Chapter 17: First Victory with Xu Qingwan
He staggered his feet up and down, his left palm swung, his right palm changed from poking to cutting, and he exerted force with his five fingers, grabbing Wei Changtian's shoulder fiercely.
Generally speaking, when faced with such a move, stepping back and dodging is the best option.
However, Wei Changtian seemed to be a little distracted, and as soon as he hesitated, Song Minglin grabbed his shoulder blade.
The latter was overjoyed. He exerted force with his right hand and took another step closer, while at the same time raising his left elbow to hit Wei Changtian's chest.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound echoed between the two of them. Although the elbow did not have much force, it was a solid hit.
The corners of Song Minglin's mouth curled up slightly, but the smile froze in the next second.
The expected scene of Wei Changtian falling to the ground in pain did not occur. Instead, his right hand was suddenly clamped tightly, making him unable to move.
"What?"
Looking at Wei Changtian's pale face, Song Minglin felt something was wrong and subconsciously wanted to keep his distance.
But at this moment, his left elbow, which he had not yet withdrawn, was suddenly grabbed by Wei Changtian, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free.
At the moment, the two of them seemed to be tied together by an invisible rope, but in order to lure his opponent into the trap, Wei Changtian was enduring incomparable pain.
Damn it! This is the only way to win or lose!
With his eyes closed, all his remaining internal strength surged up, and Wei Changtian actually violently rammed Song Minglin with his head.
"Grass!"
Song Minglin had never seen this kind of fighting style before, but he was not a weak person. He knew that he could not dodge at this moment, so he simply gritted his teeth and turned his head to charge back.
"Bang!!!"
The two men's foreheads collided with each other with a loud bang. The people in the audience stared at the scene in amazement, as if even their heartbeats stopped for a beat.
Although this battle was not very exciting, it was not of very high quality.
But it was tragic enough.
Looking at the figure whose clothes were stained with blood and whose body was covered with wounds, many people truly felt a sense of awe for Wei Changtian for the first time.
It has nothing to do with Wei Xianzhi or the Wei family.
It was just because of this courage that allowed him to still desperately want to win after losing 58 games in a row...
On stage.
In the splattering blood, two figures staggered apart.
Wei Changtian covered his right shoulder tightly, his bent body trembling constantly, and beads of cold sweat dripped down his pale cheek.
As for Song Minglin...
“Plop!”
“…”
"Wei, Young Master Wei won?"
Someone asked this question, but no one answered.
Everyone stared with their eyes wide open in shock, and the entire martial arts hall fell silent for a moment.
"cough!"
Wei Changtian coughed up a mouthful of blood foam, then dragged his heavy feet to the "scoreboard". His internal force penetrated his fingers, mixed with the blood of an unknown person, and slowly carved the first horizontal bar after the word "Victory".
Looking back at the audience, it was only then that everyone came back to their senses as if awakened from a dream, and deafening cheers immediately resounded throughout the Xuan Jing Division.
…
"Sir, there are no injuries to the bones or muscles, but the blood clots are quite severe."
In a corner of the stage, Wang Er had already checked Wei Changtian's injuries, and his expression was a little conflicted: "I think we should forget about the last game."
"It's okay, it's time to fight."
Wei Changtian was in a very happy mood at the moment. Although he was in great pain all over his body, his tone was very relaxed.
After playing more than fifty games, I finally won one!
Although the seventh rank is better than the eighth rank, and although it hurts the enemy by a thousand and loses eight hundred of your own men... but winning is still winning.
More importantly, this means that my training method is really effective, and I will only win more and more in the future!
Thinking of this, he instantly became full of energy. He threw a bunch of pills into his mouth and began to close his eyes to adjust his state.
Wei Changtian was actively preparing for the battle, but his opponent in the final match was very nervous at this moment.
This man is a good friend of Song Minglin and he knows very well that he is weaker than Song Minglin.
And now that Song Minglin has been defeated, then wouldn't I...
Not necessarily. After all, Wei Changtian already looked too exhausted to fight again...if he hadn't taken those pills.
The more he thought about it, the more conflicted he became. He wanted to give it a try, but he was afraid that in the end not only would he not make any money, but he would also end up getting hurt.
Just at this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"Twenty taels, sell the red sign to me."
"ah?"
The man turned his head and smiled: "Mr. Xu, what are you doing..."
"Sell it or not?"
"Uh... Mr. Xu, someone was willing to pay fifty taels for this lot, but I refused to sell it..."
"Oh, forget it then."
"…Sell! I'll sell!"
…
A quarter of an hour later.
Wei Changtian looked up and down at the person opposite him, his expression somewhat surprised.
He was not surprised why the person was changed, but was simply curious that an organization like Xuan Jingsi could have such a beautiful woman working there.
This face, this waist, these legs...wait a minute!
Hair tied with a red string, eyes like stars, lips like willow leaves...
A name suddenly popped into my mind.
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, then he asked tentatively, not quite daring to believe it: "Xu Qingwan?"
The woman's expression remained unchanged as she said calmly, "Master Wei, do you know my name?"
“…I have heard of this.”
Wei Changtian forced a smile, but his heart was actually in turmoil.
Xu Qingwan! The most capable heroine in the novel! !
Unlike Lu Jingyao, Xu Qingwan only appeared in the middle period. She got acquainted with Xiao Feng because of a case. Later, due to a coincidence, she became completely disappointed with Xuan Jingsi and turned to follow Xiao Feng!
However, her ending was more miserable than Lu Jingyao's. In the end, she died in order to save Xiao Feng, uh... under a palm strike from Wei Xianzhi.
Judging from the timeline, it will take a long time before Xu Qingwan meets Xiao Feng for the first time.
I hadn't thought that far ahead, but now that the person has come to my door, I must intercept him again!
After making up his mind, Wei Changtian was no longer in a hurry to fight and decided to communicate his feelings first.
But before he could say anything, Xu Qingwan spoke first.
"Mr. Wei, you helped me win three hundred taels of silver. Thank you."
“…”
Wei Changtian didn't expect this. He looked at the grief-stricken person who opened the market below the stage and said with a smile: "You're welcome... Is this what Miss Xu wanted to say when she came up to the stage?"
Xu Qingwan shook her head: "No, I want to tell you that you are no longer suitable for another fight in your current condition."
Hmm? What does this mean? Could it be that this woman is attracted to me? She is afraid that my injury will get worse, so she came here to relieve me?
Wei Changtian was delighted when he heard this, and hurriedly confirmed: "So Miss Xu is not going to fight me?"
"Um."
Xu Qingwan nodded, but stretched out her hand: "But you have to give me the fifty taels of silver note, and I don't want the record of merit either. I want another fifty taels of silver, a total of one hundred taels."
“…”
Wei Changtian was stunned. After a long while, he asked, "Miss Xu...are you short of money?"
"Yes."
Xu Qingwan did not hide it and looked straight at Wei Changtian: "So I will definitely take this money. If you insist, you can fight. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
"Well, whether to fight or not is another matter."
Wei Changtian suddenly came up with an idea, raised his head and looked back with a smile.
"Miss Xu, if you need money so much... I have a good job here."
"It's easy money and a lot of money, would you consider it?"
