Chapter 26: The Eight Moves and Mastery of Knife Techniques!

  Xin Xue Mountain Villa Challenge Platform

  Feng Pinghuo is furious!

  Damn Gu Chao, previously said he was a horse face like a horse, grasping this weakness to attack. Now he claims to be able to defeat himself in twenty moves or ten moves, how detestable. Feng Pinghuo's most hated person is undoubtedly Gu Chao, he can't wait to chop Gu Chao into pieces. Feng Pinghuo tightly gripped the handle of the red copper long knife: "Gu Chao, you're asking for death."

  Whoosh! A flash of light from the blade, and the crimson copper long knife had already been drawn out of its scabbard.

  He made a move, and it was one of the seventy-two moves, a crazy wind blowing across the border, full of his anger, striking Gu Chao directly.

  Gu Chao swung his hand and launched a move called "One Leaf Obstructs the Eye", which was an excellent defensive technique and one of the 72 forms.

  Right!

  Two crimson copper long knives clashed in mid-air, and Gu Chao retreated a few steps back.

  Feng Ping's eyes widened involuntarily, for in their previous exchange, he had sensed that Gu Chao's internal energy was not at the early stage of the Post-Heaven Realm's third layer, but rather at the early stage of the fourth layer. Gu Chao's internal energy had actually increased to such a great extent, reaching the early stage of the fourth layer of the Post-Heaven Realm. However, what did that matter? He himself was already at the late stage of the fourth layer of the Post-Heaven Realm, and Gu Chao would only be defeated by him.

  Just as Feng Pinghuo thought he had won, Gu Chao suddenly counterattacked with a single knife thrust to the heart. This move was exquisite and took advantage of Feng Pinghuo's weakness. Feng Pinghuo hastily raised his long knife to block the attack, but Gu Chao's next knife came again, aiming at Feng Pinghuo's weak point once more.

  Because the owners of Xue Shan Zhuang all learned the 72 Roads of Knife Methods, gradually everyone liked to attack each other's weaknesses in switching moves when they were fighting. Feng Pinghuo was caught twice by Gu Chao and attacked twice, feeling annoyed, you can catch my weakness, why can't I catch your weakness? Everyone has weaknesses between move combinations. Feng Pinghuo was angry and wanted to catch Gu Chao's weakness, just as Gu Chao switched from the 7th move to the 37th move, he waited for the opportunity to attack, but found no way to catch the weakness because Gu Chao had no weakness when switching moves.

  What's going on? Feng Ping was shocked and puzzled.

  But there was no time for him to continue being strange, Gu Chao's next knife came again, still taking his broken weakness, he was attacked by a linked attack into the weakness, extremely embarrassed, so far Gu Chao had already launched three moves.

  Gu Chao's fourth move, Gale Force, directly targeted Feng Pinghuo's weakness and went for it. Feng Pinghuo was hit by a series of attacks, his disadvantage growing bigger and bigger, his weaknesses becoming more and more apparent.

  Great!

  Gu Chao launched another fierce tiger pounce, directly targeting Feng Pinghuo's weakness. Feng Pinghuo was already at a great disadvantage, and now he was hit by this powerful move on his left shoulder, bleeding profusely. This was the fifth move. Feng Pinghuo wanted to counterattack, but he couldn't find Gu Chao's weakness, while Gu Chao kept attacking his.

  Gu Chao's move was as light as a feather, but it contained a deadly strike. This was the sixth move, and Feng Pinghuo was now injured and caught off guard, making him even more disheartened. Gu Chao's advantage grew greater and greater, and on the surface, he was dominating the fight with an air of invincibility, pinning down Feng Pinghuo who had no power to counterattack.

  Gu suddenly drew his sword, this was the thirty-seventh move "Mountain Water Straight Down", and then he directly grasped Feng Pinghuo's weakness and went for it, this was the seventh move. This move "Mountain Water Straight Down" originally had its form in the upper position, but suddenly fell down, just like a mountain torrent falling straight down, hence the name. With one move, Gu struck and cut down Feng Pinghuo's right thigh with a loud crash, fresh blood splashing everywhere.

  Gu Chao made another swift move, and the long red copper knife was already placed horizontally in front of Feng Pinghuo's throat.

  The outcome is already decided, Gu Chao wins.

  And, it was won with just eight moves.

  Eight Trigrams!

  The opponent was Feng Pinghuo, who was in the fourth layer of the Post-Heaven Realm. Among the sixty-one disciples at Xin Xue Mountain Villa, he was considered to be moderately strong.

  As a result, he encountered Gu Chao, ranked fifty-ninth, and was surprisingly defeated by the fifty-ninth-ranked Gu Chao in eight moves.

  Countless onlookers widened their eyes or opened their mouths, all of them shocked by this reality to the point where they could hardly speak.

  Before the battle, Gu Chao said: "Oh, sorry about that. I was just lost in thought for a moment. I was thinking, how many moves should I use to defeat Feng Pinghuo? Should I give him some face and use twenty moves to defeat him with some camaraderie, or not give him much face and seriously end the battle in ten moves? I got so caught up in my thoughts that I spaced out for a moment and didn't notice the battle was about to start. Sorry, everyone." At the time, everyone thought Gu Chao had gone crazy or his brain had turned to mush, but now, Gu Chao has proven with facts that he wasn't being foolish at all, this is real.

  Gǔ Chāo's hand firmly grasped the crimson copper long knife, its tip piercing Feng Pinghuo's throat: "Feng Pinghuo, I originally thought it would take ten moves to settle this fight. But you're even more useless than I imagined - it only took eight moves to solve the problem. I overestimated you."

  Feng Pinghu was already ashamed and angry because of his failure in the Eight Trigrams, now he is even more depressed and wants to kill himself.

  "The third battle of the Three Battles, Gu Chao wins."

  "The results of the three battles were: Gao Ren won the first battle, Feng Pinglin won the second battle, and Gu Chao won the third battle. Gao Ren, Luo Tao, and Gu Chao each won two out of three battles, securing a victory for Dormitory 7."

  "Haha, I won." Gao Ren laughed triumphantly.

  "Good job, Gu Chao." Luo Tao also laughed.

  "No way, running into the three stinky brothers of the Feng family, if I don't hit back hard, I'd feel like I owe it to myself." Gu Chao also laughed out loud, and the three people's right hands slapped each other in mid-air, making a crisp slapping sound. The three looked at each other and smiled, yeah, we won.

  Feng family's three brothers have new and old grudges, the new grudge is the rivalry for Gao Ren's affection, as brothers they must take sides. The old grudge was when Feng family's three brothers snatched the Moonlight Grass, injured three people from the Seventh Dormitory, and even turned the tables, saying that the three people from the Seventh Dormitory had stolen theirs. This resentment has been suppressed in their hearts for a long time, but now it is finally released.

  New grudges and old hatreds are avenged at the same time, and at this moment, it is extremely pleasant.

  Of course, Gu Chao also had another delightful factor!

  Gǔ Chāo was originally a character who always won in his past life, but after this life, he repeatedly failed. The reason for this is still because of his own poor martial arts skills. Five consecutive failures at the end of the month's small test are a great shame for Gǔ Chāo.

  In Xue Shan Zhuang, no matter who it is, they all think that Gu Chao is a supporting role.

  But now, Gu Chao formally declared that he is not a supporting role, he is very strong in Xue Shan Zhuang, and it's like the grievances of five months were released at once. The feeling now is only the pleasure after the explosion, refreshing to the extreme!

  From now on, I will become stronger and stronger.

  Especially at the end of the year, during the mid-term exams, I will perform even stronger than now. This current battle is just an appetizer, but the end-of-year exams are my true stage for performance.

  Gu Chao carried a long red copper knife on his shoulder and looked up at the sky.

  Clouds, still so far away.

  The sky is still so high.

  However, after this victory, I have more confidence in myself, and I will eventually stand at the end of the clouds, the top of heaven!

  Definitely!

  One chapter delivered in the morning, suddenly it's already September. I will continue to work hard, Gu Chao will also continue to work hard. Please collect and vote for recommendation tickets, thank you.
