Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 78 Four Contestants
The two fell silent, then simultaneously turned their gazes towards the competition going on nearby.

Lu Ping commented: "This competition is quite interesting, but there are not many people who sign up to participate."

Hua Wu Que nodded and continued, "I just asked the person in charge of the competition, and he said that there are already four people, and the competition can start directly as long as one more person comes."

"If you miss this time, I don't know how long you will have to wait for the next one."

"You think you want to join?"

"That's true. I heard from others that if you win the game and get the 'voucher', you can't directly exchange it for money at the inn, but you can sell it to other guests."

Hua Wu Que did not deny it: "This is the way I can make the most money in the shortest time, but as you can see, I don't even have the money to participate in the competition."

"Lend it to someone."

"That's what I was thinking about. Before, I was just thinking about who to borrow money from. After all, I didn't know him and it was hard for him to believe that I could win the game. But now I know who to borrow money from."

Lu Ping raised his eyebrows: "The person you are talking about is not me, right?"

Hua Wu Que smiled faintly: "Who else could it be if not you?"

"Are you so sure that I will lend you money?"

"I'm not sure. I just think that since you don't plan to continue hiding and following behind me, but choose to come out at this time, it must be to lend me money so that I can go to the competition."

This kid is quite smart.

"Let me make this clear. I'll lend you the money to sign up for this game. If you win, the coupons will be mine, but I can treat you to a meal. If you lose..."

Hua Wu Que immediately responded, "Then I will definitely return the three taels of silver to you when I have more money!"

He is so honest, I am crying...

"That's not necessary!" Lu Ping laughed.

Just when Hua Wu Que was relieved, Lu Ping changed the subject: "If you lose, I will go ask your two masters for it!"

Hua Wuque's expression changed instantly.

In his heart, no matter what other conditions Lu Ping proposed, he could accept them calmly, but running to Yao Yue Lianxing to collect the debt really made him feel uneasy.

Just imagine, a well-behaved boy who was brought up at home to be obedient not only lost his money when he went out, but also had his parents come to him to collect the debt. This kind of thing... is simply unimaginable.

Even if the debt is only three cents of silver.

"How about changing one? It's really... unnecessary to bother my master for just three cents of silver?"

When saying this, Hua Wuque's voice was trembling.

Lu Ping laughed on the spot: "Why? You don't have confidence in your own abilities?"

No confidence? Not really.

Hua Wu Que asked himself, although the capital is full of experts, his own strength is not bad either. There are five people in the 'steamed bun grabbing competition', and there are only four of them besides himself. The probability of meeting someone stronger than himself is not high, so his luck should not be that bad.

But with Lu Ping's threat of "telling the parents" in front of him, he always felt uneasy.

"Go ahead with confidence!"

Lu Ping patted Hua Wu Que on the shoulder and said, "This is a good opportunity for me to see how much stronger you are than Xiao Yu Er."

The destined opponent is undoubtedly the best catalyst to enhance the fighting spirit.

As soon as he said this, Hua Wu Que's eyes suddenly became firm: "Then I'll ask you to help me sign up!"

Men are indeed creatures who cannot withstand provocation!

Then the two of them went to the registration office and helped Hua Wuque register.

Now that five people had gathered, the manager waved to a few waiters to bring the other four over. However, when the four people arrived, Lu Ping was stunned on the spot.

"Brother Zhang, we are really destined to be together..."

One of the other four people who took part in the competition was none other than Zhang Wuji, who came to the capital with him.

Zhang Wuji's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Ping: "Could Brother Wang be the last one?"

"Brother Wang?" Hua Wuque looked at Lu Ping in surprise.

Lu Ping was silent for a few seconds: "...Well, I'm sorry, Brother Zhang, I lied to you. 'Wang Wu' is indeed a pseudonym. From now on, just call me Qi Lu Ren." I thought Zhang Wuji would feel uncomfortable after hearing this, but he just laughed: "I see, but it's common to use a pseudonym when traveling in the martial arts world. Brother Wang, don't feel sorry."

In fact, the name Qi Lu Ren is obviously a pseudonym, and it is even more difficult to pronounce, so Zhang Wuji did not change it and still called Lu Ping "Brother Wang".

"That's good, but the last person to participate in the competition is not me, but the person next to me."

"I am a disciple of Yihua Palace, Hua Wuque."

"Wudang Zhang Wuji."

Both of them have received a good quality education. After looking at each other and clasping their fists, they saw the appreciation in each other's eyes.

Zhang Wuji, Hua Wuque...

Lu Ping stared at one with wide eyes, then turned to look at the other, and felt that apart from their height and body shape, the two people were surprisingly similar in name, appearance, expression, and temperament.

If I didn't know that Hua Wuque was the child of Jiang Feng and Hua Yuenu, and that he and Xiao Yuer were twin brothers, I would almost have thought that the two people in front of me were real brothers.

In fact, Zhang Wuji and Hua Wuque also had this feeling in their hearts.

But there is a 6-year age difference between the two. Regardless of what Hua Wuque would think, Zhang Wuji already had memories when he was 6 years old, so he clearly remembered that his parents did not have a second child that year.

"Brother Zhang, the sisters from Emei are not with you?"

Zhang Wuji shook his head: "They have other important things to do. I came out alone."

Disappointed!

One of the four contestants is Zhang Wuji, and the rest are surprisingly not simple either.

"Linghu Chong?"

"Little brother, what a coincidence, we meet again!"

One of the remaining three was Linghu Chong, whom he had met yesterday.

"How did you get together?"

Linghu Chong laughed and explained, "We just happened to meet on the road, and then we walked here together. We saw this competition and just happened to be interested, so we signed up to play together."

Lu Ping nodded and also looked behind him: "Where are the other senior sisters from Taihua? Aren't they with you?"

"They don't like this kind of game, so they went somewhere else."

Ok...disappointed +1
Lu Ping then turned his gaze to the remaining two men. One of them was an ordinary, thin young man who looked like a local, while the other one looked somewhat familiar.

The man had a frivolous look and peach-colored eyes. His overall face could be considered handsome. He looked to be about twenty years old, with long black hair. He was wearing a very simple blue-black suit and a long sword with a blue sheath on his waist.

Not a simple person!
"What do you call this friend?"

"Okay, this is the future number one swordsman in the martial arts world, the genius swordsman, Jian Wuji!"

Lu Ping: “…”

Although he already knew that there were Shi Yanwen, Xinghuajun and Wangmingshui in this world, it was the first time he saw characters from the Jinguan Puppet Show.

With such arrogant words, such frivolous tone, this name and this attire, the person in front of him is undoubtedly the former popular king of Jinguan, Jian Wuji.

Look at it, it’s actually the same version!

Of the five contestants, four were good fighters of the younger generation in the martial arts world, and the last one turned pale with fear: "No... heroes, I am just an ordinary person. You all have such great backgrounds, how can I be embarrassed?"

Lu Ping smacked his lips and suddenly walked to the last contestant. He stared at him carefully for a few seconds, confirming that this man had no internal strength and no signs of martial arts training. He felt sorry for him for a second.

"Come on, old man!"

Lu Ping patted the other person's shoulder, comforted him and was about to turn around and leave, but was pulled back by the man: "This... this young man, I see you seem to be quite familiar with them, you should also know martial arts, right? How about you take my place in this match?"

"Oh? Are you serious?" Lu Ping stopped and looked at the poor man with shining eyes.

"Of course!"

The man had a sad face: "I just have a little more strength than ordinary people, and I have never practiced martial arts; but these four are either from big sects or some kind of genius swordsmen. Even if I go up to them, I will just get beaten..."
