Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 53 Big Shuffle

"Brother Li, you are very capable."

As soon as Li Rui stepped down from the stage, Wu Tu came up to him.

He grinned and laughed loudly.

"I'm old and useless."

Li Rui chuckled and stood back among the crowd as if nothing had happened.

Wu Tu's expression turned strange.

Just based on that performance, can you still call him old?!

Although the victory was easy, any discerning person could see that Sha Jinliang was not weak at all, but Li Rui was stronger.

The assessment continues.

The fight between the hall master and the deacon was much more intense than that between ordinary disciples. On the ring, swords clashed and each move was exquisite, making the spectators' blood boil.

The disciples off the field were howling as if they were injected with chicken blood.

The more he hit, the uglier Wu Tu's face became.

Because of the four leaders of the Dark Eight Sects who joined the Tiandi Alliance, he is the only one who has not yet taken the field, and the others have all lost. It has become a luxury for him to even be a deacon watching the scene.

Wu Tu didn't think he was much better than the other three.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been fighting openly and secretly in Qinghe's side door for so many years.

The difference in strength is only a hair's breadth.

In addition to the deacons, many hall masters were also challenged, with both wins and losses.

This time, the Qinghe branch can be said to have undergone a major reshuffle.

More than half of the hall masters and deacons have been replaced.

Tang Sheng stroked his mustache and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad."

He had anticipated this scene.

As Alliance Leader Ning's power has greatly increased, it will naturally attract experts to join him. It would be wrong if his men remained as they were.

The more intense the competition, the greater the motivation to practice martial arts and become stronger.

Only then will Tiandi Alliance develop better.

He was naturally happy to see it happen.

If the rankings in the competition remain almost unchanged, it means that this branch is stagnant, or someone is causing trouble, which is not a good sign.

At this moment, there was a sudden cry of surprise from the audience.

"That's Ge Hong. How come he came to our branch?"

"Hiss~ It really is Master Ge from the Iron Sword Martial Arts School."

Li Rui looked at the middle-aged man with a square face and a sturdy build standing on the stage.

"Ge Hong."

The name Ge Hong is very famous in the Qinghe martial arts circle.

There has always been a saying in Qinghe martial arts school that "Bear Fist, Eagle Sword, and Scimitar", which refers to the owners of the three most powerful martial arts schools in the city. Ge Hong is the Scimitar.

“Who will he challenge?”

Ge Hong is a well-known eighth-rank master, and a hall master can never satisfy his appetite.

So the one being challenged must be the deputy helmsman.

The leader of the Iron Sword Martial Arts School challenges the deputy leader, and this fight is going to be very interesting.

Zhao Wei clenched his fists and his heart tightened.

He had known for a long time that Ge Hong had come to the Tiandi Alliance. Although he was not afraid, he really did not want to meet Ge Hong in advance.

There is no false person under the great reputation.

Especially in the underworld, those who are famous basically have some real skills.

After the battle with Ge Hong, Zhao Wei had exhausted his physical strength too early, and he probably didn't have the energy left to fight for a higher ranking, and he might also miss out on the Huaqing Sect's spot.

Ge Hong looked at the four deputy helmsmen Zhao, Zhang, Zhou and Qian one by one.

Finally, he raised his hand and pointed at Deputy Captain Qian.

"Brother Qian, please."

Deputy helmsman Qian Cai secretly groaned, but since he was chosen, he had no choice but to go on stage and fight.

His expression was solemn.

It was different from the previous assessments, where even if he lost before, he would just change his ranking and would still be the deputy leader. But if he lost this time, he would lose his position as deputy leader.

Although he actually made a lot of preparations.

Qian Cai took a deep breath, clasped his fists and said, "Brother Ge, please teach me."

He was under great pressure when fighting against Ge Hong, who was quite famous in Qinghe.

He slowly drew out the sword from his waist, took a half step forward with his right foot, and held the long sword across his brow, making a neat starting posture. Ge Hong also drew out his knife.

His knife is very different.

The blade of the knife is thinner than a normal knife, like a willow leaf.

That's why he got the nickname "Lancet" in the world.

“Is this the famous lancet?”

Li Rui looked carefully.

As early as when he was a groom in the Zhu Mansion, he had heard of the name of the scimitar, but he never had the chance to see it with his own eyes.

The two men started fighting.

when!
With a crisp sound of metal colliding, Ge Hong and Qian Cai finally came into combat.

Ge Hong used a knife, but in his hand it was like a soft sword, flying around the money, making it impossible to defend against.

Just a few moves.

There were several cuts on Qiancai's clothes.

It is clear who has the better skills.

Qiancai's face was gloomy and he glanced at his tattered clothes.

His swordsmanship is not bad. If there is anything to blame, it is only because Ge Hong is too strong.

They fought for about ten more moves.

Just when everyone was enjoying the show, Qian Cai suddenly pulled back and said, "I lost."

"Deputy Captain Qian actually voluntarily admitted defeat. It's been less than 30 moves, right?"

“The Lancet really lives up to its reputation.”

The disciples below the stage were talking about it in a flurry.

On the stage, Ge Hong put away his sword, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you."

Qian Cai did not return to his seat, but walked off the stage on his own accord.

He is no longer the deputy helmsman.

At least not until the next competition.

Money is decisive.

As soon as he realized that he could not defeat Ge Hong, he immediately admitted defeat. Instead of continuing to waste his energy fighting with Ge Hong, it would be better to retain his strength to challenge others. This way, he could at least keep his position as deputy helmsman.

Having lost money, the other deputy helmsmen also looked solemn.

It is difficult for them to maintain their positions securely.

The fight became more intense.

Although there is no deputy helmsman for the time being, several deputy hall masters have been replaced.

period.

Wu Tu also came on stage. With the help of Li Rui's elixir, he has recovered to his peak level, and is even a little stronger.

After more than a hundred moves, he finally defeated his opponent.

The waist badge also increased from "18" to "17".

Even though it is only an increase of one place, its value is much higher than in previous years.

Wu Tu was already satisfied as long as he could keep his position.

"Brother Li, do you want to try again?"

Wu Tu glanced at Li Rui.

Li Rui has been challenged before, and according to the rules, he does not need to fight again.

Even though he was optimistic about Li Rui, he didn't think it was necessary for Li Rui to play.

As for the chief priest of Wenwu Hall that Zhang Yang promised.

前八
It might have been the case in the past, but nowadays, being the head of a civil and military hall is more than enough.

The helmsman and five eighth-rank masters already occupy six positions. The top eight is equivalent to the top two, which is extremely difficult, not to mention that the top two are now the master of the Wenwu Hall and the notorious swordsman Chang Qi.

They are not easy characters to get along with.

Li Rui smiled slightly: "Then go up and give it a try."

"!!"

Wu Tu's eyes widened. He didn't expect Li Rui to be about to go on stage. While he was speaking, Li Rui strode onto the stage.

He bowed to a scarred man and said, "Please."

The commotion here quickly attracted everyone's attention.

Just because the person Li Rui wanted to challenge had a number on his badge:

"11"!
