Previously, he said that the conflict between Yan Kuo and himself was extremely intense, and that a fierce battle was unavoidable.

Yan Kuo then used the move "Soaring Slash" and a powerful blade Qi struck out. Zhao Pingtong did not want to be outdone, so he quickly turned the handle of the blade and struck horizontally, blocking the blade Qi and raising a lot of dust in the blink of an eye. Yan Kuo quickly jumped up and used the move "Half-Moon Chop" to hack down on him. Zhao Pingtong quickly raised his blade and clashed with it, causing sparks to fly out. Yan Kuo landed on the ground, turned around and with a leap, he unleashed a move "Flying Dragon in the Sky" from his blade. Zhao Pingtong knew that it was powerful, but he did not retreat at all. When two moves clashed, Yan Kuo and his mother couldn't help but take a few steps back. Zhao Pingtong stabbed the blade vertically into the ground and slashed out. Yan Kuo gripped the blade hilt, going from the right to the bottom to block with the left, Zhao Pingtong roared, he moved forward, and used his blade to meet his opponent's blade.

The two blades intersected, beginning with a stronger strength than the other. Originally, Zhao Pingtong thought that he was confident that he was stronger than others and could definitely win against his opponent. He did not expect that in terms of strength, he could not take advantage of Yan Kuo at all, and he could not help but shiver in his heart, thinking: This guy is truly strong! Although Yan Kuo did not like Zhao Pingtong's look at him, but he admired his proficient martial arts. Zhao Pingtong knew that this stalemate was not an option, he suddenly retracted his hand and the resistance disappeared. Yan Kuo's balance was unstable, his body staggered, he fell forward and his blade struck the ground. Zhao Pingtong took the chance and turned the blade in his hand, then he slashed towards Yan Kuo's neck from the left. Yan Kuo was shocked, he immediately raised her blade to block, but who knew that Zhao Pingtong would change his move in an instant, retracting her blade and striking towards the right. Yan Kuo used one of his arms to support his entire body as he flew into the air, Zhao Pingtong missed his target and dodged a blade strike. Yan Kuo turned his body, his two hands holding onto his blade tightly. Zhao Pingtong used his blade to parry the attack, and then the ground beneath his feet started to crack. Yan Kuo immediately kicked away his opponent's long blade, immediately dragging the blade behind on the right, suddenly spinning towards the back, using "Autumn Wind Sweep", Zhao Pingtong directly used "Crossing Smoke River" to suppress it.

The two of them started to fight blade techniques at close range. Yan Kuo's blade force was getting stronger and stronger, and Zhao Pingtong's long blade became faster and faster. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn had passed, the two of them were unable to gain the slightest advantage over the other. Every time the two blades met, everyone on the scene would break out in a cold sweat. When the Emperor saw this, he was overjoyed and began clapping and cheering. This sort of "battle of attrition" lasted for a long time. Both of them were covered in sweat and gradually revealed signs of fatigue. However, neither of them showed any signs of wanting to show weakness.

Xu Yuan scratched his head, patted Jiang Feng and said: "Chiang Feng, look, that Cold Face is still saying that I have a strong desire to win. And that whatever head of Three Heroes of Liaodong, he's also like that. " Jiang Feng nodded his head lightly, thinking back to the scene when he was fighting with Yan Kuo, and looking at the scene in front of him, he was extremely shocked. Facing the battle just now, Kuang Mofann originally did not have the heart to spectate, but now that he saw the two of them fighting so intensely, he could not help but say: "Three Heroes of Liaodong, as expected, your reputation is well-deserved, Brother Yue, what do you think?" Yue Xingchen replied, "He's indeed powerful, he's not simple at all!" In his heart, he thought to himself: With these three people in Kun Sect, you should be more careful in the future.

Liu Shichen stood by the emperor's side now and snickered in his heart: "He is very powerful indeed. It looks like it was worth it for me to go and spend a lot of money to hire someone to be my Palace's guard and help me out with my work that day!" Young Master Liu shook his sleeves and thought: Chiang Feng, if you can help my father, your chances of staying with Bing Bing will be very high. You must cherish this chance!

Watching the two people in the center of the arena retreat several steps, they both unleashed their best efforts to release dozens of blade auras. The drill ground was shaken by their blade auras until dust flew everywhere, and they fought until the sky went dark. Seeing this, the Emperor allowed Lu Jianfei to whisper in his ear. After instructing him for a bit, Lu Jianfei got the order and immediately flew down, loudly shouting: "The Emperor has an order, both of you are to stop immediately!" Yan Kuo and Zhao Pingtong did not want to stop at that point, but since it was an order from the Emperor, they had no choice but to obey. Seeing that the two of them had stopped, Lu Jianfei explained, "Today is only a friendly match. The Emperor does not wish to see either of you injured, so he decided that your match will end in a draw." The two of them were not satisfied with this result. Yan Kuo gave a cold snort, and Zhao Pingtong asked: "Why? I am clearly stronger than him, is this some sort of bias? " Lu Jianfei glared and said: "This is an imperial edict, you dare to disobey?" Liu Shichen hurriedly looked at Zhao Pingtong with his eyes. Zhao Pingtong understood, and had no choice but to retract his blade, and said: "This one dares not, I will follow Your Majesty's orders!" He walked past Yan Kuo and said softly: "You with the surname Yan, if there's a chance in the future, I will definitely let you lose to my blade." Yan Kuo laughed coldly, and said with disdain: "I'm afraid you don't have that kind of ability." Zhao Pingtong clenched his fists tightly and suddenly swung towards Yan Kuo's right cheek. Yan Kuo anxiously retreated a few steps and almost got hit. Lu Jianfei saw what happened, he pulled out his straight sword from his waist and used an extremely fast movement technique to move between the two of them, using his great sword to separate the two and said: "If anyone dares to make a move again, don't blame me for being ruthless." Yan Kuo cupped his fists in respect and retreated to Jiang Feng's side. Zhao Pingtong also forcefully suppressed his anger and retreated.

Jiang Feng calmed himself down and asked: "Why didn't you use your full strength when fighting me?" Yan Kuo squinted at Jiang Feng, and asked: "How do you know I did not go all out at that time?" Jiang Feng's face showed displeasure, and said: "Then why are your strength today so much stronger than before?" Yan Kuo said coldly: "Weapons have their differences when it comes to offense and defense. You use a spear and a long blade. No matter that day or today, I did my best. " Jiang Feng sighed and no longer pursued the matter.

At this moment, the Emperor stood up and happily said, "Good, all six of you are worthy of being the experts of the martial arts world. I was quite satisfied with the previous three matches, so I shall abide by my promise and bestow upon you all a reward!" Yue Xingchen suddenly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this one would rather not have any rewards. The Emperor curiously asked, "Oh?" "Whatever it is, feel free to speak up. Your performance today is extraordinary. No matter what request it is, I will agree to it." Yue Xingchen quickly expressed his gratitude and said, "This matter requires my junior sister to come out." The Emperor smiled. "Oh? So mysterious? Come on, someone, invite the junior sister from Brother Yue. " A guard immediately answered and ran to the rear of the camp.

After a while, the guard brought Gui Xuerou here. Today, she did not comb her hair into a bun, but had applied some light makeup on her face. Her elegant long hair fell to her shoulders, and she wore pink white clothes. When she appeared, she immediately shocked the entire audience. That guard stepped forward and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Lady Gui has brought them." Yue Xingchen said: "Your majesty, my junior sister has always loved to spar with experts, I humbly request Your Majesty's permission." The Emperor looked at Gui Xuerou and could not help but laugh: "Haha, so that's how it is. Beat it, Lady Gui, everyone present, as long as you know martial arts, you can pick anyone to be your opponent." Gui Xuerou cutely said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" She turned her head and smiled at, who nodded to greet her.

Gui Xuerou walked around the arena in a small circle, her bewitching eyes swept across everyone present, and finally fell upon a single person …

Who exactly did Gui Xuerou choose?

And then we'll see how it breaks down in the next round.
