Chapter 440 Let’s Fight! (Two in One)

"Your Majesty, it's time for Xu."

A courtier whispered beside Emperor Yun.

Emperor Yun nodded slightly.

The courtier understood, straightened his waist and said to the ministers and kings: "Everyone, the battle in the cloud is about to start. Those who are interested should go outside the palace."

As soon as these words came out, many kings put down their wine glasses one after another, and their faces were relaxed.

The relatively serious performance competition was over, and the atmosphere in the palace began to spread towards entertainment.

The melodious and soothing piano music sounded again, and the court dancers also floated in like light butterflies.

"Hong Zhen, go, don't embarrass yourself." King Xia didn't pay attention to the dancers dancing in the palace, and opened his mouth to order the entourage behind him.

"Yes." Hong Zhen stood up suddenly, with a huge body and awe-inspiring fighting spirit, as if he was going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

After agreeing, he glanced at Song Changming beside him.

At this time, Song Changming was still calmly tasting the golden crab paste, and from time to time he talked with the palace maid who was peeling the crab shell for him, commenting on the taste and texture of this spiritual crab, and even discussed some cooking methods.

I don’t know whether it was Song Changming’s handsome appearance or his witty words that made the maid who had always been well-behaved smile.

Even though the Yun Emperor’s servant had already notified that the Yunzhong Dou was about to start, Song Changming still looked unconcerned.

“I didn’t expect that the person brought by Cui Wang would be such a sloppy person, which wasted my expectations.”

Hong Zhen curled his lips, no longer paying too much attention to Song Changming, and walked out of the hall on his own.

In the Yunzhong Hall, except for the Yun Emperor’s guards, no one was allowed to activate the Gang Qi.

Therefore, even such a fun fight had to be held outside the hall.

As Hong Zhen stood up and walked out, many other kings also stood up and left one after another.

The participants were not only the entourages brought by the many kings, but also the ministers who were also present at the table, who brought their own entourages.

They could also participate in this battle in the clouds.

To a certain extent, the entourages carefully selected by these ministers also represented the talents and strengths of the young talents of the Imperial City.

In the past, there were many people selected by these ministers who came out on top and overwhelmed all the people brought by the kings!

After all, they were born in the land of spiritual energy, enjoying the powerful teaching staff of the Imperial City and various rare spiritual treasures. It is reasonable that they have such strength and potential that stand out from the crowd.

"Changming." Seeing that Song Changming was still lingering on the spiritual food on the table, the corners of Cui Wang's mouth twitched.

Why didn't he realize that this kid was a bottomless pit of foodie in the past?

If he hadn't observed that Song Changming really ate everything, he would have suspected that this kid had secretly hidden all the spiritual food on the table into his Qiankun Ring.

"Yes." Song Changming swallowed the last bite of food, took the handkerchief presented by the maid, wiped the corner of his mouth, and then stood up.

Looking at the spiritual food on the table, he secretly hoped that it would not get cold.

The maid seemed to see the pity in Song Changming's eyes, and couldn't help but smile and said to Song Changming respectfully: "When you come back, the wine and food on the table will be replaced for you."

"Excellent." Song Changming smiled. The palace maids who could work for the emperor in the Yunzhong Palace were indeed carefully selected, especially those who were excellent in observing words and expressions.

Song Changming bowed to King Cui, and then he also went out of the palace.

To be honest, he didn't have much expectations and fighting spirit for the so-called Yunzhong Fight, just as one of the duties of this business trip.

However, since his 'boss' King Cui treated him well, although he would not fight for it, he would do his best to complete his task.

As for the passion to compete with the heroes of the world, he didn't have it.

Outside the hall, it was dark. Perhaps because he was on a high level, he looked up at the sky and felt that the sea of ​​stars seemed to be close at hand, and he could pick the stars with his hands.

The jade pillars around him were motionless during the day, but at night they were lit up with soft light, illuminating the entire square outside the hall.

When Song Changming came out slowly, a group of participants had already stood outside the hall, and the number should be as many as fifty or sixty.

These people came from all over the world, with different identities, and their expressions and behaviors were even more different.

Some looked serious and stood with their hands down, some smiled and looked relaxed, and some leaned against the glowing jade pillars, folded their hands and closed their eyes to rest.

Some looked around, some were calm, some were unruly, and some looked indifferent.

There is only one feature in common among these people, that is, they all have rare cultivation potential in the world, and they have already gained powerful cultivation strength at a young age.

Each of them has a bright future, and at the worst, they will all be martial arts masters in the future!

Many of them have already defeated all their peers in their own realm!

It is probably only in this imperial banquet, such an occasion, that they can gather a group of contemporary geniuses together to compete and test their strength!

Song Changming came outside the hall, and his Qi training in the innate perfection realm was not noticeable here.

For the young heroes who are qualified to stand here, the innate perfection realm is only the most basic and the least worthy of praise.

Even more than half of the people here are already in the realm of martial arts masters!

Of course, those who have broken through to the martial arts master level are not on the same track as the martial artists in the innate perfection realm.

This is just like a boxing contest that needs to be divided into weight classes, so naturally such a competition also needs to be divided into levels of cultivation.

"Everyone, after sitting here for so long, if you want to watch, just leave." Emperor Yun's voice echoed in the hall.

Soon, the kings stood up one after another, bowed their hands to Emperor Yun, and then went outside the palace.

Then the ministers also stood up and left in twos and threes.

This fight in the clouds is not about actual profit, but about fame and face.

After all, these accompanying people are all carefully selected by them, and they are nominally fighting for them, and they represent them, the kings and ministers.

"Brother Li, please." King Cui stood up and raised his hand.

"I'm going to take a look." King Xia also stood up immediately.

After saluting Emperor Yun, the two of them walked outside the palace.

At this moment, the battle in Yun Zhong outside the palace has begun.

People appeared one after another to face opponents who also volunteered to appear.

Yunzhongdou itself is not a formal duel, and there are not so many rigid rules.

The initial fight in the clouds was just an idea, and it only happened once in twenty-five years.

As long as someone wants to perform, he can play in this situation at any time.

And if you have a goal, you can initiate a challenge at any time.

If you are not convinced, you can tell on the spot.

"Your Majesty." When Song Changming saw King Cui coming out, he simply came to his side.

That Hong Zhen also returned to King Xia.

In fact, as the substitute envoys of the kings, it is not entirely up to them to decide whether to fight or not.

It is more up to the kings behind the decision to decide.

"Those two guys are like this every year, and this year they are the first to fight." King Cui glanced at the two entourages in the sky who were fighting fiercely. They were all familiar faces. He couldn't help but shook his head and said, not even interested in watching anymore.

Even King Xia on the side looked helpless and nodded: "Lianyun and Tianyun, two older generation royals, have lived for seven hundred years in total, and they still want to outdo each other in everything. This I’m afraid it has become an obsession.”

"Just don't upgrade to the inner demon." Prince Cui muttered as his eyes fell on the two old men in royal robes in the distance.

Song Changming listened to the conversation between the two. Although Prince Cui spoke calmly, there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

Obviously this matter worried him.

"King Lianyun and King Tianyun." Song Changming remembered correctly. King Cui once mentioned that he had received favors from these two old masters in his early years, and there was still some kindness between them.

Before the imperial banquet began, King Cui took him to visit the two elderly kings.

"I thought these two old lion kings were allies who would advance and retreat together. I never thought that they would be willing to fight in this situation." Song Changming was also a little surprised by this.

This book was recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:!! Updated!

Representing the will of the two old kings in the field were two Xiantian Perfection Realm warriors.

Both of them used swords and were extremely strong, and they fought hard, causing a lot of noise.

But as the place in front of the palace, there is a very strong protective formation here.

There are runes rising on the ground and on the jade pillars.

When the sword power erupted by the two people exceeds a certain distance, it will be swallowed up and absorbed by the talisman formations on the ground and stone pillars, and will not cause any additional damage.

If not, the location of Yunzhongdou would not have been so hastily set up outside the main hall.

The two of them did not decide the winner so quickly. It was not until half an hour passed that one of them lost a sword move, and then he was sprayed bloody by King Yun that day.

King Lianyun's face was red and he looked arrogant. The angry King Tianyun also blushed and wished he could roll up his sleeves and challenge King Lianyun himself.

On the other side, the victorious King Lianyun's entourage did not leave the scene, but continued to stay in mid-air, standing with a sword.

Usually after a competition, the winner may or may not retreat.

Similar to defending a ring, being able to defeat powerful enemies and maintain a winning streak is naturally a higher performance and the most glorious moment.

Therefore, those who feel they have enough strength will choose to defend and strive for consecutive victories.

But this is undoubtedly quite difficult.

After all, none of the people present are background characters. They are all invincible protagonists in their respective stories. How can they give up easily at this point?

Even if Song Changming has a working-class mentality, he would not want to lose to others if conditions permit.

"Lao Hu, if you don't want to go, I will let you go." King Xia said to King Cui on the side.

King Cui chuckled, "If you win, I will let Chang Ming challenge your entourage."

"It's a deal." King Xia was not afraid at all.

Hong Zhen, who was on the side, heard what King Xia said and knew that the matter had been decided. He immediately stepped out and entered the venue before everyone else.

He turned his hand, and an extremely wide double-edged ax fell into his palm.

The ax blade is more than one meter wide and looks extremely heavy.

"Are you practicing the ax path?" Song Changming couldn't help but take another look at the double-edged axe.

The further he practiced, the more similar the martial arts he met to the strong warriors he met.

Either he specializes in the art of swordsmanship, or he studies the art of swordsmanship diligently. The practice of spearmanship is also quite popular in the military.

In addition, warriors who play with axes like this are becoming increasingly rare.

So much so that he was a little surprised to see someone today.

"Zixia said, Hong Zhen!" Hong Zhen came to the field and said in a deep voice.

His eyes were calm, without much nonsense. After reporting his identity, he began to enter the fighting state. His might suddenly rose, and his whole body of Qi coiled around the double-edged axe, transforming into a dragon's breath.

Hong Zhen was a stranger who had never shown his face at the emperor's banquet, so he did not attract much attention at first.

But as Hong Zhen showed his might, many people at the scene looked up.

They were all powerful people with profound martial arts attainments, and they could see at a glance that Hong Zhen's strength was probably extraordinary.

They were both in the innate perfection realm, and the difference in strength could still be very large.

A powerful innate perfection realm warrior could easily kill ordinary warriors in the same realm.

Just judging from the might of Hong Zhen's appearance, even if he didn't make a move, he could be judged as a very strong existence in the same realm.

"Okay, come!" The entourage of King Lianyun was not a timid person, and said loudly with great determination.

The next moment, Hong Zhen's axe had already been chopped out.

A white dragon transformed by the Qi rushed towards his opponent with a roar, and swallowed up the entourage of King Lianyun in a blink of an eye.

The power was so great that even the calmness on King Cui's face was put away a little.

"Good Li Xuan, he has cultivated such a talent without making any noise."

The dragon blasted past and finally hit a jade pillar, stirring up a larger rune energy.

When the dragon dissipated, only the entourage of King Lianyun was seen leaning on the jade pillar, panting like a cow, with blood still flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Hong Zhen deeply and bowed his hands.

"I admit defeat."

After saying that, he retreated consciously and vacated the venue.

"My king, please forgive me for not being able to hold on." The entourage returned to the side of King Lianyun and said with some shame.

Before he came, he had a preset performance for himself, and this time it did not meet his own psychological expectations.

"It doesn't matter. You can defeat the entourage of King Tianyun. That's enough. Whether you can win consecutive victories in the future is just icing on the cake. If you have it, you have it. If you don't, it doesn't matter."

"Besides, you have already consumed a lot in the first battle, and your strength has been reduced. In addition, King Xia doesn't have martial ethics. There is nothing we can do about it."

King Lianyun said, he didn't mind, and he didn't mean to blame his entourage. Instead, he comforted his entourage with a few words in a good mood.

"Even if I am in good condition, I am afraid it will be dangerous to face this opponent." The entourage of King Lianyun looked at Hong Zhen in the field, guessing Hong Zhen's true strength in his heart, and shook his head secretly.

In terms of Qi training, he is not much inferior to Hong Zhen, but in terms of real combat power, Hong Zhen obviously suppresses him!
