Chapter 78 Literary Fight
Zhou Tieyi exerted force with his palm and used the strength in his hand to throw the soldier away.

The soldier knew that he was no match for Zhou Tieyi, so he turned over to release the force, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, General Zhou, for your advice today."

Zhou Tieyi also stood with his hands behind his back in a very graceful manner, thinking for a moment, and then commented with a smile, "Within three years, you can enter the middle grade. If you have the opportunity in the future, you may be able to see the wonders of the upper third grade."

It's just business praising each other. Why should workers make things difficult for each other? Let's keep the good relationship so that we can meet again in the future. What my mother taught me is indeed right.

In this world, you have to be ruthless when killing people and smile when being kind to others.

The soldier bowed to Zhou Tieyi again in gratitude. With this evaluation, he promised that he would not be punished when he returned today.

Sure enough, when he returned to the Seventh Prince and knelt to accept the punishment, the Seventh Prince sighed and said, "This is not Zhan's fault. How can I blame you? Stand up and ask General Zhou for advice later."

He did not refuse to pay, and handed the jade pendant and his fish bag to the eunuch next to him, asking the eunuch to give them to Zhou Tieyi.

Zhou Tieyi secretly gave the Seventh Prince a thumbs up, this guy is pretty good.

And Tianbao Tower is really rich, I will go there more often in the future.

"What kind of vision is this?"

A prince asked softly.

To be able to attain one kind of vision at the eighth level of martial arts was already very valuable, but to be able to attain another kind of vision was beyond other people's imagination.

"It seems to be the Buddhist 'immovable as a mountain', but I'm not sure."

The monk next to him answered in a low voice.

This is so strange. Everyone knows that Zhou Tieyi has connections with Taoism, so how could he witness the Buddhist visions?

Even the Great Xia Emperor smiled and said to the Daming Palace Master, "Aren't you Taoists afraid that the Buddhists will abduct him away?"

Since ancient times, the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have loved and hated each other.

When I was angry, I wished the other two families would be exterminated.

But when things are going well, there aren't many obstacles in the transformation of the three cultivation methods.

There are countless people who have achieved great success from Confucianism to Buddhism and Taoism, and there are also many who have switched between Taoism and Buddhism.

The Lord of Daming Dao Palace said calmly, "Don't be afraid."

After winning the first place, Zhou Tieyi did not even mention taking a rest, but continued to challenge, "Which other prince's disciples would like to teach me?"

But there was no reply for a long time.

No one present is a fool.

Before, I only knew that Zhou Tieyi had reached the ninth rank, but I didn’t expect that he would reach the eighth rank in just one month!
The eighth grade is naturally very different from the ninth grade.

Especially in order to deal with Zhou Tieyi's challenge, they specially brought eighth-rank and ninth-rank warriors with them.

As an eighth-grade warrior, he has to surpass Zhou Tieyi who can surpass the champion marquis...

Even they themselves don't believe it, the criminal border soldier has already made it clear.

Seeing that no one said anything, Zhou Tieyi was not in a hurry. It was not worth offending the people present for a few dragon fish. However, even if it was not for the dragon fish, he would still offend some people.

He turned slowly and looked at the prince.

He didn't say anything, just smiled and bowed.

However, everyone present could see the contempt on his face.

The prince suddenly slapped the armrest on which he was sitting!
He had not originally planned to deal with Zhou Tieyi today.

After all, he is the crown prince of a country and should be generous and kind. Naturally, someone will help him deal with Zhou Tieyi, who is just a grasshopper after autumn.

But today, in the stormy lake, the situation is very different.

First, the good fourth brother hid it just as well as Zhou Tieyi. Even he was deceived!

Later, Zhou Tieyi reversed his situation with a volume of immortal article, and went from being a grasshopper in autumn to a carp leaping over the dragon gate.

What’s even more infuriating is that the other party actually took advantage of his father’s favor to blatantly suppress him.

Having been the crown prince for more than 20 years, Li Can had never been bullied like this!

Especially since Zhou Tieyi just gave a disdainful smile, although he didn't say anything, it was more hurtful than his previous words.

"Destroy yourself, you go!"

The prince said through gritted teeth.

It was too late for the scribe next to him to persuade him.

But even if he wanted to persuade the prince, he might not be able to do so.

Logically speaking, as the eldest prince, the crown prince needs to suppress his younger brothers in every situation and prevent them from having any inappropriate thoughts.

And fishing for dragon fish in Fengyu Lake.

If you look at it in a small way, it's about fishing for dragon fish; if you look at it in a big way, it's about the ability of the princes to attract guests. If the crown prince cannot control the fourth prince who used to frequent red-light districts, then the other princes present will more or less look down on him.

Especially since others have provoked him to the face, if the prince does not take action, then can everyone use other people to provoke him to the face in the future?

Beside the prince, a tall and strong monk wearing a shawl with the right shoulder exposed walked step by step to the center. When he approached, the ground around Zhou Tieyi was shaking.

This monk was already over thirty years old, and had reached the fifth level of spiritual practice. He was no weaker than Shenxiu, though lacking a bit of agility.

When fishing for dragon fish, the princes always only brought two people in, and even the crown prince was no exception. He had never thought of dealing with Zhou Tieyi before, so those who followed him were all meritorious officials.

The monk also knew that with his fifth-grade cultivation, it would not be glorious for him to bully Zhou Tieyi, who was eighth-grade, even if he won. What's more, in a gambling fight, if you were one grade short, people could still place bets, but if you were three grades short, crossing the boundary between the lower three grades and the middle three grades, how could they gamble?

So the monk said, "I, a poor monk from Nalanda Temple, have been to the almshouse of Mr. Zhou. There is a difference in my cultivation level with Mr. Zhou, so why not let us fight with words?"

Zhou Tieyi did not refuse directly, and asked, "How is the literary duel?"

The monk pointed to the ground and said, "I am standing like a Vajra Seat. If you can push me, then I will lose, so what?"

He smiled kindly.

Eighth rank, not to mention pushing him, even getting close to him is impossible.

"Can you use whatever means you want?"

Zhou Tieyi asked.

"Of course."

After saying this, the monk stood up like a mountain, and his exposed skin instantly turned the color of pure gold, and his entire body looked like it was made of gold.

The "Golden Body of Arhat" that A-Da practiced in Zhou's mansion is a simplified version of the "Vajrayana Mahamudra Sutra" that he practiced.

Zhou Tieyi took a look at the monk with his [real vision] and saw that the monk was barefoot. The skin on his heels was as thick as soil, had a stone texture, and was surrounded by the power of the earth veins.

Having made up his mind, he smiled and said to the prince, "Your Highness, you haven't placed your bet yet."

After that, he raised the jade pendant that the Seventh Prince had just asked the eunuch to deliver, and said, "I'm going to place all the bets I just made."

That means at least doubling the stakes!
"If you have the ability, I'll give you this jade pendant!"

The prince took off his jade pendant. As the crown prince of a country, his jade pendant was naturally different from that of the other princes. It was in the shape of five dragons gathered together. It not only had the bright yellow and heavy national destiny, but also absorbed the qi of the Five Emperors, and was formed into five dragons, which was very useful.

Zhou Tieyi was delighted when he saw this treasure.

Natural resources and treasures have always been in the possession of virtuous people since ancient times.

This treasure belongs to you!
