Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

Chapter 181 The Competition Begins

The first one to go on stage will inevitably suffer a loss, so after the abbot of Qianshan Temple said start, no one moved.

Yue Pengyu wanted to stand up when he saw this, but another figure got there first.

After a closer look, she found that she didn't recognize him at all.

However, Lou Xiao stared at him intently. If that man didn't look really unremarkable, Xiao Zhengdu would have thought that Lou Xiao was interested in him.

"Chongding. Are you sure you want to start first?" The abbot confirmed the identity of the man who stood up, and the other party just nodded without any unnecessary movements.

Everyone in the square was talking to each other, not knowing who this person was.

What kind of person dares to be the first to go on stage alone? Isn't he afraid of being a stepping stone for others?

Even Xiao Zhengdu leaned close to her ear and asked her again, "Who is he?"

Lou Xiao looked around and didn't see any flamboyant figures among the group of simple people.

It was not easy to explain it to Xiao Zhengdu in detail, so he just said vaguely,

"It seems like he is someone's guard. I have met him before. He is quite powerful, but..."

But his master felt something was strange.

"Guard?" Xiao Zhengdu also took a look. He was of medium height and had a nondescript face.

I guess the age of thirty is when one’s body is at its strongest.

He compared them with the guards around him and they did look somewhat similar.

"Is there someone in Yunsu City who wants the secret manual but doesn't want to attract attention, so he lets his guards fight for it?"

Xiao Zhengdu thought of this at the first moment. He didn't believe that a group of merchants in Yunsu City didn't know how valuable the secret book was.

And how could that group of well-informed businessmen let good things fall into the hands of scumbags?

In the square, apart from the ones with the same style as Hengjian Villa and some people gathered together who looked like sworn brothers,

How many people from all walks of life have mixed in with the remaining wanderers?

"I always feel that I must have seen him a long time ago...but I can't remember it." Lou Xiao touched his chin in thought, ignoring Xiao Zhengdu's guess.

As the crowd was pushed aside, a sturdy man with half of his face covered with beard walked out from among the whispering people.

He was holding a machete, with piercing eyes, wearing dark grey cloth, with frizzy hair, and looked down upon the gangsters behind him.

"What are you afraid of? Whoever comes first will come first. It's not shameful if you can't beat them! Let me try!"

After saying that, he raised the machete and chopped at the heavy tripod, which was too reckless.

Even Xiao Zhengdu could see that this strong man had no martial arts skills and relied entirely on brute force.

He was not surprised to see Chong Ding raise his hand and quickly knock the machete out of the sturdy man's hand.

There was no need for any extra moves. He just pushed along with his strength and the sturdy man lost his stability and almost fell to the ground.

But the strong man knew that he was defeated, so he didn't get angry. He turned around and stood firm, then he clasped his fists and admitted defeat.

"Great martial arts, sir! I can't beat you!"

Chong Ding had no expression on his face, he just cupped his hands, and the sturdy man happily picked up his machete.

Standing in the front row of the crowd.

It makes people suspect that he couldn't wait to run out not for the competition, but to find an excuse to stand in the front position to watch the fun.

Should I say he is smart, or...

The first round of competition ended hastily, and the winner drew lots.

The new young monk was holding a wooden box with bamboo rafts with names written on them.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Chong Ding reached into the wooden box, took out a bamboo raft and handed it to the abbot.

He reads out the challenger's name.

Although Xiao Zhengdu didn't really want Lou Xiao to go up, he couldn't help but look forward to Lou Xiao's name a little. However, the result was not as he expected, as it was an unfamiliar name.

"Sun Youli!"

He doesn't know him, but there must be someone in the underworld who knows him.

I saw a slender man walking out of a group of people not far away.

He looked like he was stretched out, with long arms and legs, and even a narrower face than others.

Xiao Zhengdu laughed softly, "It's like the bamboo has become a spirit. I'm afraid it will break if it's bent."

Lou Xiao kicked him on the leg to stop him from talking.

"Speak softly. Everyone has sharp ears and sharp eyes. If you hear it, you will offend others."

Xiao Zhengdu disagreed, "So what if I've offended you? Are you here to kill me?"

Lou Xiao was speechless.

He is the dignified King of Youshan. In his eyes, the biggest threat is only in the capital.

The grudges among the people in the underworld have nothing to do with him, and he will not take them seriously.

Lou Xiao felt that his idea was wrong, but she also knew that due to his status, it was a luxury to expect a nobleman to understand and respect ordinary people.

"There's no need to add to the grudges. The little people you look down upon may cause you to fall flat on your face at any time."

Lou Xiao raised her chin to let him look at the competition field, "Look at how he walks, he has practiced before, at least he is better than the guy just now."

Xiao Zhengdu moved closer to her, so close that he could almost feel her body temperature.

He looked at the gap between the two people on the field and knew that there was no need to compare, as the outcome was already determined.

But since Lou Xiao asked him to take a look, he just let him take a look.

Sun Youli raised his thin and long hand as a greeting, and without saying anything, he quickly approached, his body as flexible as a snake.

Focus on the vital points.

Chong Ding blocked his body with his elbow and swept it across. Sun Youli leaned back and

He bent to an incredible degree to avoid the attack, and immediately twisted his body to get behind Chong Ding.

Kick towards Chongding's knee.

Lou Xiao remembered that he had treated someone in the same way before, and he almost fell to his knees.

She couldn't help but glance at Xiao Zhengdu beside her, causing Xiao Zhengdu to look sideways, "What's wrong?"

"Ahem, it's okay."

The heavy tripod's lower body was stable, and even though it was kicked, its body did not move at all.

This gave Chong Ding the opportunity to pull it out from behind, but Sun Youli rolled back to avoid it.

Chong Ding swept his leg towards where he landed, trying to sweep this cartilage snake to the ground.

Sun Youli could only turn around again, but he didn't expect to be kicked away by Chongding.

The intense pain in the air made Sun Youli lose consciousness. Chong Ding jumped up and kicked again.

Just looking at it makes my flesh hurt.

Lou Xiao connected Zhong Ding's next move in her mind, pulling Sun Youli's hand and leg,

While falling, he hit his bent knees...

The angle was just right, enough to break his spine.

Cruel but effective.

Chong Ding did everything according to her idea. In the end, it was unknown whether Sun Youli regained consciousness or what.

He turned over abruptly and broke free from the control of the heavy tripod at the cost of dislocating his arm.

The onlookers exclaimed in surprise, both for the death he almost faced and for his escape from death.

He retreated far away with sweat all over his forehead, barely raised his hand and admitted defeat at the speed of light, not daring to fight again.

He even didn't dare to accuse him of being too harsh and might kill him on the spot, so he left in a hurry.

Lou Xiao couldn't help but look at the heavy tripod a few more times, full of doubts.

These moves or habits of his...she seemed to have used them before.

But the memory was too old, and she had already forgotten a lot.
