The match between Wang Qingqiao and Yue Xiaorou was a battle without any suspense. Wang Qingqiao, who had already lost all his fighting spirit, was knocked off the stage by Yue Xiaorou in just half a cup of tea. He was in no mood to watch the rest of the match and left dejectedly.
The fourth match was between the eldest grandson Jun and the grandfather Sun Di.
It is said that since the eldest grandson Jun defeated Yue Xiaorou with one move yesterday, Gongsun Di had little chance of winning, but this guy was quite stubborn. The day before yesterday, the disciples of the Sword Refining Pavilion and the Sword Guarding Pavilion gathered to make trouble, and Gongsun Di was one of the instigators. He knew that making trouble was actually more beneficial to the Sword Refining Pavilion, and the number of places that the Sword Guarding Pavilion could win would not be more than that of the Sword Refining Pavilion, but he originally hoped that more people from the Sword Refining Pavilion would participate in the competition, so that he could defeat more disciples of the Sword Refining Pavilion on the field, and let Qiu Jian regret not choosing him to join the Sword Refining Pavilion!
Lost to the disciple of Yaoge? Before yesterday, Gongsun Di had never thought that this was possible!
Before going on stage, Gongsun Di walked in front of his eldest grandson Zijun, controlled his facial muscles, and made a contemptuous expression. He provoked, "Even if you beat Junior Sister Yue yesterday, don't be complacent! Junior Sister Yue lost because she didn't know how to restrain her edge, and this is the strength of my disciples of the Sword Guarding Pavilion! Don't cry when you lose to me later!"
——It's not that Gongsun Di really looked down on his eldest grandson Jun. On the contrary, he was a more cautious person. However, the provocation before the battle was actually a strategy. For sword cultivators, the unity of man and sword, and how much power they can exert, have a lot to do with their state of mind. If the two people's strength is not much different, it is very likely that the difference in state of mind will lead to the success or failure of the competition.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, looked at him and said, "Oh."
Gongsun Di: “…”
Just an "oh" and that was it? He said so many words, but the eldest grandson Jun only said one word?
Gongsun Di refused to give up and continued to speak harshly, intending to make his eldest grandson Junchan waver. He said, "The sword skills I practiced are specifically designed to restrain you! Did you see how I defeated Jin Cheng yesterday? Are you afraid?"
The eldest grandson, Jun, said: “I didn’t see it.”
Gongsun Di: “…”
He was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood! Didn't you see? I beat you so hard, and you said you didn't see it? What are you doing with your eyes? !
Gongsun Di said, "You...you...you are lying! How could you not watch my game?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly came to his senses. It was impossible for Zhangsun Zijun not to watch his game. The reason he said that was to disturb his state of mind first! He must not be fooled!
Gongsun Di sneered: "If you hadn't watched my match, you would have regretted it! You missed a chance to understand a strong man, otherwise you might not have lost so badly!"
The eldest grandson, Jun, ignored him and looked up at the clock. Why haven't you started yet? How boring!
He hadn't thought of putting any psychological pressure on Gongsun Di, as he wouldn't put in any effort to deal with such an opponent. However, his attitude of ignoring him made Gongsun Di more nervous than any harsh words.
Gongsun Di put his hands on his hips and laughed twice, but his laughter turned out to be extremely dry: "Haha! I have prepared a special trick for you. Do you want to know what it is? It is a trick that no one has ever used in the sword fighting competition in the past thousand years! When you lose, you will feel honored!"
The eldest grandson Jun showed a little interest: "Oh? Oh."
Gong Sundi: "..." He was almost choking on blood. You'll die if you give me some face!!! I've prepared a lot of words, ask me, ask me, ask me what my secret weapon is! I will definitely tell you!!
Finally, the bell rang, and the eldest grandson, Jun, was the first to go up to the sword-practicing field. His steps were light and his mood was extremely relaxed.
Gongsun Di also walked up, but his steps were extremely heavy, and his mood was evident. He had just intended to disrupt his opponent, but his opponent was not disrupted, and he himself was the first to be disrupted.
"Junior Brother Changsun, please give me some advice."
"please."
Today's opponent is no longer a woman. After the two greeted each other, the eldest grandson Zijun was not polite at all. His sword popped out of the scabbard and automatically fell into his hand. At the same time, the disciples who were watching all felt a chilling sword aura!
"Wow!" The disciples exclaimed and talked about it.
"Chang Sun Zijun is really amazing! Will Gong Sun Di be defeated by him in one move like Yue Xiaorou?"
"It's better not to. I want to see more moves from my eldest grandson Junzi, but I didn't see any yesterday!"
Gongsun Di was trembling. He was not frightened by the sword power of his eldest grandson, Jun, but felt uneasy from the bottom of his heart. He did not dare to delay at all, and quickly drew his sword and stood in front of him, silently reciting the sword technique. In just a moment, golden light suddenly shone around him!
The crowd immediately started to boil over again: "A body of gold and stone! Oh my god, has Gongsun Di gone crazy?"
After Gongsun Di came on stage, he immediately used his ultimate sword-repairing skill - Body of Gold and Stone!
The so-called Metal Body condenses the sword energy of the sword cultivator into a barrier that can offset any magic. This barrier is naturally not infallible. Every time a cultivator who uses the Metal Body is attacked, his body-protecting sword energy will be eliminated. When his sword energy is exhausted, he will no longer have the power to resist. Such a great trick is rarely seen in normal times. Ordinary cultivators will only use it in two situations - first, when they are desperate to save their lives; second, when they are surrounded by enemies and use it to defend their territory.
One hundred years ago, the Tianming Sect was besieged by demons. Seeing that the enemy was approaching in force and reinforcements would take three days to arrive, the elders of the sect, in order to protect the sect, collectively used their bodies of gold and stone, using all their skills to make the entire mountain resist all sword energy and magic. Finally, they held out for three days and waited for reinforcements to repel the demons.
However, in the thousand-year history of Tianjianmen, Gongsun Di was the first to use the Stone Body in a sword duel. The reason was simple: the Stone Body was only a life-saving trick, and sword duels were always limited to a certain extent and did not hurt anyone.
Elder Wan Jin of Xiujian Pavilion, who was sitting on a high seat watching the match, burst out laughing: "Elder Lin, your beloved disciple... I'm afraid this match won't be finished today."
Lin Zhen's face was filled with shame, he turned his head away and said nothing.
Qiu Jian snorted, expressing his dissatisfaction with the current situation.
Since the sword competition is not a fight for life, Gongsun Di's use of the Stone Body can only delay time, but cannot reverse the outcome. As long as Zhangsun Zijun attacks slowly, there will always be a time to break his body protection. When using the Stone Body, Gongsun Di is like turning into a piece of gold and stone, unable to attack the opponent. The so-called life-saving trick is actually just to buy time and wait for reinforcements.
The eldest grandson Zijun tried to throw a sword at Gongsun Di, but his sword was bounced back as soon as it touched the golden light around Gongsun Di.
The eldest grandson Zijun raised his eyebrows, stopped attacking, stroked his chin and began to think.
Gongsun Di, who was in the center of the golden light, had his five senses sealed off. He didn't know what was happening in the outside world, but he could feel the attacks from the outside world. He noticed that Changsun Zijun had only made a small attempt, so he didn't attack him again. In fact, he had only threatened to use his ultimate move, but he panicked and actually used it. He was worried that he had said a lot, but in the end, Changsun Zijun would knock him down with one move, which was too embarrassing. Now that he found himself petrified, it was even more embarrassing, but he had already used it and couldn't regret it.
The eldest grandson Zijun was a little annoyed. He could win, there was no doubt about it, as long as he had the patience to slowly break Gongsun Di's body protection. If he used all his strength, one hour would be enough. But now Gongsun Di had entered the state of gold and stone, and attacking him was like hitting a stone. Fighting a stone for an hour? He was too lazy to do it. - To be honest, if there was no blood feud and they had to kill you, few people would be willing to spend a long time to break a stone.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, thought for a moment, but couldn't think of a better solution. He suddenly frowned and looked at Yi Xichen who was watching on the sidelines: "Go away."
"Ah?" Yi Xichen was suddenly called out and startled, "Should I move away?"
The eldest grandson, Zijun, nodded and said, "Move a hundred meters away, until I can no longer see you."
This was the first time that a contestant in a fencing competition had made a request to someone outside the arena without considering his opponent. Yi Xichen didn't understand why, but he turned around and left after listening to his eldest grandson Zijun.
In an instant, the disciples around the ground followed Yi Xichen and retreated several feet away like a tide!
The eldest grandson, Zijun, is about to use his ultimate move! This must be the case! That’s why he told his friends to stay away! He’s afraid of hurting Yi Xichen! I should run as well! —This is what all the disciples present thought.
The eldest grandson, Jun, looked around at the rapidly dispersing crowd in bewilderment. He just wanted the blood that had accumulated somewhere to return to his head, so why were these people running?
However, the disciples did not retreat too far, and some of them simply flew into the sky with their swords. They were also very curious about what the eldest grandson Jun was going to do, and even if there was a risk of getting hurt, they couldn't help but watch the game.
Not long after Yi Xichen left, the eldest grandson Zijun's eyes suddenly lit up, and his sword flew back into its scabbard. Then, he strode towards Gongsun Di.
Everyone held their breath and watched his movements.
Qiu Jian, who was sitting on a high seat, suddenly became excited. He was originally very dissatisfied with Gongsun Di's behavior. For the people of Lianjian Pavilion who always rushed forward, delaying time was simply shameless! But now he suddenly realized that if he wanted to break Gongsun Di's iron body as soon as possible, Changsun Zijun would have to do his best, so... Gongsun Di's move was really well used!
In a blink of an eye, the eldest grandson, Jun, had walked into the center of the golden light and stood in front of the stone statue-like Gongsun Di. He restrained his sword energy and did not attack at all, so Gongsun Di's body-protecting sword energy did not reject him.
The next moment, the eldest grandson, Jun, picked up Gongsun Di and threw him off the sword-practicing ground like a stone.
Bang!
A human-shaped pit was smashed into the ground outside the stadium.
Everyone: “…”
There were hundreds of people present! No one thought that this battle could be treated as such a joke! Such a joke!!!
Although the swordsman, whose body was protected by metal and stone, was invulnerable to swords and spears, fire and water, he was not born with the land. The eldest grandson Jun couldn't hurt him, and he didn't want to waste his energy to fight him slowly, so he didn't hurt him, but moved his position gently, right? Anyway, the rules of the sword competition were that as long as the opponent was knocked out of the field, he would win.
Except for the eldest grandson Jun, no one had thought of such an obvious shortcoming. Because they were all arrogant swordsmen who only thought about how to defeat the opponent with their swords, and they would never consider putting aside the swords and directly rolling up their sleeves to fight like a child!
The whole audience fell silent again, and no one spoke for a long time.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, stood in the middle of the field and waited for a moment. He looked up at the elders without listening to the announcement of the result and said calmly, "Did I win?"
After another long silence, Qiu Jian's bitter voice came down: "The eldest...grandson Jun...succeeds."
