No warrior is willing to give up on himself? As long as there is still a glimmer of hope in the path of martial arts, no one is willing to give up.
Gan Ning was no exception. He was directly beaten down by Xiahou Zong, and he only felt that his Dantian Qi Palace was completely destroyed. That's why he was so sad and desperate, and gave up on himself.
Hearing Jiang Chen say this at this moment, considering Jiang Chen's amazing alchemy talent, Gan Ning's eyes for survival shone brightly for a moment.
Jiang Chen nodded heavily: "I, Shao, have never told lies? You swallowed this pill and rested for a while. After the sword discussion is over, I will find a way to make you recover as before. Also, Xiahou Zong treats you very well.
Whatever I do, I will pay him back in full!"
When Gan Ning heard this, he immediately became anxious: "No! When you meet Xiahou Zong, you must not get hot-headed and fight him. His hatred for you far exceeds his hatred for us. He only vents his anger on me. He
I will definitely vent my anger by dealing with you, and I will definitely want to chop you into pieces. If you fight him in a bloody battle, you will play into his hands."
Gan Ning was very anxious. The last time he fought against Jiang Chen, they were evenly matched. Therefore, Gan Ning thought that he knew his strength very well.
Even though he has made a lot of progress during this period, the gap between him and Xiahou Zong cannot be filled in a short period of time.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, but didn't say anything. He put the elixir into Gan Ning's hand and patted the back of Gan Ning's hand: "Don't worry, I'm sensible."
Gan Ning closed his eyes and sighed: "If I advised you to give up and admit defeat, you would no longer be Shao Yuan. That's all. I only have one piece of advice: protect yourself, protect yourself, and don't give him a chance to kill you."
Now Xiahou Zong has become Gan Ning's nightmare. Gan Ning has always boasted that he is the top genius of the Eternal Divine Kingdom.
However, after fighting against Xia Houzong, he realized what a truly top genius was. It might be an exaggeration to say that adults beat children.
But facing Xiahou Zong, Gan Ning really felt like his hands and feet were tied. Xiahou Zong's moves didn't look so domineering.
However, there was always a terrifying restraint between Xiahou Zong's moves, as if he could easily control the battle situation, preventing Gan Ning's attacks from exerting even one-tenth of their power.
And Xia Houzong could firmly control Gan Ning's offensive and defensive rhythm with just a few movements of his hands.
This kind of control can only be possessed by an opponent with an overwhelming advantage.
Although Gan Ning hated Xiahou Zong fiercely, he had to admit that he was really powerless in front of Xiahou Zong and couldn't do anything at all.
This gap is too big.
At this time, the Great Holy Lord also walked in, with a somewhat gloomy expression. It could be seen that the Great Holy Lord was also angry.
After all, Gan Ning was one of the five young masters and the top genius of the Eternal Holy Land. Xiahou Zong was so ruthless, and the Great Holy Master was also a protector of shortcomings, so he was naturally unhappy.
Previously, the Great Holy Master went to find Xiaoyao Hou and warned him not to let Xiahou Zong do too much.
However, Xiaoyao Hou laughed and said: "Great Holy Lord, when I came to visit last time, I said that once the Xiahou Zong's anger was aroused, even I can't imagine the consequences. Alas, his Xiahou Zong is very heavy-handed.
, What can I do? You can’t tell him to hold back and fight. This is a competition in the ring. If you don’t try your best to win, how can you expect him to give in? "
Xiaoyao Hou said and laughed exaggeratedly.
This laughter sounded extremely harsh to the ears of the Great Holy Master.
Although Xiaoyao Hou spoke arrogantly, there was some truth in what he said. When it comes to swordsmanship, there is no rule against hurting others.
Sometimes, even casualties are common. No one can guarantee that there will be no casualties in the ring.
If you are afraid, don’t participate as soon as possible.
The Great Holy Lord returned to his territory full of anger.
The Great Holy Lord is actually very clear-minded. Seeing the low morale of everyone here in the Eternal Holy Land, the Great Holy Lord is also sad.
"That beast of Xiahou Zong is so arrogant. If you encounter him, if you are defeated, don't hold on and surrender voluntarily. I will not blame you."
"Humph, that beast is too bullying!"
Each of these geniuses is filled with righteous indignation.
The Great Sage waved his hand and looked at Jiang Chen with a somewhat depressed look. He reminded him earnestly: "Shao Yuan, the Xiahou Sect will only become more hostile to you. If you meet him, be sure to remember..."
Jiang Chen nodded lightly: "Don't worry, Great Holy Lord, I have a sense of discretion."
Jiang Chen knew that if he made any bold words now, no one would believe him. If he said too much, it would be in vain to offend everyone.
On the other hand, Jiang Chen warned Yan Qingsang: "Relax, after entering the top thirty-two, any of us may encounter Xiahou Zong. If you encounter him, please remember to leave him to me."
Although Yan Qingsang was confident, he also knew that he was far from Xiahou Zong's opponent. He sighed softly: "Well, I'm not that bastard's opponent anyway."
That night, the morale of the entire Eternal Holy Land was very low.
Only four geniuses have entered the top thirty-two, which is obviously a bit shabby compared to the status of the Eternal Holy Land.
Even Jiang Chen felt that the organizer seemed to be intentionally weakening the power of the Eternal Holy Land.
Sure enough, as expected, in the third round of drawing on the third day, the remaining four people from the Eternal Holy Land all drew their lots again.
The genius Jiang Chen met was surprisingly one of the top geniuses of the Yunlang Sect. Coincidentally, this genius was one of the most die-hard loyalists of the Xiahou Sect.
In the past, he was also the most active one in showing courtesy to Xiahou Zong.
He was also a genius who had sworn his loyalty to Xiahou Zong before and would fight Jiang Chen to death.
In addition to Jiang Chen, the opponents encountered by the other people in the Eternal Holy Land were also very powerful. The genius ranked first among the five young masters directly encountered Xiahou Zong.
As for Yan Qingsang and the other person, the opponents they encountered were all first-rate beings. It can be said that in terms of strength, they were all capable of being among the top five.
It can be said that such a confrontation is almost at the pace of destroying the Eternal Holy Land.
When Jiang Chen saw such a matchup, he secretly shook his head. Isn't the organizer's appearance too ugly?
Could it be that this royal family really wants to start over again and get rid of the control of the Eternal Holy Land? With such a matchup arrangement, even if Jiang Chen is a fool, he doesn't think this is a normal draw.
The Great Holy Master's expression was indifferent. Obviously, the Great Holy Master knew very well in his heart, but it was not easy for the Great Holy Master to get angry in this situation.
It can only be said that these little clevernesses of the organizers deeply angered the Great Holy Lord.
If this matchup is played, it is very likely that after this round, only one or two will advance to the top 16.
And in the next round, the team may be wiped out.
Jiang Chen guessed that if he could break through this round, maybe Xiahou Zong would face him in the next round.
The reason why Xiahou Zong has not been drawn yet may be that some people just think that the five young masters are more worthy of dealing with than Jiang Chen.
There is no doubt that every opponent Xiahou Zong encounters in the future will be from the Eternal Holy Land.
Rather than saying that this is a sword debate between geniuses, it is better to say that this is a conspiracy against the Eternal Holy Land.
"Everyone, make your own decisions. You can't do anything, and you don't have to hold on." The Great Holy Master could only be so relieved when he saw the result of the lottery.
Yan Qingsang's opponent is also extremely powerful, and it is definitely not something Yan Qingsang can handle with his current strength.
As for Xiahou Zong, there is almost no suspense in this battle.
The one who won the lottery from Xiahou Zong was Young Master Sui Chen, who ranked first among the five young masters. His cultivation level was even better than that of Wu You.
If he hadn't met Xia Houzong, Mr. Sui Chen would have been very sure of making it to the finals.
However, winning the lottery against Xia Houzong meant that his journey in the Genius Sword Contest was almost at its end.
Jiang Chen and Mr. Sui Chen had no friendship at all, so naturally they would not comfort him. Mr. Sui Chen had a livid face, and he seemed to be in a very bad mood.
It even seemed that Mr. Sui Chen was a little resentful. It seemed that he resented Jiang Chen for bringing him bad luck. In his opinion, it seemed that it was because of the appearance of Shao Yuan and because Shao Yuan provoked Xiahou Zong that the Eternal Holy Land was destroyed.
Geniuses encounter unlucky fortunes time and time again.
Jiang Chen also understood the meaning in Mr. Sui Chen's eyes.
Jiang Chen shook his head. He hoped that the person he had drawn was not the genius of Yunlang Sect, but Xiahou Zong. However, at this stage, Xiahou Zong didn't seem to like him yet. In other words, Xiahou Zong might want to tease the prey with the hunter.
Same, tease him a little longer.
"Qingsang, the situation is very delicate. There seems to be an invisible force secretly targeting the Eternal Holy Land. In this battle, you will fight if you can, but if you cannot win, you must remember to protect yourself first."
Jiang Chen realized that the situation was delicate, so he warned Yan Qingsang again.
"Don't worry." Yan Qingsang grinned, "I won't give these guys a chance. If you can't win, you will admit defeat. I, Yan Qingsang, don't have much fame yet. To reach this point, I have overfulfilled my mission.
I have nothing to lose! I have nothing to lose!"
As Yan Qingsang said, it was already a huge improvement for him to participate in the Genius Sword Competition. What's more, he eliminated several people along the way.
At least, he has proven himself.
"Okay, all geniuses, enter your designated arena. The third round of sword fighting will begin immediately!" came a voice from the organizer.
"Go for it!"
Jiang Chen said and walked quickly towards the arena where he was.
On the arena, the genius from the Yunlang Sect had been waiting there for a long time. Seeing the other person's leisurely look, he looked at Jiang Chen with a sneer like a cat playing with a mouse.
Jiang Chen glanced at the other party indifferently and did not clasp his fists politely.
"Shao Yuan, right? Your alchemy talent is really good. Unfortunately, in the martial arts field, you are still far behind. Today, I, Shen Fan of the Yunlang Sect, will teach you how to behave."
