Chapter 150: Pick up the sword and kill the thief!

The Confucian sword of the heart attacks the heart with the heart.

It's upright and there is absolutely no room for concealment.

Gongyang Suwang, the lord of the palace under heaven, is brilliant and righteous. With such a sword, he is invincible in the world. Xu Huiyang also has a sincere heart for swordsmanship, a heart that is pure and spotless, like a polished and brilliant gem.

He once relied on his heart sword to defeat warriors who were at a higher level than him.

But at this moment he discovered that he was not the only one in the world who had such a heart. The opponent in front of him had a firm mind and was stronger than himself. There was no difference in the level of their hearts, but there was a difference between firmness and cowardice.

In an instant, Xu Huiyang, who was in the midst of a mental confrontation, found that the sword in his hand showed signs of breaking. He raised his hand and blocked the sword in his hand. The confrontation between the two swords was a collision of two people's mental states.

After all, he is a pure swordsman who has been loyal to the sword since childhood.

After ten years of fleeing, my heart is stronger when I see the sufferings of the world.

Xu Huiyang's sword broke.

He took the initiative to withdraw from the battle between mind and sword.

In the martial arts arena outside, it seemed that the fight lasted only a moment. People saw the little sword master retreat half a step, raised his left hand to cover his mouth and nose, and blood continued to flow down. Li Guanyi held the weapon while Xu Huiyang retreated.

The energy around Li Guanyi circulated rapidly.

The roar of the white tiger rose, and he suddenly leaped up holding the halberd, a move that abandoned all defense. The strength of this person, who had the best physique in the history of the world, exploded to the limit. He held the halberd with both hands and chopped it down fiercely.

Only domineering!

Pure force!

Pure courage!

Tu Shengyuan, a guest of Tianxia Diyi Lou, stood up suddenly, his eyes flickering: "Is this, golden muscles and jade bones, dragon tendons and tiger marrow?! Or is it the Buddhist's Glazed Vajra Body?! No wonder, no wonder..." He seemed to understand.

It takes more than ten years to temper a warrior's physique.

"Is it a body training?!"

But other people don’t have the vision of the best restaurant in the world.

Xu Huiyang was just shocked by the confrontation in this instant. His soul was injured, but he released his sword energy regardless of everything. The jade hairpin broke and his black hair flew. In an instant, pure power and sword energy burst into a fierce battle, and the air wave swept across.

Xu Huiyang supported the sword with both hands and looked at Li Guanyi with sharp eyes.

"you!"

Li Guanyi asked: "Are you loyal to the sword?"

He was silent for a moment, but still said calmly:
"But, the reason you used the sword of the mind is because you felt that it was difficult to defeat me with the sword in your hand, so you used the moves of the mind to take advantage of me, right?"

"You weren't desperate then."

"Are you using the Heart Sword as a trick, or do you think that the Heart Sword taught by King Gongyang Su is stronger than your own swordsmanship?"

Xu Huiyang's face gradually turned pale.

His internal energy exploded and Li Guanyi's physique became strong.

The two distanced themselves instantly.

Li Guanyi consumed a huge amount of energy, and his blood was surging. An ordinary person would not be able to withstand this level of force, which would lead to dizziness, arm pain, muscle tearing and other backlashes, and he might even die suddenly because of the force exceeding the limit.

But he did not have such a situation at all. Instead, his blood and energy were as strong as a dragon, and he became more and more courageous as the battle went on.

The dragon tendons and tiger marrow allow the power of each of his moves to reach the limit that a second-level warrior can theoretically unleash.

And make this outbreak in a continuous output.

The Glazed Physique can significantly reduce the damage done to him by the sword energy.

The Eternal Moon's Immortal Body can make his blood surge and heart beat at high speeds, reducing the pressure and damage to his internal organs to nothing. All the martial arts he has learned are not as exquisite as Xu Huiyang's swordsmanship, and are not sword skills that can attack the mind and kill the body.

But when combined, Li Guanyi seemed to be still in his peak state even though he had been fighting for a long time.

Xu Huiyang gasped.

Smoke and dust filled the air, and a young warrior in battle robes held a halberd at an angle.

Walk forward slowly.

Raise your hand and wave your sleeves.

The smoke and dust cleared, and although there were traces of sword energy remaining on his body, he was still calm and unhurried. As he walked slowly forward, the edge of his halberd pressed against the ground, making a murderous sound.

Every step seemed to be stepping on Xu Huiyang's heart.

The feeling of oppression is so strong that even people around can feel it.

Xu Huiyang closed his eyes and thought about what Li Guanyi said.

He did. He subconsciously felt that the battle could be resolved with the sword of his heart, and that King Gongyang Su's sword of his heart was stronger. Thinking of the scene he had just seen in his mind, the young sword saint opened his eyes, sighed, raised his sword, and then let go of his hand.

"Clothes."

The sword used for the performance fell to the ground.

boom! ! !
The entire stage collapsed in an instant.

The bluestone collapsed and shattered, turning into large pieces of broken stone. This huge martial arts arena, which had just been smashed to pieces by heavy halberds and torn apart by sword energy, was actually completely destroyed. Everyone looked at Li Guanyi, a warrior of the second level, and thought he could have such destructive power?
and also--

What did Xu Huiyang say?
Not losing.

But——【服】? !

Xu Huiyang ignored the noisy voices around him. He looked at Li Guanyi and said, "I admire your path, but——"

The young swordsman was silent, then smiled and said, "I won't give up mine either."

He turned around and waved at Li Guanyi.

Walked off the stage.

Li Guanyi exhaled, and the violently surging blood began to slowly calm down. He turned his hand back and inserted the weapon heavily here. This top-quality 500-forged weapon was completely shattered by his action and turned into powder.

Li Guanyi sensed the murderous intent.

Not just one, one came from Yuwen Lie, and one came from——

Chen Yuyun.

The expression on Chen Yuyun's face twitched. He stared at Li Guanyi over there, clenched his fists, and a flame of jealousy burned in his heart. He was unwilling to accept it, and he also understood that as the finale, the momentum of that battle would definitely not be better than this one.

The struggle between the Sword Master's offspring, the Crown Prince, and his maternal relatives.

King Gongyang Su's unique sword of the heart.

The young swordsman admitted defeat.

He used the second level to attack the third level, smashing the entire martial arts field into pieces and breaking all the weapons. Such momentum could be heard from the applause and cheers of the onlookers around. Chen Yuyun clenched his fists, and his fist bones creaked.

why?
Why do you have to go against me!

Why do you have to steal my limelight?!

Chen Yuyun knew in his heart that this was the opponent's strength, and that the opponent's fight was indeed powerful. However, knowing this rationally was of no use, and instead it intensified the nameless jealousy in his heart.

He knew he shouldn't be jealous.

But the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to restrain myself. It was like I was blocking a fire, but it only made the nameless anger in my heart burn more and more fiercely.

He held the jade plate in his hand, furious: "Aren't you a treasure?"

"Why?! Why hasn't it been used once in the past ten years!"

"Such poor white jade!"

"It's just trash, what a filthy treasure!"

He held the jade plate tightly, wishing he could smash it to pieces on the ground, then step on the broken pieces and crush them to pieces. After thinking about this destructive idea in his heart, he finally felt much better.

Then he let go of the jade plate, his expression remaining the same as before.

He applauded with a warm smile on his face:
"It's really amazing."

"To show off my military power to the Chen Kingdom."

Li Guanyi did not respond to him. He walked past Chen Yuyun as if he did not see him, then stretched out his hand and collided fists with Zhou Liuying and Ye Buyi, causing Chen Yuyun's gentle smile to freeze slightly, and the malice in his heart surged thickly.

Yuwen Lie looked at Li Guanyi's back, and the murderous intent in his heart surged again.

People in the martial arts world watch the one-on-one fight, but only a famous general like him knows what kind of place is the final destination for a physique like Li Guanyi.

The battlefield. Only the battlefield.

Such a person, wearing heavy armor and riding an exotic beast, is only at the fourth level.

As long as you are not targeted and surrounded by experts, you can fight back and forth in the midst of thousands of troops.

Killing is very energy-consuming, and it is impossible for the warriors of the Third Heaven to fight tirelessly. Being injured and fighting will lead to a decline in their condition.

This way, they will not get tired, can always maintain peak physical strength and blood, and are good at using long-handled heavy weapons. When they are placed on the battlefield, they represent the morale of the army.

Keep your own morale high, and destroy the opponent's morale.

He deserves to be killed.

But when Yuwen Lie had this thought, he saw the white-haired old man laughing over there. The old man from the Xue family raised his teacup to him with a smile, but his eyes were like a tiger, locking onto the two people behind Yuwen Lie.

So Yuwen Lie slowly withdrew his gaze.

“Hahaha, awesome, boss!” Zhou Liuying, who was wrapped like a dumpling, laughed and waved his arms, which looked like tied-up chicken legs. He said, “I thought our Jinwu Guards would be wiped out this time. I didn’t expect that you, boss, would be the last one standing.”

"If I meet Yu Wenhua or Ge Shuyin."

"Revenge our brothers!"

Ye Buyi nodded and said, "Congratulations."

Someone had already come to quickly repair the fighting arena and were preparing for the final battle of the day. Just as everyone could have guessed, even though Chen Yuyun was the last to appear, and even though he was very good at using both a sword and a knife, he won beautifully.

People around were still talking about the first battle of the day, which was very intense and passionate.

Tu Shengyuan, a guest at Tianxia Diyi Lou, was cutting off the bamboo slips with a carving knife.

Put it in your mouth, chew the bamboo into pieces and swallow it.

While thinking.

The warriors around were stunned.

Tu Shengyuan rolled his eyes. After all, he was a well-trained martial artist. He had honed his mouth and internal organs, so eating a mere bamboo slip was not a problem at all.

It's just a bit stuck in my teeth.

"Li Guanyi defeated Xu Huiyang, but he only became famous through this battle, so he can be included in the list."

"Of course, the first time ranking won't be too high, huh."

"What name should we give him..."

After the last battle, Emperor Chen invited the winners of the four battles to come forward. After some high-sounding speeches, he gave them rewards, which were top-grade weapons and top-grade elixirs, which were quite good.

This weapon of sharp level can be used by any warrior of the fourth level.

The musician's mechanical hand was also made of this material that can make the internal energy flow.

Li Guanyi chose a halberd.

The whole body is light silver, and feels as delicate as stars. The edge of the halberd is cold and named [Frost]. The most important part of the weapon is the halberd tip, which is made of cold iron. During the battle, tearing the opponent's wound can make the opponent's qi and blood flow poorly, causing cold poison.

And quite heavy.

Possessing such special abilities means that one has some special properties of a treasure.

Geshu Yin took a saber and Yuwenhua took a sword at random.

Chen Yuyun took a crossbow.

The crossbow is equipped with three crossbow arrows, which seem to have the power of thunder. They can burst out with extremely fast speed and penetration, and can also paralyze the opponent's body. It is considered a good weapon.

After everyone received their rewards, Emperor Chen asked Prime Minister Tan Tai Xian Ming to shake the lottery to decide the ranking of the semi-finalists. Tan Tai Xian Ming looked at Li Guan Yi, an old man who was older than Chen Cheng Bi and Zu Wen Yuan, and said gently: "Really, the young are to be feared."

He shook the lottery and got the result.

Just like Pojun’s speculation.

"The first match is Chen Yuyun, the imperial guard of Dachen, corresponding to Guoyu Culture."

"The second match is between Li Guanyi, the Jinwu Guard of Dachen, and Geshu Yin, the Turkic people."

The Seventh Prince stood up and laughed: "Ahahaha, Geshu, this Jinwu Guard is your great enemy. You must fight with all your might against him and don't bring shame to our reputation as grassland warriors."

"Yes."

Geshu Yin looked at Li Guanyi, his eyes burning like fire.

Li Guanyi returned the greeting.

The day's duel ended just like that. All those who knew Li Guanyi came to congratulate him. Before the eldest lady followed Concubine Xue back to the palace, she came over specially and praised Li Guanyi's martial arts seriously: "It's already very impressive."

"We made it to the top four, which is not a loss, not a loss."

Li Guanyi smiled, "Didn't you want me to win, Miss?"

"what?"

Xue Shuangtao blinked and said, "Yes, that's what I mean..."

"But the Turkish Iron Pagoda Captain seems to be very powerful, anyway."

"Be safe. Winning or not is not important. There is still a long way to go."

The girl laughed. She stood on tiptoe, stretched out her hand, and gently patted Li Guanyi's messy hair. "You are already so much taller than me now."

Then he noticed that there were traces of sword energy tearing on Li Guanyi's arm.

The young lady thought for a moment, took off the hairband on her forehead, and said:
"Stretch out your hand."

Li Guanyi stretched out his hand.

The girl tied her hairband to the tear on the arm of the boy's battle robe. The red hairband fluttered slightly on the black battle robe. Xue Shuangtao nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay."

"I'm going back!" Concubine Xue sent someone to call her, so the eldest lady waved her hand, turned around and ran over. The girl's skirt fluttered slightly in the sun, and her black hair fell behind her, the pearls and jade jingled, and the ends of her hair swayed like the wind.

Li Guanyi stretched out his hand to touch the hairband tied on his left arm, and his lips subconsciously raised.

Then, as if he sensed the gaze, he raised the Frost Halberd slightly.

The halberd blocked the young lady's back and gaze.

Li Guanyi saw a pair of resentful and violent eyes reflected on the sharp edge of the halberd. He raised his head slowly and saw Chen Yuyun's eyes. He walked over with a gentle expression on his face, and whispered with his lips opening and closing, "You must beat Ge Shuyin, Li Guanyi."

"In the finals, I will defeat you in front of everyone in the world!"

"Then, I will ask my father... His Majesty, in front of all the nations, to grant me and the eldest daughter of the Xue family a marriage. You should come and have a drink at our banquet."

Li Guanyi looked at him, a smile reappeared on his lips, and he said softly:
"What are you barking at?"

The expression on Chen Yuyun's face froze.

He seemed to discover that the young man was not someone who was good-tempered and easy to bully.

Turning around, the young Jinwu Guard carrying the halberd, laughed and left with his friends. Only Chen Yuyun had murderous intent in his eyes. He pinched the jade plate with his thumb, almost crushing it, and his finger bones were turning white.

Li Guanyi had a party with his friends today and drank. Then Ye Buyi reminded him to prepare well for the fight the next day, and then he left. When he went back, it started to drizzle. Pojun and the seven kings attended the banquet, and the Sixth Grandmaster was also present as a hero in the world.

Li Guanyi took a shower and looked at the dark sky outside.

Looking at the piece of paper given by Pojun, which stated the place where Chen Yuyun lived, his habits, and the walking paths of the night watchmen around him, a blank time was directly given through calculation.

There is only one moment of opportunity.

Li Guan stretched out his hand, and the red dragon's internal energy turned into fire, burning all the information and maps given by Pojun.

Then he changed into black clothes.

The young man exhaled and drew out the Autumn Water Sword. This sword could kill people without leaving any trace. By infusing internal energy into it, it could change the shape of the sword and send Situ Deqing's internal energy into Chen Yuyun's body.

He thought about it and took out a dark golden face mask.

The boy gently stroked the visor with his palm.

He put the visor on his face, his breath disappeared instantly, and he walked into the rain.

The figure gradually disappeared in the wind and rain.

The moon was dark and the wind was strong, with heavy rain coming down from the sky.

Kill thieves at night!
