Madam, look at the sword!

Chapter 102 The Young Master is Disgraced (4000)

The sky is clear and the sun is high.

It's summer in Kyoto, and there's an indescribable heat.

The chirping of cicadas coming from the streets and alleys will make people even more upset after listening to it for a long time.

In front of the Dali Temple, the young students from the four academies of Yinglong, Yunji, Tiance and Qingsong not only felt hot and upset, but also felt a little depressed inside. It was understandable that they would explode in the arena like this.

As soon as the drama of the four major academies competing against each other and taking turns to challenge was staged, it immediately spread throughout the city of Kyoto.

Therefore, many students from the academy are arriving, and many masters on the Qingyun List are also focusing their attention on this. Everyone suddenly realizes that this may be a good opportunity for discussion and exchange.

I have to say that for the current Zhoutian, the current Kyoto, and the current generation

They urgently need this opportunity for discussion and exchange.

Because Zong can enter the court, because thousands of Zong come to the court.

If they don't fight for their own success, they may become the most embarrassing generation since the establishment of the four major academies.

Perhaps, for some people who are older, have learned more about the ways of the world, and have some mature experience, [shame] is not a big deal.

But for young boys and girls, [disgraceful] is an exaggeration to say that the sky is falling.

Mr. Long Xiang himself hates being embarrassed and loves to be in the limelight.

Therefore, whenever he goes out on the street, no matter where he goes, he will have a group of friends shouting around him to highlight his pomp and status.

He would always appear at the end, in a crowded place, with his face held high and his nose ring sweeping the audience, in order to gain attention.

Today was no different. Even after hearing the news and knowing that the four major academies were gathered here, Mr. Long Xiang even spent money to find a few beautiful women as green leaves to accompany his appearance.

It's just, a little surprising.

He made a good appearance and attracted the attention of the audience. But before his nostrils could sweep the entire audience, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Chengfeng in the crowd.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Master Long Xiang averted his eyes.

The face of the third prince of Prince Dangbei is now recognized by everyone in Kyoto. Students from the four major academies are even more impressed by it, and he is no different.

And the reason why he averted his eyes immediately was not because he was afraid of the third prince, but mainly because his family told him not to provoke him.

Mr. Longxiang's surname is Xu, and the Xu family is a first-class wealthy family in Kyoto.

The Xu family has existed in Zhoutian for thousands of years, and has repeatedly chosen to side with the imperial power between the patriarchal power and the imperial power. So now, the Xu family is naturally more than just a wealthy businessman.

Xu Longxiang's father was already a first-rank Yuan cabinet bachelor, and many members of his family held important positions within the dynasty.

Coupled with a family background that has been in business for thousands of years, the Xu family can be regarded as one of the few families that have flourished in both politics and business.

With such a background, Master Long Xiang certainly has few people in Zhou Tian that he cannot afford to offend.

It's just a coincidence that Zhao Chengfeng is one of them.

Since the third prince came to Beijing.

Not only his father, but even his grandfather specifically told him not to provoke the Third Prince.

First of all, the Xu Family Trading Company's business is spread all over Jiuzhou, so it naturally has a lot of contacts with Beizhou, so it can't hurt the harmony.

Second, the previous generation of the family had generally believed that the Third Prince's notorious reputation and playboy style were superficial, as early as when he first entered the capital.

Facts show that the elderly’s vision is still accurate.

After the third prince entered the capital, his talents first emerged.

First, he shined in the college examination, then he defeated the third prince of Dahuang in four breaths, and then he chose to marry the young princess Wei Huanchu with great decisiveness and sensitivity.

Politics, force, intelligence, everything is covered.

It is normal to say that there are people behind the scenes to give advice, but I must not be the trash as rumored.

Therefore, if you can avoid being evil, don't be evil.

Although Mr. Long Xiang likes to save face and show off, he is not a fool and will not offend the third prince of Prince Dangbei just for the sake of face and show.

Especially now when the Xu family is fighting for power within the family, he can't give himself any eye drops.

just

He didn't want to cause trouble, but it seemed like the Third Prince wanted to mess with him.

Seeing the Fang Ting person who was writing the letter of war, the crowd stepped aside on both sides, saw the Third Prince writing something, and saw a dark-skinned girl who was obviously not from Zhou Tian came to stand in front of him and his friends.

"Is your name Mr. Long Xiang?"

As soon as I saw a letter of challenge, I threw it away.

Young Master Long Xiang accepted the letter of challenge with a look of disdain on the surface.

But I was extremely melancholy inside.

Not

Are these barbarians from the north so fierce?

Are you so arrogant?

Are you so domineering?

just because.

Did you take another look at him in the crowd?

……

Zhao Chengfeng and Young Master Long Xiang are currently ranked fifteenth and eleventh on the Qingyun Ranking.

Strictly speaking, it was Zhao Chengfeng who was the challenger, challenging the high-ranking Master Long Xiang.

However, as long as you have seen it not long ago, or heard the story that Zhao Chengfeng once cruelly and bloodyly destroyed the limbs of the Third Prince of Dahuang on this arena.

It's hard for people to see this as a challenge.

And this duel is also the first duel on the Qingyun Ranking today since the Dali Temple arena suddenly became a place for students from the four major colleges to exchange ideas and exchange ideas for revenge.

Therefore, naturally everyone is looking forward to it. Naturally, the current competition in the arena is a bit boring. Naturally, the focus of attention begins to focus on the Third Prince's side on the north and south sides, and Young Master Long Xiang's side.

On the north side are the Third Prince and his friends.

Zhao Chengfeng is currently enjoying the shade under the old banyan tree on the north side.

Fat Face and Zhugan were asking questions in succession:

"Your Majesty, why is this?"

"Is it really because he glanced at you?"

Zhao Chengfeng shook his head: "There is a reason for speculation, but in fact the main reason is that the Xu family is good."

Fat Face: "That's right. You give people a challenge."

Zhugan: "Looks like I'm going to give him a good beating."

Neither of them realize now that they have infinite confidence in the third son Zhao Chengfeng. Let alone the eleventh one on the Qingyun Ranking, even if they are number one, they will not think that their Xiao Zhao can't beat him. .

As for why, it may be that after doing it again and again, they have become numb and blind, and they have become accustomed to watching the prince win.

The painting style on the other side is completely different from here.

"Too deceiving!"

"In terms of status, Young Master Xu is no worse than his third son."

"In terms of strength, the young master is number 11 on the Qingyun Ranking. How can he still be afraid of number 15?"

"Do you really think that all the Qingyun rankings are randomly ranked?"

The friends and girls around Mr. Long Xiang all supported him.

I am used to being arrogant and domineering. Even in Yinglong Academy, except for the few people I meet who give each other a face-saving nod, they usually walk sideways.

Who would have thought, I was arrogant today.

Who can feel comfortable with this?

Mr. Longxiang can~! Listening to the compliments of the group of friends around him, and knowing that they are friends, Xu Longxiang now wishes they would shut their mouths.

But it was more than face. Faced with these compliments, he could only smile and said calmly: "I really want to see the power of the third prince."

That's what it says.

There was a look of arrogance on his face.

But Mr. Long Xiang, who actually has a very clear understanding of himself, is actually a little panicked now.

The reason why he was panicking was that in fact, he got the eleventh position on the Qingyun Ranking list when he made intensive progress last year.

But this year, he suffered from the disease of superficial love. Instead of practicing hard, he was nostalgic for the flowers with his friends and friends.

Xu Longxiang even knew the origin of this disease very well. It was because he was an illegitimate child and was brought back to Kyoto when he was seven years old. Because he had no vision since he was a child, he seemed to have natural deficiencies. Comparing several brothers and sisters in the clan, he looked like He is a native roe deer, so he wants to have whatever his elder brothers and younger brothers in the clan have, and he hopes that his elder brothers and younger brothers don't have what he has.

I can't change it when I grow up. I just can't let go of ostentation and face. I like to hear flattery and like people to look at me with a little envy in their eyes.

Grandpa said he had low self-esteem

He didn't know if it was because of his inferiority complex, but he hated being embarrassed the most.

And as he watched, news of the duel between him and Zhao Chengfeng came out on the ring. One after another people who were originally on the stage chose to shake hands and make peace, and quickly skipped it, just to let the two of them appear as soon as possible.

After taking a few deep breaths, Master Long Xiang sat cross-legged on the ground and drew out his sword.

Under the sun and the breeze, his behavior naturally attracted a lot of attention.

The calm and focused Master Longxiang quickly entered a state of selflessness and began to adjust his breath.

Because I don’t want to be embarrassed.

So sharpen your guns before the battle.

After getting rid of all the clutter, he felt that what his friends had just said made sense.

After all, the foundation is still there.

The fifteenth-ranked Third Prince may not be unable to fight!

……

"Boom~~"

When the much-anticipated showdown between dudes begins.

With just one move, Young Master Longxiang knew that he wouldn't be able to fight at all.

He practiced the Xu family's three-inch sword, which was rumored to have been learned by the ancestors of the Xu family and the Qingshan Sword Immortal. It was later turned into the secret heirloom of the Xu family and has been passed down to this day.

He started practicing as soon as he entered the family. He was taught by countless famous teachers and fought against countless people invited by the family.

These experiences gradually developed a fighting intuition.

Even if his practice this year has been somewhat neglected.

But as soon as he took action, the sword path seemed to be figured out and the feeling immediately filled his body and mind.

Sure enough, Zhao Chengfeng hit the weak point of the sword exactly after he drew it out with his palm.

It's okay to shoot it, the power is extremely fierce, like an overwhelming force, the true energy is strong, and the explosive force is like a volcano erupting.

With just one palm, he almost couldn't hold the hilt of the sword.

Mr. Long Xiang even felt a sense of emptiness in his body.

He was originally a practitioner of the Three Realms, but because he was too lazy to breathe in and out on weekdays, there was not much true energy in his vein gate.

Therefore, Xu Longxiang, the main character who was 'sober', mobilized a ray of spiritual energy into his throat and formed a line in his busy schedule. He actually sent a message to Zhao Chengfeng just after the duel started.

"His Royal Highness is indeed fierce, why don't you give him some face and put him on the next horse?"

this moment

Zhao Chengfeng was confused.

Because at this moment, with the sound of begging for mercy ringing in his ears, Master Longxiang not far away was holding a sword on his chest, his expression was confident and arrogant, and he even looked at himself with a little disdain.

This made Zhao Chengfeng wonder what the young man in Jinfu in front of him was playing with.

Since it cannot be ruled out, could this be Young Master Long Xiang’s tactics?

Therefore, Zhao Chengfeng quickly punched him again.

The fist and sword wrapped in true energy connected.

Although he planned to practice swordsmanship, Zhao Chengfeng, who had no sword so far, knocked Master Longxiang's sword aside.

"Your Majesty, please, I can lose, but can you make my loss look good?"

Zhao Chengfeng: "..."

Mr. Long Xiang, who said these soft words, turned back gracefully and danced a sword flower with the long sword in his hand. He looked calm and calm, and even raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking like I was the best. .

Zhao Chengfeng has never encountered such an opponent in his previous life.

I had to say something:

"Are you afraid of being embarrassed?"

Mr. Long Xiang responded immediately:

"Of course, as long as His Highness the Crown Prince and I are indistinguishable, I will only lose one move. The Xu family will remember your kindness."

So he, who didn't understand the Third Prince, faced a violent attack like a storm.

"Oh, no, Your Majesty."

"I"

"..."

……

The much-anticipated showdown in the ring has now become weird.

It was okay at first, but after trying a few moves, both sides seemed to be on equal footing.

Now, it was the Third Prince who was overwhelming Young Master Long Xiang and beating him so hard that it was difficult for him to even fight back.

But every time when Master Long Xiang seemed about to be defeated, the Third Prince would give him a chance to take a breath, and then continue.

Therefore, Mr. Long Xiang looks very embarrassed as he blocks from left to right.

He had to refuse to be pushed to the ground and beaten violently, but he could only try his best to resist in such a state of embarrassment.

But, he still got hit by two old punches

The left side of his face and right eyebrow were swollen, which made Mr. Longxiang look very pitiful.

In the audience, his friends couldn't bear to watch anymore, and several beautiful women even covered their eyes.

Fat Face and Zhugan were more simple and direct. As they looked at each other, they focused their attention on Urentuya’s little black face and made a pertinent comment;

"Not as good as you."

Urentuya grinned, showing his white teeth, and nodded heavily in agreement.

And this time...

On the ring, Young Master Long Xiang, who had already understood that he did not want to embarrass himself, and that the Third Prince just wanted to embarrass himself, finally fell to the ground.

He fell in despair.

Because he really doesn't want to be embarrassed, he may be experiencing the biggest embarrassing event in his life.

Although he could feel that Zhao Chengfeng kept his hand, otherwise he would have been unconscious by now.

But it is precisely because of being awake that I am suffering even more now.

To him, the looks from all directions around the ring were like knives cutting into his flesh.

A feeling that comes from childhood, when he first entered the Xu family, he was instinctively afraid of being looked down upon by others, but the feeling of being looked down upon once again enveloped his body and mind.

Then at this moment, it was natural for him that every day seemed like a year.

He was so uncomfortable that the sounds from the ring disappeared in his ears, and only the blue of the sky was left in front of his eyes, until Mr. Long Xiang saw a beautiful face that blocked half of the clear sky.

"I thought you were a rival, but I didn't expect that you don't look as good as me, don't have the same family background as me, and don't have the same strength as me, yet you still care so much about other people's eyes."

He had already failed miserably and lost his master, but now he was being watched by his classmates from the four major academies. After hearing these words again, Young Master Long Xiang had to grit his teeth: "What you said is really hurtful."

Zhao Chengfeng looked at him and continued: "But your sword is actually pretty good. It's just that you have your own problems, and your family is also pretty good, so..."

At this time, the resentment in Mr. Long Xiang's heart towards Zhao Chengfeng was about to turn into resentment, and then he heard the praise.

He couldn't bear the most praise, so he was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to deal with it.

But at this time, he saw Zhao Chengfeng folding a piece of cardboard from his arms and placing it on his collar.

Like laying flowers on a grave.

"Go home and see if you can understand."
