"Second Great Uncle, get up and get to work …"
Li Yi stood beside a rocking chair in the courtyard and urged the old man who was lying there.
Light snoring sounds came from the rocking chair. The old man seemed to be asleep and did not hear what he said. He turned over and snored even louder.
He was old and should exercise more. What was the point of lying down all the time? Li Yi opened a paper bag in his hand and tore off a chicken drumstick to take a bite. He then walked out of the courtyard.
Before he stepped out of the door, his hand suddenly felt empty. He turned around and saw Second Great Uncle holding a chicken drumstick. He looked at him and said, "Good lad, you don't know how to show filial respect to the old man first when you have something good."
Li Yi said as he walked out, "The Heroes Conference is starting today. Second Great Uncle, come over after you finish this chicken. Ruyi and Ruyi are already waiting."
"I'll be coming …" The old man got up from the rocking chair and wiped his mouth. He grumbled, "Why do you have to let an old man like me get involved in the affairs of the young? If anything happens to my old arms and legs, I'm afraid I'll have to find two old women to take care of me in the future …"
…
…
The Heroes Conference took more than three months to prepare for and hold.
Speaking of which, most of the time was spent on the Heaven List. This was because only by entering the Heaven List would one have the chance to fight for the position of Alliance Leader. This highlighted the importance of the Martial Arts World's Must-Fight List. Every day, there would be new and unknown talents appearing, but they would only appear for a short while and be quickly replaced by others.
Compared to three months ago, more than half of the names on the Heaven Ranking List had changed. More and more powerful players had joined in. Some of the names that everyone was familiar with finally began to appear frequently on the list. Now, the Chivalry Ranking List had finally become the Chivalry Ranking List of the entire World of Martial Arts.
A large empty space that occupied a large area had long been cleared. In the middle was an arena that was as tall as a person. A large empty space was cleared around it. Further away was a spectator stand.
Besides, there were a large number of temporary tents in the surroundings. Food and other things were sold in them. There were also some tents for people to rest in.
The real competition had yet to begin. Many martial artists from all walks of life were chatting and laughing with each other. However, none of the famous martial artists from the Heavenly Ranking List were seen.
As for the format of the competition, it was based on the second Hero Conference in "The Return of the Condor Heroes". Any expert on the Heavenly List could go up the stage. Each round was limited to two people, and the loser would lose the right to fight for the position of Alliance Leader. When there were no more challengers, the person standing on the stage would be the winner.
However, the Heaven List was just a threshold. The experts on the Heaven List had a huge disparity in strength. Most people were just there to serve as foils. They did not even think about fighting for the position of Alliance Leader. They just wanted to use this opportunity to spar with the world's experts. After all, it was hard to find a real opponent. They could not find such an opportunity in the past.
A few people walked over slowly. Lü Luo introduced these things to them. From time to time, people from the Liu League came up to greet them. Miss.Liu was the leader of the Liu League. As for Ruyi, although she rarely cared about those things, she was a Grandmaster. In the martial arts world, strength was everything. She would be respected wherever she went.
Ruyi still occupied the first place on the Heaven List. No one would have the guts to challenge a Grandmaster. The second place was Miss.Liu. As long as she did not meet a Grandmaster, she was almost invincible.
"There are no Grandmasters on the Heaven List, right?" Li Yi turned around and asked Lü Luo.
"I don't think so." Lü Luo shook his head and said.
The number of experts in the Jianghu could be counted on one's fingers. How could it be so easy to meet them? When one reached that level, which one of them did not have an indifferent temperament and pursue a higher level? Why would they participate in the Heroes' Assembly?
He had been worried that a Grandmaster would come to make trouble, but now it seemed that his worries were completely unnecessary.
"If not, then …" Li Yi was relieved, but before he could finish his sentence, he saw a middle-aged Daoist nun walk out of a tent. She glanced in his direction, and her gaze froze for a moment before she turned and left.
Li Yi pointed at Taoist Nun. Lü Luo glanced at her and said, "She only showed up once in Qing 'an Prefecture. She defeated a master who was in the top ten of the Heaven List and was ranked fifth. Although the top ten of the Heaven List changes frequently these days, considering her strength, she is currently ranked fifteenth."
Li Yi turned around and looked at Ruyi. She shook her head and said, "Since she is here, I'm afraid she is determined to win the League Leader. Ruyi is no match for her. When the time comes, I'll go."
"Are you sure you can win?" Li Yi looked at her and asked.
Ruyi shook her head and said, "I'm not sure I can win. It's only fifty-fifty."
A battle between Grandmasters must be very dangerous. If you didn't have a hundred percent chance of winning, then don't go. Li Yi pulled Second Great Uncle, who was standing there dozing off, and said, "Second Great Uncle, Chili Chicken, White Cut Chicken, Beggar's Chicken, Cola Chicken, Salt Baked Chicken, Saliva Chicken, Yellow Braised Chicken, and Boy's Chicken are different every day. I'll leave the Taoist nun to you."
The old man raised his head and looked at Li Yi in disbelief. He asked, "There are so many ways to cook chicken?"
Li Yi nodded and said, "There are eighty-one ways to cook chicken, and I guarantee it won't be the same. One every day, and it will be enough for you to eat until next year."
Second Great Uncle narrowed his eyes and seemed to be thinking. At this moment, a slightly anxious voice came from the side.
A young man stopped in front of a hunchbacked, sloppy old man and said, "Senior, only experts on the Heaven List can enter this place. Please take a rest over there."
A strange smile appeared on the old man's face. He said, "Heaven List? What's that? There's no lack of good food or drinks here, but there's nothing on the other side. Get out of the way, I want to watch the show after I'm full! "
The young man said, "You must enter the Heaven List and get a token to enter."
A middle-aged man walked out of the tent and asked with a frown, "Who's making noise outside?"
"What token?" the old man asked.
The young man pointed to the token on the middle-aged man's waist and said, "Just like this."
The old man waved his hand and said to the middle-aged man, "In that case, this token is mine."
He reached out to the middle-aged man's waist. The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted. A trace of anger appeared on his face, and he grabbed the old man's wrist.
The next moment, he felt a shadow appear in front of him, and at the same time, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He grunted and took a few steps back. His face was pale, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He looked at the old man with shock in his eyes.
"How is this possible?" Lu Luo's expression changed, and he murmured, "Pang Hui is eighteenth on the Heaven List, but …"
A trace of surprise also appeared on Ruyi's face. "Another one …"
Li Yi was stunned, and he thought of something, and for a moment, he was stunned on the spot.
It can't be, two Grandmasters are making such a big deal this time?
The old man played with the token in his hand and looked at the young man. "Can I go in now?"
The young man swallowed and said, "Yes …"
…
…
"It should be Xu Freak."
Inside a tent, Lu Luo put down a thin book in his hand with a worried expression and said, "Including Miss Liu, there are currently six known grandmasters in the martial arts world. The others disappeared more than ten years ago. During these ten years, there was occasionally news of them. Only this Old Freak Xu is a man of both good and evil and has left behind many deeds in Jianghu. Although he rarely kills people, many famous masters in Jianghu have had their martial arts crippled by him. When people in Jianghu run into him, they generally avoid him."
He sighed and said in a worried tone, "Taoist Nun is already a Grandmaster. If Xu Freak disturbs the situation, we will no longer be able to control the situation."
"I wonder if Second Great Uncle can deal with two Grandmasters alone?" Li Yi thought to himself. Just in case, he should ask the old man first. When he turned around, he was suddenly stunned.
"Second Great Uncle!"
