-Wow! Wow!
At that time the veins in Mok Gyeong-un’s left hand began to bulge and soon the muscles up to his wrist were seen swelling and the skin turning black.
‘!!!!!!’
Seeing this Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom’s eyes widened.
Mo Kyung-un’s left wrist was almost similar to what happened to Mo Yu-cheon’s body after he ran away.
The difference was that it was limited to the wrist.
‘no. ‘What is this?’
Mok Kyung-un said casually to the surprised man.
“Maybe it’s because I changed my blood pressure and exploded my energy but it’s putting a lot of strain on my blood vessels. Still I think it could be useful if applied only to a part of the body as long as it doesn’t explode. What do you think?”
“…..”
Lee Ji-yeom was at a loss for words at this question.
Is this possible?
It would have been understandable if they had looked at Mo Yu-cheon’s body searched through the path of fortune and found a way to utilize it in this way after much research.
But how did you do this?
“Why are you doing that? Does it seem less useful?”
“that is…”
Wow.
What should I say?
It was not an area that could be understood through the criminal’s thoughts.
Or rather it might have been possible because the lord possessing Mok-gyeong-un’s body was a dead person.
Regardless of martial arts it seemed like it would be difficult for any martial artist with any natural talent to realize this.
Is it possible for anyone to reproduce and utilize something like this just by looking at it?
That is no different from a boatman’s runaway.
‘It may not be a lie to say that the wall will be overcome within three years.’
But there was something Lee Ji-yeom didn’t know.
In the first place Mok Gyeong-un accurately remembered the wrong advice that he had told Mo Yu-cheon about.
‘It’ll be fine if you use it well.’
Based on this Mokgyeongun was implemented in this way because he could see with his own eyes the path of Mokyucheon’s fortune and how it works.
Even Cheongryeong was amazed at this talent of wood cultivation.
‘This guy…’
How did you get the idea to make it yours in this way?
Even in her eyes Mokyungwoon’s speed of development and open thinking were not only surprising but even scary.
Even though he had the same hearing as the dead this guy was truly a monster.
‘Maybe it’s not impossible.’
It was thought that resolving one’s resentment might not be such an impossible task.
Perhaps that was why her emotions became even more heightened.
Then Mok Gyeong-un murmured as he returned his black-stained hands to their original state.
“What do you want me to call you?”
This was a boating technique performed by changing the position of the blood sword.
Considering that
‘He’s a boatman but he changes his blood level at will so you can call him a reverse blood boat.’
Yeokhyeolsagong (易穴邪功).
In this way another vision was born to Mok Gyeong-un.
For ordinary warriors it was a shortcut to becoming a demon or a ruined person but on the other hand for Mok Gyeong-un who had a fast recovery speed and an original reverse blood flow technique whether in vitro or in the body it was no different from a dedicated vision that did not cause much trouble if controlled well.
Seeing this Sihyeolgok Joo Ji-yeom stuck out his tongue and said.
“…Your lord really surprises your subjects.”
“Is that so?”
Mok Gyeong-un chuckled and then asked.
“What happened to Mo Yu-cheon?”
“Fortunately the executives stopped it before four months had passed.”
‘iced coffee…’
Mok Gyeong-un couldn’t help but feel regretful at these words.
Since the surge of energy was beyond what Mok Yu-cheon could handle he naturally assumed that he would not be able to endure it this time and would become a ruiner or die.
But did he survive this time?
At this point Mok Yu-cheon was also lucky and seemed to have a long life ahead of him.
‘It’s unfortunate but there’s nothing we can do.’
Thanks to this I felt like I would have to be satisfied with the fact that I had obtained a new technique called reverse blood pressure.
* * *
And so the final dance of the last gateway ended.
However some controversy arose here.
The question was who would be the winner of this fight.
The first person to mention this was none other than Won Byeong-hak the King of Byeokryeok.
Originally Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom after much deliberation tried to announce the defeat of Mok Yu-cheon who had suffered serious internal injuries by overdoing the boat attack.
however
“I have an objection.”
“What if you object?”
“Although we intervened in the middle if we look at it in a confrontational way shouldn’t it be seen as Mo Yu-cheon’s victory?”
Some other executives seemed to agree with Won Byeong-hak’s objection.
After all bimu means competing.
However if they had not intervened along the way Mok Gyeong-un might have lost his life at the hands of Mo Yu-cheon who went berserk.
Considering this Mok Yu-cheon could easily be seen as the winner.
“hmm. “There is truth to what the King of Violent Power said.”
Lee Ji-yeom who was trying to make an announcement seemed to be conscious of the public opinion around him when he answered that way.
Then Won Byeong-hak twitched his lips slightly.
Although he presented a plausible justification that was not Won Byeong-hak’s actual intention.
‘This is the only way to slightly increase the probability of taking that child.’
If Mok Gyeong-un becomes the winner of the bimu he becomes the chief at the final hurdle so the choice is given to the party not the observers.
In that case the probability of King Myeongdo Son Yun Amjongju Choeumgokju Hangryeoryang Yeomma Dan Bohyeokso Jeokhyeoldan Daesoman and himself together with the probability becomes one in six.
On the other hand if you are unable to become a senior you will also be in a position where Mok Gyeong-un will have to be selected.
‘Then it becomes a fight between King Myeongdo and me.’
It didn’t feel like it was unreasonable but if he was determined and pushed for a position here how could other executives be drooling over what he was aiming for?
This was Won Byeong-hak’s calculation.
But here again someone raised an objection.
“You don’t know that.”
‘huh?’
He was none other than Son Yun the King of Myeongdo.
Won Byeong-hak frowned at this.
He thought that someone in the same position would sympathize with him because he was in a similar situation.
But what is this?
“What do you mean you don’t know about that?”
“Looking at it now I can see that the injury of the cadet named Mok Gyeong-un was lighter than I thought. As you who are masters know in a life-or-death battle superiority in attack power does not necessarily determine victory or defeat.”
“Huh. “It’s not a battle of life or death.”
“It’s the same even if it’s a bimu.”
The two people once again showed a sharp confrontation.
Seeing this Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
First of all I think I understand why they are doing that as Son Yun the King of Myeongdo expresses an opposing opinion.
‘It seems that the King of Violent Power is trying to increase the probability of taking his lord even a little and the King of Myeongdo is trying to gain favor by giving his lord a chief position.’
His prediction was correct to some extent.
King Son Yun of Myeongdo thought that if Mok Gyeong-un was a military officer anyway he would choose not all six officials but the five kings who were the strongest and most powerful among them.
At least if it’s that clever guy I saw at the Yeonmok Swordsman he never does anything to lose money.
So there was no need for him to take the chief position away from him.
“Hmm. In any case there is no change in the fact that the winner of this competition is a student named Mok Yu-cheon.”
Byeokryeok King Won Byeong-hak made his opinion clear.
In response Son Yun the King of Myeongdo said the same thing.
“Considering everything that Cadet Mok Gyeong-un showed today I think he is the winner.”
‘…This is how it comes out right?’
Won Byeong-hak gritted his teeth slightly.
If this happens doesn’t it seem to Mok Gyeong-un that he has become a villain himself?
So I wondered if I should change my opinion now.
Then someone came forward.
“I also agree with the opinion of the King of Strength.”
‘Choiumgokju?’
The person who agreed with his opinion was none other than Choeumgokju Hang Yeo-ryang.
She said looking at them.
“Of course it is certain that the student named Mok Gyeong-un possesses outstanding military talent but considering that this is a military martial I think we must draw a conclusion in accordance with that purpose.”
“effect?”
Son Yun the King of Myeongdo raised one eyebrow.
As if they were enemies the corners of Hang Yeo-ryang’s mouth turned up even more at this reaction.
“yes. That’s the purpose. In this association sailorship is also recognized as martial arts. Even if he went out of control it doesn’t change the fact that a cadet named Mok Yu-cheon overwhelmed Mok Gyeong-un even if only for a moment. “Isn’t that right?”
The two great leaders looked at her words and nodded.
In fact it was also because what she said made sense.
‘Hehehe. I think this Gokju will give in easily.’
Hang Yeoliang also coveted wood farming.
So she had to guide her observers in the direction they chose.
Since Mok Gyeong-un confirmed through the eum that he had no intention of doing so it was necessary to further solidify Mok Yu-cheon’s victory.
She had no intention of backing down from the fight against her two kings.
“Hmm.”
Here Won Byeong-hak the King of Violent Power seemed to think that her agreement was good and tried to plant a sword.
“Look at that. Most observers also have similar opinions. “If I were to look at talent alone I would rate that kid named Mok Gyeong-un higher but if I consider the purpose of Bimu of course…”
“Oh hoho hohong. “I’m sorry but is it okay for me to tell you my opinion?”
Everyone’s eyes including Won Byeong-hak turned to Am Jong-ju at the sound of his unique tickling laughter.
Amjongju stood up quietly covering his mouth with his palm.
Then he made a gesture with both hands and spoke.
“First of all I apologize for being rude along the way.”
“Hmm.”
At his apology King Won Byeong-hak coughed as if he was uncomfortable.
The reason he came forward after cutting himself off was because he was sure to express an opposing opinion.
In response Lord Amjong lightly waved his hand and said.
“You seem upset. I apologize. However in my view it seemed right to come to an accurate conclusion so I committed a discourteous act like this.”
“Exact conclusion? “What do you mean?”
Won Byeong-hak asked bluntly.
If you say something that doesn’t sound right they’re likely to criticize you right away.
At this Lord Amjong politely opened his mouth.
“To be honest I have the same opinion as King Myeongdo.”
“no. How accurate is that…”
“Of course this is not an exact conclusion just my opinion. However the fact that opinions are divided like this means that it is difficult to clearly determine the winner of this competition.”
“How can you not choose a winner? Anyone can see that if we hadn’t intervened in the conflict….”
“yes. “That’s the problem.”
“What?”
Won Byeong-hak frowned.
What on earth is this cancer leader talking about?
While I was puzzled Lord Amjong bent down with his hands clasped together and continued his speech.
“It’s as if Bimu had already returned to square one when we intervened. That’s why this controversy is happening.”
“Origin?”
“yes. If I hadn’t intervened the conclusion would have been reached one way or another. “That’s something everyone agrees on right?”
“…”
Hearing his words Won Byeong-hak let out a light sigh.
Isn’t that a natural thing to say?
However if they had not intervened Mok Gyeong-un would have lost his life and Mok Yu-cheon could have suffered a rupture in all of his blood vessels and become disabled or even died.
Both were able to be saved because of intervention in some way.
“Amjongju… What you said certainly had a point but if I hadn’t intervened it would have been a disaster for both cadets. “You don’t admit that?”
“I admit it. Therefore rather than basing the outcome on win or loss I think we should choose one of two options.”
“Two things?”
“yes.”
Hearing these words this time Hang Yeo-ryang of Cho-Eum-Gok-Ju asked as if he was curious.
“What is that?”
“It’s simple. “The match was halted due to the intervention of an observer so we must restart the match…”
“Do you think a rematch is possible now?”
Hang Ruoliang frowned and nodded towards the unconscious Mu Yuchen.
Mo Yu-cheon had severe internal injuries and was unable to fight for a while.
How on earth can we fight?
At this the head of the clan smiled and said.
“In that case we have no choice but to end it as a draw due to the observer’s intervention.”
‘!?’
Everyone fell silent at those words.
It was a completely different conclusion than what everyone had thought.
But it wasn’t an entirely unreasonable claim.
‘draw…..’
‘Nominally that’s true.’
‘It’s difficult to have a rematch right now anyway. ‘It is impossible to visit again at that time.’
‘Opinions are divided so it might be better.’
Most of them seemed to agree with the words of Amjongju.
If we continue to fight over who is the winner here there is no doubt that neither will give up.
But there was another problem here.
“Amjongju’s words also make sense. Since the match has been stopped a draw is also an option. But then what should we do with the chief?”
That was everyone’s concern here.
The reason everyone had different opinions about this result was because of whether Mok Gyeong-un was given a choice or the observers were given a choice.
At that time Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom came forward.
“How about doing it like this?”
Everyone’s attention was focused on him.
“There has never been a case where observers intervened in a meeting like this before. “What everyone agrees is that it wouldn’t be surprising if one of these two were the winner.”
“This grain wine… What do you mean?”
“It is difficult to rematch so if the result is a draw wouldn’t it be impossible to designate both cadets who remained until the end as losers?”
‘this!’
At these words the impression of Won Byeong-hak the King of Violence hardened.
In the end isn’t it a call to treat both cadets who passed the final dance at the last hurdle as valedictorians?
This gives the two cadets who are not observers a choice.
I wanted to fall in love with this but I had no reason to go any further.
‘Whoa.’
When I came forward all I could do was hang out.
* * *
In this way for the first time in the history of Sihyeolgok Gate two senior leaders were born.
However although he contributed to the two becoming chief ministers King Son Yun was concerned about the repercussions that would arise if the fact that the two hostages brought in from the political faction were co-chief ministers became known to the entire association.
However it was impossible to overturn the already decided results.
This is what happened and the aftermath was the responsibility of Hoeju who sent the hostage to Sihyeolgok here.
His only concern now was his own.
‘Thorough cultivation.’
I wanted to have that guy as my disciple.
I agreed that probably everyone here had the same opinion.
Although he is a co-chief there are not many people who would want to accept Mok Yu-cheon as a disciple or subordinate because he is a master of boating and carries a high risk.
At that time Sihyeolgokju Lee Ji-yeom who was on the podium spoke to Mok Gyeong-un who was standing there.
“Bio congratulating Mok Gyeong-un Danju and Mok Yu-cheon Danju who passed all the gates of Sihyeolgok and became a senior. As I mentioned earlier as a benefit of becoming chief the two owners were given the opportunity to select the executives who were present.”
The moment of choice has finally arrived.
Who will he choose?
Because the choice lies with Mok Gyeong-un most of the executives had no choice but to look nervous and expectant.
At that time Mok Gyeong-un politely bowed to the executives sitting on the chairs in front of the podium then raised his head and spoke politely.
“I’m sorry. “All of the executives are so great that it is difficult to come to a conclusion as to who to choose.”
‘hmm?’
What does this mean?
Mok Kyung-un who was looking puzzled smiled and said.
“So let me tell you straight. No matter how much it is I want to go to the person who desperately wants me. “If there is such a person I would like you to raise your right hand.”
-Sigh!
Hearing Mok Gyeong-un’s words the executives slightly raised their hands at the same time without saying who should go first.
Coincidentally it was all six executives.
They all looked sideways at each other and showed signs of discomfort.
It was an expected result.
Then Mok Gyeong-un twitched his lips and said.
“This is really difficult. “Everyone wants me…”
“…..”
“Then there is nothing we can do. I say this in the interest of fairness. Please don’t be too angry. “I would like the executives to tell me one by one what will be beneficial if I go.”
‘!?’
At Mo Kyung-un’s words the six executives frowned in unison.
Isn’t this the same as saying that anyone who wants to take them should offer a reasonable ransom?
