Chapter 778: Become Famous (Part 1)
Two days later, the Chibi City Martial Arts Competition was officially held in the large martial arts arena in the center of the city.
The annual martial arts competition is undoubtedly a rare event in this city. Thousands of city residents poured into the martial arts arena that day, surrounding the three martial arts arenas.
The war drums are beating, the war flags are fierce, and Chibi City has never been so lively!
According to the rules of the martial arts competition, each martial arts gym can send three martial arts masters to compete on stage, and the ranking will be based on the winning lottery.
If you rank at the bottom for three consecutive years, you will lose the qualification to open a museum and teach arts.
The record of Hongyi Martial Arts School in the past two years was very bad. If there is no improvement this year, being eliminated is an inevitable result!
However, Shao Hongcheng, who was sitting on the representative bench, was calm and composed, without any signs of uneasiness.
A gym owner next to him asked with a smile: "Mr. Shao, I heard that your Hongyi Martial Arts Hall recently had a young genius come to the gym. I guess he is sure to win this time, right?"
His voice was quite loud, and all the martial arts masters around him could hear it clearly, and they all looked at him with concern.
Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. If you open a martial arts gym in Chibi City, there are also different levels.
For the same representative seats, those in the front row are the most powerful group, the second row is one level behind, and so on to the back row.
Because of his poor record in the past, Shao Hongcheng sat at the back. He was surrounded by peers of similar grades, and the competition was the fiercest.
A winning lot, that is, a victory, may determine your fate!
As for the genius in Hongyi Martial Arts School, many people have known about it for a long time. However, Shao Hongcheng has always kept a low profile and never publicized it outside. In addition, Wang Chen is training in Beishan, so their understanding is extremely limited.
Some are wary, some are doubtful, some are disdainful, some are hostile...
Shao Hongcheng, who became the center of attention, smiled faintly: "According to your auspicious words, our Hongyi Martial Arts School will definitely get enough winning tickets this time, and we will continue to compete with you in the future."
Everyone's expressions changed.
Shao Hongcheng was too calm and confident. His tone was more than sure of victory. He simply didn't take his opponent seriously!
So here comes the question, is the master of Hongyi Martial Arts School really confident, or is he just bragging?
"hehe!"
At this moment, a sinister laughter sounded: "Master Shao, you can't speak so eloquently. It would be very embarrassing if someone knocks you off the ring."
“It’s time for Master Wu to worry!”
Shao Hongcheng responded without hesitation: "Shao never speaks big words. Wu Guan mainly doesn't believe it. Do you dare to take a gamble?"
This yin and yang guy is none other than Hongyi Martial Arts School’s mortal enemy—Wu Lei, the owner of Wushi Martial Arts School.
The grievances between the two parties can be traced back to decades ago and have long been irresolvable.
The Hongyi Martial Arts School and the Wushi Martial Arts School were not far apart. The strength of the two sides was originally about the same. However, in the past few years, the Hongyi Martial Arts School had encountered several troubles and showed signs of decline.
Wushi Martial Arts School took the opportunity to dominate.
Wu Lei and Shao Hongcheng are both warriors at the peak of marrow refining, but Wu Lei is backed by the Wu family and has a much stronger background than Shao Hongcheng.
Regarding Shao Hongcheng's counterattack, Wu Lei immediately sneered: "Bet or not, are Wu still afraid of you?"
"The question is, what do you want to bet on? It's no fun if the bet is too small!"
Shao Hongcheng met his eyes and said loudly: "Isn't this nonsense? If you want to play, then you must play big."
"If I lose, I will pay you the entire Hongyi Martial Arts School. If I win..."
"You pay me thirty thousand jade coins!"
"dare?"
The owners of the hall who were watching the excitement all took a breath.
This is too much fun!
Thirty thousand jade coins are equivalent to 300,000 bone coins. Although Hongyi Martial Arts School is not strong, the value of the house and land must exceed this amount. Shao Hongcheng has bet all his wealth!
Where did he get such confidence?
Wu Lei's face looked uncertain.
The owner of the Wushi Martial Arts School instinctively felt that something was wrong. Shao Hongcheng was too confident.
But in front of so many people, and it was he who took the initiative to provoke him. If he shrinks back at this time, how can he have the dignity to hang out in Chibi City in the future?
If Shao Hongcheng bets Hongyi Martial Arts School on his Wushi Martial Arts School, then he will definitely not do it.
But the thirty thousand jade coins just got stuck on Wu Lei's psychological line.
"You don't dare, do you?"
Seeing Wu Lei's hesitation, Shao Hongcheng sneered: "If you don't dare, just be a coward. Don't jump out and embarrass yourself!"
Hiss~
There were gasps of cold air all around again.
Shao Hongcheng's words were too vicious and cruel, and he slapped Wu Lei in the face.
There is no fear of offending the Wu family behind Wu Lei.
If Wu Lei can endure this, he will truly be known as the "little turtle"!
"Just bet!"
As expected, Wu Lei was completely irritated, and immediately yelled: "You can't prove it with your words, but make a contract to prove it!"
Shao Hongcheng laughed loudly: "Just what I wanted!"
Both parties immediately found witnesses and then made a bet in front of everyone.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. Some martial arts schools that are usually at odds with each other during martial arts competitions are not prohibited by the rules.
It's just that people like Shao Hongcheng and Wu Lei play so big, it's really eye-opening!
When the matter got serious, word spread immediately, and soon all the martial arts representatives participating in the competition knew about it.
Some of them just dismissed it as a farce, while others took a strong interest in discussing the source of Shao Hongcheng's confidence.
Then more came to light.
Only then did everyone know that Hongyi Martial Arts School only sent one martial artist to participate in this martial arts competition!
Wang Chen.
It is said that this martial artist is only sixteen years old and is Shao Hongcheng's junior brother. He only came to Red Cliff City three months ago.
It is rumored that Wang Chen's cultivation has reached the level of marrow refining!
At this time, everyone knew what Shao Hongcheng's confidence was, but it was crazy that he bet all his wealth and hopes on a sixteen-year-old boy.
Most people believe that the winner of this bet must be Wu Lei.
The bet between Hongyi Martial Arts School and Wushi Martial Arts School did not affect the normal holding of the martial arts competitions at all.
At the same time, the powerful horn sound suddenly sounded, spreading to every corner of Chibi City.
The originally noisy martial arts arena fell silent for an instant. Everyone held their breath and stared at a middle-aged man who had just stepped onto the martial arts arena in the middle.
Zhao Zhenxuan, the lord of Chibi City, is an innate powerhouse!
This elegant and elegant Xiantian has been in charge of Chibi for decades, and his prestige is unrivaled. All the warriors present were in awe and lowered their heads.
"A martial arts competition, until the point is reached..."
Zhao Zhenxuan's voice echoed in the martial arts arena, spreading in all directions, shaking everyone's heartstrings.
