Mortal Bones

Before half a stick of incense.

On the golden scale platform.

Xu Taiping's words "please give Brother Zhou another punch" were undoubtedly provocative in Zhou Yuanqing's eyes.

"boom!"

So as soon as these words came out, Zhou Yuanqing turned cold and punched him hard.

Even if Zhou Yuanqing didn't use all his strength in this blow, he still used at least 70% to 80% of his strength. With his body at the peak of the Martial Saint realm, 70% to 80% of his true energy stimulated by all his strength, coupled with his already excellent boxing skills, made this punch more powerful. When it was thrown out, there were continuous explosions of air, and the power was far greater than the punch just now.

But this time, Xu Taiping still did not dodge, but used the mountain-bearing stance to block it.

It's just that at this moment, he has completely regarded himself as a martial artist who can't use his true energy, just like the time when he fought against the ghost in Qingzhu Residence.

The results can be imagined.

"boom!"

Amidst the huge collision, Xu Taiping's body was hit by the huge force of Zhou Yuanqing's fist again, causing him to roll backwards.

The only improvement was that this time he used the mountain-bearing stance to successfully offload the force of Zhou Yuanqing's fist onto the golden scale platform at his feet, preventing him from being knocked off the ground by the force like the first punch. rise.

But this is not felt by onlookers.

They only saw Xu Taiping, who once again fell in embarrassment under Zhou Yuanqing's fist.

Then the sounds of surprise and confusion around him began to become more and more numerous and louder.

Some people think that Zhou Yuanqing has the skills to restrain Xu Taiping.

Some people think that Xu Taiping's reputation is in vain and that his last victory over Ye Feiyu was just a fluke.

Others felt that Xu Taiping and Zhou Yuanqing had made some kind of deal behind the scenes, and were even preparing to raise objections to Youyun Mansion after the competition.

The one who thought the same way was Mu Yuchen from Juemingtian.

"Brother, did Xu Taiping lose to Zhou Yuanqing on purpose? He was not this weak in the last match!"

Mu Yuchen said with a hint of anger.

She was already worried about Xu Taiping's victory over Mu Yun, but now she saw that Xu Taiping might have a secret deal with Zhou Yuanqing, and she was naturally unhappy.

"If you don't admit defeat willingly, your luck will be swallowed up by the Golden Scale Ranking, so I told you privately that the aristocratic family and the sect will never compete on stage, but choose to withdraw from the competition before the competition."

Mu Yun shook his head.

This point is mentioned in the commandments read out by the deacon in white before each competition.

Mu Yuchen naturally knew, but he was still angry.

"Besides, before the competition, I conducted a secret investigation and found that there was no interaction between Zhou Yuanqing and Xu Taiping. They even had no contact with their respective subordinates or people around them."

Mu Yun then added with a frown.

"Is it possible that this week Yuan Qing really has some means that we can't see through but can suppress his opponents?"

Mu Yuchen's expression turned serious at this time.

"You can't say for sure. If there is anything abnormal, Jin Scale Bang will directly kick the two of them off the Golden Scale Platform. The two of them can still stand on the stage, which means they have not violated the precepts of Jin Scale Bang."

Mu Yun crossed his fingers and clenched his fist, gently held his chin, and stared unblinkingly at the golden scale platform below.

…

Zhenwutian, Youxuanju.

All the brothers in Qifeng also raised the same question at this time.

"Xu Taiping, it is impossible to use the Golden Scale Society to make a deal with Zhou Yuanqing. There must be other reasons for this."

While everyone was talking about it, Lin Buyu was extremely determined.

After hearing what she said, everyone nodded. After all, no one knew Xu Taiping's character better than them.

"Second Junior Brother, which sect did you just say that Zhou Yuanqing comes from?"

Jiang Zhi suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Dugu Qingxiao.

"Xuan Dao Sect."

Dugu Qingxiao replied.

"Xuan Dao Sect? This name, the more I hear it, the more familiar it becomes. Wait, I remember it."

Jiang Zhi, who was rubbing his eyebrows with his fingers, suddenly raised his head, then looked at the crowd with wide eyes and said, "Second Junior Brother, do you still remember? Huang Que once told us seven years ago that before Taiping left Zhenwutian, he Helped Tian Dao Sect to defeat two monks from Youyuntian."

"Remember, I still remember Huang Que said that the ones who attacked the Tian Dao Sect were a pair of siblings, and the elder sister is from the Xuan Dao Sect from Youyuntian!"

Dugu Qingxiao suddenly woke up.

"Not only that, the sister from the Xuandao Sect kidnapped Duan Xiaoyu, the daughter of the head of the Tiandao Sect, when she escaped."

Jiang Zhi then said with a solemn expression.

At that time, the Qingxuan Sect was in dire straits and everyone was busy with things. Even she only learned about this through Huang Que after Xu Taiping left Zhenwu Tian.

"Could it be that the Xuan Dao Sect is threatening Taiping with Duan Xiaoyu?"

Zhao Linglong, who was outspoken, immediately expressed her suspicions.

"Let me ask the oriole."

Dugu Qingxiao immediately took out the jade slip and contacted the oriole of Jiufu.

…

There was a lot of chatter outside the court.

The competition on the field remains the same.

"boom!"

Zhou Yuanqing knocked aside Xu Taiping's fist with one punch, and then kicked Xu Taiping hard in the abdomen. His body was lifted three feet off the ground before he hit the ground hard.

When Xu Taiping's body landed on the ground, he struck down hard with his kick.

However, Xu Taiping reacted in time and dodged the kick with a roll.

But before he could stand up, Zhou Yuanqing's fist hit Xu Taiping hard again.

"boom!"

This time, Xu Taiping got into a mountain-mountain stance in time and blocked the punch.

Although the skin on his arm was cracked, he successfully used the mountain-carrying style to transfer at least 40% of the force of the punch to his feet, and finally just staggered back a few feet.

"Sure enough, my boxing skills are not very good!"

Although he was covered with bruises, Xu Taiping's eyes were unusually bright. He had completely forgotten that this was an extremely unfair duel.
