Chapter 194 I’m Gu Xu, please enlighten me!
"The spell used by Gao Lang is the "Qianjun Secret Technique" - this is a mid-level spell created by Dean Li of Longmen Academy," Qi Yan introduced lightly in Gu Xu's ear, "It Being able to control the gravity and direction of people or objects within a certain range has a great restraint effect on warriors like Miss Shi who rely on absolute strength to fight."
Gu Xu nodded, frowning slightly.
He knew that Luojing, as the capital of a country, had many geniuses and strong men.
Although Shi Xiaohan has been able to occupy the top of the merit list in Yishui County for a long time, in Luojing City, which is full of talents, he is not outstanding enough.
He had long expected that her defense tonight would not be particularly smooth, and he had been mentally prepared for this.
However, when he saw Shi Xiaohan walking down the steps in despair, his mood was not as calm as expected.
The clear singing voice once again rippled over Luoshui.
But the protagonist in the lyrics is no longer Shi Xiaohan, but Gao Lang, who is standing on a high platform with his hands behind his back.
“Many lights cover up the moonlight, opera and drums invade the bright hair. Famous teachers give birth to great disciples, and their grace is crowned Beijing...”
Sing a song.
But the leading singer walked out of the lantern tower and announced to everyone with a smile that the author of this poem was Hanlin editor Xu Liangjie.
Under the influence of the amplification spell, everyone by the river heard her voice.
This shocked everyone watching the battle.
Because the Editor Xu she was talking about was the second best in the latest imperial examination and was also a famous talent in Luo Jing City.
He was born into a scholarly family and was smart and studious since he was a child. He wrote many outstanding works at a young age. Even Emperor Tianxing often called him into the palace and asked him to write poems and articles for sacrifices.
Logically speaking, there is no need for people like Xu Liangjie to become famous in this way.
I didn’t expect him to come here today to support Gao Lang.
"It seems that Dean Li's apprentice is determined to make a splash tonight!" Shangguan Jin smiled and commented.
At this time, Shi Xiaohan finally passed through the dense crowd and came to Gu Xu's side.
She lowered her head and looked at her toes gloomily. Her face no longer had the confident look it once had.
"He's too strong," she reached out and grabbed Gu Xu's sleeve, saying in a weak voice like a mosquito chirping, "I can't beat him."
"Sister Xiaohan, don't be too sad. ," Shangguan Jin next to her immediately bent down, looked at her face, and comforted, "This Gao Lang is not only a fourth-level monk, but his spells can also restrain your sword skills. It's not shameful to lose to him."
"But I can't get the final reward..."
"It's okay," Shangguan Jin stretched out his hand and straightened her clothes, "If you really want that reward If so, sister will go on stage to help you deal with the bastard who bullied you, and then help you win back the reward.”
Shi Xiaohan looked up at her, hesitant.
At this moment, Gu Xu suddenly said calmly: "I'll go."
Shi Xiaohan, Shangguan Jin and Qi Yan all looked at him.
Shi Xiaohan's eyes were a little surprised: "I thought you wouldn't take action in this situation."
Shangguan Jin showed an interesting smile: "It seems that I finally have a chance. I got a glimpse of Daoyou Gu’s style. “
Qi Yan said nothing, but his eyes were full of expectation.
Gu Xu reached out and touched Shi Xiaohan’s head, and combed her slightly messy hair behind her ears: “I really don’t like fighting with people in public, it will make me feel like The actor who was surrounded by people in the hook bar...but who said the reward was too tempting?"
Then he turned around, smiled slightly at the onlookers around him and said: "Please give up. .”
…………
“Who is this person? He is so good-looking.”
"He seems to know Miss Shi just now."
"Miss Shi is from Yishui, and Mr. Gu who saved Qingzhou Mansion is also from Yishui... Could this young master be... The legendary Master Gu?”
“It’s possible. I’ve heard others say that Master Gu is a handsome man who looks like an immortal.”
"Sure enough, the real master always waits until the last minute to appear."
"..."
The cool breeze blew slowly, and the water surface sparkled.
Gu Xu passed through the crowd and climbed up the suspended stairs, his clothes fluttering and his gaze steady.
The noise of the crowd was getting farther and farther away from him, and the golden arena was getting closer and closer to him.
Gao Lang stood on the stage and looked at him, narrowing his eyes slightly.
As a direct disciple of the dean of Longmen Academy, he had already seen Gu Xu’s portrait, so he naturally recognized Gu Xu’s identity effortlessly.
When Gao Lang stepped onto the stage today, the person he wanted to see the most was undoubtedly Gu Xu. But when Gu Xu actually appeared in front of him, he was still amazed by the other person's age and calm demeanor.
"Yishui Gu Xu, please enlighten me!" Gu Xu stood still on the ring and slightly cupped his hands.
"I have long admired my name!" Gao Lang returned the favor with his hand in hand.
Although Gu Xu's cultivation level was one level lower than his, Gao Lang did not dare to neglect him in the slightest in view of the aura around him.
.........
The conversation between the two fell into the ears of the audience on the riverside.
Everyone stood on tiptoes, opened their eyes wide, and looked at the young man in green shirt on the ring.
"It's really Mr. Gu! I didn't expect to see him here today!"
"It's a pity that I came late today and didn't get a good seat, so far away , you can’t see his face at all..."
"..."
Before this, Gu Xu's reputation had already spread throughout the capital.
So the moment he announced his name, there was a sensation under the high platform.
The men's eyes were full of admiration, and the women's eyes were full of appreciation. Some even shouted his name over and over again, and the surging sound waves swept both sides of Luoshui.
…………
The gongs and drums sounded, and the competition began.
Gao Lang recited the mantra again and performed the "Qianjun Secret Technique".
The gravity field around Gu Xu was quickly distorted. He felt as if the ground was shaking, and he became top-heavy, as if he were standing on a small boat in a fast-flowing river, and he would fall to the ground if he wasn't careful.
Gu Xu was not panicked.
The "Qianjun Secret Technique" has a great negative effect on warriors. But for a monk like him who majored in talismans and spells, the impact was not very great.
With a thought in his mind, he took out the "Jinghong Brush" from "Xianyun Residence" and used the technique of "Ten Thousand Sounds of Empty Silence".
Pale ink seemed to gush out from the tip of the pen, and then turned into white snowflakes, covering the entire arena in an instant.
Cold and desolate.
No makeup, no powder, no trees, only floating flowers.
The effect of the "Qianjun Secret Technique" no longer exists.
.........
Shangguan Jin stood by the railing by the river, looking at this scene intently, taking a deep breath, and sighed in his heart: Is this the power of the "famous weapon"? Can you actually erase the spell of a fourth realm monk in an understatement?
At this moment, a familiar voice floated into her ears: "Xiaojin, move over there and make room for me."
Shangguan Jin turned his head, Opening his eyes wide: "Master Chief, why are you here too?"
