Chapter 20 The first round ended successfully
Shangguan Jieshu restrained his urge to go on stage and grab someone, pursed his lips, and watched quietly as Shangguan Shujie completely defeated her opponent.
On the stage, Shangguan Shujie used the seventh move of the Shangguan family's Monkey Stick Technique, which is the 21 moves - Monkey Dividing the Peach.
This move is suitable for scenarios where a single person faces a group fight.
A domestic monkey went out alone with some peaches he had just picked from his tree, but happened to meet a group of wild monkeys who wanted to steal his peaches.
Unfortunately, there was an unused stick next to the domestic monkey. In order to protect the unique peach in his arms, the domestic monkey picked up the stick next to him and chose to fight against a group of monkeys alone.
Shangguan Shujie herself is the domestic monkey, and the group of opponents on the opposite side are regarded as wild monkeys competing with her for peaches.
Her movements were very agile and she jumped flexibly. Her nails suddenly grew longer and her left hand would sometimes grab, sometimes scratch, and sometimes pull at the opponent's face. Her legs seemed to be infused with another soul, sometimes kicking, sometimes pushing, and sometimes stomping.
Her right hand was not idle either, and the dark pink stick attacked the contestant's abdomen without mercy.
Witnessing Shangguan Shujie's actions, Shangguan Jieshu held his forehead with one hand, unable to bear to watch.
It's all his fault. When they were little, he couldn't resist Shangguan Shujie's nagging and taught her the Monkey Viewing Stick Technique.
Look at her on the stage. She doesn't have the image of a lady from a noble family at all. She's like a monkey without moral qualities.
Indecent, so indecent!!
At this moment, the only thing Shangguan Jieshu was thankful for was that Shangguan Shujie at least knew to disguise herself.
The onlookers were stunned. If the five-colored python brought them a shock of strength, then Shangguan Shujie brought them a shock of vision.
Shangguan Shujie won this competition!
On the stage, Shangguan Shujie looked around with a smile on her face, spotted Shangguan Jieshu, and raised her hand to greet him.
Seeing this, Mu Shuangyan looked up at Shangguan Jieshu and asked in confusion:
"Do you know each other?"
Shangguan Jieshu's face was numb, and he said stiffly, "I don't know him."
"But you all have the surname Shangguan..."
Shangguan Jieshu interrupted and replied, "It's just a surname."
The Monkey Guardian Stick Technique was abandoned by the Shangguan family a long time ago. Although this technique is very good, it is not solemn and elegant enough, and does not conform to the image that a noble family should have.
If he had not been a child, when he was rummaging through a corner of the study at home and found it quite interesting, and practiced it for a while, and Shangguan Shujie happened to find out, they would not have known about the existence of the Monkey Observation Stick Technique.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Jieshu felt pain all over his body. Teaching Shangguan Shujie martial arts would be nothing, but Shangguan Shujie had an extremely high talent for martial arts.
When his family discovered that Shangguan Shujie had already learned most of the Monkey Observation Stick Techniques and had made some progress, he got to taste the mixed doubles of his parents for the first time in his life.
Fortunately, the Shangguan family made their fortune in the early years through the Monkey Guan Stick Method. If all twenty-one moves of the Monkey Guan Stick Method can be practiced, then they will surely become one of the strongest in the martial arts world.
Therefore, after three days and three nights of internal discussion, the Shangguan family finally agreed to allow Shangguan Shujie to continue practicing the Monkey Observation Stick Technique.
When Shangguan Shujie used the Monkey Observation Stick Technique, he knew that she would definitely win.
——
The following competition was basically boring, at least in Xu Ren'er's opinion, most people's martial arts skills were mediocre, and the levels of the winners and losers were almost the same.
From Shangguan Jieshu's perspective, this level of competition was child's play, so he appeared very comfortable in his explanation to the onlookers. He even added some of his own ways of cracking the game into his narrative, which was detailed and exciting.
Among Mo Youli's previous matches, only Xiao Aodang's match was somewhat interesting.
Xiao Aodang's weapon is an iron folding fan the color of purple vine. The edge of the iron fan is carved with layers of pure white hollow cloud patterns, which is exquisite and beautiful.
His moves were gorgeous and exquisite, yet still retained a perverted aftertaste. Wherever he passed, there was the sound of fabric ripping.
For his male opponents, he cut their clothing, making them look tattered and naked;
For his female opponents, he cut off the hairbands that bound their hair.
In the audience, Yan Beibi smiled with her hands covering her lips.
Xiao Aodang always criticized him for his low-brow methods, but in his opinion, Xiao Aodang was not much better.
He did not deny that Xiao Aodang was an upright person, but he thought that Xiao Aodang's integrity was a bit biased.
It would be better if he did something dirty behind the scenes.
At this moment, the onlookers were all frowning. If they had to comment on this game, they would only have one sentence to say.
Not very aggressive, but extremely insulting.
However, among the onlookers, there were some young women who blushed and covered their faces shyly, leaving only a tiny gap to peek secretly.
As for the older women, they watched openly, their hungry eyes like those of hungry wolves, their gazes that wanted to remove the only fig leaf of the men on the stage, which was chilling.
People who have practiced martial arts for a long time cannot be guaranteed to have a strong physique, but they basically have everything they should have.
In this competition, Xiao Aodang wins!!
———
Time flew by slowly, and finally, it was Mo Youli's turn, which was also the last game in the first round.
As usual, Xu Ren'er and others gave great encouragement before Mo Youli went on stage.
Tang Qiuyue: "Ali, I believe in you, you can definitely do it! Come on, come on!!"
Xu Ren'er: "Swords have no eyes, be careful in everything you do, life comes first, remember this."
Tang Beiju: "With your level, it's easy to win."
Mo Youli smiled lightly, his eyes full of tenderness, and the look he gave them reminded people of the word doting.
He turned slowly and walked onto the arena. He touched the white jade flute at his waist with his bare hands. His expression changed from tenderness to determination, and his aura suddenly became sharp.
The match was announced to begin. The enemy came with great momentum. The white jade flute was well-made and extremely hard. He used the flute to resist, moving back and forth, defending but not attacking, wandering among the crowd.
He scanned everyone's movements, predicting their possible next actions. Finally, he seemed to have figured out everyone's level and chose a position to stand.
A white jade flute was placed to the lips, and the melodious flute sound slowly rang out.
At the edge of the arena, wriggling insects broke out of the ground and climbed up the arena little by little.
"ah----"
The bugs targeted all the contestants except Mo Youli, and the dense swarms of bugs moved towards them.
Outside the venue, some of the onlookers had already gotten goosebumps and were so scared that they closed their eyes and dared not watch anymore.
"I feel like vomiting... Ugh..."
Some of those who suffer from trypophobia and insect fear vomited on the spot, and some fainted directly.
On the stage, the contestants kept attacking the insects around them, bombarding them with internal energy and stabbing them with swords, but these insects seemed endless. After killing one batch, another batch came.
Catch the leader first!
This sentence popped into everyone's mind immediately.
Sharp eyes were fixed on Mo Youli. The surroundings of the young man in blue were clean, without a trace of dust. A halo of light shone on him. He closed his eyes tightly and enjoyed the music he played wantonly.
Using their internal energy to scare away the insects that appeared around them, the other contestants used their lightness skills, leaped into the air, and attacked Mo Youli with their weapons.
“How is that possible?!!”
The insects quickly gathered into a ball, forming a huge, wriggling insect wall in front of Mo Youli.
The blood splattered on the insects. They couldn't attack Mo Youli at all. If they attacked from the left, a wall of insects would appear on the left. If they attacked from the right, a wall of insects would appear on the right.
He used his inner strength to break it open violently, but in less than a second, the next insect wall was immediately formed.
"Hey! You're hiding in a pile of bugs. How can you be considered a fighter? How can you be considered a man? You're just a coward who can only hide behind others!"
One of the contestants, Bao Tianxiong, angrily said in the direction of Mo Youli.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Ren'er and others looked at him unfriendly, clenched their fists, and planned to teach this player the etiquette of speaking after the game was over.
They can't accept anyone insulting their family!
"Don't be impulsive, let me do it."
A gentle voice sounded softly, and the others present were confused, but Xu Ren'er and others loosened their fists and their eyes became calm.
The sound of the flute disappeared and the insect swarm retreated.
Mo Youli was neither happy nor angry. He smiled faintly at the group of people opposite him, bowed and said:
"Now that things have come to this, if I don't take the initiative, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."
After he finished speaking, Mo Youli moved, and the white jade flute became his best assistant in the attack.
"This is a casual sword technique. Your technique is very precise, but I remember there is a flaw in this sword technique..."
"I'm too lazy to think about sword techniques. Seeing that you're so young, you've already reached the ninth level. That's amazing. It's a pity that you still need to practice..."
"This is quite strange! It's actually the long-lost technique called the Whip-Laying Technique. I didn't realize it at first. Although it's not quite consistent with what I saw in the book, it's no different from the more special moves I remember..."
Mo Youli easily told the origins of each person's martial arts, and accurately found the flaws in each martial art, targeting the flaws one by one to overcome them.
This is certainly not because there are flaws in these techniques themselves.
In fact, if this kind of martial arts that can be passed down from generation to generation has obvious flaws and can be easily cracked by others, then naturally no one will practice or learn it.
There is an age limit for the competition, and unless one is extremely gifted, it is impossible to fully master and understand the excellent skills without years of accumulation.
This is also why Mo Youli broke the opponent's moves with just a few moves: the skills are very good, but unfortunately the talent is not enough.
These contestants did not have a deep enough understanding of the martial arts, and the moves they used were too immature for him.
If the other contestants knew what Mo Youli was thinking, they would probably spit out blood and start cursing.
Do they really have no talent?
All the contestants who dare to come to the Jiucai Kingdom martial arts competition are children of other families since childhood and are extremely talented.
They passed Ai Wanle's initial registration screening and successfully obtained their own number cards. All of this shows that they are definitely not ordinary people.
There is no doubt that they are absolutely geniuses!
But this happened to be held by the Jiucai Country, an all-round free competition that was not limited by origin, species, or weapons.
This is a competition that is completely between geniuses, screening out the geniuses among geniuses, and is a competition of a different nature from previous ones.
Unfortunately, even for the most talented of geniuses, luck plays an extremely important role.
Shangguan Jieshu is a well-known martial arts genius in Cabbage Country. His level is definitely far superior to that of most of the contestants here. Isn’t he good enough?
Unfortunately, he met Tang Beiju in the first round and was eliminated in the first round.
Fortunately, Mo Youli still had his sanity and did not express his thoughts, otherwise the martial arts competition would likely turn into a debate competition.
If this is true, Ai Wanle will have to take action personally and teach Mo Youli a lesson.
——
Having successfully defeated all opponents in this match, Mo Youli did not leave the field immediately after the result was announced.
He strode up to Bao Tianxiong, a young man who looked a little thin, about twenty years old.
"Can you retract that comment you made about being a coward?"
Mo Youli bent down, looked down at Bao Tianxiong lying on the ground, and asked kindly.
His tone was extremely gentle, like a spring breeze, and he seemed to not care at all about the other person's words.
Only the slight coldness that inadvertently flashed in his eyes revealed his emotions.
Bao Tianxiong, who was being questioned, was actually not a bad person. He just spoke out of impulse at the time and regretted his outspokenness after he finished speaking.
The reason why he didn't apologize immediately was because everyone was still playing the game. It would have seemed a bit strange to suddenly apologize after cursing.
What's more, Mo Youli also proved himself with his strength.
Now that Mo Youli was willing to give him a way out, Bao Tianxiong naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you a wimp. You're amazing."
Bao Tianxiong said sincerely.
After getting the answer he wanted to hear, Mo Youli nodded with satisfaction, stood up, walked down from the arena, and walked towards Xu Ren'er and the others.
From then on, the first round of competition ended successfully.
