The last time he said it: Early in the morning, Jiang Feng and the would exchange pointers on martial arts, and in an instant, they were evenly matched.

Jiang Feng used all his strength to pull the back of the spear with his right hand and bounced off the Fire Qilin Sword. When Gui Cenji saw that Jiang Feng was about to turn his back on him and use "Flaming Cloud", the Fire Qilin Sword was suddenly surrounded by flames and pierced downwards from the right side. Although Jiang Feng had his back facing Gui Cenji, the silver spear in his hand did not stop. Holding the spear head with his left hand, he swung it with his right hand and immediately changing the trajectory of the spear. This move was the 'Throat Locking Spear'. The reason why his back was facing the enemy earlier was because he wanted the latter to lower his guard. After which, he swiftly unleashed a terrifying killing move that pierced towards the opponent's throat. Gui Cenji shouted: "Good move, too bad it still can't hurt me." He tilted his body and used his left foot to follow along with the kick to the silver spear tip. The sword in his right hand did not stop as it continued to stab towards Jiang Feng's left shoulder. Jiang Feng originally thought that by using this move, he would be able to subdue his opponent in one move, but now, not only did his opponent break his technique, he was also at a disadvantage. Jiang Feng's body was nimble, in that moment of life and death, he was actually able to spin, the Fire Qilin Sword had almost sliced off his clothes. When Jiang Feng heard the sound of a sword slashing past, he immediately retracted his spear to block and retracted his spear. Gui Cenji waved his sword and pointed the spear tip towards the sky. Gui Cenji saw that Jiang Feng's entire body had exposed an opening, and used "Shadow Enter Puqiang" to stab towards his chest. Jiang Feng held the spear in both hands and tried to suppress the spear shaft with all his might. Out of the corner of his eyes, Gui Cenji saw that the sword was in front of him, and his right foot was tiptoeing slightly to the left. When the silver spear hit the ground, Gui Cenji quickly caught up and used the Fire Qilin Sword to push the spear downwards, causing the sharp blade to drag horizontally along the spear shaft. Seeing that the blade of the sword was about to injure his hands, Jiang Feng jumped with a "Swallow Turning over" step, lifting his silver spear up high, and finally blocked it. Gui Cenji's movements were not excessive at all. He leaped, moved behind Jiang Feng, and thrusted again. Jiang Feng quickly retreated, who knew that his sword moves were faster. Jiang Feng pulled back his silver spear, stabilising his spear's head, he used "Spiral Shooting" to collide with Gui Cenji's "Fire Beacon Sky". Although Jiang Feng blocked it, his own body was pushed back three steps.

Taking advantage of the moment when Jiang Feng wasn't stable yet, Gui Cenji instantly took a half squat and spun, then suddenly appeared in front of him. Jiang Feng's body of the spear was behind him now, and he was unable to pull back his defence in time, causing him to be extremely shocked. A countermeasure flashed through Jiang Feng's mind. He struck the spear shaft onto the ground with all his might, and his body got hit by the counterforce as he flew forward, dodging the sword. Jiang Feng unleashed "Spinning Spear" from the air. Although this attack could not injure Gui Cenji, it could still seal his movements, allowing him to stand firm on the ground for the moment. Who would have thought that instead of holding a sword with his left hand, Gui Cenji would hold onto the rotating spear shaft with such force that he almost slipped and fell on the ground. Gui Cenji suddenly retreated, as he lost all resistance, his body fiercely retreated a few steps. Gui Cenji seized the chance and thrusted his sword towards his face. Jiang Feng's eyes widened as he hurriedly activated his right index and middle finger. When the sword came, he dangerously caught it, the tip of the sword only an inch away from his face. Gui Cenji was shocked, and thought: This brat really has some skills. He nodded his head slightly, signalling for the competition to end here. He said: "Alright, let's end here today. You won't be able to win against me, nor will I be able to win against you. Brother Chiang Feng, your spear skills are truly admirable, in all these years, I have never seen such a good spear wielding man, haha! " Jiang Feng withdrew his right hand, looked at his two fingers carefully, and let out a long breath, as he said respectfully: "No, Sect Leader Gui, I have lost. If you had released that sword qi just now, I'm afraid my fingers would not have survived. " Gui Cenji quietly put his beloved Fire Qilin Sword back in its scabbard and said indifferently: "Heh, is your spear skill really only at this level? How could the Master s of the Virtuous Talent Gathering Hall of Capital only have this kind of strength when they were ranked first in the Martial-arts Circles of Central Plains Great Assembly? Jiang Feng cupped his fists and bowed, he truly admired his demeanor.

Su Wanling stepped forward to receive her husband's treasured sword, while Xiao Muyu walked to Jiang Feng's side with a smile and said: "Chiang Feng, I never thought that you would be so amazing, to be able to exchange so many moves with the Sect Leader Gui. Jiang Feng wiped the sweat on his forehead and said helplessly: "Indeed, to be able to receive so many moves from Sect Leader Gui, I am also very happy." Xiao Muyu pulled Jiang Feng and said: "Alright, since the competition is over, let's go eat breakfast together." Jiang Feng scratched the back of his head and asked: "Are you familiar with this place?" Xiao Muyu looked at him, and could not help but smile: "Before I came, Mrs Gui had already brought me to the place where we eat. Jiang Feng said: "Oh, so that's how it is. Good, let's leave quickly. The battle just now really consumed too much of my stamina." Xiao Muyu clapped her hands, and laughed: "It's good to be like this now, after you drink my porridge, you will definitely feel refreshed." Hearing that, Jiang Feng's eyes became serious, and he exclaimed: "Lady Xiao, you actually cooked here personally?" Xiao Muyu suddenly nodded his head and replied: "En, of course, Sect Leader Gui and Mrs Gui are so warm-hearted, I naturally have to make good porridge for them to taste." Jiang Feng followed her and ran towards the dining hall. specially made medicinal porridge, adding in a little bit of medicinal herbs, it was a reasonable combination, it allowed a person's energy to quickly recover after eating it, and their spirit to become full. During the time Jiang Feng was recuperating, it was all thanks to Xiao Muyu's medicinal porridge that allowed her body to recover so quickly.

Seeing the two of them running away, Gui Cenji instructed: "Li'er, you don't have to stay here, go quickly." Wu Li was very happy and followed after him after bowing. Su Wanling sat on the pillar beside his husband and intentionally said: "Big Brother Cenji, your movement technique was surprisingly slow just now! Brother Chiang Feng is truly powerful, I thought that you would take his fight seriously. " He held out a cup of tea to her husband, Gui Cenji smiled at his wife and said while drinking: "Young people should be afraid of him, his strength is already so powerful now, who knows how far he will grow in a few years. "Although I did not go all out this time, I have at least used sixty to seventy percent of my power. I was not able to get anything good from him. This young man is really scary!" Su Wanling placed both hands on Gui Cenji's left hand and said: "Do you still remember? Back then, my father had said the same thing. That year, he had thought highly of Gui Cenji, his disciple, and Gui Cenji had not disappointed his master. His swordsmanship surpassed others, and in the end, not only did he marry his daughter, he had even successfully taken over the Qian Sect and become the overlord of one side of the pass. Gui Cenji smiled and shook his head, saying, "The reason I am able to achieve my current accomplishments is all thanks to Lord Yuechan. As for this brother Chiang Feng, for him to become a at such a young age, there was no need to mention how strong he was. "I admire him even more for his courage to dare compete against someone stronger than himself." Su Wanling held her husband's shoulders tight so that he could relax and said: "That's why you went easy on him?" Gui Cenji put down the teacup and enjoyed himself, then said: "It's not necessarily so, the ultimate moves of the spear are mainly to kill the enemy. That is to say, in order to maximize the power of the spear, one must have the goal of killing the enemy. When Brother Chiang Feng sparred with me earlier on, he clearly didn't use all of his killing moves. This weakened his strength slightly, which was why he couldn't defeat me. But his last move, the interception, is another unique skill that I have never seen before, and it is extremely powerful! " He took his wife's hand and made her sit beside him. Su Wanling looked at her husband and said, "After your personal test just now, who do you think is stronger when compared to the stars?" Gui Cenji frowned slightly. After thinking deeply for a while, he whispered into the ears of the Madam. Su Wanling laughed, and said: "I think so! Oh yeah, Brother Cenji, seeing this little brother who uses a spear, do you remember that time twenty years ago, when your Four Sects Martial Arts Competition was at the semifinals, that person's spear skills were extremely powerful. His moves are fierce and varied, and it's quite difficult for you to defend against them. " Gui Cenji leaned on the wooden fence, and said slowly: "That's right, at that time, for the honor of our sect, and even more so for repaying master's great kindness, I did my best, and swore to be the leader. However, even if I met him in the semi-finals, I would barely be able to fight him to a draw. I was known for my speed, and as time went by, I knew that he was prepared to defeat me when I was exhausted. However, he gave up on his own initiative in such a good situation and left. Until today, it was really hard for me to understand. " Su Wanling also seemed to have thought of something and recalled: "That person was indeed strange, and after he forfeited that Martial Meeting, he disappeared from the borders of the Forbidden City. There was no further news of him, no one saw him again, and we do not know whether he is dead or alive." Gui Cenji thought back to that period of time and sighed, "Even the seniors and juniors of his sect don't know where he went. Therefore, I miss it very much that I was able to fight head-on against an expert spear wielder today. "That's right, Ling'er. Do you still remember that person's name?" Su Wanling tried her best to recall, and after a moment, said: "I think it's surname is Fan, and his name is Yi Yang." Gui Cenji softly repeated: "Fann Yiyang, that's right, it's precisely him, if he's still alive, I really hope to fight with him once more." Gradually, the two of them stopped talking and immersed themselves in their memories …

What about later?

And then we'll see how it breaks down in the next round.
