A few withered yellow leaves fell from the treetops, dancing in the wind, and fell on the ring.
They are like pieces of autumn elves, which have prepared themselves there in advance to welcome something.
Not long after, two figures walked onto the ring.
One, four eyebrows.
One, thick eyebrows and big eyes.
They walked leisurely, like two old men taking a walk after dinner, exuding a calm temperament that belied their age.
People were already standing around the arena.
At the judging table next to the ring, the senior experts headed by Shen Youran also had bright eyes and focused expressions.
At this moment, what is about to take place in the arena is the final competition of the fourth round of the martial arts test of the Young Heroes Association, and the two sides in that battle are none other than Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai.
Yes, Huang Donglai, who ranked higher in the literary test, had byes in the first three rounds. According to the promotion table, the opponent he met in the fourth round was the battle between Guo Cong and Sun Yixie in the previous round. the winner.
Different from the previous two games, Sun Yixie simply did not bring the trident to the stage this time.
Of course, Huang Donglai also did it with bare hands.
In the wind, the two stood solemnly.
They didn't salute each other or even make eye contact.
One of them looked up at the sky at 45 degrees, showing melancholy; the other looked down at the ground at 45 degrees, pretending to be deep.
There was silence for a long time before someone spoke.
"What was supposed to come has finally come." Sun Yixie raised his head and lamented in a compassionate tone.
"Yes, I'm afraid this battle is also fate." Huang Donglai responded in a deep voice.
Everyone in the audience knew that these two were good friends, so no one thought it was strange that they said these words before the fight started.
After a brief pause, Sun Yixie added: "In this battle, you and I should do our best."
Huang Donglai said: "That's natural."
Sun Yixi said: "That's the best."
The conversation between the two without any substantive content seemed to go on for a long time and showed no signs of stopping.
Huang Donglai said: "But you didn't even bring any weapons."
Sun Yixi said: "I brought it."
Huang Donglai asked: "Where?"
Sun Yixi said: "In front of you."
The audience also understood the implication of his words, which meant that he himself was like a weapon.
Huang Donglai said: "Okay."
Sun Yixie said: "It's indeed good." He paused and then said, "But you don't seem to be carrying any weapons."
When Huang Donglai heard this, he smiled slightly: "Ha... you also know that I use hidden weapons."
Sun Yixie said: "I just saw that... you came on stage without even bringing a hidden weapon, that's why you said this."
Huang Donglai smiled: "It depends on how you define a hidden weapon." As he said that, he picked up a fallen leaf that fell on his shoulder and said, "In my opinion, this... can also be a hidden weapon. .”
This is scary, and it really scares a lot of people.
The martial arts heroes watching the battle have only heard of the name of the young master of the Huang Clan, but have never seen his kung fu. Now he is hinting that he can "kill enemies with flying flowers and hurt people with falling leaves."
He must have been shocked.
You know, many people can pick up hard objects such as stones and tiles and throw them out as concealed weapons. Even second- and third-rate concealed weapon users can do it; but if you want to use "fallen leaves" as concealed weapons, then
Even some top experts may not be able to do it.
The difficulty of this matter is similar to asking you to play snooker with a chopstick and scoring 147 points, or asking you to play mahjong blindfolded and still go unnoticed.
This is not a state that can be achieved by hard work alone. It must be achieved by those with extraordinary talents after years of hard work.
But Huang Donglai, the 17-year-old young master of the Huang Clan, now says that he can use fallen leaves as a hidden weapon. Can everyone not be shocked after hearing this?
"Okay." On the stage, Sun Yixie didn't react that much to Huang Donglai's words. He just said calmly, "Since everyone has weapons, we can take action."
Huang Donglai answered: "Well, that's all."
As they spoke, the two finally stopped standing there and posing. Instead, they turned their heads at the same time, looked at each other, and then each took a few steps forward.
The arena was not very big to begin with, and within a few steps, the two of them were in front of their opponents, only five steps away.
However, at this moment, they still didn't put up a posture, they just stood with their hands behind their hands, staring at each other face to face.
"Are three moves enough?" Sun Yixie quickly asked again.
"Aren't two moves enough?" Huang Donglai asked next.
"Then let's just do it." Sun Yixie said again.
"Okay." Huang Donglai said, "Just one move."
When he said the word "zhao", the postures of both people changed slightly.
Sun Yixie seemed to have not moved, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that at that moment he had relaxed his whole body, completed his "strength removal", and was ready to explode.
Huang Donglai took half a step back with his left leg, and the index finger of his right hand trembled slightly... as if he was awakening the muscle memory of his fingertips and accumulating strength for the next movement.
The autumn wind is bleak, and the murderous atmosphere is freezing.
The two finally stopped talking and were about to go off; the audience in the audience also held their breath and waited to watch.
Unexpectedly...it was at that critical moment when the tension was at stake and the string was about to collapse.
Sudden!
Sun and Huang both relaxed at the same time.
"Good work, I learned a lesson." Immediately afterwards, Huang Donglai cupped his fists and raised his hands, saying something that seemed to be admitting defeat.
"You're not bad either." Sun Yixie returned the gesture, "I accept."
"please!"
"please!"
They said "please" to each other and then both walked off the stage.
There is no doubt that the audience watching this "competition" were all dumbfounded...
No one knew what had just happened, but everyone seemed to have an idea.
"Could this be the legendary 'predicting the outcome of a duel before taking action'?"
"They...finished their moves in their minds and decided the winner?"
Not to mention the audience, even the judges were a little confused. Some people whispered to each other: "This is Sun Yixie's win, right? We didn't misunderstand, right?"
In fact, these people really think too much...
The scene they just saw was an idea that Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai came up with while picking their teeth after a meal, and most of it was improvised.
The reason for this drama is also very simple - Huang Donglai's symptoms of being unable to perform martial arts have not disappeared after taking Xie Dandan, and he cannot compete with martial arts at all.
Originally, Huang Donglai planned to just abstain when it was his turn, but by chance, his opponent happened to be Brother Sun, so as soon as the two of them combined, let's go on stage and show off.
In this way, it can not only cover up the fact that Huang Donglai abstained from the vote out of desperation, but also improve each other's competitiveness.
Even if someone later sees that they are just acting, it doesn't matter. At most, they will think that the two of them are friends helping each other, and they help the one with the greater hope of promotion to save their physical strength under the premise that one of them is bound to be eliminated; it is impossible for anyone to think that "Huang Donglai can't"
You're lucky." I think about this kind of thing.
Just like that, after this inexplicable farce, Sun Yixie advanced to another round and was already among the top eight.
The opponent Sun Yixie will face in the next eight-to-four match is another "seeded player"; Feng Shunfeng also mentioned this person before, and he was specially invited by Shen Youran outside the big list.
One of several young heroes - the successor of "Cangshan Flying Crane", Liu Yikong.
