Nangong Hao's words were directed at Fang Zhengzhi.
However, when they heard this, Wu Feng, Chen Feiyu, and the rest of the candidates had more questions than Fang Zhengzhi.
"Nangong Hao really came out alone?"
"What is he trying to do?"
All of the candidates looked at each other in disbelief.
In fact, when they saw Nangong Hao walk out of the Icy Monkey Settlement, they thought that they were hallucinating. After all, this was something that no one could have imagined.
Was Nangong Hao stupid?
Of course he wasn't stupid. Then, what was he planning?
Was Nangong Hao trying to fight 10,000 alone?
Behind Fang Zhengzhi, there were more than 40,000 soldiers. In addition to the 6,000 that Yan Xiu had brought, there were close to 50,000 of them.
How was Nangong Hao going to fight them alone?
All of the candidates could not understand. All of the commanders did not understand. As for Fang Zhengzhi, he did not even think about it.
"Actually, I am not that close to you." Fang Zhengzhi smirked. Then, he waved to one of the commanders behind him, "Are you close to him?"
"Ah?" The commander did not know how to react. He looked at Fang Zhengzhi, then at Nangong Hao. He did not know how to reply.
However, he gritted his teeth when he thought about the camp he belonged to.
"Not close!"
"As the saying goes, no discord, no concord. Since you are not close, let's shoot a few arrows to increase our friendship." Fang Zhengzhi nodded in satisfaction. Then, he waved to the commanders behind him.
"Shoot a couple of arrows to strengthen our friendship?" The commander was stunned once again.
What kind of reason was that?
His mind could not keep up with Fang Zhengzhi. However, even though he could not keep up, he still heard Fang Zhengzhi's orders. However, he had a strange expression on his face.
What was going on?
Were they going to start fighting?
They were not prepared at all. Furthermore, Nangong Hao had left the Icy Monkey Settlement alone. Was Fang Zhengzhi not curious about Nangong Hao's motives?
He did not understand.
However, he still gave the order!
"Archers, get ready!"
"Shoot!"
As the two commands rang out, hundreds of white arrows flew towards Nangong Hao, who was standing at the entrance of the Icy Monkey Settlement like raindrops.
Not only did the military commanders not understand what was happening, even the surrounding candidates had a look of bewilderment on their faces.
After all, in their hearts, who would do such a thing? Wasn't this blatant bullying? The other party had purposely come out to greet them, but you just said that you weren't familiar with them and then started shooting!
Was there such a way to play?
Moreover, his opponent was Nangong Hao!
Was Fang Zhengzhi not afraid at all?
…
Would Fang Zhengzhi be scared?
Of course not.
He didn't even bother to explain his profound knowledge to the scholars around him. Shooting arrows at each other wasn't something an ordinary person could think of.
To put it bluntly, improving their friendship was only one of the reasons. There were two other reasons. Firstly, Fang Zhengzhi could not bear to see Nangong Hao acting like this. What was he doing here?
He couldn't see the tens of thousands of soldiers behind him!
Fine, if you can't see it, you should be able to see me shooting a few arrows right?
That was the first reason. The second reason was to provoke him.
Fang Zhengzhi couldn't be bothered to guess what Nangong Hao's motive was. As such, he decided to shoot a few arrows at Nangong Hao. Then, he would reveal his motive.
"Ding ding ding..."
A series of sounds that sounded like raindrops rang out, and after the white arrows flew into the sky, they also fell back down like raindrops, stabbing deep into the ground.
As for Nangong Hao, he didn't move at all.
He stood quietly on the spot and stared at Fang Zhengzhi calmly. His body was surrounded by a white aura that looked like an icy fog.
When the white arrows came into contact with the white aura, they all deviated from their trajectories. It was almost as if they were pushed away by some sort of force. Or rather...
Slipped?
"Is the Nangong Family's" Dragon Combat Plan "ice?" Fang Zhengzhi thought to himself.
He remembered that when he first met Nangong Mu, he had heard that the Nangong Family had two secret techniques, the "Dragon Combat Plan" and the "Green and Blue Secret Art".
Nangong Mu chose the "Green and Blue Secret Art". Green represented wood and blue represented ice.
As for the "Dragon Combat Plan", Fang Zhengzhi didn't know much about it. He had only heard of it. He had never seen it before. As such, he could only guess.
However, he wasn't sure. After all, the "Dragon Combat Plan" was one of the two secret techniques of the Nangong Family. It should be more than just ice.
"The" Dragon Combat Plan "is not completely ice." Yan Xiu chimed in.
"Not completely ice? Then... what else is there? " Fang Zhengzhi thought that since Yan Xiu had spoken, he would explain in detail. However, Yan Xiu's words were as good as not saying anything.
"There are two explanations. One is that the" Dragon Combat Plan "is nothing. The other is that the" Dragon Combat Plan "is everything." Yan Xiu explained.
"Nothing? Everything? "Fang Zhengzhi didn't understand what Yan Xiu meant.
"To put it simply, the" Dragon Combat Plan "doesn't have any special characteristics. In fact, its only special characteristic is that it can contain everything. It is completely different from the" Green and Blue Secret Art ". The" Green and Blue Secret Art "counters each other. However, the" Dragon Combat Plan "is different. It is a blank space. The difficulty lies in how many things can be contained in this blank space!" Yan Xiu explained patiently.
"It is a blank space? I see! "When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he finally understood why Yan Xiu said that it was not completely ice.
He also understood why the Nangong Family would choose to cultivate the "Dragon Combat Plan" instead of the "Green and Blue Secret Art".
If Yan Xiu's explanation was that the "Dragon Combat Plan" was a blank space, then the logic was simple.
The Dragon Combat Plan was like a blank piece of paper, a blank piece of paper that could be used to write any word.
Was it difficult to write a word on a blank piece of paper?
Of course not!
Compared to the "Green and Blue Secret Art", this was way too easy. As such, this secret art would be highly sought after by many.
The biggest difference between the "Dragon Combat Plan" and the "Green and Blue Secret Art" was the starting point. The "Dragon Combat Plan" had a low starting point. However, it required a lot of time and enlightenment.
On the other hand, the "Green and Blue Secret Art" had a high starting point. Five or ten years might not be enough. However, once one understood the principles behind it, one's progress would skyrocket.
In essence, there wasn't much difference between these two unique skills.
However, if it was the talented Nangong Hao, the difference would be obvious.
The "Green and Blue Secret Art" had a high starting point and was powerful. However, it was limited by its special characteristics. However, the "Dragon Combat Plan" was different.
It had a low starting point. The initial stages were easy, but the latter stages were difficult.
However, it was a blank piece of paper. A blank piece of paper with limitless possibilities. Once this blank piece of paper had a solid foundation, then no matter what one drew on it.
Everything could be contained!
When Fang Zhengzhi thought about this, he finally understood Nangong Hao's abilities. He also understood why all of the candidates had such an expression on their faces when they saw Nangong Hao.
Even though...
Nangong Hao came out alone!
When Wu Feng heard the conversation between Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu, he was even more shocked than Fang Zhengzhi had expected.
Wu Feng did not just know how powerful the "Dragon Combat Plan" was.
He also knew.
Nangong Hao had already reached a sage state. That was the Natural Heart Dao!
If there was a state in this world that could allow the Dragon Combat Plan to unleash its terrifying power, then it would be the state of Nature's Heart.
The "Dragon Combat Plan" could contain all Daos.
On the other hand, the Natural Dao Heart was a state of mind that allowed a person to do anything with his Dao Heart, whether it was killing, seeking, evil, or righteous.
Nangong Hao had a mental state that could encompass any great Dao, as well as an ultimate technique that could encompass all things and had infinite possibilities.
Wu Feng knew this very well. As such, even when he had 20,000 soldiers, he had never thought of trying his luck at the Icy Monkey Settlement.
However...
Wu Feng knew this point, but it didn't mean that everyone knew this point.
For example, Chen Feiyu.
Chen Feiyu knew how powerful Nangong Hao was. However, he knew that Nangong Hao was only in the Heavenly Reflection State.
Could a Heavenly Reflection State cultivator defeat a Supernatural State cultivator?
Of course.
However, would it be easy to defeat a Supernatural State cultivator? That was impossible. After all, no matter how powerful one's state of mind was, one's techniques could not suppress a Supernatural State cultivator.
"This is an opportunity!" Chen Feiyu did not think that he could defeat Nangong Hao. However, he wanted to try.
Especially in front of 50,000 soldiers.
If this battle could be fought to the fullest, then his name, Chen Feiyu, would definitely resound throughout the Great Xia Dynasty and receive great attention.
Chen Feiyu had always been frustrated. He would not let go of any opportunity.
Even though he knew that he was going to lose.
So what?
He did not believe that after this battle, these people would not notice that he had broken through the Heavenly Reflection State and entered the Supernatural State!
"Fang Zhengzhi!" Chen Feiyu finally spoke after he understood this point.
"Young Master Chen... what's the matter?" Just as Fang Zhengzhi was thinking about whether he should shoot a few more arrows, he heard Chen Feiyu's voice ring out beside his ear.
"Today, Nangong Hao is fighting alone. This is a provocation to our army. I request for permission to fight and let Nangong Hao know the prestige of our army!" Chen Feiyu said very directly. His words could not be said to be lacking in style.
He was filled with the demeanor of a knowledgeable and knowledgeable general.
However, when all of the scholars and military commanders heard Chen Feiyu's words, they were all confused.
"What is Chen Feiyu doing?"
"He wants to challenge Nangong Hao! Is he itching for a beating? "
"Does he think that he can fight with Nangong Hao?"
All of the candidates started to discuss amongst themselves, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.
Wu Feng was also shocked when he heard Chen Feiyu's words. He acknowledged Chen Feiyu's abilities. However, he wanted to fight with Nangong Hao?
Wasn't that asking to be humiliated?
Evidently, this was everyone's first thought when they heard Chen Feiyu's words.
However, Fang Zhengzhi didn't think this way.
Only he knew what Chen Feiyu was thinking. Because, he knew very well that Chen Feiyu had already reached the Supernatural State. This was also the reason why he wasn't the least bit surprised when Chen Feiyu blocked his Million Sword Illustration.
"Looks like this guy really wants to show off?" When Fang Zhengzhi took down Chen Feiyu, he felt slightly guilty.
After all, Chen Feiyu was of the Supernatural State.
After enduring for so long, not giving him a chance to show off was not very kind.
When he thought about this, Fang Zhengzhi's heart softened.
"Alright, since Young Master Chen is willing to fight, I will allow it. However, please be careful!" Fang Zhengzhi tried his best to appear concerned.
After all, Chen Feiyu was the first candidate to challenge Nangong Hao.
Yan Xiu's lips moved at this moment, as if he was about to say something. However, when he heard Fang Zhengzhi's words, he quickly closed his mouth.
He didn't say a single word.
When Chen Feiyu heard Fang Zhengzhi's agreement, he smiled. This opportunity was even more valuable than taking down Wu Feng in the Thunderous Lion Settlement.
"Nangong Hao! Today, I, Chen Feiyu, want to see how powerful you are! "Chen Feiyu's eyes lit up. At the same time, he unsheathed his sword.
That was a form of excitement.
At the very least, it was rare to have a chance to fight with Nangong Hao. To be able to experience Nangong Hao's abilities personally and have a good fight with him, how could he not be excited?
Nangong Hao remained rooted to the ground. However, when he heard Chen Feiyu's voice, his gaze remained calm.
"Alright, Young Master Chen, please." Nangong Hao's tone was very polite. He wasn't angered by Fang Zhengzhi's previous actions, nor did he look down on Chen Feiyu's challenge.
