Chapter 210: Battle Between Junior Grandmasters

The waiter who was wiping the table saw Zhao Jue, who was dressed simply, come in, and stopped and asked as if it was a routine matter.

"Sir, do you want to pawn or redeem your things?"

"Pawn." Zhao Jue didn't waste any words, holding the things in his arms and staring at him vigilantly.

The waiter was already used to this look, and many people thought that they would take advantage of the time to look at things and exchange fake things for real things.

So almost every time the waiter met someone with this vigilant look, he would explain.

"Sir, don't worry, we are the largest pawnshop in Bianzhou, and we won't exchange fake things for real things."

"Well, look at things."

Hearing the indifferent tone, the waiter was stunned for a moment. But he quickly reacted, put away the rag and raised his hand and said, "Put it on the table."

"Okay."

As he said, Zhao Jue put the box on the table and opened it carefully. The waiter took a look at it by the light of the fire. Because it was dark and the candle was flickering, to be honest, he couldn't see it clearly.

In order to avoid making mistakes and being punished, he had to ask carefully, "Sir, can I pick it up and have a look? The candle is shaking, it's really hard to see clearly, and it's hard to estimate the value..."

"Take a look, don't turn it down, be careful!"

After getting permission, the waiter thanked him and carefully picked up the things in the box. The touch of his fingers was still him, this is a piece of jade, but it turned out to be a book, but the cover was inlaid with a few pieces of white jade.

Looking closely, the jade is smooth and delicate, and it feels like skin, not an ordinary product. After reading the jade, he couldn't help but be curious, and quietly turned the cover while Zhao turned his head. There were only four words on the first page, and he could only understand two of them, which seemed to be "Tianbao".

But just as he was about to turn it down, he was snatched away by the angry Zhao, who put it into the box and closed it.

He said angrily, "I asked you to look at the jade, why are you flipping through my book? You're bullying customers because you're a big store, right? I won't do it anymore!"

He put away the box and walked out. The clerk looked regretful. He lost a business in vain. When the shopkeeper came back, he would be scolded again.

I wanted to slap myself in the face. What was he curious about? He really asked for trouble!

"Sir..." He wanted to keep him, but Zhao had already walked out of the pawnshop.

The furious look made people on the street look sideways and look at the pawnshop with interest, which made the clerk complain again.

Until Zhao, holding the box, disappeared in the alley, the crowd stopped watching the excitement. Just as he was about to leave, he saw a black shadow floating in the sky.

"What is that?" Someone with sharp eyes immediately pointed to the sky and asked in confusion.

"What else? A martial arts master!"

"Have you ever seen a martial arts master who can't stand on the ground?"

The man drinking by the window of the restaurant said disdainfully, "Grandmaster, what's the big deal..."

Soon he realized something was wrong, and faced the eyes of the restaurant and the street, his mouth dry, and he trembled as he said "Grandmaster!"

In the end, all his words turned into one sentence "Fuck!"

When he was about to explain to the people who didn't know what a grandmaster was, a loud shout suddenly came from not far away.

"Stay! Boy, you can't enjoy this kind of treasure alone!"

Then came an arrogant voice, "Hahaha, funny! I found something by myself, should I share it with you if I don't enjoy it alone?"

"You chased me all the way, you're going too far! You are a junior grandmaster, and so am I. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead, but before he could wipe it off, another voice came soon.

"Arrogant, then I'll have to kill you!"

"Come on!"

Then came the continuous "boom" sound, and the true energy continued to overflow. Everyone in the restaurant could feel the pressure of a stone on their chest, which was hard to explain, but very real.

When the feeling disappeared, everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw the smoke and dust. The man who had been disdainful before had collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, the people who were traveling with him helped him up.

"Friend, is this a young master? Why do I feel like something is pressing on my chest, and it's hard to breathe." Someone asked in confusion.

The man wiped his sweat and shook his head to explain, "That's the pressure of the true meaning of martial arts and true qi. Fortunately, the two young masters didn't continue to fight here, otherwise we would all die!"

"Don't be funny, this place is still far away from them!"

"Are you kidding? Haha, the power of the master can be heard a hundred miles away! If you don't practice martial arts, you don't understand. Go over and see if I'm lying to you!"

The man was too lazy to explain, but just drank to calm his nerves.

Of course, people didn't believe him, and went downstairs together to rush to the place where the fight took place. Seeing the scene, people were so shocked that they couldn't speak.

The two houses turned into broken walls and two deep pits on the ground. Several neighboring houses had countless deep marks outside the courtyard walls, as if countless swords had slashed through them.

Miserable, ferocious, terrifying, and real.

Everyone looked at each other and retreated unconsciously. The scene before them made them believe the man's words without a doubt. Such power was indeed beyond human power!

......

The news of the fight between the young masters in Bianzhou City soon spread throughout the whole of Jiangnan.

Not only did the people in the martial arts world talk about it, but even the street vendors and hawkers could say a few words.

It even became more and more mysterious and weird.

Some people said that the two of them used the thunder from the sky to turn half of Bianzhou into ashes.

Some people said that one of them controlled fire and the other controlled water, and they attacked each other and fought until the sky was dark.

But what the people in the martial arts world were most concerned about was why the two young masters fought each other?

In order to figure out this problem, countless people from the underworld have flocked to Bianzhou in the past few days, trying to find out the reason. Unexpectedly, they found nothing after searching for a long time. The only news was:

One of the young masters had been to the pawnshop.

So the pawnshop became the target of the underworld again, but except for the word "Tianbao" from the clerk, other pawnshops were also unsuccessful.

Many people from the underworld were disappointed and left one after another. Others kept walking around Bianzhou, intending to continue the investigation.

After sunset that day, a carriage stopped at the door of the pawnshop, and a young man in white walked into the pawnshop. Before the clerk could speak, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Are you sure you saw the word Tianbao that day?"

The clerk patiently said in detail, "Sir, I saw four words that day, but I am not well-educated and only know the two middle words, which are Tianbao!"

"Four words?" The young man in white patted his fan, a little confused.

He then asked tentatively, "Is it a piece of paper?"

"That's not it." The waiter sat down and explained in detail what happened that day.

When he heard about a book, the young man in white could no longer suppress his excitement and asked, "Are you sure it's a book?"

"Of course I am sure, I only opened the first page, and when I wanted to open the second page, the master took it back!"

"What did he pawn it? The book?" the young man in white asked.

The waiter smiled, "Of course not, how much is a book worth? What he pawned is the white jade inlaid on the cover!"

The white jade young man touched his chin thoughtfully and put down five taels of silver, "Thank you for letting me know."

He got up and walked out, and only when he got on the carriage did he show a happy look on his face.

He couldn't help muttering to himself, "God will not let down those who work hard, and finally there is some news."

"No wonder there was no news after searching for so long. It turned out to be in the hands of a small master. No wonder..."

Then he lifted the curtain and patted the driver's shoulder.

"Take me to the ferry."
