Chapter 338 Small Competition, No. 1: Zhang Xuanlong
(Most of the content is about weaklings fighting each other; unimportant characters will not be described in detail. The family competition ends in this chapter.)
Next came the destruction of the Azure Sea Immortal Sect.
The two stood facing each other.
That's right, Zhang Xuanzi has no intention of admitting defeat.
No matter what, he is a swordsman. If he doesn't even have the courage to draw his sword when facing a powerful opponent, then what right does he have to call himself a member of the Xuanxiao Mountain and the Zhang family?
You should at least know the difference between the two.
With the magic sword in hand and a determined look in his eyes, he said, "Brother Wan Jun, please enlighten me!"
Zhang Wanjun showed no arrogance or contempt despite the opponent's weakness.
The Purple Spirit Magic Sword in his hand flashed with lightning.
He bowed with his sword in hand and said, "Brother Xuanzi, I will do my best."
His master once taught him that giving your all is the greatest respect you can show to others.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanzi's lips twitched.
But they didn't say anything.
……
"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Look at Xuan Zi's expression."
"What are you laughing at? I only know that people who want to win can't laugh... Pfft!"
Seeing Zhang Xuanzi's expression, the surrounding clansmen burst into laughter.
There was no mockery in the laughter; it was just pure laughter.
On the viewing platform.
The elders couldn't help but chuckle.
Ninth Elder Zhang Hongwen said:
"What a pity. If Xuan Zi hadn't been so unlucky, he probably could have won a few matches."
"My Zhang family still has too few members. Only thirty-two members participated in the first family competition."
Only eight of them reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
It's really a bit shabby.
Hearing this, Zhang Guangyao didn't take it seriously: "What's the big deal?"
In a few decades or even a hundred years, my Zhang family will surely produce many geniuses.
Crowded.
Isn't that how all those powerful and long-standing factions started?
So, who do you think will win this competition, Xuanlong or Wanjun?
I think if Xuanlong didn't have the help of the Thunder God, he would definitely be number one in the competition.
But with Thor added, things might be different.
"Wouldn't that be a bit unfair?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen replied with a smile, "Beast tamers and spirit beasts are inseparable."
When a cultivator chooses to walk the path of a beast tamer and cultivates beast-taming techniques, it means that he must give up his personal bravery and choose to fight in cooperation with his beasts.
At the same time, a lot of time and resources must be spent on one's own beasts.
"If we don't allow the use of tamed beasts during the competition, that would be the greatest injustice."
"Moreover, Xuanlong was able to achieve such great success because of his own physical constitution."
How could an ordinary beast tamer, with a body possessing four spiritual roots, break through three minor realms in just over two years?
Ultimately, it's because Xuanlong himself has high talent.
If Wan Jun is defeated, it's because he's not as skilled as the other.
Just focus on improving yourself.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hongwen and the other elders and hall masters nodded in deep agreement.
That's absolutely right.
As high-ranking members of the Zhang family, they knew that Zhang Xuanlong possessed a special physique.
Therefore, no one objected to Zhang Xuanchen's idea of handing over both purple-gold war lions to Zhang Xuanlong.
Support yourself with both hands and feet.
Those with special physical constitutions should be trained in this way.
While they were talking on the viewing platform, inside the martial arts arena, Zhang Xuanzi had already been knocked away by a sword and sent flying out of the arena.
The gap is too big.
It's unstoppable, absolutely unstoppable!
Zhang Hongguan wasted no time and immediately started the next match.
"The second match is between Zhang Hongmian and Zhang Xuanhe."
……
Time flies, and noon arrives in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the family competition was also nearing its end.
On the martial arts stage.
Zhang Xuanyue was forced to retreat steadily by a giant tiger.
Although Zhang Xuanyue's swordsmanship was exceptionally agile, he was still no match for Thor at the same level.
The physical bodies of demonic beasts far surpass those of cultivators, not to mention that the Thunder God possesses the potential to advance to the Golden Core stage.
"Stop, stop, stop, Thor, stop! I surrender!"
Having narrowly escaped Thor's strike, Zhang Xuanyue decisively conceded defeat.
If you can't even beat someone else's tamed beasts, how can you win?
Seeing Zhang Xuanyue admit defeat, Thor immediately stopped what he was doing.
It nuzzled Zhang Xuanyue's arm with its head.
It had completely lost its former brilliance.
It looks completely different from its previous appearance.
Zhang Xuanlong walked up to Zhang Xuanyue with a smile.
He didn't make a move just now.
It wasn't because he looked down on Zhang Xuanyue, but because Zhang Xuanyue himself requested to fight the Thunder God in order to hone his magic.
"My dear sister Xuan Yue, you flatter me."
"Sigh, Brother Long, I really don't know how you cultivated. You clearly have four spiritual roots, yet you were able to reach the seventh level of Qi Refining in such a short time."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanlong smiled mysteriously and said, "I had a little bit of a lucky encounter."
Zhang Xuanyue simply rolled her eyes at this, clearly not believing it.
If it were truly just a minor stroke of luck, Zhang Xuanlong would definitely have told everyone.
The reason it's described as a minor adventure is because it must be a secret.
Without delving deeper, he said, "Next up is your battle with Wan Jun."
Let us see your true strength.
come on."
After saying that, he jumped off the martial arts stage.
Before Zhang Hongguan could call for reinforcements, Zhang Wanjun took the initiative to go up on stage, his eyes filled with fighting spirit as he looked at Zhang Xuanlong in front of him.
Zhang Xuanlong is the same.
Seeing this, Zhang Hongguan didn't waste any words and said:
"During the competition, no external force may be used, no one may be intentionally injured, and the contest shall end when the point is reached."
But you must give it your all. With me watching, you can go all out.
Do you understand?
"Understood!" they both replied in unison.
"Alright, let the competition begin!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Zhang Wanjun immediately started attacking with zero frames.
"Thunderbolt Sword Technique, First Form—Thunderous Strike!"
He channeled the thunderous energy from his palm into the tip of his sword.
The sword trembled and emitted bursts of thunder.
call out!
The Thunder Sword thrust straight out, transforming into a bolt of lightning.
It felt as if everything was about to shatter.
As the lightning drew ever closer, Zhang Xuanlong's pupils contracted.
But there was no panic.
He formed hand seals, let out a low roar, and his body burst forth with a golden light.
"Diamond Body Protection!"
boom!
The moment golden light enveloped his entire body, the thunder sword also came crashing down.
The terrifying lightning force instantly shattered the golden energy shield.
Zhang Xuanlong felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his blood and qi surged violently.
Just as Zhang Wanjun was about to press his advantage, a tiger's roar came from behind him.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a chill down my back.
Before he could turn around, he instinctively used the blade of his sword to shield his back.
Lightning energy emanated from the sword.
boom!
The tiger's claws slammed down on the sword.
The terrifying force sent Zhang Wanjun flying.
The lightning energy on the sword also seeped onto the tiger's claws.
However, Thor is a thunder-attribute demon beast, and these ten directions of thunder energy cannot cause it much damage.
On the contrary, Zhang Wanjun, who was sent flying, tumbled several times in the air before finally managing to stabilize himself at the very edge of the martial arts stage by using the Thunder Step technique.
He looked at Thor with a solemn expression.
