Cheng Tian's strength is obvious to all, he defeated the Little Sword Saint Xuanyuanhu.
As for Li Shimin's words, everyone knows that the bottom of the boat is full of water.
In the end, Li Shimin also knew that, as the emperor, he couldn't mess with other finals.
Moreover, it would be disgraceful to win by yourself, and it would be even more embarrassing if you lost.
It's better to abstain directly, and still have a good reputation.
Therefore, Li Shimin announced that he had abstained from participating in this competition.
In an instant, a group of swordsmen stepped forward and praised Li Shimin for his boundless love.
Li Shimin is also very satisfied in his heart, such a move is the best of both worlds.
Not only did he not lose the game, he also earned a good reputation.
However, this **** off the organizers.
Originally, the masked man planned to send water swordsman Cheng Tian to assassinate Li Shimin in the final.
But who knew that Li Shimin would not participate in the competition?
Moreover, at this moment, beside Li Shimin, there are many swordsmen guarding him.
Yun Feiyang and Ye Jiandi, even the masked men, didn't dare to act rashly for a while.
Therefore, they only need to carry out the finals to the end, and then arrange an assassination plan.
Although the masked man is distressed, as long as Li Shimin does not leave Longhu Mountain, he has a hundred ways to kill Li Shimin!
…
"Okay, then the next step is the final of the Longhushan Sword Fighting Competition!"
The little brother in black walked onto the ring and coughed.
"Ahem, because of our benevolent emperor, we have abstained from the competition! Therefore, the two participating in the finals this time are Li Chengfeng, the eighth prince of the Tang Dynasty, and Cheng Tian! Next, I invite two contestants to step onto the ring and start the competition. !"
After speaking, the little brother in black walked off the ring.
Then, the spectators off the field began to discuss.
Some people said that now Cheng Tian would not give in to the Eighth Prince. It is estimated that the Eighth Prince would lose if he could not survive two moves in Cheng Tian's hands.
Others said, yes, I didn't expect that this year's Longhushan Sword Fighting Competition would be taken advantage of by a newcomer? If I'm lucky and meet the Eighth Prince in the final, I can win too!
The old sword master Yun Feiyang let go of the water and deliberately lost to the Eighth Prince, otherwise, how could Cheng Tian have the turn to be arrogant?
Yes, but I think the Eighth Prince still has a chance of winning!
After all, he is the Eighth Prince.
So what if you get the reputation of being the number one swordsman in the world? Can it be eaten as a meal?
If you take the initiative to lose to the Eighth Prince, maybe you can get a half-time job in the palace, and you will be able to rise to the top in the future, that's all right.
Yes, what you said makes sense.
Maybe Cheng Tian will also take the initiative to admit defeat, alas!
In the face of the temptation of absolute power, your reputation as the number one swordsman in the world may not be as prestigious as a seventh-rank official in the court.
If Cheng Tian is a smart person, believe him, he will definitely choose to lose to the Eighth Prince.
…
But in fact, Cheng Tian received 5,000 taels of gold from the masked man just to assassinate Li Shimin.
Once the assassination is successful and the 5,000 taels of gold arrives in the account, Cheng Tian in the future will be able to live a carefree life without worrying about food and clothing.
The wages of avarice is death.
In this age of spiritual scarcity, money is everything.
…
"Damn it, I didn't expect Li Shimin to abstain? Then my opponent is the Eighth Prince? Should I kill him or not?"
Cheng Tian looked at the child opposite him, and couldn't help hesitating in his heart.
If he kills the eighth prince, he won't get any benefit.
Because his target is Li Shimin.
"Forget it, the Eighth Prince is just a child, it's better not to kill him, just defeat him!"
Cheng Tian thought to himself.
Afterwards, he took a deep breath, looked at Li Chengfeng, and said, "Eighth Prince, come on, please enlighten me!"
"Okay, what's the way to compete? Compete in the way of swordsmanship, or compete in artistic conception?"
Li Chengfeng looked at Cheng Tian with serious eyes.
In the way of swordsmanship, that is the hard power of the blades of the two sides touching each other, and the artistic conception of the sword competition, that is, the two stand still.
Cheng Tian smiled and thought: Sure enough, the Eighth Prince just wanted to fool me into admitting defeat, right? I don't!
Even if I fail to kill Li Shimin, I still want the title of the world's number one swordsman.
So Cheng Tian said: "It's not about artistic conception, let's compare swordsmanship!"
"Okay, as you wish!"
After speaking, Li Chengfeng began to dig out his pockets again.
Everyone present didn't know what Li Chengfeng was going to do.
In the end, Li Chengfeng took out a golden long sword directly from his pocket,
"Hey, it's time for the finals, it's time for you to make your debut!"
Li Chengfeng held a long sword as high as his shoulders in both hands.
This long sword shone with golden light under the sun, very dazzling and dazzling.
The moment the sword was drawn, there seemed to be a slight sound of dragon chant?
This can't help but make everyone present exclaim: What a sword, what a sword!
However, Yun Feiyang felt very depressed, and said: "You are all praising the sword in the Eighth Prince's hand. Am I the only one who wonders what the Eighth Prince is doing to pull such a long sword out of his pocket? ?"
Emperor Ye Jian felt very puzzled by this, and said, "Yun Feiyang, why does the Eighth Prince put the sword in his trouser pocket?"
Yun Feiyang shook his head and said, "I don't know! Li Junxian, can you explain it?"
Yun Feiyang knew that Li Junxian and Li Chengfeng had a good relationship.
Li Junxian's martial arts were abolished before, but the current kung fu is all taught by Li Chengfeng.
Li Junxian coughed, and said: "Ahem, it's actually very simple, it's just a blindfold, the Eighth Prince told me himself!"
"Blinding? Are you sure it's not a spell?"
"The Eighth Prince told me, I don't know!"
It is impossible to hide such a long sword in a small pocket.
Moreover, as soon as this sword came out, it had the sound of dragon chants, which gave people a thrilling feeling Among the crowd, someone suddenly shouted, saying: "I have seen it before, I read it in the ancient book I have seen this precious sword before, this is the emperor's Xuanyuan sword, Xuanyuan sword, the dragon-slaying Xuanyuan sword!"
"What? Xuanyuan Sword?"
"Isn't this impossible, Xuanyuan Sword, the head of the top ten ancient weapons? This is impossible. Didn't this long sword disappear into history long ago?"
"However, judging from his appearance and the description in the ancient books, this long sword seems to be really the Xuanyuan Sword?"
"I didn't expect such a precious sword to be in the hands of the Eighth Prince? Sigh, we are superficial!"
At this moment, everyone explained that they were extremely surprised and dumbfounded.
Many swordsmen have never been able to find a good sword in their entire life.
So when they saw the Xuanyuan Sword in Li Chengfeng's hands, everyone looked enviously.
Even Yun Feiyang and Emperor Ye Jian were yearning for it.
Only Cheng Tian on the stage showed disdain, and said: "Eight Prince, Xuanyuan Sword is the first of the top ten magic weapons in ancient times. Although it is a precious sword, you must be able to use its true power. Otherwise, how can you defeat me?"
