Volume 2: Boundless Walker Chapter 54: Start of the competition and surprise!
Looking at Goethe in front of him and the invitation on the table, the security committee member of the '10th Unlimited Fighting Tournament' was a little confused.
Although they were still in school when the last Unlimited Fighting Tournament was held every ten years, as the people responsible for registration this time, they knew something.
On the contrary, they tried hard and carefully watched various materials and videos of previous competitions.
So, they knew that in the last session, the first player to walk to the sign-in area for the qualifying round was at 5:13 - the opponent also entered the venue at midnight.
But it took more than five hours of hard work to successfully register.
And the eighth?
The first registration was not until nine o'clock in the morning.
The seventh session is at 7am.
Sixth, fifth, fourth...
The memories in the minds of the two staff members kept moving forward and suddenly stopped at the first session.
In the 'First Unlimited Fighting Tournament', some people completed the registration just as the clock struck midnight.
That player is...
'Martial Saint' Zhao was shocked!
Zhao Jingjue, the "Martial Saint" who created the "Secret Martial Arts", founded the "First Unlimited Fighting Tournament", and finally shattered the void !
hiss!
The two staff members gasped.
They stared at Goethe in amazement.
It was not until Zote came running over that the two came to their senses.
One person is responsible for registration and stamping.
One person is responsible for explaining the precautions.
"Contestant Goethe, please wait in the lounge until the other contestants have gathered. We will then need to conduct a draw ceremony."
The staff pointed to the players' lounge which was temporarily converted from a park sales point.
"OK."
"Can I use the equipment inside?"
Goethe glanced at the temporary lounge, and his eyes lit up when he saw the sausage machine, popcorn machine, and beverage machine, especially when he discovered that there were still a lot of raw materials.
"Of course, there are food and water prepared inside, and the contestants can use them as they wish."
The staff member said immediately.
Goethe walked towards the contestants' lounge in a good mood.
Zote followed behind with a complicated look on his face.
“I thought it would be difficult.”
The acting branch chairman of the Green Vine City Security Committee smiled bitterly.
"I'm the first one, and I look very strong. There are 15 more people after me. Why would you take the risk of choosing someone like me who looks tough to deal with instead of the weaker ones behind me?"
Goethe asked back as he deftly opened the sausage machine, popcorn machine, and beverage machine.
"Seek benefits and avoid harm?"
Zot muttered to himself.
"You can also say that you bully the weak and fear the strong."
"How do I get this beverage machine to work?"
"Zot, can you do it?"
Goethe successfully opened the sausage machine and popcorn machine, but the beverage machine was a little different and he had some trouble figuring it out.
“Leave it to me!”
"I worked part-time at a beverage store before—Hey, I'm from a martial arts school!"
Zot smiled and patted his chest. Then, the acting branch chairman of the Green Ivy City Security Committee looked at the TV screen in surprise - in addition to food and drinks, the contestant room also had sofas and TVs.
There are two TVs, one is fixed at the door and the other follows the contestants.
At this moment, on the TV at the door, three figures were standing there.
Two men and one woman, dressed in tight clothes.
The two men were wearing fingerless boxing gloves, and the woman was holding a long sword.
"It's Zhentian, Longxing and Juying Martial Arts School."
"They, together with Tianshuang and Sihai martial arts schools who gave up their invitations, are collectively known as the five major martial arts schools in Luteng City."
"Zhentian Martial Arts School is good at palm techniques, Longxing Martial Arts School is good at boxing techniques , and Juying Martial Arts School is good at sword techniques."
Zote explained to Goethe.
Then, the acting branch chairman of the Green Vine City Security Committee sighed.
"If Tianshuang and Sihai Martial Arts School had not given up their invitations, it would have been easy for them to pass the preliminaries given the level of familiarity of the five major martial arts schools."
In fact, this is true.
Whether Zote knew it or not, the people lying in ambush around him also knew it.
The moment the three of them stepped into the East City Amusement Park, an ambush occurred.
There is no need for television broadcast. Goethe can see more clearly with the vision of [Blood Raven Spirit]—
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Hidden weapons such as sleeve arrows, flying knives, and locust stones shot towards the three people in the martial arts hall like raindrops.
The woman holding the sword has her clothes fluttering and her movements are light and graceful. The long sword in her hand is like a shuttle on a loom, shuttling back and forth quickly. Every time, the tip of the sword can knock away the hidden weapon.
The two people standing on both sides used fists and palms.
The boxer has great force and a violent temper. Every time he throws the hidden weapon, he not only has to catch it but also has to throw it back in the direction it came from.
The person who uses the palm attack is light and erratic, keeping his eyes and ears open. Whenever a hidden weapon suddenly penetrates the defense of the person who uses the fist attack, he can always fill in the gap in time and knock the hidden weapon away.
The three of them knew each other and worked together skillfully, so for a while many hidden weapons were completely powerless.
All I could do was watch the three people approach the registration office step by step.
"kill!"
With a loud shout, a figure jumped out from the shadows.
He raised the steel knife above his head and chopped it down heavily.
bite!
The woman from Juying Martial Arts School raised the long sword in her hand, but as soon as the two touched, the light sword nodded like a spirit snake and quickly tapped the steel blade three times.
Suddenly, the steel knife was knocked crooked, and the person holding the knife could no longer control his body and fell from mid-air.
Bang!
The boxer threw a punch, hitting the one holding the knife.
The latter flew four or five meters away, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
But then a long sword stabbed him.
Unlike the chopped steel knife just now, the owner of this long sword was obviously on guard. His long sword did not entangle with the long sword of the woman from Juying Martial Arts School. He moved forward and backward quickly, and each sword attacked the enemy's vital points. However, each time the long sword of the woman from Juying Martial Arts School only turned slightly, she forced the opponent back. After three quick moves, the sword holder was injured.
The opponent made a feint, retreated again, and shouted loudly -
"Everyone is here for the invitation. Now there is no need to talk about morality. Let's all stand together."
With a shout, more people came out from the darkness around.
In the blink of an eye, an almost airtight encirclement was formed.
"ah!"
Faced with such an encirclement, the man who was practicing boxing in Longxing Martial Arts School roared angrily, and instead of retreating, he rushed into the encirclement alone. Suddenly, the people around him were overjoyed and quickly separated the encirclement, preparing to deal with one person first.
But before this small encirclement was formed, the boxer from Longxing Martial Arts School suddenly grabbed the nearest ambusher and, like he was swinging a sledgehammer, he started chopping left and right.
In an instant, a larger hole was opened in the small encirclement.
This forced the other person in the encirclement to distract their attention, and also gave the two people from Juying Martial Arts School and Zhentian Martial Arts School a chance to catch their breath. The palm master from Zhentian Martial Arts School took a deep breath, gathered his strength, and shouted loudly -
"Open the mountain!"
Woo!
The dull palm wind made people's scalps numb. A pair of fleshy palms hit the ambusher beside him heavily. The latter immediately flew up like a rolling log and stone, hitting more people. The powerful force turned a group of people into rolling gourds.
Immediately, the encirclement was broken.
The two encirclements were broken at the same time.
"Walk!"
The woman from Juying Martial Arts School shouted, holding a sword in one hand, grabbed the pale-faced master from Zhentian Martial Arts School with the other, and rushed forward.
Obviously, the palm strike just now made the palm user of Zhentian Martial Arts School lose his combat effectiveness.
The fighter from Longxing Martial Arts School followed, still holding the dead ambusher in his hands, and kept swinging his fist.
“Stop them!”
“They can’t do it anymore!”
Someone among the ambushers shouted.
But before he could finish his words, he saw the long sword in the hand of the woman from Juying Martial Arts School turned into a streak of light, the blade was as cold as frost, and pierced through her chest.
The lurker who had just shouted looked down at the long sword in front of his chest in disbelief. As the sword was pulled out, he immediately fell to the ground.
The woman from Juying Martial Arts School was also shaking.
Then, two people, including the woman from Juying Martial Arts School and the palm master from Zhentian Martial Arts School, were carried up by the fist master from Longxing Martial Arts School. The fist master rushed towards the registration office like a mad bull, completely ignoring the fists, kicks and swords coming towards him.
Bang bang bang!
Ding ding ding!
The punches and kicks that hit the fighters of Longxing Martial Arts School were like being hit by leather.
The swords and knives hit the boxers of Longxing Martial Arts School as if they were hitting metal.
"Iron Shirt!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
But the attacks did not stop at all, instead they became more and more intense.
Gradually, scars appeared on the bodies of the boxers of Longxing Martial Arts School.
The iron vest is not a panacea.
If you exceed your tolerance limit, you will still get hurt.
One injury, two injuries.
Gradually, the boxer from Longxing Martial Arts School turned into a blood gourd, but the boxer still carried his two companions firmly and rushed to the registration office.
"Zhentian, Longxing, and Juying martial arts schools sign up!"
The boxer shouted loudly.
Three invitations landed on the table.
The attack stopped instantly.
According to the rules, once the contestant's invitation letter falls on the table, it means that they have successfully passed the preliminary round.
"I didn't expect that Long Xing Martial Arts School actually has a secret martial art like 'Iron Shirt'."
"And the 'Secret Weapon. Mountain-Splitting Palm' of Zhentian Martial Arts School is also very powerful."
"It is a perfect match with the 'Secret Weapon. Three Elements Sword' of the Juying Martial Arts School. Moreover, they have obviously made a careful plan - using the boxers of the Dragon Shape Martial Arts School as bait to lure the people around. In fact, it is a setup. The 'Mountain Opening Palm' opens a gap, and the 'Three Elements Sword' kills people to establish prestige."
Watching the broadcast on TV, Zote couldn't help but admire it.
Goethe took out the sausage from the refrigerator without commenting.
The coordination is really good.
It’s also true that there are plans.
But being able to get through so many ambushes is...
'luck'!
In the vision of the [Blood Crow Spirit], only one-third of the ambushers took action, while more people just stood by and watched.
Why?
It is possible that he was concerned about the strength of the three people.
What is more likely is that he was concerned about the power of the three martial arts schools.
After all, the world of martial arts is not about fighting and killing, but about the ways of the world.
It's like grilled sausage, not only has the original flavor, but also black pepper.
The former has a crispy and chewy texture.
The latter is spicy and tempting.
Especially when the heat reaches a certain degree, the skin of the sausage casing will crack open with a "snap" sound, revealing the fat and tender meat, that is when the grilled sausage is most delicious.
Goethe picked up two sausages like bamboo sticks, and then put more sausages in the oven.
"It's a pity there's no charcoal fire, otherwise it would taste better."
Goethe said this.
Zuo Te, standing beside him, nodded without saying anything.
The acting branch chairman of the Green Vine City Security Committee was once again drawn to the television.
A total of seven people appeared in front of the East City Amusement Park.
The six men were wearing black armor and black helmets, holding spears, carrying bows and crossbows on their backs, and long swords on their waists, and they all looked murderous.
A person in a white long skirt, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a cute face and a bun, was looking around curiously.
"Is this the registration place for the preliminaries in Green Vine City?"
"Yes, ma'am ."
One of the six said.
"Well, let's go sign up quickly. I can't wait to meet that guy."
The girl said immediately.
"Yes, ma'am."
The one among the six people answered.
There was no change in the voice or tone, just like the spears in their hands, every shot was just right, no more, no less... deadly.
Every time a shot was fired, one person was killed.
As for the people lying in ambush nearby, no matter their hidden weapons or sharp weapons, the black armor was useless to them.
As for attacking the girl?
The girl was surrounded by six people and the ambushers could not see her at all.
There were obviously only six people, but they were like a mighty army, which frightened the ambushers.
Go ahead! Go ahead!
The six men in black armor were like evil spirits from hell, marching forward, leaving behind a field of dead bodies.
"Military formation?!"
Zot exclaimed.
When I saw the girl directly took out seven invitations and placed them in front of the registration staff with a smile, one word came out of my mouth -
“Qin family!”
"Huh?"
"Does anyone in Green Ivy City know about our family?"
The girl glanced at Zote in surprise, but then stared straight at Goethe.
"You are Goethe?"
The girl bared her teeth and glared, trying her best to look fierce, but her eyes couldn't help but glance at the sausage in Goethe's hand, and she was drooling at the corners of her mouth.
Goethe said nothing.
The girl took two steps forward, stood in front of Goethe with her hands on her hips, and spoke in a louder voice while twitching her nose.
"Let me tell you, Sisters Xie Wan and Xie Ling will not marry you. They asked me to tell you..."
"Want some sausage?"
"Okay! Okay!"
The girl took the sausage handed to her by Goethe and stuffed it into her mouth.
"So hot and so big."
The girl was almost in tears, and Goethe immediately handed her a glass of iced drink.
"Thank you... Uh, let me tell you, even if you try to please me, it's useless. Sister Xie Wan and Sister Xie Ling are..."
"Would you like to try the pepper-flavored sausage?"
Goethe handed over another sausage.
"Okay! Okay!"
The girl took it and, completely forgetting that she was scalded, was about to put it in her mouth.
The leader of the six soldiers at the side hesitated for a moment and persuaded softly.
"Miss, Madam said you can only have one apple for dinner."
"A boiled egg in the morning, chicken breast and broccoli at noon, and only an apple at night - and I'm not fat now!"
The girl glared at her retainer.
The soldier stood there hesitantly, not knowing what to do.
Zote quietly walked up to Goethe and explained with a humming sound without moving his lips.
"The Qin family moved to Silver Ring Island overseas eighty years ago. The current head of the family, Qin Wulie, killed seven pirate kings with the Fiery Sun Palm and the Fire Separation Technique, and was known as the best overseas expert. His son even married the most beautiful woman overseas at the time, and then... this most beautiful woman gained weight to over 200 pounds after marriage, and the two sons she gave birth to were also fat. Therefore, the family strictly controls their daughters and forbids them from eating any fattening food."
Hearing this explanation, Goethe's face curled up into a smile.
"I have some freshly popped popcorn, would you like some?"
Goethe said to the girl.
“Not good.”
The girl said this while leaning over quite honestly, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the popcorn in Goethe's hand.
Goethe handed it over with a smile. When the girl took two bites and squinted her eyes happily, he asked softly:
"Can I see your gloves?"
