You promised to practice martial arts, but you have mastered the golden body and Dharma?

Chapter 64 This battle must be won!

In No. 1 Middle School, Li Jiu and Xie Mengshi visited the campus and went to Zhiyuan Building every day to experience actual combat simulations.

After defeating Shen Jie's shadow fifty times, he became a little uncontrollable and walked out of the warehouse in a daze, but his experience value increased a lot!

[Transparent Sword Technique (Xiao Cheng)]

[Experience value: 1505/5000]

The experience value has exceeded 1000, and the mastery of the Transparent Sword Technique has passed a small stage. Now facing Shen Jie's phantom, I feel that there are frequent loopholes!

Perhaps the actual combat simulation was too stiff, but the swordsmanship used by Shen Jie was very easy to decipher, as if his own swordsmanship was a small level higher than that of his opponent!

Even if you meet a real person, you can still find flaws in a very short time!
  Thinking of this, Li Jiu's eyes flashed with tenacity, he picked up his sword bag and opened the door.

"Classmate Li Jiu, let's go."

Xie Mengshi outside the door tilted her head and smiled, holding her hands behind her back, her bright eyes filled with anticipation: "Director Lu is already waiting for you on the eighth floor."

"it is good."

Li Jiu nodded and followed Xie Mengshi into the elevator. His heart sank and the fingers holding the sword bag tightened by three points.

Time flies really fast. In the blink of an eye, it’s two days before the election begins.

When I was with Xie Mengshi, I could hear a lot of stories about the characters in No. 1 Middle School, understand the character of my opponents, and also borrow some permissions to experience facilities such as actual combat simulations.

But time is rare, and the effort will pass in a blink of an eye.

"Xie Mengshi, you have led me to familiarize myself with the environment in the past two days. Don't you need to practice martial arts?"

Li Jiu glanced at Xie Mengshi beside him.

She wore loose white short-sleeved shirts with lettering and black shorts. Her fingers were linked behind her, and she always had a smile on her face: "You don't have to rush into practicing martial arts. My mission these days is to take care of you."

"Well, we're here. Let's go. I'll take you to find Director Lu."

There was a soft ticking sound, the elevator stopped, and the next second the door opened automatically, Xie Mengshi walked out, looking back to signal to follow.

Before Li Jiu could step out of the elevator, he was enveloped in a heat wave-like noise, as if he was being sucked into a warm sea.

The lights on the eighth-floor dome were bright and illuminated every corner. The crowds of people filled the rows between the seats. Even the aisle leading to the martial arts training platform was occupied by photo frames.

There was a lot of discussion in the back row.

"This year's election campaign is a bit grand. Almost all the martial arts teachers are here, and Bureau Xing is also here?"

"Of course, this class of Xie Mengshi is the most eye-catching class in Xixiang City, otherwise the blood essence of the level of the One-Eyed Blue Bird would not have been brought out in the tempering ceremony!"

"I'm so envious. If only I had enough quality to be on stage."

"Go ahead and dream, you can't even beat me!"

"Go away, I only lost once!"

Li Jiu followed Xie Mengshi down the stairs, and soon reached the front row, where he saw Lu Xing, who was gazing at the guest seat.

"Director Lu, Li Jiu is here."

Suddenly hearing a clear voice, Lu Xingxing turned his eyes and nodded: "Okay."

"Then I'll go first."       "Yeah."

Seeing Xie Mengshi running on tiptoe like a deer towards the chair opposite to Principal Xie, Li Jiu gradually withdrew his gaze and sat down under Lu Xing's instructions.

"Li Jiu, I have discussed it with Principal Xie and the others. This election will first be an internal competition for quotas within No. 1 Middle School. You will compete against their final winner."

Lu Xing's tone was as steady as an iron ruler, and his eyes were as deep as a sword hidden in an abyss.

Invisible pressure pressed on Li Jiu's shoulders. He squeezed the sword bag unconsciously and raised his eyes to scan the seat opposite Xie Mengshi.

From left to right, a young man holding a spear sat with his chest straight and his legs spread out in a splayed position. One seat away was Shen Jie, with his sword scabbard leaning against his legs. He was looking at him like an arrow, with heavy eyebrows.

Xie Mengshi had just received the black bag containing the weapon blade from Principal Xie, and put it on her fair thigh without untying it. When she saw herself looking over, she tilted her head and smiled lightly to show encouragement.

They have to decide who is the strongest before they can challenge. Even if they lose, it will not be a shame and they can take care of the face of Jiuzhong and the master.

After all, it is almost impossible for students from No. 9 Middle School to enter this election. They need to take care of one or two, and the master is leading the team, so they should be given the dignity they deserve.
  "Quiet, the campaign will start soon!"

Suddenly, a rough sound exploded on the martial arts training platform. It hit the wall and the dome and bounced off like thunder. The noise instantly flattened the entire eighth floor and made Li Jiu's eardrums tremble slightly.

Looking for a reputation, I saw a stout middle-aged man standing on the martial arts platform with a serious face: "This year is the 256th Tempering Ceremony Competition in Xixiang City. The winner will give priority to selecting the blood essence for the Tempering Ceremony. s material!"

“Next, I, Zhang De, director of the Martial Arts Department of No. 1 Middle School, will introduce the rules to everyone.

First, the election will be conducted in the form of a battle with weapons, which requires fairness and justice, and no cheating or violations are allowed!
  Second, if one side admits defeat, the battle is deemed to be over, and the attack cannot continue!
  Third, the key points of the campaign are as follows, don’t deliberately hurt others! "

After finishing speaking, Zhang Deming glanced at the leader sitting in the front row, Director Xing!
  "In addition, this election is Director Xing's first since he took office in Xixiang City. In order to promote the development of martial arts education in Xixiang City, Director Xing will provide additional rewards to talented students based on their performance within the bureau!"

"Please give your best, everyone!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiu heard exclamations coming from the audience behind him.

"Director Xing actually wants to award additional awards. It must be a big deal!"

"That's a must. I heard from the teacher that the blood essence of the One-Eyed Bluebird this time was applied for by the Xing Bureau, and it was only allocated by the provincial department for the first time!"

"He is the provincial minister who came to rectify our Xixiang City, so he must be bold in his actions!"

There was a sudden surge of noise, all expressing envy, which made Li Jiu's heartstrings twitch.

It turns out that Bureau Xing is a leader from the provincial department.
  "Li Jiu, show it well, Xing Bureau is very generous. This is an opportunity for the development of Ninth Middle School."

Lu Xing suddenly mentioned something, and his eyes fell on Li Jiu's face with anticipation.

"I'll do my best."

Li Jiu's eyes were condensed, his right hand pressed on the hilt of the sword through the sword bag, and he slowly pinched it.

If you can get the reward from Bureau Xing, it will definitely be of great benefit to you!
  Even the actual combat simulations that the first middle school students are accustomed to are surprising to him, let alone Xing Ju, who has a higher vision, what he comes up with will not be ordinary!
  This battle must be won!
  Thinking of this, Li Jiu glanced at the three people opposite him with his sword-like gaze. His fighting spirit floated to the top of his heart like a flying feather, taking his time and falling to the ground in an instant!
  "Since Ding Zhiming has abstained from running for the election, the priority for selecting the blood essence will be decided between Wu Qianhe, Shen Jie, Xie Mengshi of No.1 Middle School and Li Jiu of No.9 Middle School!"

Zhang De looked across and spread his right hand in invitation:

“Wu Qianhe, the top scorer in marksmanship in our school,

Ranked first in kendo - Shen Jie,
  Come on stage! "
