Chapter 83 All parties gathered together for a grand martial arts performance
A few days after the three surnames from Chu State arrived, people from Lu State also arrived.
The flying boat of the royal family of the Lu Kingdom came from the north. The huge flying boat of a thousand feet covered the sky and blocked the sun. Eight flying boats of more than a hundred feet were surrounding the huge flying boat, just like the swimming sharks guarding the whale king.
Its popularity can be said to be even worse than that of Chu State.
After the arrival of Chu and Lu, the atmosphere in Zhengdu became a little weird.
The three families seem to be harmonious, but there are always some conflicts overt or covert.
Jiang Sheng heard that at an auction in the Treasure Shop, monks from Chu and Lu had raised a fourth-level spiritual material to a high price of hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones.
This shows that the two families are not as harmonious as they appear on the surface.
As for the dignitaries of Zheng State, they were quite graceful at this time, constantly giving in, and just sitting back and watching the fight between Chu State and Lu State.
The Chu and Lu states were not stupid either. On the fighting stage, the Chu and Lu states often joined forces to beat Zheng monks with bruises on their noses and faces.
There are different opinions on the reasons for the fight, but Jiang Sheng didn't care about it. He only felt that it was noisy.
In the other courtyard, Ao Ke played with the tea cup in his hand: "These past few days, there has been a lot of fun at the Fighting Stage and the Treasure Shop. What do you think, Brother Jiang?"
Jiang Sheng He took a sip of spiritual tea and said slowly: "It is inevitable that there will be disputes between neighbors. There is nothing to see."
Ao Ke nodded: "Speaking of which, the gold medals of Lu and Chu Danzhen people seem to have been in the imperial city these days, and the ones who show up are all the younger generation."
"Brother Jiang, do you want to go see these talented people?"
Jiang Sheng said calmly: "Coming to Zhengdu coincides with such a grand event, so I want to meet this outstanding genius on the coast of the East China Sea."
Hearing Jiang Sheng's words, Ao Ke's eyes lit up: "Brother Jiang, do you mean to show your face at this grand event?"
Jiang Sheng nodded: "People who practice must be competitive."
"I am a poor man. Although they don’t like to fight, Chu, Lu, and Zheng are meeting each other, and the Dragon Palace is by their side. It doesn’t matter if Pindao is not there, but since he is in the capital of Zheng, he will not miss it.”
"Although he is only a mere Zifu and has never been listed as a true successor. But when you go out, you can't lose the face of Daozong."
Ao Ke was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this case, I'll wait and see."
The beginning of spring in the thirty-nine thousand eight hundred and thirty-sixth year of the Shanhe calendar.
When a dragon chariot from the East China Sea Dragon Palace arrived, the grand martial arts performance in Zhengdu finally began.
For this grand event, Zheng Du started making arrangements early.
The seventy-two martial arts arenas in the outer city, the thirty-six fighting platforms in the inner city, and the twelve square rooftops in the imperial city were all built at a large cost by the Zheng royal family.
They deal with three levels of fighting: Qi training, foundation building, and purple mansion respectively.
At the same time, just in case, to prevent the fate of Jindan Zhenren, there are several square rooftops above the imperial city for Jindan Zhenren to fight.
For this grand event, the royal family of Zheng State spent a huge amount of money to set up screen walls in the imperial city, inner city, and outer city to satisfy the viewing of thousands of creatures throughout Zhengdu.
At the same time, a large number of sergeants were dispatched to maintain order.
Hundreds of foundation builders were placed in the outer city as guards and referees, while in the inner city, monks from the Zifu served as referees.
As for the imperial city, each Jindan master of the Zheng family is personally in charge.
The lineup is not luxurious, and the Zheng family has also prepared a large amount of elixirs for the monks to restore their Qi.
At the same time, the Spirit Gathering Formation, Rejuvenation Formation and other formations are installed in every place where martial arts are performed. It can be said that all aspects have been taken into consideration.
The rules of this martial arts event are also extremely simple. Regardless of status or nationality, whether it is a Qi training monk or a foundation-building monk, as long as you can survive ten rounds of competitions, you can obtain the official status of Zheng Guo, and you will be prosperous and wealthy in the future. No worries.
Therefore, not only the monks from the Zheng Kingdom were excited, but also many casual cultivators and children from small families in the Chu and Lu Kingdoms were very jealous of this.
As Emperor Zheng and Jin Dan Zheng Tu personally announced the start of the martial arts event, geniuses from all over the place came on stage to compete in martial arts arenas and fighting stages in the inner and outer cities.
In the imperial city, Zheng Tu and the top dignitaries of the Zheng Kingdom accompanied the distinguished guests from the Lu Kingdom, the Chu Kingdom, and the Dragon Palace, enjoying delicious food and wine while watching the monks fight.
The real people are standing tall, chatting and laughing, and commenting from time to time, as if they are watching a big show.
As for the Nascent Soul Masters from the four families, they don’t have much interest in these Qi training and foundation-building fighting techniques.
These Nascent Soul Masters are the masters of this event. They occasionally taste fine wines and glance at the projected fighting skills. Most of the time, they are constantly transmitting their spiritual consciousness.
Obviously this secret transmission is the reason why all parties gathered here.
Nowadays, people gathered around the various fighting stages and martial arts arenas in the inner city and the outer city. Whether they were ordinary people or monks, they were all excitedly watching the fighting.
Every time someone is knocked off the stage, there will be a burst of applause.
In such a heated environment, those who fight will inevitably be affected, and their actions will lose their sense of proportion without realizing it.
Therefore, there were many people who were seriously injured, but because there were monks from the Zheng court watching, no one died yet.
Compared with the various spells and flying sword weapons of the foundation-building monks in the inner city, the fighting methods of the qi-training monks in the outer city are simpler.
At this time, on a martial arts stage in the outer city, Li Tai was competing with monks from other places.
Since Li Tai and Li Qingyun followed Jiang Sheng and arrived in Zhengdu safely, they found the cheapest place to stay.
In addition to meditating every day, I also go out to watch martial arts fights and learn from other people’s experiences.
I have never attended any singing and dancing receptions. As for the auction, I am even more strapped for money.
After struggling so hard until now, the two of them finally waited for the martial arts event to begin.
At this time, under the martial arts stage, Li Qingyun clenched his sleeves anxiously. Li Tai held a long sword and kept blocking the opponent's attacks.
The opponent is a monk holding a broadsword. Judging from his tricks, he seems to be from the military.
Every one of his moves is open and closed, fierce and domineering, with an iron-blooded killing power.
Now that Li Tai and the monk had gone through dozens of rounds, and seeing that the monk became more and more fierce as he fought, Li Qingyun could not help but worry about Li Tai's safety.
As the sword fell one after another, the monk's power increased higher and higher, like a wave.
As the momentum reached its peak, the monk let out a loud shout and flew into the air.
"Drink!"
Angrily shouted to calm the soul, the sharp sword slashed at Li Tai, the strong wind roared, like an iron horse, it was terrifying.
Li Tai responded calmly. He had long been waiting for his opponent to reveal his flaws.
Seeing the sword strike down on his head, Li Tai turned around and flew up, spinning like a hawk to dodge the powerful and heavy blow.
Immediately, while the opponent's old strength has been released and the new strength has not yet risen, he slaps three palms on his back. The palm force is soft and cold, using softness to overcome hardness.
The monk was caught off guard and was slapped three times in the back by Li Tai. The cold spiritual power invaded his body, causing his luck to go awry.
Immediately afterwards, Li Tai took the opportunity to place the sword across his neck: "Brother, you lost."
This monk was not someone he couldn't afford to lose. He sighed, turned around and clasped his fists: "Good skill, I lost."
After the monk stepped down, Li Tai only rested for a quarter of an hour before welcoming him again. Newcomer challenge.
The new opponent is good at using poison needles and darts, and he also practices poison attacks, and his moves are vicious and vicious.
It looks like he is fighting the enemy with fists and kicks, but in fact, there are tiny poisonous needles between his punches and kicks.
This set of poisonous needles was obviously a magic weapon. Li Tai dealt with it carefully and finally found his flaw and defeated him.
At this time, Li Tai had already won five battles and five victories, and his performance was extremely impressive.
Not to mention the outer city, even in the inner city, many people noticed Li Tai's performance.
Some of them were optimistic about Li Tai and placed their bets.
The Zhengguo court did not prohibit gambling, but it would not tolerate collusion between gambling houses and the forces behind it to ruin the martial arts event.
Therefore, gambling is okay, but if you want to take advantage of the odds, the Zheng court will take action decisively.
Jiang Sheng sat in the tea shop and looked at the picture projected on the screen wall outside.
"Li Tai, you have some ability, your skills are not bad."
Ao Ke on the side listened and was a little curious: "Brother Jiang knows him?"
Jiang Sheng explained: "When Pindao went all the way north, he and his junior sister led the way. He seemed lazy, but he was decisive when he started."
"His character is not bad, he is kind and kind. But he doesn’t do anything casually, he is a good seedling.”
Ao Ke nodded after hearing this, and then said: "Then I will give this boy a sum of spiritual stones."
Looking at Ao Ke really taking out a sum of spiritual stones for the waiter to take as a deposit Note, Jiang Sheng shook his head: "Brother Ao doesn't go to your father's side, so what's the point of following Pindao?"
Ao Ke said: "How can I follow Brother Jiang when I'm with my father? Are you comfortable? Otherwise, why would I come to Zhengdu so early?"
Jiang Sheng said nothing and continued to watch the fight on the projection.
"Since Brother Jiang is optimistic about this kid, why don't you give him a shot?" Ao Ke was a little curious when he saw that Jiang Sheng had been silent for a long time.
Jiang Sheng was quite casual at this time and said with a smile: "Although Pindao has some spare money, he is not easy to gamble. And Pindao is optimistic about him, so he does not necessarily want to bet on him to win."
"Unless it is. It’s a game that must be won, otherwise Pindao will never lose.”
“Brother Jiang’s temperament is too calm, boring,” Ao Ke shook his head. Obviously he was dissatisfied with Jiang Sheng's stability.
The two were talking when suddenly someone on the side said: "Come on, that boy, I'll give you a small fortune too."
Hearing this voice, Jiang Sheng looked around suddenly, but saw a The man with a long beard and purple brocade robe was taking out a pile of spiritual stones to place bets.
When Jiang Sheng saw the man, the man happened to look towards Jiang Sheng.
The man smiled and nodded towards Jiang Sheng.
Jiang Sheng was stunned for a moment. He sat back down when he was about to get up, and waved to the waiter beside him.
The waiter came over diligently: "Sir, what are your orders?"
"That martial artist, Li Tai, weighs a thousand spiritual stones." Jiang Sheng said.
The waiter took the spirit stone away with a smile on his face, but Ao Ke on the side was confused.
He looked at Jiang Sheng in disbelief. After looking around, he couldn't help but asked: "Brother Jiang, didn't you say you don't like gambling?"
"Indeed. So, why doesn’t Pindao gamble in a game that is bound to win? "
Jiang Sheng said, drinking all the tea in the cup with a smile.
