Guarding the border: I am sanctified in the flesh

Chapter 91

At this time, Lu Fan was also standing on the competition stage, thinking that the highest reward would indeed be the human-level skills.

It seems that Ye Wuchen's news is very well-informed.

With the improvement of strength, Lu Fan is now very aware of the value of human-level exercises.

Especially for him.

Possessing the human-level exercises means that he can break through the first rank and be promoted to a higher realm.

It will greatly increase his upper limit.

Therefore, for the human-level exercises, he is bound to win!

Of course, he didn't want to give up other rewards either.

Now that you have participated, try to get the first place and get all the nine-level exercises.

Lu Fan had this idea from beginning to end.

"Okay, not much to say."

Li Chengan announced loudly: "All competitions have officially begun!"

"it is good!"

There were cheers and applause from the stands again.

The long-awaited contest has finally begun.

A total of more than 400 Dragon Shadow Guards participated in this competition, and all of them were the best of the best.

Among them, the Dragon Shadow Guards from the Royal Forest Army accounted for more than half, and their momentum was huge.

Lu Fan was placed on the edge of the martial arts arena. He had several martial arts competitions today, and the first one was boxing competition.

He was the first to appear.

Due to his many matches, Li Yongtai specially helped him coordinate, so that his various competitions were staggered and tried not to be held at the same time.

"The first group of contestants are invited, Lu Fan and Liu Fulin."

With a loud shout, the Dragon Shadow Guards all walked off the competition stage and stood under the stage to watch the competition.

The two contestants remained on the stage, standing face to face, sizing each other up.

Lu Fan has never seen this person before, the other party should be a member of the Royal Forest Army.

"I heard of you."

Liu Fulin took the initiative and said, "I didn't expect you to dare to accept Gu Chen's challenge. You didn't embarrass our Dragon Shadow Guards. You are very good!"

"Thank you."

Lu Fan didn't want to waste time, and signaled to his opponent, "Let's get started."

"it is good."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Fulin took the initiative to punch Lu Fan's face.

Lu Fan didn't dodge, and punched Liu Fulin's fist.

Lightning fast.

In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Liu Fulin.

Liu Fulin didn't dare to fight recklessly, and suddenly changed his move, making a backhand, trying to grab Lu Fan's wrist.

However, it was empty.

The next moment, he had already flown out.

He fell heavily on the competition platform.

Horrified in his heart, he felt his own body.

Fortunately, no injuries.

It's just that the meridians are temporarily blocked and cannot move.

So strong!

No wonder he dared to accept Gu Chen's challenge.

It seems that he not only has courage, but also has sufficient strength.

Liu Fulin couldn't hide the surprise in his heart. You know he is a fifth-rank cultivation base, but he couldn't even catch the opponent's move.

Moreover, it was obvious that the opponent was merciful and didn't use all his strength at all.

At least you have to be a fourth-rank cultivation base, right?
Maybe it's still the third product?
There are such masters in the Zhennan Army?
Liu Fulin was thinking, when the referee's voice came from his ear, "Lu Fansheng!"

There were a few applause and cheers from the stands.

This was the first contest to end, but the losers were those from the Royal Forest Army.

The officers and soldiers of the Royal Forest Army in the stands were naturally upset.

Lu Fan stepped off the competition stage.

"Congratulations, Lu Fan."

"Good job!"

"too strong!"

A few familiar contestants in the audience gave Lu Fan a thumbs up and praised him a few words.

But there were also some people who looked at Lu Fan with hostility.

Almost all of them are members of the Imperial Forest Army.

Lu Fan's performance just now made them feel threatened.

"Thank you!"

After a few words of politeness, Lu Fan walked to another competition stage.

What will be held in a while will be a hidden weapon competition.

When he came to the competition arena, he saw that the surroundings of the competition arena were surrounded, leaving only a gap, and he could see the situation inside.

On the stage, the two contestants were both wearing protective gear and competing with hidden weapons.

The hidden weapons used in the game are chess pieces.

As long as you hit the opponent with a chess piece, you can win.

The premise is to hit the protective gear.

If the hit is not on the protective gear, but hits other parts outside the protective gear, it will be invalid.

The competition of archery is similar.

Surround the surroundings of the martial arts stage, leaving only a gap, and the two shoot at the same time, whoever hits the opponent's protective gear first will win.

It's just that the arrowheads of the arrows are removed during the martial arts competition, leaving only the arrow shafts.

This is naturally for the safety of the players.

The body technique competition is even simpler. A flagpole is erected on the competition platform, about 100 meters high, and a flag is placed on the top of the flagpole.

Two people participating in the competition climb the flagpole at the same time, and whoever gets the flag first wins.

Moreover, it is stipulated that the two are not allowed to fight each other, and only compete in body skills.

"Lu Fansheng!"

Such shouts resounded in every competition platform.

At the end of the day, Lu Fan participated in all seven competitions and advanced easily.

evening.

After a day of martial arts competition, Lu Fan returned to the post house.

He was almost the last to arrive.

The other players finished the game early and went back to the post house to rest early.

"Lu Fan, are you back?"

"You are really good, you actually participated in seven competitions."

"And every item is more than enough."

"so amazing."

Seeing Lu Fan's return, many people greeted him and did not forget to praise him.

In just one day, Lu Fan's strength has already won respect.

Come to the dining room.

Except for Lu Fan, the nine members of the Longyingwei of the Zhennan Army were there, and the food was already on the table, but no one touched their chopsticks.

They are all waiting for Lu Fan.

Recently, they all ate at the same table.

Feelings grow stronger.

"Lu Fan, congratulations."

"All advanced, really good!"

"It will depend on you to win glory for us in the future."

With smiles on their faces, everyone congratulated Lu Fan from the bottom of their hearts.

Even Qin Yu was no exception.

"Thank you."

Lu Fan sat down next to Ye Wuchen, and greeted everyone with a smile, "Hurry up and eat."

"it is good."

Only then did everyone move their chopsticks.

"How are you?"

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Lu Fan asked everyone, "Have you advanced yet?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and the smiles on their faces disappeared.

"Ugh!"

Cao Ning sighed, and said, "Except for Ye Wuchen and Qin Yu, plus you, everyone else lost."

"Oh."

Lu Fan had thought about the result, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

It was only the first day of the competition, and more than half of the Dragon Shadow Guards of the Zhennan Army had been eliminated.

Compared with the Yulin Army, the strength gap is a bit big.

"it does not matter."

Cao Ning comforted himself: "We have thought of this kind of result in advance, and we can accept it."

"Yeah, nothing to be sad about."

"When you see the gap, you will be motivated to make progress."

"It is already very rare to be able to participate in the big competition and gain insights."

Several other people also adjusted their emotions, and quickly put those unhappiness to the torch, and at the same time cheered for the three who advanced.

"Lu Fan, Ye Wuchen, Qin Yu, it's up to you."

"Be sure to cheer!"

"Save face for us!"

"Strive to get the first name back!"

……

……

days thereafter.

The big contest goes on as normal.

Lu Fan has won consecutive battles, making great strides in all competitions, and all advanced to the quarterfinals.

Ye Wuchen also easily advanced to the quarterfinals.

He only participated in one competition, sword technique.

Qin Yu participated in the competition of hand skills, but regrettably stopped in the top sixteen.

So far, only Lu Fan and Ye Wuchen are left in the Longying Guard of the Zhennan Army.

The other frontier soldiers were not much better, some had two people left, and some had three people left.

The Dragon Shadow Guards of the Yulin Army still accounted for more than half, and as many as 34 players advanced to the quarterfinals.

Visible gap.

Similar to the legend, even if all the frontier troops combined, they are not as strong as the Royal Forest Army.

This day is May NO.12.

morning.

Seven contests were held simultaneously.

Eight into four.

Lu Fan was still the first one to compete in boxing.

His opponent is Wang Yue.

On the competition stage, the two stood facing each other.

"Lu Fan, please be merciful."

Wang Yue looked quite relaxed, and he was still joking.

"you are too polite."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "I know you are very strong."

"It's really not polite."

Wang Yue shook his head lightly, "In the past few days, I have been observing you and found that you are even stronger. I am really not sure that I can beat you."

"You'll only know after you've called."

Lu Fan stretched out his hand to signal, "Please."

"it is good."

Wang Yue stopped talking and punched Lu Fan.

Lu Fan punched almost at the same time, but he hit Wang Yue's lower abdomen first.

Wang Yuezao was prepared. He dodged and easily dodged. The fist in his hand didn't stop and hit Lu Fan's shoulder.

Lu Fan twisted his body to avoid Wang Yue's fist, and at the same time he punched the opponent's face.

The two came and went, fighting extremely fiercely.

Looks evenly divided.

This is what Lu Fan did on purpose.

He wants to use Wang Yue's hand to hone his boxing skills.

After all, opponents are rare.

According to his estimate, Wang Yue is almost at the peak of the fourth rank. If he hadn't met him, it should be possible to enter the top three.

"it is good!"

"Come on, Lu Fan!"

There were cheers and cheers from the stands.

The consecutive days of martial arts competitions won Lu Fan many supporters.

Especially when I heard that he accepted Gu Chen's challenge, plus he participated in all the competitions and showed his super strength in the competitions.

made him very loud.

Apart from Yan Qing, Zhu Jingtian, Mu Yan, and a few others, Lu Fan had the most supporters.

It even surpassed many Royal Forest Army Dragon Shadow Guard players.

Lu Fan and Wang Yue fought fast, and in the blink of an eye they exchanged hundreds of moves.

But they didn't show any signs of failure.

Even the two of them have never fought recklessly, only relying on the subtlety of boxing to seize the initiative.

There is offense and defense with each other.

After two hundred strokes.

Lu Fan felt that the time was almost up, so he suddenly changed his fist posture and swung lightly.

Ok?
Feeling the unusualness of this punch, Wang Yue's expression became serious.

However, he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't dare to take it hard. Instead, he dodged, trying to avoid the punch.

But as soon as he moved his body, he felt something was wrong.

Lu Fan's fist seemed to lock him, no matter where he hid, he couldn't dodge.

Like a shadow.

What kind of boxing is this?
The more frightened Wang was, he could only hastily throw his fists to greet him.

The next moment, he made a fuss.

Lu Fan's fist seemed to appear out of thin air, imprinted on Wang Yue's chest.

"Oh!"

Wang Yue flew out.

"Lu Fansheng!"

Following the referee's announcement, Lu Fan stepped off the competition stage and went to the next competition venue.

"it is good!"

Cheers erupted from the stands.

Lu Fan was full of confidence at this time.

Through the tempering just now, he has become more confident in his boxing skills, and he can defeat all opponents and win the first place.

Do not!
A more accurate term should be fist power.

Today's Lu Fan is no longer limited to boxing and moves, but wins by force.

Correspondingly, he also has the momentum of a knife, a sword, and a spear.

All martial arts, he can transform into power.

This is also his understanding of practicing so many martial arts.

……

……

night.

Post house dining room.

The dining table is full of dishes, there are dozens of plates.

There are also two jars of wine.

The wine bowls in front of everyone are already full.

Everyone sat around together, and Li Yongtai was also there.

He looks happy.

"First of all, congratulations to Ye Wuchen, who has advanced to the semi-finals."

Li Yongtai picked up the wine bowl, "Come on, let's respect Ye Wuchen first."

"it is good."

Everyone raised their wine bowls together and raised their hands at Ye Wuchen, "I respect you."

Ye Wuchen responded with a smile, "Thank you!"

"cheers!"

Everyone drank a bowl of wine in one gulp.

"There is no martial arts competition tomorrow, just let everyone drink freely."

Putting down the wine bowl, Li Yongtai smiled and said, "It's just to help Lu Fan relax."

"Thank you, Lord Commander."

Lu Fan knew in his heart that the short rest tomorrow was entirely the result of Li Yongtai's mediation.

He knew that Li Yongtai was afraid that he would be too tired, so he bought him a day's rest.

But it's not necessary.

He really didn't feel tired.

Of course, even if he didn't need it, he couldn't say it.

After all, this is Li Yongtai's kindness.

Moreover, his strong physical body is his trump card, and it is best not to expose it.

"Come on, this second bowl of wine, let's respect Lu Fan together."

Filled with wine, Li Yongtai picked up the wine bowl again, and raised his hand to everyone, "Congratulations to him for entering the semi-finals in all individual martial arts competitions."

"it is good."

Everyone raised their wine bowls together and responded loudly.

"Lu Fan, congratulations."

"It won face for our Zhennan army."

"Who dares to despise us now?"

"You don't know how much the other frontier soldiers envy us."

"Come on, cheers."

Everyone said congratulations and drank the second bowl of wine.

"For the third bowl of wine, let's respect Lu Fan and Ye Wuchen together."

Li Yongtai was very interested, with a smile on his face, "Since both of them have advanced to the top four in saber arts, it means that at least one of them can get the ranking, which is really gratifying."

"Come on, cheers!"

While talking, Li Yongtai picked up the wine bowl again, and said with a smile: "You two must continue to work hard and strive to win the top two."

"Okay, thank you Commander."

"Thank you guys."

Lu Fan and Ye Wuchen looked at each other and smiled, which was exactly what they thought.

Meet the finals!

Take the top two!
"cheers!"

After drinking the third bowl of wine, Lu Fan picked up his chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls of food.

"There are 28 places for the semi-finals in seven competitions, and our Zhennan Army has eight of them."

Li Yongtai couldn't hide the joy and pride in his heart, "The other frontier troops combined are not as many as ours, and they are only half of ours."

"There are even three frontier armies that have been completely annihilated, and not a single quota has been earned."

"Several commanders saw me, and those envious eyes made me feel happy just thinking about it!"

The more Li Yongtai said, the happier he became, "Even Li Chengan gave me a thumbs up when he saw me."

"Yes."

"We felt it today too."

"It does have face."

"Whoever sees our Zhennan Army in the future can't boast a few words?"

Everyone echoed and filled the wine again, "Come on, cheers!"

……

……

At this time, the Royal Forest Army camp.

Dragon Shadow Guard kitchen.

The Dragon Shadow Guards were also celebrating.

At the big table in the middle, Li Chengan was also there, and the players sitting next to him were all the players who advanced to the semi-finals this time.

There are a dozen people.

"Come on, let's have a drink together."

Li Chengan picked up his wine glass and looked around the crowd, "We have 28 of the [-] semi-final places."

"Such an achievement is really rare."

"It is inseparable from the efforts of everyone here."

"For that, I offer a toast to all of you."

While speaking, Li Chengan brought the wine glass to his lips, "I'll do it first as a respect!"

"cheers!"

All the Dragon Shadow Guards raised their glasses together.

Putting down their wine glasses, everyone ate a few mouthfuls of food and started chatting.

"If it wasn't for that Lu Fan, we could still get a few more spots."

"That guy is too greedy, he actually participated in all the competitions, hoping to get all the rankings?"

"It's just a dream!"

"However, he is also strong enough to occupy the seven places in the semi-finals by himself."

"Yeah, it is indeed a strong opponent."

Hearing everyone's discussion, Li Chengan just smiled, and didn't seem to care.

"Don't worry, Lu Fan is not a big threat."

Li Chengan seemed to have already made up his mind, and said in a cold voice: "If you want to blame him, blame him for being too greedy, wanting everything? Then he won't get anything!"

"Humph!"

He snorted coldly and glanced at the young man beside him, "Mu Yan, I specially arranged for you to fight against Lu Fan in the first boxing competition the day after tomorrow. When the time comes, you don't hold back, you have to teach him a lesson, and let him see how powerful our Imperial Forest Army is!"

"Yes!"

Mu Yan agreed loudly, "Please rest assured, Commander, your subordinates will definitely go all out."

"Well, I believe you."

Li Chengan nodded, "With your strength, you can definitely defeat Lu Fan. But don't win too fast, try to consume him as much as possible."

"That is to say, don't let him feel too big a gap, then he may directly admit defeat."

"You just use him to hone your boxing skills."

"Wait until he's almost exhausted, then attack and defeat him."

"In that case, he won't be able to win the next game."

"Our players will have greater confidence in advancing."

"After all, a person's physical strength is limited. No matter how strong Lu Fan is, he still won't be able to recover to his peak state after fighting Mu Yan. A [-]% to [-]% strength is not bad."

While speaking, Li Chengan glanced at the crowd, "I have already arranged everything. Lu Fan's opponents in the next round are all from us. Then you can easily win and advance to the next round."

"Yes."

Everyone agreed loudly.

"Remember, even if you can't win Lu Fan, you have to create the biggest trouble for him, and you can't let him win easily."

Li Chengan was still a little worried, and instructed: "Anyway, for the sake of the reputation of our Imperial Forest Army and for your good results, you must go all out, and you must not belittle any opponent."

"Yes."

The crowd answered in unison.

"Our original goal was to sweep all the rankings."

Li Chengan suddenly changed the subject, "However, it was a short move. Due to Lu Fan's appearance, the Zhennan Army has already won a ranking in advance, and we were eliminated by Lu Fan, so let's take a step back."

"We're going to take the top two."

Li Chengan said loudly: "Just take this opportunity to let those frontier soldiers see the strength of our Royal Forest Army!"

"Yes."

……

……

The next day, in the morning.

Inside the inn.

Lu Fan meditated and practiced in his room.

Ye Wuchen was lying on the bed with a relaxed expression.

After a while, a familiar shout suddenly came from outside.

"Lu Fan!"

It sounds like Gu Chen.

"Ok?"

Lu Fan opened his eyes and woke up from the trance, thinking what is this guy doing again?
"Let's go and have a look."

Ye Wuchen got up and walked out.

"Ah."

Lu Fan followed Ye Wuchen, and the two left the post house one after the other.

Many people surrounded the posthouse.

Sure enough, it was Gu Chen again, this time he brought more people, besides his followers, there were more than a dozen noble sons.

People watching the excitement filled half the street.

Coupled with the Dragon Shadow Guards who heard the sound, the gate of the post house was completely blocked.

"What's up?"

Standing in front of Gu Chen, Lu Fan looked at him calmly.

"Congratulations, Lu Fan."

Gu Chen smiled and cupped his hands, "Yesterday's outstanding performance made a strong promotion, which is really admirable!"

"Thank you."

Lu Fan was calm on the surface, but he was a little surprised in his heart.

Gu Chen's attitude was completely different from last time.

why?
Is it because of the strength he has shown recently?
Or is there another reason?
Thinking of this, he asked, "You came to me just to say congratulations?"

"Not at all."

Gu Chen pointed behind him, and said with a smile: "It's some of my friends. They heard about my martial arts competition with you, and they all want to meet you."

"see me?"

Lu Fan was quite puzzled, "What can I see?"

"To tell you the truth, many people in Beijing have been talking about you recently."

Gu Chen smiled, and said: "Especially your performance in the martial arts competition yesterday, after being known by many people, they spread wildly, saying that you are extremely talented, a martial arts genius rarely seen in a century."

"These friends of mine, out of curiosity, all want to meet you."

"Besides, they persuaded me to come together, just to let me repair the relationship with you."

"Ugh!"

Gu Chen suddenly sighed, "Actually, I also have some regrets. I was really reckless at the beginning, and I shouldn't have challenged you. However, now everyone in the city knows that I'm stuck, so even if I want to cancel the competition, it's too late."

"It will make people think that you are afraid, so you try to get me to cancel the competition."

"That will damage your reputation and make others think too much."

"It's better for the two of us to fight happily. No matter who loses or wins, we won't dishonor our respective reputations."

Speaking of this, Gu Chen looked at Lu Fan and asked, "What do you think?"

"what ever."

Lu Fan shook his head, "I don't care. If you want to challenge me, I have already agreed. If you want to cancel, I will not stop you."

"It's just that I let you say everything."

"In front of so many people today, I also want to say a few words."

Lu Fan always felt that Gu Chen was not so kind, and he just came to congratulate him?
By the way, repair the relationship between the two?
I'm afraid it's not that simple.

Maybe there will be another picture.

But what about him?

He couldn't think of it for the time being.

However, since Gu Chen came to him again and again, he had a new idea.

Want to challenge him?
Discredit him?

Even taking advantage of the opportunity of the competition to punish him severely?
snort!
Think beautiful!
He is not easy to bully.

Last time it was too hasty, he didn't want to understand some things.

But today, he's going to fight back.

By the way, a warning to those who have bad intentions against him.

Otherwise, if they all come to challenge him, will he accept it or not?

"You said."

Seeing Lu Fan's expression, Gu Chen suddenly had a bad feeling.

"It was you who challenged me, and you set the time for the contest."

Lu Fan said: "Since you insist on fighting, how about we raise the bet?"
