Chapter 526: The Treacherous Art of War
The next battle became interesting. After Yuwen Zhen went up, it was a direct blow to Lu Xiaolou. Yuwen Zhen was proficient in Xuan Dao, although not the ancient Xuan Dao, but he actually fought against Lu Xiaolou's ancient Xuan Dao for dozens of rounds. Although Yuwen Zhen was also severely injured and defeated, everyone saw that Lu Xiaolou seemed to have a hard time lasting two more rounds.
Sure enough, after Yuwen Zhen came down, Gao Shenghan and Yue Wuya went up to the stage to fight with Lu Xiaolou. Although Gao Shenghan and Yue Wuya were far less powerful than Lu Xiaolou, Lu Xiaolou had consumed most of his strength in the previous battles. Therefore, Gao Shenghan actually tied with Lu Xiaolou at the last moment, and both were knocked off the stage. The Tianshui Wonderland team actually won because of this, and even Tuoba Yun and Bai Feifan did not go up.
This seems to be a result that no one expected. Now there are only four members of the Tianshui Wonderland team who are still capable of fighting, and among them, Shi Wuyin and Zhu Qianrou are still quite powerful. However, the team they will face next is the Lu Yuanba team. The outcome of this game is unpredictable, and it is also a very critical game, because once the Tianshui Wonderland team wins the Lu Yuanba team, then the Tianshui Wonderland team will keep the first place in the team.
Therefore, the battle has just begun, Tuoba Yun went on stage without saying a word, and his opponent is also a very powerful cultivator in the Lu Yuanba team. Lu Yuanba seems to want to learn from Lu Xiaolou's experience and lessons, and let the stronger cultivators go on stage right away.
At the beginning of the battle, Tuoba Yun was immediately beaten back. Obviously, Lu Yuanba's team did not intend to give the Tianshui Wonderland team any chance. They would not be as arrogant as Lu Xiaolou's team, nor would they dare to be so arrogant. Sure enough, Tuoba Yun lost, but he was still glorious in defeat, and he also directly made his opponent lose the ability to continue fighting.
However, this situation is obviously very unfavorable to the Tianshui Wonderland team. There are only three people left in the Tianshui Wonderland team who can fight, at least on the surface. Therefore, Bai Feifan came on stage immediately. Although Bai Feifan's strength is quite good in the Tianshui Wonderland team, his ranking among all teams is even far inferior to the members of Lu Yuanba's team. The opponent is also very desperate and does not give Bai Feifan any chance.
Therefore, Bai Feifan was defeated directly, and the opponent still had the strength to fight. At this time, the gap in strength between the two sides widened, and everyone saw the weakness of the Tianshui Wonderland team.
"It seems that the Tianshui Wonderland team has to stop here."
"Yes, even if they are very united and fighting hard now, unfortunately, strength is strength, and there is no room for falsehood."
"But it is still an honor to lose. Their strength is not enough. It is not easy to hold on until now and defeat so many teams in a row. It is also quite admirable."
"That's right, but we still have to see what Zhu Qianrou's strength is. Maybe she has hidden her strength."
"Yes, she should have hidden her strength. Maybe this is the last trump card of the Tianshui Wonderland team. Let's wait and see."
...
Everyone is looking forward to the final result of the battle. After Bai Feifan was defeated, Shi Wuyin came on stage. A cultivator from Lu Yuanba's team also came up. He was also a cultivator who practiced the ancient Taoism, and he was a cultivator who practiced two ancient Taoisms. This was extremely surprising, and Shi Wuyin's face was also quite ugly.
But the battle still had to be fought. Shi Wuyin faced an opponent with two ancient Taoist methods for the first time, and she immediately showed her shortcomings. The Taoist power that she was once proud of seemed extremely weak in front of the opponent. Shi Wuyin was in a passive disadvantage from the beginning.
Seeing this situation, everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before Shi Wuyin was defeated, but Shi Wuyin was also fighting with all her strength. She naturally couldn't let Shi Yanfeng and others underestimate her, so at the end of this battle, although Shi Wuyin was defeated, she still forced the opponent to lose the power of Taoism.
So far, the Tianshui Wonderland team has lost two of the three games and tied one. The Lu Yuanba team has a great advantage, but the Lu Yuanba team is obviously still very cautious, because they actually let Lu Yuanba go down in person. They also know that the next opponent is Zhu Qianrou, and they don't want the Tianshui Wonderland team to win even one victory.
Lv Yuanba vs. Zhu Qianrou, this battle has aroused great expectations among many people, and Lv Yuanba intends to defeat Zhu Qianrou in one go, and then make the Tianshui Wonderland team completely lose the strength to continue fighting.
So, under the attention of everyone, Zhu Qianrou came on the field, and the two sides immediately entered the battle, and Zhu Qianrou's strength was forced out in an instant. She only had the power of ancient Taoism, and was no match for Lv Yuanba at all. Although Zhu Qianrou tried her best, Lv Yuanba was much stronger, so Zhu Qianrou could only try her best to drag and consume Lv Yuanba's Taoism power, but the sign of defeat was already very obvious.
"It seems that Zhu Qianrou is just like that."
"Yes, she is just relying on the advice of the Yuanying master behind her. In fact, she seems to have only one ancient Taoism."
"Yes, at this time, she must have tried her best. She has no extra Taoism power."
"But it is good to be able to achieve this level now. Lu Yuanba and his team really got a bargain."
"That may not be the case. Even if Lu Yuanba's team wins first place, so what? Zhou Yiyan and his team will be waiting to replace Lu Yuanba's team at that time."
"Hey, that's true. The situation is not clear now. Let's see first."
...
Almost everyone can see that the Tianshui Wonderland team has run out of energy. Even the members of the Tianshui Wonderland team have already seen that they have been defeated and they will completely lose their ranking. If they had known this, it is really better not to take it. At this first place, there may be a chance to break into the top three, but now even if Zhu Qianrou consumes most of Lu Yuanba's Taoist power, there seems to be no one in the Water Fairyland team who can continue to fight that day. Everyone seemed to be severely injured.
Sure enough, Zhu Qianrou tried her best but was defeated in the end. Lu Yuanba certainly felt uncomfortable. His Taoist power was greatly weakened and it was almost difficult to continue fighting. This seems to be what the Tianshui Wonderland team can do. The best level.
Therefore, it seems that no one can go on stage to fight?
Everyone looked at the Tianshui Wonderland team. Now they had three losses and a draw in four games, with no victory. Shi Yanfeng and others were seriously injured and could not continue fighting. It seemed that the battle was over.
But Lu Yuanba's team still sent a monk to the stage, because at least the Tianshui Fairyland team hadn't lost tomorrow, so they still had to send someone to the stage.
And just when everyone thought that no one from the Tianshui Wonderland team was playing, Zhang Zhiwen stood up and slowly walked onto the ring. Everyone was extremely surprised to see him on the stage, because wasn't Zhang Zhiwen already seriously injured? Could it be that he wanted to die?
The rest of the Tianshui Wonderland team were also quite shocked, including Shi Wuyin who was hesitant to speak, but Zhang Zhiwen had already taken the stage, and it seemed that no one else could take the stage now, so naturally it was hard to say anything.
When the monk from Lu Yuanba's team saw Zhang Zhiwen dragging his seriously injured body onto the stage again, he admired him a lot. He didn't say anything, he just hugged Zhang Zhiwen and Zhang Zhiwen didn't say anything. The two sides were silent for a while, and the other party finally Take action.
This monk has the strongest Taoist power as soon as he takes action. Perhaps this is the greatest respect for Zhang Zhiwen. Although he knows that Zhang Zhiwen should be the weakest monk, he still has no hold back, and Zhang Zhiwen faces the opponent's all-out effort. , he dodged directly and did not confront the opponent head-on.
"Want to delay?"
The monk immediately saw Zhang Zhiwen's intention, but he obviously disapproved of it. In his eyes, Zhang Zhiwen was just struggling to his death.
But he seemed to have thought wrongly. Zhang Zhiwen was able to dodge his Taoist attacks with narrow and narrow margins. Every time the monk planned to blow Zhang Zhiwen away with one blow, Zhang Zhiwen dodged it in a thrilling way. It seemed overwhelming. Zhang Zhiwen's Taoist attacks were dodged time and time again, which really surprised many people.
"What kind of method is he doing?"
"I have never seen this kind of Taoism before, and it doesn't look like an ancient Taoism. Could it be some weird Taoism?"
"Everything in the world is full of surprises. It doesn't seem strange that he has this kind of Taoism. But even so, he can't win."
"Yes, he will lose sooner or later. After all, the power of Taoism is also limited. If the opponent consumes the power of Taoism, he will also consume the power of Taoism."
…
Seeing this scene, the monks from other teams couldn't help but speculate, but they obviously didn't think highly of Zhang Zhiwen. Even the other members of the Tianshui Wonderland team, when they saw that Zhang Zhiwen was avoiding fighting and just dodging in embarrassment, they were silent. Obviously , they felt that Zhang Zhiwen would be defeated sooner or later.
Zhu Qianrou was a little confused, because she knew Zhang Zhiwen's strength very well, and now that the Tianshui Wonderland team was at the end of its rope, why didn't Zhang Zhiwen show his true strength? Why are you still so secretive?
But soon, everyone realized that something was wrong, because as the battle went on, the situation in the ring changed. The monk who was chasing Zhang Zhiwen had shown signs of exhaustion, but Zhang Zhiwen was still dodging around vigorously, without even a trace. There was no sign of any fatigue. Not only was the serious injury gradually healed, but he was becoming more and more energetic.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but frown, because no one could see what Taoist method Zhang Zhiwen was performing, it seemed more like a physical method.
"Is this a martial art?"
"It doesn't look like it. It seems more like the Taoist method of Alchemy. Otherwise, how could it be possible to continuously recover during the battle?"
"This method is so weird, it seems to be getting more powerful the more you hit it?"
"Is this the art of war? Fight to support war?"
"The art of war? This is a Tao that is rarely seen before. Even if it is not an ancient Tao, it is still very rare. The art of war is famous for its treachery!"
"Yes, this should be the way of war. It is extremely strange. Fight to support war. The more you fight, the better your recovery will be, and you will eventually become a soldier who can defeat others without fighting!"
…
A group of people made wild guesses and actually said that Zhang Zhiwen had some kind of military art. Zhang Zhiwen had never heard of this kind of art. He simply did not want to expose his strength and delay the other party. This was also his strategy, but how could he have thought that these people were better than him? He imagined that he would be "well-informed", which somewhat surprised Zhang Zhiwen. Of course, if they thought so, Zhang Zhiwen would also like to hear it.
Zhang Zhiwen's opponent naturally heard these words. He was just an ordinary monk and had no ancient Taoism. So Zhang Zhiwen used such weird military Taoism to deal with him, and he naturally had no way to attack him.
Lu Yuanba's team also felt that something was not good at this moment, but they had never fought against monks who had the art of war. Let alone them, almost no one in other teams had encountered such a way. If you know what this method is like, how can you fight it?
The Tianshui Wonderland team did not expect Zhang Zhiwen to have such a strange Taoist method. Although this method did not look very sharp, it was very strange. Zhu Qianrou was also a little strange. She also frowned slightly. She did not understand Zhang Zhiwen. Why should this be so.
But Zhang Zhiwen had his own plans, so he continued to delay and consume the opponent. As expected, the opponent could not withstand his consumption. Gradually, the power of Taoism began to weaken, and Zhang Zhiwen continued to dodge, not following the opponent at all. Head-to-head confrontation, occasionally getting hit For a moment, it was not too serious, but in this way, the opponent actually forced Zhang Zhiwen to consume the power of Taoism, and in the end, Zhang Zhiwen became more and more energetic, so that the opponent saw Zhang Zhiwen finally killing him. At some point, he had to admit defeat.
Everyone was stunned. No one expected that the final result would be such a reversal. Lu Yuanba's team was also a little at a loss. Even after the monk who fought with Zhang Zhiwen went down, they didn't ask any questions. What? Now, it was Lu Yuanba's team's turn to be a little anxious.
At this moment, not only Lu Yuanba's team was a little anxious, but also Zhou Yan and others showed fear when they saw this scene. It was obvious that this so-called way of war was extremely weird and they were not familiar with it at all. How dare they touch something they are completely unfamiliar with.
Seeing them like this, Zhang Zhiwen was very calm. This was what he wanted, because if he showed great strength and defeated his opponents directly, then Zhou Yan and others would definitely keep an eye on him, and then he would suffer. , everyone is likely to swarm up to deal with him. Just imagine, the top ten teams, nearly a hundred monks with almost ancient Taoism, come to deal with him one by one. Zhang Zhiwen does not dare to say that he will win, and it is definitely quite A thankless job.
But it's different now. He doesn't show much strength, but he is very cunning and can delay. It's a bit thankless to deal with Zhang Zhiwen, because winning against Zhang Zhiwen won't bring much benefit. On the contrary, he will be dragged down. , then these people will definitely not consider causing trouble to Zhang Zhiwen in the first place.
Sure enough, many people had this view. Even Zhou Yan and others seemed to dislike Zhang Zhiwen, and the subsequent battle made them feel this even more. The subsequent battle was between the other members of Lu Yuanba's team. The monks followed one after another, causing Zhang Zhiwen to consume them forcefully.
"What a shameless attack!"
"Yeah, what are we fighting here? We're all ordinary monks. We can't beat him. If this isn't an arena battle or a challenge, he has no advantage. But this is an arena battle, and he has a unique advantage. "
"Who says otherwise? A monk without ancient Taoism cannot defeat him, but in fact it doesn't count as losing to him. In the final analysis, it is just a delay."
"Didn't the monk want to delay with him just now? Everyone is delaying anyway, so let's delay together. But look, he doesn't give the other party a chance to delay at all. As soon as the other party delays, he will harass him. When the enemy advances, we retreat. , the enemy is retreating while we are advancing, he uses this very skillfully.”
"How about we say this is a strange way of fighting?"
"But the problem is that people like him may not be able to tolerate it when they meet monks who possess ancient Taoism, right?"
"Hey, that's not necessarily the case. If there are only one kind of monk with two kinds of ancient Taoism, he may not be able to take advantage of it. Even a monk like Lu Yuanba, I'm afraid he doesn't want to get entangled with such a guy, right? If you continue to get entangled, Even if you beat him, how can you fight later? "
"Yes, there is no benefit in defeating him. Avoid him if you can."
…
A group of people began to step into the trap that Zhang Zhiwen expected, and Zhang Zhiwen really used this method to bring down Lu Yuanba's team. At this moment, everyone looked at Zhang Zhiwen with a strange look, with a hint of disgust. There was a trace of repulsion. It was obvious that they did not want to provoke this rogue style of play.
Sure enough, the Water Fairyland team maintained the first place in the rankings that day, and after the old man announced the start of the personal challenge, the first monk from the top ten teams to jump out to challenge was Hou Guanling, not Zhang Zhiwen, who everyone thought was the weakest.
