Guarding the border: I am sanctified in the flesh

Chapter 95 The first of seven items, famous in the capital

Only by fighting against each other can Zhu Jingtian truly feel Lu Fan's strength, which is much stronger than him.

This is still the case when the opponent has fought multiple games in a row.

Otherwise, the gap will only increase.

Reluctantly cheering up, Zhu Jingtian swung his sword again to attack Lu Fan.

He knew that his strength was not enough, he couldn't use his strength, so he could only use his exquisite swordsmanship to deal with the opponent.

I don't want to win, I just hope to support for a while, and don't lose too ugly.

"Shh!"

Zhu Jingtian unfolded the sword technique, fully displaying the characteristics of the epee.

Wide open and wide.

Every sword is quite imposing, directly hitting Lu Fan's vitals.

Lu Fan just swung his sword casually, which seemed to be an understatement, but every time he swung his sword, he could easily dispel Zhu Jingtian's sword move, and he still had the strength to fight back.

After a few tricks, he took the initiative.

He is also confident that he can defeat the opponent with only sword moves.

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than a dozen moves.

Zhu Jingtian fell into a complete passivity, blocking left and right, flustered.

"puff!"

Lu Fan stabbed Zhu Jingtian's wrist with a sword, and with a clang, the sword fell to the ground.

"it is good!"

Cheers erupted from the scene again.

"Lu Fansheng!"

Following the referee's announcement, Zhu Jingtian picked up the sword, ignoring the blood on his wrist, and cupped his hands at Lu Fan, "I admire it!"

"Acceptance!"

Lu Fan was polite.

"The next martial arts competition will be between Lu Fan and Sui Yang. Please invite two contestants to the stage."

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Sui Yang stood on the competition stage. He glanced at Zhu Jingtian and asked, "Are you alright?"

"fine."

Zhu Jingtian patted Sui Yang lightly, "Come on!"

After speaking, he turned and stepped down.

Sui Yang turned around and faced Lu Fan.

At this time, Lu Fan had put down his sword and faced Sui Yang empty-handed.

This is a fight.

"let's start."

Sui Yang didn't want to give Lu Fan time to rest, so he took the lead in punching Lu Fan.

There was still a trace of luck in his heart, maybe Lu Fan was at the end of his strength, and he might be able to take advantage of it.

"it is good."

Lu Fan punched almost at the same time, but came later, and in Sui Yang's astonished eyes, he clashed with the opponent's fist.

"boom!"

Sui Yang flew out and fell hard under the competition platform, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

He was lying on his back, his face was pale, and his heart was full of depression.

And a deep sense of frustration and powerlessness.

Can't compare.

The strengths of the two are not at the same level at all, no matter how much the opponent consumes, he will never be an opponent.

Really too strong!
Horrible, even desperate!

"Lu Fansheng!"

The referee ended the game just in time.

The gap is too big.

"it is good!"

Everyone cheered.

Li Yongtai clenched his fists even more excitedly.

Six firsts.

There is still one last agility left, as long as Lu Fan can win, he will be able to get the first place in seven items.

Such a record, he didn't even dare to think about it.

"The next martial arts competition will be between Lu Fan and Meng Yu. I invite two contestants to come on stage."

While the referee was speaking, a flagpole had been erected on the stage, slightly thicker than the mouth of the bowl, about [-] meters high, with a flag hanging on it.

It is the military flag of the Dragon Shadow Guard.

"Lu Fan!"

"Meng Yu!"

"come on!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Meng Yu stood on the competition stage, separated from Lu Fan by a flagpole.

"Game start!"

Following the referee's announcement, Lu Fan jumped up into the air.

Many people's hearts, following his jump, instantly rose to their throats, hanging in the air like that, extremely nervous.

The last individual competition must be won.

Then we can live together.

There must be no surprises.

After all, agility is no better than other individual competitions, relatively speaking, it is the least affected by strength.

Therefore, before the final result comes out, Lu Fan's supporters are still a little worried.

"rub!"

Meng Yu also soared into the air at the same time, his body as light as a bird, and flew towards the flagpole.

The feet of the two landed on the flagpole almost at the same time, and kicked their feet at the same time, using their strength to continue flying upwards.

"Cum clap clap!"

Lu Fan and Meng Yu's bodies continued to rise, and their pace was almost the same.

There was no winner.

"come on!"

"Come on, Lu Fan!"

"Come on, Meng Yu!"

The stands were extremely noisy, and cheers for the two came one after another.

Even Li Yongtai started to get nervous.

He clenched his fists and shouted to cheer for Lu Fan.

Seeing that Lu Fan and Meng Yu were getting closer and closer to the top of the flagpole, but they never moved away, everyone was even more nervous.

Lu Fan was not in a hurry.

He hasn't started to push yet.

The continuous battles did consume him a lot, but it didn't affect him winning the game.

"rub!"

Lu Fan stepped on the flagpole, kicked hard, and his body rose into the air again.

Meng Yu is almost parallel to him.

When the two of them were about to exhaust their strength, Lu Fan did not use the flagpole again, but twisted his body, and his whole body was raised again.

In an instant, he surpassed Meng Yu and reached the top of the flagpole.

He stretched out his hand and picked up the flag violently, holding it tightly in his hand.

"it is good!"

There were cheers everywhere, and the momentum was overwhelming.

Li Yongtai stood up even more excitedly, waved his fists vigorously, and followed suit with loud applause.

Seven first!

Such a feat actually appeared in the Zhennan Army.

As the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guard, he not only has a bright face, but also has great benefits.

Li Chengan on the side had a cold face, feeling unwilling.

Today, it was a disastrous defeat for the Dragon Shadow Guard of the Royal Forest Army.

Didn't even get a title.

He, the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guard, cannot escape the blame.

Unexpectedly, in such an important contest, he was overwhelmed by Li Yongtai.

Do not!
was severely humiliated.

You have to find a way to get back to the place.

"it is good!"

Liu Zhi also stood up, raised his hands high, and cheered for Lu Fan.

He never expected that by chance, he would be able to make such an outstanding friend as Lu Fan.

Not only did he use his strength to even out the gap in status between the two, but he even felt proud of it!

Liu Mei on the side remained silent, frowning tightly, lost in thought.

The children of those aristocratic families also behaved differently.

Some applauded and cheered for Lu Fan, and some looked calm.

Of course, more people looked worried.

The sudden appearance of Lu Fan made them feel a little threatened.

……

……

in the afternoon.

Post house dining room.

The eight big round tables were all full of people.

The Dragon Shadow Guards of each frontier army were there, including the eight commanders.

Every table is full of wine and food.

The wine bowls in front of everyone were already full, and everyone looked excited.

Although many people did not get the grades, they all felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Because they witnessed the birth of a miracle.

Seven competitions, seven first!

Such achievements are astonishing in the past!
"Let me say a few words first."

Li Yongtai stood up and looked around the crowd, "I'm really happy and excited today. Lu Fan really worked hard and won seven No.1s in one fell swoop."

"This is not only the honor of our Zhennan Army, but also the honor of all our frontier troops."

"After all, we have been oppressed by the Imperial Forest Army for too long, and today we finally have a chance to feel proud."

"Come on, let's toast together."

While speaking, Li Yongtai picked up the wine bowl, "Respect Lu Fan!"

"Respect Lu Fan!"

Everyone raised their wine bowls together and signaled to Lu Fan.

"Thank you."

Lu Fan stood up and responded to everyone.

"cheers!"

Everyone raised their necks and drank the whole bowl of wine in one gulp.

"Lu Fan, congratulations."

"It's really a face for our Zhennan army commander."

"Too good!"

Cao Ning, Meng Ran, Song Yu and others who were at the same table cast admiring glances at Lu Fan and praised him a few words by the way.

"Lu Fan, let me toast you alone."

After taking a few mouthfuls of food, Qin Yu was the first to get up and toasted Lu Fan, "To be honest, before today, I was still a little unconvinced with you. But today, you convinced me with your performance, and I am completely convinced with you."

"Me too."

"Convince yourself."

Meng Ran and others also agreed.

In Li Yongtai's eyes, he was very relieved.

To convince Qin Yu, even he may not be able to do it.

But Lu Fan did it.

This is the most important potential as an officer, convincing the public.

It seems that even if the Dragon Shadow Guard is handed over to Lu Fan in the future, there will be no problem at all.

"Lu Fan, I also offer you a toast."

Ye Wuchen also stood up, faced Lu Fan, and said with a smile: "Although you beat me today, I don't want to admit defeat yet. Let's meet again in a comprehensive competition, and I will definitely win you!"

"it is good!"

Lu Fan responded with a smile: "It should be like this! In the journey of martial arts, you should chase after me. The temporary victory or defeat is nothing. We all have to look forward."

"Yes."

Everyone nodded at the same time.

"Lu Fan, let me toast you."

Qin Chuan came over with a wine bowl, "Thank you for being merciful today, I was not injured."

"Where is it?"

Lu Fan smiled and said, "You are strong enough, I just beat you by luck."

"Don't be humble."

Qin Chuan came to Lu Fan's side and said, "If you hadn't been merciful, I would have ended up with those members of the Imperial Forest Army. It's not like you haven't seen them, and they were more seriously injured than the other."

"Ha ha!"

Everyone laughed.

"It hurts well!"

"Let them figure it out."

"And look down on people."

"Is it okay this time?"

"Let Lu Fan teach the lesson alone."

"It really deserves it!"

Cao Ning and others had long had opinions on the Yulin Army, and took the opportunity to vent it.

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

Lu Fan picked up the wine bowl and said, "Don't toast alone, I can't stand all of you."

"Haha."

Everyone laughed, stood up at the same time, raised their wine bowls, "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

……

The capital at this time.

Almost everyone is talking about today's contest.

"Have you heard? Today's Dragon Shadow Guards competition, someone won the first place in seven items."

"Of course I've heard of it. I also know that man's name is Lu Fan, and he's from Zhennan Army."

"Yes, his name is Lu Fan, and he is really a genius."

"It's not just a genius, it's a peerless genius!"

"Indeed, there are not many young people in the entire capital who can compare to him."

"That's natural."

"so amazing!"

Not only ordinary people, landlords and wealthy businessmen, but even officials, families, and various sects are talking about Lu Fan.

Even in the palace, Lu Fan's name was repeatedly mentioned.

Through today's battle, too many people know Lu Fan's name.

Together with today's record, it was praised by everyone.

This battle can be described as famous in the capital!

Everyone knows that there is a peerless genius among the Dragon Shadow Guards.

Although he came from a humble background, with his own efforts, he trampled down all the disciples from aristocratic families and sects.

Many people from poor backgrounds have been inspired by this.

I swear secretly in my heart that they will also be like Lu Fan, stand out from the crowd and honor their ancestors!
……

……

The next day, in the morning.

After breakfast, Lu Fan has been meditating in the room.

The comprehensive competition will be held in three days, so he has a few days to spare.

Just take the opportunity to consolidate your strength.

He benefited a lot from yesterday's contest.

Especially with Ye Wuchen and Yan Qing, even he benefited a lot.

Presumably those two were the same.

Open the properties panel.

Name: Lu Fan

Lifespan: 17/770
Power: 139.87
Agility: 51.16
Mental Power: 50.24
Physical strength: 134.61
Cultivation level: fourth grade

Kung Fu: Vientiane Suppressing Demon Kung Fu is complete
Martial arts: the perfection of the six imperial gods, the perfection of the practice of thousands of hammers, the perfection of the body training of gods and demons, the perfection of the nine-turn golden body
Assignable Attribute Points: 150.83
In more than two months, Lu Fan's various attributes have improved.

Now his true strength can defeat the masters of the second-rank peak cultivation base.

Even in the face of a first-rank beginner powerhouse, he still has the strength to fight.

But the outcome is hard to say.

After all, the exercises and martial arts learned are not used, even if they are also at the first level of elementary level, there is a difference between superior and inferior.

But Lu Fan was not worried.

He also has 150 assignable attributes.

When it is really a last resort, he can add all these 150 attributes to his strength.

The strength will skyrocket in an instant.

At that time, even if he meets a first-rank peak powerhouse, he will be worthy.

continue!

Lu Fan closed his eyes and re-entered the cultivation state.

Ye Wuchen on the side was still lying down, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

I don't know how long it took.

Lu Fan opened his eyes, got up and got out of bed.

He heard someone calling him outside, it seemed to be Liu Zhi's voice.

Walking out of the post house, it turned out to be Liu Zhi, standing outside the post house, waving to him.

Just a carriage today.

Except for the boy driving the car, there is no other attendant.

"Congratulations, Lu Fan."

Liu Zhi bowed his hands to Lu Fan from afar, "Yesterday, my sixth sister dragged me away, and I didn't have time to say congratulations to you."

"Thank you."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "It seems that you are quite afraid of your sixth sister."

"I'm too lazy to argue with her."

Liu Zhi curled her lips, "The main reason is that she has a bad temper and really went crazy, even I can't stand it."

"is it?"

Lu Fan joked, "Are you afraid that she will beat you?"

"Ha ha!"

Liu Zhi was told what was on his mind, and laughed awkwardly, "Now I really hope that someone can subdue my sister, so that she can also taste what it's like to be punished."

"That's not easy to find."

Lu Fan shook his head lightly.

Although Liu Zhi once said that his sixth sister, Liu Mei, was of the second rank.

But even at the second rank, Liu Mei's strength should not be underestimated.

Because she comes from a super family and is a closed disciple of the head of the Nebula Sect, the martial arts she has learned must be extraordinary.

Just look at Ye Wuchen.

Liu Mei has two unique schools, so she will only be stronger than Ye Wuchen.

"It's really not easy to find."

Liu Zhi glanced at Lu Fan and said, "By the way, I came to see you today because I want to invite you to my house."

"Originally, I said that I will celebrate your achievements after you finish the big competition."

"But today, it has to be brought forward."

"It's my father who wants to see you."

Liu Zhi said in a low voice: "He specifically asked me to invite you to come home today no matter what."

"what?"

Lu Fan was greatly surprised.

He had long known the identity of Liu Zhi's father, the patriarch of the Liu family.

At the same time, he was also the former Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Like Liu Zeming?

However, because her daughter became a queen, she resigned voluntarily for fear of causing suspicion, and now she is at home.

But no one dared to underestimate this person.

Not only because of the status of the head of the Liu family, but also because of this person's disciples all over the world, many of them are important officials of the imperial court.

If you add the status of the former prime minister, it can be said that the power is over the world!
Such a big man, why do you want to see him?

And sent Liu Zhi to invite him?
Lu Fan was very puzzled.

Even if he won seven first prizes in a row, he still couldn't compare with Liu Zeming.

After all, he is just a soldier.

Regardless of status or status, he and Liu Zeming are far apart.

"I'm not prepared, I'm afraid it's not good to go empty-handed?"

Lu Fan didn't really want to go.

"fine."

Liu Zhi smiled and said: "My father said, you just need to come empty-handed, don't bring anything, or he will feel bad about it."

"Ok."

Lu Fan could only agree.

After all, Liu Zhi came to invite him in person, and he was so sincere, if he didn't go, it would be too shameful.

It just so happens that he doesn't need to practice so much now, he has nothing to do, so it's better to meet him sooner.

Save yourself the hassle later.

"please."

Liu Zhi smiled and pulled up Lu Fan's sleeves, and when the two arrived in front of the carriage, someone had already raised the curtain and was waiting aside.

After the two got into the carriage, the young man put down the door curtain, sat in front of the carriage, picked up the whip and flicked it lightly.

"drive!"

The golden carriage drove away.

Outside the Liu residence.

Lu Fan and Liu Zhi got out of the carriage and walked into the gate side by side.

Soon they came to the main courtyard, and the two entered the living room.

There is a person sitting in the hall.

He looked less than 50 years old, and his body was a little fat. He couldn't tell how tall he was sitting there, but he shouldn't be short.

That face was not fat, even though he had a beard, it could still be seen that his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Liu Zhi's.

Liu Zeming, once the number one minister in power, was also the head of the Liu family.

"I met Uncle Liu!"

After Lu Fan thought about it, it would be better to meet Liu Zhi as a friend.

"Please sit down."

Liu Zeming nodded slightly, and smiled at Lu Fan, "Nephew is indeed a man of talent, with an extraordinary appearance."

"Uncle has been awarded."

Lu Fan was polite.

The maid came over and poured tea for him.

"I invite you here today for no other purpose than to meet you and get to know you."

Liu Zeming smiled and said: "After all, in today's capital, everyone is talking about you, and I am also curious. I want to see what this legendary person looks like?"

"It made you laugh."

Lu Fan dealt with it casually.

"Where is this word?"

Liu Zeming's face was serious, and he said: "It is a good thing that young people have strength. I can only feel gratified that a genius like you can emerge from the Dragon Shadow Guard. Also, it is his honor that Liu Zhi can befriend you. You have to take good care of him in the future. If only he can be as outstanding as you."

"Don't dare."

Lu Fan said modestly: "In fact, Liu Zhi is already very good, and I can't compare."

"really not bad!"

Liu Zeming praised: "It's rare to see a young man as humble as you. Liu Zhi really saw you right. Not only are you capable, but you are also humble and low-key. Even with such achievements, you are not at all complacent."

"My strength is really nothing, I know it well."

Lu Fan really wasn't humble this time, that's what he thought.

After all, he is only a fourth-rank cultivation base now.

In his opinion, one must at least reach the Innate Realm before he can relax a bit.

Until then, perhaps he will not be afraid of anyone.

Now, keep it low-key.

Let alone the improvement of strength.

"I heard you are 17 years old."

Liu Zeming picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then asked unhurriedly: "I wonder if you can get married?"

"not yet."

Lu Fan said truthfully.

"Then do you have someone in mind?"

Liu Zeming asked again: "If there is, which girl is it?"

"Never."

Lu Fan was a little confused, wondering why the other party asked this?

Do you want to be a matchmaker for him?
No way?
The dignified prime minister, why would he care about such a thing?
"You are not too young, you have to hurry up."

Liu Zeming put down his teacup and said with a smile, "I was married long ago when I was your age."

"Not in a hurry."

Lu Fan quickly expressed his opinion, "A man should start a career first, and then a family. Now that I have not made any achievements, I really don't want to and dare not start a family."

"Your credit is not small."

Liu Zeming waved his hand, "Killing the Black Tiger Gang, fighting against the Sands Gang wisely, exterminating horse thieves, winning the first prize in the competition, these achievements are something no one else can get in a lifetime."

"Uncle's praise made me blush."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "My contribution is really not worth mentioning."

"I didn't expect you to be quite thin-skinned."

Liu Zeming smiled and asked, "Is it because the matter of getting married made you blush?"

Lu Fan couldn't answer, so he shook his head.

"Don't worry, based on your conditions, I guess a matchmaker will come to the door soon."

Liu Zeming smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, just wait and see. After the martial arts competition is over, the matchmaker will inevitably find you."

"I really don't want to think about marriage right now."

Lu Fan said solemnly: "At least until I'm 20 years old, I won't think about it. To tell you the truth, I'm not satisfied with my own strength. In the past three years, I will spend all my time on cultivation, so that I can lay the most solid foundation. When I come to the battlefield, I can make more military exploits."

No matter what the other party's intentions are, he must express his attitude.

This kind of thing must be firm, and must not be soft-hearted.

Otherwise, there will be troubles in the future.

"Okay, ambitious!"

Liu Zeming praised: "Sure enough, I saw the right person, you will become a great weapon in the future!"

"Uncle, stop praising me."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "I really can't bear it."

"Ha ha!"

Liu Zeming laughed loudly, "You young man, I like you very much. But I also know that you are uncomfortable in front of me."

"Then let Liu Zhi accompany you."

"It just so happens that I have something to do, so I need to go out."

While talking, Liu Zeming stood up and nodded slightly to Liu Zhi, "You should stay with Lu Fan well and learn more from him."

"Yes, father."

Liu Zhi happily agreed.

Lu Fan also stood up and hugged Liu Zeming, "Uncle, farewell!"

"Go."

Liu Zeming watched the two leave.

When he came to Liu Zhi's residence, Lu Fan relaxed a lot.

When facing Liu Zeming, even he felt a little pressure.

"Lu Fan, my father has never praised anyone like this before."

Liu Zhi smiled and said: "You are really good at making my father look at you differently."

"All right."

Lu Fan patted Liu Zhi with a smile, "Do you really want to kill me?"

"Haha."

Liu Zhi laughed, "Others don't have such a blessing."

The two were talking when footsteps sounded outside.

A moment later, Wu Lingzhao appeared at the door of the living room, stood there without coming in, and stared at the two of them.

Lu Fan and Liu Zhi frowned at the same time.
