Chapter 82: Leisurely Enjoying the Flowers

  Xian Le is a girl with a very high ponytail, looking pretty and smiling, waving to the audience who shouted her name. The audience applauded warmly, and many people shouted "Xian Le, Xian Le", but not in unison, because some called "Xianle" while others called "Xianyue".

  The wind blew and asked One Sword to the Sky, who replied: "I don't know her at all, how would I know?!" Then he winked and whispered: "Go ask your crosstalk partner!" The wind's face turned red again.

  The outcome of this game has already been decided, at least in terms of momentum. Xian Le has won over the majority of the audience with her personal charm, and everyone is cheering her on.

  Her smile still lingered on her face as she slowly drew out her sword, the Huanhua Sword, which had a place in the roll of arms, its tip pointing to the ground. Her left hand then elegantly made a inviting gesture towards her opponent.

  The gentle breeze had completely absorbed the leisurely style of the wind, and had forgotten to ask about her opponent's surname and origin.

  Her elegance is not just about fame and popularity, but also a manifestation of her confidence. Her calm and composed movements exude an overwhelming aura. In contrast, her opponents appear hesitant, uncertain, and indecisive...

  Leisurely seeing the opponent hesitating and unwilling to make a move, he had no choice but to take the initiative himself. The sword tip slanted towards the front, its edge pointing at the ground. The sword move looked gentle, as if it was just brushing against a soft breeze. The wind whispered softly, wondering how such a soft and fluffy move could knock someone down? Suddenly, Bai Xiaosheng asked everyone: "Do you know what 'huàn' in Huàn Huā Jiàn ( Washing Flower Sword) means?"

  The wind whispered, shaking his head in ignorance. Although others didn't speak up, they all conveyed the same meaning. Only Wanshitong sneered and said with a sarcastic tone: "I've only seen this character in one word - 'xǐ' from 'xǐ xióng' (raccoon dog)!"

  Bai Xiaosheng ignored him and answered himself: "Huan has the meaning of washing, huan flower can be understood as washing flowers!"

  "What's with the flowers?" Feng Xiao Xiao repeated, still not understanding what he meant by asking this question.

  "Right! Washing flowers!" Bai Xiaosheng emphasized again, and then opened his mouth to talk endlessly: "Flowers are extremely fragile and easily damaged. Washing flowers requires a great deal of strength, but if it's too small, it can't achieve the purpose of cleaning. Therefore, when washing flowers, a kind of hidden strength is often used!"

  "Dark and powerful!" The wind whispered again, repeating the two words, with a hint of duet-like flavor between the two.

  "Right! Hidden strength! It's another layer of power hidden beneath the surface, and its effect is to cancel out the excess power used in washing flowers!" Bai Xiaosheng explained, his eyes flashing as he continued: "Think about it, if this method were used in battle, at first using hidden strength to eliminate some of the power, confusing the enemy, and then suddenly releasing all the power when actually engaging, the result is predictable!"

  The result is not to be thought, just look at the scene and you will know. The members of Tieqi Alliance often appear with a hit expression at an inexplicable moment, their faces are full of astonishment and panic.

  Bai Xiaosheng watched the match on stage while continuing to say, "The swordsmanship of Xian Le is called Huāhuā Jiàn Fǎ (Flower Washing Sword Technique), which fully utilizes this hidden internal power technique. It's a martial art that matches her Flower Washing Sword perfectly, making it even more powerful. In the early stages of the game, there was a quest that rewarded a rare weapon and a matching martial art upon completion. Xian Le's Huāhuā Jiàn Fǎ and Huāhuā Jiàn (Flower Washing Sword) were obtained from that quest... The first person to complete this quest..." Bai Xiaosheng didn't finish speaking, but instead glanced in the direction of Yi Jian Chong Tian.

  One Sword Charging Heaven smiled and nodded. That's right, One Sword Charging Heaven's Seven Extremes Whirlwind Sword and Seven Extremes Whirlwind Sword Technique were also a set!

  A few words were exchanged, and the outcome of the battle was already decided. The poor members of the Iron Flag Alliance fell under what seemed to be a soft and gentle swordsmanship. Those who didn't know the secret would probably think it was intentional surrender.

  Anyway, Xianle has indeed won and it looks like with an overwhelming advantage. The applause and cheers erupted again as Xianle waved to the audience in gratitude once more. This match was a rare one where everyone only focused on the result, not the process. Xianle made a comeback with his swordsmanship.

  Next, it's the crucial win or lose for both sides, and everyone is looking forward to a thrilling showdown. However, Feng Xiao Xiao's mind is still stuck on Han Hua and An Jing. Xian Le Jian's gentle and humble attitude towards others, as well as his confident demeanor in every move he makes, has made Feng Xiao Xiao find another idol after Qing Yi Ren. Of course, this is just a pure admiration, without any impure thoughts due to gender differences.

  In the final match, after careful discussion, both sides finally sent out their representatives. It seems that several factions have discussed and agreed that the leader must hide behind the scenes and not show his face. At this critical moment, Shiyu Xi and Tie Qi are still standing leisurely at the scene, watching the game without any intention of participating.

  The disappointing debut of many people excited Feng Xiao Xiao for a while, he saw a familiar face - Xiang Yang.

  But Yijian Chongtian put more attention on Xiangyao's opponent, he carefully observed the other for half a day and then took a cold breath: "It's Chenyan! This man's swordsmanship is called Flash Sword or something, very fast! I've fought him once before, at that time I almost confirmed he was the Green Robed Man!"

  "What's next?" Needless to say, it was Feng Xiao Xiao who asked.

  "In the end, he still fell at my hands, his moves were quick but his attack was a bit low, and his weapon was inferior!"

  The wind whispered "oh" and thought that perhaps the person in green was watching all this from a corner of the scene.

  The two men on the field exchanged greetings and then started fighting without saying a word. As expected, Dust Smoke's sword moves were as fast as a ghost, but Xiao Yao was not to be outdone, his top-notch swordsmanship surpassing Dust Smoke's in every way.

  The two people's sword moves were like a stormy rainstorm sweeping the center of the field, the sound of clashing and crashing was endless, and the flashing sword light also made the audience dizzy.

  Xiaoyao uses ordinary Huashan swordsmanship, with limited power, but top-notch sword control, adding 230% to the attack at the same time, and also increasing the attack by 125%, combined with basic swordsmanship, ordinary Huashan swordsmanship even surpasses general mid-level martial arts.

  Unfortunately, the swordsmanship used by Dust Smoke was just this kind of ordinary mid-level martial arts, which was at a disadvantage in terms of attacking power, and was gradually suppressed by Xiao Yao. The sound of "ding ding dang" still existed, but in fact, Dust Smoke had already become more defensive than offensive.

  The difference in attack speed put a certain burden on the weapons. In general, this loss can be ignored, but the two of them were exchanging blows too quickly. While ordinary people's weapons would collide a few times, they had already clashed dozens of times. The consumption of the weapon's durability also increased by tens of times. Xiao Yao's Longquan sword was still a small top-grade item, although its attack power was not outstanding, but in terms of quality, it was slightly better than ordinary swords and knives, making it more durable. On the other hand, Chen Yan's sword was a genuine mid-grade item, and under such high-density collisions, it wore out quickly. If the sword moves weren't too fast, one could already see gaps and cracks on its surface.

  Finally, Dust Smoke's sword was unable to withstand the intense battle of over a hundred moves and shattered into pieces. At the moment when Xiao Yao grabbed the broken sword, he defeated Dust Smoke. Xiao Yao emerged victorious, and at the same time, it marked that the Iron Flag Alliance had defeated their arch-rivals Yi Jian Dong Lai with a score of 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss, causing the entire Iron Flag Alliance to erupt in jubilation.

  "Alas, another fine soldier who doesn't have a suitable weapon!"

  One sword rushed to the sky, and in a low voice, he said to the wind: "Bai Xiao Sheng is actually lacking in actual combat experience. No matter how good the soldier is, Huashan Swordsmanship can't have that kind of power, let alone that speed! What special martial arts does your friend have?"

  The wind was hesitant, wondering if he should tell the truth to One Sword to Heaven. Before he could finish thinking, One Sword to Heaven continued, "I'm just casually saying it, you don't need to tell me!" The wind let out a sigh of relief, feeling that One Sword to Heaven still had some masterful demeanor.

  Longyan announced the continuation of the game on the field, but the gang did not come out to challenge for a long time.

  Eight invited gangs, quickly come here to abandon their rights, one sword comes from the east, Huishan Villa, Qinglong Association loses, and there are still four gangs left, including the host Feilong Mountain Villa, Tieqi Alliance, Jin Qian Bang, and Twelve Flying Eagles Fortress. Among them, Jin Qian Bang has not yet appeared on stage.

  After repeated calls, no faction leader came forward voluntarily, so the task fell to the host, Feilong Mountain Villa. Long Yan appeared again, disregarding the crowd's internal opposition, and spoke, but his words were not a challenge.

  "From the beginning of the sword, almost every sect has come out to show off their skills!" The three words "almost" were used to emphasize the tone, and after saying this sentence, Longyan's gaze turned to the Golden Money Sect, and he continued: "So now it's time for the Golden Money Sect to come out and show off their skills to everyone!" This sentence was quite provocative, and in general, the onlookers who came to watch the excitement would follow along with this sentence and jeer. Unfortunately, this sentence came from Longyan, who was disliked by everyone, so although it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, it still stirred up some ripples. The ripples came from the Golden Money Sect, and the one who stood out was the sect leader, Duobao Qimou, with whom Xiangxiang had a past connection.
