"Young Master, the Marquis still needs me, so I'll leave first. I look forward to good news from you." Outside the Guan Mansion, Yan Wei said with a smile.
"Uncle Wei, have a good trip." Chen Zong also smiled and said, "By the way, I'm telling Master that I will try my best to fight for it."
"Okay." Yanwei waved his hand, turned around and strode away without any reluctance.
For warriors like them, getting together, separation, and separation is normal, and separation and death are nothing.
After Yan Wei left, Chen Zong temporarily stayed in Guanfu in the inner city of the royal capital.
This is Master's home, so it's normal to live here by yourself.
According to what Marquis Zhengyuan said, the current issue of the title of national scholar is only preliminary and not the final decision. It needs to wait.
The residence arranged by Marquis Zhengyuan for Chen Zong was named Hongfengyuan.
Compared with the outer city, the inner city is not big, but the area is also very extensive. In addition to the royal palaces, the entire inner city is also the palace of the royal family, the prince's mansion, the commander's mansion, etc.
, each mansion covers a very large area, and there are many courtyards in the mansion, each of which is different.
The Red Maple Garden is full of red maple trees. It is now the late autumn season, and the maple leaves are like stars densely covered with branches. They are a large area of red, bright and dazzling.
Maple red is better than fire, which refers to the leaves of red maple trees.
The front door of Hongfeng Garden is made of white jade. The round white color of jade echoes the fiery red maple in the garden, which is indescribably bright and thrilling.
Stepping into the White Jade Gate, Chen Zong smelled a clear and unique smell. It was the smell of red maple, with a unique aroma.
The narrow path paved with white jade stones winds all the way, with maple leaves hanging down on the left and right sides. Along the path, there are several houses made of ancient black and red wood.
Hongfeng Garden is fully equipped.
There are bedrooms and other daily necessities, a practice room, etc., and there are people who deliver meals.
Hongfengping is octagonal, dozens of meters wide, surrounded by rockeries and flowing water, with maple leaves hanging down, and the scenery is unique.
Two sword lights of different colors are like butterflies passing through flowers, dancing gracefully with mysterious and unpredictable trajectories.
A sword erratic, suddenly piercing straight, sharp and resolute, as if it pierced everything in the world, and was indestructible. When the power was about to be exhausted, it suddenly changed, and it tilted downwards. It was indescribably tricky and strange.
.
Another sword appeared from a blind corner, as if leaping out of the void of the sea. It caught him by surprise, but it contained terrifying power.
The coordination of the two swords is perfect, just like two swordsman masters with a high degree of tacit understanding performing perfectly.
After practicing diligently, he saw Yanwei attack many times in the past month, and Yanwei also deliberately encouraged Chen Zong. Therefore, Chen Zong's progress in swordsmanship was obvious, especially the double swordsmanship, which was even more exquisite.
.
On the red maple flat, there are countless sword lights surrounding them, some are piercing straight, some are vertical and horizontal, some are curved like the waning moon, or some are meandering like silk threads, as flexible as eels in the water.
Each sword seemed to contain astonishing sharpness, able to cut through fine steel without causing any damage to anything around it, demonstrating Chen Zong's astonishing control over power.
An hour later, Chen Zong sheathed his sword, but countless sword lights were still flying through the air. It wasn't until he took a few breaths that he slowly faded and disappeared.
There was a popping sound and someone was clapping their hands, and Chen Zong saw three figures walking along the winding jade path.
Two men and one woman, dressed in fine clothes, with long swords on their waists, and a green jade pendant hanging on the other side, which is extraordinary.
"What advice do the three of you have?" Chen Zong asked without hesitation. He had just focused on practicing swordsmanship. However, these three people were not low in cultivation. When they came in, they made little noises and did not notice them when they were far away.
"I heard that you are the disciple accepted by my uncle?" One of the young men looked Chen Zong up and down, as if looking at goods, which made Chen Zong unhappy, but he did not get angry, but looked at the other person.
According to what the other party said, this person should be the son of Marquis Zhengyuan.
The son of Zhengyuan Hou, his status is not low, and his aura fluctuations are at the peak of the ninth level of Jinjin Realm, but he doesn't know what his combat power is, so he must be not low.
"I heard that your purpose is to get a title as a national scholar?" Seeing that Chen Zong did not respond, the son of Marquis Zhengyuan was a little displeased and his face sank. The man next to him immediately spoke with a bit of scolding, while the woman said with a bit of scolding.
He looked very amused, as if he was here to watch the fun.
"Yes." Chen Zong nodded.
"I said, you have no chance. The title of National Scholar is not something that you, a bumpkin from a small place, can covet. I advise you to go back to where you came from." The man sneered.
The son of Marquis Zhengyuan did not speak again, but the meaning contained in his expression was the same.
"You are afraid." Chen Zong ignored the young man, his eyes fell directly on the face of Zhengyuan Hou's son, and he said unhurriedly.
As if he had been guessed, the son of Zhengyuan Hou's expression darkened involuntarily.
"Afraid..." The young man next to Zhengyuan Hou's son suddenly screamed, his eyes shining with terrifying light: "Who do you think you are, a bumpkin from a small place? Who would be afraid of you?"
"Chen Zong, right? Since you won't leave, don't regret it when the time comes. The title of National Scholar is not something that a lucky person like you can get." The son of Zhengyuan Hou spoke again, his voice was a bit cold and inexplicable threatening.
, quite impressive.
In fact, the son of Zhengyuan Hou is not afraid. He also wants to become a national scholar, but it is not a sure thing. Naturally, he must reduce the number of opponents as much as possible. The fewer opponents, the greater the chance of being canonized as a national scholar.
It would be best to drive Chen Zong away, but there is nothing you can do if you can't drive him away. After all, he is a disciple of Linshan Hou.
An unexpected episode did not disrupt Chen Zong's cultivation plan. Chen Zong seized every moment to practice hard and improve his cultivation and combat power as much as possible.
As night fell, Chen Zong stood in the red maple field, closed his eyes, and practiced the visualization technique of Xiaogushan.
After traveling for a month, I had no time to practice this enlightenment technique, so my progress slowed down.
Chen Zong also discovered that the effect of practicing the visualization technique of Xiaogushan here did not seem to be as good as practicing it on the mountain climbing list.
"Perhaps, I should look for a mountain outside the city." Chen Zong thought to himself.
"Who?" Just after finishing the practice of Xiaogushan's visualization technique, Chen Zong felt a faint fluctuation, turned around quickly, his eyes were like sharp swords unsheathed, and the sword light streaked across the night sky.
There was no response, but a strong wind roared in, and a dazzling sword light tore the night sky apart. It was sharp and decisive, and it flew over ten meters in an instant and slashed towards Chen Zong's door.
As soon as he took action, Chen Zong judged that this sword had the ultimate three-star combat power. He had superb swordsmanship and was a master of swordsmanship.
When the Red Thunder Sword was unsheathed, it was like a streak of red lightning across the sky, hitting the opponent's sword. The moment the sword broke apart, it followed the trajectory and pierced the opponent's front door.
No matter who this sneak attack is, Chen Zong will not be polite.
The black shadow turned in mid-air, avoiding Chen Zong's sword like a boomerang, and came from the other side. What greeted him was the second sword light, which cut down like the beginning of the world.
A sword strike immediately made the black figure feel suffocated, as if it had turned into a mountain and was about to be split in half.
He raised his sword to resist, and the tyrannical force was like a mountain suppressing him. His whole body was directly chopped away, and his long sword trembled. The black shadow hit the rockery. With his strength, he swung his sword in the air. Swish, swish, swish, three sharp sword energy pierced the air,
It spun erratically and blasted towards Chen Zong, while the black shadow took this opportunity to fly back at an extremely fast speed.
After the two swords were struck down and the three sword energies were shattered, the black shadow disappeared. After Chen Zong chased him for a distance, he found that the black shadow had completely disappeared.
Chen Zong did not continue the pursuit, but returned to Hongfeng Garden. He was sure that the black figure must be a warrior from Guan Mansion, otherwise he would not be so familiar with Guan Mansion.
Chen Zong could also feel that the other party did not have any killing intention when he took action. Perhaps, he came with the idea of teaching him a lesson.
Basically combined, Chen Zong knew who the black figure was, and had no intention of telling Marquis Zhengyuan, it was just some small tricks.
…
With a swish sound, a black shadow flew in from the window and landed silently.
"I'm back, what's the result of the test?" Guan Yunxiao, son of Marquis Zhengyuan, poured himself a glass of fine wine and spoke while holding a sapphire wine glass.
"Master Xiao, Chen Zong's combat power can barely reach four stars." The man in black took off his mask, and the face revealed was that of the young man who had scolded and ridiculed Chen Zong many times during the day.
"Barely a four-star combat power. Well, it is not surprising to be accepted as a disciple by my uncle. It is not surprising to have such combat power." Guan Yunxiao was surprised at first, then drank the wine in the cup and smiled nonchalantly.
Four-star combat power may be rare in places like Linshan County, and it can be regarded as a well-deserved number one, but it is nothing in a place like the Royal Capital.
For example, Guan Yunxiao's own combat power has reached four stars.
"Master Xiao, do you think we should put him..." A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the young man dressed in black.
"No need, no matter what, he is my uncle's disciple. If he goes too far, he will not give my uncle face, and my father will not be happy then." Guan Yunxiao sneered: "Originally, I gave it to him.
A chance, I retreated from the difficulties, so as not to be embarrassed and ruin my uncle's reputation. Since he refused, relying on his four-star combat power, let him suffer. I also know that Wangdu is not a small person.
People from this place can play well."
"Young Master Xiao has a plan." The young man in black's eyes lit up and he smiled immediately.
"I have some ideas, but I still need the cooperation of the other party." Guan Yunxiao smiled coldly.
It's just unclear whether Chen Zongpei will cooperate or not.
"Young Master Xiao, I have an idea. I have to ask Chen Zong to cooperate even if he doesn't." The young man in black rolled his eyes and laughed: "Didn't the Marquis order Young Master Xiao to find a time to take Chen Zong with him?"
Are you going to take the assessment at Qunlong Pavilion? I just want to take this opportunity to give him a hard blow."
Guan Yunxiao thought for a moment and nodded, this method is feasible.
All night long, Chen Zong did not rest and kept practicing.
Swordsmanship, martial arts, and the visualization technique of Xiaogushan must all be practiced, and none of them must be left behind.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was dimming, and Chen Zong had finished practicing all night and was sitting cross-legged in the red maple flat to meditate.
Since practicing the visualization technique of Xiaogushan, the feeling of being in contact with nature is so wonderful that Chen Zong always practices outside his room whenever he has the opportunity.
