After some rest and settling their physiological problems, the group continued their journey.
Duan Yu didn't talk to Ma Wude and Mo Xiaofei about Buddhism anymore. Instead, he asked curiously,
"Fifth Master Ma, you've been talking about the Infinite Sword School's competition. Can you tell us more about it? I'm really curious."
Ma Wude said," You've finally said something human after such a long time." He immediately said excitedly,"
"Wuliang Sword Plain is divided into the East, North, and West Sects. The North Sect has been declining in the past few decades, but the East and West Sects are flourishing with talents.
After the three sects were divided into three, disciples of the three sects would compete in Sword Lake Palace every five years. The winning sect would stay in Sword Lake Palace for five years and compete again on the sixth year. Out of the five sword fights, the winner would be the one who won three.”
Duan Yu said,"
"So, they are using this method to fight for the position of the sect master of the Infinite Sword School?”
Ma Wude furrowed his brows and said in confusion,"
"This... I'm not sure. Not really. Even if they won the competition, the Eastern and Western Sects would still go their own way. The losing party would not obey the winning party.”
Duan Yu immediately said with disdain,"
"In that case, it's just a meaningless battle of courage and ruthlessness.。。。。。”
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Ma Wude's increasingly unhappy gaze and immediately shut his mouth in embarrassment.
Mo Xiaofei naturally knew why the Infinite Sword School was fighting. It was Wu Yazi's fault.
Back then, he and Li Qiu Shui lived in seclusion at the bottom of Wuliang Mountain. When the two of them were bored, they would compete with each other at the bottom of the mountain. At the bottom of Wuliang Mountain, there was a smooth as a mirror Wuliang Jade Wall.
Through the reflection of the sunlight, every move of their martial arts competition was reflected on the Immeasurable Jade Wall. The martial arts of the Carefree Sect were extraordinary.
One day, the people of the Infinite Sword School discovered it and were shocked. They felt that it was a blessing from the heavens, so they studied hard and actually established a sect.
Later on, as more and more disciples came, the disciples split up. In order to fight for the Infinite Jade Wall, they continued to learn from him, and that was why they competed every year.
At the end of the day, it was still greed!
Duan Yu saw that Ma Wude's expression was not good and immediately stopped talking. He changed the topic and asked,"
"Then which sect has won the most over the years?”
Ma Wude continued,"
"The North Sect won forty years ago and moved into the Sword Lake Palace. Five years later, they were defeated and left the palace. The sect master was furious and led his disciples to move to Shanxi.
In the past thirty-five years, the Eastern and Western Sects had won and lost. The East Sect won four times, and the West Sect won two times. Speaking of which, the East Sect is slightly better. This old man was also invited by the East Sect's sect master, Zuo Zimu, to attend the ceremony.”
Duan Yu understood. Although he didn't like martial arts, he liked crowds. When he heard that the Infinite Sword School had a tradition of thirty to forty years, he thought that it must be very lively. He was immediately fascinated.
With a thought in his heart, he would naturally watch the dish and eat. Next, he would only talk about some topics that Ma Wude liked to hear and would not mention anything about Buddhism.
He was afraid that Ma Wude would throw him away if he didn't let so many people in.
Ma Wude was indeed quite famous. When he arrived at the Infinite Sword School, most of the people from Yunnan who came to watch the ceremony would greet him with cupped fists. Even Zuo Zimu personally came to welcome him and arranged a seat for him.
As for Duan Yu and Mo Xiaofei, Zuo Zimu didn't even hold his fists. He just asked someone to add two seats. He had seen many rich young masters who liked to watch the fun.
Mo Xiaofei didn't have a weapon. He was wearing white clothes, holding a folding fan and wearing a ring of jewelry. Of course, he was regarded as a rich young master like Duan Yu.
People in the martial world hated the rich very much! This was the experience that Mo Xiaofei had gained over the years.
Afternoon!
Zuo Zimu of the East Sect and Xin Shuangqing of the West Sect both arrived at the Martial Arts Practice Hall. After a round of passionate speeches, the martial arts competition officially began.
Ma Wude, Duan Yu and the others were watching with great interest. Mo Xiaofei was also watching with great interest. However, he wasn't watching the two rookies pecking each other, but the girl on the beam.
The girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was dressed in green and had a smile like a flower. She had big eyes, a high nose bridge, a small mouth, and toot cheeks. She looked extremely cute.
She had been sitting on the beam since the beginning of the kung fu competition. When the competition started, she immediately started to watch it with great interest. However, she saw Mo Xiaofei after a few glances.
Mo Xiaofei knew that she was Zhong Ling, just like her name. She was a kind-hearted and pure girl.
Zhong Ling saw Mo Xiaofei, and Mo Xiaofei also saw Zhong Ling. Then, the two of them forgot about the group of people fighting below. They looked at each other.
Mo Xiaofei's eyes were bright, smiling.
Zhong Ling was a bit flustered by Mo Xiaofei's stare. She couldn't help but turn her head away. However, she couldn't help but turn back to look at Mo Xiaofei.
However, Mo Xiaofei's eyes were fixed on her, which made Zhong Ling's face heat up.
"How can you look at me like this? It's so embarrassing!”
However, Zhong Ling couldn't help but want to look at Mo Xiaofei. She felt that Mo Xiaofei's eyes were very beautiful, his smile was also very beautiful, and he was also very good-looking.
One person's gaze was burning, while the other's gaze was fleeting. The noisy martial arts hall seemed to have completely fallen silent, only leaving each other's eyes.
When one was fully focused on one thing, time always passed very quickly. Mo Xiaofei and Zhong Ling didn't think so. However, in the blink of an eye, the East and West Sect had already won two matches against the East Sect.
However, something unexpected happened during the third match.
When Gong Guangjie of the East Sect was competing with the disciples of the West Sect, he had used a technique called " Stumbling Step ". He had pretended to be defeated first and then fought back angrily. This was a technique that would put him in a desperate situation.
However, Duan Yu, who didn't know any martial arts, actually sneered when Gong Guangjie pretended to fail. He had offended Zuo Zimu, so he had to let Gong Guangjie spar with Duan Yu no matter what.
How could Duan Yu dare to accept it? But if you admit defeat, then so be it. However, the rejection was very unpleasant.
"Your master is your master, but your master is not my master. Your master might be able to influence you, but your master can't influence me.
Your master asked you to compete with him, and you've already done so. Your master asked me to compete with you, but I don't know how to do it. Secondly, I'm afraid of losing. Thirdly, I'm afraid of pain. Fourthly, I'm afraid of death. Therefore, I won't compete. If I say no, I mean it."
As soon as he said this, not only Gong Guangjie, but even Zuo Zimu's expression turned ugly. Especially when Xin Shuangqing, who had just lost the competition, mocked him, Zuo Zimu was even more embarrassed. Hence, he gave Gong Guangjie a look.
Gong Guangjie didn't waste any time and slapped him.
How could Duan Yu dodge it? Gong Guangjie slapped him on the face, and his face immediately turned red and swollen!
It was the sound of the slap that woke Mo Xiaofei up.
Frowning, Mo Xiaofei looked at Duan Yu discontentedly. He saw Duan Yu covering his face with his hands and looking wronged. Then he saw Gong Guangjie's angry face. He immediately understood what was going on.
He really couldn't do anything but spoil things!
