Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 134 The First Competition
"Look! Number 17 is a disciple of the Jingzhou official martial arts school!"

As the man spoke, he pointed at the young man in the light blue Taoist robe in the martial arts field.

The man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, of medium build, and looked calm and reserved.

In the martial arts arena, warrior number 130, who was standing at the other end of the warriors in light blue Taoist robes, was about the same age as warrior number 17 and was also the introverted type.

"What about number 130? Does anyone know him?"

"Do you even need to ask about number 130? Isn't it obvious from the clothes he's wearing?" The speaker was full of confidence and his tone was very certain.

"Brother, it seems you know?"

The confident man was about to answer when the person next to him beat him to the punch and blurted out, "Isn't his identity written on his clothes?"

"Written? You mean the words embroidered on his clothes?"

Upon hearing this, everyone followed the voice of the person who asked the question and looked at the clothes worn by No. 130 in the martial arts field, carefully searching for the words embroidered on his clothes.

Jiang Xuan was no exception. After hearing what everyone said, he was naturally curious about the identity of the 130th warrior, and his eyes followed him.

However, Jiang Xuan's focus was different from everyone else's. He discovered that the clothing worn by the 130th warrior was surprisingly the same color as the water he and Sha Lao had seen at Lingsong Lake that day.

Even though Jiang Xuan stopped looking at the words embroidered on number 130, he still had some realistic guesses in his mind.

After all, Qizhou is a city with thousands of lakes, and the beautiful scenery of Lingsong Lake stands out from the various lakes in Qizhou, a place with thousands of lakes. It is naturally very outstanding.

Therefore, it is not easy to say more, nor to mention anything else. Just talking about Lingsong Lake, its name is well-known in at least several surrounding states.

"It's too far away, I can't see clearly!"

"Yes, the words are embroidered so small, who can see them clearly?" After saying that, the man gestured on his little finger, his tone full of helplessness.

……

Everyone was talking about it, and the confident man spoke again slowly.

"Aquamarine Taoist robes with sand-colored characters. There's no other Taoist like this in the Five States."

The words fell calmly, but those who were interested in it pricked up their ears and listened to his subsequent words.

"Have you ever seen any other martial arts schools in the Five States wearing clothes of such special colors?"

After hearing this, everyone thought about it carefully and shook their heads.

"Isn't this just turquoise? What's so special about it?"

"Isn't this turquoise color? But it does look a bit like it."

"There are quite a few that are similar, but this color is much better than any I've seen. It has a kind of indescribable...elegance."

"That's so expensive! I asked my wife before. Not to mention custom-made ones, even the special colors are several times more expensive than ordinary clothes. Ordinary people really can't afford it!"

"It must be a problem with the dye. Every new color released on the market needs to be registered and approved. It's too difficult to come up with a new color!"

"Yeah, new colors aren't as popular as standard and mass-market colors. If you spend so much time researching and it doesn't catch on in the market, what's the point?"

"So what if it's popular? Everyone should buy nice-looking clothes with good colors. But who among us ordinary people would be willing to spend such a large sum of money on a useless piece of clothing?"

"So, the most profitable colors are definitely not the most unique or the best-looking ones, but the ones that are both beautiful and affordable."

"Isn't beautiful clothes useful? How can you say they are useless?"

……

The audience chattered at once, gradually diverting the conversation...

"This color is translucent, similar to the color of Lingsong Lake."

"You know what, they really do look alike." "That's the point." The confident man raised his lips and added, "Any color of this clothing that isn't a standard or popular color is likely custom-made."

"Specially made? How much would that cost?"

"What kind of martial arts school is this? How come I've never heard of such a domineering martial arts school?"

"Anyway, it's not the official martial arts school of the Five States. I've seen the costumes of the official martial arts schools of the Five States."

"Maybe it's changed?"

"Look down at the Heavenly Stage Martial Arts Arena. Aren't all the disciples from the official martial arts schools of the five states waiting to take the stage? Are their attire any different from previous years?"

……

The confident man stopped everyone's argument.

"The clothes worn by number 130 are definitely not the uniforms of an official martial arts school."

"The azure Taoist robe embroidered with sand-colored characters is the uniform worn by the disciples of our private martial arts school in Qizhou."

"A private martial arts school?"

"How do we, from other states, know about your private martial arts school in Qizhou? Is it very famous?"

"Is there even a need to ask? With such a creative mindset, this definitely isn't some ordinary martial arts school with no name!"

"What are you showing off for? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Say it quickly!"

……

"Let me tell you! This is the most powerful martial arts school in Qizhou besides the official martial arts school - the Hu Se Martial Arts School. Although it is a private martial arts school, it is indeed powerful and is not inferior to those..."

The confident man was interrupted by an excited male voice before he could finish his words.

"Stop talking! Look, look!"

The man pointed at the two people on the martial arts field and was so excited that he almost jumped up.

After being disturbed by him, everyone immediately lost interest in chatting and followed the man's gaze towards the martial arts arena...

The two warriors on the field were both holding a three-foot sword. Except for some differences in the decorations on the swords, they looked generally similar.

The actions of the disciple of Jingzhou Martial Arts School, dressed in a light blue Taoist robe, were as calm and reserved as his temperament.

What no one expected was that the disciple from the Lake Color Martial Arts School, who looked equally introverted and wore a water-green Taoist robe, had a fighting style that was completely different from his appearance and temperament, as if he had become a completely different person!

Everyone watching the competition held their breath and stared closely at the movements of the two people on the training ground.

The next moment, the disciples from the Huse Martial Arts School drew their swords and knocked away the disciples from the Jingzhou Martial Arts School one after another.

The disciples of Jingzhou Martial Arts School were unable to withstand the attack and were slightly at a disadvantage.

Warrior No. 130 from the Hu Se Martial Arts School was gaining momentum, forcing Warrior No. 17 to dodge and retreat repeatedly.

The moves of the 130th warrior were all continuous. If one move missed, they would try another. If the third move still missed, they would continue to attack. There was no pause, and there was no room for relaxation.

Even from the perspective of physical strength, there was no obvious decrease in the physical strength of Warrior No. 130.

He has good physical strength and will not become exhausted in a short time.

Warrior number 130 seemed to have made up his mind. He was about to end the fight while Warrior number 17 was busy avoiding his attack and his momentum was weakening, and he gave Warrior number 17 a heavy blow...
