"Congratulations, Your Highness, for obtaining the assistance of such a talented person like Brother Hong." When Jing Yuxing saw that Hong Yi agreed in one breath, a smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Hong, don't forget that we still have a bet."
Suddenly, the Changle Marquis, Xiao Hao, spoke.
"How could I forget? Little Marquis must have mastered his martial arts and wants to win back the Lightning Chasing Horse. What are we competing in today? Are we going to compete in archery or martial arts? "
Hong Yi looked at Xiao Hao leisurely. These days, he had used the Amitabha Sutra as his axis to practice Demon Ox's Fist of Great Strength, Heavenly Wrapping Hands, and the balance of Yin and Yang. His body had completely improved and was better than all elixirs. His martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds and he had already stepped into the realm of a Martial Warrior.
In terms of actual combat skills, Hong Yi even felt that he was comparable to a Martial Master. After all, he practiced the secret arts of Daizen Temple and Xuantian Hall.
Of course, if he used Taoist techniques to drive the blood-patterned steel needle, he could even kill three to five Martial Masters wearing iron armor!
The blood-patterned steel needle could appear and disappear unpredictably. It could kill people without leaving a trace. This was the power of Taoist techniques.
The martial arts of the Young Marquis of Changle, Xiao Hao, were not particularly strong. Back when they had been sparring, Xiao Hao had been defeated by him. Although several months had passed and Xiao Hao had been training hard, Xiao Hao's progress had been even greater. Hong Yi was confident that no matter what, Xiao Hao was no match for him.
"Of course it's battlefield martial arts. In Wang Ye's mansion, there is a training ground where horses can run. How about we compete on the battlefield with sabers, spears, swords, and staffs? If I win this match, you will return my horse to me. If you win, I will give you my Warm Jade Thumb Ring. My Warm Jade Thumb Ring is a Qilin Jade Thumb Ring used by the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is worth a thousand taels of gold. "
Xiao Hao laughed and looked at Hong Yi.
Hong Yi could also see the confidence in his eyes. His heart thumped.
"Good!"
Yang Qian clapped his hands and laughed, "I'm a prince born on horseback and I also like martial arts on horseback the most. I don't like those flowery but impractical moves of the pugilistic world. Left and right, bring out your armors, sabers, and spears. You two can choose whatever you like. "
On the training field.
Xiao Hao put on a set of shiny fish scale armor and held an iron spear in his hand. He rode on a horse that looked like a black dragon. It was completely black and shiny, and it was also covered in armor.
This was also a famous horse, Yun Meng's "Dark Blood Horse". It was the horse used by Yun Meng's invincible "Iron Stupa" cavalry.
The most powerful cavalry in the world, the Iron Stupa, was this kind of Dark Blood Horse!
Xiao Hao was clad in fish scale armor, horse armor, and a long spear. Under the sunlight, he looked as imposing as a mountain.
As for Hong Yi, he was also equipped with the same fish scale armor. However, he did not hold a spear in his hand, but a metal rod. A metal rod that weighed at least 40 kilograms.
He wasn't adept at using a spear, but he was very familiar with stick techniques. Nothing else, he had already familiarized himself with his "Demonic Ape God Confusion Stick" after sparring with Shen Tiezhu every day.
Hong Yi wielded his cudgel and wore an iron horse and iron armor. He was fully armed as he faced Xiao Hao. His blood suddenly surged in his heart. This was a true man's blood boiling as he charged on the battlefield.
Slowly raising the metal rod with both hands, Hong Yi entered the realm of spirit and body as one. He was as steady as a god. As he raised the long metal rod, Lightning Chasing Horse's hooves tapped lightly on the ground, ready to charge at any time. It was as if a huge mountain was about to collapse in front of him!
At this moment, Hong Yi and Lightning Chasing Horse felt as if their flesh and blood were connected.
The two of them were completely connected.
Over the past few days, Hong Yi would occasionally leave his body to communicate with Lightning Chasing Horse. The man and horse had established a complete trust in each other. Although Lightning Chasing Horse was not as smart as the little fox and could not comprehend Daoist techniques or practice martial arts, Hong Yi firmly believed that one day, he would be able to fully develop its intelligence. He might even become a powerful demon, but that was still unknown.
Even before the duel began, Hong Yi had already gained the upper hand in terms of their auras.
Xiao Hao also felt that something was wrong. He fiercely gritted his teeth and clamped his legs together. Suddenly, there was a whirlwind, and the horse was completely spurred on.
Ten steps!
Twenty steps!
Forty steps!
In the blink of an eye, the Dark Blood Horse had crossed the distance of fifty steps. Its speed was at its maximum, and the metal armor on its body was like a wild beast's fur was standing on end. This feeling was like an armored wild beast was launching its strongest attack.
"Go!"
Almost at the same time, Hong Yi shouted. The Lightning Chasing Horse under him also moved. It was like the wind and lightning, and its hooves were like thunder. The flat martial arts field was flat, and the horse left deep footprints!
In an instant, the two steeds brushed past each other, and the spear and rod clashed!
With a loud roar, Hong Yi used the Bull Roar of the Demon Ox's Fist of Great Strength. He channeled his strength through his arms, and with a "Demon Ape Breaks the Mountain", he ruthlessly struck the spear.
Bang!
The spear was bent in an instant, and then flew high into the sky. The straight spear flew into the sky like a bow!
After smashing the spear, Hong Yi conveniently used the "Demon Ape Stirs the Sea", and the metal rod swung to the left, hitting Xiao Hao's armor.
Bang!
Xiao Hao's huge body was sent flying into the air, and he landed heavily on the ground.
The impact of the two men and horses was unbelievably strong.
Suddenly, a figure appeared. Before Xiao Hao landed on the ground, the figure grabbed the armor, spun it twice, and neutralized the force, then placed it on the ground.
The one who received him was Prince Yu Yang Qian.
This movement was as fast as lightning, and even Hong Yi did not see it clearly.
"Good fellow, Prince Yu is at least an expert who has entered the Xiantian realm. Maybe, maybe even stronger!" Hong Yi reined in his horse, stopped, and jumped off to take off his armor.
"Little Marquis, I've offended you." Hong Yi saw Xiao Hao's pale face after taking off his armor, and he hurriedly said with a smile. Although his rod technique was ferocious, both of them were wearing armor, and there was also soft armor under the armor. Xiao Hao was sent flying, but he did not suffer any internal injuries.
"I didn't expect Brother's martial arts to be so powerful!" Xiao Hao gasped.
Having his spear knocked away by Hong Yi, and now he was sent flying with another strike, Xiao Hao had no choice but to admit defeat.
As he panted, he took off the ring on his thumb.
"Hey!" Hong Yi blocked it with his hand. "Little Marquis, you're treating me like an outsider. We're both friends with Wang Ye now, and we're making friends through martial arts today. I'm not greedy for money."
"I, Xiao Hao, have never reneged on a bet. Brother, are you looking down on me?" Xiao Hao's face turned cold when he saw that Hong Yi would not accept it.
"A gentleman does not take what others like." Hong Yi said, "But I want the stake. I took your Lightning Chaser horse, and if I can exchange this ring for something, Little Marquis, give me the groom who originally served the horse. Also, Little Marquis, if you have any extra servants, arrange a few for me. Wang Ye gave me the manor, and I'm afraid I won't have enough people to manage it."
"That's great." Hearing Hong Yi's words, Xiao Hao laughed and took back the ring. "It just so happens that my four groom for the Lightning Chaser horse are idle. I also have a dozen or so men who were cut from the army and don't know how to farm, and only know how to eat. I'll give them to you as servants."
