him, but he always talks about my doctor Ji when he meets everyone, which has become a joke in Huaicheng.

Chen Yuan also laughed a few times, "Everyone save face for me, it's the first time I'm here to participate in the martial arts conference, and I need the seniors to be merciful."

Some people in the audience lamented that the men's university has also changed eighteen times. This serious look is not like that silly boy who knows Ji Yu all day long.

Chen Yuan then said melancholy, "It's a pity that Ji Yuqingqing lives in seclusion alone, and I will look for him in a few years."

There was another burst of laughter under the stage, of course it is not known how true or false what Chen Yuan said.It's just that Ji Yu's leaving without saying goodbye made Chen Yuan look for him like crazy for a long time.

"Mei Shuao, please enlighten me, Mr. Chen." Before Ji Yu could react, Mei Shuao jumped onto the stage with his sword in hand.

The smile on the corner of Ji Yu's mouth froze. It was not a surprise to see Chen Yuan defeating Situ Shuo. Chen Yuan's martial arts were all mastered by Master Chen Duo.He actually likes Chen Yuan quite a lot, like having an extra ignorant younger brother.

But he didn't expect that Mei Shuao would be on the stage today, even if he didn't get injured in today's competition, he would still be weak, so it's hard to say what will happen tomorrow.

There was another commotion below.

"Hero Mei! It's Hero Mei!"

"This is the only son of Mei Tian, ​​the head of the Mei family, right?"

"Hey, it's worth it today, why is it so lively at the beginning?"

"Look at Mei Shuli too, the whole family is so handsome."

...

"I have heard about the great name of Hero Mei for a long time, it is really an honor for Chen Yuan to meet him today, and I would like to ask the hero Mei to be merciful." Chen Yuan saluted politely.

I don't know if it's because I stayed with Ji Yu for a long time, no matter how respectful others are to me, I don't care. Mei Shuao took off the sword cover and threw it on the table of Mei Shuli who was sitting on the first floor watching the match. Mei Shuli stared at him warningly. With Mei Shuao.

Mei Shuao looked at Chen Yuan with no expression on his sword.

"Show yourself." Seeing that Mei Shuao didn't reply, Chen Yuan swung his halberd twice, and ran towards Mei Shuao.

The shaft of the halberd that Chen Yuan used was not ordinary wood, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of, but it was definitely not light. The "Bu"-shaped gun head was tied with a red tassel, and it looked very beautiful when armed.

Ji Yu glanced at Mei Shuao when he saw Mei Shuao making a move, but didn't express anything, just quietly watched the contestants on the stage.

Chen Yuan guarded against Mei Shuao's move, followed his gaze, unexpectedly saw Ji Yu, his hand trembled suddenly, and the halberd almost flew out.During a martial arts competition, distraction is a big taboo. Chen Yuan hurriedly took a few steps back, shook his head, and concentrated on dealing with the opponent's moves.
