When he sensed his opponent's swift movement, he knew that the situation was not good. Unfortunately, he had just used too much strength to shift his weight forward, and was unable to adjust his body in time to face the enemy. In that moment of danger, he stabbed the sword into the back of his hand.

"Clang!" The crisp sound of a sword striking could be heard in the hall. The fish gut sword was extremely sharp, with all of Han Xin's strength gathered together, it slashed onto Zhongli Mei's long sword and immediately split the opponent's treasured sword into two, slicing it into two.

Even though Zhongli Mei's sudden block of defense was at a disadvantage, he had finally managed to escape danger. Borrowing the residual force from his opponent's sword, he leaned forward and consecutively stepped out of the range of the sword beam in three steps, turned his body and stuck out with his sword at a distance. The sword was already crippled, the light had yet to fade, under the light of the candle, the cold air was like frost.

Han Xin did not seize the opportunity to attack. Instead, he stood at the center of the field and faced Zhongli Mei with a composed demeanor.

"Alright!" All the guests and generals applauded and applauded. They never thought that the first three rounds of the match would be so brilliant, and that it would be an intense battle with life and death.

Zhongli Mei's gaze fell upon the sword in his hand, and said loudly: "We are at a disadvantage with the Concealed Sword, but our interest is deep, and the victor is not yet decided, let us compete again, and bring the long moon halberd over."

In a moment, two guards entered the hall. On their shoulders, they carried a three-meter-long metal halberd. The sharp ears of the halberd were embedded at the tip of the halberd, making it seem as if it weighed a few dozen kilograms.

Zhongli Mei reached out and grabbed the halberd, he touched the ground and stood up straight, like a god of war, staring at Han Xin. After the guards retreated, the remaining two people on the stage faced off, the swords drawn, the atmosphere immediately became tense.

"Han Zhonglang, what a sharp sword. Can you tell me the name of this treasured sword?" Zhongli Mei did not praise his opponent for his brilliant sword techniques, but praised his treasured sword's sharpness, obviously, he was not convinced that he had been disadvantaged in the last three rounds, which meant that he had to rely on his treasured sword's benefits, in order to gain the upper hand, it was nothing heroic.

Han Xin remained impassive as he continued, "The treasure sword is called the caviar, it is one of the famous swords of the State of Yue, it can cut hair and cut iron like mud, General Zhong must be careful!"

The fish gut sword was also known as the Hidden Fish Sword, and was rumored to have been created by the Sword Crafting Master, Ou Yezi, as the King of Yue. He had used the tin of the Scarlet Corona Mountain, the copper of Ruoye Creek, after being struck by lightning and struck by rain, he obtained the essence of heaven and earth, and then created five swords, one of which was Zhanlu, Pure Jun, Shengxie, Fish Intestine and Giant Que.

The ancient Forging Treasure Sword was quite legendary because people believed that the body and the spirit of the sword could be fused together, and they had an almost idolizing feeling towards the sharp sword, which was why there was blood, sacrifice, and tragedy that would cause people to give their lives to the furnace. Fortunately, this kind of thing had not happened during the process of forging the fish gut sword. Detail in "Wu Yue Chunqiu")

Zhongli Mei raised his halberd to establish his might, he kept his contempt and spoke boldly: "Alright, if you can win against the moon halberd in my hands, becoming a commander is not difficult, if you lose, don't even think about standing in the army anymore!"

Han Xin said: "A man's words are as good as gold, there are no complaints at all. General Zhongli had already given me three moves, there is no need to be merciful now, please make your move!" He was clearly the one who had relied on his true sword techniques to gain the upper hand, but he had deliberately lifted the other party high up, leaving Zhongli Mei face.

Initially, they did not understand that Zhongli Mei's might was actually being forced into a disadvantageous position by a young general. After hearing Han Xin's words, they "came to a sudden realization" and realized that General Zhong had actually purposely given him three moves, but it was only after seeing with their sharp eyes that Xiang Yu, Li Yueyao and Ji Bu were able to understand the subtle relationship between them. They could not help but have a whole new level of respect for Han Xin.

Zhongli Mei's personality was straightforward and straightforward. Being praised by him, he was a little proud and pleased in front of everyone, thinking that Han Xin was a pretty tactful person, but after feeling that he had face, his disgust and annoyance towards Han Xin disappeared, and he shouted: "Han Xin, use all your abilities, and fight with me fair and square. At that time, no matter who wins or loses, everyone will wholeheartedly accept it. His tone was not as haughty and gentle as before, but instead exuded the bearing of a general.

After Han Xin saw the slight change in his opponent, he smiled elegantly and waved his sword to point at his opponent. His expression revealed a trace of confidence, and he said: "Please advise me, General Zhong!"

Zhongli Mei did not speak anymore, with a wave of his halberd, countless lights that looked like they were real appeared on the tip of the halberd, but they were fake but it looked like they were real, like a poisonous snake spitting out its core, ready to devour its opponent at any time.

This long-hilted moon halberd was Zhongli Mei's famous weapon, it was extremely sharp, it had beheaded countless of Qin Army's enemies on the battlefield, and on horseback, it required the enemy to be precise, ruthless and fast, so their moves were simple and effective, with astonishing power.

Han Xin saw the halberd piercing towards him, it was seemingly real, he could not even see where the tip of the halberd was, and was dazzled by the light screen. He was shocked, it was said that Zhongli Mei, as one of the Five Tigers General s under Xiang Yu's command, had an outstanding ability, with such a sword technique, how many people on horseback could resist it?

Seeing that the halberd tip was almost within three inches of his defense, he could not afford to think any further. Relying on his clear spirit will and innate reaction, he gripped his sword with both hands and gritted his teeth, chopping at the area where the light was most concentrated.

"Clang …" The sword and halberd collided, and the sound shook the banquet hall. The humming sound lingered in everyone's ears, attracting the gazes of everyone present, causing them to tense up.

Using the advantage of his heavy blade, Zhongli Mei unleashed the thunder attack the moment he attacked, completely displaying the characteristics of his long weapon, showing off his former glory. After one round, he gathered the strength of both of his arms around his halberd, turned around and swept across the entire army, the crescent-shaped blade swept towards his opponent's waist, not giving Han Xin the slightest opportunity to catch his breath and retaliate.

In this exchange, Han Xin was unable to withstand the powerful force, and took a step back uncontrollably. Seeing that Zhongli Mei had struck out again with his second move, the tip of the halberd struck horizontally at him, giving off a strong wind, causing cold qi to surge everywhere, the momentum was astonishing, thinking that this fellow had a unique killing technique, if he were to clash head on with the halberd, he would definitely suffer a loss, and with his short cultivation, it was an unwise move. Moreover, Zhongli Mei had an arm that was stronger than him.

While his mind was spinning, he dodged to the back to avoid the sweeping attack, but in the last two rounds, Han Xin had already retreated three steps, and was completely at a disadvantage.

When the generals saw General Zhong Li display his prowess, they cheered and cheered. Suddenly, the atmosphere of the banquet boiled up with cheers, applause, applause, and cheers. It was extremely lively and bustling.

Li Yueyao knew that she had to wait and see how Han Xin would resolve the situation. Zhongli Mei was an expert in horse combat, and was proficient in long hilt fights, but under a round of fierce attacks, his strength was the fastest. No one could predict who would win!

Under the gazes of everyone present, Zhongli Mei pulled back his face, his spirits high, and thought that an opponent was hard to find, but he had to fight properly. With a loud roar, he waved his halberd and rushed forward, with extreme speed, like a lion hunting a rabbit, in a few dozen moves, he looked extremely ordinary, but it was impossible to stop it, and after dozens of rounds, he had completely suppressed Han Xin to the point where he seemed weak.

Xiang Yu smiled slightly, thinking to herself that half of Zhongli Mei's halberd art was taught to him by her foster father, while the other half was self-developed and created by him, which was only slightly weaker than her own Sky Dragon City Destroying Halberd Art. With its incomparable might and might, she turned and smiled lightly at Li Yueyao: "General Zhong Li's halberd art, has only been unleashed by a small portion, yet Han Xin is already in a situation of being beaten passively, I am afraid that he won't be able to endure for long."

When he heard it, his gaze shifted from the arena to Xiang Yu, and met his gaze that was burning hot like thirst, and said indifferently: "In my opinion, even though General Zhong Li's halberd art is powerful, and even though the battle on the horse is unstoppable, but on the ground, he's strong as a tiger at first, but not as light and nimble as a treasure sword. In my opinion, the outcome cannot be decided easily until the very last moment!"

However, Long Tianyu was famous for his longsword, and when the talented woman mentioned that his halberd art was not as good as Long Tianyu's sword arts, it seemed as if her halberd art was not as good as Long Tianyu's. It was said that the person who heard it had no intention to listen, and was not convinced: "Yueyao, do you dare to bet with me, and see who will be the final victor?"

Li Yueyao's dainty face slightly expanded as she smiled: "The Senior General is definitely optimistic about General Zhong Li, so how about Yueyao bet on Han Xin gaining the upper hand?"

Xiang Yu understood Zhongli Mei's capabilities, and said: "Alright, it's decided then. If Yueyao loses, in the future, I'll have to follow Xiang Yu and help him resolve the problem, and work hard to help Chu with everything, and I won't be able to help Long Tianyu anymore!"

Li Yueyao looked at him with a strange expression. He did not reply, and only silently nodded his head, because he could not personally speak words that would backfire, and even more so, he did not want to never see his husband again. He silently said to himself in his heart: "Han Xin will not lose!"

Since he was valued so highly by Long Lang, he would definitely not be inferior to any of Xiang Yu's Five Tigers General. She shifted her gaze back to the fierce battle on the stage, and thought to herself, "Han Xin will win, right Long Lang?"
