This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 270: The Rivers Flow Forever

"How is it, junior?"

Yue Xu waited there for a while, but still didn't get a reply, and he became a little impatient.

"Sorry, let me think about it."

Zhuo Buping looked miserable.

".Okay, there is still some time before the competition starts, you can take your time to think about it."

Yue Xu was displeased and spoke in a stiff tone, then turned and left.

After a while, Zhuo Buping's companion came over:

"Senior Yue Xu wants you to stop working so hard?"

It is easy to guess why Yue Xu came to find Zhuo Buping at this time.

"Ah."

Zhuo Buping nodded.

"Then did you agree?"

The companion asked with concern.

Zhuo Buping shook his head: "I said I need to think about it again."

"Ouch, you!"

My companion was speechless.

What else is there to think about in this kind of thing?

The chances of winning were slim to begin with, so what's wrong with losing the game?

You can also make friends with top dignitaries like Yue Xu, which will bring you many benefits in the future.

"It was originally a good opportunity, but you hesitated. Even if you agreed, the favor would be greatly reduced. Sigh!"

The companion sighed.

"Shouldn't I hesitate?!"

Zhuo Buping suddenly seemed to explode and asked back excitedly.

His companions were startled by him and stared at him blankly.

".Feel sorry."

Zhuo Buping quickly calmed down, apologized to his companions, and left with his head down.

"Hey."

Looking at Zhuo Buping's departing back, his companion sighed and shook his head.

On the field, the competition was in full swing.

The eight peerless geniuses took turns to compete, and they all won very easily, defeating their opponents within just a few moves.

Li Fei's opponent in the first round was a disciple of Shangqing Sect, who had reached the late stage of Qi transformation.

He did not get too entangled with his opponent and directly overwhelmed him with force:
The first strike repels the opponent, the second strike breaks the defense, and the third strike determines the outcome.

Even if only one more implant was incorporated, the gap between the Daoji Stage and the Qibian Stage would be insurmountable!
"The next match is between Zhuo Buping from Tianqu University and Yue Xu from Tianqu University."

The staff member shouted loudly holding the microphone.

Zhuo Buping walked to the sidelines and after being checked by the staff to make sure he was not wearing any protective equipment and was not carrying any illegal items, he went to pick out a long knife.

This sword is a third-level special weapon uniformly provided by Tianqu University. Its characteristic is that it is hard enough and will not be damaged even if a strong person in the Daoji period uses it to attack with all his strength.

On the other side, Yue Xu also chose his weapon - double swords.

Before going on stage, he just looked at Zhuo Buping calmly and didn't say anything else.

No matter what the other party decides, the outcome will be clear on the court.

The two walked into the stadium amid the applause of tens of thousands of people.

In the previous qualifiers, there were eight competition arenas on the field at the same time, the audience's attention was scattered, and the live TV broadcast was only fixed on a few arenas.

On the stage with the most children of the rich and powerful.
Now, everyone's attention is focused on this game, and so is the live broadcast on TV.

For the first time in his life, Zhuo Buping competed in front of so many people.

He was suddenly nervous.

Taking a deep breath, Zhuo Buping tried to calm himself down.

On the other side, Yue Xu was also a little nervous.

Although he was the son of a powerful family, this was his first time experiencing such an occasion.

However, the innate Qi he cultivated was Yi Wood Mysterious Qi, and the state of mind that needed to be comprehended was the 'heart of nature', so that one could cultivate strength.

The "Heart of Nature" can help people maintain a peaceful state of mind, avoid falling into abnormal states, and become more sensitive to the surrounding environment.

So Yue Xu was the first to calm down.

He held two swords and pointed them at Zhuo Buping in front of him.

"start!"

The referee on the sidelines shouted.

brush--

The next second, Yue Xu rushed towards Zhuo Buping.

The green force transformed into two giant pythons, one on the left and one on the right, biting towards Zhuo Buping!

This is the power of the green python, fierce and changeable.

Zhuo Buping also came to his senses, and slashed with the long sword in his hand. Two streams of flaming force turned into iron chains, firmly locking the rushing green python.

This is the fire-repellent force, which is blazing and has the characteristic of suppressing other forces.

One of them has the wood attribute strength, and the other has the fire attribute strength. There is no restraint relationship between the five elements, so the key to victory or defeat lies only in the individual's strength and performance. (Fire overcomes metal, metal overcomes wood)
After Zhuo Buping locked Yue Xu's Green Python Power, he quickly entered combat state.

The innate Qi he practiced was the Binghuo Gang Qi, and he needed to comprehend the 'heart of fighting' in order to develop subsequent strength.

The fighting spirit can keep people's fighting spirit high and enhance their fighting instincts.

So when entering the battle, Zhuo Buping quickly forgot the attention of the outside world and his mentality changed accordingly.

Facing the rushing Yue Xu, he swung his sword to meet him.

Clang! Clang! Clang!
A single sword against two swords, the swords flashed, sparks flew, and the two men quickly exchanged a few moves.

One of the extraordinary abilities stimulated by Zhuo Buping's fire-attribute implant is the very common 'power burst', so in a head-on fight, he has a clear advantage in strength and quickly forces Yue Xu back.

"Is this your answer, junior?"

Yue Xu suddenly asked in a sinister and low voice.

Zhuo Buping remained silent.

No matter how you look at it, his choice to agree to Yue Xu's request is the wisest and most labor-saving.

It would be easy to get compensation and Yue Xu's friendship.

If he chose to fight Yue Xu to the death, let's not talk about whether he could win or not. Even if he did win, although the reward for the top 32 was good, it would probably not be worth it to offend a top dignitary like Yue Xu.

What's more, if you lose in the end, not only will you not get more rewards, but you will also offend people for nothing.

but.
brush--

Zhuo Buping slashed at Yue Xu with his sword:

"Yes, that's my answer!"

Yue Xu dodged the knife and snorted coldly, his eyes turned cold:

"Fool!"

"Hahahaha-"

Hearing this, Zhuo Buping suddenly burst into laughter.

The world is so unfair, just be stupid!

As a warrior, win or lose, he just wants to fully bloom himself.

Just have a clear conscience!

Life is not easy, and many times we have to bend down and lower our head.

But he worked hard to learn martial arts and tried his best to make himself stronger, wasn't it just to be able to walk with his back straight?
Once the distracting thoughts in his mind were gone, Zhuo Buping's state of mind became more in line with his 'fighting spirit', and he was able to exert his strength more freely.

Yue Xu became more and more angry as the fight went on. Although he was not as strong as Zhuo Buping, he did not think he would not be able to win since the opponent was injured.

He just wants to maintain a better condition to fight for a good ranking.

As a result, Zhuo Buping was shameless.

"You ungrateful, lowly thing are ruining my future!"

Yue Xu was upset. The more eager he was to defeat his opponent, the more his mind deviated from his 'natural heart'.

The flow of strength becomes more and more unnatural.

Then Zhuo Buping began to gain the upper hand.

puff--

Suddenly, Zhuo Buping spat out a mouthful of blood.

His injury recurred.

"Good opportunity!" Yue Xu's eyes lit up and he immediately attacked.

He has come this far and been selected to participate in the competition, so he must have some outstanding qualities.

He quickly seized the opportunity to reverse the situation, and his mentality gradually calmed down, regaining his "natural heart", and using a peaceful state of mind to delicately control every detail.

Yue Xu gradually expanded his advantage.

But Zhuo Buping looked shaky and seemed like he would lose at the next second, but he always managed to stubbornly survive one dangerous situation after another and never fell down.

His eyes were determined, as if there was a flame burning in them.

The fighting spirit is also the unyielding spirit!
The audience at the scene was gradually attracted by this thrilling game, and they watched it with fascination, exclaiming from time to time.

If this continues, Yue Xu will still be the winner in the end.

But every time Zhuo Buping delayed, Yue Xu would feel that he had wasted one more second and was one step further away from getting a good ranking.

This made him start to get anxious again.

Yue Xu has had a smooth life and has always grown up in favorable circumstances, so he can easily maintain a calm mind and not rush into anything.

But once he faced adversity and encountered unpleasant things, his character flaws were exposed.

The true heart of nature should be the calmness and peace after going through all the hardships.

Unfortunately, as the son of the Deputy Inspector General, Yue Xu has never experienced any hardships in his life.

This problem exists not only in him, but also in the vast majority of students trained in the twelve universities.

This is also the reason why Prime Minister Ye Ze'an wants to make changes.

As time went by, Yue Xu's mood became chaotic again.

At a certain moment, Zhuo Buping took advantage of Yue Xu's failure to "breathe" in time and exchanged injuries for his own, allowing the opponent to chop him with both swords. At the same time, regardless of the worsening of his injuries, he burst out with a burst of fiery energy at all costs and locked Yue Xu's double swords tightly.

Then he used up his last bit of strength and stabbed Yue Xu's throat!
If Yue Xu's mind was not disturbed, his control over his strength was still smooth and his perception was still delicate, he would be able to break free from the restraints in time and avoid Zhuo Buping's life-threatening attack.

Unfortunately, there is no if, Yue Xu's reaction was a little slower than expected.

歘——

A burst of force deflected Zhuo Buping's knife.

"stop!"

The referee's voice rang out, and he quickly rushed over to the two men and separated them.

Yue Xu stood there in a daze, still unable to react.

"Tianqu University Zhuo Buping wins!"

The referee announced the result loudly.

puff--

Zhuo Buping spat out blood again, but a bright smile appeared on his face.

Amid thunderous applause from the audience, Zhuo Buping insisted on walking off the field before collapsing to the ground.
Soon, the venue was simply cleaned up and the game continued.

There are 32 games in the first round, 16 in the morning and 16 in the afternoon.

By around 4 p.m., the list of top 32 was decided.

Everyone can rest for a night and the 32-to-16 match will be held tomorrow.

The next morning, Li Fei arrived at the stadium, waiting for his game.

Yu Wendonghao, who is in the same division as him, will meet him only in the round of 16 to 8.

So for Li Fei, the really difficult game will be tomorrow.

He sat in his seat, having already taken a large amount of pills in advance, which were stimulating the rapid growth of [Yan Xin].

With every increase in [Yan Xin]'s strength, his physique will also increase, and the extraordinary abilities of [Steel Armor] and [Ghost Foot] will also increase.

Among so many contestants present, he is probably the only one whose fighting power is getting stronger day by day!

At a certain moment, Li Fei's name came out from the speakers:

"The next match will be between Zhuo Buping from Tianqu University and Li Fei from Wu'an University!"

Li Fei opened his eyes, slowly stood up and walked down the stairs.

There was warm applause.

In terms of popularity, Li Fei is definitely the most famous!
For many people in the provincial capital of Cang Province today, if you ask them what the name of the president of Tianqu University is, they don’t know, but they know who Li Fei is.

It’s the first in history!

Li Fei calmly walked to the sidelines to be examined, calmly chose a knife, and finally calmly walked into the center of the venue.

On the other side, Zhuo Buping had also entered with a knife, and the two stood facing each other.

Zhuo Buping looked at Li Fei not far away, with a strong desire to fight in his eyes.

The fighting spirit never gets timid because of the strength of the opponent!
"start!"

The referee on the sidelines announced loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuo Buping rushed towards Li Fei.

The blazing power of fire surrounded his sword, condensed but not released.

Li Fei stood there calmly waiting for Zhuo Buping to approach.

When the two were less than three meters apart, Zhuo Buping held the knife in both hands and slashed at Li Fei from top to bottom. Chains formed by flames burst out from the blade, trying to bind Li Fei.

But before these flame chains bloomed, Li Fei took a step to the right as if he had foreseen the future, just avoiding the area blocked by the flame chains.

At the same time, he held the knife in his right hand and swung it from right to left, and the long knife cut the back half of Zhuo Buping's blade.

boom!
With a loud bang, the long sword in Zhuo Buping's hand trembled violently, his palms cracked, and he almost couldn't hold the sword.

puff--

He spat out a mouthful of blood, his injuries relapsed, and he could no longer control his strength.

After the slash, Li Fei thrust the long sword in his hand forward. The blade cut through Zhuo Buping's body protection and stopped at his neck.

"Li Fei from Wu'an University wins!"

The referee on the sidelines announced the result loudly.

The entire process, from the start to the end of the game, takes no more than five seconds.

To the onlookers, it seemed that Zhuo Buping rushed forward and slashed at Li Fei. The next second, Li Fei suddenly appeared on the right side of his body and slashed at him as well.

Then the battle is over.

It's just plain boring.

Many people yawned.

In the seating area of ​​Shangqing Sect, Gan Jingcheng, who had a beard, narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth:
"interesting."

Directly opposite this seating area is the Daluo Sect's seating area.

Ning Chuan, with a sharp look in his brows, turned to look at his handsome junior brother Ning Xing:
"Do you understand?"

Ning Xing said somewhat unconfidently: "It seems that he has been keeping his strength at the Qi Transformation stage from beginning to end. Is he similar to his opponent?"

Ning Chuan shook his head:

"It's not almost, it's just right. The power of his sword strike was neither too much nor too little, just enough to shake the opponent's weapon and strength, thus causing the opponent's internal injuries. Finally, he cut into the opponent's body where his strength was weakest, defeating him. From beginning to end, the power he displayed did not exceed the middle stage of Qi transformation."

"Amazing!"

Ning Xing praised sincerely.

"can you do it?"

Ning Chuan asked his junior fellow apprentice.

Ning Xing thought about it seriously and said, "If I observe my opponent for a while, I can do it."

Ning Chuan turned his head and looked at the figure on the field:

"He left early yesterday morning after the game."

The implication is that Li Fei did not stay to observe his opponent at all, and all this was done on the spot.

"Amazing!"

Ning Xing exclaimed in praise again.

"Junior brother, if you want to defeat him, you have to be more careful."

Ning Chuan said so.

"It's a pity that you were born a few years earlier."

He thought so as he looked at Li Fei's back.

On the court, Li Fei nodded to Zhuo Buping, then turned and walked off the court.

He indeed had not watched Zhuo Buping's game, so he didn't know what kind of indomitable spirit and fighting spirit Zhuo Buping displayed yesterday, and what kind of unfair story was behind it.

Be unyielding or unfair.

Be it cowardice or bravery.

To Li Fei, this was just an ordinary opponent among the many he had defeated.

PS: The title is "The Rivers Will Never Abandon Their Flow", and there is a line in front of it: "Your body and name will perish together", but in fact, the word "Your body" is not very appropriate for this plot. The key point is to express the great and the small, the ordinary and the extraordinary. I hope you can feel a little bit of the artistic conception of "The Rivers Will Never Abandon Their Flow"~
There is another chapter in the early morning
