Chapter 142 Despair
News of the martial arts competition between Chu Zhiyuan, the fourth prince of Da Jing, and Li Hongzhao, the ninth princess of Da Meng, quickly spread throughout the entire Jade Capital City.
Almost everyone in the restaurants, teahouses, and even the streets of Yujing City was talking about this competition.
People naturally became concerned about the two contestants.
One is the eldest son of Prince Qing, a unique talent in the Dajing royal family. He broke through to the innate realm at the age of twenty. Within a few months, he surpassed the innate realm and stepped into the master realm.
Such a genius is unheard of and unprecedented.
I'm afraid only those legendary characters can be compared, but the records of those characters are often too exaggerated, similar to legends, lose their authenticity, and make people doubtful.
And the fourth prince, this genius, can be seen with his own eyes in Yujing and Prince Qing's Mansion.
This tangible legend made them even more interested.
Not long ago, this man also defeated Cheng Tianfeng, the first son of Dazhen, at a night banquet in the palace. The victory was without any suspense and was hearty.
Prince Yuan was not only a genius in practice, but also a genius in practice.
The other one, Li Hongzhao, the ninth princess of Dameng, is also a legendary figure.
He joined the Phoenix Sword Sect at a young age and became a true disciple of the Phoenix Sword Sect, and he entered the realm of a grandmaster early on.
Before Huang Shirong became a grandmaster in Baiyun Sword Palace, Li Hongzhao was the youngest grandmaster in the world.
Now, the two of them are going to have a competition outside the Qitian Palace.
Although everyone is eager for Chu Zhiyuan to win, Chu Zhiyuan has just stepped into the Grandmaster position, while Li Hongzhao is already a Grandmaster.
The realm absolutely crushes Chu Zhiyuan.
There is a huge difference in strength between each level of the Grandmaster.
They analyzed that Li Hongzhao was at least on the second level, while Chu Zhiyuan should only be on the first level, making it almost difficult to win.
This is a contest that is almost certain to lose.
But since Chu Zhiyuan agreed, there should be no chance at all.
Early this morning, a phoenix chirped, alarming the entire Yujing.
The news that Li Hongzhao had broken through to the third level of the Grand Master quickly swept the entire Jade Capital City.
At this moment, people's hope for Chu Zhiyuan disappeared.
The gap between the two realms makes it almost impossible to win, not even a trace of possibility.
Subsequently, news of another defeat in the northern border of Dajing also spread, and almost everyone knew that Dajing lost an army town.
There is a grassland between Dajing and Dameng. City was built on the grassland, and city walls were built to connect the cities. There were also military towns between the cities.
Build cities at strategic locations and military towns at less critical locations, forming a giant wall to block the Mongolian army.
Da Jing defended the city and restrained the power of the Mongolian cavalry.
But now, when a military town is broken, it is equivalent to a door appearing on this hard wall, and the enemy can enter.
Dameng could enter the city through this military town, making the northern border useless, and then plunder and destroy it wantonly.
This is a major blow to the defense of the entire northern border, and it has a profound impact on the war situation between Dajing and Dameng.
This great defeat was difficult for the people of Yujing to accept, for the court to accept, and for the powerful and wealthy to accept it.
Everyone in Da Jing became more and more eager for Chu Zhiyuan to win.
However, Dameng Li Hongzhao broke through at the critical moment and went one step further, already winning the victory.
I couldn't help but lament, is this destiny?
Is Dameng really invincible?
First, the Dameng Emperor was wise and martial, reorganized the army, and quickly increased the combat power of the Dameng Cloud Riders, and then a figure like Li Hongzhao appeared in the royal family.
Could it be that destiny is in Dameng?
——
"Big sister, big sister!"
Xiao Ruoyu was invited by Renguo Gong's young master Bai Yangqing to have lunch in a restaurant outside. Not long after he sat down, he heard the news.
He didn't even have time to eat and hurried back.
Xiao Ruoling was practicing leisurely, progressing much faster than before, and her true energy became softer and more agile, but the impact on Yulou was stronger.
She felt that she was about to break through this jade tower and step into the eighth level of the innate tower.
This feeling of continuous improvement is particularly rewarding.
Time flies to the fullest, and life becomes interesting.
This feeling changes unconsciously.
She didn't know whether it was because of the change in her mood after meeting Chu Zhiyuan, or because of the change in her true energy after Chu Zhiyuan helped her practice.
Or both.
Hearing the sound, she slowly opened her bright eyes.
His eyes were quiet and peaceful, looking at Xiao Ruoyu who jumped up.
Xiao Ruoyu said hurriedly: "Sister, something bad is going on." "What happened?" Xiao Ruoling shook her head gently: "Look at how panicked you are, how demeanor the young master is!"
"Sister, how can I care about my bearing now!" Xiao Ruoyu said hurriedly: "It's Li Hongzhao. I heard that Li Hongzhao has reached a higher level and entered the third heaven."
Xiao Ruoling frowned slightly.
Xiao Ruoyu said: "The rumors are going crazy outside. That whistle this morning was caused by Li Hongzhao breaking through to the third heaven. She is practicing the Phoenix Sword Sect's supreme skill, the Nine Heavens of Feng Xi, which has been lost for hundreds of years. Jue.”
Xiao Ruoling thoughtfully said: "The third heaven..."
"Isn't the crown prince just one level above the heaven?"
"He just stepped into the Grand Master, he should be at the first level."
"It's already hard to win against the second heaven on the first level, but now against the third heaven, it's really over!"
If you practice martial arts strong enough, you can win across borders, but there are prerequisites.
First, the gap in martial arts must be large enough. A top martial skill with deep fire and a shallow martial skill with low fire can transcend the gap in realm.
Second, the gap between realms cannot be too large. One level is already the limit, and two levels is almost impossible.
Li Hongzhao also practiced top martial arts in the Phoenix Sword Sect.
My brother-in-law's martial arts skills are not much better.
What's more, Li Hongzhao practices the Phoenix Sword Sect's supreme martial art, Feng Xi Jiutian Jue.
No matter what, it is impossible for my brother-in-law to win.
"It's just a martial arts competition." Xiao Ruoling shook her head gently: "There is no need to take the victory or defeat too seriously."
"This is related to our people's morale, morale, and face. How could it not be important?"
"So what if we lose? There's no danger. We can always beat Li Hongzhao in the future."
"The future is the future, and the present is now!" Xiao Ruoyu was unwilling to accept: "It would be great if my brother-in-law could also break through."
"Do you think a grandmaster's breakthrough is like the day after tomorrow?" Xiao Ruoling laughed.
Xiao Ruoyu said: "If others can't do it, my brother-in-law may not be able to do it."
It is said that it is difficult to break through the innate realm, much more difficult than the day after tomorrow, but it was not seen how difficult it was for him to break through. He achieved innate perfection in less than a year in one breath.
It is said that the path to becoming a master is difficult to find. Ninety-nine out of a hundred people will be stuck. Even those who are not stuck will have to practice hard for several years or even decades.
Then he suddenly became a master.
These rules of practice did not apply to him.
"At this point, it's useless to think too much. Just go to Qitian Palace tomorrow to watch the battle."
"...Oh, okay." Xiao Ruoyu saw that she was so calm, but he became more and more anxious.
I don’t even dare to go to Qitian Palace tomorrow.
Xiao Ruoling turned her head and looked in the direction of Prince Qing's Mansion, her blurred eyes sparkling.
The so-called care is chaos.
She said it nicely, how could she not be worried.
Even though I knew it was useless to worry, I still couldn't help but feel confused.
……
Chu Zhiyuan stood in the small courtyard of his new house.
Infinite power surges in the body, and the membrane of the body is like a giant net, trembling gently, shaking the whole body.
As the membrane network vibrates, the flesh and blood of the body are constantly growing.
If you can't break through, then practice martial arts.
While refining the membrane, he experienced the Great Heavenly Dragon Fist.
The Great Heavenly Dragon Fist has a total of nine punches, combining speed, strength and exquisite moves. It can be said to be the pinnacle of boxing and has amazing power.
Even though he has super sense, he cannot understand all the mysteries at once. The more he comprehends, the more he realizes that he knows very little and the mysteries are endless.
Through the subtle changes in his body when performing boxing, he has a far deeper understanding of the essence of boxing than ordinary people.
The deeper the understanding, the more powerful it can be and the more wonderful its effects can be.
A slight difference is a thousand miles away.
The same punch, used at this time and used at that time, has a completely different effect.
The same punch, the slight difference in movement, the speed and strength are very different, and the power is vastly different.
Zou Fang reported softly from outside: "Your Majesty, the princess is here!"
