There is no doubt that Huo Zhizhang's covetousness for mysterious prizes. Putting aside everything else, under the brainwashing of his "great vision", the subordinates of the New World Association have not only been united, but also worked extremely hard. Of course, they did not know that Shadali had a close meeting with Xiqu, trying to make Huo Zhizhang the champion smoothly. Even if they knew, everyone would not waste this precious opportunity for cultivation.

Of course, Pu Zixuan and his party are also determined to win the championship. With Huo Zhizhang as an opponent, they have further encouraged their determination to practice. Each of them has explored a way of cultivation that suits them according to their own situation.

One day, in a forest behind Zhongyue Temple, Su Sanniang sat down, closing her eyes and concentrating for a while. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and rustled from the surrounding woods, and countless leaves also fell.

Su Sanniang caught this movement, suddenly opened her eyes, pulled out the Pu Knife from her waist at an extremely fast speed, and stabbed the leaves falling in the air. She neither used the power of purification nor summoned the three corpses to help. She simply waved the Pu Knife in her hand like an ordinary martial arts practitioner.

However, she did not want to pierce these fallen leaves with brute force. Every time the tip of the knife touches a certain fallen leaf, she immediately changes the target and stabs another fallen leaf, like a dragonfly sifting the water to a higher place.

While pointing to each new target, the previous leaves will fall again after swaying to a certain high point. So, Su Sanniang once again clicked on the previous leaves, or picked them up when they fell to a lower position, always maintaining "control" of more than ten leaves like juggling.

The leaves fall in a way that is extremely light and soft. Facing such a "gentle" "opponent", Su Sanniang also constantly adjusts her steps and arm movements.

Every stretch and relax, it is concise and moderate. Before she knew it, her already graceful body also softened, repeatedly drawing beautiful curves.

Su Sanniang had never tried this method of cultivation in the past, but at this moment, she only felt that the meridians in her body were unobstructed and extremely comfortable.

Su Sanniang was too focused and didn't realize when there was a man in a brown robe standing behind her.

The man did not disturb Su Sanniang's practice, and he slackenedly stroked his long white beard with his right hand. After observing for a while, Su Sanniang finally stopped and then applauded: "Good skills, Miss Yang is so skillful!"

Su Sanniang was stunned and turned to look at the man. Seeing that although he was also a childish face and had a kind face, he was not Li Shengqing, the Taoist priest of Zhongyue Temple, he asked in confusion: "What are you?"

"Haha, Miss Yang, don't be polite. Although I am older than you, I am also a contestant in the Eternal Night Competition. Just call me Yang Zipeng." Seeing Su Sanniang showing a vigilant look, Yang Zipeng deliberately showed off the blue arrogance of the Purification Messenger. He quickly put it away again, stepped forward, and said with a kind look, "Miss Yang has been here for a few days. I haven't had time to say hello. Today I happened to come here for a walk in the back mountain. I happened to meet Miss Yang by chance, so I took a look. Speaking of which, our surname is Yang, and maybe we were a family five hundred years ago."

Previously, Su Sanniang had learned that among the eight contestants, four of them except for the three of them and Huo Zhizhang were three men and one woman. The other two men were named Zhou Zaicheng and Meng Ting, both from Henan. Zhou Zaicheng came from Neixiang County, Nanyang Prefecture, and Meng Ting came from Luyi County, Guide Prefecture, and had met them one after another. However, the two were young people, their words and demeanor were mediocre and had a strong sense of the city. They were not well-trained purifying messengers. Their purpose of participating in the competition was just to try their luck, so Su Sanniang didn't take it much.

Yang Zipeng looks similar to Li Shengqing's age and is already an elderly person. It is special to participate in the competition. Moreover, his words have shown an extremely mature etiquette, which has attracted Su Sanniang's curiosity.

What's more, this is the first time in Su Sanniang's life that she made friends with a family under her real name, and she suddenly developed a preliminary affection for the old man.

So, Su Sanniang returned the favor and said, "Senior Yang laughed. I was just idle and came to the back mountain to practice casually. I did not deliberately practice sword techniques. How could I say "good skills"?"

Yang Zipeng responded with a smile: "Yes, in my opinion, what Miss Yang practiced just now was indeed not normal sword techniques. However, you can think of practicing in this way, so let me guess... Well, Miss Yang must have understood the core idea of ​​Tai Chi, but she was also troubled by not having the master give her systematic guidance, so she had to figure it out by herself."

This was exactly what Su Sanniang said. She really hoped to understand the key points of "removing the three corpses" through the spirit of Tai Chi. She was shocked and said: "Senior Yang has a sharp vision. You have guessed this little thought. Yes, for the sake of fairness, Master Li is not inconvenient to teach me Taoist skills personally, but through my visits for many days, I have also figured out the key points of Tai Chi, that is, to overcome hardness and calmness. Senior Yang knows Tai Chi so much, if he doesn't mind, can he comment on my performance just now?"

"Haha, of course I don't mind. Not only do I not mind, but for me, the better the other seven you participated in the competition, the better. So, I am willing to give you a suggestion, that is..." Yang Zipeng deliberately kept it a secret for a while, then squeezed his eyes and said, "Don't listen to anyone, insist on being the true self."

Su Sanniang was completely stunned. Her first reaction was that Yang Zipeng, as a competitor, was certainly unwilling to help anyone, so he used this to make excuses. But then he thought of the words "The stronger the other seven people, the better", and suddenly realized that things were not that simple, so he puzzled: "How do you say this?"

"Haha, Miss Yang, don't get me wrong. It's not that I'm unwilling to give advice. In fact, I have communicated with Master Li about your situation before. Miss Yang is over 30 years old. Putting aside the identity of the purifier, she is also a hero who has been practicing martial arts for many years. Every meridian, every acupoint, and even every breath in your body has long been determined according to your past practice. Although our Taoist Tai Chi has a complete theoretical system and cultivation method, it is necessary for practitioners to start practicing from a blank piece of paper to apply. Miss Yang's own things have penetrated into the bone marrow. At this time, only the world can be used to

Be your master." After saying that, Yang Zipeng leaned over and picked up a fallen leaf picked by Su Sanniang, smiled meaningfully, and concluded, "Once the martial arts of the world are written in a book and spoken in the mouth, they will lose their true nature due to the limitations of the words. What Miss Yang needs to do is to incorporate some tactical Tai Chi spirit into the original sword technique and purification power. You must know that this is the first time I have seen a person in the world who practice Tai Chi with a knife and a tree to pick leaves. Maybe, when Miss Yang collects the achievements of the two, she will write a book called "Yang's Tai Chi Sword Technique", she will become a master, haha."

The old man said very complimentary, but Su Sanniang did not feel his frivolous and teasing at all. Instead, she felt that every sentence was reasonable. At the same time, she suddenly recalled that when she was in Zhejiang, Ning Wanqiu's swordsmanship was also mastered by heaven and earth. She learned without a teacher and easily defeated Wen Li. She immediately realized Yang Zipeng's kindness and said sincerely gratefully: "Although Senior Yang did not give professional guidance, just this one sentence makes me better than reading for ten years!" Then, she said curiously, "By the way, why do you say that you hope that the better your competitors are? Do you don't care about the champion at all?"

"Haha, I don't care at all, but what I care about is whether the prize can fall into the hands of reliable people, because like Master Li, I am also one of the initiators of the Eternal Night Competition."

"Ah? No wonder you said 'We Taoist' just now. It turns out that Senior Yang is also a disciple of Zhongyue Temple. Then... Then aren't you both an athlete and a referee?"

Surprised, Su Sanniang couldn't help but show a worried look, wondering what the Taoist Master Li was selling. If the champion had already been decided, wouldn't other players, including herself, all become "studying with the prince"?

Yang Zipeng saw Su Sanniang's concern and explained: "Miss Yang, don't think too much. This matter is a long story. I was indeed a brother of Master Li at the beginning, but later I woke up the power of purification and left Zhongyue Temple. Four years ago, Master Li was going to hold the Eternal Night Competition and needed to set up the venue, so he asked me to come back to help him. But he didn't expect that he insisted that he had to gather eight people according to the last wish of his ancestors, so he forced me to make up the number. Haha, of course I had to help the whole thing."

"So that's it..." Su Sanniang said thoughtfully, "So, Senior Yang should also know what the prize is, and he is very familiar with the exam content."

Yang Zipeng nodded and said, "No, but I can't tell you the truth about the prize now. In addition, even if you know the content of the exam, it doesn't matter, because it depends on strength to speak. Along the way, the contestants need to cross some terrain and break through some obstacles. In addition, I also specially caught some wild monsters and placed them in the arena to cause trouble for the contestants. All levels are not difficult. After all, although the contestants have signed an agreement at their own risk, we do not want anyone to have an accident. The only thing to compare is speed. In short, come on, Miss Yang, I don't want you young people to be as good as the old man who came to make up for the numbers in the end, hehe."
