Chapter 15: Geniuses are surrounded by other geniuses
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot to withdraw the internal force attached to the axe! Come and pick it up again! This time I will definitely not make such a big noise!"
Tang Qiuyue shouted loudly to Shangguan Jieshu who was not far away. At the same time, passers-by around her looked sideways and immediately moved away from Tang Qiuyue, the dangerous man.
Shangguan Jieshu was so shocked that he was speechless. He looked around and found that Xu Ren'er and the others all looked calm, as if they were used to this matter. This included the guy who looked like he had no martial arts skills and couldn't even beat Mu Shuangyan.
"Just take it!"
Tang Qiuyue was too lazy to walk over and move. The axe was there anyway, and she could just go over and touch it.
Shangguan Jieshu walked straight forward, stepped into the hole, grasped the middle of the axe, and pulled with all his strength, but the axe did not move at all.
It seems that relying solely on strength is not enough.
Shangguan Jieshu thought to himself.
Shangguan Jieshu mobilized his internal energy and exerted force again. The axe was finally pulled out. The axe blade was sharp and sparkled in the sunlight.
"This axe weighs a thousand pounds," Shangguan Jieshu confirmed. He then turned to look at Tang Qiuyue and continued, "Do you usually constantly circulate your internal energy to carry these two axes?"
In response, Tang Qiuyue shook her head and denied it: "No."
"Then how do you usually carry these two huge axes?"
Mu Shuangyan's eyes sparkled, and she looked at Tang Qiuyue with admiration, and asked softly.
"In the early days, I wasn't strong enough, so I carried the axe directly on my back. Later, with continuous physical training, the axe felt lighter and lighter, so I wanted to increase the weight and asked my master for advice."
"What did your master say?"
"He said I could infuse my inner strength into this axe. If it's too light, I'll add more force. If it's too heavy, I'll take it back. I just need to keep it within an acceptable range."
"You've been able to lift such a big axe since you were little? Qiuyue, you're really strong and amazing!"
Mu Shuangyan's tone was filled with admiration that was about to overflow.
When Tang Qiuyue heard this, her face flushed slightly, and she corrected him a little embarrassedly: "
This isn't that exaggerated! When I first encountered these two axes as a kid, I couldn't even carry them. I could only carry one in each hand and drag them along the ground!"
"That's amazing! If it were me, I wouldn't even be able to drag it."
"You just don't practice martial arts! If you practice martial arts, you can also achieve my level, or even better than me!"
"No, with your level, it would be difficult for me to reach the same level as you even if I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child!" Mu Shuangyan shook her head and denied it.
"Shuangyan, you are too modest! I think you can definitely do it!"
The two of them exchanged words, praising and flattering each other.
Shangguan Jieshu, who was listening in, put down his axe and his eyes changed when he looked at Tang Qiuyue.
He quite agreed with Mu Shuangyan's point of view. He was also a martial artist. With Tang Qiuyue's physical fitness, without talent, it would be difficult to reach this level even if he practiced hard since childhood.
It seems that his new friend is not only a genius himself, but the people around him are also genius-level people.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Jieshu's blood almost boiled.
His current mood is one of extreme joy!
Unexpectedly, this trip to Jiucai Country, which was originally just to try my luck, turned out to be a big gain!
With so many talented people, does he still need to worry about not having opponents to fight against in the future?!

It was a quiet morning, with fresh air and warm sunshine. The weather was just right. Outside the arena, onlookers were heading towards the arena one after another, carrying their own cakes and fruits.
Today's games are from the fifth to the eighth, and the seventh game in the middle is Xu Rener's game.
The show started with the drum band playing music again. Ai Wanle walked up to the stage and sat down to wait for the music to end.
The difference was that there was an extra seat on the platform today. When the drumming was about to end, an elderly man in a gorgeous robe, led by a group of guards, sat on the specially set up chair.
This person is none other than Ai Wanle’s younger brother, Ai Fengdou.
The drums stopped beating. When Ai Fengdou saw the man wearing a silver mask standing next to Ai Wanle in the drumming team, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the man carefully.
He observed carefully, and seemed to have discovered something, and his careless eyes instantly turned into surprise, but he changed his mind and glanced at Ai Wanle, and felt that it was expected.
Under the stage, the same person who read the paper from yesterday was in charge of calling out the contestants on the list.
"Mu Shu, Su Junyi, Huo Huaiyuan, Du Xiaoying, Deng Yixing, Nie Erfeng, Fang Haiyue, Guan Wanqing, Zhu Gui, and Chang Sun Ku. Those on the above list, please come up on stage and compete immediately."
Nie Erfeng? !
Xu Ren'er and the others all looked at the baby-faced woman in yellow.
Nie Erfeng smiled slightly, and an expression of determination appeared on her cute and innocent face. She took off the light yellow earmuffs that had been worn on her ears with her bare hands. The next second, she used her lightness skills and flew up.
"The game begins."
When the voice rang out, Nie Erfeng immediately became the target of everyone's attack. With her as the center, the rest of the people each stood at a point and surrounded her.
Not everyone is like Xu Ren'er and his group. They don't even inquire about the other party's background before coming. They just come to compete and test their own level.
Nie Erfeng did not hide her number, so people in the same match as her naturally paid attention to her and immediately discovered that she was actually one of the top eight in the last Jiucai Country competition.
In fact, Nie Erfeng was ambushed last night, but she immediately counterattacked him and eliminated part of the enemy.
Now, excluding the players who didn't even have number cards at the beginning, there are only five people left on the field, including her.
Countless silver needles attacked her from all directions.
Although the remaining four people did not resort to such despicable means as sneak attacks, they all gathered together yesterday and reached a unanimous goal: to kill her first and then compete for the first place.
Nie Erfeng raised his eyes slightly and looked around from top to bottom, from front to back, from left to right. There was almost no place to hide, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Her ears moved slightly, and the next moment, her body became like a soft, flexible dough, as if she was born without bones, with only skin and blood, and her whole body moved like flowing water.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
This was the sound produced by cold weapons colliding with each other. These silver needles did not hit Nie Erfeng, but they could not stop, so they collided with the weapons in the opposite direction, creating a large number of small sparks in the air.
"How is that possible?!"
The onlookers were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
"You guys are so stupid!"
Nie Erfeng had his dislocated bones healed and was standing on the stage intact. He sneered repeatedly, looked down upon others, and said sarcastically:
"Do you think that because I lost to Liu Roulei's silver needles in my last match, I will be defeated by a weapon like silver needles this time? That's ridiculous!"
Did she lose to Yinzhen?
She lost to Liu Roulei's silver needles!!
She didn't even bother to raise her eyelids when facing these people, how could they possibly hurt her?!
The other four people were not in a hurry. Each of them had a wine gourd hanging around his waist. They looked at each other and threw out the last silver needles on their bodies.
Then they each picked up a wine gourd and threw it into the sky.
Among them, the young man in red, Zhu Gui, kicked the wine gourds one by one. His feet were filled with internal energy and kicked at an extremely fast speed. The strong airflow impact caused the wine gourds to explode quickly in front of Nie Erfeng and splash in the air.
The wine merged with the sparks created by the friction in the air, and with a whoosh, a huge ball of fire appeared on the arena.
"Are they planning to just kill her?!"
Xu Ren'er's pupils trembled and he said in surprise.
"No, killing is prohibited in the tournament. If she dies, those who did it will be disqualified.
Moreover, the fact that they were able to work together to besiege the enemy showed that Nie Erfeng was not someone to be dealt with easily and would not be killed so easily.
They should know that.”
Mo Youli stared at the scene intently, frowning, and slowly expressed his analysis.
On the stage, just as Mo Youli guessed, the group of people did not intend to kill her, but just wanted to seriously injure Nie Erfeng.
The fireball quickly dissipated, but they neither heard any screams nor saw Nie Erfeng.
Where's Nie Erfeng?!
"Are you looking for me?"
A soft and childish voice sounded behind them. They suddenly felt something was wrong and reflexively took out their weapons to attack behind them, but it was too late.
Their hands felt empty, as the copper wire had completely wrapped around their weapons and their necks.
"Give up?"
Nie Erfeng half-knelt on the arena with her back to them. Copper wire was wrapped around each of her fingertips. It was obvious that the copper wire was her weapon.
"If you don't intend to admit defeat..."
Nie Erfeng moved his fingertips slightly, and blood marks immediately appeared on the necks of the four people.
If you don't admit defeat, then this arena will no longer be an arena, but a guillotine.
"We... lost..."
Nie Erfeng won this competition!

"She's so strong."
Off the court, Tang Qiuyue witnessed the whole process and sighed from the bottom of her heart.
"She can actually dislocate her body and completely control it. How does she do that?! It's unimaginable!"
Nie Erfeng's performance on the court directly opened Xu Ren'er's eyes.
Mo Youli shared the same sentiment as them, deeply shocked. He said with emotion, "It seems that going down the mountain was a wise move. We were able to witness such a unique martial art with our own eyes. We almost became frogs in a well."
On the stage, Nie Erfeng retracted the copper wire, put on his earmuffs, and was about to leave when the people opposite him, led by the red-dressed young man Zhu Gui, stepped forward and asked, "Nie Erfeng, how did you escape from the fireball?"
No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure it out. The fire was so big, and they were staring at her location. How did she escape under their noses?
Hearing this, Nie Erfeng turned around and raised the corners of his mouth.
"I didn't want to explain to you, but since you're being honest and upright, and I'm in a good mood, I'll let you lose clearly."
She raised her sleeves and swung out copper threads from her sleeves, and each copper thread was tied with a silver needle.
"See? This is why I can win."
Zhu Gui frowned, a little puzzled, and wanted to ask more carefully. However, when he was about to open his mouth, a light bulb went off in his head, and he quickly realized something and smiled helplessly.
"I see."
They lost completely from the very beginning.
