Chapter 167 Entering the Arena In the wooden shed. Zhao Hu grinned at Jiang Ning, his face full of provocation and pride. Then he looked at Li Qing behind Jiang Ning, who also had a smug look on her face and was grinning with her gums showing. seems to be saying. Look! I, Zhao Hu, did the same! Then, Zhao Hu looked at Wang Jin. "Master, I have to go over there!" As he spoke, Zhao Hu pointed in the direction of the Liu family. "Why go there?" Wang Jin asked.
Zhao Hu said: "I promised Liu Zhaonan of the Liu family that if he wins the position of captain, I will join his team." "I see!" Wang Jin nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead!" at this time. thump— The drums sounded like thunder in the parade ground. "Next, let's announce the process of the competition for the team leader." "Let's go out together!" Wang Jin gave the order after hearing this. "Let's go out too!" Yu Yuan on the side also spoke up. next moment. Everyone came out of the wooden shed. At this time, there were fewer onlookers around the parade ground. Because it was noon, not only was the sun very strong, but it was also lunchtime. When everyone came out of the wooden shed, they saw that the man who presided over the test was still on the stage. There were still a lot of crowded people around the bottom of the ring. The man who was conducting the test glanced down and announced again. "Fight for the position of team leader, the rules are simple!" "With the seventh rank in martial arts, you can obtain the position of team leader without taking any assessments." "As for the others?" The man glanced at the audience again and said, "Go up on stage as the champion and fight until no one comes up to challenge you within an incense stick. Then you will be promoted to the team leader." Hear these words.
Wang Jin, who had just walked out of the wooden shed and came to the bottom of the ring, couldn't help but frown. "Such an outrageous rule?" "It's indeed a bit outrageous!" Jiang Ning nodded. Zhou Xing also frowned: "Unless you are absolutely invincible, luck and connections will play too big a role in this kind of rule!" "Do you two still want to compete for the leading position in this team?" Wang Jin asked. "Master Wang, I want to take a look first!" Zhou Xing replied. "Where are you, kid?" Wang Jin looked at Jiang Ning. "Let's take a look first!" Jiang Ning continued, "Based on the results of the assessment just now, there should be more vacancies for the captain position than the number of hands." at this time. The man on the ring added another sentence. "Oh, I forgot to tell you that I only have fifteen spots for you as team leaders!" "I know that some people still want to participate in the competition for the position of deputy commander later, but the prerequisite for participation is that you have to seize the position of the leader of this team." When the voice fell. "I'll go first!" A loud voice suddenly rang out from below the ring. next moment. A pale and thin man jumped up from the crowd and flew several feet into the air. boom-- Then he fell heavily on the ring. "It's him!" Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed. This person was the one who impressed him the most today. The man who presided over the assessment was called Xiao Bo Ye. This shows his transcendent status. At the same time, he is the owner of innate supernatural powers. Looking at the entire training ground, this person is also a more troublesome existence in Jiang Ning's eyes. The reason why it is not the most difficult one is that above this young master, there are two participants of the seventh rank of martial arts on the training ground. Jiang Ning, a seventh-grade martial artist, knew from just fighting with Liu Qingsong that the strength of a seventh-grade martial artist was normally much higher than that of an eighth-grade martial artist. The change in strength brought about by being one grade higher is naturally a little more pressure than that brought by He Jinyun, the young uncle who was born with supernatural powers. The direction of the three major families in Luoshui County.
"Cao Zijian, aren't you going up?" "Do you think I'm stupid?" Cao Zijian glanced at Liu Zhaonan beside him, and then continued: "This young master has an unattainable status, and the strength he just showed is also extremely outstanding. Why would I compete with him for the position of team leader?" "There are still a dozen seats left. What's the harm in giving him one?" Liu Zhaonan, who was standing by, couldn't help but smile faintly when he heard this. "Brother Cao is right. Since you won't go, then I won't go either!" At this time, those who were competing for the position of team leader in the training ground all had similar ideas. Especially the students of Wuyuan, no one would even think of going up to the ring to compete with He Jinyun. In the Wuyuan branch where they were, He Jinyun had just entered the eighth rank a few months ago, and he was already ranked at least in the top three in the branch. And now, they don’t know how far He Jinyun has reached in the realm of divine power. But they knew that He Jinyun must be much stronger than he was a few months ago. Because He Jinyun is the young master in the Earl's Mansion. As the young master of the Earl's Mansion, he had no shortage of resources for the early stages of martial arts, let alone ordinary natural treasures. A few months was enough for He Jinyun to make sufficient progress in reaching the eighth level of martial arts. After a stick of incense. "Boring!" He Jinyun took the silver identity token handed over by the man hosting the assessment, then muttered something and jumped off the stage. "Who else wants to come up?" The man said to the people below after handing over the token in his hand. At this moment, there was silence below the ring, and then a man jumped up from the crowd. This person was wearing a luxurious black gilded robe and landed lightly on the stage. "It's Qin Xuan!" someone spoke in the crowd. "This man in our Wuyuan is even better than Young Master He Jinyun a few months ago!" "." As everyone in Wuyuan started discussing. The eighth-rank expert, who originally had some ideas, immediately suppressed the urge in his heart. the other side. "This Wuyuan student is so strong!" Zhou Xing said with emotion. Wang Jin said, "It's only natural that Wuyuan's students are strong! After all, Wuyuan is another institution founded by Daxia Wusheng!" “It has hundreds of years of history and heritage!” Wang Jin then comforted him, "But you don't have to underestimate yourself. The martial arts resources they enjoy are much better than the two of you. Naturally, their strength is ahead of yours now!"
Jiang Ning also smiled: "Master is right!" And so, another stick of incense passed. Still no one came up to challenge Qin Xuan. Qin Xuan took the team's silver identity token and left the field. "Liu Sansheng, thank you all for your guidance!" Liu Sansheng spoke impatiently and bowed to the people below. at the same time. The few people Liu Sansheng had arranged below were also talking loudly. "It's Liu Sansheng who's on stage this time?" "He's so anxious to get on stage, it seems Liu Sansheng is very confident!" "Of course, he has already entered the eighth level of martial arts, and he is also the eldest son of the Liu family. He will most likely become the head of the Liu family in the future. The martial arts resources he enjoys now must be extraordinary!" "If that's the case, then Liu Sansheng's strength should be quite strong!" "That's inevitable!!" "." As these people's discussions spread. Zhou Xing couldn't help but complain: "Another strong man in the divine power realm, this martial arts garden is a bit too bullying!" Jiang Ning smiled at this time: "Brother Zhou Xing, do you think that these people who are talking loudly were arranged in advance by Liu Sansheng on the stage?" Zhou Xing's eyes suddenly lit up. "Junior Brother Jiang Ning, do you mean that this person is bluffing?" "It's possible!" Jiang Ning nodded slightly. "That makes sense!" Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Ning with sudden enlightenment. the other side. He Jinyun looked at Liu Sansheng on the stage and sneered at Qin Xuan beside him. "This Liu Sansheng is really good at taking advantage of others. He took advantage of our power to get on stage and even sent people to bluff!" Qin Xuan shook his head: "He is just taking shortcuts. This Liu Sansheng clearly does not have the self-confidence that you and I have. It seems that his strength has not been transformed!" "That should be it!" He Jinyun nodded, then sighed, "It's a pity that I went on stage early, otherwise I would have made him understand what strength is when I went on stage." suddenly. "Damn it——" A bald man shouted angrily, then fell heavily on the ring. "You martial arts students all know how to brag. Let me see if you really have the ability!"
Under the ring. "Hehe!" He Jinyun laughed, "Now we're going to have a good show! It can happen once or twice, but not three times! It seems that Liu Sansheng's appearance has made this eighth-rank expert in Luoshui County lose his patience." Qin Xuan said: "It depends on whether he can win. If he can't win, it will be a huge loss of face." at this time. Zhou Xing looked towards the arena in front of him with serious eyes. "This man is called Fu Shiquan, and he is the number one escort of the Changfeng Escort Agency." "Not only does this person possess the strength of an eighth-grade martial artist, he also has a wealth of combat experience! Even I have no confidence that I can handle him!" "I don't know if he can defeat Liu Sansheng from Wuyuan if he goes on stage." next moment. The two of them said no more and started fighting directly. The weapon used by Fu Shiquan was a long iron stick, while the weapon used by Liu Sansheng was a long sword. As soon as Fu Shiquan made a move, the long iron stick in his hand made a series of tiger roaring sounds, full of momentum. "This is the Eighteen Demon Subduing Sticks!" Zhou Xing explained, "It is said that this is a lower-level martial art from Buddhism! There are eighteen sticks in total!" “If it is perfected, the power of one stick will be stronger than the other. If he can swing it smoothly, it will have the power of eighteen sticks.” "The last stick is powerful enough to split a mountain. In Fu Shiquan's hands, only a seventh-rank warrior can defeat him!" at this time. Fu Shiquan also used the fine iron stick in his hand to the extreme, and the shadows of the stick overlapped, covering more than ten feet in front of him. The force of the stick was as powerful as a surging flood wave, leaving Liu Sansheng no chance to breathe. With this move, Fu Shiquan exerted his full strength without any reservation. At this moment, Liu Sansheng's face changed slightly and he retreated again and again. Faced with this powerful iron staff, he did not dare to confront it head-on, and could only rely on the sword in his hand to resist and pull it. "It looks like Liu Sansheng has won!" Qin Xuan spoke from the audience. at this time. Liu Sansheng, who had been retreating continuously, suddenly stopped retreating and moved forward instead. The long sword in his hand was as fast as thunder and as quick as the aurora. whoosh- The air wave was suddenly split at the sword's edge. "Let go——" Liu Sansheng shouted softly. The fine iron stick in Fu Shiquan's hand was knocked away.
At this time, Fu Shiquan's hands were covered in blood. "Thank you!" Liu Sansheng put away his sword, stood up and bowed. "I lost!" Fu Shiquan said with a frustrated look on his face. Leaving these words behind, he turned and walked to the edge of the ring. Then he leaped towards the bottom of the ring, announcing his end. Under the ring. Zhou Xing had a serious expression on his face: "This Liu Sansheng's swordsmanship is too exquisite! Especially that sword that was as powerful as thunder. I didn't react at all! If I were to go on stage, I would be no different from Fu Shiquan, or even worse than him!" Jiang Ning nodded casually, his eyes falling on Liu Sansheng who was in high spirits on the stage. Do you want to go on stage now? He was thinking about this question in his mind at the moment. After watching the confrontation between Liu Sansheng and Fu Shiquan, he knew that Liu Sansheng's strength was far inferior to his own. Facing Liu Sansheng, he only needs one strike of the sword to defeat him. I pondered for a long time. "Forget it!" Jiang Ning said to himself, then shook his head. Although because of what happened before, he was somewhat unhappy with Liu Sansheng. But thinking of Xiao Doubao and Jiang Yiming, Jiang Ning decided to let Liu Sansheng go and not stop him from winning the team championship. And at this time. Liu Sansheng on the ring said nothing and waited quietly for time to pass. With the previous experience of Fu Shiquan, no one wanted to challenge Liu Sansheng anymore. Because Liu Sansheng defeated Fu Shiquan without any injury, he has proved his strength and that he is qualified to take the position of team leader. There are still enough team vacancies in the future, so there is no need to take the risk of fighting with Liu Sansheng to compete for the current team vacancies. After all, if they lose, they will completely lose the qualification to compete for the team's main position. So everyone felt that there was no need to compete with Liu Sansheng. As for the students of Wuyuan, they would not go on stage. Because the patrol guards are like cattle and horses! And the team leader is the one in power! So before coming here, they had already set a rule not to fight each other unless necessary. In the blink of an eye. Just a stick of incense passed. Liu Sansheng took the silver token that symbolized his status as a team leader from the man who presided over the assessment, and his face immediately lit up with joy.
Subsequently. He turned and looked at the people below the ring, and soon found Jiang Ning in the crowd. Liu Sansheng jumped down from the stage and went straight to Jiang Ning. "Brother Ning, did you see it?" Liu Sansheng raised the silver token in his hand that represented the team's identity. Then Liu Sansheng continued: "Now I am the captain of the inspection office. Since your elder brother has entrusted me before, then you can come under my command! As the captain, I will definitely take care of you!" Faced with the power that Jiang Ning had just displayed, Liu Sansheng was also very greedy. Any captain can have nine patrol guards under his command. However, the patrol guards are basically ninth-rank warriors. If they were assigned by higher-ups, some would be strong and some would be weak. It’s different if you find it yourself. If only we could recruit a patrol guard like Jiang Ning who is both young and possesses eighth-grade divine power. In this way, the stronger the team is, the higher the captain's status will naturally be. So after seeing the power displayed by Jiang Ning just now, Liu Sansheng realized that he had misjudged him and had already set his sights on Jiang Ning. "No!" Facing Liu Sansheng's recruitment, Jiang Ning shook his head. "Why?" Liu Sansheng said, "Brother Ning, your sister-in-law is my sister, so we are a family! You joining my army is a powerful alliance! I will definitely not treat you unfairly! I can even marry my cousin to you, making the relationship even closer!" When Liu Sansheng saw Jiang Ning refuse, he immediately offered what he considered to be generous treatment. Jiang Ning sneered when he heard this. Then he said, "Because of me! I also want to fight for the position of team leader!" The words fell. Jiang Ning stomped the ground with his right foot. boom-- His figure suddenly flew into the air, and as if he had no inertia in the air, he suddenly turned back and swept towards the ring!
