Chapter 236 Who can beat you two?
Li Xuan also said,
"Your Highness is right. Grudges, revenge killings, and assassinations often happen at night. The enemy won't stop killing you just because it's night.
When it gets dark, it’s the time to truly test your skills, the time to test all the abilities of a master.
Seeing the enemy is not a skill; defeating an invisible enemy is a real skill."
Zhang Xian sighed upon hearing this, and asked the people around with torches to stay away to give the two masters a chance to have a fair fight.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, it was completely dark. Not only could the people around not see what was happening on the ring, even the two people on the ring could hardly see each other.
Tu Queling in the stands suddenly said,
"The prince is going to win."
Su Wuan was startled when he heard this and said,
"Is it true? Why do you say that?"
"Dark night is his home ground."
Tu Queling said slowly.
The dark night is the assassin's best friend and the best disguise for them.
Shen Changgong had his own ulterior motive for not allowing anyone to light the torch.
He had long since adapted and gotten used to fighting at night, but Li Xuan had not.
Shen Changgong was able to capture his opponent's figure and moves through a little bit of faint light and shadow to make a judgment.
But Li Xuan could basically only determine the location by listening to the sound.
Shen Changgong and Li Xuan fought for dozens of rounds, but neither of them could defeat the other.
The people around were basically silent, for fear that their voices would disturb the people on the ring from identifying their positions.
All they could hear was the constant sound of swords clashing and metal clashing coming from the ring.
Suddenly, the two distanced themselves from each other again.
Shen Changgong stood there moving quickly, using the sound of his footsteps to confuse Li Xuan, and then slowed down his pace and came silently to Li Xuan's side.
He held his breath and quietly threw the knife in his left hand to the other side of Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was fully focused, and when he heard the sound, he immediately turned and faced that direction.
But at that moment, he realized something was wrong.
How could the knife make a sound of falling to the ground when it was in Shen Changgong's hand?
There is something fishy going on here!
However, it was already too late.
Li Xuan felt a cold touch on his neck.
The knife came from behind and was placed on his neck.
"Master Li, you lose."
Shen Changgong's voice came from the darkness.
People holding torches nearby hurried over to see what was going on.
As the fire appeared, the people around could see clearly that a man was standing behind Li Xuan with a knife on his neck.
The matter is settled, Li Xuan lost.
If it was a life-and-death battle, Li Xuan would have been dead.
Li Xuan sighed, put down his sword, and said,
"I lost."
The people around cheered.
Cheers to the final outcome of this fair fight.
No one thought that Shen Changgong's sneak attack was wrong.
The so-called sneak attack is when the opponent is off guard and doesn't know you are going to attack, and you suddenly attack and defeat him. This is called unethical and is called a sneak attack.
But Li Xuan did not relax his vigilance. The two had been fighting for a long time, and it was impossible for Li Xuan not to know that Shen Changgong would attack him.
Moreover, Shen Changgong did not use poison or hidden weapons, but defeated his opponent with the knife in his hand.
Win fair and square.
Although the night provided some environmental influence, both people were affected, so it was still fair.
Shen Changgong took off the knife in his right hand, picked up the knife in his left hand, and put it back into his waist.
Li Xuan also sheathed his sword.
Zhang Xian came up and said loudly,
"Everyone, this martial arts tournament has officially come to an end. Does anyone have any objections to this competition?"
There was complete silence below, and no one raised any questions. After all, this battle was fair. Although they were unwilling to let a royal prince become the leader of the martial arts world, being unreasonable would only make them look like they could not afford to lose.
Seeing that no one questioned him, Zhang Xian continued,
"Well then, I, Zhang Xian, as a supporter of this martial arts conference, officially declare:
The strongest person in this martial arts conference is Prince Shen, the King of Lanling!
The leader of this martial arts conference is..."
"Wait a moment!"
As soon as Shen Changgong's voice came out, the people around him looked over, wondering what he was going to do.
Zhang Xian was surprised.
"Your Majesty, do you have any objections?"
"Of course, I have something to say."
Shen Changgong said,
"I remember that when everyone comes up, they can say who they support, right?"
"That's true, but you are all..."
"Master Li, who do you support?"
Li Xuan sighed and said
"I originally supported Fairy Meiyan. As everyone knows, I'm used to being a free and unrestrained person, and I don't want to be burdened by the position of alliance leader."
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar below.
Especially Li Xuan's supporters, their hearts were almost broken.
No, what are you doing?
We took the trouble to challenge you just to support you, but you said you support Fairy Meiyan?
Then what is the point of us fighting?
Shen Changgong continued,
"Then I also have something to say. I support Master Li."
"what?"
Zhang Xian was stunned.
Shen Changgong smiled and said,
"Master Zhang, now that Li Xuan's supporters, that is, this king, have defeated Fairy Meiyan's supporters, that is, Li Xuan, who do you think should be the leader of the martial arts world?"
It’s numb. Everyone below is numb.
What's going on? Let's take a look.
Master Li did not want to be the leader of the martial arts world, so he supported Fairy Mei Yan, so that if he could defeat King Lanling, he would not have to be the leader of the martial arts world.
Lanling Wang wanted Li Xuan to be the leader of the alliance, so he fought on behalf of Li Xuan and then defeated Li Xuan, so that Li Xuan became the leader of the alliance.
What kind of logic is this?
Li Xuan, if you don't want to be the leader, why are you here? You want to be the leader but you can't be the leader.
Even if Li Xuan doesn't want to be the leader, you, King Lanling, will have to let him be the leader even if you defeat him.
Okay, okay, this is how you play, right?
Let’s play, who can beat you two?
Shen Changgong ignored their feelings and asked below,
"This king supports Li Xuan as the leader of the martial arts world. Who supports and who opposes?"
There was silence below.
"Master Zhang, look, there's no one objecting. Let's announce the results."
Zhang Xian was a little confused and looked at Li Xuan.
"Don't look at him. If he objects, I'll give him another beating."
Li Xuan smiled bitterly and said to Zhang Xian,
"Master Zhang, Prince Lanling won first place and he supports me, so I will be the leader. I won second place and I support Fairy Meiyan, so Fairy Meiyan will be the deputy leader."
"Ok."
"I, Zhang Xian, hereby announce that the leader of the Great Yan Martial Arts Alliance will be Li Xuan, the owner of the Snow Sword Villa.
The position of deputy leader is held by Fairy Mei Yan, the owner of Jiutian Tower.
From now on, these two will give orders to the martial arts world of Dayan, and no one dares to disobey, otherwise they will be severely punished!
I hope you will help each other and fight against the Yan Society together!"
