The World of Sound - Chapter 73
Only Krnovel
The next move after Cheonhwa’s Bimu was the Bimu of Shaman’s Hyeonryong and the later Jisoo of Sadoyeon, known as the strongest among the four factions.
The shaman was a member of the Gupa Ilbang, but it was also considered the highest level of Taoism, so it was practically a battle between the top two factions of the Jeongpa and the Seoppa.
In fact, it feels like a proxy war between the government and the opposition parties?
That’s why there was a lot of interest, but in the match prediction, the shaman’s victory was predicted to be around 70%.
After all, it was a prestigious sect with a long history, and Hyeonryong’s martial arts skills were already known to be excellent, and the unique energy of the sect also played a part.
Because the harsh energy of Sapa can be said to be in conflict with the purity of Taoism.
If we are to compare it to Shaolin’s magical martial arts, it could be said to be the worst match, but the mysteriousness of Taoism is also not bad.
It is known that the power of the energy called Tao Samcheongryuk has the power of Pasapama, so the question is how far Hyunryong has mastered it, but if he has at least an equal level of martial arts, it is only natural that Hyunryong will have the upper hand.
“I lost.”
However, the result was a victory for Chuwolmyeong.
As everyone had expected and hoped, Hyunryong’s martial arts skills were outstanding enough to reach the peak, and above all, he made good use of the advantages of Taoist qigong to put pressure on the early stages, but it was quite simply that Chuwolmyeong was superior.
Although his internal energy was not as strong as I had thought, the difference in skill was stark.
The climax.
Chuwolmyeong has also broken through the barrier of transcendence.
Whether it was because he was stimulated by Cheonhwa’s inaction or because he wanted to complete the remaining two rounds in perfect condition, he initially focused on withstanding Hyunryong’s attacks, but at the last moment, he pulled out his sword and proved his inaction.
To everyone’s astonishment, he broke Hyeonryong’s Songmun Sword.
It is commendable that he was able to avoid fatal damage by defending himself with the Taegeuk technique even against a strike that was beyond his level, but that was the end of it.
The shaman’s magical weapon, which could be called a famous sword, was broken, and although her life was saved, her will to fight was broken.
If this was a real fight, I would have rushed in even with a broken sword, but even so, all that would have resulted would have been death.
That is why Hyunryong meekly admitted defeat.
That was when everyone was shocked.
A power that even suppresses superiority in compatibility.
Although he only showed his sword skills as a last resort, the fear of Chuwolmyeong could not help but grow because of that.
Because I didn’t feel like I was using up all my strength.
Because he possessed strength that could not yet be measured, he was shocked and wondered if he too had reached a state of perfection and peak maturity like Cheonhwa.
At least as far as is known, no one among the later indices of the political party has reached that level.
“Yeah. You have to show that much. That way, the dividend will go up a bit.”
In the seething silence where only the Saphas cheered, only Cheonhwa among the later indices laughed.
Because I already knew that he had reached his peak.
However, if he had hidden it until the end, most people would have bet on him in predicting the outcome, and the odds would have been lowered. But if he had shown even this much, it would have been a different story.
Regardless of the objective difference in power, there are plenty of people here who believe in Sapa and want to support them, even if it’s just emotionally.
Thanks to that, I was able to smile broadly because I thought I might be able to receive a fairly sweet dividend.
“Wow!!!”
“This is the best!!”
“What’s so special about the old file room? Now, it’s the world of Sapha!”
What followed was a duel between the later indices of Sapa.
Since the Jungpa’s late index rose to 4th place or 8th place, many people expected a showdown between the Jungpa and Sapa if possible, but since it had to happen according to the bracket, it was an inevitable result.
However, there were some questions about the bracket.
I don’t know who made the matchup, but in Cheonhwa’s objective judgment, it seems like there was some intention behind the matchup.
Because the group I was in had relatively many Sapha people.
Moreover, it felt like even among the later indices of the Jeongpa faction, those who were considered to have the strongest power among those belonging to the Yongbongjihoe faction were organized into the opposing group.
Does it feel like you’ve set the table for someone?
Of course, that doesn’t mean there aren’t people in this group who have the nickname of Yong, and there are the likes of Hyeonryong and Sadolyeon, so it’s not like there are only weak players, but it’s a matchup where you can save your strength relatively, build up your wins, and then challenge for the championship by beating Hyeonryong or Sapa’s best talent, Chuwolmyeong.
It was probably Namgung’s doing, but honestly, it was uncertain whether he would have achieved his goal even if it hadn’t been for Cheonhwa himself.
Chuwolmyeong’s martial arts skills were better than expected, and Bukgungyeon was in the opposing group.
Also, the Sapa’s later indices that are currently waging war are not easy going.
Although he did not reach the pinnacle, he possessed outstanding skills that could be said to be on the edge of a pinnacle, and his power was by no means inferior to that of Yongbong.
Rather, if it weren’t for Bukgungyeon, it was outstanding enough to predict victory against anyone, so even though it was less shocking than the previous two, it was more than enough to raise the morale of the Sapha people.
Although it is a bit lacking in numbers, Sapa also has such a great record, so there is an expectation that in the next generation, Sapa’s power may even surpass that of the Jeongpa.
Of course, in order to do that, Chuwolmyeong must first defeat Cheonhwa and win the championship.
“I will be taught, sir.”
However, before they could even reach Cheonhwa, the Sapa people’s mouths were broken in the next match and the last match of the quarterfinals.
The martial arts of Shaolin’s Divine Dragon and Bingbong’s Bukgungyeon.
This is because a powerful energy surged from the body of the Shaolin Dragon, who was paying respect with his hands clasped together.
“Ugh.”
“iced coffee…….”
The Wheel of Dharma of the Light.
As soon as they were exposed to the boundlessly warm and compassionate Dharma power, the Sapha people who had a strong aura staggered at once.
On the other hand, the pure qigong practitioners had very relaxed expressions.
Just by being exposed to that energy, I felt as if my energy and blood were stabilizing and my internal energy was becoming more purified, so I could only express my admiration for the mystery of Shaolin once again.
Besides, if they were masters of the highest level, he could tell even without them having to pull out their powers.
The realm of the divine dragon has reached its peak.
As expected from Shaolin, the North Star of the martial arts world and the light of the orthodox school, it possesses power and purity that cannot be compared to other dragons and phoenixes.
“I guess it’s Shaolin… … .”
“Even for the Grand Duke of the Sado League, this won’t be easy.”
In that case, even if it was a title, it would be difficult to guarantee victory.
As expected, Shaolin. The Sapa people’s expressions hardened as if they were up close to an insurmountable wall, and so did Chuwolmyeong, who was watching from below the stage.
As the greatest disciple of the Sasang Association and the largest organization of the Sasang Association, he was confident that he had no equal among the later disciples and that he would eventually become the best in the world. But Shaolin was indeed Shaolin.
It wasn’t that painful to be exposed to the magical energy, but I watched him with a heavy expression as if I had acquired a big homework assignment.
“Haam. I hope you don’t drag it out.”
Among them, only one person.
Cheonhwa saw this rain differently.
Everyone was surprised by Shenlong’s martial arts and naturally predicted that he would win, and they hoped that Bukgungyeon would meekly admit defeat in order to defeat Chuwolmyeong, but they were confident in Bukgungyeon’s victory, with a relaxed expression that was enough to yawn lazily.
I even thought that if she wasn’t careful, she could subdue the dragon pretty easily.
“I will do my best, but I am still inexperienced in handling power, so please be careful.”
Objectively, the dragon’s martial arts skills are outstanding.
It was funny to say that he was great at something compared to a master of the highest level, but it was the same when compared to Bukgungyeon.
If he had stuck to it normally, he could be said to be a possessor of considerable skill, to the point that even Bukgungyeon would have a hard time taking him lightly.
However, she was better now than when Cheonhwa restored her ice spirit body.
While fighting against Margin, she had gained a lot of freedom in controlling her power, but more than anything, she now had a sword in her hands that could increase her power to its limit.
Sling-
Tsk tsk tsk tsk-!!
As soon as you pull the Ice Spirit out of its scabbard, the surrounding area freezes.
It’s not that he’s not able to properly control his energy like before and just keeps leaking out, but his mere presence is enough to affect the surroundings.
Ice spirit.
The peerless sword created by Cheonhwa fell into her hands last night.
Maga Cheol Bang Ju was also invited to the martial arts competition, but that was also the reason he never showed up.
A person like Maga Cheol Bangju would naturally be invited to the martial arts competition and would be considered a VIP, but the reason he was not seen was because he delayed his arrival and completed the scabbard of the Ice Soul.
He arrived on the 7th day of the ten-day martial arts competition and handed over the Ice Spirit and Ice Soul to Cheonhwa, who then gave them to Bukgungyeon.
Of course, it wasn’t just given, it was lent.
Because if we were to put a price on it, it was a treasure that could not be valued.
Even though it was a guy with such a thick iceberg that it would be difficult to even hold it properly if it weren’t for her, it was a bit of a waste to sell it because there would be people lining up to buy it even if it meant paying a thousand dollars. However, I decided that if this would help her grow further, then it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Because I can get a fair price by adding the rental fee for the Bingryong and Bingshon to the Boeun Pae.
And that was the first time it appeared in the martial arts world.
It revealed its presence with a bitter cold that froze not only the surrounding area but the entire non-stage area.
“What, what is this?!”
“It’s cold, it’s cold!”
“I feel cold… …?”
At the same time, the thoughts of all those who had taken the victory of the dragon for granted changed.
Because it was impossible to tell whether this incredible cold energy was simply coming from the sword or from Bukgungyeon’s own power.
Even the best players, who are usually insensitive to cold and heat, were complaining of the cold by covering their bodies, so it is impossible to imagine how severe the undisclosed energy is.
“Amitabha… … is the blessing of the martial arts world.”
Meanwhile, the dragon that should have turned into a block of ice still maintained its posture while emitting a soft glow.
The cold air emitted by the Ice Spirit was fierce, but it was because the Neunggwang Dharma Wheel was protecting him.
However, from the beginning, he did not look down on Bukgungyeon.
It may be the temperament of a Shaolin disciple, but he already had an inkling of Bukgungyeon’s level.
“Let’s take the player.”
He talked about taking the initiative, despite his pride, as if he thought of himself as a lower class person, and Bukgungyeon just nodded silently.
This was her first time handling the ice spirit properly, so she was concentrating on controlling its power.
“Iljiseon.”
At that moment, the dragon who had been crouching while stepping on the magic wand stretched his fist forward.
With your index finger straight.
Jiying-
Cheeeeek!!
An internal energy stream containing the energy of the extreme north extends out.
A powerful force that could melt the ice spirits that filled the stage was shot out as if it was going to pierce through Bukgungyeon.
It was a move that was not befitting of a disciple of Shaolin and was close to murder, but the moment Bukgungyeon lifted the scabbard, the heat disappeared without a trace.
Pachin!
It’s a scabbard, not a sword.
When I put the Ice Spirit Sword in there and swung it, the energy that seemed like it could melt and pierce through rocks quickly dispersed.
“I’ll go this time.”
Bukgungyeon, who had been defending Iljiseon as if it were a given, stepped on the sword, and before the distance could be closed, Shinryong pulled his outstretched fist back to his waist.
A series of consecutive hits.
“The Hundred Steps Divine Right.”
Pavababababang!!
If the realm is shallow, it can only send out a strong wind, but if someone who has reached the realm uses it, it can contain a strong wind and even more power, and this is the Baekboshin Kwon that was poured out to stop her.
“The wind and the clouds”
However, he was also easily blocked by the scabbard, Ice Soul.
Without stopping his steps, he simply swung his unfamiliar left hand and smashed the Hundred Steps Fist, one of Shaolin’s proud moves.
To be exact, the ice spirits that were emitted from the scabbard scattered like sandstorms and canceled out the energies of the Baekboshin Kwon.
“Homawolyeong.”
“Twin dragon sea bream!”
As they collided with each other and scattered, Bukgungyeon charged in.
He cut down the dragon with a swift sword that flew faster than the cold, and the dragon also took a step forward and swung his twin fists.
Rather than a sword, it moved in a variety of ways like a sword, dispersing its power and blocking the sword’s trajectory.
“Health?!”
“It’s Kwon Kang!!”
Wow wow wow!!
The offensive of those two already had an incredible force of power rising.
It was a power that could greatly harm each other if they made a single move, but it seemed as if they knew that this alone was not enough to harm the other, so they clashed in unison and engaged in an attack and defense.
Each time, the Ice Spirit would freeze the opponent, and the Light of Dharma Wheel would melt the cold.
It was a duel between swords and fists, but at the level of the two, the presence or absence of weapons was no longer important.
The sword and scabbard were swung naturally as if they were just an extension of the arm, and the dragon also faced the ice spirits and ice souls with all its might as if it didn’t care.
Dozens of battles continued like that.
Each movement, each breath, was a state of super-elevation containing a high level of skill. In terms of sheer strength, Bukgungyeon was overwhelming, but even Shenlong, who had mastered the martial arts of Shaolin, famous for their firmness and stability, did not give him a chance.
The important thing here is concentration.
The moment one side loses focus, they could get seriously hurt, but it is not easy for these experts to lose focus.
As the battle continued and several combinations were tested, their concentration grew stronger and their expressions brightened.
As if they had met someone they could pour everything out to for the first time, they poured out everything they had accumulated toward each other with expressions of relief and relief.
“It’s truly amazing.”
“I didn’t know that the daughter of Bukgungga would be like that.”
“I heard you were feeling unwell. Are you feeling better now?”
“Hehehe. Maybe that kid will lead the next generation.”
“Get in line at Bukgung Street. Hurry up!”
Through this competition, everyone gathered here could feel that both of them had grown greatly.
Not only the most advanced martial artists could tell just how high a level of martial arts this was, but even those who knew nothing about martial arts were completely captivated by the breathtaking spectacle.
“Huh? That might be a bit dangerous.”
When the sum they shared exceeded one hundred, Cheonhwa frowned slightly.
It seemed like they were both risking everything to clash with each other, but it was clear that Bukgungyeon had the upper hand.
However, as the spell grew longer, the spirit energy began to stir within her body.
Ice spirit.
It was a power she could not yet control.
If you are not careful, you may end up harming the dragon that will lead Shaolin’s future by gaining power that you are not aware of.
Actually, it didn’t matter how it happened, but if you killed your opponent, you were disqualified.
This was problematic because it would ruin the plan to bring in Yuncheol by putting her in second place.
“The little one lost.”
At that moment, the dragon took a step back first, perhaps noticing the unprecedented power rising behind her.
In the process, he may have overdone it a bit and vomited a bowlful of blood, but the internal injuries were minor enough to get better after a few days of rest.
If you eat the top level of Shaolin Vision, you might be able to get rid of it faster.
“Wow!!”
“Bingbong defeated the dragon!”
“The next inspector is here!!”
In this way, the Shaolin Shenlong, a strong contender for the championship, collapsed.
Instead, the name of Bingbong Bukgungyeon was raised along with the fuss that the next prosecutor had been appointed.
The sight of him winning against the Dragon King without even breaking a sweat left a deep impression on everyone.
It was natural that she, who had the Ice Spirit Retardation, would not sweat much, but that was no longer important in people’s minds.
The quarterfinals, full of shock and upsets, were over, but the day was still long.
The quarterfinals and semifinals were held back-to-back, so the four finalists who had everyone’s throats hoarse took a short break before returning to the stage.
And the match was decided quickly.
