Chapter 521: Semi-finals
The entire Xiangping City is several times more prosperous than in the past, and the streets are full of people. Mobile //m.. From the wedding of LA Shangji to the present, Xiangping has developed at a speed that can be checked by the naked eye!
The number of players and aborigines applying for naturalization in Xiangping has increased exponentially. In the past few days, the tax revenue has increased explosively, and some of the funds spent on the wedding have flowed back.
The number of people watching the world's No. 1 martial arts tournament is increasing day by day, and Shang Ji has been unable to resist the enthusiasm of the audience even after making all kinds of restrictions. Although Shang Ji didn't do things like collecting tickets in circles, a good viewing position had already been sold at a sky-high price.
The Shang had to send more troops to maintain order and avoid riots.
On the huge square in front of the City Lord's Mansion, two small and one large and three brand-new rings stood in the center of the square. In view of the dilemma that the ring could not withstand the ravages of the participating generals and was beaten to tatters, Shang Ji directly bleed the capital, and urgently made three new rings with cold iron stone as the main raw material.
Today, on top of the three rings, there will be a competition to see who is the number one military general in the world!
"Four strong men, please come forward and draw lots!" The little official in charge of drawing lots smiled all over his face, and said cautiously to Huang Zhong and the others.
The four of them glanced at each other, Huang Zhong smiled slightly, and said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong first, please!" ”
Zhao Yun did not shirk, and stepped forward to draw a lottery from the box. Then without looking at it, he directly handed the drawn sign to another clerk next to him.
The little official respectfully took the sign, and carefully checked it with the other two officials to confirm that it was correct. He solemnly took out a wooden board engraved with the names of the four people, and wrote a big "B" under Zhao Yun's name.
After that, the three of them drew lots, Huang Zhong's was "Ding", Xiahoudun's was "C", and the vulture bone was "A".
As soon as the results of the draw came out, they were announced to the outside world, and according to the new rules of the battle, it was immediately clear who the opponents were.
Xiahoudun - Huang Zhong; Zhao Yun - vulture bone!
Xiahoudun stared at the wooden board showing the results, and there was a look of disappointment in his eyes.
According to his self-estimate, he was at the bottom of the semi-finals, and if it wasn't even lucky, he wouldn't have qualified for the semi-finals at all.
However, at their level, they will naturally not be defeated without a fight, even if they know that they are invincible, they must move forward bravely, which is Xiahoudun's consistent character.
If there is one opponent among the three that he least wants to face, it is Huang Zhong!
This is also the common wish of most of the top generals, as strong as Zhao Yun and others, Xiahoudun knows that he is invincible, but he can also roughly estimate the gap between the two.
Xiahoudun is confident that it will be no problem to survive two hundred moves in Zhao Yun's hands!
However, Huang Zhong is unpredictable. In Huang Zhong's previous battles, whether the opponent was an ordinary super-first-class military general or a top-level historical general, Huang Zhong was in a comfortable posture, and he couldn't see his depth at all.
What's even more exaggerated is that yesterday Huang Zhong fought against Guan Yu, and in the end, Guan Yu was defeated in one move and surrendered directly to admit defeat. Although everyone clearly knew that the previous confrontation between the two was also part of the confrontation, the result was really amazing, and Huang Zhong's momentum soared for a while, becoming the favorite to win the championship!
And according to the history of Yiren, Huang Zhong even beheaded his brother Xiahou Yuan when he was seventy years old. This invisibly intensified Xiahoudun's psychological pressure.
He would rather fight against the invulnerable vultures with their brute strength than provoke Huang Zhong.
However, the opponent of the match was decided by drawing lots, and once it was confirmed that no changes could be made, Xiahoudun could only go to the ring and wait for the battle with Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong stepped forward slowly, compared with the highly nervous Xiahou Dun, Huang Zhong had a calm look, and he didn't even have the murderous and sharp aura that a top military general should have, if he changed into a pair of coarse linen clothes, no one would doubt that he was the most ordinary farmer.
The friendly Chao Xiahou smiled, and Huang Zhong said softly: "Please also ask General Xiahou's subordinates to be merciful!" ”
"Don't dare, the prestige of General Huang, don't dare to keep your hands down!"
"Are the two generals ready?" The person in charge of being the host of the ring was replaced by Guo Biao. In a peak duel at this level, the aftermath of the battle can kill ordinary generals, and ordinary officials naturally can't serve as hosts anymore.
Seeing that both of them nodded, Guo Biao shouted: "The game begins!" ”
"Whoosh!"
Before Guo Biao's words fell, Xiahoudun rushed towards Huang Zhong like a sharp arrow.
Yesterday's battle between Huang Zhong and Guan Yu was repeatedly studied by top masters from all walks of life, although they didn't know the specific situation, they still saw two clues.
Through the previous achievements and the description of the aliens, it can be found that Guan Yu is the best at using power. By accumulating momentum to oppress others, he bursts out with a thunderous blow, and in many cases, he can even directly kill opponents with similar or small combat strength.
In yesterday's battle, Guan Yu definitely wanted to repeat his old tricks, but he underestimated Huang Zhong, but he didn't expect that Huang Zhong was also an expert in using power, and he was even two points more skilled than Guan Yu.
The fight failed, and Guan Yu, who was counterattacked, had to make a hasty move, but was killed by Huang Zhong in one move. I personally felt the aggrieved feelings of his opponents.
With the lessons of the past, of course Xiahoudun did not dare to be careless, and attacked fiercely at the beginning to avoid Huang Zhong's momentum.
Although there is little hope of winning, Xiahoudun will not give up!
"Dang!"
A crisp sound spread throughout the battlefield, as if a signal, and the atmosphere of the scene burst out. The cheers and shouts resounded throughout Xiangping City.
"Dingding......
A series of rapid, dense weapon strikes reached everyone's ears, and at the same time, tongues of fire burst out between the blades of the two men, adding a bit of dazzling color to the battle.
Xiahou Dun's eyes were red, his face was a little abnormally flushed, and the greedy wolf knife in his hand danced a dense knife shadow, directly covering Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong only had the power to parry!
"Alas, General Yuan Rang is defeated!"
After looking at it for a while, Xu Chu suddenly sighed angrily.
Cao Cao's face was calm, and he was speechless with Xiahou Yuan. There are more than 20 top generals present, even if the princes themselves have limited eyesight, are all the top generals not able to put things on display?
Everyone can see that Xiahoudun is now attacking wildly with a breath in his chest, although it seems to have an advantage, but in fact, he is at the end of the crossbow, and he can't defeat Huang Zhong before this qi is exhausted, then he can announce it.
However, Huang Zhong seemed to be overwhelmed with only the power to parry at this time, but the real masters could see that he was at ease, and Xiahoudun's plan obviously failed.
Sure enough, after another quarter of an hour, Xiahoudun, who was in the midst of a wild attack, suddenly jumped back a few feet and shouted: "General Huang is brave, I am willing to bow down!" ”
After speaking, his face turned gray and white at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his body shook three times, obviously showing symptoms of detachment.
Huang Zhong, who was about to fight back, smiled dumbly and arched his hand: "Accept!" ”
This Xiahou Xuan's abacus played very well, and he performed in front of the world, and he was naturally happy to be able to defeat Huang Zhong by luck, and if he couldn't, he would admit defeat decisively before he tried his best, and he would not give Huang Zhong a chance to counterattack at all.
Although this is a little trick, it is much more decent than Guan Yu's defeat with one blow.
"Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng, the captain of Yusheng under the command of Pingzhou Animal Husbandry and Merchants, have won!"
Seeing Xiahoudun admit defeat, Guo Biao immediately shouted and informed everyone of the results of the duel.
The crowd immediately erupted in earth-shattering cheers, cheering for Huang Zhong.
At the other end, Zhao Yun's battle with the vulture bone also entered a white-hot stage.
To everyone's surprise, Zhao Yun and the vulture bones fought directly and hard, instead of relying on superb martial arts and strong true yuan to win, as Lu Bu said.
The gentian gun is like a toy in the comparison of the thousand-year-old cold iron stick in the hands of the vulture bone, but it is such an inconspicuous toy, an ironwood giant stick that is hard to resist the vulture bone, and it does not fall behind at all!
"Shhh...... This Zhao Zilong is so strong? ”
On the viewing platform, Yuan Shu couldn't help but exclaim. The power of the vulture bone is seen in the world, and everyone can accept it if a fierce person like Dian Wei Zhang Fei has a hard time with it, but Zhao Yun, a military general who seems to be two points emaciated, and the vulture bone are-for-tat in terms of strength, and everyone is a little unacceptable!
"Brother Highway has lost his eyes, Zhao Yun is still martial arts, I can't imagine that it has only been half a year since I parted, and Zilong's martial arts have improved again, which is really worthy of the name of the gun god!"
As an authoritative expert in martial arts, Lu Bu immediately attracted everyone's attention as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Oh? What do you mean by that? Please also ask Brother Lu to solve our doubts! ”
"The distance is too far, and you have some eyesight to see clearly in it. Although General Zilong is fighting hard with the vulture bone with every blow, in fact, it is Zilong who uses extremely clever power skills to make the blade vibrate at high speed, and the brute force of the vulture bone is unloaded layer by layer, and only a very small part of it is really borne by Zilong! With such clever skills, I thought I was in control alone, but who knew that there was still Zilong, and sure enough, I am not alone! ”
After Lu Bu finished speaking, he laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all, not caring at all about the somewhat gloomy faces of the princes.
However, Gongsun Zhan asked with great interest: "As General Lu has seen, is it enough for General Zilong to fight like this?" ”
"Hahaha, I said a long time ago, that barbarian is not Zilong's opponent. In less than a quarter of an hour, the barbarians will surely be defeated! ”
As if to verify what Lu Bu said, the vulture bones in the ring raised their sticks again and smashed them, and Zhao Yun waved his gun to meet him without fear.
The gentian gun was accurately pointed on the giant stick, and the vulture bone only felt that the palm of his hand was slightly paralyzed, and the internal organs suddenly felt a feeling of soreness and numbness, and the hands and feet immediately became sore.
"Boom..."There was a loud bang, and the thousand-year-old ironwood fell on the ring, smashing out a little stone chips.
Immediately afterwards, the huge body of the vulture bone pushed the golden mountain to the ground like a jade pillar, and he couldn't even move his little finger!
"Admit defeat, we admit defeat!"
The Yanhuang Blade on the stands suddenly became anxious and shouted loudly.
"General Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the captain of Zhenwei under the command of Pingzhou Animal Husbandry and Merchant Gong, won!"
As the Yanhuang Blade conceded defeat on behalf of the vulture, Su Huan immediately announced loudly.
Yan Huang Blade ignored the cheers in the sky, and together with several Yan Huang representatives, he rushed to the ring to check the situation of the vultures.
"Don't worry, it's just a slight damage to the internal organs, go back to recuperate, take some tonic medicine, and with the physique of the vulture general, you can heal in less than three days!"
Zhao Yun said to Yan Huang Sharp Blade and a few people with a gentle face.
"Thank you General Zhao for your mercy!"
Knowing that there was no major problem with the vulture bone, Yan Huang Sharp Blade breathed a sigh of relief and got up to thank Zhao Yun.
