Chapter 60 A True Gentleman?
"Teach me swordsmanship?"

Fu Qingzhou was a little confused: "Excuse me, Young Alliance Leader, have we met before? What is our relationship?"

"Haha, of course not."

Hua Wuying smiled and said, "I know this may be a bit abrupt, please allow me to explain..."

He took two steps forward and explained carefully and patiently, "Although you have reached the fourth level of martial arts skills, it can be seen that your foundation is still shallow. Although you occasionally have strange moves, they are not varied and are easy to break."

"In this way, there will be an endless stream of people challenging you. With your limited strength, it may be difficult to deal with them. It is only a few hundred miles to Langhuan Mountain, and it will take a few days to arrive. Those who fight first can enter the camp earlier than those who fight later, and they have more advantages..."

"Although it is not easy to kill Long Dabei, everyone has a lucky mentality. What is worrying is not the lack of resources, but the inequality. Why can others go but we can't? Once more people think like this, you, a key figure, will naturally become the target of public criticism."

At this point, he smiled sheepishly and said, "In fact, we arrived this afternoon. My fellow apprentices also wanted to challenge you, but I saw that you were exhausted, so I stopped them. They were quite dissatisfied."

Fu Qingzhou finally understood: "So, you want to teach me something and make me stronger, so that most people can't beat me and will give up?"

"Exactly."

Hua Wuying clasped his fists earnestly: "Although your foundation is still shallow, I can see that you have outstanding talent. You have made a lot of progress from the sparring in just one day. I believe that after learning my swordsmanship, you will be able to defeat most people of the same realm."

"Why do you want to do this?" Fu Qingzhou was very curious: "If you reduce the number of competitors, will you be able to get closer to Long Dabei?"

"No."

Hua Wuying smiled and said, "I don't think I can get Long Dabei's head. I was just passing through Shu this time to recruit new friends for the Wulin Alliance. When I passed by Shudu, I saw that stunning sword and decided to follow and take a look."

Fu Qingzhou listened and stared: "Are you not going to attack Long Dabei?"

"I don't have such intention." Hua Wuying scratched his head embarrassedly: "Master often admonishes me and teaches me not to always do things beyond my ability. Therefore, I have no intention of competing for the so-called rare treasure, nor do I intend to make a name for myself by killing people."

At this point, he gave a bitter smile: "It's just that the escort car convoy is moving very slowly now. More and more people are coming here because they heard that Xiaolong Dabei is here. I'm sure a war will break out soon..."

"This is what I don't want to see."

Fu Qingzhou exclaimed.

He asked slowly, "So, you want me to use this threshold to suppress their enthusiasm? Then what?"

"Soon, I'm sure a large number of Mingjian Pavilion's secret envoys will arrive." Hua Wuying smiled and said, "Everything will be resolved by then."

It turned out to be the case.

Fu Qingzhou understood.

This guy has only one purpose in mind for all this time - he doesn't want to see anyone fighting.

"Then why did you take such a big detour?" He asked curiously, "You are a well-known young leader, so why not raise your arms and appease the people?"

"Haha, of course not."

Hua Wuying laughed again: "Brother, do you think I want to reduce the number of competitors? Wouldn't other people think the same? Instead of being so passive, it is better to find a key point to start with. Do you think so?"

Fu Qingzhou nodded: "I am the key point."

"Yes, what you did today was very interesting."

Hua Wuying said: "You have pulled the possible conflict onto yourself and solved many hidden dangers. I just want to add fuel to the fire for you."

Fu Qingzhou looked into the other person's eyes, feeling both curious and emotional.

He was not sure whether what the young leader said was all true, but if it was, this big brother was somewhat similar to himself.

He had met many people since leaving Bailu Mountain, but none of them would feel pain and happiness at the expense of others like himself... Well, Long Dabei didn't count. This guy, for now, was one.

At least he did realize that his purpose of jumping out on his own initiative was not only to exchange ideas, but also to bring the conflict to himself.

Otherwise, if so many people started fighting, it would be fine if the gangsters vying for fame and fortune would beat each other up, but it would be troublesome if other passers-by on the official road were killed or injured.

Fu Qingzhou had a vague feeling that he had met a close friend... but he was not in a hurry and would wait and see.

"As for learning sword, there is no need."

He smiled and said, "Since I have decided to use the bow and arrow, I will use the bow and arrow. I have no intention of changing weapons."

Hua Wuying also smiled: "Your Excellency has been defeated repeatedly today because the bow and arrow are not convenient for close combat, but you still stubbornly refuse to change your weapon. How can I not understand the meaning? But sword skills... can also be used."

Fu Qingzhou was startled at first, then raised his eyebrows: "You mean, after I learn sword, I can use it with bows and arrows?"

"Yes."

Hua Wuying said as he made a gesture of invitation: "If you don't mind, please come and have a look first."

If someone is eager to teach you, how can you refuse?

Fu Qingzhou didn't refuse, nodded, and followed him.

The two walked a few more steps and came to a relatively open area next to the camp.

Hua Wuying drew out the iron sword on his back and smiled at him: "Watch carefully, this sword technique is called Liufeng, and it has three moves. This is the first move... Yingfeng Huilang!"

Under the moonlight, the shadow of the sword swayed through the fallen leaves and flashed past Fu Qingzhou's eyes.

This is a set of sword moves that requires great attention to body movements, and it is also a set of sword moves that emphasizes defense over offense.

Hua Wuying's steps were agile and his figure was as graceful as a wild goose. After he performed a set of sword moves, his feet moved far more than his hands.

Fu Qingzhou's eyes moved slightly.

This is indeed a set of "sword techniques" that can be used in archery!
The core of this sword technique lies in the footwork, using defense as offense and retreat as advance, and looking for a moment of opportunity to counterattack while moving. It is suitable for those who cannot use longbows to block and resolve attacks well.

Not long ago, it was this sword move that easily broke Hua Xiaolan's secret trick of hiding the insect in the poisonous smoke.

"The second move, catching shadows!"

On the other side, Hua Wuying shouted and began to demonstrate the second move.

The sword technique changed and the steps became more complicated, but the speed of the iron sword in his hand slowed down, becoming more in line with his repeatedly turning body.

This style of swordsmanship is more defensive than the previous one, but it is also more ferocious when counterattacking.

It pays more attention to taking advantage of the situation and leveraging resources, so the difficulty will naturally be higher.

For Fu Qingzhou, it is indeed difficult to use the bow and arrow to gain leverage, but this trick can be applied to fists and feet. After using body skills to resolve the enemy's offensive, he first uses fists and legs to break the enemy's weaknesses, and then ends the battle with a short-range attack with a bow and arrow.

After the second move was completed, Hua Wuying put the sword back into the box and smiled embarrassedly: "The third move 'The Wind Rises' needs to be demonstrated with a heavy sword, but this move needs to be supplemented by Zhen Yuan. I haven't broken through the sixth realm yet, so I haven't mastered this move. Sorry."

Fu Qingzhou immediately clasped his fists and said, "No, no, Brother Hua is so generous in teaching me the sword. I have benefited a lot from it. I am very grateful!"

"hehe."

Hua Wuying blinked and said, "In that case, I look forward to your performance in tomorrow's competition."
