Chapter 472 The first battle!
When Shen Xian came on stage, he immediately attracted cheers from many people in the audience. Many of them were not just cheering because they saw injustice, but they were just out to do good things.

Some people have other ideas: Shen Xian can challenge Xin Zhen because he is not convinced. If Shen Xian wins, can I also challenge Shen Xian? If I win, can I sit in this seat?

Some people began to predict the outcome of this competition.

"This time Xin Zhen can't get away with it. Master Shen is a famous Jindan master in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area. A few years ago, when Shanyan Tower and Louwailou were competing for business, the two sides fought each other. Master Shen faced off against three Jindan masters from Louwailou alone, and he was able to win.

This means that Master Shen's cultivation is at least at the Golden Core Great Success stage, and he may have even reached the Great Perfection stage, and is only half a step away from the Nascent Soul stage. Xin Zhen is too young, and it is impossible for him to have reached the Golden Core Perfection stage. In this battle, Master Shen will definitely win!"

"That may not be the case. Although Master Shen is powerful, Xin Zhen is, after all, the founder of a school. It's hard to predict who will win!"

This person was quite mischievous and said these words in a very serious manner. As soon as he said this, the audience burst into laughter.

Everyone can see that Xin Zhen is very young, so he is certainly not a great master. As for founding a sect, that is just a fashion among young people. There is no need to verify how advanced your skills are to establish a sect. If you want to establish one, you can do so. There is no threshold. There are many children who have learned a few simple kung fu moves and got together with a few friends to say that they have founded the Qinglong Gang or the White Tiger Sect. Who takes this seriously?
After hearing the following words, Shen Xian felt very proud, but he did not dare to be careless for the sake of his reputation. After all, Xin Zhen was promoted by the Great City God Huo Guang. If he humiliated him too much, Huo Guang would certainly not forgive him. He might not be offended for the sake of his reputation, but if he attacked him privately, his Shanyan Tower could not withstand the blow of this great god.

Shen Xian and Xin Zhen politely bowed and said, "Master Xin, I am not here to target you, but these 18 chairs represent the reputation of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If there is any mistake, the elders and fellow countrymen of Jiangsu and Zhejiang will certainly not look good. Therefore, everyone nominated me to come up, which is not a test. Let's just do a warm-up show for today's Heroes Conference. What do you think, Master Xin?"

Xin Zhen looked at Shen Xian with a smile. This man was a smiling tiger. It was obvious that he was the one who had set his eyes on this position. He changed the subject and said that it was everyone who nominated him. He also deliberately suppressed the tension and said it was a program to liven up the audience. His ability to make a big thing into a small one was really amazing.

However, since Xin Zhen knew that he was here to gain fame, why should he keep a low profile? He smiled and said, "Today's Heroes Conference is not about competing for the 18th position, but about other important matters to discuss. We can't delay this matter for too long, so I can't accept challenges again and again. How about this, three matches? If no one can beat me in three matches, then how about letting the Huashan Sect take the 18th position?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar. Someone shouted, "How can that be possible? With so many sects in the audience, who would be convinced by only three matches? And, can you only hold out for three matches? If Shen Xian wins, can he take the seat directly? This is totally unreasonable!"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "I will only take care of myself. You can nominate three people. Whoever beats me can accept three challenges. If you win all, you can sit down. If one of you wins again, then you can continue to accept challenges, right?"

The powerful people on the field all frowned.

Huo Guang smiled and said, "That's great. I support it."

The Ci Ning Divine Monk of Xuedou Mountain said angrily, "Not right! Isn't this going to go on forever? I don't have the time to watch you fool around. Just take the chair away. What a mess!"

As soon as the monk Ci Ning spoke, the whole place fell silent for a moment. No one dared to speak again, even Shen Xian who was present was a little timid.

Huo Guang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Divine Monk Ci Ning, Sect Leader Xin will definitely be able to decide the outcome within three rounds."

Monk Ci Ning said nothing and simply closed his eyes.

At this time, Shen Xian said: "Since there are three matches, if I defeat Master Xin and then accept two more matches, can I also sit in this seat directly?"

Huo Guang nodded and said, "That's it. As for who gets the next two chances, I'll decide. My eyes are still useful. I can still tell who has a higher level of cultivation."

As soon as these words were spoken, no one in the audience had any objections. The Great City God opened his eyes and looked at the world. He had been in charge of Jiangsu and Zhejiang for more than a thousand years. He knew who was strong and who was weak as accurately as the Great City God.

As for whether the City God General Huo will favor Xin Zhen, it depends on who he chooses. If he is obviously weaker, everyone's eyes are not for show. At that time, Huo Guang will have to think more about it with the public's opinions.

When Shen Xian heard this, he was overjoyed and said quickly, "Okay, then we won't waste any more time. Master Xin, please go ahead."

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "Please give me your advice."

As Xin Zhen finished speaking, a crystal sword ball suddenly appeared in front of him, making a buzzing sword sound.

"Hey, it's a sword cultivator!" Someone in the audience suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Sword cultivators are not uncommon in the cultivation world, but everyone knows that sword cultivators have amazing combat power and are always more difficult to deal with than other cultivators.

When Shen Xian saw Xin Zhen's sword pill, his expression became a little solemn. Sword cultivation emphasizes inheritance. Sword cultivators without inheritance must cultivate to the Golden Core realm before they can have their own sword pill.

Sword cultivators are not that rare in the world of cultivation because they have accumulated experience over time. There are actually not that many people who have cultivated themselves to the point of condensing a golden elixir into a sword pill.

This Xin Zhen possesses a sword pill. Either his inheritance is quite powerful, or he himself is gifted. He has cultivated to the Golden Core Realm at a young age and condensed his own sword pill. No matter which one it is, it means that Xin Zhen is not easy to deal with.

Shen Xian did not dare to be careless and also released his own magic weapon, which was a multi-treasure tower.

Shanyanlou is actually a business that specializes in materials for cultivation, such as the sale of natural treasures, the sale, rental, sale, and repair of various magic weapons. Most of the things they deal with are valuable, and they will have some money on their hands. Shanyanlou has made profits from these, and has trained many masters to protect Shanyanlou over the years, and has also accumulated many magic weapons.

The exclusive magic weapon of the successive owners of Shanyan Tower is the Duobao Pagoda. It is said that tens of thousands of magic weapons are refined in it. When needed, the Duobao Pagoda can be used to release tens of thousands of magic weapons. These magic weapons can attack the opponent independently, and one person can be as good as an army.

As soon as the Multi-Treasure Pagoda appeared, it immediately caused exclamations from the people below. Someone immediately explained its origin. Xin Zhen also listened to it, and then looked at Shen Xian, thinking that no wonder one person could defeat three opponents. With tens of thousands of magic weapons, what could happen even if he faced thirty opponents?

However, this made Xin Zhen a little cautious. The world of cultivation is not like the world of martial arts. In the world of martial arts, as long as the internal strength is high enough, one can basically be immune to many things, but the world of cultivation is different. Magical weapons are a bug. Once there is a powerful magic weapon, even a cultivator of a lower level can defeat a cultivator of a higher level.

In fact, some high-level magic weapons are equivalent to a practitioner. They have spirits and are no different from humans. They can think and avoid danger and seek good fortune.

When a low-level practitioner carries a magical weapon with a spirit, it actually means that there is a high-level practitioner protecting him and helping him in fights.

Since Shen Xian is the owner of Shanyan Tower, which is so big, he must have some hidden treasures. So he must not be careless, lest he suffer a setback.

Both sides released their magic weapons, which was the signal for action. Xin Zhen stepped forward and punched forward. Shen Xian was shocked by Xin Zhen's move. You are a cultivator, and a sword cultivator at that. Why don't you use sword balls but directly use fists and feet? What's going on?
Startled, Shen Xian retreated quickly, but the Duobao Pagoda remained in front of him. However, Shen Xian did not need to care about this. The Duobao Pagoda was connected with his mind, and he could take it back with just a thought. With just a thought, all kinds of magic weapons would appear.

When Shen Xian was retreating, he had a thought and the Duobao Pagoda suddenly made a humming sound. With each hum, a magic weapon flew out. After hearing the continuous humming sound, more than ten or twenty magic weapons such as knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hatchets, hooks, forks, borings, sticks, lances, clubs, whips, maces, hammers, claws, crutches, meteors, etc. flew in the air and then all shot towards Xin Zhen.

Xin Zhen took a look at the Duobao Pagoda and thought to himself, Wow, this must be an aircraft carrier. So many weapons appeared at a random sound, and it was about to go all out. Wouldn’t half of the sky be filled with similar weapons?

Facing the eighteen kinds of weapons shooting at him, Xin Zhen remained calm. He stopped and pointed his sword. The emerald green sword ball immediately turned into thousands of streams of light and flew towards the eighteen kinds of weapons. There were clang clang clang sounds, and the eighteen kinds of weapons were bounced back into the air.

Some sharp-eyed people saw that some of the eighteen weapons had gaps, some were trembling, and some were about to lose their strength. They were immediately shocked and said, "Xin Zhen's sword balls are very powerful. Master Shen's magic weapons are not bad, but they were damaged like this by just one sword."

Xin Zhen seldom fought with others after coming to the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, so no one knew how powerful his sword pills were. But if someone knew that his sword pills could break the dragon scale defense of the dragon clan, they would certainly look at him with admiration.

The dragon scales of the dragon clan are extremely hard and are natural materials for magic weapons. When they are draped over the dragon's body, there are not many magic weapons in the world that can hurt them. But under Xin Zhen's sword ball, they are no different from ordinary flesh and blood.

Although Shen Xian’s magic weapon is very good, it cannot be compared with dragon scales.

Shen Xian felt extremely distressed when he saw that so many magic weapons were destroyed by Xin Zhen's sword. Although these magic weapons were not the best in his collection, they were also collected by him one sword at a time. Although he was the owner of Shanyan Tower, each magic weapon was not easily obtained, and the landlord's family did not have any surplus food!

Shen Xian quickly thought about it and took back all the magic weapons to the Duobao Tower for nourishment. This is also the power of the Duobao Tower. As long as the magic weapons are not completely damaged, the Duobao Tower will actively nourish them after they are taken back.

Xin Zhen chuckled upon seeing this. The owner of Shanyan Tower probably didn't have any combat experience. At this moment, he actually felt sorry for his magic weapon. Did he forget that he was still in front of him?

It takes a certain amount of time to release and store magic weapons, and when storing them, the magic weapons are not released at the same time to attack you. This is the opportunity to fight!

Xin Zhen was a veteran of many battles, so how could he miss such an opportunity? He flashed and appeared next to Shen Xian. Shen Xian was shocked when Xin Zhen got so close to him. The only thought in his mind was: why is this sword cultivator so strange? He is good at boxing and fighting at close range?
The next moment, he felt someone grabbing his neck. He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck, and then his eyes went black and he didn't know where he was.

The eyes of the powerful men on the stage all lit up. They naturally saw that Xin Zhen's methods were all those of a warrior. Elder Tu Sisheng of the Wuhou Sect, in particular, was so shocked that he almost couldn't sit still: When did such a ruthless character appear among warriors?

However, not many people in the audience could understand it. Those who could understand it were all those at the head level, and there was an uproar immediately.

"What the hell! Shen Xian is too weak. He possesses so many magic weapons, but he was grabbed by the neck all of a sudden. He doesn't even know how to keep his distance. Damn!"

"Ha, I said it before, this Shanyan Tower is nothing, it is something that cannot be put on the table, especially this Shen Xian, who looks like a master, but is actually just a fool!"

Someone recognized that this was someone from Louwailou and immediately smiled knowingly. The people from Louwailou hated Shanyanlou, so given such an opportunity, they would naturally want to step on them a few times to feel relieved.

When the people from Shanyanlou heard this, they immediately became unhappy and squeezed towards the people from Louwailou, and started punching them as soon as they got close to them. The people from Louwailou naturally didn't want to be beaten, so they fought back immediately, and suddenly hundreds of people started fighting below the stage.

Huo Guang frowned upon seeing this. The City God official Wang Chang snorted coldly. The hundreds of people who were fighting felt an extremely cold aura enveloping them. They were immediately horrified and looked towards where the coldness came from. It turned out to be the City God official. They immediately realized that they had offended the Great City God, and their hearts trembled with fear. None of the hundreds of people dared to move.

Xin Zhen put Shen Xian down and rubbed his neck. Shen Xian woke up from his coma and was startled to see Xin Zhen in front of him. Then he remembered that he had been knocked unconscious by Xin Zhen and became desperate.

Now Shanyanlou not only has no chance to make further progress, but being defeated so easily by Xin Zhen is a huge blow to Shanyanlou. Today's defeat will bring endless troubles, and many jackals and tigers that have been coveting Shanyanlou for a long time will probably pounce on it!
