Su Zheng strode towards Zhang Xiaopou, as happy as meeting a long-lost relative.
Zhang Xiaozu was sitting in the yard, listening to Su Jin's teaching voice and drinking tea leisurely. When he saw Su Zheng coming shouting, he immediately glared at him and told him to speak softer.
Su Zheng nodded quickly and kept silent, walked to the stone table, diligently picked up the teapot and filled Zhang Xiaozu's teacup with tea.
Then he asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhang, tomorrow is the registration time for the Iron Cavalry Competition. Do you think you can spare some time and let's sign up together?"
"Us?" Zhang Xiaozu gave Su Zheng a confused look. Before Su Zheng could speak, he shook his head firmly and said, "I won't play silly games with you little brats."
"——" Su Zheng couldn't help but have black lines on his head.
Zhang Xiaozu actually called him a little brat, and regarded the grand and solemn cavalry competition as a boring game of children's house. Really - really -
Okay, if you insist, it makes sense.
Su Zheng sighed feebly in his heart, and could only put on a smile and explain: "I am not asking you to participate in the Iron Cavalry Competition with us, but we are asking you to sign up as our instructors, because without teaching, we are not qualified to sign up for the Iron Cavalry Competition.
.”
"Does the teacher need to play a game?" Zhang Xiaozu asked after understanding.
"No need." Su Zheng shook his head.
"When is tomorrow?" Zhang Xiaozu asked.
"Registration starts at eight in the morning. We will pick you up at seven, okay?" Su Zheng asked.
Zhang Xiaozu nodded and said: "Go to Guowei Mansion to pick me up tomorrow morning, I will live there."
Hearing the words "Guowei Mansion", Su Zheng suddenly showed a look of fear on his face. He swallowed his saliva and asked in a low voice: "Isn't Guowei Mansion haunted?"
"We were making trouble before, but now we are no longer making trouble. The ghost boss was captured by your father." Zhang Xiaozu said.
"Really?" Su Zheng looked unbelieving.
"Believe it or not." Zhang Xiaozhu didn't bother to explain.
Su Zheng looked at Zhang Xiaozu who didn't look like he was lying, and frowned with a thoughtful expression on his face.
He has been thinking about the training venue these days and thought of several spacious places, but he rejected them all because they were not confidential enough.
He is self-aware and knows very well how difficult it is for 18 people to break into the top eight, so in addition to training with all his strength, there is one more thing that he must do well, and that is keeping it secret.
Strength is kept secret, tactics are kept secret.
Especially not letting Di Xiayun know.
Although Di Xiayun would not participate in the cavalry competition, Su Zheng knew with all her strength that she would definitely try her best to snipe him.
So when he learned that Guowei Mansion was no longer haunted, he started thinking about it and felt that Guowei Mansion was definitely the most hidden training venue.
After Su Zheng made a decision in his mind, he asked Zhang Xiaozu: "Can we live in Guowei Mansion?"
"The yard is all in ruins. You have to clean it yourself." Zhang Xiaozu said.
"No problem." Su Zhengdao.
Zhang Xiaozu looked Su Zheng up and down and asked, "How have you been practicing during the half month I've been away?"
Su Zheng's chest suddenly puffed up and he said proudly: "Now I can stand from morning to night in one breath, and they are about the same."
Thinking back on the sweat and hardships of the past half month, Su Zheng couldn't help but applaud himself and his partners.
In the past half month, they only slept for two or three hours a day, and spent the rest of the time practicing standing postures. They even ate while sitting in a horse stance.
Of course, without the aid of elixirs and medicinal baths, their bodies would have been exhausted long ago given the intensity of their training.
However, what they lack most is training resources.
If you are short of it, then go home and act like a spoiled brat.
Although their cultivation qualifications are useless, their starting point in life is above the clouds.
"Really?" Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but look surprised when he heard that Su Zheng could stand in a selfless state for a whole day.
"Of course!" Su Zheng couldn't help but raise his chin, and Zhang Xiaozu's surprised look made him even more proud.
"Stop and let me take a look." Zhang Xiaozu pointed to the open space beside him.
Su Zheng immediately walked over, bent his knees, squatted down, straightened his back, held his chest, and let his breath sink into his Dantian. His movements were correct and standard, and his breath was smooth and even. He immediately entered a state of selflessness.
Zhang Xiaozu nodded with satisfaction.
Then he stretched out his right index finger, dipped a drop of tea in the cup, and flicked it towards Su Zheng.
The water droplets were very fast and shot straight towards the center of Su Zheng's eyebrows.
Su Zheng sensed danger and suddenly opened his eyes.
Snapped!
The water drop hit Su Zheng's eyebrows.
Su Zheng touched the water stain between his eyebrows and cast a questioning look at Zhang Xiaozu.
Zhang Xiaozu stood up and said: "Call the others, I will wait for you under the Wusheng Tower."
Su Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he asked excitedly: "Are you going to choose martial arts techniques that are suitable for us?"
"of course not."
"Oh" Su Zheng responded disappointedly.
The place below Wusheng Tower has been very lively in recent days, with people coming and going, and there is always a group of people gathering under the tower.
Most of this group of people are students of the college, plus some teachers and teachers, as well as people from outside the college.
Sometimes they looked up at the top of the tower, sometimes staring at the open door, expecting something.
"Brother, what level has Zhou Jianlai reached?" A student who had just arrived at the tower through the pine forest asked a senior in front of him.
The senior in front looked up at the top of the tower and replied with shock, "He has already climbed to the seventh floor."
The new student was startled and exclaimed in disbelief: "Oh my God, he just climbed to the sixth floor yesterday, and he has already reached the seventh floor?"
"It was the senior brother from the seventh floor who came down and said it. It can't be wrong."
"How many swords did he use to defeat the gatekeeper on the sixth floor?"
"One sword!"
"Another sword! So awesome!"
"If he can reach the top in one breath, he will create history and become the first person!"
"Is that Qin Xingjian still there?"
"Here, he's still standing there."
"Brother, do you think if Zhou Jian came to the top of the tower, would he be scared off?"
"No." The senior shook his head.
"Why?"
"Because his sword has already been unsheathed. If he retreats without fighting, it will be difficult for his sword to be unsheathed in front of Zhou Jianlai in this life."
"Senior brother, his sword is still in his arms and has not been unsheathed."
The senior smiled and shook his head.
He's talking about the Heart Sword!
There were people waiting for Zhou Jianlai at the bottom of the tower and wanting to compete with him. There were also people waiting for Zhou Jianlai at the top of the tower who also wanted to compete with him.
Zhan Aotian, the thirteenth man to reach the top of Wusheng Tower, fought with Nian Lifu twelve days ago, suffered seventy-nine blows, and narrowly won.
Some of the people under the Wu Sheng Tower are waiting to see Zhou Jianlai fail in breaking into the tower, some are looking forward to Zhou Jianlai becoming the number one person in the Wu Sheng Tower, and some are waiting to see Zhou Jianlai duel with Qin Xingjian.
When Zhang Xiaozu came to the foot of Wu Sheng Pagoda, Su Zheng and other eighteen people had already arrived one step ahead.
When they saw Zhang Xiaozu coming, they cheered and surrounded him. Everyone rushed to tell Zhang Xiaozu what they had just heard about Zhou Jianlai's amazing deeds.
They have been practicing hard outside the academy for the past half month, and they just came to the academy today, so they just heard about it.
"Broken and then established, Brother Zhou's swordsmanship seems to have been completed!" Zhang Xiaozu looked at the top of the tower and exclaimed.
Su Zheng looked at the top of the tower with envy and admiration, and murmured: "I can break into Wusheng Tower anytime. The requirements are not high. I will be satisfied if I can climb to the third floor."
After Zhang Xiaozu heard this, he said: "If you have time to daydream, it's better to walk for a while."
Su Zheng's expression changed upon hearing this, he looked at Zhang Xiaozhu and asked with horror in his eyes: "You asked us to come here, didn't you mean to make us stand on horseback here?"
"What else?" Zhang Xiaozhu said with an expression of course.
"This - so many people?" Su Zheng said with an ugly face.
The others all had the same expression. They practiced horse riding in front of so many classmates without even thinking that they would be ridiculed mercilessly.
"Why, are you afraid of embarrassment?" Zhang Xiaozhu saw their concerns.
"Yeah" Su Zheng muttered.
"Is it more embarrassing than being pressed to the ground and rubbed?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked with a sneer.
Su Zheng's face turned extremely ugly.
"Eighteen people beat one person, and the face is bruised and swollen. Isn't that embarrassing?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked again.
Su Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and thought that Zhang Xiaozu was talking about the fight they had with others before. He thought that Zhang Xiaozu knew about the fact that he was stepped on the ground and ravaged by Di Xiayun.
"Just prick, we have long been the laughingstock of others, and we are still afraid of a trivial joke."
"That is, if anyone likes to laugh, let him laugh. When I become strong one day, I will pull out his teeth one by one."
"Where to go?" someone asked Zhang Xiaopou.
"Where else are you going? Just stick it here." Su Zheng answered for Zhang Xiaozu.
"Get out of the way, grandpas are about to march, don't stand in the way."
"Why are you staring? Do you believe that I have exposed all the bad things your ancestors did for eighteen generations?"
Before Zhang Xiaopou had time to interrupt, Su Zheng and others arrogantly drove away the crowd and cleared an open space. Without Zhang Xiaopou's instructions, they took up their horse stances consciously.
"A bunch of scoundrels!"
"Zamabu, I'll stab you to death!"
"Why are there these eighteen stinky rats everywhere?!"
Curses soon rang out from the surrounding crowd, but due to the power of Su Zheng and others, these people only dared to lower their heads and curse a few words in a low voice.
"Huh?" Su Zheng, who had just stepped off his horse, suddenly opened his eyes and frowned.
Everyone else had pretty much the same reaction.
Because they were surprised to find that the ability they had developed to enter a state of selflessness at will suddenly no longer worked.
They all raised their heads to look at the Wusheng Tower. It was the pressure of the Wusheng Tower that prevented them from entering a state of selflessness with peace of mind.
Only then did they know why Zhang Xiaozu let them come to Wusheng Pagoda to stand on horseback. It turned out that he wanted to use the pressure of Wusheng Pagoda to train them.
Zhang Xiaozu spoke at the right time: "Even I can't resist the pressure of Wusheng Tower, so don't try to use your own momentum to fight against it. All you can do is adapt to its existence. When will you be able to persist under the tower?
In an hour, I will start teaching you boxing techniques."
After saying that, Zhang Xiaopeng bent his knees and squatted down, and also took up the horse stance, because doing the horse stance under the Wusheng Pagoda was also a kind of exercise for him.
When Su Zheng and others saw that Zhang Xiaopeng had begun to practice, their spirits were immediately lifted, and they all took the time to practice.
They were eagerly looking forward to Zhang Xiaozu's boxing skills.
On the ninth floor of the Wusheng Tower, Nan Fengtian, the director of the courtyard, looked down at Zhang Xiaozu who was pacing under the tower, and muttered depressedly: "It's such a simple breathing and breathing method. I know it at a glance, but why are the students taught by me and...
What this kid taught is completely different? What exactly is the problem?"
