On July 11, Fang Ping fought against a third-level warrior from Yunmeng Military Academy and broke through to the peak of third-level martial arts.
In the next two days, Fang Ping did not show up again.
However, the martial arts world paid attention to these talented warriors, and soon, some news spread.
…
Just as Fang Ping was building up his invincibility on his way north, on July 12th, Qin Fengqing, who had not been seen for many days, appeared in Mowu with fourth-level strength, but soon disappeared from Mowu.
Jingwu Ling Yiyi, who was not well-known before, climbed to the top of the martial arts ranking list in July. Now she is trying the sword in Jingji, and she is very likely to collide with Fang Ping.
Jingwu Li Hansong, following Yao Chengjun, quickly reached the peak of the fourth rank and officially took over the Jingwu Martial Arts Club. He was known as the number one student at Wuhan University.
Mowu Zhangyu, according to the news, has entered the middle of the fourth rank. However, after Li Hansong reached the peak of the fourth rank and the old principal of Mowu died in the battle, the Mowu Martial Arts Society seemed too weak.
There are rumors that Zhang Yu intends to step down as the president of the martial arts club, but it is not Xie Lei or Qin Fengqing who have been speculated by the outside world to take over. According to rumors, Zhang Yu recently invited Chen Wenlong, who was trained in the military, to return to school to serve as the president of the martial arts club.
Chen Wenlong is also a third-year student of Mowu. However, he has been practicing mostly in the military. He is a third-grade martial artist in the same period as Yao Chengjun, Li Hansong, and Wang Jinyang. Now he has entered the high-level fourth grade and is extremely powerful.
Hua Guo Wu Da Liu Shijie entered the fourth level and began to take charge of the Hua Guo Wu Da Martial Arts Club.
Chen Haoran, the master of Jingnan Martial Arts, entered the middle of the fourth rank and took charge of the Jingnan Martial Arts Club.
According to reports, Jin Yang, the King of Nanjiang Wu, has been in the high level of the fourth rank for many days.
…
These are the conditions of current students at Wuhan University, who are either fourth-grade students or truly elite students who are about to enter the fourth grade.
However, since the last graduation, Wuhan University has not had any fifth-level students, and there has been a brief hiatus among fifth-level students.
Who can become the first fifth-grade student at Wuhan University is also the focus of many people's attention.
Li Hansong? Wang Jinyang? Liu Shijie? Or is it the latecomer?
As for Yao Chengjun, he belongs to the military academy system, not the same system as Wuhan University, and is not included in it.
Among them, Mowu, as one of the two famous schools, is extremely embarrassed. The students graduating from Mowu this year are extremely strong. There are several fifth-level students in charge. Even Jingwu is only comparable to Mowu.
However, as many third- and fourth-level students of Mowu died in battle in the past two years, Chen Wenlong, the strongest person now, has only just entered the high-level fourth level.
However, Fang Ping, who has been in the magic martial arts for a year and has broken ranks one after another, and now has reached the peak of the third rank, has also attracted the attention of many people. Can Fang Ping, who has been in the third rank for a year, reverse the situation of the weak strength of the magic martial arts?
…
News in the martial arts world only circulated within one's own circle and did not spread.
At this moment, Fang Ping, who had just entered the peak of the third level, did not continue to go north, but was consolidating himself and digesting the gains.
Of course, in order to reduce the swelling, Fang Ping didn't want to go out to challenge with a pig's head, because he couldn't afford to lose that person.
After breaking through to the peak of the third level, Fang Ping's strength improved again.
"Blood Crazy Sword" has reached the stage of five consecutive cuts, "Vajra Fist" has achieved the integration of fist power, and "Cloud Step" is the first mid-level combat method to enter the Dacheng stage.
In addition, Fang Ping has also mastered the "Blood Arrow Technique", but it is not suitable for sparring. "Blood Arrow Technique" is more suitable for life and death battles in the cave.
On July 13th, Fang Ping practiced repeatedly and truly mastered the combination of boxing power, and then continued on his journey north.
Next stop, Zhongzhou Province!
Beihu has Yunmeng Military Academy, one of the three major military academies.
Zhongzhou Province does not have a military academy, nor does it have a well-known Wuhan University, but it does have a well-known sect!
Not just one, Zhongzhou is the province with the strongest sectarian power.
With the decline of the sect, other places now regard Wuhan University and the Military Department as the most respected.
Only in Zhongzhou, the sectarian power is still relatively strong.
Wangwu Sect, which belongs to the Taoist sect, Shaoshishan and Wanshan Temple, which belongs to the Buddhist sect, as well as large and small sects, there are many sects in Zhongzhou. Throughout China, with the rise of Wuhan University, sects have declined, leaving only two or three sects.
Ten.
In Zhongzhou, there are more than ten sects, accounting for half of them.
Grandmaster Zhao Xingwu, ranked eighth on the grandmaster list, took office as the leader of the sect alliance. Grandmaster Zhao came from the Wangwu Sect.
Zhongzhou also has the entrance to the catacombs, and the entrance to the catacombs in Zhongzhou is mainly guarded by the major sects, which has the same role as the martial arts universities in various places.
…
Fang Ping was the most curious about the sectarian power.
Since practicing martial arts, he is no stranger to warriors from Wuhan University, he is no stranger to warriors from the military department, and he has also met warriors from the Detective Bureau and other departments in the political circles.
Including warriors in the business world, warriors focusing on scientific research...
He has seen all these people.
Fang Ping has not met any sect warriors so far. In the Demon City, there is no room for sects to survive, so there are no sects in the Demon City.
Among the third-level experts who will be challenged this time, there are two sect warriors ranked before Fang Ping, one of whom is from Wanshan Temple of the Buddhist sect.
On the contrary, the Wangwu Sect, where Grandmaster Zhao belongs, and the extremely famous Shaoshi Mountain, do not have any well-known strong men at the third level.
Another third-level sect strongman came from Kyoto, but Kyoto has a sect, which is different from the Demon City.
The third-grade expert from Wanshan Temple was ranked seventh in the overall third-grade list, and Fang Ping did not dare to underestimate him.
Instead of going straight to Wanshan Temple, Fang Ping went to Changyang Village the first time he stepped into Zhongzhou.
Although there are many sects in Zhongzhou, some sects have only three or two kittens and are weak in strength.
Changyang Village sounds like a village, rustic, but this village is a sect, and it is not weak in strength.
There is no grandmaster in Changyang Village, but there is a sixth-grade strongman who is in charge. Among the sects, he is second to none.
In the third-grade general list, there is one person from Changyang Village on the list. He is ranked 15th after Fang Ping, one place behind Chen Jiawang. However, between the top 20 and the top 10, the strength of these people is almost the same. The order of ranking does not mean that
They have played against each other, but it doesn't mean that the 15th player is really worse than the 14th player.
In fact, Fang Ping did not defeat Chen Jiawang. He and Chen Jiawang fought until they were exhausted. Fang Ping was always lagging behind in the early stage. In the later stage, he only slightly saved the situation with his strong physique.
When his energy and blood recovered, Chen Jiawang's energy and blood were exhausted, and Fang Ping had no chance to fight Chen Jiawang again after breaking through to the third level peak.
Fang Ping plans to try this one from Changyang Village before going to Wanshan Temple to challenge the seventh-ranked person.
…
After driving for a long time, Fang Ping arrived at Changyang Village on the afternoon of the 13th.
Although Changyang Village is called a village, it is actually an antique town.
People who practice martial arts are generally not short of money and have a high social status.
Changyang Village has been inherited for many years. Even if you don't care about enjoyment, you won't really find a shabby little mountain village to live in seclusion.
Changyang Village is divided into two parts. Some of the newly built ancient buildings in the front are open to the public. Changyang Village can also be regarded as a small tourist attraction. Although it is already a hot summer, there is still no shortage of tourists.
Entering the boundary of Changyang Village, the first thing you see is the large gatehouse, on which are engraved the three characters "Changyang Village" with flying dragons and phoenixes!
When Fang Ping stepped out of the car, holding a long knife, he attracted the attention of many tourists.
"Is that a warrior?"
"It should be so. Look at the knife. It doesn't look fake."
"I heard that there are many people practicing martial arts in the unopened area behind Changyang Village. Are they martial artists from Changyang Village?"
"I'm not sure, but it looks familiar..."
Among the tourists, some people whispered, but no one dared to approach Fang Ping.
In the eyes of ordinary people, warriors, regardless of their strength, are a privileged class.
Especially in recent years, the government has continued to elevate the status of warriors, and now the polarization has become increasingly serious.
However, there is very little interaction between ordinary people and warriors, and with the threat of cult warriors being made public, some ordinary people who were previously dissatisfied with the status quo are now venting their grievances on these cult warriors.
Fang Ping had no intention of communicating with these people, so he walked into the gatehouse and stepped onto the street paved with bluestone slabs.
There are shops on both sides of the street, selling special snacks and tourist souvenirs...it's very lively.
"Is such a noisy environment really suitable for martial arts training?"
Fang Ping was confused. Whether it was Wuhan University or the military academy, they were all located in quiet areas and generally not open to the public.
Mowu is so big, many times you won’t be able to see anyone even if you walk for a long time.
When practicing martial arts, I am actually afraid that my mind will be distracted and easily distracted.
Mowu is located in a big city like Modu, and it is quiet and peaceful inside. However, the Changyang Village sect actually opened its sect in a tourist attraction, and also took the initiative to develop and open it. This was somewhat beyond Fang Ping's expectations.
In his imagination, the sect should be established in the deep mountains and old forests.
In fact, Fang Ping got it wrong. Warriors also have to eat, drink, and have sex. Unlike Wuhan University, which has government funding, the sect can actually get some subsidies from the government, but it is very small.
There are not many warriors in these sects, but they still need to eat, drink, and defecate. Warriors rarely do these things by themselves. As well as some daily life expenses and training expenses, they cannot all be expected to be harvested in the caves. Some warriors lack financial resources and often
Semi-opening of Yangcun to the tourism industry is also a way out.
Not only the tourism industry, but also in Changyang Village, Fang Ping saw recruitment advertisements for martial arts training classes.
Martial arts training classes are also opened here, which is also a good and profitable business. A fourth-grade martial artist can just sit here and the tuition fee ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions, but there is still no shortage of students.
A large number of ordinary people who failed to enter Wuhan University when they were young will pursue becoming martial artists when they make money.
Changyang Village relies on the peripheral tourism industry to attract people, letting more people know that there are martial arts training classes here, thereby attracting more people from society to sign up. This is the main source of maintaining Changyang Village's daily practice consumption.
Fang Ping walked on the street, holding a Guan Dao, which also attracted many people's attention.
Not long after walking, Fang Ping stopped in front of a small building with a plaque hanging "Changyang Martial Arts Training Center".
As soon as he stopped, a middle-aged man wearing black martial arts training uniform walked out after a while.
The middle-aged man had a mustache and a majestic look on his face. He looked at Fang Ping with a little fear in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Is the little brother passing by or coming here to play?"
As soon as these words came out, many people in the hall on the first floor of the small building turned their heads and looked over.
On the street, there were also some tourists watching from a distance.
Fang Ping looked at the middle-aged man for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's not about playing in the gym, nor just passing by. I want to enter Changyang Village."
He was already in Changyang Village at the moment, but he said he wanted to enter Changyang Village. The middle-aged mustache was not surprising, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Go to the village to find someone?"
"I am Mo Wu Fang Ping. I am from Mo Wu. I would like to learn from Senior Brother Zhang Zhenhua."
"Mowu Fangping!"
The middle-aged man with a mustache instantly knew who the other party was and what his purpose was.
However, the middle-aged man immediately became angry and gritted his teeth and said: "We in Changyang Village do not compete with others for fame and wealth! The sect is weak and the Wuhan University is strong. We have retreated again and again, but you have come to our door several times!
Last year, Nanwu King Jinyang severely injured Zhenhua, leaving Zhenhua stuck at the peak of the third rank and unable to reach the fourth rank.
Now, you come to challenge me again, you really think that I, Changyang Village, are easy to bully!"
Fang Ping was stunned, I didn’t know!
Are you venting your anger on me?
I was wronged too!
Is Old Man Li here?
Before leaving, he called Old Man Li. If he didn't come, the people of Changyang Village wouldn't sacrifice themselves with a flag, right?
Also...Lao Wang also challenged Zhang Zhenhua?
This guy told himself before that before he came to the sect, it was best to bring a magic martial arts instructor with him. Isn't it because he knew something like this would happen?
Very possible!
He, Wang Jinyang, also followed this road all the way north. Although he did not challenge too many powerful players in the rankings, he was not without any. Others were at the peak of the third level before, but now less than a year later, they are still at the peak of the third level. It is normal.
thing.
If you go north all the way, you won't be implicated by Lao Wang, right?
Fang Ping didn't know what to do for a while, but soon, Fang Ping took a breath and said: "I am only here for the challenge, and I have no intention of bullying. Warriors should compete for fame and fortune. Zhang Zhenhua is ranked third grade.
It's at the top of the combat power list. It's no surprise that I challenge you.
Uncle, why don’t you inform me that Zhang Zhenhua, as a third-level warrior who is about to enter the fourth level, doesn’t even have the guts to fight?”
"snort!"
The mustached man snorted heavily, glanced at Fang Ping, and said coldly: "Okay, since you insist on challenging me, I from Changyang Village are not afraid of trouble!
But you take the initiative to challenge, in the sect, you are different from your Wuhan University!
If you lose, keep the lottery tip and your Guandao!"
Fang Ping's face changed slightly, and his mustache said calmly: "What? You don't dare? If you don't dare, then leave! Changyang Village has no obligation to be your opponent. Since you want to challenge, you will naturally have to pay the price!"
Fang Ping took a deep breath and said, "Then what if I win?"
"If you win, your goal will be achieved. What else do you want?"
The mustached man sneered and continued: "If there is no chance of winning, I advise you to leave. If you lose the weapon in the competition, you won't be able to get it back even if your magic martial arts master comes to visit!"
Fang Ping did not hesitate for too long and said in a deep voice: "Okay!"
This trip to the north is just to become stronger. If you are timid and timid before fighting, the top ten warriors will not challenge it.
As for losing... Fang Ping snorted, how is that possible!
When the time comes, don't blame yourself for cheating. Although this is not in line with your original intention, the B-level Yanyue Sword is worth fifty to sixty million, and Fang Ping cannot afford to lose it!
Hearing Fang Ping's agreement, the mustached man laughed and said, "Okay, come with me!"
After saying that, the mustache turned around and looked at everyone in the martial arts hall and said: "You are lucky this time. Come with me and let you see a real warrior fight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the students in the martial arts hall burst into laughter.
In the martial arts training hall, everyone's goal is just to become a martial artist. In the non-martial arts stage, not to mention watching the martial arts fight, there are not many martial arts in sight.
Some of their teachings are actually for non-martialists. Unless you make a breakthrough, there will be middle-grade warriors from Changyang Village to protect the way.
Now, it is a rare opportunity for them to witness a third-grade battle.
Fang Ping hesitated to speak... You are using me as free advertising. Have you paid me any endorsement fees?
However, considering that it was someone else's territory, Fang Ping still didn't say anything. Forget it, write down this account. Changyang Village owes him an advertising fee, and he will ask for it when he has the strength.
