The candles were flickering red, the sword light was flickering, and the two people on the stage were fighting for 40 rounds. Zhongli Mei used all his abilities, with every move being extremely ruthless and tricky, like an antelope hanging from a corner, suddenly opening and closing up, his halberd technique was simple and effective, his might was domineering, and although his halberd techniques were powerful and sweeping across the battlefield, but after 10 rounds, he used his old techniques, and after flipping over and over, there were no new techniques, making changes to his techniques, it was already old.
After ten or so rounds, although Han Xin was at a disadvantage, he still managed to endure through it all. He did not try to clash head on with his opponent and had preserved his strength, but he had already understood Zhongli Mei's Halberd Arts, and after pondering for a while, seeing that the other party seemed to be deliberately showing off in front of the other generals, his methods did not change, but followed the same route.
Han Xin memorized the rules of the opponent's attack and deliberately pretended to be unable to defeat him, retreating no matter what. Zhongli Mei was extremely generous, and did not hesitate at all as he attacked with all his strength, not holding back at all.
All the generals, strategists, and officials present clapped their hands and cheered. The maids and iron guards also forgot their emotions as they watched this exciting battle. "Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Xiang Yu's mouth leaked out a smile, and her eyes flickered shrewdly as she said towards Li Yueyao: "Yueyao, how is it? Han Xin is unable to hold on and is at the end of her road. It looks like the results will be revealed very soon. "
Li Yueyao's cold eyes quietly watched the duel between Han Xin and Zhongli Mei, her expression did not change at all, the candlelight shone onto her snow like face, and revealed a bright luster, as though she was a fairy, her entire body emitting a pure and holy aura.
She looked at Han Xin with a puzzled expression, and thought to herself: "Is he really a great warrior force that uses weapons like gods? How come he couldn't even win against a Five Tigers General? Could it be that Long Lang overestimated him and Han Xin only had a false reputation? No way, since Long Lang mentioned him several times, he must have his own unique traits, isn't the competition still going on?
At this moment, Xiang Yu was shocked by the talented girl's fairy-like appearance. She secretly made up her mind that she would obtain Yueyao no matter what, not only because of her flawless body, but also because of his elegant heart.
"Clang …"
Zhongli Mei waved his halberd and struck the fish gut sword, its treasure sword hummed as it was not harmed at all. Han Xin used this chance to retreat a few steps, his body swaying and almost falling down. In everyone's eyes, he had lost, and almost everyone was cheering and cheering for Zhongli Mei.
Zhongli Mei laughed out loud, and shouted: "Han Xin, you've lost, receive another halberd strike from me!" He leapt forward with both hands holding the halberd, his body jumping in the air, his arms shaking, the halberd tip once again turned into countless cold stars, enveloping his opponent's middle plate.
Han Xin's thin and cold face flashed with a confident smile, his eyebrows raised up, and his entire person changed. A powerful aura spread out from him, and his gaze locked onto the long moon halberd, and he roared: "It's my turn to display my might, to see a sword!"
Zhongli Mei was confused, but from the opponent's expression and aura, he could tell that Han Xin was not that simple, could it be that he had some other ultimate killing technique that he did not use? However, his attacks couldn't be stopped. He was a bit weaker in terms of momentum.
Han Xin held up the fish gut sword, his spirits uplifted, he raised her sword in front of his chest and held it horizontally, quickly waving it around, countless of light curtains interweaved to form a sword net in front of his body to block the attack, intersecting with the halberd peak in the air, there was a burst of clear striking sounds, causing the halberd's attack to instantly freeze and disintegrate.
Zhongli Mei was slightly stunned. One move "Thousand-Snake Oscillating Stomp" was broken, followed by another move "Sweeping Army". He concentrated the force in his arms and swept them everywhere, the wind whistled.
Han Xin had already memorized every move of his opponent. Upon seeing this attack, he raised the sword in both hands to the side and used the hilt of the sword to block the tip of the halberd, saving him a lot of energy.
Following that, Han Xin dragged his halberd's hilt and stepped forward quickly. Sparks were formed from the friction of the sword and halberd, he moved his body close to the halberd and slashed towards Zhongli Mei's chest like flowing water.
"Not good!" "Be careful!" All of the officers present cried out. They did not expect that Han Xin's action was quick and strange, easily breaking the two attacks and even seizing the opportunity to counterattack.
In his busy state, Zhongli Mei withdrew one third of the long hilt of the halberd with one hand and blocked it in front of his chest. One used all his strength to counterattack while the other used it temporarily to block.
Zhongli Mei's hands and feet were sore, his body was unstable as he retreated a step. When he was about to swing his halberd back, Han Xin stabbed at him with his sword again, but had no choice but to block again. In the blink of an eye, Han Xin grabbed the opportunity to attack.
Li Yueyao's expression was excited, she smiled at Xiang Yu: "One inch short and one inch dangerous, General Zhongli is already at the end of his strength, Han Xin is indeed not ordinary."
Xiang Yu was stunned by the pure and holy smile that was like a blossoming snow lotus, victory or defeat, hegemony or whatever, all of it was thrown to the back of his mind, his smile was in the center of his mind. At this moment, she was mesmerized, intoxicated by his peerless beauty.
Li Yueyao felt his scorching gaze, and a blush crawled up her cheeks as she rolled her eyes at him. Her bright and beautiful eyes once again returned to the battlefield, and she sighed in her heart: "Long Lang's words are indeed not wrong, Han Xin is good at strategy and excellent in sword arts. She is indeed a rare talent, how can I find him for a private conversation, and persuade him to become Long Lang's subordinate?
Xiang Yu was stunned for a while before realizing that she had lost her composure. With a dry cough, she covered her embarrassment, her eyes unwillingly entering the field. However, her heart was focused on the talented girl, her face filled with love.
Zhongli Mei blocked twenty rounds, causing him to be unable to control his strength, causing danger to erupt everywhere, causing his heart to be filled with rage. He roared loudly, and like thunder, he gathered all the strength in his body to launch a barrage of attacks, forcefully interrupting Han Xin's chain of attacks, causing the two of them to sway and retreat, forming a confrontation.
Fan Zeng clapped his hands and laughed: "Good! "Two warriors will spar to add to the excitement of the banquet, and at the same time demonstrate the manliness of a man. In this match, as a notary, how will the outcome be?"
Han Xin was still distracted by how things had ended, but upon hearing that, he became overjoyed, sheathed his sword, and bowed while saying, "Han Xin knows that he was unable to win, and is willing to listen to the decisions of the Military Advisor Fan and the General Xiang!"
But Zhongli Mei shouted: "This is impossible, the victor has not been decided, how can we stop the competition, I trust that the generals will not agree to this end. Military Advisor Fan, Zhongli Mei knows that Sir is worried about the fight between the two tigers, and will definitely be injured, please do not worry, both Han Xin and I will stop here, please allow the general and the advisors to continue the competition!"
"That's right, we must fight to the end." That's right, otherwise it would be too depressing. " The generals were all shouting and shouting with high spirits. Their interest was piqued by the splendid battle. How could they be willing to give up?
After Xiang Yu glanced at Li Yueyao, she said loudly: "Since the two of you know that you have to stop fighting, you can let go of whatever you want, and use your true abilities to show off your manliness; Han Xin, this is your only chance, if this general sees that you have an ultimate skill, it would be disrespectful to General Zhongli Mei, and it would also be to deceive the Commander for an unforgivable crime, so we must use all of our strength in this battle.
Fan Zeng, Chen Ping and Han Sheng looked at the main marshal in confusion, not knowing why he forced the two of them to come to a conclusion, only Li Yueyao understood what was going on and silently nodded.
Zhongli Mei laughed loudly: "Understood!" He stared at his opponent and bellowed: Han Xin, your sword techniques are not low, what abilities do you have, this is your only chance to be a commander, if you lose or give up, you will never be able to stand up in Chu Army, if you are able to win against me with your own abilities, I am convinced of your abilities, hahaha … After you become the commander, Zhongli Mei will personally become the vanguard for you. How about we guard the Hangu Pass together? "
Han Xin stood on the stage calmly, like a majestic mountain, he nodded his head and did not make a sound, his left hand held the treasure sword tightly, the sword in its sheath, he did not have any intent to reveal it, as he struggled in his heart: "Why? Why do you insist on forcing me to make a move? Just as the opponent had said, this is my only chance, I cannot hide my true strength anymore. This competition is my stepping stone to the path of a general, I, Han Xin, will make use of this chance to become the champion! "
When Zhongli Mei saw the other party's aura suddenly increase by two to three times, with a cold glint in his eyes, it seemed as if he was cold and aloof, a strong killing intent quickly rushed over. His fighting spirit was unavoidably affected by the fluctuations, and for the first time, he felt that his opponent was terrifying.
In order to get rid of the enemy's aura, Zhongli Mei decided to strike first. He took a deep breath, and thrusted his halberd forward, like a ferocious tiger coming out of its lair, like a dragon emerging from the sea, the attack was extremely sharp, his body rushing out in front of it. With every step, everyone's hearts would tremble, this tempo was like the death god's note of life.
Xiang Yu squinted, and stared at Zhongli Mei, saying in his heart: "You must win!"
Li Yueyao's eyes flashed, she gazed at Han Xin and thought: You cannot lose!
Victory and defeat only happened in a single move, but it actually caused different emotions from the audience. Now that the match had progressed to this stage, it was no longer a one-sided battle.
Han Xin stood tall and straight like a mountain, his sword not unsheathed, his body not moving at all as he stared at the changes in Zhongli Mei's attack, reaching the peak of his opponent's strength, position, moves, direction and so on. When the halberd was just a few feet away from him, he suddenly strode forward, as fast as a meteor, and before everyone present could see what he was doing, a cold light flashed, and the curtain of swords wrapped around his body, as Han Xin's roar came out from the sword light: "One strike from the Han family, peerless under the heavens!"
"Zheng …"
In the blink of an eye, the halberd was pulled by the force of the great sword and flew out of his hands uncontrollably. When he opened his eyes, he was shocked to find that the other party's sword tip was just three inches away from his throat, while Han Xin stood right in front of him like a war god, the cold light in his eyes made him shiver.
Everyone present was silent. They were all shocked by this sword and felt a sense of reverence towards it.
