Time flies and the day comes for the opening of the conference. On this day, Zhujian Villa looks like a tourist attraction for later generations.
"I still don't quite understand the enthusiasm of these Jianghu people for sword manuals. Feng Beard ranks the world's famous swords. His face is really big, but there are so many people licking it." Lu Yan looked at the huge crowds here today and said,
Scratched his head.
Ju Shuang and Lu Yan stood together. With their ability, they would not be crowded, but this crowded feeling was very uncomfortable.
She looked at the scene and said thoughtfully: "As you said, young master, the name of this world is in the hands of a few people. Do you think there are many schools of thought who care about this sword manual? How many are there?
Individual travelers from all walks of life."
"That's right, two or three people from the peasant family and the Confucian family came here as a token, and the Taoist family didn't even see a shadow. Only the unlucky Mo family had to come." Lu Yan agreed with what Ju Shuang said, and added
I complained about this so-called ranking, "The Confucian leader Meng Si's Tai'a ranked second, the Taoist inherited sword Xue Ji ranked fourth, and the general Mo Xie ranked third without anyone in charge. I simply don't understand the standards of this bullshit ranking.
.”
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something, "Huh? Tianwen, who has always been at the top of the sword spectrum, what kind of sword is it?"
Ju Shuang replied: "I don't know. No one in the whole world has seen that sword. It is said that it is stored in the palace of the King of Chu. It was once the sword of Qu Yuan, the doctor of Sanlu."
"Qu Yuan, "Tianwen"..."
"Luo Wang once searched for famous swords in the world, and this Tianwen was also one of the targets, but in the end he gave up for some unknown reason.
When Qu Yuan presided over the reform of the Chu State, the King of Chu personally invited the best swordsmiths in the world to make swords for Qu Yuan as a sign of authority.
It is said that when the sword was completed, the world was moved. Qu Yuan held this sword and rose to the sky in one step from a scholar to a master with incredible power. Later, Qu Yuan was exiled and the sword was taken back, but no one could make it shine."
Qu Yuan's "Tian Wen", in this world with the power of fantasy, if the Tian Wen Sword is really named after Qu Yuan's "Tian Wen", then it is well deserved to be the first in the sword manual.
"Tianwen" is a collection of Qu Yuan's thoughts and theories. It asks questions about strange things and major events that cannot be explained in ancient legends.
"Said", all this is included in "Tianwen".
The whole article can be roughly divided into two parts, one is about the universe and nature; the other is about the rise and fall of human affairs.
How are the celestial bodies in the universe born, and what is the reason for the change of yin and yang? Why do the sun, moon and stars not fall? How many miles does the sun travel every day? Why does the moon wax and wane? Why does the sea water not rise when the great rivers flow into the sea? How can we survive?
The earth is exploring in all directions, southeast, northwest, how long is the unknown land?
The second part is Qu Yuan's political opinions based on his own insights into the current political situation, his views on good and evil, good and evil, success and failure, rise and fall of historical politics recorded in ancient times to the present.
Tianwen asks about the origin of everything in the universe, and how people face the vast world; it asks about the process and changes of human society, and how people deal with themselves in the grand history.
"It's a pity that I couldn't be in the same era as Qu Yuan, a divine sword that points to the origin of the world. I really want to witness it with my own eyes." Lu Yan deeply regretted this.
However, after all, the conversation between the two of them was heard by many people in public, causing a burst of ridicule.
"It's a mess, what are you talking about? The reason why Tianwen has always been the number one in swordsmanship is because it is the strongest sword. Saying such incomprehensible words is beyond stupid."
"That's right, who do you think you are? You are talking so loudly here without any shame."
"Hey, seeing as you speak so eloquently, you must be a character. After the sword competition begins, let's go to the ring and make gestures. The butcher's sword in my hand is also a rare sword within a thousand miles."
"Hahaha, come on, Butcher Zhang, I'm afraid your Butcher's Sword will be cut off as soon as you come on stage."
After taking a look at these guys, who were all different in height, fat and thin, I had no interest in getting into trouble with them and just walked away.
"stop!"
"Um?"
Butcher Zhang held the sword in front of him and shouted loudly: "This is a sword competition. As a swordsman, I invite you to fight, but you run away without fighting!"
The voice that sounded like a broken gong attracted many people to look over, curious about what was going on here.
Lu Yan felt agitated in his heart, just like swatting a fly. The one who was disgusted was the one who swatted the fly to death.
With a move of his hand, the butcher's sword was drawn into his hand by internal force. As he clenched his fist, the internal force forcibly broke the sword into two pieces.
"I'm too lazy to kill you. If you want to die, please do it yourself."
Butcher Zhang lay on the ground picking up the fragments, with tears in his eyes, "Ah~ This sword I spent a lot of money to make~"
Lu Yan turned around and left with Ju Shuang, leaving behind a bunch of dumbfounded sidekicks.
"It's amazing. You can see a master with profound internal skills everywhere."
"I wonder how exciting the sword fights will be in the future."
Amidst the commotion, the Xiangjian Conference finally ushered in.
"Look, Senior Fengbeard is out."
"There are also Mohists, farmers, and Confucians... That's Mrs. Xu, the master swordsmith!"
"Hey, what I want to see most is the internal strife in the Mo family."
"That's the Iron Blood Alliance as a notary. It's so powerful."
All the protagonists have arrived, and Feng Beard, as the organizer, stood up and saluted everyone, "I, Feng Beard, would like to thank all the heroes and heroines from all walks of life for taking the trouble to come to this sword competition.
In this conference, we will first witness the Canhong Sword made by two sword masters of the Mohist family, and the Yuguang Sword, a brave sword used to assassinate the King of Wu hundreds of years ago. Who is the strongest between the two? The Iron Blood Alliance will
As a notary, execute the bet between two master swordsmiths.
After that, our Sword Forging Villa will provide an arena for everyone. Anyone who has confidence in the sword in his hand can challenge it. Based on the casting process of the sword in his hand and the strength of the sword owner, I will rearrange the rankings in the sword manual.
In the past few years, the world has been turbulent, and there are countless new generations of young swordsmen who have emerged. This conference is an opportunity for you to catch up with the previous wave and become famous all over the world.
All of you, sons and daughters of Jianghu, let the sword in your hand speak for itself. The Swordsmanship Conference has officially begun!"
The audience burst into deafening cheers, and many swordsmen were excited and eager to move, staring at the high platform above.
The members of the Iron-Blooded Alliance wear standard dark gold armor and have masks on their faces. Twelve people form an Iron-Blooded Formation;
The couple, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu, each stood on both sides of the high platform; the Six-fingered Black Man and Mrs. Xu stood helplessly on the side of the platform.
"I will prove here that my sword-making skills are the best in the world." Mrs. Xu looked at her husband's eyes. There was no friendship, only deep resentment. The blood-red sword energy of the Canhong Sword in his hand scraped the iron-blooded alliance.
The armors of several people made loud noises.
Mrs. Xu didn't say anything. She took the Fish Intestine Sword from the Iron Blood Alliance and closed her eyes slightly. "Come on, all grudges will be settled today."
The sword energy of the Yuchang Sword was clear and pale, and there was no movement like that of Can Hong, but it made the pupils of the Iron Blood Alliance people standing here shrink.
The location where Lu Yan was standing was still far away from the high platform, but with his eyesight, he could still see the clues.
"What's going on? Are these two people really a couple? Why are both parties determined to fight to the death..."
