The twelfth day of the second lunar month, gold in the sea, the inauguration ceremony! Abstinence from entering the house, peaceful burial, suitable for marriage, sacrifice, enlightenment, travel!
It was also on this day that the curtains were officially opened at the 1-5 star hotel in Kaifeng Qing Ming's Upper River Garden.
The international phase art competition was a grand gathering in the world's wealthiest martial arts world. It was planned by the leading figures of the martial arts world of various countries, and then it was planned by the forces of the secular world. The first international phase art competition was held because of the Second World War. There were countless collisions between different countries because they thought that they had reached a balance. At that time, someone suggested that a competition be held to honor the victor!
Later on, although the war had ended, the tradition of holding an international competition had been preserved and would be held once every ten years. His purpose was to change the identity of the victor into the promotion of various cultures so that the world could understand more about the affairs of the martial world and expand their influence. Of course, the most important thing was to raise their cultivation base!
Since the end of the Second World War, the event that took place today was considered to be a normal one, and the commotion was not that great. Many of the true masters had directly not come to participate in the next few competitions. He counted the number on his fingers. It was only the seventh time that the International Year Tournament had been held.
However, this time's competition was much more grand compared to previous competitions. Not only were there disciples of the various martial arts sects in China, there were also Qi Menjianghuzhongren from all over the world who were invited. There were diviners, astrologers, Descending Division s from Southeast Asia, Yin Yang masters from Japan, and even some leaders from sects from Africa that were present at the scene!
"This apothecary competition isn't so simple!" Zhang Sanfeng walked to the entrance of the hotel and looked at the black mass of people in front of him. Lin Bai was still young, so he knew nothing about the Star Mastermind Competition. Back then, he had also come to see it before, but he had never seen it done so vividly and vividly like this year's competition.
Lin Bai nodded his head, and said in a low voice: "I had discussed this matter with Elder Chen before. It is said that this time, it was funded and organized by a wealthy businessman. But how could a businessman have so much face and invite so many elites with high eyesight? "Therefore, there must be something behind this matter!"
"I say, this is definitely because of that old brat Chen Qiling!" After looking around, Zhang Sanfeng said in a deep voice, "It must be because he still had some ill feelings towards you, Junior Brother, for stealing away his Celestial Fortune Telling Sect's Sect Leader and losing the inheritance of the Innate Book. That's why he arranged such a huge scene to make things difficult for you.
"Who cares what he does. I'll take care of one of them, I'll take care of two of them. I'll make sure to make his trick fail. He actually killed me without a sound. I won't forgive him for this!" Lin Bai's eyes revealed a sinister look, and said coldly.
Zhang Sanfeng nodded, and turned to look around, laughing: "I have to say, during the competition for the Xiang Fu, it is indeed a good choice. "It's indeed a great place to go to the river garden and enjoy the clear and beautiful scenery!"
Kaifeng is one of the eight ancient capitals of China. Its historical and cultural heritage are very rich and its urban pattern is very early. The ancient city is rich in style and features, and the northern water city is unique. It also reflects the ancient city's long historical tradition and rich cultural connotation. In the history, Kai Feng relied on the roving rivers and lakes, mild climate, and convenient transportation. He was a place that the Chinese army had always fought for!
The city wall was grand, and the culture was brilliant. The ancients once had a poem, "The Five Phoenix Restaurant, The Sect Destroyed From The Ancient Emperor's State." During the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng changed his name to Bijing. It was the political, economic, military, cultural, and commercial center of China at that time. It was also the most prosperous city in the world at that time.
"How can the ancient capital of the seven dynasties be so simple?" Moreover, this Kai Feng is the only city in the world that has not changed since ancient times, and this is something that is hard to come by. " Lin Bai nodded after hearing it, and sighed.
Just as Lin Bai had finished speaking, a voice with a ridiculing laughter came from behind him, and said slowly: "What Seven Dynasties Ancient Capital, what central axis has never been changed before. "This place is really far worse than our Seoul. If you want me to say, the venue for this year's international competition should be Korea!"
Lin Bai was startled to hear this voice, and then revealed a strange smile. Fate, it was not like enemies did not meet. The previous day, when he heard the Old Master Chen talk about Korean Koreans, he had actually met this group of people right after he had arrived in Kaifeng.
"Simida, if I were to say so, the world's number one historical and cultural city should be Seoul, Korea. The land is vast and the people are great. It is the only blessed place on this planet!" Lin Bai smiled as he turned his head to look at Li Shunzai, who was shamelessly boasting by the side and commenting about the layout of Qing Ming's River Garden, smiling as he spoke.
Hearing this, Li Shunzai's face lit up, and he anxiously said, "That's right. The reason Seoul can become the capital of our Republic of Korea, is naturally because you have an unparalleled historical and cultural aura.
"Gao Li, what the hell are you talking about? What do you mean Kaifeng's layout was copied from your Seoul! "When Kaifeng became the capital, I reckon that you people in Seoul were still wearing your pants and running all over the place. How did it end up like that?!" If uncle could endure it, aunt could not. If Lin Bai could endure all the bullshit of the Koreans, but Zhang Sanfeng could not!
Li Shunzai was startled when he heard it, and then looked towards Lin Bai and Zhang Sanfeng. When he looked over, Li Shunzai's face immediately revealed a sinister smile. Although Lin Bai had changed a lot in the past half year, but with his meticulous observation, he was still able to see through it. The matter of Lin Bai humiliating him in public was still on his mind and even if Lin Bai turned into ashes in his heart, he would still be able to part with it!
"It's not like enemies don't meet. Master Li, we meet again." Lin Bai saw that Li Shunzai was glaring at him like a tiger eyeing its prey, but he did not get angry, and smiled faintly, then greeted him with a teasing tone.
Li Shunzai clenched his teeth, and stared at Lin Bai: "Stinking brat, I originally planned to look for you to fight after the opening of the International Phase Art Competition, but who would have known that you would actually appear yourself! "Today, I must tell you something. I want to see who is more skilled in the art of dating between us!"
Zhang Sanfeng laughed when he heard Li Shunzai's words, even today, there was actually someone who dared to challenge Lin Bai, if that wasn't asking for death! The current Lin Bai was no longer the Lin Bai of before, with a single move of this brat's, even Zhang Sanfeng was unable to see through his aura, and did not know what realm his cultivation had reached anymore.
"Since you want to play with me, then I'll play with you today." However, when we were in the Yanjing, Master, when are you going to return the bet to us? " Lin Bai did not care about the provocation in his words, and continued to speak carelessly, but every time he said the word "Master", he emphasized a little, making people uncomfortable!
Just when Li Shunzai was gritting his teeth and wanted to curse a few words at Lin Bai … A bald middle-aged man, who had been standing behind him without a sound all this time, suddenly spoke, "Shunsuing, come back. You are no match for this gentleman!"
Lin Bai was surprised, he did not expect that such an experienced person could be one of these Gao Li Bars.
Just when he was shocked by this person's reaction, the bald middle-aged man unhurriedly said: "Let me teach you one move, in a while when you compete with him, you will definitely have the upper hand. This will also open the eyes of these Chinese people, they will know that the technique is derived from us, Korea, and the technique they practice is just a side issue of our school!"
"" After hearing that, Lin Bai's good impression of the bald middle-aged man immediately disappeared. He thought that Li Shunzai, who was arrogant and conceited, was born with a personality that disregarded history. However, he never expected that it was something that was passed down from a sect, and was rooted in tradition.
After the bald middle-aged man whispered a few words to Li Shunzai, he looked at Lin Bai coldly and said lightly: "Shunsuh, you don't have to use your full strength in the competition later on, allow this little brother to win. Someone said that, as a descendant of the country of origin of photographic skills, we can even fight against a mere cat or dog, and lost the demeanor of a master! "
"Disciple will remember this in his heart. I will definitely let him experience our Korea's most profound phase technique!" Li Shunzai nodded his head, bowed towards the bald middle-aged man, and then turned to Lin Bai and said sternly: "I'll let you know what a true phase art is today!"
"Alright, let's do the calculation today!" Li Shunzai pointed to a waiter who was watching the show and said in a deep voice, "Think of a number in your heart, and the longer the number, the better. Then, write it on a piece of paper to see who can guess the right one for him and me!"
Betting on numbers? Lin Bai was startled, this was truly an unprecedented challenge for him, the majority of the Chinese Master s were people who would give their approval or use wind and water, this kind of borrowing the environment around them to figure out numbers, he had never done this before, nor had he heard of such a thing.
"I've finished writing. You two can begin!" The attendant was also happy to watch the show. After chanting for a while in her heart, she picked up the brush and wrote a long line on a piece of paper. Then, she smiled while looking at Lin Bai and Li Shunzai in front of her.
Lin Bai looked at the young man in front of him in silence. His mind was spinning quickly, the surrounding five elements, the Qi of the Earth and the position the young man was standing, everything was in his thoughts!
Li Shunzai's expression was incomparably heavy as his fingers continuously pinched against each other. His gaze was fixated on the fingers of the bald middle-aged man placed on the side of his leg!
Time was spinning. It was as if everyone had a new clock in their minds, ticking away!
