Chapter 34 Still Has a Point of 8, Undefeated
"Ding! Guidance successful! Bafang Bubai has gained enlightenment thanks to your guidance. In order to become a top master, he began to study hidden weapons. After ten years of painstaking research, he finally developed his unique hidden weapon, the Thousand Flower Flying Knife, on a dark and windy night. However, due to neglecting martial arts practice, Bafang Bubai's skills have slightly declined, and he has now fallen from being a first-rate master in the martial arts world. Loyalty +1!"
"Ding! Invincible Eight Directions has obtained the ultimate look!"
"Ding! The Eight Directions Invincible skill has been updated to [Myriad Flowers Technique]."
Wang Jue glanced at the system notifications and couldn't help but want to drag the system out and beat it to a pulp.
His martial arts skills have declined, and he has fallen back to being a first-rate master?
Why give it such a "perfect look"?
Does "perfect styling" necessarily mean baldness?
System, do you even have any culture?
Do you even know what "the pinnacle" means?
Wang Jue even suspected that someone was impersonating the system to amuse him.
At this moment, Bandhu jumped over from a distance. He looked at the invincible Bafang with his perfect appearance and roared angrily at Wang Jue: "My wife has such beautiful long hair, how did you turn her into a bald man? This is so weird and ruins her image. Change her back, you bastard!"
"It's very difficult!"
Wang Jue replied seriously, thinking to himself, "You only have one hundred points of soul power left, Invincible Eight Directions, you'd better do your best!"
Immediately, Wang Jue's body shone with light once again.
"Invincible Eight Directions, you've traded ten years of your life for your unique hidden weapon. Your long hair has turned bald, and your martial arts have declined, but it doesn't matter. I believe it was worth it. As the saying goes, 'A skilled craftsman must first sharpen his tools.' Now that you have your unique hidden weapon, calm down, avoid arrogance and impatience, and cultivate diligently. I remember you found quite a few martial arts manuals before. You can study them. You don't need to practice them, just study and comprehend them, learn from their strengths and make up for your weaknesses, and integrate them into your understanding..."
Before Wang Jue could finish speaking, Bafang Bubai nodded seriously, and then his body shone with light.
"Ding! Guidance successful. Under your guidance, Bafang Bubai has suddenly gained enlightenment. On a dark and windy night, Bafang Bubai went into seclusion to study the [Boy's Skill Manual], [Nine Yang Skill Manual], [Arhat Golden Body Manual], and [Dual Cultivation Divine Skill Manual]. Fifteen years later, on another dark and windy night, Bafang Bubai fully comprehended the essence of martial arts, integrated the strengths of various schools, and created his own martial art, [Flying Flower Divine Skill]. Even flying flowers and falling leaves can injure people. After emerging from seclusion, he was already a top master in the martial arts world!"
"Ding! Your [Martial Arts Hero - Invincible in All Directions] has been promoted to four stars, with all skills updated and loyalty increased by 10..."
"Finally, we've identified a top-tier expert, but unfortunately, his hair hasn't grown back!"
Wang Jue felt slightly relieved and couldn't wait to bring up the information panel of the Eight Directions Invincible.

Wang Jue was satisfied and said, "A four-star top-tier expert, with a long enough range, good! Very good! This lord is looking forward to seeing you shine in the duck-slaying competition!"
"A dark and windy night, the timing is perfect!"
The invincible warrior bowed in respect.
Upon hearing the words "Duck Killing Competition," Bandhu's eyes lit up. He jumped up to Wang Jue and asked, "Hey, can I participate in the Duck Killing Competition?"
"If you want to participate, then participate. Why are you asking me?"
Wang Jue turned around and went to make bricks with a cold expression.
At this time, the "courtyard wall" was not yet completed. Wang Laihui and Qian Yuewan were building the south wall. The wall was about 20 meters long, two meters thick and six meters high. A gate was left in the middle of the south side as the entrance to the courtyard. It faced the fence gate, and the three fish-men brothers guarded the gate. There were steps behind the wall to climb up.
A moment later, a small boat arrived outside the fence gate.
The player on the small boat was none other than Audron. He disembarked and shouted from outside the fence gate, "Lord, I'd like to participate in the Duck Slaying Contest. May I bring one along?"
After calling for a moment, Bandhu hopped over, looking arrogant, and said, "You're quite clever, knowing to come here for the duck-slaying competition. Come in, I'll take you to see the Sand Sculpture Lord."
Bandhu controlled the mysterious scarecrow and led Odron into the territory. Surprisingly, the patrolling progenitor cat did not attack Odron. The two arrived at the gate of the compound without any trouble, but were stopped by the three fish-men brothers on guard.
"My name is Jason the Carp!"
"My name is Nyanko-sensei!"
"Murlocs are unkillable!"
The three brothers kept reciting their lines, looking fierce, and stood in front of Odron, not only preventing him from entering the compound, but even trying to drive him away.
Bandhu cursed and swore, making Audron somewhat embarrassed.
Fortunately, Wang Jue was nearby and intervened in time to prevent a conflict.
Wang Jue welcomed Audron's desire to participate in the duck-killing competition on his own territory.
According to the rules of the duck-killing competition given by the system, the number of times an adventurer kills a Fallen Fire Duck is counted in the number of kills in their territory. So for the lord player, having one more adventurer in their territory is just having one more free fighter, which is not a bad thing.
If conditions permit, recruiting a large number of adventurer players to serve as henchmen in the territory is a good way to rack up points.
Wang Jue believed that someone would definitely do this.
Of course, he disdains it now.
Besides, time is tight, and I'm too lazy to do these little tricks.
A while later, the system broadcast sounded: "Regional Announcement: The Fallen Fire Duck storyline and the Duck Slaying Contest event will begin in three minutes. All player territories will be temporarily under sea ban. The Fallen Fire Duck will condense in the Chaotic Star Sea, pass through the territory, and disappear. Please prepare your defenses."
"Three minutes!"
Wang Jue stopped making bricks, looked up at the sky, and then said to Audron and Bandhu beside him, "It's about time. Go up to the city wall and prepare to slaughter the ducks!"
"good!"
Bandhu didn't consider himself an outsider at all and jumped directly onto the city wall steps.
Audron bowed to Wang Jue and hurriedly went up to the city wall.
The city wall is two meters thick, with crenellations on top, and the bricks are laid flat like a road, making it perfectly suitable for fighting.
Wang Jue stopped making bricks. He first bought 100 units of food from the Lord's Shop, and then recruited 10 old beggars from the simple shack.
Subsequently, Wang Jue deployed all his troops, except for the bricklayer, the gray-knife bricklayer, and 20 old beggars who were gathering resources in the Illusionary Wood Forest, to the city wall. These included Mad Dog King, Bafang Bubai, the three fishman brothers, Run Fast, and 28 old beggars.
The twenty-meter-long city wall was suddenly completely filled with it.
"The Fallen Fire Duck can fly; I wonder how high it can fly. If we could hit it from the city wall, that would be really exciting!"
Wang Jue pondered silently.
Just as he reached the city wall, the system broadcast sounded: "Ding, server-wide announcement: The [Fallen Fire Duck] storyline has begun, and the Duck-Slaying Competition has officially started."
"Ding! The leaderboard data will be released three hours after the event begins, and will be refreshed every three hours thereafter. Ranked players or territories can choose to list using their real names or anonymously. Event rewards will be distributed immediately after the event ends!"
"Ding! There's a chance that Strange Fire Ducks will appear during the event. Defeating them will reward you with items, story bonuses, or trigger story events. Please pay attention to system notifications for details..."
