Chapter 7 I have a problem with that.
On September 9th, 394 years of the True Martial Calendar, the sun rose in the sky and the light shone on the earth.
On the Chen Clan's martial arts field, from the head of the family down to the floor sweeper, as long as they could still move, almost all of them were gathered here, because this was the annual event of the family: the Martial Apprentice Battle.
In the center of the martial arts field, the ring was built up, one meter high, five meters in length and width, constructed with three fingers of thick hardwood, very sturdy.
"Everyone ......" family head Chen Wuxiong leapt to the ring, looking around, all the people quieted down, their eyes focused on Chen Wuxiong, his voice was loud and clear: "This is the annual event of our Chen family ......"
The content of the words was the same as previous years, nothing had changed, but under Chen Wu Xiong's calm and powerful voice, it was impassioned and made people's hearts fluctuate, especially the teenagers who were about to participate in the Martial Apprentice Battle, they were even more passionate, and they couldn't wait to show their fists immediately.
"In accordance with the previous rules, first, please invite the top three internal decision makers to the stage." As soon as Chen Wuxiong's words fell, a dainty cry rang out, only to see a delicate figure leaping up from the ring, her posture as lithe as a red butterfly fluttering, landing behind Chen Wuxiong, her pair of rounded legs even more slender under the lining of the deerskin shoes.
"Miss Yu Yao is so beautiful."
"Too beautiful, if only she could smile at me."
Below the ring, one by one, the sons and daughters of the clans marveled in awe.
Beautiful, powerful, and with status, a well-deserved goddess.
Tiny sound of breaking wind, a figure like a wolf sprinted out, leapt and gently landed on the ring, this person's figure was thin, his gaze was ice-cold, and there was a scar on his cheek that looked even more ferocious.
"It's Chen Yidao."
"I knew it, he's definitely one of the internalized top three."
Chen Yidao seemed as if he hadn't heard the crowd's exclamations, his icy cold gaze looking straight ahead as he exuded a lone-wolf-like aura all over his body.
"Get out of the way get out of the way." Hooting and shouting in succession, Chen Zhongjie and Chen Dalei pushed the crowd away with force, provoking a furious rebuke, Chen Zhigang walked by gracefully, gently leaping, jumping onto the ring, walking to the center of the ring, looking around the circle, his face carrying a smile if nothing else, with a look of I'm the second and who dares to call me the first.
"Chen Zhigang!"
"It's Brother Gang."
"Gang Shao."
Under the ring, many people were excited.
Chen Zhigang was known as the Chen Family's number one Martial Apprentice under the age of fifteen, his strength was excessive, and he was also the object of admiration for many of the family's female children, his father was even the family's number one Martial Artist, his every move was quite a concern.
"Chen Zhigang, Chen Yidao, Chen Yuyao, the three of them are internalized, this point, there is no objection, right?" Chen Wuxiong said aloud, his eyes quickly sweeping over.
"No opinions."
"The three are the ones with the highest cultivation and strongest strength within the fifteen years of age, rightfully so."
Many people agreed.
"Just because the three are internally determined doesn't mean that the others don't have a chance." Chen Wu Xiong nodded his head in satisfaction, "Any other clan children under the age of fifteen who wish to compete for the top three can participate in the Martial Apprentice Battle, and the winner will then be able to challenge one of the inner three, and if they win again, they will be able to go to the clan's clan hall to cultivate."
As Chen Wuxiong's words fell, those teenagers who were going to participate in the Martial Apprentice Battle, each one of them breathed in sharply.
"I suggest adding another rule." A person sitting on a high seat rose, he wore a sleeveless martial arts uniform, the muscles of his exposed arms bulged as if they were steel, his body exuded a strong and astonishing, his pair of eyes seemed to be charged with electricity, his essence light was compelling, it was precisely Chen Zhigang his father, Chen Huzhang, "Those who are lower than the third layer of the qi and blood realm are not permitted to take part in the Martial Apprentice Battle."
"What!"
"How can this be."
"It's not fair."
As soon as Chen Huzhuang's words left his mouth, someone immediately became anxious.
The original rules, as long as the children under the age of fifteen were qualified to participate in the Martial Apprentice Battle, now Chen Huzhang's words were going to disqualify most of them, making it difficult to accept.
"Could it be that you guys think that the second level of the Qi and Blood realm can be defeated by the third level of the Qi and Blood realm?" Chen Huzhang smiled coldly, his gaze forcing people to ask rhetorically, "Which person whose cultivation is less than the third level of the Qi Blood Realm thinks that they can outwit the third level of the Qi Blood Realm, step forward and let me see."
The group of people all stopped squeaking.
"Since there isn't one, there's no point in wasting time." Chen Huzhang kindly laughed and looked at Chen Wuxiong, "Family head, my opinion is good, right, it's decided."
"I have an opinion."
Chen Wuxiong was somewhat helpless, and before he could speak, a voice that wasn't loud or even a bit hoarse rang out, attracting everyone's attention.
"Oh, who did I think it was, so it's you, Chen Zhengtang." Chen Hu Zhan was first stunned, then his face was full of sneers, "Once the family's number one martial artist, unfortunately that was once, you are now nothing more than an invalid, what qualifications do you have to oppose?"
"By virtue of the fact that I am a member of the Chen family, I am qualified to object." Chen Zhengtang's face remained unchanged as he said in a loud voice, "The rules of the Martial Apprentice Battle were initially set to provide an opportunity for all the family's teenage children to collectively exchange and spar, which is tantamount to a training session, for most people, victory or defeat is secondary, what you are doing is detrimental to the family."
"Your approach is then favorable to the family?" Chen Hu Zhan coldly smiled, "For the sake of your son, his qi and blood decayed and his cultivation was lost to the point of becoming an invalid, causing our Chen family to almost be suppressed by the other families in the town, if it wasn't for my timely breakthrough of my cultivation, now our Chen family still doesn't know what kind of defeat we would have to go through, what qualifications do you have to say something like that?"
Chen Zhengtang's face sank.
"Of course, I can give you a chance to come up, as long as you can defeat me, you can set the rules." Chen Huzhang hooked his finger at Chen Zhengtang and sneered, "If you don't dare, get as far away as you can."
Chen Zhengtang's face became even more ugly.
"Alright." Chen Wuxiong bellowed and looked towards another person sitting on a high seat, "Lord Governor, what do you think?"
This person looked to be in his forties, dressed in a blue martial arts uniform, with a lofty appearance, the eyes of the Chen Clan's crowd looked at him with a hint of awe, because this person came from the clan, and was the martial arts practitioner the clan had sent over to supervise the battle this time.
"You guys make your own arrangements, I don't have any opinions." The Supervisor looked calm and said without a hush, "I only need to bring the strongest three into the clan's Clan Hall."
"Anyone else have any objections?" Chen Hu Battle was aggressive, "Those who have opinions, come up and defeat me."
"My father is right, those who are less than the third level of the Qi and Blood Realm do not need to participate, so as not to waste time." Chen Zhigang took a step forward and walked next to Chen Huzhang, saying loudly, "In fact, according to me, the Martial Apprentice Battle can also be dispensed with because, no one is my opponent."
"This pair of father and son are so annoying." Chen Yiming said in a low voice with his fists clenched.
Chen Zhengtang also retreated into the crowd, his face full of anxiety as he had yet to see Chen Zong's figure.
"Alright, there is no need for words, this year's Martial Apprentice Battle will begin." Chen Hu Zhan said, making the decision for Chen Wu Xiong, his figure leaping high into the air and landing on the seat.
Chen Wuxiong had no choice but to leave the ring as well, and Chen Zhigang's three men also leapt off the ring.
Excluding the three Chen Zhigang Chen Yidao and Chen Yuyao, and then excluding those whose cultivation was less than the third level of the Qi Blood Realm, there were only eight who could participate in the Martial Apprentice Battle.
"I'll go first, who will fight me." Chen Zhongjie landed on the ring with a leap, his cultivation had just broken through to the third level of the Qi Blood Realm not long ago.
"Me, Chen Yang." A skinny figure leapt up and landed gently, immediately assuming the Wolf Fist Technique Starting Stance and facing Chen Zhongjie directly.
"Wolf Surge Stance!" Chen Zhongjie had set up his starting stance earlier, his feet darted in and burst forward, his fist striking out as if it were fangs.
"Wolf Flash!" Chen Yang's figure was low, his feet quickly pointing at the ground, darting away, when he was close to Chen Zhongjie, a Wolf Dodge Stance avoided Chen Zhongjie's strike and appeared at his side, his left fist was like a wolf's kiss striking out.
Wolf bite style!
Chen Zhongjie did not react well enough to be hit, his body rolled to one side, Chen Yang immediately rushed up, a fist like fangs struck at the face.
"I admit defeat!" Chen Zhongjie shouted in a hurry as Chen Yang's Wolf Surge Style paused in front of him, blowing the hair in front of his forehead.
"This son has quick reflexes and quite a bit of combat experience." The Supervisor nodded and gave an evaluation.
"Who will fight." Chen Yang defeated Chen Zhongjie as fast as he could and did not consume much power.
"Chen Chongxing has come to teach you." A figure leapt up and just as it landed, it darted towards Chen Yang, its single leg was like a long knife coming out of its sheath, slashing out at speed, bringing up a light wind to pave the way.
Chen Yang's body crouched low, once again performing the Wolf Flash Style.
The Wolf Fist Style and the Blade Wind Leg Style were engaged in an exchange of blows.
Dodging, attacking, colliding, both of them put out their full strength to defeat each other.
In the end, Chen Yang seized the opportunity, the Wolf Surge Style struck Chen Chongxing straight in the ribs, the terrifying power caused Chen Chongxing's face to change as he retreated back and forth, Chen Yang seized the opportunity to surged forward again, knocking Chen Chongxing down from the ring, winning once again.
"I apply for a rest." Before the third battle even started, Chen Yang raised his hand and said, the battle with Chen Chongxing had consumed a lot of strength.
"Granted, Chen Yang comes down to the ring to rest." Chen Wuxiong agreed, "Others may continue to go up to the stage to fight."
This practice prevented someone from fighting all the time and consuming too much strength to be picked up by a weaker person.
"I'll go first." Chen Dalei jumped onto the ring, having eaten the Tiger Bone Gel and Tiger Meat Soup, his blood qi grew and his cultivation was close to the peak of the third level of the Qi and Blood Realm, his strength had increased significantly.
His opponent also practiced the Tiger Power Fist Technique, the two of them struck out with a frontal blast, Chen Dalei with a stronger force, knocked his opponent back, and then took a big step forward, bringing up a gust of wind, and then another punch with full force, which seemed to resound like a tiger's roar.
Hitting, the opponent flew back and fell down to the ring.
"Frontal crushing, the strength is quite alright." The Supervisor nodded again.
"Who dares to fight me." Chen Dalei roared.
"Don't be too arrogant, I'll meet you." Another person rushed onto the ring and unleashed a Blade Wind Leg Attack.
After a few collisions, this person was again blasted off the ring by Chen Dalei.
"Dalei is good." Chen Zhigang nodded in satisfaction.
Only after defeating three opponents in a row did Chen Dalei ask for a rest.
With this, only Chen Yang and Chen Dalei and the last person remained.
As Chen Dalei rested, it was naturally Chen Yang who fought that last person.
"Chen Yang, you are not my opponent." The last person was a woman, named Chen Li, practicing the Blade Wind Leg Technique.
"How do you know if you don't fight." Chen Yang let out a low shout, Wolf Attack Style, Wolf Flash Style, Wolf Surge Style, and went all out without any reservation.
Chen Li let out a chorus, her long legs swept out like knives, bringing up a powerful wind spinning.
Knife Rolling Style, Knife Strike Style.
The two styles were coherent, hitting Chen Yang straight and knocking him back, Chen Li's legs were like long knives, chopping out in a chain, forcing Chen Yang off the ring.
"Chen Dalei, come up and fight me." Chen Li said in a domineering manner.
"Give me defeat." Chen Dalei leapt and landed on the ring, his power exploded with a fierce stomp, like a tiger running wildly out, a fist blast, strong to the extreme.
Tiger Explosion Style!
"Blade Chopping Style!" Chen Li also erupted with the strongest strike.
Colliding, Chen Dalei's figure swayed, while Chen Li retreated back and forth, her right leg trembling.
"I admit defeat." Chen Li was a bit unwilling, helpless as her right leg went numb.
"Congratulations to Chen Dalei for winning the Martial Apprentice Battle, next, you can challenge one of the three of them, who are you going to challenge?" Chen Wuxiong asked.
"Dalei, go down." Chen Zhigang suddenly spoke.
"I give up." Chen Dalei immediately said, jumping down from the ring and giving up his challenge, leaving people stunned.
"Chen Dalei gives up his challenge, the three of Chen Zhigang Chen Yidao and Chen Yuyao obtain the qualification to go to the clan's clan hall for training." Chen Wuxiong could only announce it, and symbolically inquired, "Who still has objections?"
"I have objections." A clear voice rang out, tearing through the silence like a sword, and Chen Zhengtang and Chen Yiming's faces changed at the same time.
