Chapter 47: The best in the world!

Li Guanyi sat there cross-legged and heard General Xue's praise, but there was no fluctuation in his eyes. The time he spent with this guy was not too long, only about a month at most.

This may be a bit short, but it is completely different if you say that he was taken by the world's top generals and was ravaged in all aspects of military strategy, tactics, warfare, and even scheming for a month.

There's just too much stimulation.

Li Guanyi felt numb.

I learned from the old man that Guanyi City will undergo great changes, but I have no fear in my heart.

He learned from General Xue that he had reached the entry checkpoint, but he did not feel ecstatic.

It's like a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples.

Li Guanyi sighed.

Old Den mistaken me!

The young man raised his eyebrows and asked, "So? What else do you need?"

Xue Shenjiang raised the corners of his mouth little by little and replied, "It only takes a little bit of opportunity and a little bit of tempering to break through. As for the process of fighting, it is not necessary. The rest, such as this Taoist priest and that Living Buddha, were not good at fighting before entering the country."

"With your means, you met the Daozi and Fozi before entering the country."

"Within thirty steps, I can kill him in seven moves."

General Xue said some horrifying words in a calm tone.

Li Guanyi thought for a moment and asked, "Why do we need seven moves?"

General Xue smiled and said, "Because the Taoist priests were very fast runners before entering the country, and the monks are very resistant to beatings."

"It's not easy to kill."

"If you hold a spear, wear armor, and hold a crossbow, even if there are a dozen monks before entering the country, it will not take you one stick of incense to kill them. However, the problem with these two sects is that after entering the country, they each have their own mysteries, and they follow a different path from the warriors who simply improve their physique and strength."

"After entering the country, the warriors will be at a disadvantage if they are far away. Don't let up with your archery. Also, I have a gift for you. This is a really good thing..."

"Taoism is about the heart of Taoism, Buddhism is about the nature of Buddha, and Confucianism is about knowing the destiny of heaven."

"I have some in my military family too."

"Want it?"

General Xue smiled brightly.

Li Guanyi looked at General Xue and said cautiously, "You will force me to give it to you even if I don't want it, right?"

Xue Shen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his smile became warmer and warmer, and said, "Yes."

boom! ! !
A shadow flashed before his eyes, and then an enormous force came crashing down.

Li Guan instinctively raised the weapon in his hand.

The tiger's mouth trembles violently!

The blade of the heavy sword shattered, and the broken blade passed across Li Guanyi's cheek like collapsing frost and snow. The boy's pupils contracted violently, and his heart skipped a beat. Then he curled up his body and retreated with his battle instinct, stretching to release the force and avoiding the ground that was shattered at that moment.

As he retreated, he raised his hand and grabbed the spear that was stuck upside down on the ground. The spear was resilient and pulled out an amazing arc, which also relieved the force on Li Guanyi. He fell to the ground, pulled out the spear, and turned it into the crouching tiger style of ancient spear technique, but the next moment, the sound of tearing the void exploded.

Li Guanyi's spear was instantly shattered by an arrow.

The next moment, my throat felt sore.

The death-like fear gripped Li Guanyi's heart.

He half-knelt on the ground, breathing heavily, but still staring at the smoke in front of him.

It was the sound of a tiger roaring, but it also sounded like the hum of a weapon.

A halberd pierced through the smoke and dust, its entire body was black and sharp as a spear.

Then the halberd turned slightly and swept to one side, and the smoke and dust dispersed. General Xue stood there, holding a bow in one hand and a halberd with a tiger's mouth in his right hand. When the halberd swept through the air, the white tiger's mouth made a sound like a tiger's roar, as if it came alive.

The blade of the halberd was against the ground, and General Xue said calmly:
"What a military strategist needs is the determination to draw his sword and the will to fight any powerful enemy."

"There is no enemy in the world that we cannot defeat!"

"There is nothing in the world that we cannot accomplish!"

"I will personally build it for you before entering the country, the heart that dares to draw the sword against all the kings in the world!"

Li Guanyi panted, stood firmly, and his heart was filled with waves.

The young man's reaction to this number one general in the world was to stretch out his hand and raise his middle finger.

Xue Shen raised the corner of his mouth: "It seems that you have such a heart."

"So, your opponent is..."

He pressed his halberd against the ground and walked forward slowly. The halberd left a trace of cracks on the ground. The dust behind him did not disperse, but rose up strangely and gathered behind the general, turning into the shape of a white tiger with a ferocious look on its face and exposed fangs.

Hold your head high and roar!

Although he could have defeated those heroes of the same level as those from five hundred years ago, Li Guanyi felt a suffocating oppression. He still had the courage to hold the bow and shoot the arrow, but it was chopped apart casually by the god general as if he was strolling in the garden.

Even the distance of each step is exactly the same, without the slightest change.

Finally, he casually raised the halberd and swept it violently. Li Guanyi felt that his body was almost falling apart.

A shadow passed before my eyes.

The war bow chopped down like a sword, as if the entire sky was pressing down at this moment. General Xue was extremely tall, his face and body were covered in shadows. The white tiger was behind him, raising its head and howling, so General Xue's face could not be seen clearly.

Only those eyes were cold and arrogant, as if they were on the top of a mountain, overlooking the crowd.

"Number one in the world!"

........................

When Li Guanyi left the secret realm, he felt a sharp pain on his forehead. General Xue also limited his strength to the level below the entry level, but the oppression he gave to Li Guanyi was too strong. His powerful aura was simply that of a monster.

The best in the world...

The fight lasted for two hours.

In the end, Li Guanyi just tried his best and cut down General Xue with his sword.

After that blow of the knife, all the previous fear and oppression seemed to be completely torn apart.

A breath of fresh air in the chest, a refreshing relief!
Li Guanyi's filter of being the best in the world was shattered.

What remains is like a crazy fight between tigers.

And then that was it. Li Guanyi experienced what it meant to have invincible martial arts experience points and the best combat experience in the world, and the fact that he was still a monster even if he lowered his realm.

It was dawn.

Li Guanyi rode a horse slowly towards Guanyi City. The horse belonged to the Xue family. Li Guanyi had never ridden a horse before. The horse had a fierce temperament, but it seemed to be able to sense the dragon and tiger aura in Li Guanyi. It was very timid towards Li Guanyi and went wherever the horse was told to go.

Be timid and obedient.

His aunt had already arranged for him to stay in the private courtyard in the front yard of the Xue family, so Li Guanyi naturally returned to the Xue family.

He took the horse back to the stable and brushed it.

But he heard a loud laugh: "Hahaha, Guanyi, you're back just in time." Li Guanyi turned around and saw Xue Daoyong, whom he hadn't seen for a few days, striding out. He was wearing a blue gown and his hair was tied with a jade hairpin. He looked more casual than usual and three points more elegant. Next to him was Xue Shuangtao, who was dressed like when they first met.

It seems that he has been too familiar with the image of a girl holding a bow and riding a horse for some time. Xue Shuangtao, who was wearing a skirt, a jade hairpin in her hair, a flower ornament between her eyebrows, and gentle eyes, was a little unfamiliar. Her eyes were bright and clear, and she seemed to have put on some light makeup, which made her more beautiful than before.

Xue Shuangtao noticed Li Guanyi's gaze, lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with both hands, and saluted with a smile.

Get up.

He kicked the boy's calf lightly, but it didn't hurt. He whispered, "What are you looking at?"

Li Guan smiled and said, "This is the young lady I am more familiar with."

Xue Changqing nodded repeatedly: "Right, right, tigress!"

"Oh!"

"Grandpa, my sister hit me!"

The young man stood there, watching with a smile. Xue Daoyong said, "A few days ago, a great scholar came to Guanyi City. Now there is a great literary gathering. Most of the scholars and celebrities in the entire Jiangzhou area are coming. It is considered the largest event in the Chen Kingdom in the past 30 years. My Xue family has a visiting card. Changqing can't control his temper."

"Guanyi, come with me."

The old man patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "Let them know that my Xue family also has a Qilin child."

"This is your chance to become famous in Chen State and even in the world."

Zhang Sun Wu Chou smiled and said, "Looking at this little brother, he is good at both literature and martial arts, so he is definitely not bad."

"I will go with you this time."

He had received the reply from the second young lady. The letter was written with flying words, and there was only one sentence in it - 'If there is any change in Guan Yicheng, protect him.'

The biggest literary gathering in thirty years?

Li Guanyi suddenly thought of what Mr. Siming said about the civil and military spirit, and the so-called favorable time and place.

He suppressed all kinds of thoughts and said, "Okay."

Then he changed into a Confucian robe and a leather belt around his waist. After hesitating for a moment, Li Guanyi took the sword and bow, as well as two pots of three-edged steel arrows with inverted hooks, and placed them on the hooks on both sides of the horse. He jumped on the horse. The young man was heroic, with a bright look and full of vigor and vitality. Changsun Wuchou also praised him.

The old man of the Xue family, his eldest grandson Wuchou, was riding in front.

Li Guanyi was about to catch up, but he heard a light knocking sound on the carriage next to him.

Li Guanyi pulled the reins and rode his horse parallel to the young lady's carriage. The young lady lifted the curtain and said:

"There will be a literary meeting later, remember to stay with me."

Li Guanyi raised his eyebrows.

Xue Shuangtao said: "Otherwise, those children of noble families and descendants of Jiangzhou officials will come to bother me."

Li Guanyi smiled and said, "Miss, do you want me to be a shield?"

“This will cost extra.”

Xue Shuangtao placed both his hands on the small window of the carriage, his chin resting on the back of his fair hands, and tilted his head slightly, making the sound of his pearls and jade.

The girl has a beautiful face.

Under the morning light, he said with a faint smile:
"Well, let's calculate how much your bow, arrows, horse, sword, and pills are worth?"

"My great guest, sir?"

Li Guanyi coughed, turned his head, and said without looking away: "Leave it to me later."

The girl couldn't help laughing.

The morning light was dim, and the shops on both sides had just opened not long ago. On the bluestone slabs, the traces of rain had not yet dried up, leaving some water marks. A horse-drawn carriage was moving forward, and a crowd of people was surging. The girl was dressed in gorgeous clothes, smiling faintly, her hair swaying slightly. The young man was riding a horse, looking straight ahead, and his years were peaceful.

The sound of horse hooves ticking.

The literary gathering was actually held in the royal villa of Guanyi City. When the Xue family arrived, the carriages were already lined up on the avenue. Gifts were piled on both sides of the gate like two walls. Each gift was covered with red satin, which itself was a kind of money that could be spent.

Li Guanyi said: "So, celebrities are so rich?"

Changsun Wuchou said, "He is a famous scholar."

When the old man got off the horse, many dignitaries had already come forward with respectful and polite looks on their faces. The old man smiled generously, and Changsun Wuchou also responded to such things calmly and with reason.

Li Guan was bored and looked up. The bronze tripod's pupil technique made him feel something was wrong.

However, without practicing the Yin-Yang School's Qi-Observing Technique, one cannot see clearly.

I saw that some young nobles had already gathered around Miss Xue's carriage.

Yes, my family is one of the most wealthy merchants in the world, my aunt is the most favored concubine of the current emperor, and my grandfather is a first-rate strong man. In terms of family wealth, it is tens of millions; in terms of family background, he is also the descendant of Duke Xue, who was the most famous general in the world five hundred years ago.

He had an elegant appearance and was skilled in playing the zither, archery, and mathematics.

A favorite in the eyes of the children of wealthy families.

Li Guanyi heard a soft "dong dong dong" sound coming from the wall of the carriage.

There was a pause, and then he seemed to increase his strength as if a little annoyed, and there was also the sound of the girl coughing.

Li Guanyi drives the horse.

Those noble young men were still introducing their family backgrounds, and even if the girl in the carriage tried to persuade them to leave in a gentle voice, it was useless.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, he heard a horse neighing and a gust of evil wind. The horse, covered in red hair, stood up and its hooves landed. Its body blocked these young men from noble families, frightening them so much that their faces turned pale.

He cursed a few times and looked at this place angrily.

Seeing the young man with a sword on his waist pulling the reins, his brows raised, and his heroic spirit could not be concealed by the Confucian robe with dark cloud patterns. There was a wooden sign hanging from his waist, indicating that he was a ninth-rank military official. This rank was not high, but if it was combined with his age, it would be a bit scary.

Li Guanyi sat on his horse and said with a smile, "Everyone, please go back."

Those noble family disciples asked, "Who are you?!"

Li Guanyi did not answer, but dismounted decisively.

One hand held the reins of the horse, and the other hand stretched out, then the curtain of the carriage was pulled open, and the girl in a skirt stretched out her hand. When noble women got off the carriage, they were often supported by maids. This time, Xue Shuangtao gently placed his fingers on his friend's wrist and walked out of the carriage.

There was silence all around.

Mr. Xue was already holding a scholar who was only about thirty years old and laughing. He pointed at the young man who was full of vigor and said:

"How about my Qilin son, Master Wang Tong!"

…………

At the city gate, Sima Ming, the Yin-Yang master who was waiting here, raised his head and the old man looked at the sky.

This was the most grand literary gathering in the State of Chen in the past thirty years, and the literary spirit it had gathered was soaring into the sky.

The old man murmured, "It's about to begin."

At this moment, Yue Qianfeng, who represented the martial energy, stood ten miles outside the city gate.

The civil and military energies, like yin and yang, have risen to the sky, and the yin and yang flow on the ground like a yin and yang fish, and they are about to fit together -

Li Guanyi paused slightly.

Heart burning.

The bronze tripod seemed to sense something and suddenly began to hum violently.
