Chapter 118: We Are All the Same Today can be said to be the last day of the kendo challenge, because tomorrow at noon, everyone will set off for the next stop. At this time, most people have discovered that it is basically a pipe dream to want to pass this sword path with the strength of the third realm, so those who had this idea also gave up the challenge. But at this moment, there are still many people gathered in the familiar corner, even including some freshmen. They are not here for a challenge, but to watch someone. Chen Mo has spent another morning here, and he himself can't remember how many times he has tried. The only thing that proves that he keeps fighting despite repeated failures are the bruises on his body. Almost everyone has tried it, and they know very well that the offensiveness of the formations in kendo has been deliberately lowered a lot, and the impact when a person falls to the ground is probably not much heavier than a normal fall. The key point is that Chen Mo is a third-level practitioner who has mastered the Gangqiao. Now both of his arms and elbows have scars from the fall, which shows how many times he has tried. "Cousin! You don't have to do this for me!" Hu Mingxuan burst into tears again.
"Cousin, this is not for your own good, okay?" Su Qingqing stood beside him with an embarrassed look on her face. If they were not usually seen together and it was not possible to separate them, she would have pretended not to know this person. Like them, the others looked at this place for a long time and saw the difficulty of the fifth level. As expected, they thought it was an impossible test, but Chen Mo tried it over and over again. Most people cannot understand such behavior. Although the second-level elixir is good, it is not a life-extending elixir. It is worth trying, but there is no need to fight to this extent, right? Repeated attempts not only waste time, but also strain your body and Qi, and may result in you not being able to practice properly for two or three days. It would be fine if we say that as long as we work hard, we will definitely gain something. The key problem is that no one knows whether such an attempt will actually pay off. Pfft! Chen Mo was thrown out by the sword again. "Chen Mo, it's almost enough. Instructor Kang didn't say that someone must pass." Some people tried to dissuade him. "Let's go and practice." "Yeah, don't try too hard." Faced with these well-intentioned obstructions, Chen Mo waved his hand: "You guys go first, don't look at me here, it's a waste of time." "Tsk, you are really crazy." Liu Ning said, "You have opened all five orifices, awakened one spirit, and can do two and a half moves. You are definitely a winner in life. Why do you have to be so picky about a level 2 pill?" "Shut up!" Xue Qifeng came at some point, and he sternly stopped Liu Ning from trying to dissuade him, "How can you stop someone from challenging his limit!" No matter what Chen Mo's reasons were, this behavior was very much in line with his preferences. "me and you togather!" He even gave his support with his actions, and after leaving a few words, he also rushed to the sword path. Pfft! Then he was pushed out by the impact.
Chen Mo laughed and rushed forward again. So, from this moment on, the number of reckless men challenging the sword increased from one to two. "Aren't you going?" In the corner, Gu Xiaoxin looked indifferently at the sword path and Lu Ling standing next to him. "I'm not going." Lu Ling replied, "Yesterday I challenged the fifth level and failed eight times. That's not something I can do." Gu Xiaoxin didn't say anything else. He just stared at the two figures that repeatedly rushed up and flew out. The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed. They were shocked at Chen Mo's persistence at first, so they stopped to watch, but no matter how they looked, the result was failure, so there was no need to stay. “There’s no way they’ll succeed.” Gu Xiaoxin said this again. Lu Ling glanced sideways and felt a little surprised, because he felt that the other party did not seem to be trying to express a point, or in other words, this sentence was not intended to convince others, but more to convince himself. "I don't think so. At least they won't give up before they leave." The more he talked, the more it made sense to him. "Yeah, that's right, because they are all the same people." "Really? I don't think so." Gu Xiaoxin looked at the two figures who took turns to challenge him. One of them always looked angry, competitive, and practiced very hard, while the other one always did some irrelevant things and seemed very lazy. Lu Ling turned around and smiled: "I mean, they are all people who will fight to the limit for a goal." He pointed at himself and said, "As for a counterexample, take me for example. When I finally made it to the fifth level and found that the strength of the formation had been significantly enhanced, I judged that this was not something that could be broken through in a short period of time. Then I would rationalize and decide that I didn’t need to keep trying because I wouldn’t achieve my goal even if I hurt myself badly.” Gu Xiaoxin understood what he meant. It was obvious that the two people on the field were different. Even if he didn't know what they were thinking, the fact was that no matter what difficulties they encountered, they would choose to fight to the last moment at all costs. Lu Ling said: "So, I am very conflicted. My mind tells me that this formation is weird and impossible to break, but my emotion makes me look forward to the bell ringing." Gu Xiaoxin asked: "I can see the kind of person you are talking about in Xue Qifeng, but I still don't think Chen Mo is the same as him." Lu Ling took a deep breath and looked up at the azure sky above his head. "He entered the inner courtyard through the supplementary selection of the martial arts school not long ago. At that time, the plan proposed by our head instructor was to fight continuously without limit until he could no longer fight. I asked him, he defeated the most recognized strongest person in his class, and he was able to achieve the qualification to enter the inner courtyard. He then defeated dozens of opponents in succession until he lost consciousness and even punched the head instructor. " He lowered his head and pointed at Huang Cui who was handing water to Chen Mo. "That girl only opened her Yang and Spiritual Acupoints when she participated in the inner courtyard selection. The day before the competition, she knew that Chen Mo had opened one more Gang Acupoint than her, and from her perspective, there was only one vacant spot. But she still fought hard with the person who was recognized as the strongest in the same class and stayed in bed for three days." Finally, he pointed at Xue Qifeng, who was lying on the ground after just swinging his sword. "And he, I don't know what went wrong with him. He was about to break through the third realm, but he insisted on opening the last barrier. Even the head instructor advised him to give up. He worked hard for more than a month, and now all five barriers have been opened." Lu Ling smiled at Gu Xiaoxin.
"Did you hear what the common point is? No matter what the result is, they will never give up. Birds of a feather flock together. If not, how could they gather together? That's what I mean. They are the same kind of people." As if to confirm his words, a roar came from the sword path, and Chen Mo rushed under the fifth archway. (End of this chapter)
