Chapter 117 Dark Green RingThe third round of fighting could only be described in two words…
Quick battle.
Ming Luotian was a talented swordswoman from the Sun and Moon City, the largest city in the Da Chuan Domain.
But compared with Cao Potian, she was a bit weaker.
When the two of them fought each other, only three stroke moves were displayed, as the sword in Ming Luotian"s hand flew out.
“Haha, Ming Luotian, you don"t have to be discouraged. Your performance just now was already very good, but during the third move, there was a problem with the number of times you used your Mystery Energy. I will teach you. This “As Good as Water” contains a profound meaning…”
Different from the cruelty in his treatment toward Xie Yunrong, Cao Potian this time had unexpectedly taken the initiative to explain with a smile on his face.
No one expected that Ming Luotian would directly interrupt him and say faintly, “Potian, you don"t need to bother, I will practice by myself.”
With that, she returned to her seat with a cold expression.
The bright and beautiful girl bluntly refused. Cao Potian became embarra.s.sed, and a trace of haze flashed in his eyes.
He had thought that with his status, talent, and knowledge, as long as he showed a little bit of goodwill, this bright and beautiful girl would respond positively. Who knew the reality was completely different from his imagination?
Hahaha.
Lin Beichen almost laughed to death on the side.
Cao Potian, you stupid man with an iron sword.
You just beat her with three moves, and even said what was wrong with her in front of so many people. You even wanted to hit on her. Were you stupid?
Haha, you wanted to pick up girls with the stupid way you acted? Maybe in your next life.
Lin Beichen couldn"t help but think of all kinds of secrets to picking up girls that were popular on the Internet in his previous world. He started to become very confident.
He was now very handsome, and had cheats with him. He was familiar with the secrets of picking up girls on the Internet. To put it more vividly, he was simply a walking aphrodisiac.
Even if he did not take the initiative to pick up girls, he could definitely charm a beautiful girl.
“What are you smiling at?”
Looking at Lin Beichen smiling secretly, Bai Qinyun leaned over and asked.
“None of your business.”
Lin Beichen directly said.
Then, a second before Bai Qinyun was about to explode, Lin Beichen got up and went onto the arena.
This time, he still chose the short sword “Zhengyi Sword”.
His opponent was Song Queyi.
“Hehe, Lin Beichen, I didn"t expect you to be an expert at pretending to be weak. Today, your performance of pretending to be drunk and sleeping was impressive.”
Song Queyi said with a smile.
“Make your move.”
Lin Beichen bent his finger.
He did not say many malicious words.
“Then, I"m sorry, Lin Beichen. Please leave.”
Song Queyi held a long sword in his hand. It looked to be pretty heavy.
Being able to make it to this round meant that his talent and strength could definitely be considered outstanding among the more than 20 young men and women.
But…
Whoos.h.!.+
The sound of the surging tides could be heard.
A sword light flashed across the water.
Bang!
Song Queyi"s tall figure heavily fell five meters away, as his b.u.t.t landed on the ground.
“Ouch!”
Song Queyi bared his teeth and grinned in pain. It took him a long time to get up.
“You actually… Not bad, boy. I will remember you.”
He rubbed his b.u.t.t and admitted defeat.
Although he was unclear on how he lost, he was not a fool. He knew that such a situation occurred because of the wide gap between the two of them.
Bai Qinyun once again opened the pink delicate lips of her mouth into an O shape.
“Is it really because I"m too stupid?”
The proud little girl started to doubt her life.
Song Queyi"s performance earlier could be said to be strong, as he had defeated his opponent within three moves. There was no fourth round of attack when he battled.
He was definitely not a push-over.
In the end, in front of Lin Beichen, he was still defeated in one round.
Thinking about it carefully, she found it seemed that Lin Beichen"s previous opponents were all defeated in one move.
This thought was terrifying.
The elders present did not dare to underestimate Lin Beichen at this moment.
Even Bai Haiqin had unknowingly narrowed his eyes slightly.
His miserable Brother Ding"s other skills were just average. His method of selecting apprentices had to be praised.
Earlier it was Cao Potian, and now it was Lin Beichen.
These two youngsters were both talents of the time. Even in Baiyun City, they would be considered talented people.
However, the slight seriousness on Bai Haiqin"s face soon dissipated.
Because although Lin Beichen"s performance was amazing, compared to Cao Potian, he still had a long way to go.
Besides, he had prepared beforehand.
Therefore, the winner tonight had to be his own apprentice.
Among the elders present, the one who was most ecstatic was Chu Hen.
The second-year steering man of the Third College trembled with excitement.
“I just simply have good eyes in judging talent. Hahaha.”
He laughed wildly in his heart.
In the beginning, he was the one who had rejected public opinions and focused on training Lin Beichen.
Now, the reward was so great and beyond his imagination that he was about to laugh his teeth off.
If it hadn"t been for the current occasion, Chu Hen would have danced wildly.
On the other hand, Ding Sans.h.i.+"s expression was much calmer.
He knew best about Lin Beichen"s terrifying talent. He had expected this.
Ling Wu, who was watching from a distance, nodded. “Well, this boy isn"t bad. He is crazy enough and ruthless enough.”
However, it still seemed to be a little short of what he had expected.
He continued watching.
Currently, another round of drawing lots on the field had ended.
Lin Beichen had picked the empty slot.
Cao Potian faced off against the little fat man Ba Dazui.
This battle took a little longer than everyone had expected.
Ba Dazui made the Eating Sword into a masterpiece, as his Mystery Energy cultivation and physical strength surpa.s.sed everyone"s imagination. He displayed the first 16 styles of the 21 styles of “Waters Swordplay” in one go. When he reached the 17th style, because the technique was wrong, he was defeated by Cao Potian"s sword.
Everyone had to be impressed by the fat boy.
To be able to make 17 moves against Cao Potian was simply unbelievable.
Only Cao Potian had coldness glinting in his eyes and murderous intent flickering in his heart.
“This fat man has a lot of talent. If he grows up in the future, he is likely to be a strong rival of mine. I might as well take this opportunity to think of a way to get rid of him…”
He thought to himself.
At this moment, the Old Man of Sea who had green hair like seaweed, walked up onto the arena.
“Everyone, it"s the final battle. The final winner of the second segment is about to be decided.
“As the saying goes, there is no best writer, nor is there a second best fighter. In order to encourage these two young swordsmen, I will temporarily add a reward. Please take a look…”
He took out something slowly.
It was a ring.
It had dragon wings and a tail, and was dark green. It was made from a type of jade material. The surface had a faint light that was partly hidden and partly visible.
The Old Man of Sea slightly injected it with Mystery Energy. The s.h.i.+mmer of the Mystery Marks on the surface of the ring emerged.
There were 107 marks.
It was an alchemy item. The more Mystery Marks there were engraved, the higher the rank was and the more expensive it was.
“This ring was made by me from the fine jade of the North Sea. It is a miniature s.p.a.ce treasure. Although the storage s.p.a.ce is average, it is extremely convenient for storing some personal belongings. As a reward for the finals, it will belong to whoever wins between the two young swordsmen.”
The Old Man of Sea said with a smile.
He finished speaking.
There was a round of cries of surprise in the field.
All the elders were moved.
The young men and women couldn"t take their eyes off the dark green ring.
In particular, Bai Qinyun"s saliva almost flowed out.
Storage treasure.
This was a truly rare item.
“Hahaha. Thank you for giving me this treasure.”
Cao Potian laughed directly.
Though he came from Baiyun City, he did not have anything that could store treasures on him.
When the Old Man of Sea took out such a reward before the finals, wasn"t it obvious that it was to give him a big gift?
Because he was definitely going to win this match.
