Chapter Five Hundred and Eighty Sixth: One Move Determines the Outcome
On the high platform, Shi Hailong nodded slightly with a smile, and several old men beside him also nodded secretly.
Some things, below a certain level, can't be seen from the surface at all.
Shi Hailong laughed lightly and said, "One of these two has the guts to let go of gambling, the other knows how to advance and retreat, and doesn't deliberately pursue victory. There are so many geniuses. In fact, this is why they stand out from the crowd."
An old man next to him nodded and said, "It's hard to distinguish between the two in terms of skills. Xiao Chen's sword skills and Jiang Zimo's palm skills, neither of them can do anything to the other."
"If you want to win, you can only go beyond the battle of skills and really use strategy. According to your own characteristics, you can tilt the balance of the battle to your side."
Another person said: "Jiang Zimo is characterized by persistent fighting power, so try to delay the battle as much as possible, and wait until the opponent's vitality is weakened, then he will really make a heavy hand to determine the outcome."
"Xiao Chen is characterized by a strong physical body and explosive vitality, but it consumes too much vitality, so he uses a situation where both sides suffer, forcing Jiang Zimo to decide the victory with one move, even if he is seriously injured."
Shi Hailong laughed softly: "Both of them are talents, I really look forward to it in the ancient tower, how far they can go, maybe it will surprise us."
The simple battle, under the explanation of the martial arts masters on the stage, made everyone in the underground gasp.
Unexpectedly, under the seemingly ordinary moves, there are so many ways, each of them thought deeply and secretly understood.
Xiao Chen dissipated the green dragon spirit from his left hand, looked at Jiang Zimo who retreated to the edge of the ring, and said, "You can actually take a gamble. After my serious injury, my body will be weak, and I may not be able to defeat you."
Jiang Zimo shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't have to be humble. I don't have a 70% winning rate and I don't know how to fight. You won this round. Let's see who can go further in the ancient tower!"
A genius has the self-confidence of a genius. Although Jiang Zimo lost this match, he has no doubts about the twenty places, and he will definitely be one of them.
Xiao Chen nodded and said: "Then we see you at the Ancient Tower!"
The arena battle continued, Xiao Chen was a little helpless, except for Jiang Zimo, the opponents in the next few rounds were all timid before the battle, and surrendered on the field.
The fifteenth round of lottery ended, and Xiao Chen got the number eight on the blue wooden card. When he walked to the arena with the red wooden card number eight on it.
It was found that the opponent was a more interesting character, and it was Leng Yun, the young master of the Holy Huoshan Village, who had been deprived of the heart of the fire of the most yin.
Looking at Xiao Chen who jumped onto the ring, the corner of Leng Yun's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he clenched his fist tightly, almost releasing his murderous aura directly.
After calming down, Leng Yun's expression returned to normal and he said, "I'm not as good as you, admit defeat."
Xiao Chen didn't want to let him go like this, and said with a faint smile: "Why do you admit defeat and don't want to return to your original heart?"
Leng Yun, who was about to end, immediately turned cold when he heard these words, and the suppressed anger in his heart suddenly burst out, his fingers clenched tightly, and there was a bang.
It took him ten years of cultivation to reach the size of a baby's fist, the original heart of the most yin fire.
After ten years of hard work, Xiao Chen directly snatched it away. It was even more uncomfortable than killing him.
Closing his eyes, Leng Yun took a few deep breaths before saying coldly: "It's okay, you keep it for a while, and I will get it back with interest when the time comes!"
Xiao Chen looked at this person's back and frowned slightly, this guy's mind is indeed calm.
Being so stimulated by myself, he can still calm down and not do impulsive things. In the ring, Xiao Chen's plan to cripple him directly and honestly ended without a problem.
The battle ended in a hurry, Xiao Chen returned to the bottom of the statue of Emperor Tianwu, and started to pay attention to the battle on the field together with others.
"This Chu Chaoyun is really low-key. He won fifteen games in a row without making a sound. Even Pei Shaoxuan was defeated by him."
"The most important thing is that I haven't seen him pull out the sword behind his back. I really didn't expect that besides Xiao Chen, there is such a powerful person in the Great Qin Kingdom."
"I underestimated them before, but Duanmuqing seems to have won a dozen games, and her strength should not be underestimated."
There was no battle outside the arena for the time being, or the contestants who had already finished the battle looked at the crowd on the ring and began to discuss in a low voice.
Xiao Chen's heart moved, and he followed everyone's gaze. Chu Chaoyun's opponent was a swordsman from Chu State.
With a long sword on his back, the expression on his face is always so calm, neither deliberate nor artificial.
As if he is, as it should be, everything is natural.
I haven't seen each other for half a year, and after saying goodbye to Tiandao Pavilion, Chu Chaoyun and Xiao Chen are still the same as the first time I saw him.
Xiao Chen has never doubted his strength, even though he is making rapid progress and defeating countless geniuses from all over the world.
Facing Chu Chaoyun, he still felt a little unclear, like an old well, the more he thought about it, the more unfathomable he felt.
"He won again. This guy has won 15 games in a row. Like Zuo Mo, Xiao Chen and others, he hasn't lost a single game."
"It's really a dark horse, it's amazing!"
Chu Chaoyun's battle was over, he wasted a bit of effort, defeated the swordsman from Chu, and then walked off the stage silently.
After a few days, no one dared to underestimate him anymore, even the top figure Xia Xiyan in Jiang Zimo's Chu tomb looked at him a little bit differently.
The night fell quietly, and the first day of the ring battle ended like this. Some people were happy and some were worried.
If you are lucky, you are complacent, saying that the few rounds you encountered were not very powerful people, and you easily solved your opponents and won most of the victories.
Those who were unlucky kept complaining, most of the fifteen battles encountered tasks of Zuo Mo's level, resulting in losing more than half of them and ranking at the bottom.
Of course, these are just a few, and most of them have good or bad luck. The opponents are strong or weak, and they have worked hard all the way through relying on their strength.
On the high platform, Shi Hailong said loudly: "Don't leave, just spend the night in the square today, and when the results of tomorrow's battle come out, immediately open the ancient tower. The ancient tower must be opened before dusk."
Everyone heard the words, but they didn't react too much, they just dealt with it in the square overnight, without any pressure at all.
Each finds a place, sits cross-legged, and starts to adjust breath or practice.
Xiao Chen found a place with fewer people, sat cross-legged without much hesitation, and began to practice with his eyes closed.
The next morning, as the sun fell, the warriors sitting cross-legged opened their eyes, got up and began to exercise their muscles and bones, preparing for a new day's duel.
The first round of lottery began, and Xiao Chen got a red wooden sign with the number 23 on it, and waited for the first eighteen contestants to finish their battles.
Find a ring, hang the wooden sign on it, and start quietly waiting for your own opponent.
I hope there won't be another warrior who is timid before fighting, that's really nothing, Xiao Chen thought helplessly in his heart.
call out!
While he was pondering, a familiar figure jumped onto the ring, that person looked at Xiao Chen with a faint smile and said, "It's a bit unlucky, I actually got the frightening white-robed swordsman."
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at this person solemnly, and said, "Chu Chaoyun!"
Chu Chaoyun said with a faint smile: "It's okay to reminisce about the old days. It's still the same as before, you and I will each make a move, and one move will determine the outcome."
Xiao Chen clasped his right hand on the hilt of the knife and said, "Yes, I am also curious whether your sword is still as sharp as before." ()
