What happened?
Nobody understood why Meng Yushu would slip. Furthermore, after he slipped … he just happened to collide with Fang Zhengzhi's fist.
The entire place was silent …
Everybody stared blankly at Fang Zhengzhi, who was slowly retracting his fist.
Defeated?! Meng Yushu lost? How did he lose?
On the judging panel, the county head, wearing his official robes, stared with his eyes wide open. He looked at Fang Zhengzhi on the stage, then looked at the scholarly middle-aged man beside him.
He also didn't understand what had just happened.
On the other hand, when the scholarly middle-aged man saw the county head look at him, he also shook his head. His expression was the same as the county head, completely filled with disbelief.
"I see!" At this moment, Imperial Messenger Qin muttered softly.
"Did Imperial Messenger see anything?" The county head turned and looked at Imperial Messenger Qin.
"Yes, actually you can say that you saw it, or you can say that you didn't. County Head Wang, look over there!" As Imperial Messenger Qin spoke, he pointed towards the front left of Fang Zhengzhi.
"Rock?!" County Head Wang's gaze froze, then suddenly became shocked. "You mean just now, he …"
"That's right. However, whether this rock was originally on the stage, or thrown onto the stage by him, this is unknown …" Imperial Messenger Qin seemed to be deep in thought.
"But, this doesn't make sense! Meng Yushu is participating in the first round, the possibility of a rock appearing on the stage isn't very high! Furthermore, even if there really was a rock on the stage, how could he be sure that Meng Yushu would definitely step on that rock? Furthermore, how could he be sure that the place where Meng Yushu fell would definitely be the place where he punched? " The more the county head thought, the more he felt that it was impossible. But, the more impossible it was, the more shocked he was.
The reason for that was because while this matter sounded simple, it was extremely difficult to actually accomplish.
"I don't know, but he had indeed done it … didn't he?" Imperial Messenger Qin shook his head.
The county head didn't speak anymore. But, when he looked at Fang Zhengzhi again, his expression evidently became somewhat complicated. Indeed, as Imperial Messenger Qin said, no matter how the matter happened, Fang Zhengzhi had indeed done it …
At this moment, the scholarly middle-aged man's gaze was also fixated on that small piece of rock on the stage. Then, he looked at the unconscious Meng Yushu below the stage, his eyes flickering with an eerie chill.
The examinees naturally heard the conversation between the judges. Then, he finally noticed the "uninvited guest" on the arena.
"Stone?!"
"A rock?"
All the examinees looked at each other speechlessly.
Meng Yushu tripped over a rock, then, coincidentally collided with Fang Zhengzhi's fist, then … he flew out?
Was this the truth?
But wasn't the truth too unbelievable?!
"Round one, Fang Zhengzhi wins!" The invigilator quickly announced the news of Fang Zhengzhi's victory.
However, there was only silence below the stage. Because, all the examinees still couldn't understand why there was such a coincidence in this world.
"Coincidence?" Yan Xiu's lips moved slightly. Then, he slowly shook his head. The Golden Bone Silver Thread Paper in his hand hurriedly shook a few times before it gradually calmed down.
…
"Fang Zhengzhi, isn't your luck a little too good?" Li Huer and Meng Yushu stared at Fang Zhengzhi, who had returned to his seat after coming down from the stage. Their eyes were filled with envy.
Fang Zhengzhi twitched his mouth in disdain. Towards this kind of question, he really couldn't be bothered to answer.
But, in the eyes of Li Huer and Meng Yushu, this expression seemed to indicate that he was powerless to argue.
"Alright, no matter how good your luck is, there will be a time when it will be used up!" Li Huer and Meng Yushu could only think this way.
…
The rest of the duel was somewhat boring.
Most of it was a battle of physical strength, or some strange techniques. Li Huer and Meng Yushu were rather bored, but Fang Zhengzhi was watching with great interest.
This kind of simple and unadorned technique was the most imaginative.
For example, there was a young master dressed in green who used the "Rhinoceros Gazing at the Moon". Even though there wasn't a rhinoceros or a moon, the main point was that after the "Rhinoceros Gazing at the Moon", it was still very free and easy.
It instantly caused his opponent to kneel down and beg for mercy.
Fang Zhengzhi had always been challenging Meng Yushu with the attitude of learning. This was also the reason why he allowed Meng Yushu to use a few moves first.
Following which, Meng Yushu and Li Huer seemed to be unlucky.
Because they were at the bottom of the Second-Class Roll in the theory examination, they naturally had to endure the attacks of a storm.
After Meng Yushu shouted "The Heavens want me dead!", he fell off the stage. His mouth was filled with mud, and he seemed extremely battered.
On the other hand, Li Huer was brave and fierce. His fists were like the wind of a tiger, and after being beaten to the point where he couldn't even retaliate, he forcefully pushed his opponent off the stage.
"I won, I won!"
Li Huer's excitement couldn't be suppressed at all. But, if he wore two large panda eyes, it would more or less be a little unsightly.
Finally, the first round ended.
Among the top three in the theory examination, Fang Zhengzhi defeated Meng Yushu with the momentum of being number one in the theory examination, and successfully entered the second round. On the other hand, Zheng Xinzhao's luck wasn't good.
Because, Li Bowei actually challenged him in the first round.
Then, a peerless battle broke out between the two of them. Every single move of theirs was truly dangerous, and they pressed forward step by step. In the end, Zheng Xinzhao was defeated. What was even more tragic was that he was actually seriously injured.
From the situation at that time, it seemed that Li Bowei was forced into a dangerous situation by Zheng Xinzhao, and almost fell off the stage. Then, with a backhand swing of his sword, he accidentally cut Zheng Xinzhao's wrist.
Severed Meridians!
This also meant that Zheng Xinzhao would definitely find it difficult to improve his martial arts in the future. But, this accident happened on the stage, and everyone saw the situation clearly. Hence, nobody blamed Li Bowei too much.
…
"Dong!" The second round of the combat examination officially began.
Fang Zhengzhi's ranking in the theory examination was extremely good. Regardless of whether he won this round or not, he would still be able to pass the Law of Dao examination. But Li Huer was different. He only had the Second-Class Roll in the theory examination, hence, he still needed to enter another round.
What was different from the first round was that this time round, there wasn't a "main" or "secondary" method to decide the battle. Instead, the battle was decided by drawing lots.
After all, the main and secondary method was only suitable for the first round of screening. The main purpose was to filter out the weaklings in everyone's hearts in the shortest time possible.
And after filtering out the weaklings who were trying to fish in troubled waters, the real battle would then be even more exciting.
The drawing of lots ended. Very quickly, different battle names appeared on the two roll stones.
Then …
Li Huer's expression didn't look too good. Because, he knew the person whose name corresponded to his. Furthermore, he was very familiar with him. The name was: Fang Zhengzhi!
