Su Dao Xing led the way, and roughly understood that his eldest uncle Shi Nu Duo was a weirdo. Under this weirdo's wave of affectionate attacks, he had no choice but to agree to give his eldest uncle twenty more paintings of Wake Dance Masters.
"Twenty pieces of Master Xing Wu's artwork are in hand." Xi Nu's face was filled with warm spring breeze, gazing at Su Dao Xing as if looking at a money jar that spit out money.
"We've arrived at the castle." Shi Zhengyi reminded.
Xīnǔ immediately put on a serious face, completely different from the gentle one just now. It seems he has been well-trained and can change his expression faster than flipping through a book.
The city lord's mansion in Xicheng doesn't have tall buildings, but is like a rural garden with small bridges and flowing water, red bricks and green tiles.
"Master Xi, please enter. The Lord of the City is waiting for you at the martial arts arena." A guard leader from the City Master's mansion led Xi Zhengyi and his group into the mansion.
"Has Wang Tongling arrived?" Xizhengyi asked the leading guard.
"The people from the Huas arrived a quarter of an hour early and are in the martial arts arena," said Commander Wang with courtesy.
In a short while, Wang Tong led Xi Zhengyi and his entourage to the martial arts arena in the backyard of the city master's mansion.
The martial arts arena of the city lord's mansion was extremely vast, especially the central martial arts platform, on which the formation masters had laid down formations. Even if cultivators engaged in a fierce battle on the martial arts platform, they would not be able to destroy even a single brick or tile of the martial arts platform and the city lord's mansion.
The head of the Hua family was discussing something with Lord Chengyu.
"The master of the Xi family has arrived." Wang Tongling said to the city guard and the people from the Hua family in the distance.
"Xí Zhèngyì has arrived." The city guard stopped his conversation with the master of the Huá family and looked at Xí Zhèngyì.
"I've met Lord Jōshū." Sei Shōgi bowed slightly towards Lord Jōshū.
"They have seen Lord Cheng." The group of people from the Xi family hastily paid their respects.
"No need to be polite!" The city guardian's gaze inadvertently swept over Su Dao Xing, he was one of the four generals who had seen the secret letter with Tang Hua Feng and Zhang Tong Xi on that day. He knew that the Su Dao Xing in front of him was the young sect master who had killed Tang Hua Feng and Zhang Tong Xi.
He was full of questions, how a young Zong Shi could kill two Xiu Zhe, the gap between Zong Shi and Xiu Zhe is huge, it's not that easy to cross.
The Huas and the Xis exchanged greetings, although the two families were like fire and water in private, openly quarreling and secretly fighting, but on the surface they still had to create a harmonious atmosphere.
"The ownership of the five mines in Xicheng will be decided by the outcome of the competition between the two families, Hu and Xi. Winning one round means winning the mining rights to one mine. The rules are simple: first, the strongest members of each family will compete against each other, then the weaker ones." Lord Cheng scanned the people from both the Hu and Xi families.
"I understand!" The heads of both families spoke out one after another.
The order of appearance for the strong participants from the Huajia family has been decided. The first to appear is a servant of the Huajia family, Zhang Gong. The second to appear is the master of the Huajia family. The third to appear is Hua Zhongjun, a cultivator of the Huajia family. Fourth and fifth to appear are two grandmasters from the Military Department.
The first to appear is Xi Zhengyi, the second is Li Gongfeng, the third is Su Daowu, the fourth is Xi Zhengjun, and the fifth is Xi Nu.
The heads of both families expressed recognition of each other's order of battle deployment.
"Alright, first match, Shi family's master and Zhang Gongfang, please come on stage." The City Guardian looked at Shi Zhengyi and Zhang Gongfang.
Xizheng Yi and Zhang Gongbao rushed onto the martial arts stage.
As soon as he stepped onto the stage, Xi Zhengyi took out his own spiritual brush, and a powerful aura enveloped the martial arts arena.
Zhang Gongfeng smiled slyly and took out a large hammer from a storage wristband, waving it in front of Xizhengyi.
Zhang Gongfeng deliberately angered Xi Zhengyi, and Da Chui was the nemesis of Lingbi. As the saying goes, "Heavy hammer defeats Lingbi".
Whoosh!
Zhang Gongfeng threw out a heavy hammer, although it was not a spiritual soldier's hammer, but its momentum was strong and powerful, like a meteor hitting Xizhengyi.
Xizhengyi had long been accumulating momentum, wielding his spiritual brush to strike the heavy hammer repeatedly, shattering it.
"Another hammer!"
Zhang Gongfang threw out another heavy hammer.
Xizhengyi's discontented cold drink sounded, waving the spiritual pen to Chongchui point, pointed dozens of times, before shattering the heavy hammer.
"Master Xi, I still have a few heavy hammers left, you'd better keep your spiritual power to defend yourself, don't get hurt by my heavy hammer." Zhang Gong's strength was not as good as Xi Zhengyi's, but his purpose in coming on stage was to humiliate Master Xi, so he naturally wouldn't speak kindly to Xi Zhengyi.
"How detestable! Zhang Gongfeng, one day you will leave the Hu family. On that day, won't you be afraid of having too many enemies and meeting a bad end?" Xi Zhengyi sneered at Zhang Gongfeng with a cold smile.
"Don't worry, Master Hu. Zhang has already secured a position in the Northern Army and will be leaving for his new post one day. He won't be bothering you again." Zhang Bangchang casually tossed out three heavy hammers.
Three-handled heavy hammer in the shape of a "pin" character crashed into Xi Zhengyi.
"Painting a prison!" Xizhengyi displayed his ultimate move, and with a stroke of his spiritual brush, he painted a cage in the void.
Boom!
A heavy hammer slammed down on top of the cage, covering it and rendering it immobile.
Two heavy hammers struck towards Xi Zhengyi, with a loud crash, but the two heavy hammers only shattered Xi Zhengyi's afterimage, as he had already moved to the other side of the martial stage.
"The old man's shrinking technique has reached perfection, if it were in the past, he would have been hit by a heavy hammer and seriously injured." Zhang Gong thought to himself what a pity.
"Painting the ground as a prison!" Xi Zhengyi waved his spiritual brush and painted out a cage that trapped a heavy hammer. His body moved, dodging another heavy hammer's attack, and he painted out another cage, trapping another heavy hammer.
Zhang Gong dedicated his vast will, and the intent condensed into a heavy hammer emitting spiritual light behind him. The hammer was divided into three prongs, a trident hammer.
As soon as the three-edged hammer came out, the entire martial arts platform was shaken and swayed in all directions. If it weren't for the law array protecting the platform, the entire platform would have already collapsed.
Xizhengyi didn't dare to be careless and immediately released his own will, which condensed into a virtual image of Wensheng Su Xuan behind him. The virtual image gradually solidified.
The Xie family is a descendant of King Wen, although their ancestors were marshals of the imperial court, they cannot change the family's tradition of respecting literature and despising martial arts. The masters of the family have always followed the path of King Wen, and their aspirations are all about literary sainthood and Su Xuan.
Wen Sheng Su Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he concentrated, emitting a faint scent of old books.
"It's just Wen Sheng, bring me the Trident of Three Edges!" Zhang Gong shouted loudly, controlling the trident as a giant mountain pressed down on Wen Sheng Su Xuan.
Wen Sheng Su Xuan raised his hands towards the sky and held up the three-pronged hammer, rendering it unable to press down even an inch.
Buzz!
Zhang Gongfeng wielded his three-pronged hammer and directly shattered one of Wen Shengsu Xuan's arms, striking towards Xi Zhengyi's head.
Wen Sheng Su Xuan's only remaining hand grasped the spiritual brush thrown by Xi Zhengyi, holding the brush to draw a prison on the ground, covering the three-pronged hammer.
Zhang Gongfeng manipulated the three-pronged hammer, wanting it to fly out of the cage, but found that the three-pronged hammer was tightly trapped in the cage and could not break free.
