"No way...Su Cheng...did he really grow up in the countryside?"

"His moves are no worse than Qin Jiang's..."

"What do you mean by not worse than Qin Jiang's... He broke Qin Jiang's spear..."

"It's not the moves, it's the strength and angle." The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War said, "The reason why he didn't rush to attack after entering the field was that he was looking for flaws in Qin Jiang's weapons and moves."

It just dawned on him.

Qin Jiang did not let up from the beginning to the end. Instead, Su Cheng lured Qin Jiang into making a move step by step, and used his forbearance to the extreme. In the end, he even deliberately revealed a flaw to lure Qin Jiang into saying something and distracting him.

It seems disorganized, but in fact it is planned step by step.

This Su Cheng...is not a reckless man.

Qin Jiang looked at the broken spear and couldn't believe that it was Su Cheng who did it!

Why is this happening?

He just mentioned Su Huayin, why didn't Su Cheng react? Shouldn't he have fainted from the shock? And...

What did he mean by what he just said? "You have no right to mention my mother!"

Su Cheng...knows that Su Huayin is his mother?

Su Cheng recovered his memory? !

Too many doubts flashed through Qin Jiang's mind, and his thoughts were in uncontrollable chaos. He tried to stay calm, but Su Cheng would not give him this chance.

Su Cheng's long sword slashed towards him again.

There are no fancy routines, nor any so-called knife techniques, boxing techniques, sword techniques, or internal skills...

Qin Jiang thought that the old marquis and Qin Canglan were partial, so he taught them everything he had learned in his life in one month.

Qin Jiang never expected that the two of them had not taught Su Cheng any moves in this month.

Su Cheng was being beaten.

However, if Qin Canglan and the old marquis are unable to kill Su Cheng, a warrior of Qin Jiang's level should not even have the wishful thinking!

Qin Jiang felt the change in Su Cheng's aura. It seemed that since the mention of Su Huayin, the anger in Su Cheng's body began to burn fiercely.

Qin Jiang used the broken spear to resist.

However, after only blocking twice, his arms began to feel slightly numb.

What a terrible force!

Did Su Cheng take any medicine? ! Qin Yanran looked at her father who was being forced to retreat step by step on the martial arts arena and frowned worriedly: "Xu Qing, will my father be okay?"

"It's hard to say." Xu Qing said.

"What do you mean? Could it be that my father will lose to Su Cheng?"

"The master has no weapons in his hands."

Losing a weapon is like losing an arm.

Of course, absolute strength is enough to make up for this gap. If Su Cheng was fighting against Qin Canglan at this time, let alone losing his weapon, even if one of his arms was tied, Qin Canglan would still be invincible.

The problem is that Qin Jiang does not have the terrifying strength of Qin Canglan.

"Can't you take another weapon?" Qin Yanran asked.

Xu Qing said: "Yes, next game."

Qin Yanran: "..."

Su Cheng became furious, and the situation on the arena took a dramatic turn. Every time he chopped with his sword, Qin Jiang was forced to retreat two steps. At the beginning, Qin Jiang pressed Su Cheng to attack, but now, Su Cheng was chasing Qin Jiang and beating him.

In fact, Qin Jiang was in a much worse state than Su Cheng.

Qin Jiang at least considered the correctness of the moves, but Su Cheng didn't care about those things. Whether the moves looked good or not, whether they were standard or not, what was the point? He just wanted the result.

The result was that he pinned Qin Jiang down and beat him like a sandbag, leaving Qin Jiang without any chance to fight back.

"It's over, Qin Jiang!"

He jumped up, and with a spinning kick, he kicked Qin Jiang in the head and kicked Qin Jiang hard to the stage!

All the officials stood up in a rush.

The scene was quiet!

"Is...is it Qin Jiang?" asked an official.

A colleague at the side said with wide eyes: "Really? Anyway, the one standing on the stage is not him..."

Qin Jiang, who had practiced martial arts in the Duke of Huguo's mansion for twenty years, actually lost to Su Cheng, a country boy? What a joke!

Once you get off the stage, you are out, and the eunuch next to you will strike the gong.

Princess Hui'an snorted coldly: "Useless thing! Can't even beat a farmer!"

Princess Jingning's lips curved slightly under her veil: "Father, Qin Jiang lost."

Although Emperor Jingxuan had made preparations for both scenarios, he was inclined to believe that Qin Jiang would win.

He frowned impatiently.

In front of all the civil and military officials, it was not good to hit himself in the face, so he could only say in a deep voice: "Second round, Qin Che wins."

The old marquis smiled with joy.

"I knew Cheng'er wouldn't lose!"

Qin Canglan: "Then why did you adopt the fifth child to Cheng'er..."

The old marquis coughed lightly: "Isn't it that Cheng'er fainted? You didn't object!"

The two elders saw Su Cheng's progress.

But to say that he defeated Qin Jiang is actually a bit of a stretch.

Su Cheng performed exceptionally well today, as if he had a fire burning in his heart, igniting an extraordinary fighting spirit.

Qin Jiang pleaded to change his weapons.

Emperor Jingxuan approved.

"I'm going to the toilet." Qin Jiang said to the eunuch guarding the arena.

Su Cheng carried the sword on his shoulder and sneered, "You coward, you're just a bunch of shit!"

Qin Jiang: “……!!”

Qin Jiang went to the toilet, and Su Cheng didn't want to stand alone on the arena, so he jumped down with his sword, walked up to Su Xiaoxiao, and asked in a playful manner, "How was the fight, Dad?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him with clear eyes: "Dad is very powerful."

Hey, one compliment from my daughter is better than a hundred compliments from others!

Su Cheng is full of fighting spirit again!

Xu Qing followed Qin Jiang to the toilet.

Make sure there is no one around.

Qin Jiang frowned and said, "It's no use stimulating Su Cheng's memory! When you fought with Su Cheng that day, was he also this strong?"

"Yes." Xu Qing said.

Qin Jiang said coldly: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have stepped up my defenses!"

Xu Qing said: "I thought the master saw it."

Qin Jiang was speechless.

In terms of martial arts attainments, he is not as good as Xu Qing, and what Xu Qing can see, he may not be able to.

But he couldn't admit it, right? "There's another one." Qin Jiang said.

Best of three, they each won one game, and the third game was the crucial one.

"Master." Xu Qing took out a ring from his arms and handed it to him.

Qin Jiang asked in confusion: "This is——"

Xu Qing put the ring on his thumb and pressed it from the bottom with his index finger.

Swoosh! A silver needle shot out and nailed into the big tree in front! Xu Qing took off the ring: "There are still two silver needles left in it."

Qin Jiang frowned: "You want me to use hidden weapons against Su Cheng in the duel?"

Xu Qing said: "I didn't say you can't use it."

Qin Jiang hesitated: "This..."

Xu Qing explained: "The hidden weapon is non-toxic, it is just coated with a little knockout drug, which can make the opponent lose strength instantly. In addition, it can penetrate armor."

Qin Jiang asked again: "Will it be an unfair victory?"

Xu Qing said: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit."

Yes, compared to winning unfairly, losing to Su Cheng is the most embarrassing.

Qin Jiang took the jade ring and put it on his left thumb.

After Qin Jiang came back from the toilet, he went straight to the competition stage.

Su Cheng also planned to go over.

Su Xiaoxiao paused and called him: "Dad..."

…

Half a quarter of an hour later, the gong was struck and the third round of competition officially began.

This time, Qin Jiang used not a spear but a sword.

He found that Su Cheng was good at close combat, and the spear did not have an advantage in close combat. The long sword was more effective in restraining Su Cheng's broadsword.

Qin Jiang's spear skills were taught by Qin Canglan, and his sword skills were learned from the old marquis.

With Qin Jiang's physical fitness, he is more suitable for wielding a light sword.

He did not use the long sword in the second round. Firstly, he felt he did not need it, and secondly, he hoped to defeat Su Cheng using the martial arts taught to him by Qin Canglan.

Qin Jiang looked coldly at Su Cheng on the opposite side: "I won't give you any more chances in this round."

Su Cheng said arrogantly: "Do I need you to give me a chance? Have you forgotten who kicked you down?"

Qin Jiang's face turned dark.

The corners of Wei Ting's lips curled up imperceptibly and he continued to sip his tea.

Xiao Duye asked with a half-smile, "Master Wei, who do you think will win this round?"

Wei Ting said calmly: "What do you think, Your Highness?"

Xiao Duye smiled and said, "As for me, I think the chances of winning are 50-50. Su Cheng's talent is obviously stronger than Qin Jiang's, but it's a pity that he was delayed in the countryside for 30 years. The gap between him and Qin Jiang cannot be made up in just one month."

Wei Ting said: "Your Highness, let's make a bet. Su Cheng can win."

Xiao Duye said with amusement: "Bet?"

Wei Ting said seriously: "Five thousand taels."

Xiao Duye smiled faintly: "Let me make it clear first, I don't sell on credit. If you want to gamble, take out the banknotes first."

Wei Ting paused, turned his head and looked to the side, and said calmly: "Third Prince, can you lend me some money?"

Xiao Chonghua: "..."

The gong sounded and the third round began.

With the experience of the previous round, no one dared to say that Qin Jiang was letting Su Cheng win this time.

It's hard to explain. Su Cheng was on a killing spree today. As soon as he came on the court, he quickly took control and suppressed Qin Jiang's output.

Qin Jiang had never seen such an unconventional fighting style before. Every move was so ugly, yet it was impossible to defend against it.

If the two of them were still fighting back and forth in the second round, in this round, Su Cheng didn't give Qin Jiang any chance to make a move at all.

This is the revenge for killing his mother, the hatred for hurting his son! It is the anger that Su Cheng cannot let go of!

"Cheng'er he..." The old marquis looked at Su Cheng, who was blood-thirsty, and seemed to understand something in a trance.

Qin Canglan's expression also became complicated and excited.

He secretly clenched his fists.

Su Cheng kicked Qin Jiang in the chest, and Qin Jiang fell ten steps away on the arena, with his clothes torn!

Qin Jiang spat out a mouthful of blood. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and glared at Su Cheng coldly.

Su Cheng kicked him in the chest again!

"Father!" Qin Yanran turned pale.

Qin Jiang rolled over to avoid Su Cheng's foot.

Then he swung his sword horizontally.

If you can't dodge in time, he will chop off one of your legs! Su Cheng knelt on one knee and stabbed down with his long knife!

Clang! The tip of the knife landed precisely on Qin Jiang's sword blade. With a crisp sound, Qin Jiang's sword was also shattered by Su Cheng's sword! Everyone was dumbfounded.

No way? Again?! Is it that Qin Jiang's weapon is useless, or Su Cheng's weapon is too useful? The Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War said: "He just used inch force, which seems insignificant, but it can instantly burst out ten times the force."

Inch power is very fast and most people cannot see it.

A civil servant at the side asked: "So it's not a problem with the weapons, it's Su Cheng's own strength? Is he really that powerful?"

The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War nodded solemnly: "I'm afraid so. We all underestimated Su Cheng. I remember that when he was very young, he was a martial arts genius, but it's a pity that he disappeared at the age of six..."

Yes, a good father will have a good son. Qin Canglan is the number one general in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so naturally his son will not be too bad.

Twenty years ago, sixteen-year-old Qin Jiang returned as Qin Canglan's legitimate son. His talent was much inferior, and everyone thought that he had wasted ten years among the people and had wasted his excellent physique.

Now it seems that there is no waste? It is a dragon, not a worm. Su Cheng uses the simplest and roughest fighting method to show everyone his amazing strength and reaction ability! In other words, is Qin Jiang really bad? Not really.

In Qin Canglan's eyes, he was injured in his youth, which affected his aptitude for martial arts.

But that is Qin Canglan's perverted standard.

Strictly speaking, he has above average qualifications among ordinary people.

And Su Cheng has top qualifications.

That's all.

Su Cheng kicked Qin Jiang.

As majestic as Qin Jiang was when he came on the court, he was as embarrassed as ever at this moment.

Many officials on the grassland were already exhausted.

What happened to crushing Su Cheng?

This is basically like being beaten like a sandbag by Su Cheng!

Emperor Jingxuan's face turned very ugly.

"Today's snacks are delicious. Enjoy." Princess Jingning said.

Eunuch Fu smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, I'll make a note of it."

As Su Cheng was beating the guy, he suddenly slipped and fell.

Baji!

He fell flat on his face.

The long knife in his hand flew out and happened to land at Qin Jiang's feet.

This is really a pillow for you when you are sleepy! Qin Jiang grabbed the long knife and slashed at Su Cheng with murderous intent.

"Go ahead! Go ahead! Go ahead!"

The officials shouted in low voices.

Su Cheng looked at Qin Jiang steadily for a second, turned around, and ran away!

Qin Jiang: “?!”

Everyone: “……?!”

"Stop right there!"

"I don't!"

Su Cheng ran around the arena.

How could Qin Jiang possibly outrun him?

Qin Jiang chased after him with a knife in hand, but couldn't catch up with him and was furious with Su Cheng.

Xiao Duye frowned.

He had bet five thousand taels on Qin Jiang to win. Just now, Su Cheng's weapon fell into Qin Jiang's hands, and he was excited that the opportunity to turn defeat into victory had come.

Who would have thought... that Su Cheng, this scoundrel, would simply not accept the challenge!

Is there such a martial arts competition? Can you have some shame? Su Cheng ran away! Qin Jiang chased him with a howl ! Finally, Qin Jiang couldn't chase him anymore. He used his knife to support his body and gasped for breath.

Su Cheng didn't blush or feel nervous, and it seemed that he could still run a hundred or eighty laps.

There is no way to go on like this, I will be exhausted.

Qin Jiang touched the jade ring.

Wei Ting's eyes turned cold.

The old marquis asked, "Wait, what's in Qin Jiang's hand?"

Qin Canglan's face darkened: "Hidden weapon!"

Swoosh! Qin Jiang shot a silver needle at Su Cheng.

The silver needle penetrated Su Cheng's armor and passed by his shoulder blade!

Su Cheng was stunned.

Shit! What was that just now? "Qin Jiang used a hidden weapon!" An official stood up in shock.

Isn't this too insidious? Is it possible to use hidden weapons in such an open and aboveboard duel?

Of course, there are also people who agree with Qin Jiang's approach.

After all, it wasn't made clear at the beginning that hidden weapons could not be used.

The old marquis gritted his teeth: "Despicable!"

Emperor Jingxuan said nothing.

It seems to be the default.

Princess Jingning frowned.

Su Cheng had no weapon in his hand and had kept some distance from Qin Jiang, which was the best time for Qin Jiang to launch a sneak attack.

Qin Jiang did not give Su Cheng any chance to react and shot the third silver needle in the jade ring at Su Cheng.

The angle was extremely tricky and Su Cheng couldn't dodge it in time. After a scream, he covered his chest and fell down.

The scene was quiet again, and the entire grassland was silent.

Su Cheng, who seemed to be confident of victory just now, fell down as soon as he was told to.

Qin Jiang dragged his tired legs and walked towards Su Cheng step by step.

Su Cheng looked at him in great pain.

It seemed that the drug was taking effect. Qin Jiang curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction and evil, and squatted on one knee beside Su Cheng.

"Su Cheng, you still lose in the end..."

Qin Jiang froze in the middle of his words.

Su Cheng on the ground suddenly raised his hand and thrust the hidden weapon, which was intact in his palm, into Qin Jiang's neck! 　The big fat chapter is coming, dears, let's vote for the monthly ticket! 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
