Chapter 285 Separation and Mysterious Newborn (4.9k)
Jing Ziyan picked up the exploding nine-section whip on the ground and came to Ji Juechen's side with a bitter expression.
Even the frustration accumulated from repeated defeats at the hands of Xu Zihuang in the past is far less intense than it is today.
They regard Yu Tianhuang as the target to catch up with, but in Yu Tianhuang's eyes, they are not qualified to be stepping stones on his growth path.
"Juechen, maybe it was a wrong decision for us to regard him as the target of pursuit." Jing Ziyan smiled bitterly.
Juechen was silent for a long time, looking down at the Tianwai Meteor Iron Sword in his hand with firm eyes.
"Some gaps can't be made up if you want to. Just let nature take its course, do your best, and have a clear conscience."
However, his cool expression did not last long before he was interrupted by four guards who arrived.
Only a few seconds had passed from the beginning of the confrontation between Xu Zihuang and the three of them to the time when the winner was decided. By the time the guards reacted, the originally flat venue had been destroyed and turned into a mess.
The leading guard looked at Ji Juechen and said helplessly: "The college has express regulations that it is forbidden to use soul tools to fight in the non-soul guidance test area. Classmate Ji, it's not that we don't give you face, but you guys today
The traces left behind are too obvious.”
Naturally, these guards knew this swordsman who was famous in the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.
"I will pay for the maintenance of the road." Ji Juechen's face stiffened, and then he checked the surrounding situation. The ground within a fifty-meter radius was dented half a meter deep, and the fine steel bars mixed inside could be clearly seen.
A rough estimate shows that the maintenance cost is probably more than 10,000 gold soul coins.
He spends all his time with the sword, and he is not a soul master, so he has no extra income. His daily expenses come from the Mingdetang subsidy he receives, and he will definitely not be able to afford this money.
He didn't speak again, and just looked at Jing Ziyan beside him quietly.
Jing Ziyan, who was already feeling frustrated, immediately became furious when she saw Ji Juechen's appearance.
"Every time you cause a lot of trouble, I have to wipe your ass for you, right?"
After cursing and cursing, she finally helped Ji Juechen pay the maintenance fee.
"Thank you, Ziyan." After finishing the recording, Ji Juechen walked out of the guard room. Feeling enlightened, he greeted Jing Ziyan and turned away impatiently, carrying the Tianwai Meteor Iron Sword on his back.
Jing Ziyan was left alone, her eyes wide open in the wind, and she scratched her hair angrily.
"I can't stand it anymore! Can't you do something about this piece of wood?!"
Xu Zihuang on the other side also returned to his dormitory.
As usual, he met with He Caitou, who lived in the dormitory next door.
At this time, He Caitou was making some small parts for the soul guidance device on the soul guidance experiment table in the dormitory. Seeing Xu Zihuang, he seemed to have thought of something, and took out a stack of letter paper from the soul guidance device with a smile and handed it to
Xu Zihuang.
"By the way, Tianhuang. I received a letter from the college today. These are all for you."
"Brother and Senior Brother, I'll go over first." Xu Zihuang smiled slightly, took the letter and left He Caitou's dormitory. At the same time, he helped He Caitou close the door.
He placed the letters on the bedside table and read through them one by one.
The first ones are letters from Beibei, Xu Sanshi and Tang Ya.
Xu Zihuang has a relatively close relationship with these three people, and they often communicate with each other. However, Jiang Nannan has a relatively reserved personality, and his relationship with him can only be regarded as a teammate who has fought side by side or an ordinary senior student.
Take the initiative to do this kind of thing.
The letters from Beibei and the three of them were more about greeting him about his current situation and describing some of the recent events in the inner courtyard, especially the cultivation progress of brother and sister Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen. Tang Ya, on the other hand, wrote several times in the letter
When he mentioned Ning Tian, he used a half-joking and half-serious tone, telling him not to do anything that would disgrace Ning Tian at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.
Xu Zihuang smiled knowingly, and through the words he could imagine Tang Ya's coquettish look with her small waist.
Next is a letter from Ning Tian. Ning Tian has maintained the frequency of writing him a letter every month. The letter not only shows that he misses him, but also always maintains a certain degree.
Today's letter stated that she was originally planning to come to Mingdu to find him during this holiday, but unfortunately she had entered a critical moment in her cultivation and had to give up the idea. Then she also mentioned the soul guides that Xu Zihuang sent there.
.Finally, it’s a more private topic between the two of them.
Xu Zihuang wrote a reply to this, and then looked at the last letter. The person who wrote this letter turned out to be Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of the inner courtyard.
The letter asked him about some recent cultivation situations and problems he had encountered.
Xu Zihuang frowned slightly. Although the context in Zhang Lexuan's letter was relatively peaceful and gentle, he still keenly read some inexplicable meaning. It seemed to be urgent and vaguely depressed.
He remained silent in front of the table for a long time, then gathered his thoughts and wrote a reply to Zhang Lexuan.
After doing this, he sat cross-legged on the bed and entered a state of meditation.
…
Early the next morning, in a valley fifty kilometers south of Mingdu.
The development of soul guidance technology in the Sun and Moon Empire is indeed rapid, but the development of land is actually limited. This is basically the case in the entire Douluo Continent.
Douluo Continent is so vast. At least for thousands of years, the tone of vast land and sparsely populated areas will not be broken.
Except for a few veins containing rare metals that are continuously being mined around Mingdu, most of the rest of the places maintain their original ecological environment.
Between the two not-so-high mountains is a barrier lake formed by the collapse of a river valley. The dark blue lake surface is glowing with sparkling golden light.
Two figures overlapped under the rising sun, embracing each other by the lake. It was Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi.
Today, Ye Guyi has changed into a close-fitting white garment, highlighting her graceful silhouette. Her plump chest rises and falls slightly, and her long golden hair blows in the wind. The fragrance in her hair mixes with the sweetness in her breath.
Ye Guyi, who was obviously emotional, looked at Xu Zihuang with a smile as he took back his right hand from her clothes, his eyes full of provocation.
"Why, don't you want to continue? If you are willing to speak, I can leave a few days later."
Although the hurdle in Xu Zihuang's heart has gradually been eliminated, he always feels psychologically weak when facing Ye Guyi. On the contrary, when Ye Guyi gets along with Xu Zihuang, he will be on the stronger side.
This is caused by their experiences together in childhood.
Xu Zihuang shook his head sarcastically. Little did he know that Ye Guyi was also pretending to be calm, his body was numb and he couldn't exert much strength.
Ye Guyi stopped teasing and just held one of Xu Zihuang's arms, looking at the clear lake in front of him and watching the golden sun rising in the east.
The emotions of both of them gradually returned to calm.
"When I come back, I will go to Shrek College to find you in a year." Ye Guyi stood on tiptoe and touched Xu Zihuang's lips, and warned in a deep voice.
"When I'm not around, your own safety is the top priority, you know?"
"I understand, Sister Lingyi." Xu Zihuang replied sternly.
"Sister Lingyi, when you break through to level 70, we will go to that place. That soul beast should be very suitable as your seventh soul ring."
Ye Guyi, who had seen Xu Zihuang's memory, certainly knew where Xu Zihuang was referring to, and just nodded silently.
Liehuo Xingjiaoshu, who has cultivated for 100,000 years, is the only soul beast in that place that matches her holy angel martial spirit.
If her Holy Sun Sword could be blessed with the ultimate fire attribute, its lethality would reach an extremely terrifying level.
He didn't ask Xu Zihuang why he was sure to let her absorb a hundred thousand year level soul ring when she was on her seventh soul ring. It was because she had absolute trust in Xu Zihuang.
Immediately, Ye Guyi waved to Nana in the woods in the distance.
The Ming capital is located in the north-central part of the Sun and Moon Empire, with a mainly temperate climate. This forest is a temperate coniferous forest, with a relatively wide view.
Just now, out of curiosity, Nana saw scenes of the two of them interacting intimately several times.
Witnessing this on the spot, she felt a little strange in her body.
Nana's pretty face was covered with red clouds. She came in front of the two of them and lowered her head uncomfortably.
"Master, Mistress."
"Let's go, Nana." Ye Guyi returned to his previous dignified and cold appearance, and took out a thin metal wing from the storage soul guide. The whole body was bright golden. This was made by Xu Zihuang himself.
The six-level flying soul guide uses the latest technology from Mingdetang.
"Yes, Mistress." Nana responded respectfully and took out a level five flying soul guide from the storage soul guide.
The two of them took off one after another. Ye Guyi reluctantly turned around and looked at Xu Zihuang, and then activated the flying soul guide to fly towards the south.
And Xu Zihuang was here watching the two figures disappear into the distant sky.
…
Returning to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, Xu Zihuang began a peaceful life again. He spent the one-month vacation practicing and studying.
But one morning before the start of the new semester, there was a knock on the door of his dormitory.
The knock on the door was urgent and the rhythm was unfamiliar, which made Xu Zihuang understand that the person knocking on the door was definitely not He Caitou or Fan Yu.
He happened to have just finished practicing at this time, got out of bed and opened the door calmly.
"Senior Keke?"
The person standing outside the door is indeed not He Caitou or Fan Yu, but Ke Ke. Although the dormitory building of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy can be entered and exited at will, people like Ke Ke don't care about other bad rumors.
, there are definitely not many female students who take the initiative to find the male dormitory building.
Keke said angrily: "Tianhuang, do you know that these days are the enrollment days for our Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy?"
"Yeah." Xu Zihuang nodded slightly. He knew a little bit about this. The enrollment of Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is similar to that of Shrek Academy. They are all conducted within a period of time before the start of the new semester. However, compared with Shrek Academy,
Over there, the enrollment work of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is even busier. After all, the application requirements for the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy are too low. You only need to reach level ten in soul power and obtain a soul ring before the age of twelve.
In the past few days, the square at the main entrance of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy has been almost crowded with people who want to apply for the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, as well as some accompanying parents and elders.
"Most of the people in charge of admissions are fourth- and fifth-year students, but as a rule, students from Mingde Hall need to send representatives. One is responsible for supervision and review, and the other is to provide some psychological chicken soup to the newly admitted students." Ke Ke
I couldn't help but roll my eyes and complained mercilessly.
"I really don't know what the college is thinking. There's no telling whether those students can successfully advance to the sixth grade, let alone be admitted to Mingde Hall."
As Keke said, the quality of the students at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is indeed not very good. There are many students who enroll every year, but only one in a thousand can advance to the sixth grade.
Hearing this, Xu Zihuang basically guessed the purpose of Keke's visit.
"Senior Keke, you don't mean to say that we are the representatives sent by Mingde Hall, right?"
"We are the only ones who have been admitted to Mingde Hall in the past two years. Zimu has gone home and has not returned to school, so we are the only two left. Although you are an exchange student from Shrek College,
Now you are a part of the academy. Teacher Xuan also nodded, there is no other way, let’s go together.” Ke Ke curled her lips helplessly.
"Fortunately, we don't need to do anything, just sit there and rest."
Thinking that he had been too devoted to cultivation during this period, Xu Zihuang did not refuse. Relaxation would be more conducive to cultivation. What's more, he must give Xuan Ziwen and Ke Ke some face.
After briefly freshening up, Xu Zihuang and Keke came to the main entrance of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. The main entrance was a huge square. The scene in front of them was extremely shocking. There were huge crowds of people and noisy sounds.
A row of fourth- and fifth-grade students wearing the silver-white uniforms of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy sit behind the desk and conduct assessments. The content of the assessment is very simple. Just record the soul power level and martial spirit of the students who applied for the examination. The assessment is up to standard.
You can enter the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy through the exclusive passage.
When the students in charge of the assessment noticed the arrival of Xu Zihuang and Ke Ke, especially when they noticed the badges on their chests representing the Ming De Hall, they all stood up and bowed down to salute humbly.
Many of these students looked several years older than Xu Zihuang and Ke Ke, but they didn't feel anything was wrong. In Douluo Continent, strength is paramount.
If you have strength, you can enjoy the admiration of others. This is the reality.
One of them, a sturdy young man wearing the fifth-grade uniform of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, personally led the two of them to the large sofa in the spare area and sat down. There were various fruits and pastries placed on the table in front of the sofa.
, a huge parasol blocked the direct sunlight.
"Hello, seniors and seniors, my name is Yun Luo. If you need anything else, you can ask me at any time." Yun Luo smiled flatteringly.
The students of Mingde Hall were usually busy studying soul guides and rarely showed up. So even if he saw Xu Zihuang's face was a bit unfamiliar, he didn't think much about it. The only thing that made him a little concerned was that Xu Zihuang's age seemed real.
It's too small. But the Mingdetang emblem on the chest is clearly there, so naturally I don't dare to neglect it.
He had put so much effort into preparing all this, didn't he just want to make good friends with the students at Mingde Hall? Now was an excellent opportunity.
"You're interested." Ke Ke waved her hands angrily, then sat down on the soft sofa.
"These are what I should do."
Yun Luo looked excited, but he did not continue to disturb Xu Zihuang and the other two. Instead, he returned to his seat very wisely and continued to preside over the assessment work. The other students around him who were presiding over the assessment work rolled their eyes and secretly felt in their hearts.
I scolded him, but I had to admit that this guy really had a way of flattering me.
As soon as Xu Zihuang sat down, he saw Keke taking out a small metal ball. Soul power was injected into it, and a layer of light film instantly enveloped the space, blocking out the sounds from outside.
"It's finally quiet." Keke stretched lazily and said with a smile.
Xu Zihuang leaned back on the sofa, pulled his neck and smiled: "Senior Keke, it doesn't seem like it's really a big deal. It's just a good time to observe the more typical martial spirits of you people from the Sun and Moon Empire."
But Ke Ke suddenly stopped the smile on her face and looked sideways at Xu Zihuang beside her.
"You know, there's a letter from Sister Orange."
Xu Zihuang remained silent.
Looking at Xu Zihuang's calm expression, Keke couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"You stinky guy rejects me, I'll forget it. Even Sister Orange, you don't--"
However, before she could finish speaking, a girl who looked to be only about eleven years old instantly caught her and Xu Zihuang's eyes.
The girl's eyes are dark blue, as moving as the depths of the ocean, deep and cold. Her silver-white hair is slightly curly, and despite her young age, she actually looks noble. Her delicate facial features are like
Like a porcelain doll, it seems that the beautiful bells and spirits of this world have gathered together.
Ignoring the obstruction of the students from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy who were responsible for maintaining order, she stepped into the light film of the soundproof soul guide.
"You are -" Ke Ke opened her mouth subconsciously. She thought to herself that her appearance was not bad, but compared with the girl in front of her, the gap between Yinghuo and Haoyue was simply the difference between Yinghuo and Haoyue. Even Orange was inferior to this
A white-haired girl.
The girl's cold eyes swept over Ke Ke's body, and finally fell on Xu Zihuang. The disgust in her dark blue eyes dissipated a lot.
Finally she found a human with a clean body.
A biting chill came over her, snowflakes swirled around her body, and two bright yellow soul rings emerged from under her feet.
The clear and ethereal sound sounded in this space like a clear spring flowing.
"I am a new student applying for the exam. Can I pass?"
