In the spacious and bright room, the bookshelves are crisscrossed and filled with all kinds of ancient books, which look particularly bookish. At this time, in the center of the room, three people are standing quietly. , behind the table in front of them, an old man with white hair and beard was slowly flipping through the information in his hand. The whole room was in an atmosphere of silence.
The three people standing in the room were two men and one woman. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Bai Shan, Wu Hao, and Hu Jia who were seriously injured by Xiao Yan. At this time, the two Bai Shans were looking down. Although his face was still a little pale, his complexion was much better than before. Hu Jia on the side stared at the old man who was reading a book. After a long time, he pouted and looked aggrieved. .
After the silent atmosphere lasted for nearly ten minutes, Vice Dean Hu Qian finally looked away from the books and said calmly: "Don't expect me to vent your anger. You asked for this. If you If you have the ability, you can just go and beat Xiao Yan to get some relief, but as for who can beat whom, I don't care. In Canaan Academy, this kind of competition is not prohibited. You can do it anytime you want."
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to do anything. The reason I lost like that that day was because I was unprepared. I didn't even use my trump card. Otherwise, I still don't know who won and who lost." Hu Jia snorted. With a cry, he said: "I'm just angry that that guy doesn't know how to show mercy at all. After all, I'm a girl too. Couldn't he be gentler? I'm not as thick-skinned as the two of them."
Hearing Hu Jia's muttering, Hu Qian couldn't help but laugh, and said helplessly: "At that time, who cares about your pity and pity, the three of you joined forces to attack one of them, if Xiao Yan still holds back, it will be real. It’s a bit unreasonable. Of course, his last move also made me extremely surprised. This kid is also a ruthless character.”
"You three, don't make enemies with him because of this matter. Young people should be open-minded and struggle with this matter. It's not worth it. Xiao Yan's potential in the future will also be extremely terrifying. Remember, it's better to have more friends than It is better to have multiple enemies, not to mention this enemy can still make people feel creepy." Hu Qian looked at the three people in front of him and said seriously.
"Hmph, women are the ones who hold grudges the most. I will also remember that kick. Don't let me take the chance." Hu Jia curled her lips and said.
Hearing what Hu Jia said, Hu Qian actually laughed. Based on his understanding of the former, he naturally knew that at this time, she really didn't have the mood to hold grudges, but it was obvious that Xiao Yan's kick did make her angry. Dehujia is resentful, and although he will not be his enemy in the future, he is afraid that at least he will not give him a good look.
"I will not regard him as an enemy, but I will regard him as an opponent that must be surpassed." Wu Hao said calmly.
Hu Qian nodded slightly. This Wu Hao was indeed a fighting maniac, but it was just such a person who could go a long way on the road to becoming a strong man. No wonder even the dean was very optimistic about him.
"Haha, it's just a competition. It's extremely normal to get injured. How can we hold grudges?" Baishan said with a smile, and there was no trace of anger on his smiling face.
However, Bai Shan's smile made Hu Qian frown without a trace. As the vice president of Canaan College, he has lived for so many years. With his shrewdness, how could he not hear Bai Shan's smile? Is this statement false or true?
After taking a deep look at the smiling Bai Shan, Hu Qian said nothing. He knew that the popularity he had received over the years was now shattered to pieces by Xiao Yan. He must be extremely unwilling to accept it, but... .I hope he won't do anything stupid. Otherwise, Hu Qian doesn't think that the young man who dared to challenge a sect on his own in the Jiama Empire will be a light bulb.
"Crunch."
The crisp sound of the door opening suddenly sounded quietly, and a voice came into the room: "Vice Dean, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er are here."
"Invite them to come in." Hu Qian said with a smile as he closed the books in his hands, and immediately turned his gaze to the three people from Baishan and said: "When you enter the inner courtyard in the future, you may have to fight together, so don't make the relationship tense. , if the freshmen who enter the inner courtyard every year do not stick together, the end will not be very good. In addition, in the inner courtyard, strength is respected, and whoever has a strong fist will get the best training conditions. There, any of you Everyone’s background is useless, including me!”
When saying the last sentence, Hu Qian stared at Hu Jia closely, and the meaning was self-evident.
Pouring his lips, Hu Jia was noncommittal, but nodded on his face.
Not long after Hu Qian's voice fell, two figures walked slowly towards the door. Their eyes glanced around the spacious room, and finally stopped on Hu Qian behind the table. The two took two steps forward and bent down to salute. .
"Haha, you two are finally here." Looking at the two of them with a smile, Hu Qian's eyes lingered on Xiao Yan's face for a while. It has been nearly ten days since Xiao Yan came to Jia Ma Academy. It was the first time for me to look at such a close distance with this top student whose reputation had reached the pinnacle of the academy at this moment.
Peaceful and gentle, when they first looked at each other, two words suddenly popped up in Hu Qian's heart. He murmured in his mouth, but he gave a bitter smile. These two words were in harmony with the madness Xiao Yan showed during the battle. Wildness is two completely different extremes.
After Dang Huqian stared carefully at the pair of dark eyes for a long time, his sophisticated eyes finally noticed the flame-like irritability and instability surging under the calm. It looked like a hidden building. Like the calm mountains of a volcano, the terrifying volcano will erupt with staggering terrifying energy and rage anytime and anywhere.
"The fighting energy in the body seems to be flowing gently, but there is a faint feeling of volcanic instability. It seems to be related to the strange fire he has mastered." Looking at Xiao Yan's body, Hu Qian unexpectedly It was because he sensed the nature of the fighting spirit in the opponent's body. Such a method was worthy of being the vice president of the outer courtyard of Canaan College.
"Since you are all here, I won't be nagging you anymore. You should also have the purpose of calling you here." Standing up from the chair, Hu Qian smiled and said: "You are the top five in this selection. According to the rules, you are eligible to enter the library and try your luck."
With that said, Hu Qian came to the wall behind him and patted it casually a few times with his palms. A low rumble sounded, and soon a dark passage appeared in front of Xiao Yan and the other five.
"Follow me." He waved to the five of them. Hu Qian was the first to enter the dark passage. Hu Jia, who looked curious, followed without hesitation, followed by Wu Hao, Bai Shan, and others. After they had all entered, Xiao Yan took Xun'er and cautiously entered the dark passage. His years of experience had also forged his cautious temperament.
After entering the passage, Xiao Yan discovered that the walls were inlaid with huge luminous pearls. The faint light illuminated the passage and made the light a little hazy, but this light was enough for Xiao Yan and others.
In the passage, the atmosphere was quiet, only the sound of subtle footsteps could be heard. Xiao Yan glanced at Hu Qian, who was leading the way, but he held Xun'er's hand a little tighter. As a newcomer, he was very familiar with the situation. He was really not familiar with this Canaan College, and he also didn't know much about the temperament of the powerful vice-president.
As if aware of Xiao Yan's nervousness, Xun'er patted his palm lightly, smiled at him and shook her head.
Nodding slightly, Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his mood gradually returned to calmness, and his pace became a little faster.
After walking in the passage for about half an hour, a bright light finally appeared at the end of the passage. Seeing the light, the pace of the people in the passage accelerated a lot. After a while, they finally arrived at the end of the passage. He took a step forward.
The dazzling eyes swayed down from the sky, causing Xiao Yan and others to close their eyes slightly. After a while, they slowly opened them and looked at the scene that appeared in front of them, but they were slightly surprised.
At this time, in front of Xiao Yan and others, there is obviously a valley groove. The steep mountain wall extends all the way up, and finally to the end of the line of sight. Among the three cliffs, there happens to be an extremely wide open space. At this time, In that open space, a staggeringly large and heavy ancient pavilion stood on top of it.
His eyes slowly swept across the huge and simple pavilion, and finally stopped on an extremely ancient plaque outside the pavilion. On it, three fonts that had been somewhat blurred by the passage of time were looming. out.
Library!
Although the ancient handwriting has been destroyed by the years, Xiao Yan and others are still shocked by the simple artistic conception contained in the handwriting. It is indeed the mysterious library in the outer courtyard of Canaan College. This plaque alone is It reflects its identity.
Hu Qian led the five of them slowly towards the Library Pavilion. When he was about to enter the 20-meter distance, he suddenly stopped, clasped his fists in the direction of the Library Pavilion and said: "The top five in this inner court selection competition have been born. According to the rules, According to the rules, I brought them here and asked the elders to open the door!"
Hu Qian's words, carried by fighting spirit, lingered in the small valley for a long time.
Shortly after Hu Qian finished speaking, Xiao Yan's eyes that were staring at the library suddenly shrank, his gaze moved violently, and finally stopped at the door of the two gray-robed figures sitting cross-legged on the ground, who had just entered At that moment, he could clearly see that there was no human figure here at all!
But now, these two men in gray robes seemed to be sitting there. Such a strange scene made Xiao Yan feel a little chilled and shocked. However, despite being shocked, his interest in the library became more and more intense. It's getting thicker and thicker. For Canaan College to treat it so seriously, I'm afraid the things stored inside are not ordinary.
"As expected of Canaan College, it really has a strong foundation."
