"Escape as far away as possible, never look back..."
The heart-rending cry, the sorrow that penetrates the bone marrow, the ferocious shadow of the demon——
Liang Qiufeng stood up suddenly, sweating profusely. He read a book at midnight.
The sky in the east was turning white, and it was another early morning.
He got up and dressed, and after washing up, Yaoyao had prepared breakfast outside as usual, waiting for him to eat together.
After eating, he set off to the sword practice field, sat cross-legged in the same place, and waited quietly for the sword practice bell to ring.
Regardless of whether it is a habit or whether you think there is a way to it, listening to the bell three times a day has become a deep-rooted behavioral inertia.
As the sun rises and hundreds of swords are waved, the sword performance field is at its busiest.
The day's plan starts in the morning, so if you work hard, you should start from the morning!
After an hour, the sword practice ended and everyone was free to move around.
"Senior Brother Liang, I want to compete with you again!"
Gu Huichuan stood in front of Liang Qiufeng with a long sword in his hand and a serious look on his face. After a while, he suddenly broke through to the fourth level of strength.
With a breakthrough in cultivation, his proud "Riptide Sword Technique" has also made great progress and advanced to the level of Xiaocheng.
So my confidence greatly increased and I came to discuss with Liang Qiufeng again.
"Senior Brother Liang, I will definitely defeat you this time!"
The young man shouted loudly.
After sword practice, many disciples often choose to stay for actual combat, which is not surprising. But when Gu Huichuan wants to challenge Liang Qiufeng, the meaning is different, and many people come to watch.
If the first challenge had Luo Gang's instructions behind the scenes, then this time it was entirely Gu Huichuan's own idea.
"Come and see, Gu Huichuan is going to challenge Liang Qiufeng again."
"Last time, Gu Huichuan was careless and failed miserably. He must be quite confident about his comeback this time."
"That goes without saying..."
Soon, a group of disciples formed a large circle.
In the circle, Liang Qiufeng stood tall and said calmly: "Junior brother Gu, you were no match for me last time, and this time, there is no hope of winning."
Gu Huichuan raised his eyebrows: "Really? Then please draw your sword."
"good!"
With the word "good" out of his mouth, Liang Qiufeng held his long sword in his hand, took a step forward, and stabbed Gu Huichuan with his sword.
"Well done!"
Gu Huichuan shouted loudly, and was about to use his sword to block, but he was ready to use his sword as he saw it. Liang Qiufeng, the clinker, did not wait for the strength of his sword to become stronger, changed his steps, changed his direction, and slashed with his sword again.
Take a step and draw a sword.
Footwork and swordsmanship are blended together, vaguely reaching a state of strolling in a courtyard. Different directions, different angles, flowing clouds and flowing water, all at your fingertips.
One step, two steps, three steps...
One sword, two swords, three swords...
From the moment Liang Qiufeng took the initiative with his first sword, Gu Huichuan fell into a defensive state that was too busy to take care of himself.
laugh!
The fifth step, the fifth sword.
Gu Huichuan was dumbfounded, holding his sword in mid-air, not daring to move. Because the tip of Liang Qiufeng's sword was pointed at his throat, the distance was only three centimeters.
He was defeated. In a few breaths, he was completely defeated. It was even more decisive than the first failure, without any suspense.
The time was so short that Gu Huichuan didn't even have time to react, and he didn't even know what happened.
The entire battle situation was completely controlled by Liang Qiufeng. It didn't look like a battle between warriors of the same level, but an adult crushing a child.
"I failed again..."
Gu Huichuan murmured, his mouth full of bitterness. He came here full of confidence, thinking that even if he lost in the end, the defeat would not be too ugly. He never expected that he would not even have a chance to fight back. After just a few encounters, he would
Liang Qiufeng pointed his sword at his throat.
I thought that after practicing hard for a period of time, I could catch up and compete with each other; the clinker caught up further and further, and in the end I could only lag behind.
After this defeat, Gu Huichuan knew in his heart that it would be impossible to compete with Liang Qiufeng in this life.
Thinking about the past, when he was in the family, he was a well-known genius in the local area, and he had an aura. But after coming to Jianfu, not to mention competing with senior brothers such as Luo Gang and Gu Chengyang, even Liang, who started later than him,
Qiu Feng was defeated repeatedly in battles against him.
Except for Gu Huichuan, everyone onlookers were in a daze at this moment.
The corners of Luo Gang's eyes twitched: footwork and swordsmanship, sword and step combined, what a good boy, he actually understood this step, he is really quite capable...
Although he and Liang Qiufeng were not on the same page, he would not become arrogant because of this.
The first time Liang Qiufeng defeated Gu Huichuan with a quick sword, there were many flaws in his swordsmanship at that time. If it were Luo Gang who took action, relying on his huge advantage in cultivation, he could defeat Liang with one move.
Qiu Feng's quick sword; time has passed, and Liang Qiufeng's sword skills still have flaws, but the number has dropped sharply, at least there are only a handful of them that Luo Gang can catch.
If you include the changes in footwork and filling positions in actual combat, the number is even less.
Now if Luo Gang faced Liang Qiufeng, he would have to use at least ten moves to gain the upper hand.
From one move to ten moves, Liang Qiufeng's progress is very impressive.
The last time he made a bold statement in front of Luo Gang and wanted to compete with him, it was regarded as a joke by many people at that time. But now, after witnessing Liang Qiufeng's performance, who dares to conclude that it is impossible?
"Well done. In a short period of time, Junior Brother Liang has been able to integrate swordsmanship and footwork to such an extent, which shows that his understanding is extraordinary. This should be the reason why Elder Xiao values him. If this momentum develops, maybe he will be a late bloomer and have many talents.
High achievement.”
Zhang Jiangshan was sincerely happy for Liang Qiufeng.
Liang Qiufeng saw the despair in Gu Huichuan's heart and said slowly: "Junior brother Gu, your biggest problem is not your swordsmanship, but your state of mind. Yesterday, Elder Xiao came to talk to me, and he said this to me
One sentence: 'Failure is not terrible. What is terrible is that you lose your fighting spirit after failure.' I borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and give them to you."
Hearing this sentence, the people around him buzzed and whispered to each other:
"It seems that Elder Xiao did not feel disappointed and reprimanded Liang Qiufeng, but instead comforted and encouraged..."
"Woo hoo hoo, why is it not me that Elder Xiao favors?"
"Envy, jealousy and hate!"
Gu Huichuan's eyes lit up, and hope rekindled in his heart. He bit his lip and said solemnly: "Thank you, Senior Brother Liang, for your teaching."
He was convinced of his defeat.
Liang Qiufeng laughed it off, cupped his hands, and walked outside.
The crowd of onlookers automatically moved out of the way to let him pass.
"Well done!"
Zhang Jiangshan secretly praised, and seeing Luo Gang's expression not looking good, he shouted: "Luo Gang, what are you thinking about?"
Luo Gang snorted: "Fat Zhang, what does it have to do with you?"
Because of Zhang Jiangshan's outstanding physical features, people who were not on the same page with him called him "Fat Zhang", which was a sign of contempt and ridicule.
Zhang Jiangshan was not angry and said with a smile: "I just want to remind you that if you have time, practice more, which is more practical than anything else."
"Take care of yourself, let's see who breaks through to the eighth level of strength first!"
Luo Gang rolled his sleeves and left the sword performance field with a group of close junior disciples.
