The Daqian Heroes List is an official strength evaluation and ranking of the one hundred best practitioners under the age of thirty in the Daqian Empire.
The entire Daqian Empire has a population of over one billion, and the population under the age of thirty will never be less than three or four billion. To select a hundred people from such a large population base, the intensity of competition can be seen.
Once a cultivator is selected into the Heroic List, as long as there is no accidental death in the process, most of them are expected to advance to the Heavenly Wheel and become a high-end force in the entire empire, thereby gaining both fame and wealth, and their future is limitless.
To be included in the list, you must meet at least two hard indicators.
1. Less than thirty years old;
2. Cultivation reaches the fifth level of the Earth Chakra.
Since "Wind Sword" Hu Tianyi is ranked 40th on the list of heroes, his cultivation has naturally reached the realm of above the fifth level of the earth wheel. Looking at Zhong Wen, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old, anyone who looks at him will be surprised. I won't feel any suspense.
Nangong Ling wanted to save her, but Duan Lei and Xie Dingkun were staring closely at her. She knew that the woman in green behind her would never take action for Zhong Wen, so she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
On the side, Master Ning was unable to rescue him due to the rules of the Holy Land. He could only watch as Hu Tianyi's extremely swift sword skills took away Zhong Wen's life.
"puff!"
In the surprised eyes of everyone, Hu Tianyi's broad-bladed knife not only failed to hit Zhong Wen, but instead struck him hard on his left shoulder.
"Ah!" Hu Tianyi let out a scream, and the blade of the knife was embedded in his shoulder, so deep that he almost removed his entire arm.
Zhong Wen made a mistake and appeared in front of Hu Tianyi, reaching out to grab his right arm.
When Hu Tian saw this, he ignored the pain and hurriedly pulled out the broad-bladed knife from his left shoulder and stabbed Zhong Wen in front of him fiercely.
"puff!"
This time, the blade was inserted directly into Hu Tianyi's right leg.
There was another scream. At this time, Hu Tianyi had long lost his previous heroic spirit. Facing such an unpredictable opponent, his heart was filled with fear.
Zhong Wen stretched out his hand and gently made Hu Tianyi's right arm hang down, unable to exert any strength.
Zhong Wen took the opportunity to grab the handle of the broad-bladed knife, raised his foot and kicked Hu Tianyi to the ground. He pulled out the blade and swung it gently to shake off the blood on it.
What a magical skill!
The eyes of Master Ning and the woman in green changed. Zhong Wen's methods far exceeded their imagination.
How old is he that he can actually beat the people on the list of heroes!
Nangong Ling covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.
"Your Excellency has such a powerful method, but Xie is blind." Seeing that his friend was easily knocked over, Xie Dingkun's face suddenly became solemn, and he spread his palms in a posture.
Although he was confident that his strength was superior to Hu Tianyi's, he could not win so easily.
The weird young man in front of him was instantly regarded as his powerful enemy.
"Are you also looking for death?" Zhong Wen sighed when he saw Xie Dingkun taking an attacking stance, and gently raised the broad-bladed knife he had snatched from Hu Tian.
With a knife in his hand, Zhong Wen exuded an unrivaled aura, which actually made Xie Dingkun feel a faint sense of fear in his heart.
He shook his head to calm his mind and put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind.
As a twenty-six-year-old seventh-level earth chakra person, he certainly has the capital to be proud of.
"Drink!" Xie Dingkun's body quickly flew towards Zhong Wen, and a faint sound of thunder and lightning came out from his right palm. His nickname is also his famous stunt, "Thunder Palm"!
Zhong Wen ignored it completely, and just slashed his sword from top to bottom. A stormy wave-like aura came out of the sword and surged toward his opponent like an overwhelming mountain.
An inch long, an inch strong.
The attack distance of the knife is naturally much longer than that of the arm. Xie Dingkun instantly judged that before the "Thunder Palm" of his right hand hit the opponent, he would be hit by the knife first, so he decisively took a step back to avoid the sharp edge temporarily and planned to find another opportunity.
Unexpectedly, after retreating, he no longer had a chance. Zhong Wen's second and third swords followed one after another. The swords were like huge waves, getting faster and stronger.
The Eighteen Wave-breaking Swordsmanship is a powerful sword technique that can cut even huge waves!
Xie Dingkun is not an ordinary Earth Wheel master. With his rich combat experience, he has repeatedly avoided Zhong Wen's attacks. However, after retreating again and again, his route was finally blocked by a giant tree behind him, leaving him with nowhere to go.
hide.
Seeing that Zhong Wen's next blow was about to kill Xie Dingkun, "Fire Cloud Spear" Duan Lei took action.
The fiery red spear, carrying an earth-shattering terrifying momentum, cut through the air and stabbed hard at Zhong Wen's back.
"careful!"
Zhong Wen heard Nangong Ling's warning behind him and did not look back. He gently moved his left hand back.
Duan Lei felt as if the spear in his hand was out of control. It actually changed direction and pierced Xie Dingkun who was leaning against a big tree with an irresistible momentum.
With a soft "pop" sound, the Fire Cloud Spear pierced Xie Dingkun's lower abdomen, impaling him all the way through and nailing him firmly to the tree.
Looking at his friend's shocked eyes, Duan Lei felt dizzy and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw that the broad-bladed knife in Zhong Wen's hand had pierced his chest.
"You...you kid..." Duan Lei opened his mouth to speak, but his whole body was weak and he slowly fell backwards.
Zhong Wen shook off the broad-bladed knife in his hand very coolly, then inserted it into Duan Lei's thigh, clapped his hands, walked to the side, picked up the vegetable basket again, and slung it on his arm.
"Did you just say that you are the cook of Piaohua Palace?" Nangong Ling suddenly said, his voice as sweet as an oriole.
"There are also doctors." Zhong Wen added.
"Do you know who these three people are?" Nangong Ling pointed to the two people who were knocked to the ground by Zhong Wenqian and the one who was nailed to the tree with a spear.
"I don't know. Judging from the situation, they must be a few boring disciples." Zhong Wen shook his head, and his guess was not too far off.
"These three people are ranked 22nd, 32nd and 40th respectively on the Daqian Heroes List. They are well-known young masters, and their future is promising." Nangong Ling told the origins of the three people, A pair of star-like eyes stared at Zhong Wen, "You look like you are only sixteen or seventeen years old, and you easily defeated three masters on the Hero List by yourself, and you still say that you are a cook?"
"There are also doctors." Zhong Wen added again.
"Do you think I will believe it?"
"Sister Nangong, we are under the Piaohua Palace. If I lie, you will be exposed as soon as you go up the mountain. What's the point?" Zhong Wen couldn't help but said, "Sister, I haven't been back to the Piaohua Palace for a long time. Why don't you go up to see the palace first?" Lord, I have to go shopping for groceries, so I won’t accompany you for the time being."
Nangong Ling, who was on the horse, pondered for a moment, suddenly floated down, drew out his long sword and struck it several times quickly, hitting the throats of Duan Lei, Xie Dingkun and Hu Tianyi respectively, killing the three of them, and then took them with him. He said to Zhong Wen in a lecturing tone: "Whether you are the cook of Piaohua Palace or not, you helped me just now. My sister taught you to be good and do your best to eliminate evil. Since you have offended them, don't leave any trouble in the future, so as not to be punished by others in the future." Revenge also involves relatives and friends around me.”
After saying that, without waiting for Zhong Wen to answer, he took the little red horse aside and tied it up, then led the woman in green and walked up the mountain, leaving Zhong Wen behind.
What a great disciple of Piaohua Palace.
Zhong Wen touched his chin, thinking about Nangong Ling's words, and began to reflect on whether he had been a little drifting recently and not cautious enough.
The spiritual skills performed by this young man just now are definitely above the gold level. Could it be that he is a descendant of some holy land?
Master Ning looked at Zhong Wen, then at Nangong Ling and the other two who had already gone up the mountain. After all, he cared about his granddaughter. He sighed and followed up the stairs. He couldn't help but feel more curious about Zhong Wen.
One day, an explosive news suddenly came out, shocking the entire imperial capital.
Xiao Wenjian, the second-ranked Master of the Daqian Heroes, challenged the first-ranked King of Martial Arts, Li Qing.
Nowadays, every corner of the imperial capital, from wealthy officials to peddlers and lackeys, and even young children, are discussing the reliability of this news.
"I heard that Mr. Xiao finally found the sword that he had taken advantage of and started to use the sword again, so he wanted to challenge His Highness King Wu, who is ranked first, to fight for the ownership of this young hero who is the number one in the Daqian."
"I have already said that the reason why His Highness King Wu is ranked first is because Mr. Xiao abandoned his sword and does not use it. As a result, His Highness's first position may not be guaranteed."
"That's nonsense. Back then, when Xiao Wenjian had not given up his sword, the two of them had fought each other. I heard that His Highness King Wu was the winner."
"I don't know if His Highness King Wu will accept the challenge."
"If Mr. Xiao officially issues a challenge, His Highness King Wu must accept the challenge, otherwise the ranking on the list will be automatically updated."
"I must go to the scene to see the duel between these two proud men."
"Tsk, what's so interesting about two men fighting? Why don't you come and see my new work "The Overbearing Emperor Falls in Love with Me"..." The speaker was a gorgeous woman.
The news quickly spread to the surrounding areas with the imperial capital as the center, and gradually spread throughout the country.
Soon, another piece of news was officially released through the "Daqian Bulletin":
King Wu Li Qing accepted Xiao Wenjian's challenge. One month later, the location was set at Yuxiao Villa in the western suburbs of the imperial capital.
The owner of Yuxiao Villa reacted quickly and immediately announced that he would sell the spectator quota for the day of the duel.
Price: One thousand spiritual crystals per person!
