"If it had been the day before yesterday, when they first came out, I would have definitely thought Gu An's winning rate was higher.
But after hearing the news yesterday, I feel that Xu Fang’s winning rate is even higher.”
"That's right. After all, I came from the Martial Arts Palace in the capital. I heard that the techniques they have there are more powerful than those here, and the points required to exchange them are also more."
"..."
In the audience, except for the people from the Zhenxie Division, almost everyone was more optimistic about Xu Fang.
That day, two names suddenly appeared in Wu Mansion that they had not heard of before, and they inquired about them.
I learned the identities of Xu Fang and others from some people.
People who go to the capital...
As for the other contestants, they were all ignored.
What a joke, these two are said to have high-level strength, how can others compete with them.
Xu Fang looked at Gu An and smiled, then led the martial arts disciples to the waiting area on the other side.
This scene also fell on the high platform, in the eyes of You Hongming and others.
Lu Yunhang crossed Cui Heng and smiled at You Hongming: "You Qianhu, the competition is about to begin, why don't you go up and say a few words?"
"Palace Master Lu is better at this kind of thing. I'm a rough guy and can't speak, so I won't go." You Hongming said calmly.
Lu Yunhang smiled, looked forward, shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in this matter either. Let City Lord Cui do it."
Cui Heng smiled and said: "In that case, I will go up first."
Cui Heng stood up, bowed his hands to You Hongming and other leaders, and turned around and walked towards the front of the platform.
Some sharp-eyed people in the audience saw Cui Heng coming out and knew that the game was about to start, so they quickly greeted him.
"Quick, be quiet, the game is about to start!"
Those who get closer will calm down while not forgetting to greet the others around them.
Soon, in less than three breaths, everyone became quiet.
Cui Hengxing went to the front of the high platform, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the contestant area below: "The preliminaries ended the day before yesterday, and the selection for the finals begins today.
Let me explain the rules first..."
After about a quarter of an hour, Cui Heng finished explaining.
The one-on-one arena match is divided into upper and lower halves, with the one with the highest points versus the sixteenth, and so on.
Gu An had known all this before. What was important was that Gu An finally knew what the reward mentioned by You Hongming was.
When asking yesterday, You Hongming deliberately let it slip, saying that Gu An would know today.
The third place reward can be obtained by choosing one of the highest level formation patterns and elixirs within Youzhou.
The second place can have both.
What interests Gu An is the reward for first place mentioned by Cui Heng just now.
In addition to the array pattern and elixir rewards, there are also quotas for Daqian Academy!
Dakan Academy is divided into two parts, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Military Affairs.
The Ministry of Culture and Education is located throughout every state, used to teach and educate people and cultivate civil servants.
The military department, on the other hand, is only available in Shangjing City, and is specifically used to cultivate truly strong men for Da Qian.
Each state has a different number of warriors based on its population and warrior base, and has one to three recommendation quotas every three years.
For example, for the population of Youzhou, there is only one quota every three years. If it is Jiangzhou, there are three...
The Military Department of Daqian Academy has all the skills, formation patterns, elixirs and other resources in the entire Daqian.
The instructors are all elites from all walks of life across the country.
Being able to enter the military department means that you have already half-stepped into the solid state.
Because according to the regulations of the Ministry of Armed Forces, if you want to graduate from here, you must pass the test set by the Ministry of Armed Forces.
And this test is set based on the strength of the strong ones in the solidification realm.
Dagan Academy...Martial Arts Department...No wonder...
Gu An couldn't help but look at Xu Fang in the waiting area for the players on the other side.
He also understood at this time that Xu Fang would choose to come here to participate in the conference, probably because he knew about this reward in advance.
In other words, it was to enter the Military Department of Da Gan Academy.
There may be the most places in Beijing, but the competition is also the fiercest.
It is estimated that Xu Fang was not strong enough to get a quota in Shangjing City, so he came to Youzhou to get a quota here.
For him to be able to come here, the people behind him may have paid a high price. After all, they broke the rules...
Gu An had suspicions before, and You Hongming said that the Wu government sent Xu Fang over because the general office of the Suppression and Evil Division did not respond.
But now it seems that the people behind Xu Fang may have used a certain route in the Evil Suppression Department, preventing them from 'not discovering' Xu Fang.
You Hongming probably also knew about it.
In this case, You Hongming also asked himself to defeat Xu Fang and get first place. It is estimated that the higher-ups are preparing to kill...
When he was in Ping'an County before, Gu An asked Zhao Yan for some physical exercises.
According to him, body-training techniques are only available in Shangjing City. It would be good if he could use this competition to get the opportunity to enter Shangjing City and purchase body-training techniques... Gu An thought silently.
After Cui Heng finished speaking, he walked back to the high platform and gave up his position to two referees selected by his own house.
The referee walked to the center of the ring, looked at the wooden board with the battle schedule written on it, and said loudly: "In the first match of the first round, Gu An, the Suppressing Evil Secretary, versus Xu Zhen, the Wufu."
"It finally begins!"
"It's just the first round. Except for the last game in the first round, there's nothing to watch."
"You can't say that. Let's see how many moves Gu An and Xu Fang can withstand against their opponents!"
"Tsk, tsk, I bet Xu Zhen can't survive even three moves in Gu An's hands!"
"..."
Hearing the voice from the audience, Xu Fang crossed his arms and said with a smile, "Xu Zhen, did you hear that?"
"Go back to me, sir, I heard you."
"Now that you heard it, I don't need to teach you what to do."
"Don't worry, young master, what Gu An is good at is defense, I am also good at defense. It's no problem to survive three attacks."
After saying that, Xu Zhen stood up and walked to the left ring.
At the same time, on the right side of the arena, the referee also announced the start of the game, allowing Xu Fang and another disciple from Wufu to take the stage.
Gu An looked at Xu Zhen, who was slowly walking onto the ring not far away, with a smile on his face.
"Contestants from both sides greet each other!"
Gu An and Xu Zhen walked to the center of the ring and bent down to salute.
Just when Xu Zhen was about to get up and walk towards the back, he heard Gu An say.
"Everyone in the audience said you can't survive three moves, but I don't think so."
A smile appeared on Xu Zhen's face, and he cupped his hands and said: "Thank you to Gu Xiaoqi for being considerate, but I still hope that Gu Xiaoqi can do his best and not leave any words to others."
Gu An paused and said with a smile, "Okay!"
Turn around and distance yourself from Xu Zhen.
After each party walked ten feet, they turned to face each other.
Upon seeing this, the referee raised his right hand high and then lowered it.
"start!"
As the words fell, Xu Zhen's eyes became fierce, and a hazy aura surrounded his body.
He instantly pulled out the long knife from his waist, held it across his chest, and made a hand seal with his left hand. A faint yellow aura appeared between his two fingers.
He closed his eyes and muttered something in his mouth. After taking a breath, he suddenly opened his eyes and wiped them away with the long knife.
"Crazy sand!"
Huh~~Huh hoo!
A wisp of yellow smoke came out from the blade, flowing slowly like a stream at first, and then in less than a breath, it suddenly became as turbulent as a river.
The yellow smoke turned into a strong wind about one foot high, wrapping Xu Zhen in it.
"Thick soil!"
Xu Zhen shouted again.
A yellow round shield stands on the chest.
After doing all this, a smile appeared on Xu Zhen's originally slightly nervous face. He was about to say something when he heard Gu An's playful voice coming from the front.
"Are you ready?"
After being stunned for a moment, almost subconsciously, four words blurted out: "Ready."
