Seeing that the order had been given, Qingkong Yihe turned his head and glanced at Matsumoto Takeyoshi before withdrawing the spiritual energy from the Black Feather Blade.
Weng …
As soon as the spiritual energy was withdrawn, the black light wrapped around the Black Feather Blade began to slowly recede.
Shua …
With a thought, the Frost Dragon Sword in Ye Fan's hand, which was glowing with a silver light, disappeared into thin air.
The two of them glanced at each other before retracting their hands that were clasped together.
They had no choice but to obey Matsumoto Takeyoshi's orders.
Cha cha cha …
Seeing the two powerhouses withdraw their moves, the helpers standing beside them also withdrew their moves.
San Tong sheathed his blade and Akatsuki also sheathed her Phoenix Wing Blade.
Shua …
Chi Yao's hand loosened and the Bone Eroding Sword instantly turned into a pale white light and disappeared into thin air.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi's words stopped the chaotic battle that was about to break out.
"A test is a test. Everyone speaks based on their abilities. If you're not as good as others, then you have to accept defeat," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said with a gloomy expression. "You're all famous figures. How can you be like a woman and speak without thinking?"
Matsumoto Takeyoshi's words were full of deep meaning.
He blamed Solitary Crane in the Clear Sky for making a mountain out of a molehill because his Senior Brother's skill was not as good as his. He also warned Chi Yao not to make sarcastic remarks and look down on others because of his cultivation.
As for Ye Fan, Matsumoto Takeyoshi didn't think he did anything wrong.
If he didn't step in, Qingkong Yihe and Chi Yao would inevitably fight.
Both of them were top experts. If they really fought, it was unknown who would win.
As the saying goes, when two tigers fight, one is bound to be injured.
No matter who won, it wasn't a good thing for Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
He was in need of manpower and couldn't let his subordinates turn against each other. Otherwise, there would be too much internal friction.
Moreover, once the two of them fought, the remaining Four Boys and Akatsuki wouldn't just sit by and watch!
They would directly draw their swords and join the chaotic battle!
If that happened, Ship Wuji would be very lively.
There were only a dozen or so experts. If half of them fought, how embarrassing would that be?
This wasn't what Matsumoto Takeyoshi was most worried about.
If the two sides fought, would the remaining experts stand on their own and support both sides?
This wasn't impossible.
Onigirō and Bamu Changqing had a good relationship with Ye Fan. Kamehameha and Shinichi Funakoshi were also very close with Ye Fan's side. so, if the two sides fought, these four people would most likely join Ye's team!
On the other side, there were quite a lot of helpers!
The blue-clothed man, Kakashi Sato, had always been on bad terms with Ye Fan. However, he had a good relationship with Green Eye Boy. Once the two sides fought, he would definitely stand on the side of the Five Boys. Although Jogo Yokoyama and Tsuyoshi Fujita were cautious, they had always been unhappy with Chi Yao's arrogance. If they fought, the two of them would definitely attack Chi Yao!
If this continued, there wouldn't be many of these experts who had been painstakingly recruited left!
As the leader, Matsumoto Takeyoshi couldn't be biased. Otherwise, not only would it not solve the problem, it would also intensify the conflict!
Once someone made the first move, it would most likely lead to a group battle!
The best way to solve this problem was to punish both sides 50 times each.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi's words were indeed brilliant.
Both sides were very satisfied with Matsumoto Takeyoshi's way of handling this.
After all, both sides were in the wrong.
Chi Yao shouldn't have cursed and insulted Green Eye Boy, and Qingkong Yihe shouldn't have attacked the other party when the other party hadn't made a move yet.
In the blink of an eye, the tense atmosphere suddenly eased up.
"Mr. Chi Yao, please watch your words in the future. No matter how high your cultivation is, you should pay attention to your morals. Mr. Ichikaku, please pay attention to the situation in the future and control your emotions. Today is a sword test, not a fight," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said sternly. "If the two of you want to settle your personal grudges, please arrange a time alone and go somewhere else to settle it. You can fight however you want. Even if you kill each other, I have no objections."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi's words were as sharp as a knife.
"Mr. Matsumoto, I will pay attention," Chi Yao frowned and said to Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
At this point, he couldn't continue to be unreasonable.
After all, Ye Fan had stepped forward to help him, and he couldn't not appreciate it.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi gave him a way out, and he had to accept it.
"Mr. Matsumoto, I apologize for my reckless behavior just now!"
Haruko Ichiru turned around and lowered his head in apology to Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
He also felt the seriousness of the matter.
"And the few of you," Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at the three Japanese Tomes and Akatsuki. "It's fine if you don't stop the fight, but you actually added fuel to the fire and pulled out your swords to help. What, do you think I don't exist? Do you want to rebel? "
Matsumoto Takeyoshi's tone began to become cold.
"We don't dare!"
Seeing Matsumoto Takeyoshi's unfriendly tone, the three Japanese Tomes immediately knelt on one knee and lowered their heads.
They knew Matsumoto Takeyoshi's temper.
When his own son made a mistake, he dared to pull out his sword and kill him, let alone them!
"We don't dare." Akatsuki also knelt on one knee and said.
"I'll let it go this time," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said coldly, "If there's a next time, it won't be this island that will be split in half."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi said as he looked at the other masters three feet away.
His words were meant for them as well.
"Yes … Yes!" The three Japanese Tomes hurriedly replied.
"Yes, Mr. Matsumoto," Akatsuki replied.
"Get up." Matsumoto Takeyoshi's tone became gentler.
"Thank you, Mr. Matsumoto," the four said in unison and stood up.
"Continue to test the blade," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said as he slowly turned around and faced the island.
Since the storm had passed, the Black Feather Blade should continue to be tested.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi never had the habit of giving up halfway.
"Yes," Qingkong Yihe said as he slowly walked to the bow of the ship.
After arriving at the bow of the ship, Qingkong Yihe held the blade in one hand and stood against the wind.
The sea breeze blew, and the snow-white crane cloak on his body fluttered in the wind.
The masters were silent as they stared at Qingkong Yihe without blinking.
This was a top-notch master, a master among masters!
There was no need to guess. Qingkong Yihe would go all out this time to save face for the green-eyed Tomes, win back the honor of the Five Japanese Tomes, and crush Chi Yao's arrogance!
The green-eyed Tomes, who was sitting cross-legged and recuperating, looked straight at Qingkong Yihe at the bow of the ship with a complicated gaze.
The current situation was that no matter who got the helmet, he had lost all his face.
As the leader of the Five Japanese Tomes, he actually needed his fifth junior brother, Qingkong Yihe, to stand up for him. It was embarrassing. Before he took out the blade, he said that he would show the masters the real blade technique, but in the end, he was slapped in the face by Chi Yao. It was embarrassing. If Qingkong Yihe won the helmet this time and gave the Black Feather Blade to him, he would not have the face to own the Black Feather Blade. It was embarrassing. If Qingkong Yihe did not win the helmet, it would be even more embarrassing!
What made him feel even more ashamed was that this was the second time that Qingkong Yihe stood up for him!
He wanted to show his face every time, but in the end, it was not his face that was exposed, but his butt.
Not only did he embarrass himself, but he also embarrassed the Five Japanese Tomes!
He suddenly felt that he was a complete failure!
In terms of stature, he was the shortest among the masters. He was less than four feet tall. In terms of appearance, he was extremely ugly. Compared to the handsome Bufan Onigirō, the dignified Bamu Changqing, the handsome Ye Fan, and the elegant Chi Yao, there was a world of difference. In terms of cultivation, the forbidden technique that he used all his strength to display was not as good as the casual blade of others. In terms of status, Matsumoto Takeyoshi ignored him and turned a blind eye to him. He did not even take him seriously. Even his luck was not as good as others! Since he came to the Great Ming Dynasty, bad luck seemed to have been following him like a shadow, inseparable from him! No matter how hard he tried, no matter how much he schemed, in the end, he was still the unlucky one!
This made him involuntarily think of the famous Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin's eternal sigh from the Three Kingdoms period — Since Yu was born, why was Liang born?
At this moment, the green-eyed boy was extremely ashamed. He wished he could find a hole to hide in!
If he had to choose again, he would rather stay in Japan and focus on cultivation than take half a step into the Great Ming Dynasty!
The Great Ming Dynasty was not as simple as a place with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It was simply a group of dragons and tigers!
Jinchan, the Five Elements Expert, Chi Yao, and Ye Fan. Which one of them was not a top-notch master?
Buzz …
Just as the green-eyed boy felt that the heavens were blind and that his fate was unfair, Qingkong Yihe, who was standing at the bow of the ship, began to move!
He, who was wearing a cloak, took a deep breath and then closed his eyes slightly.
Whoosh …
The moment Crane in the Clear Sky closed his eyes, the sea breeze that was still howling and surging suddenly stopped!
In an instant, the sea was calm and quiet to the extreme!
Whoosh …
The fluttering robes of the masters also stopped!
However, what made people feel strange was that the Crane in the Clear Sky's snow-white cloak was still fluttering in the wind, making flapping sounds!
When the masters saw this, they frowned and were puzzled.
Why did the sea breeze suddenly stop?
At this moment, Qingkong Yihe had not activated his spiritual power. Why was his robe fluttering?
The masters could not understand.
When they saw the scene in front of them, Chi Yao, who was standing beside Ye Fan, instantly changed his expression!
His eyes widened, and his face was filled with disbelief!
"What's going on?"
Ye Fan, who was standing beside Chi Yao, felt that something was wrong with Chi Yao and asked Chi Yao.
"Wind … It's the wind …" Chi Yao's face turned pale as he muttered to himself.
"Wind?" Ye Fan frowned. "What's wrong with the wind?"
"All the wind above the East Sea has been absorbed into his body …" Chi Yao said with a pale face.
What!
Chi Yao's words made Ye Fan's pupils shrink instantly, and his expression changed greatly!
Qingkong Yihe could actually use the power of the wind for himself!
It was no wonder that the howling sea breeze had suddenly stopped!
Ye Fan looked at the crane in the clear sky and his heart was filled with shock!
Earth, Water, Fire, Wind.
Among the four elements, earth and water were things that could be seen and touched. Fire was something that could be seen but not touched. Wind was something that could neither be seen nor touched. It was one of the most difficult techniques to cultivate!
