Chapter 315 The origin of the martial art and the martial arts competition
If we look further back, most of the current martial arts sects can basically have some relationship with those great martial arts sects in ancient times.
Take the White Crane Gate and the Black Tiger Gate as examples. Their original origins can be traced back to the five-shaped and five-phase gates of the ancient sects.
It is said that the Five Shapes and Five Phases Sect united with two other martial arts sects to establish the Heavenly Palace in ancient times. At that time, gods and immortals were like clouds, and Buddhas and demons were like rain, ruling the world for thousands of years.
It is a pity that in this world where martial arts must compete, no matter how powerful the force is, one day it will decay and collapse.
In the end, the powerful Heavenly Palace also dispersed, and the five-shaped and five-phase gates also fell apart.
Everything has been replaced by a stronger force!
The disintegrated Five-Shaped and Five-Phase Sect did not die, but its branches were scattered around the world, and it could no longer gather the destiny of the great sect.
It is not unheard of in history that geniuses from the five-shaped and five-phase sect branches wanted to reunify all the branches and recreate the glory of the ancient sect, but unfortunately they all ended in failure.
One of the more famous ones is a strong man known as the Shuangjue Old Man. He is proficient in the two forms of tiger and crane. During his active period, he almost ran rampant in the Central Region and rarely encountered opponents. At that time, the Shuangjue Sect he founded was even more famous.
A moment of great success!
Unfortunately, the Shuangjue Sect could not escape the fate of decline in the end, and eventually split into the White Crane Sect and the Black Tiger Sect.
To say that these sects come from the same origin, there should be some kind of incestuous relationship, but the fact is that the two sects have been fighting to the death since their establishment. It is better to compete in public, and at most they will lose hands and feet. If they meet in private, they will definitely have to fight.
Divided into life and death!
Lando once asked Meng Hezhong about the source of the hatred between the two factions, but even he couldn't tell the reason. Perhaps the original truth has long been submerged in the long river of history, and what is left now is just the hatred accumulated from generation to generation.
Bar.
Speaking of which, the martial arts of the White Crane Sect are characterized by agility and flexibility, while the martial arts of the Black Tiger Sect are characterized by strength and explosiveness. The martial arts of the two schools are highly complementary. It is no wonder that the old man Shuang Jue was able to dominate for a while.
These are only two of the five-shaped and five-phase gates. At that time, the five-shaped and five-phase gate also had the supreme inheritance of the ‘Ten Directions Martial Arts’, which was known as “the five shapes and five phases, invincible in the ten directions”!
However, these days, the origins of heels are unreliable, and the most important thing is strength. The wild ball boxing at the next door is also said to be the direct descendant of the Immortal Emperor. If you practice it to the extreme, you can kill immortals and Buddhas. It is not a small sect now.
Are there two or three kittens inside the door?
Lando: Wild ball punch?!
Lando suddenly thought of something and asked, "Can I take my sister with me?"
Meng Hezhong nodded slightly at first, thought for a while and then reminded: "Although there is a default rule of 'no harm to the family' in our martial arts world, there is no guarantee that there will not be some people with evil intentions. Now that you have entered it, you can't
Don’t guard against it.”
Lando suppressed his smile and responded seriously: "Thank you, teacher, for reminding me. I understand."
Since he officially joined the Baihe Martial Arts School, Lando has the qualification to call Teacher Meng Hetang and Meng Hezhong.
Seeing that Lando had listened to his advice, Meng Hezhong nodded happily and disappeared into the morning breeze with a flash of his body.
Lando stood quietly on the tall building, thinking about something.
…………
"travel?!"
Lan Yue exclaimed.
Lando nodded and said with a smile: "There is a martial arts club in Yongchang City. The teacher wants me to participate. You just go with me and help me cheer up!"
Lan Yue's eyes sparkled, and then she asked with some worry: "Then...will it be dangerous?"
Lan Yue has also seen some martial arts competitions. Although there are various rules, when warriors compete, some accidents will inevitably happen, which looks very dangerous.
Lando said calmly: "Of course there are dangers, but practicing martial arts, how can it be safe all the time? There will always be times when you have to fight with others, and the martial arts club is already the safest place."
The main purpose of bringing Lan Yue there this time is to let the little girl see the world, so that she will not have to think about the situation alone when she is not clear about the situation. If possible, Lan Duo also hopes that she can take the path of martial arts, so that if any emergencies happen in the future, she will be more or less safe.
A little bit of self-preservation.
Speaking of which, the martial arts system in this world does not have much life-extending effect, or it has no effect at low levels.
Needless to say, external training will not extend your lifespan, but will shorten your own lifespan. Only by reaching the realm of internal training can you make up for all the losses, but even the peak of internal training is only the human body's limit of one hundred and fifty lifespans.
The purpose of the God of Pregnancy is to nurture the divine will and use the infinite spirit to break the shackles of the limited body. Before the true conception of the divine will is completed, people are still human beings.
Only when the will of God is fully realized and the separation between humans and gods is broken, can we enter the wonderful realm of immortals and Buddhas. No matter how ordinary people are, we can enjoy thousands of years of life and be free and easy.
I don't know about the possible existence of a higher-level powerhouse named Lando, but in theory, any profession that surpasses legend will have an eternal lifespan, and there is no need to worry about old age and death.
Next, the little girl entered the state of housekeeper, wanting to take this and that, looking like she wanted to move, so Lando had to stop her attempt to vacate her small house in a funny way.
Because the overall process of this martial arts competition is five days, Lando Lanyue directly asked for a week's leave. After all, for Lando, it would be fine if he didn't go. If he went, he would naturally get the first place, so the five-day schedule was definitely
It has to be filled up.
Hearing that the two brothers and sisters had taken a week off to go to the competition (travel?), Yu Ting's eyes turned red with envy. Although he wanted to go, in the end he still didn't want to cause trouble to his adoptive parents, so he had no choice but to give up.
.
We took the high-speed train to Yongchang City, and Meng Hetang accompanied him. Although he didn't see Meng Hezhong, Lando could sense the other man's divine will. Presumably it was because his goal was too big, so he chose to follow him secretly.
After arriving in Yongchang City, people from the local Baihe Martial Arts School naturally came to greet him. The leader was a middle-aged man who was at the peak of internal training, but the other party looked very respectful to Meng Hetang, who was also at the same level of internal training.
Naturally, his place of residence is the Baihe Martial Arts School here. As for registration for the competition, the local Baihe Martial Arts School had already done it for Lando when he was still on the high-speed rail. The so-called need to register in person is just for ordinary people.
Just a warrior.
They arrived in Yongchang City in the afternoon, and the competition starts tomorrow. Originally, the martial arts school arranged for Lando to have a good rest, but after seeing Lan Yue's wandering eyes, Lando expressed that he wanted to stroll around Yongchang City.
visit.
Regarding Lando's request, Baihe Martial Arts School in Yongchang City naturally tried its best to satisfy it. You need to know who Lando is. He is Meng Hetang's favorite disciple in recent years. Although Meng Hetang himself is only an internal practitioner, he has senior qualifications and has once
He has taught numerous martial arts students both externally and internally, and the most important thing is that his brother Meng Hezhong, with whom he has recently settled their feud, is a strong man at the peak of the genuine God of Pregnancy. If immortals and Buddhas cannot emerge, he is the ultimate existence in the world. At the main gate
They all have great power, and such people are not something that a branch martial arts school can offend.
So the brother and sister visited this prosperous city under the arrangement of Yongchang Baihe Martial Arts School.
Speaking of which, Yongchang City was a very important transportation hub in ancient times. Business has always been prosperous, and it has become even more prosperous in modern times when transportation has become more convenient.
The brother and sister occasionally took cars and occasionally walked, leaving their footprints everywhere in commercial streets and snack towns.
The little girl's face was red the whole time and she looked very excited.
When the two of them passed by a bustling commercial street in a car, a huge signboard came into Lando's eyes. At first, there was a black tiger about to pounce. Its fangs and claws were clearly visible. The background was a touch of blood red.
There are four big characters below Black Tiger... Black Tiger Martial Arts School!
Lando raised his eyebrows.
The man from the White Crane Martial Arts School who was driving noticed Lando's expression in the rearview mirror and said, "The area around here is the territory of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School. We generally don't come here."
Lando nodded and asked: "How do our two martial arts schools get along with each other in Yongchang City?"
The driver of the car shrugged and said, "Let's not interact with each other until we die. After all, we are in the city and we can't fight in public."
Is it just that they have not interacted with each other for a long time? It seems that no matter how deep the hatred between the two sides is, the two sides still try to avoid conflicts as much as possible at the level of the martial arts school.
The vehicle roared past the area where the Black Tiger Martial Arts School was located and continued to move forward.
The two of them didn't come back until the evening. Because they were full of snacks, snacks and snacks, the little girl was a little drowsy without even eating much dinner.
When Lando carried the confused little girl to the bed in the room, the little girl still had a silly smile on her lips.
When he walked out of the room, he saw Meng Hetang waiting for him outside the door. The latter also saw that Lando doted on his sister too much. This was not a good thing for a warrior who was committed to reaching the top, but he was fine with it.
The only way is to take it one step at a time.
Lando somewhat understood the concerns of the two brothers and teachers, Meng Hezhong and Meng Hetang, but he felt it didn't matter.
As a "reincarnated power", if he can't protect his own sister, then he shouldn't be around anymore!
Meng Hetang dismissed the messy thoughts in his heart and said with a smile: "Boy, it seems that you are very confident about tomorrow's game, why don't you prepare for it?"
Lando smiled and responded: "Don't worry, teacher, it's just kids fighting. I think I can handle it."
Meng Hetang was stunned for a moment, and became speechless as he chewed on Lando's words. Children fighting? It's a shame Lando said this. Aren't you just a child yourself?
They shook their heads and stopped thinking about it. In their opinion, regardless of winning or losing in this martial arts meeting, even if they were to have their hands and feet broken by the little guy from the Black Tiger Martial Arts Hall, it would be a good thing for Lando.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Lando went to the top floor to practice boxing on his own under the astonished eyes of the staff of Baihe Martial Arts School in Yongchang City.
After one set, I just warmed up and felt refreshed.
Wake up Lan Yue, who was still a little confused because she played too crazy yesterday. After having breakfast together, the two of them went to the Yongchang Central Gymnasium under the leadership of the martial arts staff, which was also the venue for this youth martial arts competition.
Competition venue.
Although it was early in the morning, when they arrived at the stadium, it was already very busy. People entered the venue in twos and threes, and they were still talking enthusiastically about who was most likely to win.
The Budokai has announced the list of participants after the registration deadline last night, and also released simple information about the participants.
There are more than 200 contestants in total, and the loser is eliminated in a two-by-two battle mode.
On the first day, most of them will be eliminated and the top 64 will be determined. On the second day, the top 32 will be announced. On the third day, only the top 16 will be left. On the fourth day, the top eight will advance.
On the fifth day, there will be the quarter-finals in the morning, the semi-finals in the afternoon, and the exciting finals of the martial arts tournament in the evening!
Although the schedule is not very reasonable, after all, it is a mostly performance-based competition, so we cannot ask for more.
The group of people came to the independent players' lounge. After all, it was the White Crane Martial Arts Gym, so they still had this privilege. The other martial artists could only rest in the mixed lounge.
Meng Hetang looked leisurely, drinking a cup of tea. Lando also looked calm, thinking about martial arts. But the little girl Lan Yue was a little nervous. She seemed to be unable to calm down since entering the gym and kept walking around.
.
Lando had no choice but to interrupt his thoughts and said helplessly: "Xiao Yueyue, it's me competing and not you competing, so why are you more nervous than me?"
The little girl immediately denied it and said: "No way, I...I...I'm so nervous!"
Lando smiled and shook his head: "No, if you keep doing this, I won't take you out to play next time!"
Hearing what Lando said, Lan Yue did not dare to refute, so she could only find a chair to sit down in aggrieved manner.
Today is the first day of the martial arts meet, so everyone has to compete in two or three battles. Since there are several battle stages taking place at the same time, it is not slow.
There are many large screens in the lounge, and you can clearly see the scenes on each battle stage.
As the competition began, Lando no longer had time to tease the sulking little girl. He focused all his attention on the competition, and Xiao Hui naturally began to record it.
Although most of the competition is composed of casual warriors, it does not mean that their martial arts are useless. Lando records them and relies on Xiao Hui's computing power to reversely deduce their training methods, which can somewhat enrich his own martial arts background.
.
Soon it was Lando's turn to appear. His opponent was a young man holding an eyebrow-high stick. The weapons were naturally the ordinary weapons provided by the conference. If you want to use the weapons, you only need to explain and apply in advance.
After both sides saluted, the battle began.
It can be seen that the stick-wielding boy has a very solid foundation. Lando fought with the opponent for a long time, and after fully understanding him, he directly took action and knocked him off the fighting platform.
The young man was stunned for a moment, wondering why he was defeated all of a sudden even though the battle was evenly matched just now.
Then his expression changed as if he had thought of something, and then he solemnly clasped his fists like Lando and said, "Thank you for your mercy, brother. I, Hou Tianhua, have made a commitment to you as my friend. Please tell me your name!"
A question mark slowly floated over Lando's head. He didn't quite understand the other person's brain circuit, but he still introduced himself.
