The bonfire burned in the mountain forest at night, dispelling the surrounding darkness and chill.

The soft and melodious sound of the guitar played unhurriedly.

Tents were set up around the area, and more than a dozen young men and women were enjoying midnight snacks around the campfire.

Everyone looks like a student, the men and women are almost perfectly matched, leaning against each other, and the picture looks extremely harmonious.

On the periphery of the crowd, a young man who looked like a tree was standing aside, quietly looking at the girl playing the guitar, his eyes warm and calm.

The girl played the guitar, with a gentle and bright smile. The night wind blew her hair, the light of the bonfire flickered, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.

"Senior, I heard that you and Xiaoxue plan to get married after graduation?"

A girl with light freckles on her face looked at this picture and asked with some envy.

"Your news is out of date."

Another young student came over, stopped the freckled girl's shoulder, and laughed softly: "Senior and the class monitor went to see a house a few days ago. We don't understand the nearly 800-square-meter mansion and the world of rich people."

"You still have the nerve to say it."

The freckled girl gave her boyfriend a fierce look: "When will you take me to see a house? If you don't want it to be 800 square meters, do you have a small house of 80 square meters?"

The boy smiled and scratched his head.

"The house prices in our hometown are not that high, so we bought a bigger house. From the perspective of my family, I am getting old now and there is nothing to envy."

The handsome and gentle man smiled and shook his head. His eyes noticed a man and a woman walking towards the depths of the mountain forest in tacit agreement. He frowned and was a little worried: "Don't go too far. It's not safe in the middle of the night."

"Don't worry, senior."

The girl's face was a little rosy, she glared at the boyfriend beside her, and laughed playfully: "With Xiaoxue here, there won't be any danger."

The girl playing the guitar smiled and waved her hands, full of confidence.

The boy shook his head and said nothing.

The freckled girl stood there and laughed when she saw this scene: "Senior, Xiaoxue is a master of martial arts. I'm afraid you will be bullied by her for the rest of your life after you get married."

"I am willing to do so."

The young man laughed softly.

"The squad leader shouldn't have entered our school, right? I've heard people say that her family is very powerful, and she seems to be very talented. She should have gone to Huating or Youzhou. It is said that there are some special operations there.

The academy is held every three years and is mysterious, but she gave up the opportunity for the seniors, is that right?"

The freckled girl was a little curious.

The young man's eyes became gentler and gentler. He looked at his beloved girlfriend and said nothing.

The guitar sound was interrupted for a moment.

"One more song, one more song."

The young students around him began to cheer and applaud.

The girl whose strength was completely superior to everyone but not arrogant at all smiled. She seemed a little shy and gentle. She glanced at her boyfriend, tilted her head, and chuckled: "Let's play another childhood song.

.”

The sound of the guitar continued to sound amid the applause.

The girl's voice is ethereal and graceful.

"On the banyan tree by the pond..."

She sang softly, but the sweet voice suddenly stopped in an instant.

Everyone looked at her in surprise.

The girl named Xiaoxue turned extremely pale in an instant.

Her gentle eyes suddenly became extremely frightened, and her whole expression seemed to be distorted.

The young man who noticed this scene walked directly to her without thinking: "What's wrong?"

"Look, shooting stars."

The freckled girl suddenly pointed at the sky and screamed.

Everyone raised their heads.

The night sky seemed to light up for a moment.

Through the sparse mountain forest in winter, as far as the eye can see, a ray of light instantly crosses the sky.

No one knows how far that distance is.

But everyone noticed that flash of light.

The bright moon and the dazzling stars all seemed to dim the moment the stream of light appeared.

The stream of light seemed to tear the sky apart, flashing at an unimaginable speed.

Meteors streak across the night.

The next moment, that ray of light had already flown over their heads from the extremely distant night sky.

There seems to be a faint colorful line left in the night.

The next second, the stream of light went away in an instant and disappeared directly from everyone's sight.

"gorgeous..."

I don't know how long it took before someone murmured softly, and then his body trembled subconsciously.

Everyone suddenly felt so cold.

The entire mountain forest, the entire world seemed to be filled with a kind of intense coldness.

A girl named Xiaoxue who should have entered Sky Academy or Deep Sea Academy a few years ago collapsed in her boyfriend's arms, with no strength left in her body.

The meteor has passed.

But her eyes were still extremely frightened, and she couldn't say a word.

Ordinary people may just feel cold.

But she knew very well what this cold meant.

This is edge.

Unparalleled sharpness.

...

Yan and Zhao Shangwu.

As a barrier near Youzhou, the martial arts of Yan and Zhao have always played an extremely important role in Central Continent.

One of the twin walls of Sigh City is Liu Yun, the current director of the Youzhou Special Operations Bureau.

Hua Qingfeng, the master of the Shadow Sect.

Han Chongyang, master of the Yin-Yang Sword of Shushan.

The enchantress of the Wang family in Beihai.

Etc., etc.

Many of the people who play the backbone of the special warfare system in Zhongzhou are Yanzhao people.

Yanzhao does not have martial arts forces in the dark world similar to Shushan Yaochi, but in such a large province, there are many martial arts families. The heads of the families are at least masters at the peak of the Burning Fire Realm, and many of them are in the Thunder Realm. These people gather in

At the same time, power is extremely objective.

The martial arts in Shushan Yaochi lies in practice.

The martial arts of Yan and Zhao were all about competition.

All the martial arts families in Yanzhao Province who are qualified to compete on the stage will compete every once in a while. This is also a famous elite martial arts competition in Yanzhao.

To be precise, it is held every three years.

The events are held at the end of the current term of both colleges, that is, in the winter of the year before graduation.

The Elite Martial Arts Tournament selects some top-ranked winners and sends them to Sky Academy and Deep Sea Academy.

There is no threshold for the martial arts competition. Regardless of life or death, everyone who knows the news is eligible to participate. The scene is huge, but extremely chaotic and time-consuming. However, this is the method that Yanzhao has always used to select top elites.

Canghai City.

The elite martial arts competition has lasted for nearly a day.

From day to night.

The uneven selection process has come to an end.

The rest is a battle between elites.

At the edge of the huge martial arts arena, the patriarchs of many aristocratic families sat there with different expressions on their faces, waiting for the referees to tally the results.

In the center of the house, an old man looked at his grandson standing in front of him with a smile, and said softly: "You performed well today, keep up the good work."
