I'm already invincible, and you're telling me I just logged in?
Chapter 47 Wan Gui's Helper
In a world without airplanes or high-speed trains, it would take Xu Yan fifteen days to travel back and forth.
It was more than a month later when the matter fully escalated.
In recent days, Xu Yan has been busy running around and making arrangements, and has hardly had time to practice martial arts.
Seeing that the martial arts contest for marriage had been effective, Shen Shuangning temporarily put aside her intention to investigate Feng Jing, planning to settle the matter later.
Shangyuan County.
The area outside the Jinglong Martial Arts School.
"I didn't expect it to be so effective."
Standing in the crowd, Xu Yan couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, people still like to join in the fun.
After the notice for the marriage proposal was spread, not only did martial artists from Shangyuan County come to join in the fun, but also martial artists of any reputation from the surrounding areas rushed over upon hearing the news.
Xu Yan initially thought that having a few hundred people would be good enough.
I never imagined it would be more than a few hundred.
A few days ago, I heard Shen Shuangning say that the number of people on the registration list had reached one thousand.
There were even quite a few merchant families.
Merchants are profit-driven, and they look down on ordinary people.
However, Shen Shuangning is a powerful official in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and even a museum owner.
If one could marry one of their own sons into the family and take over the martial arts school in the process, it would be entirely beneficial.
Anyway, the registration fee is only ten taels.
Just in case, Xu Yan used the alias "Shi Jian" to blend in with the contestants and made it all the way to the top 16.
Today is the day to determine the top eight teams.
After the first round of matches is completed, the second round begins.
Xu Yan stared intently at the competition platform.
With a large population, there will naturally be a few truly capable individuals.
But they are all at the third or fourth level of transcendence, so they are not a cause for concern.
What caught Xu Yan's attention was that Chen Dingyi, whom he had met in Sin City a few days ago, had also come.
Moreover, he is quite skilled, and like him, he also practices boxing.
Ten moves.
The opponent fell to the ground.
Chen Dingyi reached out and pulled him up from the ground, revealing a hearty smile.
"You flatter me!"
The one who was defeated was a rich young man, so he could afford to lose.
Knowing that he hadn't let the other party use their full strength, he stood up and returned the greeting with a cupped hand.
As soon as the competition ended, Chen Dingyi prepared to leave.
The final will have to wait until at least tomorrow. He has wasted a lot of time by joining in the fun and doesn't plan to continue competing.
Otherwise, my sister will probably start nagging again.
Just as Chen Dingyi was about to leave, an impatient voice rang out.
"You can all come at me together."
The speaker was a young man wearing a cloak and holding a folding fan.
Wan Gui stood respectfully behind him and took off his cloak for him.
He said cautiously, "Young Master Wu, thank you for your trouble!"
Someone in the crowd recognized him.
"Isn't that Wu Xun? What's he doing here?"
The person who spoke had only arrived in Shangyuan County two days ago and was unaware that Wu Xun had already participated in the competition; they only met him today.
"Wu Xun?"
Hearing the whispers around him, Xu Yan went up and inquired a little.
"Brother Shi, this person is the eldest son of the Wu family of Nanhai County, Dingzhou. He is only twenty-one years old and has already reached the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm."
He had witnessed Xu Yan's boxing skills and had also seen Wu Xun in action.
He lowered his voice and said, "Brother Shi, with your skills, I'm afraid you don't even have a 10% chance of winning!"
After the martial arts contest to find a husband began, some wealthy merchants took the opportunity to open gambling games.
But every time it was Wu Xun's turn to play, the betting game would automatically end.
Because there's almost no suspense involved.
After hearing this, Xu Yan looked at Wan Gui, who was standing next to Wu Xun.
As the eldest son in his family, Wu Xun was too lazy to get involved in such matters.
However, the Wan family paid a considerable amount of money to the Wu family every year, so Wan Gui begged his father, who had no choice but to make this trip to help the Wan family take over the martial arts school.
Wu Xun stepped onto the arena, his expression full of impatience.
He turned to Wan Gui and said, "I don't want to waste any more time watching a bunch of lowly people fight each other."
"Go and make them all come at us together."
The sound was not quiet, and the martial artists who were preparing to compete next to the arena frowned immediately upon hearing it.
"Brother, how arrogant!"
"Do you perhaps disregard my Flying Swallow Double Scissors strategy?"
The speaker wielded a pair of double swords, just like Shen Shuangning.
However, Wu Xun didn't even look at him when he heard this.
Upon seeing this, Wen Ce felt a surge of anger.
He also came from humble beginnings and got to where he is today entirely on his own. What he can't stand the arrogant attitude of scions of wealthy families is the most.
Wen Ce was unwilling to waste any more words and prepared to beat him into submission.
He brandished his twin swords and charged forward like an arrow.
The blades flashed, one to the left and one to the right, blocking Wu Xun's escape route.
But he never looked up.
Wu Xun finally moved when the wind from the blades rushed towards him.
The next moment, Wen Ce's movements froze.
He collapsed before he could even release the twin swords.
"this!"
Some of the martial artists in the audience didn't even see how Wu Xun made his move.
Xu Yan did not activate the unity of heaven and man, and could only barely see a faint afterimage.
Wu Xun probably struck Wen Ce's pressure point with the handle of his fan, which caused him to faint.
After Wen Ce was instantly defeated, the other contestants were filled with apprehension.
Wu Xun glanced at him indifferently.
"What 'Flying Swallow Double Scissors'? You lowly people always love to come up with such vulgar and offensive names!"
Wu Xun turned to the side, his gaze sweeping indifferently over the contestants' preparation area. "You can all come at me together."
Soon, martial artists who were not convinced took turns to challenge him.
One, two, three...
However, the difference in the quality of their martial arts skills is enormous.
Wu Xun didn't even unfold his folding fan; he simply moved around using his agility, casually striking acupoints to knock down one challenger after another.
Just as Xu Yan was about to go on stage, a figure turned back.
"My name is Chen Dingyi. Please enlighten me."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xun finally raised his eyes.
Among all the contestants, only the skill of the person in front of him could barely pique his interest in fighting.
But that's all.
A person of low social standing will always remain a person of low social standing.
The two immediately engaged in combat.
Although Wu Xun's movements were fast, Chen Dingyi's boxing skills were equally impressive.
He seized an opening and punched Wu Xun straight in the face.
Wu Xun finally opened the folding fan in his hand.
With unwavering resolve, the fan instantly blocked the fist.
The force of the fist struck the iron fan with a muffled thud, and Wu Xun's body was also forced back a few steps.
"good!"
The crowd below cheered loudly, and many people disapproved of Wu Xun's arrogant behavior.
Don't you know there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding?
Seeing that Chen Dingyi was gaining the upper hand, they immediately cheered him on.
I've disliked you for a long time!
Wu Xun slowly closed the folding fan and carefully examined Chen Dingyi.
The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
By the time Chen Dingyi noticed the commotion, his opponent had already closed in on him, the tip of his folding fan aimed straight at his vitals.
Chen Dingyi quickly dodged to the side.
Wu Xun swung the folding fan aside and swept it horizontally toward the man's face with force.
After dodging backward, Chen Dingyi raised his hand to touch his neck.
He glanced at the blood on his fingertips and raised an eyebrow.
"Cultivating both inner and outer qualities?"
