Chapter 41: The Great War Begins


The day of the competition has come in the blink of an eye.Early in the morning, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle.A few miles outside Cangzhou City, that is, under the mountain gate of the Baquan Sect, a huge ring that can be called luxurious has been standing here.The audience seats, commentary seats, rest areas, dining areas, etc., which are matched with this ring, have long been arranged around; From a distance, this area, which was originally a plain at the foot of the mountain, is now as lively as a small village.And with thousands of guests, the order of the scene was also maintained in an orderly manner.Obviously, in order to "not fall behind", the Baquan Sect and the Murong family are all going all out to prepare for this "Fighting for the Male Cup" this time, after all, now the eyes of the whole martial arts are focused here, who wants to look stretched in comparison with the other "joint contractor"?"

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the venue of this year's 'Competitive Cup', our competition is about to open, please come to watch the game as soon as possible, please take your seat as soon as possible, and the relevant people and players of the participating parties should also be on standby in the players' rest area as soon as possible......

Ladies and gentlemen, fellow ......"

Seeing that it was about to be time, the voice of the Niu brothers suddenly sounded in this lively venue like a market, and repeated the above passage aloud.Of course, the two of them shouted there with the "horn" made by Huang Donglai, and the amplification effect was very good, and it was not too laborious.But Rao was like this, they also shouted for about ten minutes, and then with the help of other staff responsible for maintaining order at the scene, the audience was basically in place.There is no way, there are too many people coming, most of them are rough people, and it is more difficult to "drive" these people to where they should go than to drive a herd of cattle.When most of the audience was seated, gongs and drums began to beat on the side of the ring, attracting everyone's attention, and Sun Yihuan and Huang Donglai also took advantage of this time to sit on the commentary stage.When the short "opening music" stopped, Huang Donglai's voice also sounded at the right time: "Colleagues, welcome to the venue of the 'Fighting for the Cup', I am Huang Donglai, the commentator of this competition." ”"I'm Sun Yihuan."

Sun Yihuan said on the side.This set of words is familiar to the two of them, but it is still quite fresh to most of the people on the scene who have never watched the "game with commentary"."

As announced before the game, the winner of this competition will receive the right to host the next 'Young Heroes Club', as well as a prize 'Silkworm Ring' provided by us; The rules of the competition have been written down in detail and displayed on the boards in the southwest corner of the venue, you can check them at any time, if there is anything unclear after reading it, you can ask the staff next to the board......"

Here Huang Donglai specially mentioned "If you finish reading, there is anything unclear ......"

In fact, it was for the illiterate people present.This is also one of the experiences they gained from the last time they held the "Dragon Head Cup" - as far as the entire Dahui is concerned, because the regime has lasted long enough and is quite prosperous, its illiteracy rate has basically reached the lowest level that the ancient feudal dynasty can achieve, but even so, it is still quite high; Moreover......

Those heroes who are mixed with rivers and lakes or mixed with green forests belong to a high proportion of "illiterate" and "semi-literate" groups, and you can basically assume that one in two people on average has difficulty reading and writing, so you have to take this into account when you are a child."

Then before today's ring match starts......

Sun Yihuan seemed to want to end the topic of Huang Donglai as soon as possible, so he took over the conversation with a quick speech, "We still have to introduce our two co-organizers of this competition first......

The head of the Baquan Sect, and Mr.

Murong, the head of the Murong family. ”Accompanied by Sun Yihuan's words, Huo Ming and Murong Shu also appeared in the ring.These two people are both heroes and extraordinary bearings, just standing there and not speaking, which makes the noisy scene a little quieter.However, because they did not have a "microphone" like Sun Huang to assist them in speaking, and at the moment they were just letting the two financial owners who contributed money and effort "show their faces" and say hello, so both of them just hugged their fists at the audience on the stage and did not speak."

Let's once again thank the Baquan Sect and the Murong family for their strong support for this competition, then the next thing we will immediately announce is the matchup table for the 'ring part' of this competition."

Before the atmosphere became awkward, Huang Donglai pushed the process to the next step and guided the audience to pay attention to the matchup.Huo Ming and Murong Shu also took advantage of the situation when their younger brother lifted the kanban with the match table written on it, and they both left the ring."

This bracket is distributed according to the 'sect scores' obtained by each team before the game, as well as the 'answer scores' of the players, and the relevant rules can also be seen in the rules board."

The two points that Huang Donglai mentioned here are the parts they said before about "outside the competition".First of all, the "sect score" he said was evaluated by representatives of twelve high-ranking sects, such as Shaolin, Wudang, Beggars and other sects, although they did not sign up for the competition, and there were no disciples to act as "mercenaries", but such a big martial arts event, they had to send a person of high and low rank to lead the team to take a look, right?

Sun Huang just took advantage of all these guys who could be used......

Aren't you high-minded, respectable, and reputable?

Wouldn't it be right for us to invite one representative from each of the twelve sects that didn't participate in the competition to be a free "rater" for me?

When the score comes out, if we offend someone, it won't be counted on our heads.So, under the "guidance" of Sun Huang, these twelve "judges" referred to a bunch of conditions such as the manpower, financial resources, fame, and contribution to martial arts of each registered school, and scored according to their respective understandings, and finally summed up a so-called "sect score".As for the "answers" of those contestants, it is basically Huang Donglai who copied the model of Shen Youran's "literary test" for the Young Heroes Association, and added some of his own understanding, and came up with a simplified version, which is roughly to test whether the contestants are mentally handicapped and illiterate.This school score is combined with the player's answer score, and the final score is the basis for the bracket formation.Anyway, the final discharge is ......

Those sects with high initial scores can have byes in the first few rounds of the ring match, after all, people also rely on the strength of the sect in exchange for this advantage."

We'll hang this sheet on the edge of the ring later, and we'll update it when the players are eliminated, so you can see it at any time."

Huang Donglai waited for the table to be displayed on stage for a while, and then added.Subsequently, Sun Yihuan continued, "Because the number of registrations for this competition has exceeded expectations, resulting in a very dense schedule, so let's start the game without further ado." ”The staff on the stage heard Sun Yihuan's words and understood that it was time to push down the next process, so they carried the kanban and got off the stage.Immediately after that, a gong was heard.Before the sound ended, another person appeared in the ring: this person was about forty years old, although he was not tall and not amazing, but his lean posture and pace, his expression and temperament were not shocked......

Anyone can see at a glance that this is a practitioner and an old man."

Now the referee who will be in charge of this morning's game will be the first to appear."

Huang Donglai introduced, "This time, we are fortunate to have Wen Tai Wen, who is nicknamed 'Thunder Breaker', to take on this important task. ”"I hope that the players can also uphold the principle of fair competition and not hurting harmony, and don't make it difficult for Wen seniors."

Sun Yi said harmonicly.The two of them introduced in a very ordinary tone there, but the audience began to whisper and discuss, because the "referee" is also very unfamiliar to these martial arts people.Although they are not unable to understand the word "referee" and what this position is for, in most people's cognition, there is no need for such a person to supervise the competition between martial arts masters, or in other words, all the audience in the audience can be referees.But if there is, there will be, as long as this referee does not cause chaos, no one will particularly object."

Then we have to invite the two sides of the first match to the stage."

Huang Donglai quickly read according to the table of the match, "In this field, the representative of the Jinling Sword King's Mansion - 'Defeated Dragon Sword' Dugu Yong, and the representative of the Cangzhou Fuling Sect - 'White Whirlwind' are rising. ”Seeing this, some people must be wondering, why did this Sword King Mansion also participate?

And it's Dugu Yong who plays, not his father, what's even more strange why is he the first to play?

This is actually not complicated - the two of them are here, and their Sword King Mansion also meets the entry criteria, plus Dugu Yong himself is a martial arts idiot, and he likes to learn from masters, so there is no loss in signing up for a name and having fun.For Duguyong, "enjoying the process of the game" is the key, and it doesn't matter if you win or not.And what about Dugusheng's thoughts......

Because his stupid son still hasn't understood his and Lao Gao's intentions, he has even figured out the high-pressure Tian, but Duguyong hasn't understood it yet......

So it's a good thing that my son wants to stay in Cangzhou to fight in the ring; The best thing is that the son will suffer some more minor or serious injuries in the ring, and then let him go to Lao Gao's house to recuperate for a period of time after the fight, and take this opportunity to let his future daughter-in-law take care of him......

In short, this old man didn't think much about winning the game, and he himself was not interested in fighting for any silkworm ring or hosting rights, so Dugu always wanted to fight.As for why Duguyong was the first to ......

It is implied in our book that he is not illiterate and mentally retarded, he did it on purpose.Dugu Yong pondered: The reputation of our Sword King's Mansion in the martial arts is not bad, and the "sect score" is at least an upper-middle level, so if I answer well in the "answering questions" link, if I don't do well, I will be ranked directly in the "top sixteen", then even if I reach the finals, I can only play four games with a full score......

And the people I met are likely to have been consumed in the first few rounds, and I am full of energy to fight, and I can't win.Thinking about it this way, his answer direction naturally changed to "not speaking human words".So he finally got the "deduction points" treatment that was more amazing than handing in the blank paper in the answer question, and successfully came to the most corner of the matchup list......

Then you can also imagine what kind of level the opponent who can compete with him in this position is probably what.This "Fuling Sect", the name seems to be quite elegant, in fact, you can see it after a little pondering, this sect is rooted in the roots, and it used to be a tomb robber......

To put it bluntly, their founding patriarch was a tomb robber back then, but he accidentally dug up the ancient martial arts secrets when he was stealing a tomb and digging a tomb, so he changed careers.But as the saying goes, heroes don't ask where they come from, what did the ancestor of the family do before, anyway, he later changed his ways, and his sect has been passed down for so many years, and now since they can pass the registration, it means that they still have a certain strength, but not much.And this "white whirlwind" is currently the first master of Cangzhou Fuling Sect, and he is also the head of this sect.This person is not very old, he is thirty-five or sixteen years old like Dugu Yong, and he makes a pair of double hooks.This "hook" is the "hook" in the hook fork of the sword, gun, sword, halberd, axe, and axe, this kind of blade evolved from the ancient weapon, its shape resembles a sword and bends, and most of the moves are light and strange, and they are good at containment, and in terms of the nature of the weapon, it just happens to be the nemesis of the "straight sword".Guo Sheng was born with a white face, and he was like a whirlwind when he made this pair of silver-white double hooks, so he got the name of "White Whirlwind".Originally, in terms of hard power, Guo Sheng was definitely not the opponent of the defeated Dragon Sword, but considering the restraint of the weapon, this scene may not be one-sided."

Two, the rules are clear, everyone is learning skills, the one with high skills wins, don't hurt the harmony, if you have bad intentions, want to destroy people's tricks, tear down people's ancestral halls or something......

I'm not going to sit idly by. ”When the two contestants came to the stage, Wen Taicheng walked up to them and greeted them."

Understood.""

Senior, don't worry."

Dugu Yong and Guo Sheng also responded politely."

Please.""

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Please."

Then the two walked to the center of the stage, separated the two ends, and set up a posture.Wen Taicheng also retreated to a suitable distance, and after a short pause, shouted, "Begin!"

”The cheers fell, and the figure moved.The first to strike a problem is the one who rises.Guo Sheng knows very well that his martial arts are not as good as Dugu Yong, so he fights steadily, he basically has no chance, and if he wants to win, he must take advantage of the opponent's unstable foothold and not understand his own path, and win quickly and surprisingly.And he is indeed worthy of the name of this "white whirlwind", I saw him approaching Dugu Yong like a bright silver white light, and with a roll of double hooks in his hand, he launched a very tricky attack from both sides of the opponent's torso.If these two blows are solid, Duguyong's ribs and shoulders are afraid that a piece of meat will be taken away.And at this moment, Dugu Yong thought in his heart: "Did I do a little too much when answering ......the question?"
