The First Immortal of Swordsmanship

Chapter 309: Autumn Military Competition

Don't even say your name?

The pretty girl couldn't help but smile and said: "Could it be that the young master is a noble person with extraordinary status? Are you worried that if you tell your name, we will put you on a high pedestal?"

Su Yi said: "I'm worried that I'll involve you."

"Tired?"

The pretty girl was startled for a moment and then said, "Did you cause some trouble? Why don't you tell us? Maybe we can help you."

Su Yi smiled and said: "It's not a disaster, I can solve it myself."

Seeing that the pretty girl wanted to ask again, the young man in white robe stopped him and said, "Junior sister, this young master has something unspeakable, so don't ask anymore."

After a pause, he said to Su Yi in a gentle voice: "If you need help, Master, as long as we can help, we will definitely not refuse."

The words were calm, but with a sense of confidence.

People like Su Yi have long seen that this pair of senior brothers and sisters are not hypocritical people, and they have a rare righteousness in them.

If his inference was correct, these two people should have not encountered too many setbacks and ups and downs until now, and they still have a sense of chivalry in their hearts.

This made him feel a little emotional, but he didn't know whether he would be able to maintain his chivalrous and courageous nature in the years to come, after being severely beaten by the world.

Although Su Yi didn't ask about it on the way, through the brother and sister's inquiring, he already knew that the young man in white robe was named Fu Qingyuan.

The pretty girl's name is Gu Caining.

Both came from the Xingya Academy located in Hongzhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

On the bank of Qinglan River, Qiu Ming Ferry.

When Su Yi and the others arrived, they saw the vast river in the distance, the water was turbulent, the waves were crashing on the shore, and the waves were like snow, which was really spectacular.

On the side of Qiu Ming Ferry, there is a large ship moored, which is thirty feet long, with masts like a forest and sails like shadows.

"Brother Qingyuan, Miss Caining, you are here!"

On the boat, a tall and dignified young man in black smiled and waved, "Quickly get on the boat and talk. It will be time for tea before we set off."

Fu Qingyuan, a young man in white robe, smiled and hugged his fists, and boarded the building ship together with Su Yi and Gu Caining.

"Brother Qingyuan, who is this?"

The young man in black looked at Su Yi and asked with a smile.

Fu Qingyuan smiled and said: "A friend I made on the road was going to Yujing City just like us, so we came together."

As he spoke, he introduced Su Yi: "This is Yan Wenfu, the core successor of Kongtong Academy. He is a man of the younger generation. He is only nineteen years old and has already entered the realm of a master. He is highly valued by Kongtong Academy. .”

The young man in black smiled reservedly and said: "Brother Qingyuan, come with me. There are many comrades like us who are going to participate in the 'Autumn Martial Arts Examination' on this building ship. We will wait for you later." Let me introduce you to him."

With that said, he should lead the way towards the top of the building boat.

This building boat has three floors. The uppermost floor is built with a palace and a jade platform with cornices and brackets. You can have a panoramic view of the Qinglan River by leaning on the railing.

At this time, there were already more than ten young men and women sitting in a palace, drinking and talking, and the atmosphere was lively.

When Yan Wenfu arrived with Su Yi and the others, they also attracted a lot of attention.

Sitting at the top was a young man wearing a feather crown, a bright yellow jade robe, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He invited them to take their seats one by one with a smile.

However, there are not many seats in the palace, and only the seats near the palace gate are left, which is slightly remote.

In response, Yan Wenfu apologized slightly and said in a low voice: "Brother Qingyuan, we are a little late, so let's make do with it." Fu Qingyuan smiled and nodded.

Naturally, Su Yi didn't care. He just happened to be in the right situation and could just take things as they came.

Immediately, the group sat down.

"Sir, the person sitting at the top is named Wen Yuchong. He is the number one young person in the Luyang Academy. He is extremely famous. He is only over 20 years old and already has the third level of cultivation. It is said that His Majesty has agreed that as long as Wen Yuchong ranked among the top three in this 'Autumn War Competition', so he was conferred the title of vassal on his side!"

Gu Caining whispered, with a hint of admiration in her voice.

She was talking about the young man wearing a feather crown, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, who initiated this banquet.

The young men and women present here showed more or less a hint of respect when talking to Wen Yuchong.

Su Yi hummed, picked up the flask and drank by himself. He occasionally looked outside the palace and saw the vast river in the distance. The sky was green and green, like a splashed ink scroll, which was pleasing to the eye.

"By the way, what is this Qiuwei martial arts competition?"

Su Yi asked after drinking a glass of wine.

Gu Caining was startled for a moment, with a strange look in her eyes, "I'm a little doubtful whether you are a young man like us. You don't even pay attention to the news about the Qiuwei Wushu Competition..."

Saying that, she still patiently told the story of Qiu Wei's martial arts competition.

It turns out that every three years on the first day of August, the Great Zhou Dynasty will hold an autumn martial arts competition to select the top figures among the younger generation of warriors.

By then, disciples from the top ten universities in the world, as well as outstanding young people from the six major states, will all participate.

If you can rank among the top fifty in the Qiu Wei Martial Arts Competition, you will be rewarded and canonized by the Zhou court.

Those who rank among the top ten will have a better chance of serving in the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The top three, No. 1 in Wu, No. 2, and No. 3 overall, are undoubtedly the most outstanding.

Not only will you have the opportunity to be received and canonized by the current Zhou Emperor, but you will also be able to enter the Qianlong Sword Sect to practice!

The men and women sitting in this hall come from all over the Zhou Dynasty, and they are all the best of the younger generation. They are going to Yujing City to participate in this autumn martial arts competition.

After understanding this, Su Yi couldn't help but wonder: "It's only April 15th, and August is still some time away. Why do we have to go so early?"

After hearing this, Gu Caining finally determined that this handsome guy really didn't know the rules of the Qiuwei martial arts competition.

After thinking about it, she said: "If you want to participate in the Qiuwei Martial Arts Competition, you still need to go through repeated screening and assessments. In the end, only 300 people can participate. Such assessments will begin in the middle of next month and will continue. It will last until the first day of August.”

Su Yi suddenly realized.

At this moment, a sneer came from the seat on one side: "Interesting, I don't even know about the Qiuwei martial arts competition, but I am attending this hall. Is this friend just here to eat and drink?"

The speaker was a tall, thin young man wearing a sapphire blue gown. He was playing with a wine glass with a mocking look on his face.

Obviously, he heard the conversation between Su Yi and Gu Caining just now.

Su Yi ignored it, while Gu Caining frowned and said, "Wei Xian, it's none of your business when we talk. You'd better be more respectful."

The young man in blue shirt named Wei Xian curled his lips and said: "How can I be disrespectful? I just didn't expect that there would be such an ignorant and ignorant person in this world. Who among ordinary warriors doesn't know about the Qiu Wei Martial Arts Competition?"

After saying that, he shook his head, as if he was too lazy to care anymore.

Gu Caining was a little unhappy, but she couldn't refute.

The "Autumn Martial Arts Competition" in the Great Zhou Dynasty is definitely a grand event of the highest caliber in the world. As a warrior, but he doesn't know about this, it does seem very unusual.

Su Yi smiled, raised his wine glass, and said to Gu Caining: "I borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha and give a toast to the girl. Thank you for your help on the way."

Gu Caining smiled happily and raised a glass to drink with him.

On the other side, Yan Wenfu, a young man in black, lowered his voice and asked: "Brother Qingyuan, who is the young man who came with you? Why doesn't he even know about the Qiuwei martial arts competition?"

Fu Qingyuan smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Brother Yan, don't mind. Well... just treat that young master as a passerby."

He couldn't explain anything.

"Passers-by..."

Yan Wenfu smiled and immediately stopped paying attention to Su Yi.

Not long after, the building boat set off, sailing upstream along the mighty Qinglan River. It was about sixty miles away from Yujing City.

However, due to the turbulent water flow of the Qinglan River and the upstream flow, it takes two hours to reach the place by boat.

In the palace, Wei Xian, who was wearing a sapphire blue gown, suddenly coughed dryly and said, "Have you heard about the battle a few days ago when Su Yi's sword killed the land immortal?"

Immediately, everyone in the hall was attracted.

Even Wen Yuchong, who was sitting at the top, also smiled and said: "This battle caused a sensation in the world and made a fuss. Who hasn't heard of it?"

Someone sighed: "Speaking of this Su Yi, he is really a terrifying existence that is unimaginable. It is said... that he is only seventeen years old this year..."

Everyone's mood was ups and downs.

When talking about Su Yi, even Gu Caining, Fu Qingyuan, and Yan Wenfu all showed different expressions.

Only Su Yi sat there, as calm as ever.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "Brother Wei Xian is from Gongzhou, has he ever seen this Su Yi?"

Wei Xian, who had previously ridiculed Su Yi for being ignorant, now sat upright, cleared his throat, and said, "To be honest with you, Wei was indeed fortunate enough to have witnessed the grace of Mr. Su."

There was a hint of admiration between his eyebrows.

These words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

"Oh, tell me quickly."

Wen Yuchong, who was sitting at the top, said with interest.

Gu Caining couldn't help but prick up her ears.

Even Su Yi was stunned. Has this guy seen him before?

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Wei Xian seemed to feel extremely satisfied, and he immediately said with emotion:

"I still remember that it was at the tea party at Xishan Mountain in Gunzhou. My father and I stood at the foot of Xishan Mountain. I saw Su Yi and His Highness the Sixth Prince climbing to the top of Xishan Mountain together..."

He talked eloquently, foaming at the mouth, and described the battle at the Xishan Tea Party, which made everyone's hearts surge with excitement and wonder.

Only Su Yi had a strange look in his eyes.

If this guy was at the foot of the Western Mountain, how could he possibly see the battle at the tea party?

There is no doubt that this guy is bragging.

"Alas, it's a pity that it was too far away at the time, so I only had a rough look at it. I couldn't personally participate in it. It's really a pity."

At the end of the sentence, Wei Xian let out a long sigh.

After all, Gu Caining couldn't hold it back and asked, "Wei Xian, tell me what Su Yi looks like. Is it as scary as the rumors say?"

"Surface, why do you women always care about a man's appearance?"

Wei Xian glanced at Gu Caining and said righteously, "As a warrior, what we should be more concerned about is not how Su Yi became powerful?"

Gu Caining was scolded and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, feeling ashamed inside.
