The heavens begin from Pingyang City

Chapter 76: Meeting Wang Zai for the first time in the martial arts competition
in the courtyard.

Jiang Yao was studying the sword skills of "Tianwen" when suddenly his heart moved, he put away the book in his hand and looked at the door.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door, and Li Shi's voice came at the same time: "Brother Jiang, are you there? I brought the owner and master to visit you."

"The door is unlocked, come in."

Jiang Yao said gently.

After the words fell, there was a creak, and the courtyard door opened, and Li Shi and a middle-aged man with a beard walked in.

When Jiang Yao saw the middle-aged man, he showed a faint smile and said, "Master Lin, why are you here? Please sit down."

"Young Master Jiang, excuse me."

Master Lin cupped his hands, then came to sit down on the chair next to Jiang Yao, and said with a smile on his face: "Today I saw that Li Shi's swordsmanship has greatly improved, and after asking, I found out that it was your guidance, Young Master Jiang. Come and thank me.”

Jiang Yao smiled and said, "It's nothing. Xiao Li and I have a real relationship, and I just gave a few casual suggestions. It's mainly because of his good qualifications and understanding, and his hard work that he has made such great progress."

Li Shi, who was pouring tea for the two of them, heard their words and touched his head with a look of joy on his face.

After chatting for a few more words, Gym Leader Lin suddenly changed his voice and said, "Have you ever heard of Jiang Shaoxia's joint martial arts competition in Zhou County?"

"Ah."

Jiang Yao nodded and said: "I heard something from Xiao Li Shi. I heard that it is jointly organized by the major martial arts schools in Zhou County. There is a small competition every year and a big competition every three years."

"Exactly."

Gym Leader Lin nodded and said: "Actually, the three-year martial arts competition held by the eight strongest martial arts gyms in the county and other small martial arts gyms together with other small martial arts gyms is considered a formal competition. Our martial arts gyms jointly hold private competitions once a year. The martial arts competition is just an imitation, so it is also called the martial arts competition, but even so, it is an annual event in the county."

As he said that, he took out a gilded invitation and said: "In a few days, this year's martial arts joint competition will be held. Although our Fenglin Martial Arts School is weak, we are one of the participating martial arts schools and have won several Lin sent a special guest invitation to Jiang Shaoxia. If you have time, you can go and take a look."

With that said, he put the invitation on the table.

After understanding that Jiang Yao cares about the disciples of his martial arts school, Master Lin must take the opportunity to build a good relationship. After all, for such a young and powerful person, it is almost certain that he will be on the list in the future. By then, this friendship will be valuable.

It happened that the martial arts school got a few VIP invitations for United Xiaobi, so he came over and gave one to Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao smiled in his heart, it turned out that he came here to show his goodwill, but in his eyes, things like martial arts competitions were just a small fight, and he really wasn't interested.

Seeing Jiang Yao's look, Master Lin hurriedly said: "Young Master Jiang doesn't know something. Although it is only a small competition in the martial arts hall once a year, by then Zhou Junwang's family, Huanhua Sword Sect, Yedu Liumen, Zhou Important figures from major forces such as the Jun Huang Family will also be present to select martial arts disciples with good qualifications. That will be the best opportunity to make friends. If you can form relationships with major forces, it will be of great benefit to Jiang Shaoxia's future. .”

He thought Jiang Yao was a casual cultivator, and pointed out to him that this kind of competition was a good opportunity to get in touch with major forces.

After all, casual cultivators are not easy to get along in the cultivation world, and it is too difficult to achieve success in outdoor scenes. If you can become a guest minister of major forces, and get the support of these forces' skills and resources, the possibility of achieving outdoor scenes will be greatly increased. .

Seeing the longing expression on Guilin Master Lin's face when he talked about these powerful forces, Jiang Yao suddenly felt enlightened.

Having been in contact with the core disciples of major sects such as Zhang Yuanshan, Jiang Zhiwei, Xijian Pavilion and Xuantian Sect in the reincarnation space, Jiang Yao has not felt much about how much he yearns for these powerful forces in the eyes of ordinary people.

After understanding the other party's good intentions, he smiled and said: "In that case, I would like to thank Master Lin. Jiang understands. If I have time, I will go and take a look."

Looking at the invitation on the table, Jiang Yao smiled in his heart. After spending so much time in Yedu, it would be nice to go and meet the real powerful figures in Yedu.

After chatting for a while, Master Lin left with Li Shi.

Jiang Yao picked up the invitation on the table with a thoughtful look on his face.

With the passing of the New Year, all walks of life in Yedu have resumed production, and martial arts schools of all sizes have also opened their doors.

On this day, all the disciples of Feng Lin Martial Arts School, led by Master Lin, came to Shenghe Martial Arts School in the center of Yedu, which was the venue for this year's joint competition between the martial arts schools.

Li Shi is among them, and as a participant of the martial arts gym, he represents the martial arts gym in the competition.

He held the wooden sword in his hand tightly, recalling the swordsmanship taught by Jiang Yao in his mind. In the past few days, he had stepped up his practice and gradually mastered the essence of Feng Lin's swordsmanship.

Looking at Shenghe Martial Arts School, which was infinitely grander than his own, he secretly vowed in his heart that he would get good results this time and not let Brother Jiang, his parents, and teachers down.

As one of the eight major martial arts schools in Zhou County, Shenghe Martial Arts School has the support of a truly powerful force in Zhou County, so it is naturally very spacious.

There are several complete martial arts performance halls in the martial arts hall, and each hall has several competition venues.

There is a majestic high-rise building in the center of the martial arts hall. Standing in the rooms on the top of the building, you can clearly see the situation in several martial arts performance halls.

People from major aristocratic families, sects, six sects or other forces in the county and city select civilian disciples who have performed well in competitions and have decent qualifications.

At the same time, in addition to these forces, there are also celebrities from the county and city, distinguished guests from various martial arts gyms, etc. who come here to watch the competitions in various martial arts gyms, Jiang Yao is among them.

At this time, he was leaning casually by the window on the second floor, watching what he regarded as a trivial game below, while quietly sizing up the people around him.

His eyes at this time were mainly focused on a few figures in the hall with the best view on the second floor.Among them, the one who caught Jiang Yao's attention the most was a young master. He had a square face and elegant temperament. His every move gave people a very standard feeling. The most important thing was that Jiang Yao could faintly detect a hint of Qin Qin in him. Xunzi in the world has a very similar aura.

At such an age, with such momentum, and appearing on this occasion, Jiang Yao guessed that the other person should be a disciple of the Wang family of Zhoujun, but he didn't know if it was the Shouzheng Sword Wang Zai in the original work.

Next to him were the Qingshuo head catcher from the Six Gates of Yedu, the personnel of the Huanhua Sword stationed in Yedu, and important figures from various major forces such as the Huang family.

At this time, everyone was looking at the competition among the many martial arts disciples below, looking for some martial arts disciples with good qualifications.

At this moment, Wang Zai, who was watching the game below, suddenly felt something in his heart.

He turned around and saw a handsome young man wearing a mysterious robe in the room next to him looking towards him. He noticed his gaze, and the other man smiled at him and looked away.

"Who is this?"

Wang Zai nodded slightly to the other party, and then quietly sent a message to the old servant behind him to ask.

The old servant followed Wang Zai's gaze and then sent a message: "Master Qi, he is the gentleman Dao Jiang Yao who has just become famous in the past two months and ranks among the outstanding people in Zhou County. According to our information, he He has long been on the list of people, but for some reason he has never shown his true strength, nor has he shown any achievements, so he has never been on the list."

"I see."

Wang Zai nodded slightly. He had recently mastered the 'Nine Swords of Saints' passed down by his family for the first time, and mastered the 'Mighty and Unyielding' in the clan's magical skill 'Haoran Zhengqi'. His perception has greatly increased, and he can actually feel it from the opponent. A hint of pressure, which made him feel a little surprised.

It turns out that the strength of the people has long been on the list, but because there is no record of the young strong man who has not yet been on the list, no wonder he can feel threatened.

Thinking of this, he felt a hint of joy in his heart. He was just beginning to master martial arts, so he was a good opponent.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the people next to him turn their attention to a martial arts performance hall.

He also looked back, looked over, and found that it was a competition between two teenagers.

One of the young men had obviously learned the essence of his swordsmanship, and the sword in his hand had a hint of spirituality. He was obviously a little weaker than his opponent in cultivation, but he firmly grasped the form on the field and defeated him in a moment. opponent.

"good."

Wang Zai said with a smile: "I have understood a hint of the true meaning of swordsmanship at a young age, and I have broken away from certain constraints. I am a good young man who practices swordsmanship."

The people around him also nodded. Of course, everyone looked down upon this little guy's strength.

But at such an age and with such cultivation, he has mastered a hint of the true meaning of swordsmanship, which proves that he still has a certain talent in swordsmanship. He is a pretty good civilian seedling. After receiving his own power and training, he is also a good fighter.

On the other side, Jiang Yao withdrew his gaze and put it on the field. He didn't expect that this Wang family disciple's perception was so sharp. Although he didn't deliberately restrain his energy, he could detect his gaze. It's not bad, he is worthy of being a person who has practiced Dharmakaya-level magical skills.

Seeing that Li Shi had used the essence of the swordsmanship that he had pointed out to him on the field, and easily defeated his opponent, Jiang Yao showed a satisfied look, and he did not embarrass himself.

In the next few games, Li Shi became more and more proficient in his swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship became more and more pure. The essence of the swordsmanship he mastered was completely integrated into the swordsmanship he practiced, and he won several consecutive victories. field.

Although he ultimately lost to the disciples of Shenghe Martial Arts School due to the large gap in cultivation, it also attracted a little attention from some forces.

After all, these forces don't care who wins, they care about the talents and qualifications of the martial arts disciples.

As the intelligence on Li Shi was collected, because Jiang Yao did not hide his instructions to him, his information was also known to these forces, and his figure also fell into the eyes of these big forces.

At the Sixth Gate of Zhou County, Hong Yan looked at the information in his hand and whispered: "Are you sure about his strength?"

The governor in front of him hurriedly said: "Professor Hong Qing, although this man has made many attacks, it seems that he was just to hone his sword skills and did not use his full strength, so he is not sure, but according to the Judging from the ease with which the opponent fights these battles, he is no less powerful than the human list."

As he spoke, he glanced at his superiors carefully and said, "Professor Qing, do you want to send someone to investigate him?"

Hong Yan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, since he took action, it proves that he did not hide his whereabouts on purpose. Since he is in our sight, as long as there is no trouble, don't provoke him."

"Yes."

The governor nodded, and then asked: "It seems that he is a casual cultivator, so should we win him over to the Sixth Gate?"

It is also one of the responsibilities of the headhunters in various places to recruit various casual cultivators for the Six Sects and enhance the strength of the imperial court. In particular, the young and strong people who are on the list will be rewarded by the Six Sects headquarters. Therefore, he Just ask.

"never mind."

Hong Yan thought about it and said, "Don't move for now. Judging from his condition, he should be on the list soon. We'll talk about it then."

"Yes."

Zhoujun Wang's family, Wang Zai looked at the information in his hands with a smile on his face. He became more interested in Jiang Yao and looked forward to a battle with him.

At the same time, the Huanhua Sword Sect, Zhoujun Huang Clan and other forces also obtained Jiang Yao's information, but they did not do anything else. A figure who has not yet entered the list is not worthy of their attention.
