Chapter 169 Xie Xiaojiu's Defeat In the arena. Lin Qingyi's voice finished echoing in Jiang Ning's ears, and he immediately turned his head to look at the stage. Then I saw Lin Qingyi sitting in a corner of the stands, shrouded in shadow. When Lin Qingyi saw Jiang Ning's gaze at her, a hint of guilt suddenly appeared in her eyes. "Sorry!!" Her voice rang in Jiang Ning's ears again. All of this happened in an instant. Subsequently. Jiang Ning smiled at Lin Qingyi, then turned to look at the woman in black holding a sword on the stage, Xie Xiaojiu. "I heard that you are good at swordsmanship?" Jiang Ning said.
"Not bad!" Xie Xiaojiu nodded slightly. "Okay! It seems you want to compete with me in the use of weapons!" Jiang Ning said while nodding. Then he turned to the man presiding over the meeting and said, "Sir, I need a knife!" "No problem!" said the man who was conducting the test. He then grabbed a knife from the weapon rack on the nearby ring and threw it towards Jiang Ning. "Here you go! Show your skill!" "Thank you!" Jiang Ning took the knife and thanked him. Once the long sword is in hand, the characteristics of man and sword becoming one instantly take effect. The long sword in his hand seemed to have turned into an extension of his arm, commanding him like an arm. Jiang Ning also knew the weight of this long sword, which weighed eighty-five pounds and was three feet and seven inches long. "Do you know why I want to go up to the ring?" Xie Xiaojiu suddenly said. "Does this require a reason?" Jiang Ning asked. "Of course I need it!" Xie Xiaojiu clenched the long sword in his hand and continued, "Sister Qingyi has been mentioning you in front of me for a while, saying that my talent is not as good as yours! I don't accept it!" "So!" Xie Xiaojiu emphasized his tone and slowly drew out the long sword in his hand: "So. I want to prove to Sister Qingyi that her vision is no worse than Shen Congyun! I, Xie Xiaojiu, am no worse than you, Jiang Ning!!" "I see!" Jiang Ning nodded, and then said: "If you lose, how about joining me?" "Okay!" Xie Xiaojiu responded, "If I lose, I'll listen to you!" Xie Xiaojiu immediately agreed to Jiang Ning's suggestion without any hesitation. Jiang Ning was slightly surprised when he saw this. Then he smiled and said, "Come on!" Jiang Ning felt a little happy at this time.
There is no doubt that Xie Xiaojiu's strength is above the eighth level. As a prodigy favored by Lin Qingyi, she must have both talent and strength. After today, whether I want to take the position of team leader or deputy commander, I will need someone available. This Xie Xiaojiu is obviously a relatively available talent. After all, she has a connection with Lin Qingyi, and her relationship with Lin Qingyi seems to be okay. In addition, Xie Xiaojiu is very good-looking, with fair skin, beautiful looks and a tall figure. Such a subordinate is pleasing to the eye even as a vase. After all, everyone loves beauty, not to mention that she is one of the few martial arts geniuses in Luoshui County. At this time, Xie Xiaojiu gently swung the sword. hum- The sword trembled and a faint sound was heard. "Are you ready?" Xie Xiaojiu asked. "Come on!" Jiang Ning swung the long sword lightly. whoosh- The sound of a blade cutting through the air suddenly rang out. In an instant. Xie Xiaojiu pointed his toes and instantly turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Jiang Ning. What a great speed! Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed. As soon as Xie Xiaojiu moved, Jiang Ning could see that Xie Xiaojiu's body movements were extremely extraordinary. He must have practiced some special body techniques, and that technique must be of an extremely high level. "Miss Xie's ninth daughter is so fast!" "Yes! Her body is like a shadow. Her Willow Catkins Body Skills are probably already perfected, or even complete!" "Is this the martial arts genius? Before she turned 20, she has already entered the eighth level of martial arts and her body movements are so outstanding. Most importantly, Xie Xiaojiu, the ninth daughter of the Xie family, is famous for her natural swordsmanship!" "With such a prodigy, it's no wonder that Wanhua Tower Master Lin took a fancy to her in his early years!" For a moment, everyone below was amazed. And at this moment on the stage. The distance of ten feet was crossed in an instant in front of Xie Xiaojiu. Zheng——
The moment Xie Xiaojiu got close, the sword flashed like snow. When everyone saw clearly, the tip of Xie Xiaojiu's sword had been blocked by Jiang Ning's sword. Jiang Ning's upper body also leaned back slightly, using the strength of his waist and abdomen to dissolve Xie Xiaojiu's stab that carried the force of thunder. With this attack, the movements of both men suddenly became steady. "What a strong force!" Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed as he felt the tremendous force coming through the tip of Xie Xiaojiu's sword. Xie Xiaojiu is estimated to have a strength of nearly three thousand kilograms. With just one simple strike, Jiang Ning made a judgment instantly. What a powerful force! Xie Xiaojiu looked at Jiang Ning who was so close to him, and a hint of shock flashed across his eyes. She was well aware of her own power. He has a force of 2,800 kilograms. As a woman, it is extremely difficult to reach this level of strength in the eighth level of martial arts. If she were not the ninth lady of the Xie family, if she were not so talented in martial arts and highly valued, if she were not valued and helped by Lin Qingyi. If any one of these factors is missing, she would not be able to achieve this power as a woman at the eighth level of martial arts. She originally thought that her current strength, if not to mention being the best among the eighth-grade martial artists, would at least stand out from the crowd. She never expected that her first mission would end in failure. You know, she didn't hold back any strength when she struck this sword, trying to defeat him with just one strike. With the thunderous momentum after the charge, the speed and explosive power of this sword are 20% to 30% higher than normal. Jiang Ning simply stood there with his sword across his body to block, and easily took on her most powerful attack. After being surprised, Xie Xiaojiu made a judgment instantly. My strength must be inferior to Jiang Ning's. Otherwise, Jiang Ning wouldn't have taken her most powerful sword attack so easily without even retreating. at this time. When the looks in their eyes changed, only the two of them knew how powerful the other was. In the eyes of outsiders, they could only see Xie Xiaojiu's agility and Jiang Ning's fearlessness in the face of danger. next moment. Jiang Ning's right arm holding the knife shook, and the force came out through the blade. Xie Xiaojiu's eyes changed again, and his body floated backwards like willow catkins. Swah—— The blade cut through the air, and the wind whistled sharply.
In front of this knife, Xie Xiaojiu's figure in the air was like a ball of willow catkins. Affected by the wind swept by the long knife, her figure floated slightly again. A slight error is a huge difference. The blade brushed past Xie Xiaojiu's shoulder. Suddenly. The knife fell halfway when it suddenly stopped in mid-air. Then, as Jiang Ning exerted force with his wrist, the blade of the long sword instantly changed from chopping to slashing. The knife went straight to Xie Xiaojiu's shoulder. And at the moment when the knife stopped, Xie Xiaojiu's slightly cold eyes suddenly sank, and her upper body fell down. Xie Xiaojiu immediately showed off her slender and boneless waist. The moment her long black ponytail swept across the ground, she had already avoided the horizontal slashing knife. The blade brushed past Xie Xiaojiu's soft waist and cut off a corner of her tight black clothes. Subsequently. Halfway through the knife's momentum, the blade paused again, and Jiang Ning was about to change from slashing to chopping. But at this time, Xie Xiaojiu had already predicted this step, the moment when her waist was bent. She immediately tapped her toes and exerted force with her calves. Like a windmill, it passed in front of Jiang Ning and came to his side. "This Ninth Miss Xie has such a strong ability to respond and such outstanding physical skills!" "Yes! This body movement, Xie Xiaojiu's Willow Catkins Body Movement must have been perfected! Even the body movement is perfected, this Xie Xiaojiu's martial arts talent is really incredible!" "Don't even mention Xie Xiaojiu. Jiang Ning is obviously much stronger than everyone expected!" "Indeed, such a fast sword technique, yet the transition is so smooth and natural. Jiang Ning's sword technique should not be underestimated!" "Speaking of which, there is one thing I have always been confused about. Did Jiang Ning really just start learning martial arts a few months ago?" "That must be right! I have a friend who drank with Jiang Ning, and that friend told me personally." "." Seeing this wonderful scene on the ring, everyone spoke up. at this time. On the stage. Xie Xiaojiu used his body skills to go around Jiang Ning from in front of him to his side, and then the tip of his sword flashed, heading straight for Jiang Ning's right arm. aware of this scene. Jiang Ning turned the blade and the speed of the blade increased again. Although he does not have enough combat experience now.
In most cases, the enemies Jiang Ning had faced before were also dealt with by him with just a few slashes. But at this moment Jiang Ning still did not relax at all. The so-called fighting was simple in his eyes. A quick reaction and high speed are more important than any experience. If you react quickly enough, you can deal with any attack from the enemy with ease. If the speed is fast enough, then you can achieve the goal of being the first to arrive after starting later, which means you will be able to handle the situation with ease. At this time, Jiang Ning's five senses were incredibly strong. He would instantly notice every move and slight change of Xie Xiaojiu. Even behind him, just from the sound of the wind and the changes in airflow, Jiang Ning felt as if he had eyes behind him and could easily detect all the changes around him. Clang—— The swords clashed and a flash of fire passed by. Xie Xiaojiu's face suddenly changed. Jiang Ning's sudden acceleration of the knife was completely beyond her expectations. The power delivered by this knife made her even more frightened. After the blow, his right arm went numb and he could barely hold the hilt of the sword. Jiang Ning's sword directly destroyed his entire balance. This knife also knocked away the long sword in Xie Xiaojiu's hand, leaving the door wide open for her. next moment. She saw Jiang Ning's left hand pass through her wide-open middle door and land on her chest. "It's over!" Jiang Ning's voice sounded faintly in her ears. Then, Xie Xiaojiu felt a vast and powerful force passing through Jiang Ning's palm and falling onto her soft chest. Her figure was knocked away and flew towards the edge of the ring behind her. bang—— The unbalanced body fell heavily on the ground under the ring. "Thank you!" Jiang Ning said. "Thank you!" Xie Xiaojiu stood up, looked at Jiang Ning deeply, then turned and left. Even though her chest was aching slightly at the moment, she knew that Jiang Ning must have shown mercy. If she hadn't shown mercy, based on the power she had just felt from Jiang Ning.
One palm strike was enough to cause his internal organs to vibrate and cause him to spit blood. Rather than just the dull pain like now. At this moment, feeling the pain in his chest, Xie Xiaojiu really wanted to reach out and rub it. But thinking that this was a training ground and there were so many people here, she could only suppress her thoughts. Rubbing the wound on her chest in public was indeed a bit indecent, especially for a young girl like her. In the arena. "I have underestimated her! The ninth young lady of the Xie family is quite promising!" Jiang Ning muttered to himself. Then he added another sentence in his mind. But this is a bit presumptuous. I hope she can keep the promise she just made. Xie Xiaojiu's strength is much stronger than I had imagined. It is estimated that even when Shi Xiaoyuan transforms, he is no match for Xie Xiaojiu. There was already a lot of discussion under the stage. "Is this the end?" "It's over! Xie Xiaojiu was a little careless and was slapped on the chest by Jiang Ning. Then Xie Xiaojiu was behind Jiang Ning, too close to the edge of the ring. He naturally lost when he fell off the ring!" "You can't say that! If you lose, you lose. There's no such thing as underestimating the enemy or not underestimating the enemy!" "You obviously underestimated your opponent! Can't you see that, brother? Xie Xiaojiu is famous for her talent in swordsmanship. She didn't even use her full strength in swordsmanship before falling off the stage. It's obvious that this is not her true strength!" "Speaking of which, I really envy Jiang Ning! He can take advantage of the ninth lady of the Xie family openly." "Brother, you are being a bit vulgar!!!" "." the other side. Zhou Xing opened his mouth slightly: "Junior Brother Jiang is so powerful??" "Junior Brother Jiang is really amazing!" Li Qing looked a little jealous. "Good! Good job!!" Wang Jin looked pleased. Especially when he saw Yu Yuan with a surprised look on his face, he felt extremely happy. If the disciples are outstanding, the master will be proud. The direction where the three families of Cao, Liu and Xie are located. "Xie Xiaojiu actually lost?" Cao Zijian looked surprised.
"Damn it! This kid actually took advantage of Xiaojiu just now!" Liu Zhaonan cursed. "Pfft!" Cao Zijian laughed when he heard that, and then asked, "Brother Zhaonan, are you angry?" Liu Zhaonan said: "This is not called anger, this is called jealousy!!" Then Liu Zhaonan said, "Xie Xiaojiu is so beautiful and talented, and she is the ninth daughter of the Xie family. How could such a good thing be taken by him!" "Brother Zhaonan is a man of character!" Cao Zijian thought for a while before uttering these words. The direction where the Wuyuan disciples are. The pale and thin He Jinyun also showed a hint of surprise at this time. "This guy is quite amazing! Not only is his body movement outstanding, but his mastery and use of the sword has reached the level of following his heart. It is obvious that his sword skills are extraordinary!" "Indeed, he is extraordinary!" Qin Xuan nodded slightly, and then continued: "If there is no truly powerful person to attack his ring, Jiang Ning will probably become the first captain of Luoshui County." "The probability is not high, unless he can still defeat Lu Renyao!" He Jinyun said lightly. "Lv Renyao?" Qin Xuan, who was wearing a black gilded robe, showed a look of surprise. "Look, look over there!" He Jinyun said lightly. Qin Xuan followed his gaze and immediately saw Lu Renyao walking forward. "Is he going to attack this kid's ring?" "Of course!" He Jinyun nodded. "Lü Renyao is a vengeful guy! Just now in the first round of the test, he found Jiang Ning, and Jiang Ning rejected him! With Lu Renyao's personality, he will definitely take revenge on the spot if he gets the chance." Qin Xuan glanced at Lu Renyao's back, then smiled slightly: "It will be fun if Lu Renyao goes on stage and loses!" "It's too difficult to defeat Lu Renyao! Although he is not as good as you and me, he is stronger than Liu Sansheng. I heard that Lu Renyao's strength is more than 2,500 kilograms. Coupled with Lu Renyao's perfect body skills and perfect Dieyun Palm, how could he be defeated in such a small place!" "I think Lu Renyao might lose!" Qin Xuan said. "Oh? Are you so optimistic about this kid from Luoshui County?" “He gives a different feeling!” (End of this chapter)
