Chapter 45 I am convinced of my defeat (Prince, please read~)
Feeling the power coming from behind, You Su looked up at Gu Yao in surprise.
To be honest, You Su doesn’t have a good impression of Gu Yao. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Gu Yao is a dignified, serious and solemn messenger of the sacred mountain, but in the eyes of You Su, he is just a person who uses his power to overwhelm others. Hypocritical person. If it weren't for the purpose of catering to him and obtaining the qualification to attend the school, You Su would not have admitted his mistake against his will that day.
Gu Yao did not pay attention to the young man's gaze and continued:
"Indeed, these two young men are rare and proud of heaven. Even among our Xuanxiao Sect, there are two young men in the same realm. There are only a few people with this level of strength. In this competition, they all showed their own style, and compared to myself, I can’t even call them a draw.”
"Whether they win or lose, it is a gift, the trophy they deserve today. The process is important, but it cannot confuse the result. Losing is defeat, winning is winning, and judging the winner to lose is to work hard for the winner. They have a long way to go, even longer than us, and will experience countless successes and failures. Instead of letting them win like the elders now. If you look down on defeat, it is better to let these vigorous young men remember the truth of not being arrogant in victory but not discouraged in defeat."
"So, Wu Su Sheng!"
The excitement of the crowd before. Gu Yao calmed down a bit when he said that outsiders were indeed not qualified to determine the outcome of the two fighting in the field. This was disrespectful to both of them.
City Lord Liu and Qi Daodong looked a little more solemn, but they still had superficial smiles on their faces.
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted with a sharp voice: "Master Gu Xian, didn't you say you shouldn't stick to winning or losing? Why are you saying it now as if winning or losing is important? Besides..."< br>
"Besides, I don't think my brother lost! That Yousu station can't stand firm anymore. My brother gave up because he was afraid of hurting him!" The person who spoke was short in stature, with sinister eyebrows and an angry look. He was clearly Wu Ping.
"Ping'er!" Wu Xueting, the head of the Wu family, stopped Wu Ping's speech in a cold voice. Even Qi Daodong suppressed his smile and frowned at the young man who spoke up for his brother.
Qi Daodong and the others knew that this was not a war of words over the outcome. So what if there were ten thousand loopholes in Gu Yao's words? It doesn't matter who speaks more truthfully. What matters is Gu Yao's attitude towards this matter. His rebuttal showed that he was going to sentence You Su Ying today, even if some people in the crowd did not agree with his point of view.
Then what’s the point of continuing to argue? On the contrary, it seems that their purpose is impure.
Gu Yao was not angry. He glanced at Wu Ping indifferently, and Wu Ping shrank in fright. He was about to explain a few more words, but the person next to him beat him to it.
"Wu Ping, don't be rude! When does Gu Xianshi's so-called not sticking to victory or defeat mean that victory or defeat is not important? What's more, You Su's unsteadiness was because he wanted to contain me after I surrendered. That sword didn't hurt me, but I was forced to withdraw Qi and suffered internal injuries. I, Wu Cheng, am convinced that I lost this battle!"
Wu Cheng's voice became louder as he spoke, and he was no longer facing the enemy. What Wu Ping said was to admit his defeat today in front of everyone present.
The feeling in You Su's heart was hard to understand, and Wu Cheng's reaction was even more unexpected than Gu Yao's.
Gu Yao's words can be said to be his compensation for forcing himself to admit his mistakes before, but Wu Cheng has no reason to speak for himself. He only needs to remain silent and say nothing, and he will not lose anything.
When he said this, he not only violated the wishes of the elders behind him, but also generously admitted that he, Yousu, was the well-deserved winner today. This was a fact that no one could change.
"Okay! As expected, Senior Brother Gu has foresight. If Wu Cheng understands the principle of not giving up after defeat, he will be able to work harder and strive for success. You Su cannot be arrogant and slack off, and continue to persevere. If you two can understand Master Gu Xian's principles, the future will be a bright one. Guangming will definitely make the name of Izumo City known!"
City Lord Liu didn't want to continue the struggle between victory and defeat, so he summed it up directly.
After that, Gu Yao took turns with him and said some clichés, encouraging the monks in the city to be determined to seek the Tao, and affirming the efforts of all the contestants, etc. The five-day Immortal Ascension Conference finally ended with Yousu's victory came to an end. Gu Yao also made a decision to hold a banquet at the city lord's mansion tomorrow, the last night he will stay in Izumo City, to entertain all the sect leaders in the city and every contestant. He will give rewards to the monks who have performed well. , and announced the final ownership of the academic quotas for the affiliated sects and Xuanxiao Sect.
The crowd finally dispersed, and the noisy City Lord's Mansion now seemed empty.
With the help of Gu Yao's Xuanqi Warming and the Spirit Creation Pill, You Su was basically able to walk freely, and he did not leave quietly among the crowd.
Gu Yao looked at You Su's back and shook his head secretly, sighing that he was such a strong young man. Only such a person could understand at this age that those old antiques who have been practicing swordsmanship for hundreds of years can also touch it. It's the sword intention that doesn't touch. The last disciple of Lord Lianjian was already the leader of the geniuses, and the next one might not give in too much.
On the way back, Yousu was surrounded by more people than when he came. The restaurant where he ate most often even asked You Su not to take any money from his future meals. The proprietress of Zhaiyun Clothes Shop also wanted to hold You Su in her arms and pamper him, and gave him a lot of new clothes.
You Su thanked them one by one, prescribed some medicine at the pharmacy, and left avoiding the crowd. When he reached this inaccessible Xiliu Road, he was alone again, which made him feel very comfortable.
The sudden appearance of a stumbling block on the road ahead made him think again, and the memories of so many times of siege from childhood to adulthood emerged again.
It's Wu Cheng.
“Still want to fight?” You Su frowned slightly and put his hand on the hilt of the sword. His legs and feet were inconvenient and he could no longer escape like before. At this time, he could only fight.
“I won’t fight, didn’t I say, I am convinced that I lost.” Wu Cheng slowly walked towards You Su with a smile on his face. He didn't even change his bloody clothes, so he had obviously been waiting here for a long time.
You Su did not relax his vigilance, and his hand still did not leave the hilt of the sword.
"Don't be so nervous. I just came to talk to you. I don't like to talk before a fight, so why can't I talk after the fight?" Wu Cheng stopped two meters away from You Su. This distance would not make people feel dangerous. , but it doesn’t seem too far away.
"If there's nothing wrong, get out of the way. I'm in a hurry to go home." You Su obviously didn't have a good tone towards Wu Cheng.
Wu Cheng seemed to have expected it. He turned aside to get out of the way, looked at the lush leaves and said leisurely:
"My master is not as stingy as you think. It was true that he asked me to compete with you in the beginning, but in the end, I made my own decisions about you. Even if you beat me, he wouldn't really take action against you."
"Yes." Yousu didn't stop and walked away.
"So if you had already agreed to fight me, it would be over. I know you are so powerful and I won't pester you anymore."
"That's not the reason why you have to pester me."
"It's true, I was the one who got into trouble before, and I won't do it again in the future." Wu Cheng looked relaxed, feeling relieved that he had got what he wanted. Feeling this, he turned to look at You Su's leaving figure and said solemnly: "You Su, the next time we meet, we will be at the Holy Mountain. I will win you."
You Su walked forward silently and disappeared in At the end of the alley, a cold voice came from afar:
“Next time, I won’t stop.”
Thank you for your recommendation and monthly pass, but reading and collecting is very important to me now. It's also very important.
