Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun were mentioned in many unofficial histories, acrobatics, and storytelling. The two of them seemed to have a history, and there were many stories about the two of them in the storytelling.
According to the storytelling, Zhao Yun met the spear prodigy Tong Yuan when he was young. After Tong Yuan saw Zhao Yun, he realized that Zhao Yun was born for the spear and had an affinity with the spear. He had long planned to take Zhao Yun in as his disciple.
However, Tong Yuan was very clear that although his special skill, the Phoenix Spear, was powerful, it was not the most perfect spear art. Even if there were no major flaws, at least it was not perfect.
Tong Yuan believed that if he taught Zhao Yun this spear technique, it might limit Zhao Yun's development. Even if Zhao Yun could become a peerless spear prodigy in the future, or even surpass Tong Yuan, it was not the best choice for Zhao Yun.
Therefore, Tong Yuan decided to only teach Zhao Yun the basic spear techniques and not teach him the various techniques. At the same time, he only taught him the techniques and did not take him in as a disciple.
Just like that, Zhao Yun followed Tong Yuan and practiced the basic spear techniques over and over again. After that, Tong Yuan chose to leave, leaving Zhao Yun's future development on the path of the spear to himself.
Later on, Zhao Yun relied on his own understanding of spear arts and the influence of Tong Yuan's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear to gradually create his own spear art – the Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique.
Therefore, in a practical sense, the probability of Zhao Yun being Zhang Xiu's junior was very high. However, Zhao Yun did not know that his senior was Tong Yuan, and he did not even know that the person who taught him the basic spear techniques for three years was the spear prodigy Tong Yuan.
Of course, this was only a part of the legend. As for how Zhang Xiu's character attributes were set in the game, how the two of them were set as masters, that was a very difficult thing to say.
Yang Rui had seen Zhang Xiu in action before. The more he studied his spear techniques, the more similar they were to Zhao Yun's spear techniques. To a large extent, it proved that Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun were from the same sect.
At the same time, Zhao Yun's spear technique was the Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique. According to Yang Rui's confirmation, Zhao Yun's reaction was a little strange.
However, Yang Rui only subconsciously thought about it. He didn't ask Zhao Yun about the specifics, and he didn't mention it again.
At the very least, Zhao Yun's marksmanship had been proven. Perhaps Zhang Xiu's situation in the game was just as recorded in various acrobatics. There was a subtle connection between the two of them.
After Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun saw each other's moves, they exchanged attacks and defended against each other for more than 20 rounds. The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not use any spear skills.
"Ding! Ding! Ding … "
Ping! Ping! Ping … "
"…"
Yang Rui, who was also proficient in marksmanship, thought to himself, "Perhaps this is the correct way to use a gun."
Although they did not use any skills in the first 20 moves, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu both used their spears with ease. It was very pleasing to the eye.
This was a problem of realms. At the very least, Yang Rui could not figure out why the two of them only used normal attacks at the beginning of the battle and did not use any skills. It should not be just to test each other.
After 20 moves, Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun's spear techniques changed. Zhang Xiu used his ultimate spear technique, which was the same as the first time Yang Rui saw Zhang Xiu use. Zhao Yun also used his ultimate spear technique, the Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique.
"Creak!"
Zhang Xiu used his ultimate spear technique, the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix. The spear technique was dazzling and the light was blurry. From afar, it looked like a phoenix was raising its head and crying. Moreover, as the spear danced, the sound of birds chirping could be heard.
Yang Rui looked over and knew that Zhang Xiu's spear technique had improved. Compared to the first time Yang Rui saw him, it could not be mentioned in the same breath.
Zhang Xiu's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix spear technique was dazzling and colorful. It was also overflowing with killing intent. Every ray of light could cause damage.
"Hiss! Hiss! "
Zhao Yun also used his spear technique. It was his ultimate spear technique, the Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique.
Compared to Zhang Xiu's dazzling spear technique, Zhao Yun's Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique's might did not seem obvious. The faint humming sound was like the hissing of a venomous snake. One could faintly see a large coiling snake.
Although it was not obvious, the inner strength contained in Zhao Yun's spear technique was not inferior to Zhang Xiu's.
Yang Rui, who had already returned to the Icy Sand City to watch the battle, saw Zhao Yun use the Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique's ultimate spear technique. Yang Rui nodded inwardly. When he sparred with Zhao Yun, he would often experience Zhao Yun's ultimate spear technique. Naturally, he knew how powerful it was.
Moreover, Zhao Yun's Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique's ultimate spear technique was much more refined than before. The large snake's shadow was also more solid. If one observed carefully, they would notice that Zhao Yun's movements were much more skillful and faster.
It could be said that Zhao Yun's Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique relied on the large snake to complete. Now that the large snake was more agile and faster, it also meant that Zhao Yun's Seven Snakes Coiling Spear Technique was more powerful.
Of course, the large snake's attack was only on the surface. The real attack still relied on the spear in Zhao Yun's hand. The large snake's shadow was mainly the result of the spear in Zhao Yun's hand.
"Boom … …"
"Weng … …"
"… …"
Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun both used their unique skills. The level of the confrontation between the two people and the two spears had already changed. The sound of the weapons colliding had also changed from the sharp sound of light weapons to the rumbling and trembling of hot weapons.
This was the shocking part of the clash between top-notch experts. It even far surpassed the clash between Yang Rui and Cai Mao.
Of course, it did not mean that there was a huge difference in strength between Yang Rui and Cai Mao, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu. The most important thing was that the two generals were using the same weapon, and there was a high chance that they came from the same source. They were very familiar with each other's moves, and correspondingly, the battle was much more intense.
"Boom … …"
"Weng … …"
"… …"
It almost made people feel that not much time had passed, but the battle between Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu was already close to a hundred rounds. Firstly, the battle between the two was truly exciting, making people forget the existence of time.
In addition, the attack and defense speed of the spear type weapons, as well as the characteristics of the two's ultimate skills, also determined that this was a battle of speed against speed. It was a test of the two's explosive power and tolerance for mistakes.
