Chapter 126: Wind and Cloud Monument, activated!

There are a total of ten fields given in this Wind and Cloud Monument.

The five areas of knife, sword, gun, palm and finger are relatively easy to understand for people in the martial arts world. What is being compared is the knife skills, sword skills, gun skills, palm skills and finger skills.

As for the last five, most people in the martial arts world couldn't understand how powerful they were.

Now all the people in the martial arts world are in a dilemma.

If you can’t even understand the question, how can you solve it?
Soon, however, some older people with more knowledge began to speak up. Relying on their rich experience in the world, they explained to the people around them, half-affirmatively and half-guessingly, the competition field corresponding to these six words.

Shu represents the technique.

In today's martial arts world, there are very few people who have come into contact with magic. The younger generation has only heard about related content in the martial arts stories passed down by the older generation. Some people don't even know the existence of "magic".

After all, sorcerers have been extinct in the world for at least thirty years.

Softness represents soft skills.

Although there are few people in the martial arts world who use feminine skills, there are some. For example, using whips or fans can all be considered feminine skills.

Even the palm, fist and sword techniques used by some people can be considered as soft skills.

So overall, this category should cover the widest range.

Qi represents the strange weapons.

The so-called special weapons refer to non-mainstream weapons other than swords, guns, bows, sticks and clubs, including hidden weapons.

In the current Southern Wulin, the only thing that can be related to this name is Li Xunhuan's flying knife.

However, Li Xunhuan's "No. 1 Wonder in the World" was given by No. 1 Manor in the World, not certified by the World's Most Powerful Monument. It was a high imitation account, and many people were dissatisfied.

If there is a competition in this field this time, then according to the rumors, Shangguan Jinhong's 'Dragon and Phoenix Ring', Xiao Leixue's 'Box', and many other similar masters would probably be very competitive.

Speed ​​represents speed.

If nothing unexpected happens, this field is about the martial arts masters' light-footedness.

At first glance, Qinggong should be the simplest and least offensive way of competing.

All you need to do is call all the participants together and hold a marathon race. Whoever reaches the finish line first after a long run will win.

However, the older generation of people in the industry think that this test question should not be so simple.

If we only compare long-distance running, it would be too cheap compared with the other events!
Therefore, most people believe that this "fastest speed in the world" does not only refer to the martial artists' lightness in long-distance running, but also includes the explosive speed and reaction speed shown in close combat.

Zhuang represents a villa or manor.

In the Jianghu, there are many places called "such and such villas", such as Baijian Villa, Yujian Villa, Zhengqi Villa, Kongque Villa, Wuzheng Villa, Hulong Villa...

There is also the "No. 1 Village in the World" which has been established to this day thanks to the huge reputation of the Tianxia Fengyun Monument.

But now, Fengyunbei obviously does not intend to take advantage of the other party's popularity, and wants to use the struggle in the martial arts world to personally select the real "No. 1 Village in the World".

To select the "first" one among these villas is naturally not as simple as the decoration inside the villa.

The strength of the people in the manor, Zhuangzi's influence and appeal in the world, as well as his money and martial arts secrets... will all become the criteria for evaluation.

When everyone heard this explanation, they all felt that it made sense and agreed with it.

Soon, flocks of pigeons flew in the sky.

The people in the martial arts world who gathered here specifically to get the first-hand information about the Fengyun Monument began to pass the news to the forces and friends behind them, and also conveyed back the explanations of the topic to the people around them.

If nothing goes wrong, these contents will appear on ten public pavilions of various sizes in Southern Martial Arts Forest within an hour.

Lu Ping withdrew his gaze from the sky and refocused his attention on the Fengyun Monument in front of him and the many people in the martial arts world.

Now that the message has been sent, their mission is accomplished. The next step is to try to leave their names on the Fengyun Monument.

It's just that these people are only second- or third-rate in the martial arts world, and they are sorcerers whose names are not even of interest to others. They even have difficulty climbing up Tianyun Mountain, let alone emitting energy through the air and leaving their names on the stone tablet.

The certification of the World's Ups and Downs Monument does not appear automatically, nor can only those who are recognized by it have their names left on it. Instead, as long as one's martial arts skills meet the requirements, one can have his name left on it.

Afterwards, those who have left their names will compete and show off in their respective fields to determine the final winner.

There is just one thing: leaving a name in a field that you are not good at will not be recognized by the monument.

For example, if a person is obviously good at palm techniques, but chooses not to leave his name under 'The World's No. 1 Palm', but instead leaves his name under 'The World's No. 1 Sword', then that name will be erased from the stone tablet immediately.

Of course, if one person wants to report multiple items, that's fine.

As long as the person who left his name has outstanding abilities in multiple fields, for example, someone is good at both palm techniques and sword techniques, the Fengyun Monument can also recognize his name in these two fields and will not clear it.

It is worth mentioning that the elimination and winning mechanism of Fengyun Monument.

During the three months when the Fengyun Monument is open, if the person who left his name dies unexpectedly, his name will naturally be cleared; if he is defeated by a contestant in the same field, his name will also be cleared.

The above two pieces of information are basically recognized news.

There is another one that occurs less frequently.

That is, if two or more people in the same field cannot determine the winner in the end, then these people will become the joint first in the field.

For example, twenty years ago, Shi Yanwen and Cang Jingren were ranked as the "World's No. 1 Palmist"; Hei Bai Langjun and Wang Zhongren were ranked as the "World's No. 1 Evil". Looking at the heroes who rushed forward with great enthusiasm but returned disappointed in the end, Lu Ping could feel the deep regret and loss from them.

Just then, an old voice came from the side.

"Why don't you go up and give it a try, Lu kid?"

Old man Sun was still smoking his pipe, without even raising his eyelids, and asked Lu Ping a question.

Lu Ping turned his head and smiled faintly: "Don't worry, don't worry... I'll take a look..."

As the saying goes, the first tree to stick its head out gets shot. If I go up now and leave my name behind, I will definitely become the center of the storm in an instant - after all, with Lu Ping's current strength, it is impossible for him not to leave his name behind.

Lu Ping didn't want to attract attention so early.

Anyway, the competition for the Fengyun Monument will last for three months, so there is still plenty of time left.

Half an hour later, most of the crowd around had dispersed.

An hour later, the number of people remaining was less than one-tenth of the original number.

Most people in the martial arts world have some idea in their minds and know their own strength. Even if there are one or two who refuse to give up, after the experiment, they will realize that they are not capable enough.

So they started their return journey and returned to Fengyun City to rest.

After all, it is summer now, the hottest time of the day. Ordinary people cannot stay long in a place like Tianyun Mountain where there is no shade and there are so many people around.

However, there is still a small group of people who stayed here, ready to follow the developments of the Fengyun Monument dispute in real time.

Waiting for an hour under the scorching sun is hard to endure even for a martial artist.

If you ask them what they need most right now, it must be a cool place to avoid the sun, and it would be best if they could have a few bowls of cold sour plum soup to cool off.

And where there are needs, there will be business.

The group of people who stayed behind unknowingly gathered in an inn at the foot of Tianyun Mountain.

It is said that this inn was built here only three months ago. The interior is decorated rather simply, but the scale is quite good. It can accommodate at least one or two hundred people and all the basic needs of customers can be met.

Lu Ping came here under the leadership of Old Man Sun.

As soon as I sat down, I was shocked by the prices.

"The tea fee per person is one tael..."

"A plate of egg fried rice, three taels..."

"A jar of Xinghua Village, five taels..."

"Half a pound of beef, ten ounces..."

"This is really a shady shop!"

These prices are at least ten times higher than the corresponding food prices in Fengyun City!
Hearing Lu Ping's exclamation, Old Man Sun just closed his eyes and shook his head, saying, "You can't say that. This is the foot of Tianyun Mountain. Isn't it normal to charge a higher fee?"

Lu Ping paused, then nodded in agreement.

Indeed, this place can be called a 5A-level scenic spot in the world, and it is also an SS-level dangerous area. If you do business here, you may lose your life if you are not careful. The risk is too high, so the higher price is reasonable.

If it were me, I would probably charge the same, and maybe even more!
Although the fees are high, fortunately I have enough money.

Lu Ping pulled out a hundred-liang silver note from his pocket, intending to spend as much as he could to show off to the poor fellows around him who could only afford herbal tea.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something and paused.

"Wait! Old man Sun, why didn't you pay for the wine and meat just now?"

"I remember when I walked in just now, I seemed to hear others say that here you pay first and then the food is served, right?"

Old man Sun raised his lips slightly, straightened his waist that had been bent by time, and showed a proud look on his face: "Nonsense, I'm an old man invited here to tell stories, and of course, food and accommodation are provided for me and my granddaughter!"

Is there such a thing? !
Lu Ping opened his eyes wide, opened his mouth slightly, then turned his head abruptly, looking in disbelief at Sun Xiaohong, who was concentrating on gnawing on a greasy chicken leg, drinking Pu'er tea to cleanse her mouth, and pretending that she saw and heard nothing.

This girl knows it too!

After a few moments of silence, Lu Ping's gaze towards Old Man Sun gradually became unfriendly, and then he slammed the table with a loud 'slap' sound: "Old Man Sun, tell me the truth, did you still accept kickbacks from others for soliciting customers?"

"Ahem... What kickbacks? No! No! This old man would never do such a thing..."

He denied it three times in a row, his eyes were evasive and his tone was guilty.

That proves that my guess is correct!

"Yeah……"

"I didn't expect you to be such a cunning person. I was wrong about you in the past..."

Lu Ping kept talking, and Old Man Sun felt ashamed.

In the end, the two of them turned their resentment and guilt towards each other into food, and ate and drank to their heart's content.

Fortunately, the food here tastes good.
