Chapter 023
Ling Hu, nineteen years old, a high-ranking mystic for the first time, practicing the gray-level mysterious skill Tiger Art, good at boxing, extremely powerful, ranked fifth in last year's competition, his strength is evident.
Ling Guang, 20 years old, has just entered the middle-level profound practitioner, and practiced the gray-level profound skill Heavy Sword Jue. Last year, with the strength of the low-level profound practitioner, he ranked tenth. Now that he has broken through again, he thought he could at least rise two places , I didn't expect to meet Ling Hu who had broken through to a high-level profound practitioner at the very beginning, and I secretly called it bad luck.
On the edge of the arena, the patriarch and all the elders sat on the sidelines to watch the strongest competition of the younger generation.
After Ninth Elder Ling Fujian explained some competition rules, he announced the start of the competition.
Ling Guang arched his hands and said to Ling Hu, "Please be merciful".
Ling Hu said politely, "Please!".
As soon as Ling Hu's words fell, Ling Guang kicked his feet, and he rushed out in vain. His movements were extremely fast, like a cheetah preying on prey, making it hard to guard against.
When he was approaching Ling Hu, he put one hand behind his back and slashed with the heavy saber.
Ling Guang is a direct descendant of the Ling family, and his status is not low. What he used was a first-rank mid-level broadsword, which followed him like a shadow, and slashed towards Ling Hu's forehead.
Everyone in the audience exclaimed, no one expected that Ling Guang would catch him by surprise, strike first, and the speed was so fast that it made people speechless.
The heavy knife slashed at the head gave off a cold breath, and a profound practitioner of the same level would probably be shocked.
However, Ling Hu was one rank higher than Ling Guang, and he had a lot of experience in facing the enemy, so he calmly raised his hands to meet them.
The children of the Ling family who had never seen Ling Zhan make a move all exclaimed.
"He didn't want to die, he dared to catch Ling Guang's heavy knife with his bare hands."
"Maybe he thinks too much of himself, thinking that he can easily win the victory by a small rank. It seems that his hands are going to be useless."
"What do you know, don't you see what Linghu is wearing on his hands? You are really ignorant idiots."
...
Ling Hu is not insane, if he didn't have the confidence to take the knife, he would never dare to take Ling Guang's knife with both hands, because he wears his unique weapon on both hands, the first-level high-level gold silk gloves, which are said to be used It is made of the animal skin of the second-level mountain-mounting beast, and the low-level weapons cannot be damaged in the slightest. That's why Ling Hu dared to take the opponent's knife with both hands.
However, Ling Guang seemed to have expected it, the knife that was about to hit Ling Hu's face suddenly changed direction and wiped it towards Ling Hu's neck.
This change was unexpected, and everyone in the audience was surprised, while the elders on the viewing platform expressed their admiration one after another, as if they were very satisfied with Ling Guang's change.
Ling Hu frowned, shouted "Good job", and then blocked with his left hand backhand.
"Ding" weapons staggered.
Under the full force of the heavy knife, Ling Hu stepped back a little bit, but his left hand was not damaged at all, which shows that his gold silk glove is really extraordinary.
Seeing that the knife failed, Ling Guang yelled, "Heavy knife has no shadow".
When the forceful move was made, countless sword shadows covered Ling Hu's body. Before the sword move arrived, there was already a painful blade glow.
This is Ling Guang's strongest move at present. He is not even a little behind Ling Hu, so he went all out from the beginning, and before Ling Hu did not make a real move, he was able to defeat Ling Hu by surprise.
The disciples of the Ling family screamed again on the sidelines. The people in the audience are basically at the martial arts level. They can see the competition of the mysterious level, which is of great benefit to them. Chance.
Ling Xiao looked at Ling Guang's saber move from the side, and murmured, "This move doesn't seem to be weak, but it's just a fake show. If you use it with a sword, it's almost the same. The heavy sword should be clumsy and has no front. Jun, this trick really misses its true meaning."
Standing aside, Ling Li glanced at Ling Xiao, and then turned to the stage again.
On the stage, Ling Hu also counterattacked fiercely, and his whole body was full of momentum. He roared like a tiger roaring in the forest, which made people's ears tremble, and at the same time, his fists turned into fist shadows all over the sky.
"Tiger Roaring Mountain Forest".
"Ding Ding".
Shadows of knives and fists intertwined, making bursts of noise.
Ling Guang used all his strength in one move, and when he was exhausted, Ling Hu just got excited, shouted "defeat me!", one punch parried Ling Guang's heavy knife, and the other punch hit his lower abdomen go.
"boom".
Ling Guang immediately flew out of the ring like a kite with a broken string.
"Pfft..." Ling Guang fell outside the stage, a mouthful of blood gushing out backwards.
Immediately afterwards, two guards of the Ling family carried Ling Guang down.
Elder Ling Fu on the stage then announced "Ling Hu wins!".
"Wow! Big brother Linghu is really fierce."
"No, one day I will be like Brother Linghu, too powerful."
"Brother Linghu has always been my idol. I not only want to be as strong as him, but also surpass him."
...
The collateral disciples who supported Ling Hu in the audience cheered for Ling Hu one after another.
Next came the other two Ling family disciples. Both of them had the strength of low-level profound practitioners. This competition was evenly matched. Named the winner, but no matter who wins or loses, they will not be able to participate in the next round of competition.
The children of the Ling family watched this competition with excitement, and there was a desire in their eyes to break through and become a mysterious person as soon as possible.
The third competition began, and Elder Ling Fu announced that "Ling Zhi and Ling Xing will come to the stage."
When these two people were called, there was a burst of cheers from the audience. I dare say that these two people are quite popular among the younger generation of the Ling family.
Ling Li next to Ling Xiao said lightly again, "Pay attention to Ling Xing".
Ling Xiao nodded knowingly, then looked towards Ling Xing.
I saw a young man in his twenties who was wearing a blue military uniform similar to Ling Rui. He had a long blue sword tied behind his back, and his wild long hair fell down randomly. He looked a bit out of this world. This is Ling Xing, Ling Rui's eldest brother, a high-ranking profound practitioner, who only lost one move last year, and ranked fourth. He is the best among the eighteen generations of children.
On the viewing platform, the Second Elder Ling Mo said to the Fifth Elder beside him, "Old Fifth, Ling Xing is expected to break through to the Xuanshi rank in half a year!".
Fifth Elder Ling Yan said proudly, "Ling Xing is a little bit better for the little ones, but they are far behind Kuang'er, and Zhi'er is no worse than him. Now he is only fifteen years old and has broken through to low-level profound practitioners." It's not bad compared to Kuang'er's talent!".
Ling Mo showed an imperceptible smile, then changed the subject and said, "After you go back, you have to supervise Ling Xing well, let him break through as soon as possible, Ling Li will definitely become a Xuanshi within three months."
Ling Yan glanced at Ling Mo secretly, then nodded silently.
On the ring stage, Elder Ling Fu announced the start of the competition.
Ling Zhi arched his hands at Ling Xing and said, "Brother Xing, you have to be merciful!".
Ling Xing smiled and said, "I don't need a weapon, you win if you survive ten moves."
Ling Zhi is the grandson of the second elder Ling Mo, and Ling Xing is the grandson of the fifth elder Ling Yan. Both of them are from the same family, and they have a very close and friendly relationship in private.
Ling Zhi shook a first-tier high-level spear in his hand, and shouted, "Then I'll be impolite, look at the gun."
The spear drilled out like a snake, and it reached Ling Xing's throat in an instant, so fast that it was hard to grasp.
Ling Xing was not afraid at all, and made a very calm movement of leaning back. His throat barely avoided Ling Zhi's spear. At the same time, before Ling Zhi's spear could be retracted, Ling Xing kicked and poured 50% of his profound strength , directly kicked Lexus' spear into the air.
The spear was released, but Ling Zhi didn't give up. He flew into the air, grabbed the spear again, and slammed it towards Ling Xing below.
The spear's momentum was like a rainbow, bringing out a gray spear shadow in midair.
"Good time!" Ling Xing's waist was straight, his gaze was like a torch, and he gave a drink of appreciation. The whole person escaped Ling Zhi's full blow like a phantom, and at the same time, he turned his palm into a claw, grabbed Ling Zhi's spear with one hand, and swept towards Ling Zhi's shoulder.
The movement of double turning was very fast, which dazzled the children of the Ling family in the audience.
"Pa" Lexus was kicked, the spear was snatched, and he took two steps back, his expression a little pale.
Ling Xing threw the spear at Ling Zhi, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhi, you lost!".
Ling Zhi caught the spear and nodded, "It's not wrong to lose to Brother Xing."
Ling Zhi is just a low-level profound practitioner, while Ling Xing is a high-level profound practitioner. There is a huge gap in strength between the two. Even if Ling Xing does not use weapons, it is very easy to defeat Ling Zhi.
Elder Ling Fu declared "Ling Xing wins!".
Ling Xing and Ling Zhi stepped off the stage together, and Ling Zhi whispered to Ling Xing, "Brother Xing, that bastard Ling Xiao, please teach him a lesson."
Hearing the word Ling Xiao, Ling Xing's eyes flashed sharply, and then said quietly, "Hmph, so what if you become a profound practitioner, it's just a low-level profound practitioner. I will beat him back to his original form with my own hands."
Ling Xing and his family had a deep resentment towards Ling Xiao's family, and recently they blamed Ling Xiao because his younger brother Ling Rui was almost kicked out of the house. Ling Xing naturally would not let Ling Xiao go easily.
The next competition was a sharp appearance. He faced another Ling family disciple, who only had the strength of a low-level profound practitioner. There was no suspense about the outcome, and he was kicked out of the field with only a sharp move.
The next match was a competition between two middle-level profound practitioners, and in the end Ling Hua, who was ranked sixth last year, won the final victory after one hundred moves.
The final match of the first round of the Xuanzhe rank was between Ling Tian, a middle-ranked Xuanzang, and Ling Hong, a low-ranking Xuanzang. It is worth mentioning that Ling Hong is the granddaughter of the Sixth Elder, seventeen years old, and the only two Xuanzangs. Women above rank.
On the stage, Ling Tian folded his hands on his chest, looked at Ling Hong with disdain and said, "You are not my opponent, I don't want to embarrass you, just admit defeat."
Ling Hong was born to refuse to admit defeat, and when she heard Ling Tian being so contemptuous, she immediately shouted coquettishly, "If you want to win me, you have to knock me down." After saying that, with a shake of his plain hand, he drew out two crystal-clear and shiny curved daggers, which looked extremely dazzling in the sunlight.
"It's actually a low-rank Shuangyue sword of the second rank!" As soon as the sword was released, someone in the audience exclaimed.
"I didn't expect the Sixth Elder to be so fond of Ling Hong. He just became a profound practitioner, and immediately equipped her with this pair of moon swords. He was really willing to spend the capital."
"With the Shuangyue sword in hand, Ling Hong's combat strength has been upgraded by at least one level, and it will not be so easy for Ling Tian to win."
