Half-life immortal

Chapter 25 Fighting swords in the arena, the girl sword dance is not easy to mess with
As soon as she finished speaking, a few guard-like guys beside Xu Shili began to blow their beards and stare. Fortunately, Xu Shili didn't care about her attitude, and waved his hand to stop the guards' rudeness.Xue Qinglan was concentrating on the competition in the arena and didn't notice this scene, but the boy Bai Yu beside her saw it clearly, couldn't help but secretly tugged at her robe, and said in a low voice: "Master, that's Mr. Xu ah……"

Xue Qinglan was concentrating right now, and didn't hear what he was saying at all. She just waved her hands impatiently and continued to stare at the field.

Xu Shili was not interested in the competition in the arena. On the contrary, he was more interested in Xue Qinglan, and said, "Junior Sister Xue, do you want to go up and have a try?"

Xue Qinglan was taken aback for a moment, but when she heard it this time, she couldn't help looking at him suspiciously, and said, "Me? I haven't signed up yet..."

Xu Shili smiled generously: "No need to sign up, as long as you want to be on stage, I can arrange for you now."

She looked hesitant, wondering if she should accept Xu Shili's invitation.To be honest, after practicing swordsmanship for so long, she is also very curious about her own swordsmanship. Just looking at it, she couldn't help but feel itchy and wanted to go up to compete, but then again, is her swordsmanship good?Shouldn't you be making a fool of yourself?After all the negative rumors about her have finally subsided, shouldn't she keep a low profile?
She hesitated and said: "I have only been a beginner for half a year, and my swordsmanship is really limited. I'm afraid I won't be able to compete with my classmates. Brother Xu's kindness is appreciated."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man in red in the arena swung the sword of the man in green into the air with one move. The sharp sword happened to fly towards her at an extremely fast speed, almost in the blink of an eye, and her position It was very close to the ring, and the surrounding audience didn't react.

Although Xue Qinglan was distracted from speaking, she was still vigilant, and the warning sign was clearly displayed in her heart, and she pulled out the saber at her waist smoothly.It's just that someone moved faster than her.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a white shadow flashing, like the light and shadow of a long sword. She only heard a "ding", and the flying long sword flew back to the ring at ten times the speed, and then stuck into the ring with a "dang" sound. slate.

"Junior Sister Xue, are you alright?" Naturally, Xu Shili next to her was the one who blocked the flying sword for her. With such a master by her side, even if she stood on the edge of the ring, she would not be accidentally injured.

She put away her sword with a smile, thanked him politely, and then looked at the long sword inserted in the ring, half of the blade was sunk into the stone slab, which showed Xu Shili's profound skills.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a person with the same reputation as Senior Brother Xi, and he has two skills.

Xue Qinglan was silently evaluating the gap between herself and Xu Shili. She had enough time to stop the flying sword just now to protect herself, but could she hit it back into the ring so accurately and penetrate the stone so deep?This may be a bit difficult...

Xu Shili said apologetically, "Junior Sister Xue, I'm sorry for shocking you. As compensation, how about I come up on stage to compete with you personally?"

"You?" Xue Qinglan blinked her eyes, wondering what kind of trick this guy was playing?
After hearing this, a woman behind him immediately became restless and said, "Uncle Xu, then I..."

There is a generational gap between ordinary disciples and direct disciples, the former always calls the latter uncle.This woman should be an ordinary disciple, you can tell by her address to Xu Shili.

Xu Shili remained expressionless, but the guards behind him understood what he meant, and they immediately walked out and took the woman down calmly.

It turned out that Xu Shili, the first disciple of Tianshu Peak who was the organizer, was also going to compete on stage.But his status and prestige are too high, coupled with his first-class swordsmanship, it is difficult to find an opponent who can match him in the entire Taiqing Mountain.Of course, they would not be able to invite brothers Xiqiuzhi and Fengyu Tianshi, so they could only make do with an ordinary female disciple of Tianxuan Peak. This female disciple was his loyal supporter. The two of them were just pretending to be on stage, who would have thought that Xu Shili would change his mind after seeing Xue Qinglan, and wanted to compete with her, so the original female disciple would quit.

Although Xu Shili was kind on the surface, but his temper was quite strong. Others had no right to interfere with his decision. If the female disciple wanted to disturb his situation, he could only signal his subordinates to take the woman down so as not to be an eyesore.

Xue Qinglan is absolutely ignorant of this inside story, and the most important thing is that she doesn't think she has anything worthy of Xu Shili's change of plan, so she didn't think about it at all. She just thought that it would be good if she could fight Xu Shili .He is a famous and powerful senior brother on Taiqing Mountain, even if he loses to him, it would not be a shame; moreover, she also wanted to see how capable this man is, and actually stole the name of Senior Brother Xi.

Hmph, no matter how good this guy's swordsmanship is, could it be stronger than Feng Yutian?
Xue Qinglan didn't realize that she had already regarded Feng Yutian as the target of pursuit. In her heart, no matter how strong other people's swordsmanship was, she was taught by Feng Yutian, so what are you afraid of?
So she agreed: "That's good, but for the sake of fairness, we don't use spiritual energy, we only compare swordsmanship."

"Okay." Facing her request, Xu Shili agreed without even thinking about it. This is his absolute confidence in his own strength. Of course, he has the capital of self-confidence.

He ordered people to go down to arrange related matters. Today's sword competition is hosted by him, so naturally he can do whatever he wants.After a while, he and Xue Qinglan both stood on the stage.

He raised his hand gracefully, showing his signature sunny smile, and said, "Junior Sister, please."

As soon as he spoke, thunderous cheers erupted from the audience, as if the audience was full of his supporters. On the contrary, the voice of the referee announcing Xue Qinglan's name was drowned out by the screams of women.

"Hmph, I know how to put on a show." Xue Qinglan muttered in her heart, flashed her special light sword, put on a fighting posture, and said, "Let me tell you first, I won't keep my hands, so don't be careless."

The reason why she reminded her was not because of her kindness, but because she felt that if she really accidentally hurt the other party, what if he came to settle the score afterwards?I don't know if Master can cover it or not...

Xu Shili didn't care, the difference in strength between the two sides was huge, how could he be injured?Regarding this, he thought that what she said was just a scene, and politely replied: "Junior Sister, just let it go."

The scene ended here, and Xue Qinglan stopped talking to him, and took the initiative to attack him first. She saw that this guy would definitely not fight first if she wanted to lose face.

Sure enough, facing Xue Qinglan's first straight stab with the sword, Xu Shili didn't even draw the sword, the sword was still in the sheath, he just used the scabbard to block it, with an extremely leisurely demeanor.

From the moment she entered the battle, Wuxiang Zhenjing began to exert its maximum effect. Her mind was as calm as water, and all distracting thoughts were gone. In her eyes, the people on the opposite side were no different from puppets who usually fight.Just when his scabbard was about to touch the edge of her sword, she suddenly changed her move, and the sword slid horizontally along the direction of the scabbard, making him miss the block.

She kept moving, turning her toes, and the sword danced in a circle, slashing towards him from the other side.

Xu Shili was not disturbed by her fake action, and turned the scabbard to block her side attack from the other side.

Xue Qinglan made a relay jump, she was in the air, the sword moved along his wrist again and again, and cut half of the silk thread on his cuff.

The silk thread was too thin, so the audience in the audience couldn't see it clearly, but Xu Shili knew that his original leisurely expression suddenly changed slightly, and he began to look squarely at Xue Qinglan, a new disciple who had just started for half a year.

Xue Qinglan kept moving, and she seemed to be able to see the red spots on the vital parts of Xu Shili's body in her eyes.Having practiced against the puppet for a long time, she has long remembered the more than a dozen vital points on the human body to the exact point, and even inadvertently, she will naturally aim at the other party's vital points.

Her sword is not very fast, but it is very smooth, and there is no pause in every change of move, as if it was planned to be that way.Moreover, she changes her moves very quickly and frequently, and she can often change her moves four or five times in the process of stabbing with a sword, which is unpredictable.

At first, Xu Shili challenged her with a playful mentality, but gradually, he found that Xue Qinglan's swordsmanship was much better than that of ordinary disciples, even better than the ordinary female disciple of Tianxuan Peak that he had reserved before. It was even more powerful, if he could defeat Xue Qinglan without using his spiritual energy, he had to concentrate.

Her flowing movements coupled with light and agile footwork gave people a wonderful sense of beauty. Xu Shili felt the most profound when he was fighting with her, as if Xue Qinglan was not fighting the enemy, but dancing.

As soon as she dances in the world, her dexterous figure and elegant hem seem to be the best interpretation.Dance is for appreciation, but sword is for killing. When these two completely different things appear on the same person, they often give people the illusion of being on a singing stage.

Naturally, Xue Qinglan did not practice dance for nothing. She was always thinking about combining dance and swordsmanship. With the foreshadowing of her predecessors, this road was not so difficult for her to walk. At the same time, she felt more and more that only in this way Only in this way can the characteristics of lightness and agility of women's swordsmanship be brought into full play.

She has practiced one hundred and eight moves, but her sword is not limited to those one hundred and eight moves. Feng Yutian's teaching is very simple: as long as the sword move can kill the enemy, it is a good move. The form of sword moves.That's why her sword is more ever-changing. She doesn't seek to defeat the enemy with one force, but only to defeat the enemy with speed and skill.

Real person battles are different from puppet practice, Xue Qinglan can use her sword skills without any scruples, but Xu Shili can't let her sword really hurt his vitals, so his originally leisurely movements become more compact , the changes at the feet also increased, and the two began to fight in the huge field.

Because it was agreed in advance not to use aura, this seemingly disparate competition is actually not so disparate.Xue Qinglan's attacking time is ever-changing, her punctuality is impeccable, her advances and retreats are measured, and her timing is very good. However, her sword practice time is still short after all, and she is still at a disadvantage for a while.

On the other hand, Xu Shili, his cultivation is indeed much stronger than Xue Qinglan's, and his swordsmanship is also better than hers, but in order to maintain his demeanor as the leader of Tianshu Peak, he actually expends far more power than he looks, Although he has the upper hand for a while, Xue Qinglan will counterattack as long as he relaxes a little.

Although women's strength is not as good as men's, but their endurance is much better than men's. Xue Qinglan is not in a hurry, and has been patiently waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the moment when Xu Shili made a mistake or neglected.

Xu Shili saw what she was thinking, and intentionally missed half a trick, revealing the empty door.Although Xue Qinglan didn't have much actual combat experience, she had an absolutely calm mind. She secretly felt that the loopholes in this tactic were too obvious. Instead of taking advantage of the victory to pursue it, she adopted a steady and steady approach, determined to fight Xu Shili to the end.

The battle between the two lasted for nearly half an hour. The sword shadows were scattered and the afterglow was continuous. It looked exciting.Xue Qinglan's sword moves are as graceful as a butterfly dance, Xu Shili's demeanor is leisurely, and it is only pleasing to the eye for laymen. Except for a few people with excellent eyesight who can tell the level of the battle, everyone else is intoxicated by the countless confrontations between the two .

Finally, when Xu Shili's eyes showed a little fatigue, Xue Qinglan knew that her chance had come, and she, who had been refraining from using her ultimate move all this time, did not hesitate to use the first part of Qingling Sword Dance - The Immortal Descends.

During the battle, Xu Shili only felt that her sword had turned into a soft red silk, which was so beautiful, but it concealed endless killing intent.At this moment, he didn't care to keep his hand any longer, and with a swipe sound the long sword was unsheathed, and the white sword light made Xue Qinglan squint her eyes unconsciously.

"Ding!"

With a soft sound, Xue Qinglan felt a light in her hand, and the light sword she was holding snapped in response, was it cut off by Xu Shili's long sword out of its sheath? !

She didn't hesitate at all, as if she had practiced countless times, she leaned back and leaped backwards lightly, dodging the rest of Xu Shili's sword.

She frowned and looked at the half-cut sword in her hand, then at the shiny long sword in Xu Shili's hand, and couldn't help but lament that this was the difference in weapons.Let's not talk about the strength of the two sides, let's just talk about this weapon, even if Xue Qinglan's swordsmanship is better than his, and she doesn't have a good sword in her hand, she can't even catch the opponent's unsheathed weapon, it's really... …

In fact, it's not her fault. The sword in her hand is the most ordinary iron sword, and after cutting and thinning, the blade becomes more brittle and cannot withstand long-term fighting.In addition, the sword in Xu Shili's hand is a high-quality sword, extremely sharp, cutting iron like mud, which is very different from her light sword.

Xue Qinglan's swords often broke during practice. She practiced swords for only half a year, but the iron swords were worn out a lot, so she wanted to get a good sword to use.The reason why she dodged so smoothly when the sword broke just now is because she usually practiced it. She has long been used to the sword breaking in the middle of the blow.

She stood up, put away the half-cut sword, and said calmly: "I lost."

The sword is broken, can you still not admit defeat?She is not a hypocritical person, she already knew that there was not much chance of winning this competition, and it would be a matter of time before she conceded.

Xu Shili heaved a sigh of relief, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Junior Sister Xue, your sword..."

Xue Qinglan said very generously: "It's okay, I still have a spare."

This point is not deceiving, she does have two spare light swords in her storage bag.But Xu Shili broke her sword after all, and felt uneasy, so he decided to make up for her after getting off the ring:
"Junior Sister Xue, the market is very lively today, why don't I take you shopping to make up for the damage to your sword."

"Okay!"

This time Xue Qinglan agreed very readily, she was worrying about having no money to buy a sword, and it happened that Xu Shili, a rich man, came to her door, so she wouldn't foolishly reject it.
