Chapter Thirty-One Let's Go Together

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan from the Ninth Mountain Villa were on their way to the precious Yuanqi Tree when they saw a twelve-year-old boy in blue clothes carrying a red copper long knife on his shoulder, blocking their path.

  That young man in blue clothes was very young, but with a knife on his shoulder, he had a heroic spirit.

  "What you just said, in this world the strong are respected, and good things should naturally go to the strong. I somewhat agree with this statement." The blue-clothed youth said indifferently: "You two are stronger than those three girls, so you can get the Yuanqi Wood. But since I am stronger than you two, it seems that the Yuanqi Wood will fall into my hands."

  Actually, Gu Chao really agrees with the point that the strong are respected. It is precisely because of this agreement that Gu Chao wants to stand at the end of the sky and the top of heaven.

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan were both stunned for a moment.

  Li Tong saw clearly the blue-clad youth's age and attire, and couldn't help but burst out laughing: "I was wondering who had such a bold tone, turns out it's just a rookie from New Snow Mountain Villa."

  Zhao Fan also sneered: "The rookie of Xin Xue Mountain Villa dares to be so arrogant in front of us, it's really ridiculous."

  Zhongxi Peak has a total of ten large villas, divided according to the age of entry.

  Generally speaking, the longer you've been playing, the stronger you get, at least on average.

  Xin Xue Mountain Villa is only half a year into the industry, completely at the novice level. In contrast, Can Xue Mountain Villa has been in the industry for two and a half years, naturally much stronger than Xin Xue Mountain Villa. So from the bottom of their hearts, people from the 9th mountain villa, Can Xue Mountain Villa, look down on people from the 10th mountain villa, Xin Xue Mountain Villa, basically treating them as novices.

  Li Tong sneered coldly: "Rookie, I'll see how many moves you can last under my hands, at most twenty moves."

  Zhao Fan said with a smile: "Little bird, I think you can hold on for at most fifteen moves under my hands." This was to compete with Li Tong to see who could defeat Gu Chao faster.

  Li Tong said, "If you can do it in fifteen moves, I'll do it in twelve, no, thirteen moves." He wanted to compete with Zhao Fan to see who could use fewer moves. Neither Li Tong nor Zhao Fan took Gu Chao seriously, they could clearly see that Gu Chao's internal energy was not high, and he was a rookie from the New Snow Mountain Villa. If someone like him couldn't be knocked down in over ten moves, it would be strange.

  It's precisely because they look down on Gu Chao that they dare to compare who can knock Gu Chao down with fewer moves.

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan both want to prove they are stronger.

  Gu Chao slung the crimson copper long knife over his shoulder: "Actually, you all don't need to fight, just go up together."

  Shall we go together?

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan were both stunned, what did this new Snow Mountain Villa's rookie say, the two of them were competing to see who could defeat Gu Chao with fewer moves, either one of them was confident they could defeat him in over ten moves, but now this new Snow Mountain Villa's rookie actually told the two of them to go up together.

  Li Tong rubbed his eyes and Zhao Fan pinched his ears, both of them suspected they had misheard.

  Liu Ya, Zhu Dan, and Ye Qian on the side also thought they had misheard. These three girls had recognized Gu Chao after the challenge stage, Gu Chao was originally one of the top 59 in Xin Xue Mountain Villa, now he should be one of the top 30 or so in Xin Xue Mountain Villa, with such strength, it is impossible to defeat the two from Can Xue Mountain Villa.

  When Gu Chao first came out, they didn't have any hope for him. Now he's actually going to take these two with him? Has he gone crazy?

  Gu Chao said indifferently: "I said let's work together, no need to fight anymore."

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan finally figured out what Gu Chao said.

  Fine, since this newcomer of Xue Shan Zhuang wants to humiliate himself, then let him humiliate himself.

  。。。。。。

  Li Tong's knife technique is quite fast, this is a second-rate martial skill, Rapid Wind Knife Technique.

  The martial arts of the Great Qi Empire are divided into six grades.

  The first move is the 72 Road Knife Method, a common martial skill that doesn't have much power. However, the Tai Shan School's first move, the 72 Road Knife Method, although not powerful, is a foundational knife method that differs from ordinary first-move skills.

  The second-grade martial skill, the moves are more complex and powerful. This is only natural, once you practice to a high level, it will also produce attributes, for example, if you practice wind-based swordsmanship, when you reach a high level, it will bring out the attribute of wind, making your swordsmanship faster. If it's thunder-based martial skill, then it brings out the attribute of thunder, making your martial skill's attacking power stronger. This kind of attribute has a huge effect. The second-grade martial skills are also known as single-attribute martial skills.

  The third-grade martial skill, the moves are more complex and powerful, and once practiced to perfection, it can bring multiple attributes, such as practicing this set of martial skills to perfection, with wind and thunder attributes attached to the attack. The third-grade martial skill is also known as multi-attribute martial skill.

  The fourth-grade martial skill, once practiced to perfection, will absorb the same attribute from heaven and earth. Taking wind-attribute martial skills as an example, when the fourth-grade martial skill is practiced to perfection, not only does one's sword carry wind, but it also absorbs the wind between heaven and earth, transforming into even greater power and faster sword releases, far surpassing those of the second grade. The fourth-grade martial skill is known as Single-Attribute Heaven-and-Earth Communication Skill.

  The fifth-grade martial skill is to absorb multiple attributes from the heavens and earth, increasing its power. For example, it can simultaneously absorb wind, thunder, fire, etc., around it, enhancing various abilities. The fifth-grade martial skill is called Multi-Attribute Communication with Heaven and Earth Martial Skill.

  The sixth-grade martial skill, once practiced to perfection, can transform into the attribute itself. For example, a sixth-grade wind-attribute martial skill can transform into a gust of wind that is omnipresent, or into lightning that is fierce and unmatched, or into earth that has boundless power. The sixth-grade martial skill is even more formidable, this level is called single attribute fusion with heaven and earth's martial skill.

  Sixth-Rank Martial Technique, is the highest rank of martial technique in the Great Qi Empire.

  The people of Zanxue Mountain Villa have been in the sect for more than two years, and their foundation has also been laid. It is impossible to always practice only one style of martial arts, the 72 Roads of Knife Technique, they have all learned some other higher-level martial arts.

  For example, Li Tong had learned a set of second-rate martial skills called the Gale Knife Technique. He hadn't mastered it to the point where he could bring out its properties, but this second-rate knife technique was quite powerful, and his knife strikes were slightly faster.

  On the other hand, Zhao Fan used another set of second-rate martial arts skills, Nanshan Knife Method. Although his Nanshan Knife Method had not yet reached perfection, the power of the knife moves was already quite strong. The Difeng Knife Method made the knife moves faster, while the Nanshan Knife Method made the knife moves more powerful.

  Moreover, whether it was Li Tong or Zhao Fan, their attacking moves were something that Gu Chao had never seen before and had never learned.

  Coincidentally, Gu Chao's 72 Road Knife Method was something that both Li Tong and Zhao Fan had learned before, so in reality, Gu Chao's disadvantage had reached an extreme point.

  Li Tong relentlessly wielded his Gale Knife technique in a swift assault: "Greenhorn, didn't you say you'd take on two of us? How come you're now being suppressed by us?"

  Zhao Fan was also continuously wielding the Nan Shan knife technique, with each knife falling like the previous one: "Rookie, I hope you can last ten moves under our joint attack."

  Li Tong and Zhao Fan continued to attack, they wanted to give the blue-clothed rookie of Xin Xue Mountain Villa a profound lesson, let this rookie know what it means to be humble, having only just entered the door for half a year, yet dared to be arrogant.

  It's all over!

  It's all over!

  It's all over!

  It's all over!

  Ten moves have been used! Ten moves still can't take down Gu Chao.

  It's all over!

  Twenty-five moves have passed! If saying that ten moves couldn't take down Gu Chao was a mistake, then now twenty-five moves still can't take down Gu Chao, it doesn't seem like a mistake anymore.

  It's all over!

  Forty-five moves have passed! Li Tong and Zhao Fan both looked stern, forty-five moves couldn't take down a rookie, this is simply unthinkable.

  It's all over!

  Sixty-five moves have been used! Up to this point, Li Tong and Zhao Fan had both used all their skills, but still failed to take down Gu Chao. They didn't know what kind of move Gu Chao was using to defend himself, it seemed a bit like the 72 Roads of Knife Methods, but absolutely wasn't, there was no fixed pattern, yet he always managed to block their attacks at just the right moment.

  Gu Chao's swordsmanship gave both of them a feeling - unpredictable like ghosts and gods!
