A thousand enlightenments in one night, starting from being a menial apprentice.

Chapter 274 A gust of wind rises

Qiu Tong stood there with a knife in hand and pursed lips. He glanced at the remains of Fan Baolong at his feet. He knew very well that if he was not careful, he might suffer the same fate.

In order to enter Taiyi Gate, many people are willing to pay an unimaginable price. So what does killing a person matter?

Xiao Yu has drawn his sword and is rushing over!

She was wearing the clothes she usually wore when escorting, with a corset and leg wraps, looking neat and clean!

Xiao Yu used the Cloud Snake Step and the Five Tigers and Sheep Knife together, tapping his toes quickly on the plum blossom pile. His figure flashed, and the knife lights flew, attacking Qiu Tong from all sides!
Qiu Tong's eyes were focused, he defended the gate with a knife, he held on with difficulty, and refused to retreat!
Both of them used the quick knife style, but Qiu Tong was obviously not as good as Xiao Yu. He could only barely defend himself. Moreover, under the siege of Xiao Yu's sharp and flashing knife shadows, Qiu Tong's knife moves were already a bit stiff and messy.

Xiao Yu became more and more fierce, and soon, when Qiu Tong's sword moves were in a mess, he used the blade of his Qingling Sword to slam on the back of Qiu Tong's sword from the side, and then he leaped forward, and the sword shadow slashed towards Qiu Tong's right shoulder!
Qiu Tong was shocked and turned his knife to protect himself, but before he could see it, Xiao Yu's knife shadow had already touched his shoulder!
Qiu Tong's eyes were fierce, he flipped up the sleeve of his left hand, and several darts shot out like stars!
A sudden flash of cold light!

Qiu Tong's hidden weapon skills are surprisingly not weak!

This is also Qiu Tong's inner support for fighting this life-and-death battle!

His plan was to find the right opportunity, strike suddenly, use hidden weapons to defeat Xiao Yu, and then fight Luo Zhoucheng!

However, he didn't expect that Xiao Yu was so fierce. Before he found the opportunity to use the hidden weapon, Xiao Yu had already spotted the chance and was about to cut off his shoulder with one knife!

Qiu Tong was forced to use his hidden weapon in a lose-lose situation!
The moment Qiu Tong's sleeves flashed with cold light, Xiao Yu was shocked. Her knife was about to succeed, but Qiu Tong shot out at this time, obviously to force her to retreat!

Xiao Yu's eyes were cold, and he twisted his right wrist. The Qingling Knife instantly made a knife flower, cutting off a large piece of flesh on Qiu Tong's shoulder. As blood splattered, the Qingling Knife turned back with a knife flower, and with a series of chaotic crisp sounds, it knocked away a piece of cold light that was shooting over!
At the critical moment, Xiao Yu swung her knife and cut off a piece of flesh on Qiu Tong's shoulder. But if she didn't swung her knife, with the original force of the knife, it would not be just a piece of flesh, but half of Qiu Tong's shoulder would be cut off!

But in that case, Xiao Yu would also be injured by the darts! A cold light, several darts, scattered towards her chest and waist, many places are fatal!

In order to achieve this attack, Qiu Tong has been practicing hidden weapons for four or five years!
Only his father Qiu Yan knew the hard work he put into his hidden weapon techniques!
Never show up in front of others, just to make achievements on the selection stage!
Qiu Tong's hard work was not in vain. Although Xiao Yu's sharp and dazzling knife flower knocked away a number of darts, there was still one dart that brushed past the knife shadow and pierced her left calf!

Xiao Yu felt pain in his calf and frowned, looking at Qiu Tong not far in front of him, whose right shoulder was covered in blood and sweat!
Xiao Yu's eyes were fierce. Regardless of the injury on his calf, he forced himself to move and attacked Qiu Tong with a knife!
Qiu Tong's right shoulder was seriously injured and his muscles were completely powerless. He tried to lift the knife forcefully, but as soon as it made contact, the blade flew backwards!
Then, Qiu Tong saw a cold knife shadow, like a ghost, whistling towards his chest with a horizontal slashing force under the brilliant afterglow of the setting sun!

Qiu Tong thought he was going to die!

"Miss Xiao, please show mercy!" Qiu Yan, the owner of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, suddenly stood up and shouted from the audience seats.

Seeing the blade approaching, Xiao Yu suddenly twisted his wrist, and the blade of the Qingling Knife hit Qiu Tong's chest, knocking Qiu Tong flying to the ground with blood spurting from his mouth!

Qiu Yan jumped up from the viewing seat like a green onion pulled out of dry land, and caught Qiu Tong who was flying backwards from the selection stage.

Qiu Yan carried Qiu Tong to the ground. Qiu Tong was already unconscious, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. But after a quick inspection, Qiu Yan knew that Qiu Tong was fine. Although his chest ribs were fractured and his organs were slightly damaged, he would recover as long as he rested for a period of time.

Under the stage for selecting talents, Qiu Yan clasped his fists towards Xiao Yu and said, "Thank you, Miss Xiao, for sparing my son's life!"

Qiu Yan was definitely not pretending when he said this!
Qiu Tong shot Xiao Yu with a hidden weapon. Firstly, he had the intention to kill him. Secondly, Xiao Yu was injured and would have to face Luo Zhoucheng in a life-and-death battle. Xiao Yu's own life was also in danger!

In this situation, she didn't kill Qiu Tong, but just knocked him out. She was really showing mercy!

Xiao Yu glared at Qiu Yan and said coldly, "Get lost!"

As she spoke, she had already pulled out the dart from her calf, and immediately a bloody hole appeared on the white and tender calf, oozing blood!
Although Qiu Yan looked unhappy, he remained silent. He picked up the unconscious Qiu Tong, left the county office and went to the clinic.

Xiao Yu tore off a piece of cloth from her leg and bandaged the wound on her calf simply. Just as she finished bandaging it and before she could stand up, Luo Zhoucheng jumped up with a machete in his hand!

Luo Zhoucheng naturally did not give Xiao Yu time to treat his wounds. He jumped onto the plum blossom pile and immediately attacked Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu took a deep breath, clenched the knife, and rushed forward!
Luo Zhoucheng used a ghost-head knife!

The sword has a heavy body and a wide back, so the handle has intricate patterns to prevent it from slipping out of your hand!
The handle of the knife is round and thick, with intricate patterns. At first glance it looks like a ghost's head, hence the name.

The two of them started fighting instantly. Luo Zhoucheng knew that Xiao Yu was injured in his left calf, so he kept attacking Xiao Yu's left side!

After Xiao Yu's calf injury, her body shape was greatly affected. Luo Zhoucheng was quite powerful. Even if she pressed the wound and burst out instantly, it would be difficult for her to defeat Luo Zhoucheng, and it would also consume a lot of her own internal energy.

The fight between the two became more and more intense!
Of course Xiao Yu was injured and her body was hindered, and Luo Zhoucheng also did not want to advance rashly. He felt that since Xiao Yu was injured, he could slowly wear her down!

Xiao Yu quickly realized Luo Zhoucheng's thoughts, and then adopted a firm defensive tactic!
Since her calf was injured, she stood somewhere in the middle of the plum blossom pile and did not move!
The calf was pierced by a dart, and every time the internal energy of the leg was infused, the wound would bleed!

Xiao Yu stood there, and when Luo Zhoucheng attacked, she responded with a sword. If Luo Zhoucheng retreated, she would never pursue him!
But even so, Xiao Yu's strength was stronger than Luo Zhoucheng after all. Every time he attacked, he was in danger. If Xiao Yu hadn't been inconvenient, he would have been defeated long ago!

Xiao Yu slashed at Luo Zhoucheng's throat with a knife, his eyes were cold and the knife gleamed like fire!
At this time, it was already dusk and blazing torches were burning all around Zeyingtai!

Luo Zhoucheng retreated with his sword and retreated violently, finally putting some distance between himself and Xiao Yu!
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Xiao Yu's knife just now was so fast that he even felt a little chill on the skin on his throat!
Luo Zhoucheng looked at Xiao Yu not far away with vigilance. Xiao Yu stood there motionless, like a reef on the seashore.

His attacks came in wave after wave, but the reef never moved!
Luo Zhoucheng's mouth was filled with bitterness. His internal energy was no longer as strong as it was at the beginning, and the power of his sword had also weakened, but Xiao Yu's sword shadow was still as fast as a ghost...

Luo Zhuxing was very suspicious. If this continued, who would fall first?

A layer of fine beads of sweat also appeared on Xiao Yu's forehead. In fact, her condition was worse than Luo Zhoucheng's. Her internal energy was almost exhausted.

Once her internal energy is exhausted, that will be the time of her defeat!
Xiao Yu realized that she had to give it a try, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope!
Otherwise, if Luo Zhoucheng attacks her three more times at most, she will definitely die under Luo Zhoucheng's sword!
Luo Zhoucheng took a few breaths and his energy recovered a little. He looked at Xiao Yu and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit again!

He knew that Xiao Yu had fought two rounds in a row. If he didn't feel well, Xiao Yu wouldn't feel well either! Luo Zhoucheng's eyes condensed, and he swung his sword at Xiao Yu again!
The two men started fighting in an instant, and Xiao Yu's sword shadow was still extremely sharp, flashing like lightning!
Luo Zhoucheng retreated again, but this time Xiao Yu suddenly leaped up and chased after him. The shadow of his sword was like a ghost, flashing one after another, and each time it attacked Luo Zhoucheng's vital points!

Luo Zhoucheng was shocked!
He didn't expect Xiao Yu to suddenly change his tactics! He attacked suddenly, and every strike was fatal!

Luo Zhoucheng was in a life-or-death situation, and his potential was instantly unleashed. He quickly took Xiao Yu's sword moves while retreating violently. After a thrilling moment, he finally distanced himself from Xiao Yu again!
Xiao Yu's body trembled and she almost fell off the plum blossom pile. Because of the forced outburst just now, the blood flowing from her calf wound had dyed her shoes and socks red.

But this is not the most fatal thing. The most fatal thing is that her internal energy has been completely exhausted!

With that last blow, she almost cut Luo Zhoucheng's throat, but at that moment, her internal energy ran out, and the force of the knife slowed down, giving Luo Zhoucheng a narrow escape!

Luo Zhoucheng's face was covered in sweat. He touched his neck with fear in his eyes. There was a thin line of blood there! If it was a little deeper, he would be dead!

The internal energy in his Dantian was almost exhausted. He looked at Xiao Yu, with many thoughts running through his mind!

Duan Rong stood under the stage for selecting talents, and his spiritual consciousness suddenly burst out, penetrating the bodies of Xiao Yu and Luo Zhoucheng!
Xiao Yu has lost all his internal energy, but Luo Zhoucheng still has a little fighting power!
The winner has now been decided, but Xiao Yu is still holding on, causing Luo Zhoucheng, whose internal energy is also almost exhausted, to lose his balance!

However, Duan Rong was certain that Luo Zhoucheng would attack again, draining all his internal energy and making a decisive blow!

The temptation of being a registered disciple of the sect is too great, no one would be willing to give up!
As long as Luo Zhoucheng strikes with that final blow, Xiao Yu will definitely die!
Luo Zhoucheng's breathing gradually stabilized. He looked at Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's face was pale. Although there was no trace of panic in his eyes, Luo Zhoucheng knew that Xiao Yu was also approaching his limit!
If it wasn't for the last blow, Xiao Yu's knife force suddenly slowed down, and he would not have been able to dodge it!

and many more!

The last knife?

Luo Zhoucheng suddenly looked at Xiao Yu, and he suddenly realized that Xiao Yu's outburst just now had drained her. She was just standing there and pretending!

Yes! He was sure of it!
Luo Zhoucheng clenched the hilt of the knife in his hand!
Although he was almost reaching his limit, there was still a trace of internal energy in his dantian. He wanted to use this last bit of internal energy to kill Xiao Yu!
The beauty is about to die!

When Luo Zhoucheng was about to attack, a strong wind suddenly blew up!
The strong wind made the torches crackle!
Duan Rong knew that Xiao Yu was in danger, and the last bit of internal energy in Luo Zhoucheng's Dantian had begun to circulate!
Just then, a strong wind suddenly blew up!
Duan Rong's eyes suddenly lit up. He couldn't bear to watch Xiao Yu die tragically in front of him!
Duan Rong suddenly walked to Shen Mizhi's side and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Miss Shen, for breaking through to the Great Accomplishment Realm!"

Just as Duan Rong was speaking, he lifted his sleeves and a pinch of medicine powder scattered into the wind, blowing gently on Luo Zhoucheng's face!
Shen Mizhi was slightly stunned, wondering why Duan Rong suddenly came over and talked to her.

It had been more than a year since she had that unpleasant experience with Duan Rong, and she had let it go.

Duan Rong, a mere boy from a poor family, was able to achieve the great accomplishment realm and become a registered disciple of the sect, which made her look at him with admiration.

What's more, because she tortured and killed Fan Baolong, no one has spoken to her since she came over. After Xia Shuangshuang handed her the handkerchief, she also stayed away.

At this time, Duan Rong came over to talk to her, which made her feel slightly warm in her heart.

Shen Mizhi said: "Through the trials of life and death, there are occasional gains!"

Duan Rong smiled and said, "That's also because of Miss Shen. She has accumulated so much knowledge in her daily life, and only by chance can she make a breakthrough in one fell swoop!"

Shen Mizhi smiled and said, "My breakthrough is not a big deal, but you, Painter Duan. A year ago, in front of your painting stall, if I saw you correctly, you hadn't even achieved the second level of the Inner Breath Realm! In just one year, you have even broken through several realms. It's really unbelievable!"

Duan Rong said: "As a poor family, the only way out is to cultivate asceticism. I am just risking my life to cultivate asceticism!"

Duan Rong's words were not meant to evade Shen Mizhi. Practicing hard for nine hours a day was almost like self-abuse!

Shen Mizhi's expression changed slightly when she heard this! To cultivate with your life?

Ximen Kankan was standing next to Xia Shuangshuang. Suddenly he saw Duan Rong going over to talk to Shen Mizhi. There was a gleam of curiosity in his eyes. He didn't think Duan Rong was interested in Shen Mizhi.

As for that crazy woman, who in their right mind would like her?
On the Selecting Stage, a strong wind blew past and stopped. Luo Zhoucheng was about to swing his saber to attack, but he suddenly felt his eyes go dark. The next moment, he tilted and fell under the plum blossom pile. The ghost-head saber slipped out of his hand and stabbed into the ground with a "puff", with the blade halfway submerged!
"Zhou Cheng!"

Luo Zhoucheng's father, Luo Yuxi, the owner of a fur shop, suddenly jumped over from the viewing seats, stood on the plum blossom pile, rushed to the place where Luo Zhoucheng fell, jumped down, and hugged Luo Zhoucheng in his arms.

Luo Yuxi tried Luo Zhoucheng's breathing and found that his breathing was steady and there was nothing serious, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone watching the fight thought that Luo Zhoucheng was unconscious due to exhaustion, and Luo Yuxi was no exception, because Luo Zhoucheng's current symptoms were those of exhaustion and coma. Even if you found the best doctor, no one could tell that he had been drugged.

Shen Ping's drug is not only colorless and tasteless, but also dissolves into thin air once it enters the human body...

But at this moment, in the audience, Ah Mo's nose suddenly twitched, and she murmured, "Miss, it seems to smell like medicine powder!"

Lu Qingzhu's eyes moved. A-mo's sense of smell was far different from that of ordinary people. He must not be wrong!
Medicinal powder?

Lu Qingzhu looked at the place where Luo Zhoucheng fell on the plum blossom pile, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Just now she noticed that Duan Rong walked from Ximen Kankan's right to Shen Mizhi's left, and Shen Mizhi was already some distance away from them!
Duan Rong was standing next to Shen Mizhi, just upwind of where Luo Zhoucheng fell from the plum blossom pile when the wind started to blow!
"Miss..." A Mo wanted to speak.

Lu Qingzhu's eyes narrowed and he said, "Don't talk."

Amo stopped talking immediately.

Lu Qingzhu's eyes swept across the beautiful face of Xiao Yu, and he thought to himself: If I touch it, Fang really sprinkled the powder, just for this beautiful young lady, right?
