Everyone came to the Ning family's martial arts arena. Ning Zhuo originally wanted to rent the martial arts arena in Fire Persimmon City, but Zhou Zeshen said there was no need to spend the unjust money. There is no need to rush to the Zhou family, why not just have a small sparring session at the Ning family's martial arts arena. This statement made Ning Zhuo look at Zhou Zeshen, and he felt thoughtful. Ning Yong immediately stood up, raised his hand and said, "Then I'll go contact the family's martial arts arena first." Seeing Ning Zhuo nodding, Ning Yong ran out of the courtyard excitedly. Zhou Zeshen smiled and suggested: "Big gambling hurts your health, small gambling makes you happy. Brother Ning, why don't we gamble on something." Ning Zhuo also smiled and said, "It seems that Brother Zhou was already prepared before coming here." Zhou Zeshen spread his hands: "Brother Ning saw it, and I thought about it, I can't come to visit you empty-handed, right? I just brought this." With that said, Zhou Zeshen took out a crossbow from his storage belt. This crossbow is very small, only 30% larger than an adult's hand. It has a delicate structure and is made of bronze.
It is worth noting that it does not have a traditional arrow nest, but is replaced by a small rectangular wooden box. "This is a riveted shooting crossbow. After some improvements by me, it is quite powerful." Zhou Zeshen showed a confident smile, "Brother Ning, if you win, I will give this to you, and it will also come with the mechanism blueprint." Ning Zhuo's heart moved, and he took out a monkey with a mechanism: "If you win, I will give it to you, along with the corresponding mechanism drawings. What I'm worried about is that I won't be able to give it away." "Hahaha." The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time. Ning Yong came back soon and said breathlessly that he had booked a T-shaped martial arts arena. Everyone immediately left the small courtyard and came to the martial arts arena in groups. The offshoot monk in charge of the martial arts field was respectful and enthusiastic towards Ning Zhuo, and asked what kind of battlefield was needed. Ning Zhuo looked at Zhou Zeshen. Zhou Zeshen said: "Our place is full of mountains, so it's a mountainous area." As a result, several magic formations in the martial arts arena were activated one after another. On the originally flat ground, countless red soil immediately turned up and piled higher and higher. As if there was an invisible force, the red soil was molded into two small hills, the height of which was much higher than the family wall of the Ning family land. This is not the end. The power of the wooden rows acts on the hills, causing the grass and trees on the hills to mature in a dozen breaths, forming a dense mountain forest. A dark cloud gathered and floated over the battlefield, casting heavy rain along the way. A large amount of water flowed out of thin air, forming a small river between the two hills. According to Zhou Zeshen's request, the covering array was not used in the martial arts arena. Such a big movement quickly attracted other Ning family members. After the introduction by Ning Zhuo’s classmates, everyone quickly understood the situation.
"Master Ning Zhuo is going to compete with Zhou Zeshen, the genius of the Zhou family!" "Why?" "It was Zhou Zeshen who took the initiative to ask for discussion." "It's bad, Zhou Zeshen is a sinister guy at first sight. Could it be that Young Master Ning Zhuo has been plotted by him? Does Zhou Zeshen want to use my Ning Zhuo to become famous?" "Ahem, that's a bit much. Zhou Zeshen has become famous a long time ago, much earlier than Master Ning Zhuo." "Didn't you see that the two of them were communicating well? They were both smiling." "It's going to be bad. I've heard that this Zhou Zeshen has a lot of talent, and he must have been cultivated by his family for a long time. But although Young Master Ning Zhuo has talent, it has not been detected yet. How to fight this?" "Master Ning Zhuo, stand up!" "We all support you!!" More and more people from the Ning family gathered together. After discussing for a while, they all shouted and cheered for Ning Zhuo. Ning Zhuo waved and greeted everyone, causing everyone to cheer and shout even louder. After the battlefield was set up, Ning Zhuo and Zhou Zeshen entered the martial arts arena at the same time. Each chose a hilltop to stand on and faced each other. Zhou Zeshen sent a message: "Brother Ning, please." Ning Zhuo said: "Brother Zhou is a guest, so you should invite me first." "Okay, then I'll show my shame." Zhou Zeshen patted his storage belt and released ten trap-drilling rats. The Mechanical Drilling Rat is very fast and very agile, and can move through dense mountain forests with ease. Every machine rat has a mana string attached to its body. As the distance between the machine rat and Zhou Zeshen lengthened, the mana string also continued to lengthen, becoming elegant and stable. Ning Zhuo also slapped his belt and took out five explosive monkeys. He also used mana to lift the string to control it, making the machine monkey fly and jump among the branches and leaves. After all, the scope of the martial arts field is limited. The speed of the two agencies was not slow, and they soon met at the foot of the mountain where Ning Zhuo was. The front end of the machine rat is a spiral drill bit, which is very sharp. If it hits the machine monkey, it can drill a hole. The mechanism monkey itself is much larger and more powerful than the mechanism rat. Their movements are quite flexible and they can cooperate with each other, quickly gaining the upper hand. Bang bang bang... Zhou Zeshen's magic threads are connected to the tips of his ten fingers. After the confrontation, his fingertips trembled slightly for three consecutive times, and the mana string broke. This means that he lost three trap-drilling rats in succession! Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Ze reached out and clasped his ten fingers inward, and the remaining seven machine rats retreated at the same time. "Okay!" The Ning family members who were watching the battle cheered loudly. Just now, their view was greatly obscured by woods. Moreover, there were many trap rats and monkeys, and the battle scene was chaotic, making it difficult for everyone to distinguish.
Now, as Zhou Zeshen's mechanical rats retreated, the two sides were separated, and everyone could see clearly. Zhou Zeshen's side lost three mechanical rats, Ning Zhuo's side had almost no losses, only one explosive mechanical monkey fell behind in the pursuit. Obviously, its mechanical thigh was damaged, affecting its mobility. In the first wave of tentative confrontation, Zhou Zeshen decisively retreated, wanting the mechanical rats to distance the enemy from us. Ning Zhuo was of course unwilling, and directly increased the output of mana, commanding the mechanical explosive monkeys to pursue the victory. However, the speed of the mechanical rats was two points faster than the monkeys, which had a clear advantage. Seeing that the explosive monkeys could not catch up, Ning Zhuo said: "Brother Zhou, be careful, I'm going to use weapon accessories." The next moment, the explosive monkeys opened their mouths and spit out fiery red firecrackers. The mechanical monkeys threw the firecrackers out with force. The explosions of bang bang bang caused the earth and rocks to collapse, the trees to fall, and smoke and dust to rise. Waiting for the smoke and dust to dissipate, only a few mechanical debris were left at the explosion site. It turned out that at the critical moment, the mechanical rats burrowed into the ground and escaped. Only two of them also burrowed into the ground, but unfortunately they were in the fire point where the firecrackers exploded and the power was concentrated. Even if they burrowed into the ground, they were blown into pieces. "Only five are left." Ning Zhuo calculated secretly. He frowned slightly. Because the burrowing rats entered the mountains, Ning Zhuo lost his target and didn't know where they were going. It might return to Zhou Zeshen, or it might attack Ning Zhuo from underground. "Continue to attack? Or cast a reconnaissance spell?" Ning Zhuo chose to cast a spell to detect the surrounding environment. "Did you choose to defend first?" Zhou Zeshen stood on the top of the mountain and saw this scene, and a gleam of brilliance flashed quickly in his eyes. He secretly noted this detail. From the battle, a person's temperament can often be revealed more directly and frankly. This is one of the reasons why Zhou Zeshen proposed to spar. The Zhou family wanted to win over Ning Zhuo, and Zhou Zeshen also deeply realized that Ning Zhuo had great development potential. According to the current trend, he would definitely become an important figure in Huoshi Xiancheng in the future. And to win over key figures, the premise is to have enough understanding. A friendly exchange can often allow the monks to quickly get closer and enhance mutual understanding. "There are only five fire monkeys, and Ning Zhuo's control pressure is not great at all."
"He could have cast a reconnaissance spell while commanding the mechanical fire monkeys." "Sure enough." "He understood the main purpose of my exchange!" "He is worthy of being a genius of the same type as me." Zhou Zeshen's mouth curled up slightly, and he felt comfortable dealing with a smart person like Ning Zhuo! Many things do not need to be said explicitly, and they can understand each other. Ning Zhuo deliberately slowed down the rhythm of the battle, and Zhou Zeshen threw out the storage bag. The storage bag fell to the ground, the bag mouth opened wide, and more than a dozen mechanical bats-Night Sky Bats flew out of it. The Night Sky Bat flew across the air and flew towards Ning Zhuo. Seeing this, Ning Zhuo slapped his belt and released a flock of Thunder Birds. This mechanism is very popular and is widely praised for its simple operation and ease of use. The Thunder Birds and Night Sky Bats collided in mid-air, launching the second head-on confrontation between Ning Zhuo and Zhou Zeshen. The Thunder Birds' attacks were straight forward, while the Night Sky Bats were erratic, with agile turns and a far superior dodge ability to the Thunder Birds. The Night Sky Bats were the mechanism of the Mud Flow Sect, and their performance was obviously higher than that of the popular mechanism such as the Thunder Birds. Ning Zhuo had more Thunder Birds than Night Sky Bats, but after the fight, the Thunder Birds were quickly reduced in number and were clearly at a disadvantage. The faces of the Ning family members were serious, and some of them frowned, secretly worried about Ning Zhuo. "He is letting it go." Zhou Zeshen's heart moved. Just now, Ning Zhuo controlled five mechanical monkeys very agilely, showing a high level of control. But in this air battle, Ning Zhuo's Thunderbird had almost no operation, and it was straightforward and easy to determine the attack path. This gave Zhou Zeshen a big advantage. "It was because the mole group retreated in the first confrontation. So Ning Zhuo deliberately lost to me here to save my face." "This guy..." Zhou Zeshen gritted his teeth, feeling a little complicated. He was grateful to Ning Zhuo for thinking about his face and being so tacit. He was also very unhappy. Being given in this way, Zhou Zeshen, a genius, rarely had such an experience. "Although it was a friendly exchange, I have always been very serious." "I am using all my strength, but you are letting me go..." "Although this is a good intention, it is also a different kind of humiliation for me." "Ning Zhuo!" "I want you to look at me!!"
Zhou Zeshen shouted in his heart. Inspired by this, he took out a medium-sized machine from his storage belt. This mechanical creature looks like a tiger. It is about 25 feet long, 5 feet tall at the shoulder, with claws 3 inches long, fangs 2 inches long, white skin with black stripes, and golden pupils. It is quite powerful.
