After Wang Tanzhi picked up the Titanium Alloy Jinhua Ham, he, Sword King, and Zhao Yun followed Ping Qingsheng across the bridge.
Even though Yi Da was not happy, he did not stop Xiao Tan. After all, the strange monk was his superior, and … he had seen Xiao Tan's power for himself.
Just like that, of the six players in the scenario, four had successfully entered the barrier under Ancient City and passed the threshold of the Martial Arts Competition. Another person, the Laughing Soul Bone, had already died in the battle.
The last one floating outside was Feng Bujue.
…
Fifteen minutes later, in front of the iron chain bridge at the main entrance of the Ancient City, there was another group of human figures that came over in a mighty manner.
"Hm?" Yi Da looked into the distance and muttered, "Another batch?"
There were more than ten people in the "batch" that he spoke of, and they were experts from different space-times.
There were five from the King of Fighters' world.
Four of them were 'Blowing Mist' Gornitz, 'Fate's Flame' Chris, 'Wild Rice Lightning' Sharmie, and 'Dry Earth' Seven Shackles She. These four were powerful people who could control natural phenomena with their own consciousness. They were known as the 'Four Serpent Kings', and they were the strongest of the 'Eight Serpent Heroes'.
The last one was Lucar Bernstein. He was the boss that appeared the most in the KOF series. His occupation was set as a black market arms dealer, and he was also a genius fighter. He had the fighting consciousness and wisdom of a genius. He could absorb the opponent's fighting power Upanishads and turn them into his own power in just a blink. As the original boss of the series, he was no doubt the players' first nightmare in the Arcade Game Hall era.
Then there were the four generals from the Unparalleled world.
They were 'Ancient's Evil' Dian Wei, 'Dong Wu's Fighting General' Gan Ning, 'Ten Thousand Man's Enemy' Zhang Fei, and 'Ghost's Heiba' Honda Tadakatsu. They were super generals from the four major forces of Unparalleled. Basically, they were not idols. In terms of fighting power, the uglier they were, the stronger they were. A handsome guy like Zhao Zilong had no chance of winning against them.
Then, there were two people from the Thunderbolt Universe …
One of them was the invincible legend of Japan, the "God of War" Minamoto Musashi, who was known as the "Number One Handsome Young Man in Japan". Beside Minamoto Musashi was Mo Zhaonu, who was known as the "Number One Handsome Young Man in Japan". Mo Zhaonu's appearance could be said to have raised the "average appearance" of their troops. To a certain extent, it also highlighted the ferocity of the four unparalleled fierce generals beside him.
Finally, there was a strange guy mixed in with this group of people. He was wearing a long purple suit and a [Smiling Face] on his face. His hands were in his pockets, and he walked quietly in the middle of the group.
"Tch … Make way, make way." When the group of people approached, Ida glanced at them and ordered the soldiers behind him to let them pass.
The dozen or so people didn't speak to Ida and just silently crossed the bridge.
Yi Da looked at the people in front of him and didn't have any reaction. But suddenly … he saw Feng Bujue in the crowd.
"Bridge Bean Sack!" Ida immediately shouted in Japanese. He pointed at Brother Jue and said, "Stop right there!"
When Feng Bujue heard this, his body froze. He turned his head and replied, "Are you calling me?"
"Nonsense! Of course, I'm calling you. "Ida walked directly toward Brother Jue and stopped one meter in front of him." Who are you? "
"Huh?" Feng Bujue replied, "You don't even know me?" His ability to lie through his teeth was superb. "I'm Wei Yan!"
"Huh? So you're Wei Yan? "Zhang Fei, who was in the crowd, heard this and turned his head to look at him.
"I say … Uncle …" Chris, who was walking in front, covered his face and shook his head. He said to Uncle Yide, "Can you not cause trouble …"
"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Ida was not easy to fool. He immediately shouted at Brother Jue, "It's not like I haven't seen Wei Yan before. Except for the mask you wear, do you look like Wei Yan at all? And the mask you wear is completely different from his! "
"Ah … Actually, it's like this." Feng Bujue calmly replied, "A while ago … My lord complained that my hairstyle was like a black rapper, that I dressed like an orc, that my body was like a cosplayer, that my moves were like Ninja Turtles, and that I spoke like an autistic person … I thought, no matter what, I'm a general. Even if I don't know how to recite poems and write essays, I know a lot of words. So, I can be considered a semi-literate person … It's not good to always show others that kind of image. So, I went to get a haircut, changed my clothes, cured my bowlegged legs, learned rap from Military Counselor for half a month, and lost some weight. " He paused and pointed to his face, "The mask I wore before doesn't match my current look, so I bought a new one."
"Who are you lying to!" Yi Da was shocked. This was the first time he had seen someone who could lie so calmly. "Who are you?"
"Ah … Brother Feng, I think it's better to forget it." Mo Zhaonu, who was walking at the back of the group, said, "I already said it won't work …"
"Brother Feng?" Ida heard this and looked at Brother Jue suspiciously.
"What Brother Feng?" Feng Bujue continued to play dumb, "Please call me General Wei, or Wen Chang."
"You brat …" The veins on Ida's forehead bulged, and he clenched his fists, "Are you deliberately playing with me …" Previously, when he fought with Xiao Tan, he had already accumulated a lot of anger. Now that Feng Bujue poured a ladle of boiling oil on him, he naturally burned up again, "Tell me! Who are you? Otherwise, this young master will chop you up right now! "
"Okay, okay …" Feng Bujue saw that the "muddling through" plan had failed, so he started "Plan B".
This plan … Simply put, it was "Plan B". To be more precise, it was "Pretend to be Plan B."
"Since you've asked so sincerely!" Brother Jue said, jumped back, straightened his back, got into a good posture, and said, "I will be merciful and answer you!"
"Can we go first …" Gornitz, who was walking at the front, already knew what Brother Jue was going to do, so he just closed his eyes and asked in a low voice.
"Ah …" Yuan Musang sighed, "Forget it … Anyway, we have already heard it once. It doesn't matter if we listen to it again …" The subtext of his sentence was — Anyway, we have already been mentally polluted once, so we won't lose our sanity points if we do it again.
"We just asked you to give us your name … What are you trying to say?" Yi Da also felt that something was wrong. Looking at Brother Jue's posture, it looked like he was going to tell a story …
"Listen carefully … I am!" Feng Bujue took off his mask, and his words flowed out like a river. "On the top of Mount Tai, there is a pine tree, standing proudly in the sky. Not even eight thousand miles of wind can blow it down, not even nine thousand lightning can strike it down … "
He had just started and all the Mo soldiers and Mo generals present were stunned. Clearly, these fellows under Yuan Lu Zhi's command had not read the 《Sha Family Bang》 before.
"There is a saying … Laughing at the sky, watching thousands of soldiers break, planning the universe and calculating karma. Without feeling or fear, taking life and death, not a ghost, not a god, but a mad demon … "Brother Jue was far from finished." In the three realms, in the six paths, everyone knows of his name … "
"You are … Feng Bujue?"
But to his surprise, just as Brother Jue started his recital, Yi Da interrupted him and used a pained expression and a probing tone to ask this question.
"Hmm?" Brother Jue was startled. "So, you know me?"
"Phew …" Yi Da gave a long sigh. "So, it is really you …" He rolled his eyes toward the sky. "I have not met you before, but … from Lu Zhi's mouth … I have heard of your name, your poetic title, and some of your deeds …"
"What?" Feng Bujue was surprised. "Am I that famous already?"
"This is the saying, 'Good news never leaves the house, but bad news travels a thousand miles' …"
"You are indeed infamous, everyone knows about you …"
"By the way … why did we agree to help this guy sneak into the martial arts competition?"
"I have no idea … but I have a feeling it will be bad to become enemies with this kind of person … Er … just the thought of it gives me goosebumps …"
Before Yi Da could answer Brother Jue's question, his' companions' around him had already started this conversation … Therefore, even the demon soldiers who were idling at the bridgehead all turned to look at Brother Jue with condescension and disgust.
"In any case …" Yi Da's expression turned strange. He took half a step back and said, "Since you are Feng Bujue, then … you should go in …" He was an honest person, and he did not forget to add, "I do not wish to fight you …"
As someone who could be revived endlessly by the Demon King and was not even afraid of death, he did not wish to have too much to do with Brother Jue. This went to show that … Feng Bujue's reputation in the multiverse … was indeed problematic.
"Oh, okay then." But Brother Jue did not mind the reaction of the people around him. He shrugged and said, "If I had known I was so famous here, I wouldn't have disguised myself as someone else. To think I even came up with that kind of disguise that could pass off as real."
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about! Who would fall for that! " Yi Da wanted to yell that, but he held it in. Compared to getting involved with Brother Jue … he felt like it was more rational to suppress the urge to complain.
…
At the same time, at the stage of the martial arts competition under Guzhi City.
An intense battle was taking place on a wide stage.
Actually … the 'Musou Martial Arts Competition' organized by Yuanlu Zhi had started several days ago.
There was only one stage, and there was no such thing as' preliminary round, semi-final round, or final round '. The format of the competition was simple. For every round, the 'announcing statue' would randomly announce two names, and then the people who were called would enter the stage to fight. There was no time limit to the battle. It would end when one party died, surrendered, or lost the ability to fight. After the winner was decided, the winner could leave the stage to rest and wait for their name to be called again; the loser would not be called again, but they could still stay to watch the battle.
And so on and so forth … until there were only ten people left. Yuanlu Zhi would personally arrive, and then there would be a one versus ten final battle.
Regarding the rules and rules of the announcing statue … no one knew. The function of the lion head statue was to announce the result of every battle, and then it would announce the next battle and announce the start of the competition.
In this grand meeting, everyone who crossed the bridge and arrived at the side of the arena would be called at least once. If one felt that they were not strong enough and would be eliminated, they could surrender when they were called.
Of course, most people who came to this place would not do that. As the top experts in their own space-time, who didn't have some pride? Although everyone's ultimate goal was to defeat Yuanlu Zhi, how would they know who was strong and who was weak if they did not try?
In this space-time, it was hard to determine the strength of the characters. Logically speaking, how could a common face demon general like Flood Dragon be a match for Twelve Regrets Sword Monarch? In the World of Thunderclap, any third-rate minor character would be able to defeat Flood Dragon. However … in this place, some inconspicuous extras might be on par with those popular characters.
So … most of the experts who attended this competition had the mentality of 'learning from each other and discussing martial arts'. They did not know if they could stay until the end … the outcome of every battle was unknown.
However, not everyone came to the competition with this mentality. In the crowd, there were many arrogant and self-centered people … in their own universe, they played a role similar to Yuanlu Zhi. These people did not care about space-time disorder or the suffering of people … among them, some could not stand Yuanlu Zhi's arrogant behavior and were prepared to teach the Demon King a lesson. There were also some who were simply bloodthirsty and battle-thirsty. They lived for battle and came for battle. There were also some who only cared about pursuing their own cultivation realm. No matter how the world changed, they only wanted to find experts to test their tolerance …
In short, this martial arts competition … as the Demon King expected, it was very interesting.
When they came to a few hundred meters away from the stage, Xiao Tan pointed at the high platform in the distance and asked, "That is the stage of the martial arts competition, right?"
"That's right." Ping Qingsheng, who was walking in front of Xiao Tan, Sword Monarch, and Zhao Yun, replied, "This is the Unparalleled Martial Arts Stage that I personally built."
The Unparalleled Martial Arts Stage that he mentioned was located on a level slightly higher than the ground of Unparalleled Plain. It was a perfect circle with a radius of 200 meters. The material of the stage itself was no different from the stones in the Wasteland. However, after every battle, the stage would automatically restore itself in a very short period of time. The traces caused by the battle would be filled up. In addition, the entire stage was wrapped in a spherical barrier. The lower half of the barrier was like a bowl buried in the ground while the upper half was like a dome that covered the stage. This barrier was more powerful than the Inferno River Barrier around Gu Zhi City. Whether it was physical or mental interference (below a certain strength), it could not be penetrated. It not only ensured that the people below the stage could not secretly interfere with the outcome of the battle on the stage, but it also effectively prevented the people below from being accidentally injured by the fighters on the stage.
"Okay, the three of you, I'll stop here." After a few seconds, Ping Qingsheng said, "There will be more people in front. If others see you walking with me, I'm afraid it will cause misunderstandings."
"A straight foot is not afraid of a crooked shadow." Sword Lord replied in a deep voice, "We're just walking with you. The three of us have a clear conscience. We're not afraid of being misunderstood as the claws of Yuan Lu Zhi."
"Hehe …" Ping Qingsheng used his thunderous voice to laugh in a low voice, "Okay, then I'll take it that I'm overthinking. Goodbye!" After saying that, he turned into a huge demonic aura and flew straight into the sky, heading towards Gu Zhi City in the whirlpool.
"Then …" After Ping Qingsheng left, Xiao Tan looked in the direction of the stage and said, "… Let's go to the side of the stage and take a look?"
"Yes." Zhao Yun nodded and replied, "I've already seen a few familiar masters. I was just about to go over and pay them a visit."
"I've also seen a few seniors. I want to go over and say hello." Sword Lord said.
"Oh … Then I'll … Find a place and take a look?" Xiao Tan continued.
The three of them exchanged a few more words before heading in a different direction.
Within a few hundred meters of the stage, there were "spectators", or rather … contestants. Most of these people had excellent eyesight. They didn't need to crowd around the stage like they did when watching an open-air concert. These people were basically in groups of three to five, standing loosely on the wasteland, watching the battle from afar. Only a small number of people stood at the side of the stage, faintly forming a human wall that wasn't too tight.
"Hmm … Sister Yu has really come in …" Soon, Xiao Tan found Li Ruo Yu's figure in the audience.
Almost at the same second, Li Ruo Yu seemed to feel someone's gaze. She suddenly turned her head and cast a cold gaze at Xiao Tan.
"Uh …" Xiao Tan shivered under the glare. "How did you find me … Intuition … So scary …"
He didn't know that the scary thing had just begun …
"Hey, Wang Tanzhi." Suddenly, someone called Xiao Tan from behind and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah!" Before Xiao Tan recovered from Ruo Yu's murderous stare, he was patted without warning, and that scared him. "What? What? Who is it? " As he asked incoherently, he shook off his opponent's hand and abruptly turned around to retreat.
"Haha … Don't be nervous, it's me." Seven Kills looked at Xiao Tan's reaction and thought it was funny. "What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like a frightened bird? "
"Oh … It's you …" Xiao Tan sighed in relief, but half a second later, he sighed again. "That's not right! It's you and I who should be nervous! What do you want? Are you going to attack me before we even get on stage? "
Seven Kills shook his head with a smile. "What are you talking about? If I wanted to kill you off the stage, I could've done it when you were distracted. Why would I bother to greet you? "
"Hmm …" Because the man had a point, Xiao Tan had nothing to say.
"Don't worry," Seven Kills said straightforwardly. "The martial arts competition has a rule that no fighting is allowed off the stage. Those who break the rule will be disqualified and kicked out." He pointed to the sky. "After all, this is Guzhi City. Thousands of demonic soldiers and generals are right above us, and they can descend from the sky at any time. Even those godlike people around us don't dare to fight, so how would I dare to do it off the stage? "
"Oh …" This time, Xiao Tan was really relieved. "Hmm? By the way, where did you learn about the rule that no fighting is allowed? "
"The rule is on the stone tablet over there." As Seven Kills said that, he raised his finger to point at a giant rock about fifty meters away from the edge of the stage. "Let's go. I'll go with you to take a look, and … I want to talk to you."
