The world of film and television begins from childhood

Zhou Chen also respected Zhuang Mohan very much. There are talented people in every walk of life, and Zhuang Mohan is the most outstanding one and deserves respect.

Although he will have a battle with Ku He in half a month, he has no intention of cramming. Reaching the Grandmaster realm is already another level. It is not the case that the longer you practice, the stronger you will become, let alone just half a month.

Zhou Chen settled down peacefully in Zhuang Mohan's mansion. During the day, he would accompany Zhan Pianpian to play in the city, and sometimes they would go for an outing outside the city. After returning home, he would discuss academic matters with Zhuang Mohan. His life was very relaxing and comfortable.

On the contrary, the pressure on the Northern Qi side was very great. The young emperor and the empress dowager did not publicize the fact that Zhou Chen had challenged Ku He. As a powerful official in the Northern Qi, Shen Zhong naturally did not want such a thing that might harm the prestige of the Great Qi to spread.

Therefore, even in Shangjing City, the number of people who truly understand this matter is less than two hands.

The guards in the imperial palace were several times stricter than before. Even the ministers who didn't know what was happening gradually realized that something was unusual. This also led to a change in the atmosphere in Shangjing City. There was a feeling of panic and every tree and grass seemed to be an enemy.

The secret agents from various countries hiding in Shangjing City dared not make any moves during this period and hid deeper than anyone else.

In the blink of an eye, it’s only a few days away from August 15th.

August 13th, inside the palace.

Zhan Doudou looked at the information sent back from Nanqing with a serious expression. After reading it, he handed it to Haitang Duoduo.

"Little Sister, take a look too, is it him?"

The information in the letter was sent back by a spy hidden in Nanqing at the risk of his life. For this information, the Northern Qi's spy in Nanqing suffered heavy losses.

Haitang Duoduo took it and looked at it for a few seconds, then saw the person circled by Zhan Doudou.

"Zhou Chen, the legitimate son of the Earl of Anyuan in Nanqing, the only heir of the Earl of Anyuan, is nineteen years old, lives in seclusion, and has no portrait..."

"I have found 19 people named Zhou Chen registered in Nanqing. Their names, ages, and other characteristics are very consistent. The legitimate son of the Earl of Anyuan is ranked first. I have a hunch that he should be him."

Ever since she met Zhou Chen and learned of his identity and background, she and the Queen Mother immediately mobilized personnel to launch an investigation. They used countless methods and sacrificed many secret agents before they obtained this information.

"It is indeed very likely, but it is surprising that such a marginal figure in Nanqing Kyoto who never leaves his house can become a grandmaster."

"Yes, according to my estimation, no one in Nanqing knows his strength, otherwise they would not be indifferent."

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

Zhan Doudou put his hands behind his back, looked ahead, and said quietly, "Everything will have to wait until August 15th is over."

Yes, any decision will have to be made after the Grandmaster Battle.

August 15th, sunny!

The atmosphere at the dinner table today was a little strange. Apart from Zhou Chen who was eating seriously, Zhuang Mohan and Zhan Pianpian hardly moved their chopsticks.

Zhou Chen put down his chopsticks, looked at Zhan Pianpian and Zhuang Mohan who were full of worry, and smiled slightly.

"Don't worry about me. It's just a fight, not a life-and-death battle."

Having said that, how could the two of them not be worried about the battle between the grandmasters?

Ordinary clashes between masters are always full of swords and dangers. How dangerous will the battle between grandmasters be?

Zhou Chen is skilled, brave and fearless, but they are different.

Zhuang Mohan regards Zhou Chen as a close friend and doesn't want anything to happen to Zhou Chen.

Zhan Pianpian's mood was even more complicated. She had never been with a man for so long and had such a good time with him. Zhou Chen had already been in her heart for a long time. She wanted Zhou Chen to take her to travel around, so she also didn't want anything to happen to Zhou Chen.

She wanted to persuade him, but in the end she didn't have the courage to say it out loud. She knew that Zhou Chen would not be convinced by her, and this battle was inevitable.

"The full moon is coming, and I have to make some preparations. You don't have to worry about me."

Zhou Chen returned to his yard, practiced breathing and meditation, preparing for the battle in the evening.

A carriage came into the palace. Although Zhan Pianpian was reluctant, she had to follow the carriage back to the palace. Before leaving, she did not disturb Zhou Chen, but just looked in the direction of the yard for a long time. Finally, she changed her clothes and left the manor.

The sky gradually darkened. Zhou Chen, who was meditating, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the moon in the sky with a solemn expression, and stood up.

"Time is up."

When walking out of the yard, Zhou Chen saw Zhuang Mohan. Neither of them spoke. Finally, Zhou Chen smiled at him, saluted, flew into the air, and quickly headed towards the direction of the palace.

Zhuang Mohan sighed quietly. He had his pursuits, and Zhou Chen also had his own pursuits. No one had the right to stop others.

Inside the imperial palace, Ku He was waiting quietly, and around him stood several people, who, except Zhan Doudou and the Queen Mother, were all his disciples.

"The moon is full."

I don’t know who spoke first, but this sentence was like a switch. Ku He, who was sitting there, suddenly opened his eyes, and an indescribable aura burst out from him.

"coming!"

The next moment, he quickly rushed out of the palace and then came to the roof of the hall.

Haitang Duoduo, Langtao and others also rushed out of the hall quickly. Zhan Doudou and the Queen Mother were a little slower, but they also came outside under Shen Zhong's escort.

Everyone looked up and saw two figures standing on the roof, one on each side, fighting against each other.

"I am a newcomer and would like to learn from your seniors' skills!" Zhou Chen spoke first.

Ku He is an elderly man, but he does not look old. His temperament is calm and relaxed, just like a high monk.

"Zhou Chen, this is the first time I heard your name. You are from Nanqing. Who is your teacher?"

"I am indeed from Qing Country, but as for my teacher, I don't have one yet."

"Without a master, he was able to create a martial art like Ruyi Jin. He is truly a hero at a young age. It is amazing."

Ku He looked at the young Zhou Chen with a gleam in his eyes. Zhou Chen was indeed a grandmaster like him, but even so, he was shocked.

Among the four great masters in the world, only Ye Liuyun did not learn the secret book of the temple. Now there is another Zhou Chen, who is 19 years old, a grandmaster who created his own martial arts, and is praised by the grandmaster of literature Zhuang Mohan for his extraordinary talent.

With such talent and amazing ability, there is only one person in his life whose charm can be compared with Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen was not surprised at all when Ku He mentioned Ruyi Jin. Since he had given it to Haitang Duoduo, he was not afraid of being seen by Ku He.

Even though Ku He is a grandmaster, he has formed his own school after all. The greatest help of Ruyi Jin to him is to help him understand his own true qi and mental method.

But as he has been promoted to a grandmaster, he has long since transcended the scope of Ruyi Jin and reached a higher level.

Neither of them spoke again, and their shadows lengthened in the moonlight.

Although the fight had not started yet, the people watching below were already holding their breath.

Chapter 1424: The Sacredness of the World, the Battle of Grandmasters!

The people outside the hall looked at the two great masters above with different expressions.

Some are worried, some are nervous, some are excited, some are angry, and some are full of admiration...

But no matter what kind of emotion it is, it cannot stop the fight between these two grandmasters. A rare battle between grandmasters in the world is about to break out.

"Protect the Queen Mother and His Majesty!"

No one knew how terrifying the battle between grandmasters was. Except for the little emperor and the empress dowager, everyone else present was a master. But even so, they were very nervous.

It's a nice night, with stars and the moon hanging in the sky and no wind.

But at this moment, the wind suddenly blew and gradually became stronger.

Looking up at the people above, I saw Zhou Chen and Ku He on the roof of the palace moving at the same time.

The two of them were extremely fast. Zhou Chen held the sword and pointed it at Ku He. Ku He then burst out with terrifying true energy all over his body, and slapped out with his palm, heading towards Zhou Chen.

The next moment, an even stronger hurricane appeared, and the roof of the palace was cracked by the collision of the two masters' true qi, and debris flew everywhere.

"Queen Mother, Your Majesty, quickly escort the Queen Mother and Your Majesty back..."

The terrifying hurricane and true energy overflowed. Those masters at the eighth and ninth levels were better off, but those with lower strength could not withstand it and could only retreat.

Although the young emperor Zhan Doudou was also frightened, his expression was relatively calm and he was not afraid of danger. On the contrary, the empress dowager was so frightened that her face turned pale and she was protected by the guards arranged by Shen Zhong and quickly retreated.

"Little Sister, is this the method used by a grandmaster?" Zhan Doudou still had the mood to ask Haitang Duoduo.

Haitang Duoduo stared upwards: "I don't know either. This is the first time I've seen Master fight with another Grandmaster. But I think they are probably just testing each other and haven't used their full strength at all."

"Isn't this even the best effort?"

Zhan Doudou looked at the palace, which was half destroyed by just one contact, and his face turned extremely ugly.

If she hasn't used her full strength yet, how long can her imperial city last when the full-scale battle begins?

In fact, her worries were not exaggerated. When Ye Liuyun fought against Wu Zhu, who had no true energy, he could destroy houses within a radius of dozens of miles.

Zhou Chen and Ku He's true Qi is definitely stronger than Ye Liuyun's. If they fight with all their strength, the huge Northern Qi Palace may not be able to withstand it.

Haitang Duoduo, Langtao and the others all stared upwards, even though they were far behind the grandmasters, a duel of this level would be of great help to their martial arts journey, even if they only understood a little bit.

Zhou Chen and Ku He’s first attack was indeed just a test.

Zhou Chen knew some of Ku He's characteristics and understood that Ku He's strongest point was not attack, but defense, or recovery. He could call upon the nuclear radiation energy between heaven and earth for his own use, which made his continuous output ability very powerful in continuous combat.

It was precisely because of this that he gave his Ruyi Power to Haitang Duoduo.

He knew Ku He's characteristics, so naturally he had to let Ku He know his characteristics as well. This would be fair.

As if he understood Ku He's meaning, Zhou Chen did not wantonly release his true energy, but instead fought with Ku He at close range.

Both of them were extremely fast. The moment they came into contact, they had already attacked dozens of times. Most of the time, Zhou Chen was attacking while Ku He was defending. The number of active attacks was much less than that of Zhou Chen.

In a short period of time, the two exchanged dozens of moves, but because of the control of their true energy, their attacks seemed much less powerful than the first time.

Ku He seems to have few attacks, but that is his characteristic. If a grandmaster wants to fight to the death, there is no need for such complicated collisions. When he bursts out with all his strength, life and death can often be decided in just a few moves.

After the first test, both of them understood each other's intentions and decided to fight only with fighting skills, regardless of life or death.

Based on this condition, when it comes to taking action, one will naturally feel a little restrained.

The more they fought, the more surprised Ku He became. Zhou Chen was only twenty years old, but both his moves and body movements were extremely sophisticated and agile. He could even suppress him with his moves alone. This was the second person he had met since he became a grandmaster.

The first one is Wu Zhu. Although Wu Zhu has no true Qi, his speed, body movements, strength and moves are the strongest in the world. If he does not have a strong true Qi as a foundation, none of the four masters would be a match for Wu Zhu.

Although Zhou Chen in front of him might be slightly inferior to Wu Zhu, he was already very terrifying. The most important thing was that not only was his speed, body movements, and moves powerful, but even his true energy was incredibly strong.

This kid is simply a monster. He has seen the Ruyi Jin technique, but no matter how he looks at it, it is not a technique that can lead directly to the level of a grandmaster. He really doesn't understand how Zhou Chen succeeded.

After all, he had been a grandmaster for decades, so how could he be willing to lose to a young man who was less than 20 years old? So as the fight went on, he gradually increased his energy and started to fight for real.

Zhou Chen was not surprised but happy. Good guy, I gave you face and didn't explode, but you got excited first. In that case, I won't be polite either.

As a result, the fight between the two became louder and louder. Ku He used the nuclear radiation energy between heaven and earth for his own use, creating quite a stir, and Zhou Chen also released his sword intent.

In an instant, the sword intent soared into the sky, and the sky seemed to be torn apart by Zhou Chen's sword intent. Ku He used his true energy to counter Zhou Chen's sword intent.

Zhou Chen stretched out his hand, and the sword of a palace guard commander below soared uncontrollably into the sky and fell into Zhou Chen's hands.

With sword in hand, Zhou Chen's sword intent became stronger. The palace under his feet could not withstand his true energy and collapsed. The same happened to Ku He over there.

Different from the previous close combat collision of body techniques, the collision of true Qi and sword Qi was like a cannon explosion, with an extremely terrifying sound.

"boom!"

The two men rushed into a palace, and the moment they touched, terrifying power erupted, and half of the entire palace collapsed.

Seeing the noise caused by the battle between Zhou Chen and Ku He, the spectators all swallowed their saliva. With the aftermath of this battle, a ninth-rank master would be torn to pieces if he got close, right?

Zhan Doudou's eyes twitched. In just such a short period of time, many buildings had been destroyed by the battle. Although there were many palaces in the imperial palace, they could not withstand such an attack.

Suppressing the fear in her heart, she decisively gave orders, telling the guards to obey orders at all times, but not to act rashly without orders.

The huge commotion in the palace also attracted the attention of people outside the palace who did not know the truth.

For a moment, countless people turned their eyes to the palace, thinking that a mutiny had occurred inside the palace. Especially those soldiers who held military power became nervous.

Even though they were ordered by the Queen Mother and the young Emperor to keep their troops in place, countless people were still concerned.

There were some powerful masters who quickly realized that the noise in the palace might be a battle between strong men, but they couldn't tell what kind of fight would cause such a big noise.

The sword intent that soared into the sky was truly too terrifying.

Many people had guesses in their minds that only a grandmaster could cause such a commotion.

But why would the Grand Master fight in the Da Qi Palace?

After destroying many buildings in the palace, Ku He finally came to his senses. He knew that if he continued like this, the palace would be destroyed before he and Zhou Chen could decide the winner.

So he stopped at the right time. As soon as he stopped, Zhou Chen did not take advantage of the situation and stopped as well.

There was no need for words. Zhou Chen and Ku He looked at each other and understood what Ku He meant.

As the two people's true energy circulated, the sky seemed to become darker, and a terrifying aura emanated from Zhou Chen and Ku He.

The crowd who originally wanted to get closer to watch the fight suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly retreated.

"Master, are they going to decide the winner?"
