Chapter 50 Differences between Europeans and Africans
Lou Cheng had the intention to call his master to report the good news and report on his martial arts progress, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait until all his competitions were over. Then he could ask his master for advice based on the lessons learned.
While watching the competition, he was still like a sponge, eagerly absorbing the essence of other people's martial arts and fighting styles. At the same time, he leisurely browsed the forum posts* during conversation time and rest time.
In the live broadcast post of the "Dragon Tiger Club" forum, "One Punch Invincible" posted the video link of Lou Cheng's morning game, and said with a long sigh: "I feel like I can't understand him more and more. He is today
His listening skills are simply beyond my reach.”
Feeling sour again, Lou Cheng scrolled down to see other replies.
For a low-level event like the "Phoenix Cup Xiao Wu Sheng Arena Tournament", once there are no forum friends as "bait", other people are not very interested or have the energy to pay attention. It took more than three hours for the video link to be posted.
, only a few people have seen it and made comments, most of them just casually commented on it, making fun of the half-naked photo of "one punch invincible".
"Plumber Eats Mushrooms" is one of the rare fans who has actually watched the video. He replied: "This 'Ting Jin' hand is amazing. I have seen many ninth-level professions, and there is one in the direct biography of the big sect."
For two people with this level, if he can make up for his shortcomings in a targeted manner, in a year at most and at least half a year, he will definitely be able to pass the final product competition and step into the ranks of the ninth-level professional."
Thank you for the compliment... Lou Cheng tried his best not to smile.
"Songda Martial Arts Club's competition is worth looking forward to, but their competition area includes two mountains, Shanbei and Sanjiang. Unless these two major martial arts clubs meet in advance, they still have no hope of entering the national competition." "The Unparalleled Dragon King" also expressed his approval.
The tone said.
The moderator "Pig Riding Hero" also commented: "Hey, maybe we have seen the first appearance of a powerful Waigang warrior in the future (manual comedy)."
The little girl from "Huan Fan" who had just finished taking the exam replied with a star-studded expression in her eyes: "What a cool fight! I'm hesitant to ask Uncle Ring to get an autograph for me, maybe it's like Uncle Riding a Pig said
How about that? From now on, this first signature will have special meaning!"
"No, I can't help but look like this, and how can Wai Gang be so successful? Peng Leyun and Ren Li both entered the Dan Qi realm when they were eighteen years old, reaching the eighth level of their profession, not to mention the person from Daxing Temple who is said to be the reincarnation of the Living Buddha.
"A monk." "Road to the Arena" did not hesitate to give up the dream of little girl Huan Fan.
Peng Leyun... Ren Li... Ever since he came into contact with the University Martial Arts Club, these two names have appeared in Lou Cheng's ears and eyes over and over again, which made him quite touched. Unfortunately, this year, the Songda Martial Arts Club was swept away by Xu Wannian, and there was no one left.
You can see Peng Leyun's skills live.
After reading the reply, Lou Cheng continued to focus on the game. By the fifth round, strong collisions could be seen everywhere. There were even four professional ninth-level masters who met in a narrow road before the group stage. The fight was so exciting that it was very exciting.
It's so satisfying.
This also made Lou Cheng gain a lot. His mind was filled with the scenes of their fights, and his heart was filled with passion. He wanted to find a secluded place to practice martial arts immediately. Unfortunately, after this round of competition, there will be a draw for the group stage immediately.
During the ceremony and corresponding activities, the contestant who had a bye could not leave. He had no choice but to stick to his temper and continue to watch and learn from other people's battles.
At the end, Lou Cheng also watched the "Road to the Arena" competition. He had a tough fight with a first-class amateur martial artist and relied on the roaring eight-shaped explosive move to win. However, it can be found that "Road to the Arena"
"The unfamiliarity between the fists and feet has disappeared, the force is no longer awkward, and it has returned to 70% to 80% of the level of its heyday. However, the problem of physical strength still exists, and it was exposed in two games in one day, otherwise this battle would not be like this.
Anxious.
At 4:50, the fifth round of fighting came to an end, and the top thirty-two warriors of this year's Little Martial Saint Arena Competition were all decided.
These are the thirty-two most outstanding contestants among the eight or nine hundred contestants, and Lou Cheng is among them!
The proportion of less than 5% made Lou Cheng feel full of pride. Although he had the luck of the bye and the endurance provided by the golden elixir, what was more important was the step-by-step improvement of his martial arts, both in terms of mentality and strength.
of rebirth.
The staff busily set up the central arena, set up tables and several lottery boxes, and invited hosts and lively singers and dancers.
After a period of excitement, the host invited the guests to draw lots. There were three guests in total. One was the mayor of Yanling City, the other was the president of the Yanling Martial Arts Association, a former professional fourth-level expert, and the other was this person.
Liu Zunyu, the chairman of Yanyu Group, the organizer of this competition, is an outer disciple of the top power Kongtong Academy and an enthusiastic fan of martial arts. Most industries are inextricably linked to Kongtong Academy, spanning medicine and security.
, real estate and other fields.
According to the rules of the Xiaowu Sheng Arena, the eight seed players will be determined first, and will be judged based on their rank and performance in the previous games, so as to avoid the strongest ones from colliding in advance in the group stage, which will make the subsequent top 16 and eight
Strong, overshadowed by the semi-finals battle.
There is not much doubt that Huang Zhenzhong and Jiang Lan, two masters of the Dan Qi Realm of the eighth level of the profession, and Ye Youting, Bai Song, Wang Ye and other outstanding figures of the ninth level of the profession have become the seed players. The audience expressed their approval with applause, and then, the city*
The director starts drawing lots, drawing people first and then groups to determine which group they are in.
"Huang Zhenzhong, second group..."
"Jiang Lan, the fifth group..."
"Ye Youting, the third group..."
"Bai Song, Group 8..."
"Wang Ye, the fourth group..."
"Li Xiaoyuan, Group Six..."
…
As each name was announced, the competition highlights of these eight warriors began to scroll on various large screens, allowing the audience to quickly understand and increase their interest.
Lou Cheng was dazzled by what he saw and was amazed. He even recorded the highlights on his mobile phone.
After a passionate song and dance, the president of the Yanling Martial Arts Association came to the lottery box containing the names of the remaining ninth-level professions. He also drew the names first, and then the groups.
There are only six professional ninth-level players left, which means that there will be two groups that belong to the weak group, and amateur warriors can compete for the top sixteen spots!
Lou Cheng's matter was none of his own, so he hung up and listened leisurely and calmly to the announcements made by the president of the Yanling Martial Arts Association:
"Gu Jiajie, the third team..."
"Qi Fei, Team Six..."
"Zhou Yuanning, the fourth group..."
…
With the remaining six professional ninth-level players drawn, the first group and the seventh group became a veritable weak group, making every amateur martial artist pray that he would get the lottery.
Lou Chengyi became slightly nervous. He had never expected to be among the top 16 and receive bonuses, but he had already entered the group stage. Why not dream about it? Maybe it would be a good fortune? The Africans (black hands) and
Europeans (white hands) are different!
The 5,000-yuan bonus was simply too tempting for him who was short of money. Like a beggar who had been hungry for several days and smelled the aroma of meat, his eyes glowed green - even though he still had the little private money he had saved.
, but in case of emergencies, these five thousand yuan will be a dating fund!
The president of the Yanling Martial Arts Association drew two contestants from the last lottery box, one amateur first grade and one amateur second grade, and entered the first and seventh groups respectively.
As soon as the results came out, Lou Cheng even heard someone nearby cheering in low voices, and felt slightly disappointed.
Next came another song and dance so that the audience could enjoy the highlights of the second batch of eight contestants. Based on the idea that they were likely to be his opponents, Lou Cheng watched it very seriously.
The last round of drawing began. Liu Zunyu, chairman of Yanyu Group, made a speech before putting his hand into the drawing box.
Lou Cheng's heart lifted a little, and he felt more nervous than fighting.
"No. 656, Lou Cheng..." Liu Zunyu said as he read the first player he drew. Because the number of players was smaller than the number of professional ninth-level players, the audience would be more familiar with it, so he specially added a number.
Boom, boom, boom, Lou Cheng's heartbeat quickened suddenly. He didn't expect that he would be the first one. Which group would it be?
As soon as his name was read out, there was quite a warm applause from the stands, and he was treated like the ninth-level professional in the past.
Liu Zunyu smiled slightly and was very satisfied with the audience's response. He reached out and pulled out the group from another box:
"Fourth group!"
The fourth group? Wang Ye, a young man with iron sand palms who placed his hands flat on his knees, raised his eyebrows. "Road to the Arena" Zhou Yuanning's face became a little more solemn.
Group 4? Lou Cheng stared in astonishment, a little unable to believe his ears.
Doesn’t this count as enemies not getting together? I have encountered a forum friend again!
Moreover, another contestant stayed in the same hotel as me, which was simply a "fateful team"!
This result of the lottery surprised him but also gave him a hint of joy. Although it was not as good as the first and seventh lottery, it was still considered a mid-range choice. Among the ninth-level professions, the "Road to the Arena" was the weakest.
that!
"One Punch Invincible" glanced at "Road to the Arena" worriedly:
"Master Lu, Lou Cheng is difficult to deal with."
"I know, I will pay more attention to him." "Road to the Arena" Zhou Yuanning relaxed his fists.
After finishing speaking, he saw that "One Punch Invincible"'s face was still solemn and full of worry, so he chuckled and said:
"Don't worry, as long as I pay attention, Lou Cheng will not be my opponent."
On the other side, Lou Cheng resisted the urge to chuckle and send a message to Yan Zheke, waiting for the last contestant of the fourth group to be drawn, so as not to get too carried away and become extremely happy and sad.
Players were drawn out one after another, filling each group. After a long time, Lou Cheng finally heard the words "Group 4".
"No. 245, Tang Yue..." Lou Cheng read the name of the fourth warrior and carefully watched the competition highlights and introductions of each warrior scrolling on the big screen.
"Well, he is a first-class amateur master..." After whispering, he put away his joy and felt that it was quite difficult to appear in this group. If he was not careful, he would make wedding dresses for others, such as himself and "The Arena"
"Road to the Road" is a fight in which both sides suffer losses.
Of course, it is much better than the other five groups.
After recording the video of the match between Tang Yue, Zhou Yuanning and Wang Ye, Lou Cheng sent a message to Yan Zheke, saying with a snickering expression: "Your character continues to shine, I have drawn a relatively weak group.
, the professional ninth grade, the amateur first grade, and the professional ninth grade who hasn’t played much competition in a few years.”
After sending it, he went to the service desk to get more detailed information about the three warriors, as well as the follow-up schedule. He found out that he would face Wang Ye tomorrow afternoon, Tang Yue the day after tomorrow, and Zhou Yuanning, the "road to the arena" the day after tomorrow!
"Loucheng, come on! We all hope you will be in the top 16!" Several girls at the service desk made cheering gestures.
Lou Cheng smiled and said gently:
"Try not to let you down."
Yes, we have come to this point. As a warrior, how can we give up easily?
