The Second Chapter: Summer Country Demon, Chapter 1: The Fou

she admired her master Zhang Qing equally. 。Master Zhang Qing, the most legendary figure in the women's martial arts world!……"So she chose Jingming's team" The short and stout Tie Lianyun watched thi...Xu Jingming looked at the quiet valley in front of him, surrounded by rugged peaks. There were howls of monkeys echoing from within the mountains. 。"This is the fourth floor of the Starry Sky Tower" Xu Jingming held his spear, carefully observing all around. 。

Whoosh 。A figure on a distant mountain peak leaped into the air, drawing a giant arc before landing on a large tree in the valley. 。It stood on the thick branches of a large tree, staring at Xu Jingming. 。"Is this... a monkey" Xu Jingming was unsure. 。On the big tree stood a rather thin monkey with brown-black hair, holding a dark stick in one hand, and a cold look in its eyes, staring at Xu Jingming with hostility. 。

It certainly looked like a monkey. The reason Xu Jingming was unsure was because looking at this monkey, he felt as if he were looking into the eyes of an intelligent being. 。Its eyes, so full of spirit, unlike those of a beast, like those of a wise creature. 。Xu Jingming looked at the other person. 。"Roar!"The monkey let out a low bellow and shot out from the tree trunk with lightning speed. 。"Speed comparable to that of lightning and a thundercloud" 。“I can't compete with it in terms of speed,” Xu Jingming immediately became much more cautious. 。Dozens of meters apart, the monkeys dashed in a frenzy. In just half a second, they were already at Xu Jingming's side. 。Xu Jingming's sudden flash, a spear shot forward like lightning. 。

"Bang" 。A shadow of a stick lashed out and struck Xu Jingming's spear. Xu Jingming felt an immense heaviness, immediately turning his spear to deflect the force and preparing to strike again. 。But the stick shadow, after impact, went for a jab!

The tip of the stick aimed at Xu Jingming...

Xu Jingming instinctively swung his spear in an arc, deflecting the strike and taking a step back to dissipate the force. 。"Its strength is slightly greater than mine, but its speed is much faster." 。And it had a set of powerful staff techniques. This was the first time I'd encountered an opponent who used weapons since I entered the Starry Sky Tower. 。Xu Jingming felt pressure. 。The top three layers are the wolf, bear, and tiger. Their behavior is more animalistic, relying on their physical strength. 。

The monkeys encountered on the fourth level were not only armed but also skilled in the use of staffs. 。

"Bang Bang Bang" 。The staff is mainly used for striking, sweeping, and thrusting techniques. 。Originally, the staff was at a disadvantage compared to the spear, after all, the spear could use all the techniques that the staff could. 。Lances are far more effective at penetrating. 。But this ape, using its staff technique, was actually suppressing Xu Jingming. 。Because this monkey was too agile and quick, even though its strength was only slightly better than Xu Jingming's, its stick technique, one after another, was much faster than Xu Jingming's. This forced Xu Jingming to primarily defend. 。Bang bang bang 。Xu Jingming and the monkey moved their bodies, constantly shifting and striking. The clash of weapons echoed repeatedly, shaking the valley so that even trees were affected, snapping and breaking from the force of the impact. 。The commotion drew the attention of other monkeys in the surrounding mountains. 。Only the roars and howls of the monkey chorus could be heard, as one after another, figures of monkeys leaped from the surrounding peaks, tracing arcs through the air before landing in the valley. 。Some landed on the trees, some on the ground, but every monkey carried a dark stick. 。

Monkeys come in a variety of sizes, some lean and others quite muscular. 。And there was a reddish-haired monkey, surrounded by other monkeys, seeming to be the leader. 。The first three layers are for dealing with packs of wolves, bears, and tigers. 。"Is this also about dealing with a group" Xu Jingming had figured this out. Master Liu Hai and the others hadn't passed the fourth layer, so this time Xu Jingming was just trying it out, probing the reality of the fourth layer. He didn't mind failure. 。Although he was putting his mind into it, Xu Jingming's heart was above the fray, controlling the entire battlefield. His marksmanship was still extremely fast, one move after another, changing tactics incredibly quickly. Under the overwhelming pressure of the monkey, he managed to hold on for a full five minutes. 。"Roar" 。Among the many monkeys watching the battle, suddenly one impatient monkey holding a stick rushed out to join the fray. Its sudden attack, a blur of wood slashing through the air, struck Xu Jingming with unexpected force, greatly increasing his pressure. 。Boom boom boom!!! One after another, the shadow of the stick covered the sky and the earth!Xu Jingming barely blocked a few strikes, but was hit on the head by one stick, causing his entire body to shatter into nothingness and dissipate in the valley. 。A single monkey pressed me down, two monkeys couldn't possibly overcome 。Even as Xu Jingming vanished into nothingness, he cast one last glance at the crimson-haired ape king, "That ape king must be terrifyingly powerful." 。It's not hopeful to break through the fourth layer in the short term. 。。If other countries are very concerned about the newly emerged names on the Star Chart and frantically digging up all the information about this Xia Guo Xu Jingming, then... Xia Guo's own media has completely fallen into a frenzy. 。During the Huǒ Zhēn Cup competition, countless live streams and media outlets in Xia Guo were talking about the appearance of the world's seventh ranked player. 。

Now the competition is over! The eighth place in the world has been decided, and it's still from China! 。The level of enthusiasm within China is unimaginable. 。"Just now, just now! The eighth name appeared on the Starry Sky List, global eighth: Xu Jingming (Xia Country)…”

“Global top eight, our Xia Country occupies three! This is the strength of Xia Country!”

"If Liu Hai and Lei Yun are from the older generation of warriors, then Xu Jingming, at only 29 years old, is definitely considered the younger generation..." 。The young generation of experts from our Xia Kingdom can also rank among the top ten globally. 。"

The virtual world viewing platform, countless live broadcast rooms were already buzzing with excitement about this topic" 。While Li MiaoMiao's livestream originally only had dozens of thousands of viewers, the number of viewers suddenly increased rapidly. 。200,000, 300,000, 500,000, 1 million…

The growth rate is getting more and more exaggerated!

"What's going on" Li Miaomiao was still a little dumbfounded. She only saw the number of viewers in the live broadcast room increase sharply, and immediately looked at the countless floating comments >>> 。"Brother-in-law is eighth in the world!"

"Eighth in the world!"

"Xu Jingming, eighth in the world!"

"Brother-in-law, eighth in the world on the Starry Sky Ranking!"

"Meow... Brother-in-law is so awesome!"

The comments are completely crazy 。Li Miaomiao blinked her eyes, her heart beating faster and her face flushing. 。"Ming finally made it through the third floor of the Starry Sky Tower" Li Miaomiao thought, although Xu Jingming had said he could pass within three days, when that moment arrived, Li Miaomiao still felt incredibly excited and proud of Xu Jingming. 。

Li Miaomiao gently tapped with her right hand, opening the friend list and looking at Xu Jingming, who was ranked first. Xu Jingming's status was 'Fighting in the Starry Sky Tower', which made Li Miaomiao suppress the idea of going offline. Now, if she went offline, she wouldn't be able to see Xu Jingming either. >>> 。Li Miao Miao clicked on the viewing platform again and looked at other live streams. 。

Other live rooms have screenshots of the "Starry Sky List," which clearly show the newly appeared name Xu Jingming. 。I've seen everyone's comments. 。Li Miao Miao in the live stream, eyes slightly red, smiling, “I am also happy for Jing Ming.” 。"Brother-in-law is awesome!!! (Breaks down in awe)" "Brother-in-law, you're amazing!" 。"Meow meow, be sure to treat your brother-in-law well!" 。"The comments are still rolling in, and the viewership is skyrocketing, already heading towards ten million online viewers." 。For a personal live stream, this is an unthinkable number. 。

Some viewers couldn't contain their excitement and generously showered the streamer with gifts. 。Li Miaomiao was looking at the comments, chatting with her friends and keeping an eye on their statuses all the time. 。The moment Xu Jingming left the Starry Sky Tower. 。"My brother-in-law is looking for me, I'll go offline first." 。Li Miao Miao said a word, then immediately left, she didn't even bother to close the livestream. 。Only tens of millions of viewers remained in the live room, facing an empty livestreaming scene. 。Xu Jingming just failed and returned to his personal space. 。

Then she found Li Miaomiao had arrived at the gate of the courtyard and was knocking. 。According to his settings, only Li Miaomiao could come to the personal space without an invitation. 。faint

Xu Jingming went to open the courtyard door. Outside the courtyard gate, there was a layer of snow. Li Miaomiao stood there in her single coat, not feeling cold at all. Her heart was filled with passion. 。

"Jingming" 。As Xu Jingming opened the courtyard gate, Li Miaomiao excitedly leaped up and jumped onto Xu Jingming. 。Xu Jingming hugged his girlfriend tightly. 。"The whole internet is going crazy now" 。"Li Miaomiao said, "My livestream has gone crazy too. Just now it had tens of millions of people watching all at once, all because of you" 。"

Okay, okay, I understand. Just get down from me first." 。Xu Jingming smiled. 。No, carry me into the house. 。Li Miaomiao shook her head. 。

"Okay" 。Xu Jingming could only hold his girlfriend back to the room. 。th floor of the Starry Sky Tower. 。When determining whether Xu Jingming passed the third layer, on the huge leaderboard in the night sky outside the Starry Sky Tower, a new name also appeared. 。At thi...
