It was already a little late when Xu Qing brought Xiao Ruxue and Long Bing'er over.
The reason is that Long Bing'er stayed in bed today, and it was Xiao Ruxue who suffered.
Yesterday she slept with Xiao Ruxue, and when she woke up, she almost couldn't breathe while hugging Xiao Ruxue.
Xiao Ruxue was also very lucky that yesterday only Sister Bing'er wore white clothes and nothing else.
Fortunately, the distance from Taoyuan Inn to Mingjia is not too far.
So they are not late.
Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue checked the number plates, and when they walked into the gate of the Ming family, they were already surrounded by people. These were all casual cultivators and people from small martial arts sects who came to watch.
Since they have been eliminated in advance, there will naturally be no seats for them in the venue, so they can only stand on the outside to see the true splendor of the martial arts conference.
This martial arts conference only has 300 people including the five major sects and the casual cultivators.
There are five major sects in the Central Plains: Ming Family, Poisonous Scorpion Sect, Iron Armor Sect, Armor Gang, and Black Tiger Gang.
However, this competition for the leader of the martial arts tournament has nothing to do with the Black Tiger Gang. They have now been reduced to a second-rate force in the martial arts world. This time they are here to win the sympathy of the martial arts world.
Because the Black Tiger Gang had been almost wiped out by Xu Chen and the Shadow Guards in Fengzhou. Although the gang leader was not dead, his vitality was severely damaged, so he did some behind-the-scenes teaching.
This time the Black Tiger Gang came here to revive the reputation of the Black Tiger Gang and attract some new members. However, it may be difficult for the Black Tiger Gang to restore its former glory as a martial arts sect.
Severe damage to vitality cannot be repaired overnight.
As for the Black Tiger Gang's encounter, few people in the world shed tears.
Chivalry is valued in the martial arts world. Even if you do some shameful things secretly, on the surface you must be upright and help those in need.
In this way, the gang will be recognized by the world of martial arts, and will be more easily accepted by the world, thus growing stronger, and the Ming family is no exception.
However, there are two gangs in the Central Plains martial arts sect that are different.
Those are the Scorpion Sect and the Black Tiger Gang.
These two sects are both good and evil in the world of martial arts. They absorb both ordinary cultivators in the martial arts world and the ruthless and swaggering villains in the martial arts world.
Good deeds and evil deeds are done just as they are done, and they never cover it up. Maybe they are too lazy to cover up.
Some people say they are vicious, while others say they are upright.
However, these two gangs still go their own way and never pay attention to the opinions of people in the world.
Therefore, when the Black Tiger Gang was almost wiped out, few people in the world shed tears, and most of them even clapped their hands and cheered.
However, the Black Tiger Gang is easy to destroy, but the Scorpion Sect is not easy.
The Poisonous Scorpion Sect is good at using hidden weapons. During the fight, it will sting you like a scorpion from time to time. The word "above and aboveboard" has basically nothing to do with them.
Although few people from the Jianghu sect like the Scorpion Sect, they don't dare to turn against them easily.
Because they will retaliate, and they may reach out to prick you with their thorns at some point.
Moreover, the Poisonous Scorpion Sect is far more powerful than the Black Tiger Gang, and its disciples are widely spread throughout the world.
In this martial arts competition, what they fear most is fighting with the people from the Poisonous Scorpion Sect.
Although the various sects have long agreed that this competition must be won in a fair and just way, and no poison or hidden weapons are allowed to be used, but for the Poisonous Scorpion Sect, a gang that is both good and evil, it may be difficult to restrain it.
The Poisonous Scorpion Sect is powerful and has many disciples, so if you want to be elected as the leader of the martial arts alliance, you cannot avoid them.
In this case, you can only seek blessings from yourself.
…
Wei Xiong, Wei Heng and Liu Chong were sitting together.
Wei Heng handed a piece of paper to Liu Chong and whispered: "General, take a look at this."
Liu Chong took it and what was written on the paper were the characteristics of the five major sects in Jianghu, and even included some minor sects in Jianghu.
Of course, these small sects can be ignored, because the shadow guards have eliminated them in advance.
This piece of paper was copied from the leader's hand. Every shadow guard who comes to compete will know it by heart so that it is easier to deal with it.
Liu Chong read the contents of this piece of paper carefully. Although he had few opponents in his life, there were many hidden masters in the world, so he must not underestimate his enemies.
Xu Qing did not sit in the same place with Liu Chong, but took the little girl and Long Bing'er to sit on the other side.
Because Xu Qing was afraid that Liu Chong would be nervous if Princess Yongle sat next to him.
After all, where are the royal relatives...
…
At this time, Ming Xun was sitting on a large chair. Looking at the "casual cultivators" sitting around him, he couldn't help but nodded slightly, with a smile on his face.
This time he held a martial arts conference and invited these martial arts practitioners and small sects to come here in order to attract outstanding juniors in the martial arts to join the Ming family and cultivate talents and reserve generals for future uprisings.
The quality of these casual cultivators was much higher than he imagined.
The lower part of the body is calm, sitting upright like a bell, not angry and assertive, and the breath is restrained.
Even many of his disciples are far from him, only his close guards can compare with them.
There is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in the arena!
Just when Mingxun smiled and sighed silently, a terrible thought suddenly came into his mind. Then he trembled and his eyes once again glanced at these so-called "casual cultivators", their appearance, sitting posture, demeanor, momentum, and even the tiger's mouth on their hands.
Calluses everywhere...
The more Ming Xun looked at it, the more frightened he became.
He was the Ming King of Zhao State. He had seen the army, even led troops and fought in battles. He naturally knew the characteristics of elite soldiers.
Now, the two hundred people sitting in the field besides the martial arts sect...
Where are they from being rogue cultivators, and where are they from being small martial arts sects?
They...they are clearly an elite army!
Very elite!
There is only one army in Chu State that can achieve such an elite level, and that is the Shadow Guards of Chu State, commanded by the wise king!
Now in the Ming family compound, there are nearly two hundred shadow guards sitting next to the ring!
The number plates that day were all wrapped up by the shadow guards?!
Now in the Ming family compound, the total number of people sent by the five major Jianghu factions is only a hundred, but the Shadow Guards have come to two hundred people.
The most powerful thing about an army is not its ability to fight alone, but the various military formations and tactics formed by cooperating with each other.
Shadow guards disguised as casual cultivators are sitting around at this moment, and all of them are carrying weapons. If they suddenly attack, who among them can stop the charge of two hundred shadow guards?
What on earth was the Chu court planning?
Even the Chu State's court wanted to compete for the leader of the martial arts alliance, so they could just send a few people, and there was no need for such a large battle.
Do they want to take advantage of this martial arts conference to wipe out all the major factions in the martial arts world, thereby causing chaos in the world? There will be no leader?
But this is impossible. There are still a large number of people from all walks of life who come to watch. They must not dare to make a big show, let alone use the military formation without authorization.
