Chapter 41: The Strongest Name(1/2)
With one knife, Zhang Yuan seemed to have done something effortless. He slowly put his hands behind his back and looked coldly under the ring. Below, all the people who were swept by Zhang Yuan's eyes avoided Zhang Yuan's eyes.
"I have been guarding this arena from now on. Anyone of you can come up to challenge it. I only use one move. Within one move, don't blame me for the work I can't hold on."
Zhang Yuan's voice floated calmly, accompanied by cold gazes, even the barbarians who came to watch the battle were moved by it.
Of course, many people's evaluation of Zhang Yuan's words was arrogant and he only made one move. Zhang Yuan was swearing to everyone present that no one here could catch his move. How arrogant and arrogant is this.
At this moment, it was not just the Mercenary Alliance and the Dungeon. Even the pirate alliance with Zhang Yuan was his own and the strong ones among the onlookers could not help but clench their fists.
Although it is powerful to kill three swords with one sword, there are definitely many people who can do this here. At this moment, Zhang Yuan’s provocation is absolutely unacceptable. People who practice martial arts are passionate and like to compare with each other even if they are fine. At this moment, the gathering is a time to show the power of the three major forces. Once in three years, this is the time for masters to become famous, so people who are very easy to be afraid of death or are full of confidence stand up to let Zhang Yuan see what a real master is.
The first person to stand out was not from a dungeon. This force living in the barbarian settlement may still have unfathomable connotations, but in terms of courage, it is no longer comparable to the other two forces.
The first one to stand out was a master of the Mercenary Alliance. This is a master of sword making. In this universe, killing is the theme. Most people like long swords that can fully reflect the meaning of killing. Although there are many masters of sword making, few people have used swords to kill. Most of the masters of sword making seem to be the leaders of some major forces. Most of the reason they use swords is because swords can fit their identities, but they have few opportunities to fight for life and death.
Zhang Yuan looked at the person who jumped up lightly. Although he was so arrogant that he said those words just now, Zhang Yuan would never underestimate anyone.
The mercenary alliance members had just jumped up and there were loud cheers coming from below, especially the mercenary alliance members who were roaring loudly. It was obvious that this person had a great reputation in the mercenary alliance.
"It's Juhe. He is a rare kendo master in your mercenary alliance. Are you not afraid of him leaving here?"
Under the ring, Yue's smile was still extremely calm. He looked at the swordsman standing on the ring and showed a calm and mysterious smile. Swordsman may be fine to deal with ordinary people, but when dealing with Zhang Yuan, Yue knew that even if the skilled master was one level higher than Zhang Yuan, he could only be in a state of death without living. What's more, it would be so difficult to be one level higher than Zhang Yuan.
"Not all, Juhe is the only kendo master in our mercenary alliance. Few people have seen him take action because there are too few people worthy of his take action. I hope this person in your Pirate Alliance can be worthy of him pulling out his own sword."
Shi Yan's voice sounded coldly, and Shi Yan felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart for Zhang Yuan's arrogance. He could not tolerate the arrogance of the Pirate Alliance and did not take the Mercenary Alliance into consideration.
Juhe stood on the ring and looked at Zhang Yuan with cold eyes. Like all the masters, Juhe felt unconvinced from the bottom of his heart about what Zhang Yuan said before, so Juhe walked onto the ring. He was not for his reputation, but just because he was uncomfortable with what Zhang Yuan said.
"I hope you are qualified to let me draw my sword."
Juhe looked at Zhang Yuan coldly. Zhang Yuan said Zhang Kuang before, but Juhe was even more arrogant than Zhang Yuan. Even though the sword was the weapon of the king, the martial arts people were born with the spirit of martial arts that was not second-rate, which was definitely not covered by the so-called weapon of the king.
"Is it fun, interesting."
Zhang Yuan smiled and looked at Juhe with great interest. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked like a kind old man, but Juhe, who was staring at him for a moment, felt a little uneasy. His eyes were originally a window of the soul, and it was said that the eyes were the only place where human souls appeared. If they were stared at by a pair of eyes for a long time, unless the owner of these eyes was your elder or a very friendly friend with you, you might feel furrowed all over.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan's eyes seemed to be gradually turning into non-human pupils. The feeling seemed that the one staring at him was no longer a pair of human eyes, but a pair of demonic eyes from hell.
"One move, I only use one move, I hope you can catch my move."
Zhang Yuan's voice suddenly rang coldly, and suddenly Juhe felt that the world seemed to disappear, and the endless aura of killing spread. The whole world seemed to become a battlefield, but he was standing among the thousands of corpses.
Zhang Yuan's eyes were cold. From the beginning of Ju He's walking onto the ring, Zhang Yuan rescued him and saw that Ju He was a powerful man who was extremely powerful but had not experienced much killing. So at the beginning, Zhang Yuan made up his mind to crush Ju He with his momentum.
Zhang Yuan has experienced many life-and-death battles since his debut, but Zhang Yuan himself no longer remembers, and the people who died under Zhang Yuan's long sword are probably enough to form a legion. At this time, when Zhang Yuan released his murderous aura with all his strength, he seemed to be in a hell within a radius of one kilometer.
In normal times, even with such aura, Juhe would never be able to fall into Juhe. However, at this moment, Zhang Yuan's seemingly gentle but deeply murderous eyes stared for a long time. Juhe had already unknowingly fell into the trap that Zhang Yuan deliberately set for him.
"kill"
A roar like a thunderous roar sounded in Juhe's ears. In an instant, Juhe felt his head tremble, and the roar rippled from the depths of his brain, and accompanied by a rippling brain was a shiny sword light. The sword energy was like a horse, Juhe only felt that the whole world seemed to be lit up.
On the ring, Zhang Yuan quickly flashed past Juhe, and everyone under the ring seemed to feel a white light flashing between Zhang Yuan and Juhe. Then Zhang Yuan stood behind Juhe like the previous three swords, quieting on the ring, and quieting under the ring.
Shi Yan clenched his fists, and his whole body was already trembling slightly. Others might have seen only a white light, but he saw Zhang Yuan's knife slashing Ju He's neck. One knife, just one knife. It was not even a move. Ju He was beheaded like this.
What is this? Shi Yan doesn't know how to say it anymore. He boasted that the number one master of the kendo in the mercenary alliance who had been boasting for a long time was beheaded.
A faint doubt flashed in Juhe's eyes. His mouth opened slightly, as if he wanted to ask something, but without waiting for any sound, Juhe's head had fallen from his neck. The body that lost his head swayed and took two steps ahead and fell to the ground.
From beginning to end, Juhe didn't even have time to pull out the sword. The people under the ring no longer knew what to say.
It was like a group of little chickens and ducklings who could only chirp and were suddenly targeted by a fierce beast, even the screams in fear had disappeared. Everyone was staring at Zhang Yuan, who was standing on the ring like a god of war.
"It's a disappointing thing. I was killed so easily. I will continue to guard the ring, hoping to find someone who can give me a second blow."
Zhang Yuan's voice sounded again. Quiet, peaceful. With a faint slight wave, the people who listened to this sentence were different from each other. If the death of the three swords could be said to be underestimating the enemy, then Ju He's death was a true reflection of Zhang Yuan's strength. With such a person, such a knife, who would dare to say that he would be able to block a move? No, absolutely nothing.
"Juhe's death is no longer a martial art, but Juhe has not fought a life-and-death battle with people for too long, so Juhe was already suppressed by Zhang Yuan's momentum at the beginning. Otherwise, even if Zhang Yuan could defeat Juhe, he would be less than a hundred moves, and it would be absolutely impossible to kill Juhe."
Shi Yan's voice sounded calmly, his voice was not loud, but at least the large circle of people standing close to him could hear it clearly. When he said this, Shi Yan's eyes were looking at Yue. It seemed that this sentence was just saying it to Yue, although less than three minutes after he said this sentence had spread to everyone present.
Yue smiled faintly. He could naturally see what Shi Yan meant, but he did not intend to argue with Shi Yan. He just tilted his head slightly.
"Perhaps someone can block Zhang Yuan's hundred moves. In fact, I am also looking forward to someone who can block Zhang Yuan's hundred moves. I think such a person who can block and defeat me must be an amazing man."
Yue's voice was also not loud. He tilted his head and seemed to be just talking to Shi Yan, but the same words of the large circle of people standing behind him could also be heard clearly. In less than three minutes, this sentence had spread throughout the square.
The person who defeated Yue, the influence of these words spread far more than Shi Yan's previous words. Who is Yue? One of the four major talkers in the Pirate Alliance, although it may not be the strongest among the four, it is definitely one of the three strong people.
If Zhang Yuan could defeat Yue, it means that Zhang Yuan had already had the capital to compare with the three major forces. Who dares to say that he can defeat such a person? No, definitely not.
The masters who had originally heard Shi Yan's words and planned to go up and communicate with Zhang Yuan were silent here. Just kidding, even if these masters were confident, they would never dare to say that they could defeat the three major forces.
Shi Yan's face turned a little blue after hearing Yue's words. He said that just to stimulate others to go to the stage to fight Zhang Yuan, but he didn't expect that Yue would admit defeat to Zhang Yuan on such an occasion. As soon as this was said, the people who originally planned to fight Zhang Yuan began to give up, but this was something Shi Yan was extremely reluctant to see.
"When he defeated you, wouldn't it mean that whoever can defeat him has the strength that is comparable to us? This is a rare good thing. If anyone wants to become famous, wouldn't he have to take this opportunity?"
Shi Yan spoke lightly again, and the matter of being able to become the person of the three major forces was not to mention anything else. At least it was unattainable in this regard. Shi Yan's extremely light words once again pushed Zhang Yuan to the forefront. Suddenly, all the eyes of the three major forces who considered themselves masters emitted a light like a vicious wolf seeing prey.
What is the concept of being able to compare with the three major forces in an instant, and no matter who gains this reputation, his value will immediately increase by more than a hundred times. If this person is a mercenary, then he may only be able to get hundreds of thousands of imperial shields once a mission is worth a lot, and after gaining this reputation, he will get tens of millions of imperial shields once.
Fame may be moving, but it is not enough to make people fight to the death. Interests may be moving, but there may be choices and considerations in front of life. However, when fame and interests are tied together, 99% of people may be crazy and will fight to the death.
Zhang Yuan is very strong. How could the person who can defeat Yue not be strong? However, Yue, one of the people involved, has not taken action for a long time. Most of the people of the three major forces have forgotten Yue's horror and inferred it once. Many people have no idea about Zhang Yuan's strength in their hearts.
With three swords, at least hundreds of people can be killed easily on the scene, Juhe. If there is a sneak attack, there will be thousands of people on the scene who can kill Juhe.
So, since Zhang Yuan’s strength is no longer a concept. Since everyone has the opportunity to defeat him, why should Zhang Yuan occupy this strong position alone? Why should Zhang Yuan win both fame and fortune?
More than ten people jumped up on the ring, because the more than ten people were closer to the ring. It was also because the ring was not big enough that the people behind were about to fly up but had already found that the ring was full. If the ring was bigger, I would probably have at least dozens of people coming up.
Looking at Zhang Yuan, who appeared on the ring, showed a faint smile. He looked at the more than ten people with calm eyes. Each of these guys was very strong, and a few of them were even stronger than Juhejia, but Zhang Yuan laughed out loud.
"Are you guys going together?"
Zhang Yuan's voice was extremely calm, as if he was asking an irrelevant question. The indifferent but more than any arrogant words were hurtful. These more than ten people were originally arrogant and arrogant. They also wanted to show Zhang Yuan a good look on the stage. If they win, they might even humiliate Zhang Yuan first and then kill Zhang Yuan. But now they have been humiliated by Zhang Yuan before they can start fighting.
More than a dozen people's eyes were slightly red. These people looked at each other and used their eyes to warn their companions who came up together to give up the ring.
The three major forces all live in the Sanyi District, and have three-year gatherings. These people know more or less. Even if they don’t know each other, they can guess their identities based on their appearance characteristics. Their reputation in the Sanyi District is similar. No one is more special. Although they are all masters, they are all masters who are different from those who are talking about them.
At this moment, more than a dozen people warned each other with their eyes, but no one planned to quit, which made Shi Yan under the ring unable to help but want to curse.
Unlike these more than ten people, Zhang Yuan looked at them with a faint smile. The look seemed to be not looking at more than ten people, but looking at more than ten pigs waiting to be killed.
In fact, if these more than ten people take turns to take it, they can really bring some trouble to Zhang Yuan, and at least they can consume Zhang Yuan's considerable energy.
Although the system is invincible, the move that the system compresses to invincible cannot be used unlimitedly. Just two swords have actually consumed a lot of money on Zhang Yuan. If the people below would not wait for a long time after every battle, I'm afraid Zhang Yuan would have begun to worry about whether he could hold on.
This time, more than ten people jumped up after Shi Yan's provocation. If these more than ten people really came up one by one in order, then the repeated challenges would be enough to consume most of Zhang Yuan's strength. Next, you only need to follow this trend and go on a few more waves. I'm afraid that Zhang Yuan would have no other way except to escape from the panic.
However, just like what Zhang Yuan expected, these more than ten people did not accept each other and challenged each other with their eyes, but no one was willing to withdraw.
They stared at each other here, but Zhang Yuan slowly felt the trace of energy that had just been consumed in his body due to the two consecutive strikes being restored.
After a long time, the ring still maintained the tendency of more than ten statues standing. None of the more than ten people spoke, but none of them were willing to retreat. Zhang Yuan looked at the more than ten people with interesting eyes, and the eyes seemed to be looking at a group of idiots, and the energy in his body had completely recovered.
"You seem to be planning to join together, so I can't refuse you. Then, you can take me one blow together, I will only use one blow. If you can avoid it, even if you are lucky, don't blame me if you can't."
It was still the same as before, but in this case it was a great insult to these more than ten people. Zhang Yuan only made one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow. Now he still only made one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow when he was one blow. It makes people easily think that these more than ten people seem to be able to beat the previous one.
However, without waiting for these more than ten men to make any rebuttal voices, Zhang Yuan had already stepped out. This time, Zhang Yuan was different from before. He did not choose to wait for others to take action first, nor did he use any irrelevant momentum to assist in the battle. Instead, he took a step forward and then drew his sword.
The sword light was like lightning, and this sword could not be said or something. But when this sword was shot out, everyone on the ring only felt that this sword was coming for them, and almost everyone subconsciously used their own martial arts to meet the sword.
There are more than ten people, but there is only one sword. The moves of more than ten people face one sword at the same time. The direct consequence is that the moves of more than ten people are tied together. It seems intentional and unintentional. The sword that Zhang Yuan attacked slightly sinks. The moves of more than ten people fail one after another, but they hit each other together.
More than ten people and more than ten moves were entangled with each other, but they each offset their respective strengths. At this time, Zhang Yuan's long sword appeared like a ghost, just a knife, and this sword drew a perfect arc and quietly wiped the necks of more than ten people.
This time, Zhang Yuan used his sword at a speed, and also slashed more than ten people's necks. Everyone under the ring saw this knife clearly. This seemed like an extremely simple knife. If more than ten people had not verified this knife with their lives, many people would have guessed whether Zhang Yuan had invited more than a dozen people to act in a big show. This knife was really a bit of a play, but it made anyone recognize its strength.
Standing quietly on the ring, Zhang Yuan's eyebrows were slightly lowered, as if he was remembering Gang's sword. Around Zhang Yuan, more than a dozen masters who were originally divided into three major forces stood there in shock with weapons. The more than ten people seemed to have an incredible look in their eyes. Their hands that did not hold weapons were even pressed on their necks, but their lives were far away from them.
Quiet, absolutely quiet, unparalleled quiet, no one knows what to say. It can be said that killing three swords in one blow is because three swords underestimate the enemy. Killing Juhe can be said that Juhe fell into Zhang Yuan's trap, but at this moment, what reasons can you find to kill more than ten masters in one blow?
No, there is no reason at all. Even Shi Yan, who has always been dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan, doesn’t know what else to say, Shi Yan, who always wants to find someone to give Zhang Yuan a good look, doesn’t know what else to say.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Yue's mouth, but his eyes were filled with deep shock. Although he had absolute confidence in Zhang Yuan before, he did not expect that Zhang Yuan could use a quick and neat sword to kill more than ten strong men when facing more than ten masters attacking together.
"This is, what kind of knife technique?"
After a long time, an extremely weak voice finally sounded, and this voice also brought everyone to their senses. This question also emerged from the depths of everyone's mind, what kind of sword technique can have such great power.
Behind the square, a faint light flashed in the eyes of the barbarians from the three major forces. At this moment, even these barbarians who had always looked down on humans became extremely curious about Zhang Yuan's sword technique.
He took a deep breath and everyone saw Zhang Yuan's killing in seconds, but no one knew that the consumption of this knife was more than dozens of times that of Zhang Yuan's previous killing of three swords and Juhe. Even Zhang Yuan's current strength was definitely not enough to support Zhang Yuan to use such Taoist moves three times in a row.
But I have to say that this move is absolutely beautiful. If it weren't for the shock caused by this beauty, Zhang Yuan would never use this sword. In fact, if Zhang Yuan did not use the sword like this, it would be no difficulty to kill more than ten masters. At most, he would just wave the long sword a few more times.
The long sword slowly retracted into the scabbard, and Zhang Yuan slowly raised his head. He naturally wanted to continue to keep this quiet so that the energy in his body would be restored a little more, but Zhang Yuan also knew that if he delayed it, someone would probably doubt whether his physical strength was exhausted because of this sword, so he had to look up. And not only did he just look up, he also needed to challenge the lower body immediately.
Only rampant and unparalleled rampant can make everyone afraid of him and prevent everyone from coming out to challenge him casually.
Zhang Yuan looked at the square under the ring calmly. His voice was not loud, but it was heard by the whole audience.
"Who else wants to challenge me? I am still guarding this arena. Anyone who wants to challenge me can come up. I still say the same thing. As long as I can be a knife, I will give it a way out. If you can't even stop a knife, don't blame me."
In a calm voice, Zhang Yuan's tone was not arrogant, but when everyone heard this sentence again, they felt a domineering aura coming to their faces.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan is no longer the nameless man at the beginning. The three challenges are enough to prove Zhang Yuan's strength. At least 80% of the people here have lost their confidence in challenging Zhang Yuan. The only remaining emotions for Zhang Yuan and others are already fear and boundless fear.
Of course, there must be still some people who are not convinced, and there are quite a few. But even those who are not convinced dare not go up and challenge Zhang Yuan casually at this moment. They only dare to stand under the ring and wait for others to go up and take the lead first. At least they have to force Zhang Yuan to use a few more swords to study what kind of swordsmanship Zhang Yuan is using.
To be continued...
