When the morning sun comes up, the branches and leaves on the tall and strong trees divide the warm sunrise into fine golden spots.
Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian were walking on the bluestone floor steps in the mountains and forests. When they raised their heads, they could see the flat and empty training platform on the top of the hill not far away.
There was still plenty of time, so the two of them were in no hurry to rush there.
Ning Tian leaned on Xu Zihuang, with a charming smile on her pretty face. With hazy eyes, she stretched out her jade hand and raised it to her head. The mottled light and shadow slipped through the gaps between her slender jade fingers and fell on her beautiful face.
superior.
For ordinary people, this is a game they have played in childhood. But she, who has shouldered the important task of inheriting the position of sect leader since she was born, has tried this for the first time. Of course, the most important thing is that she is attracted by it.
people by your side.
"This is a bit unlike you." Xu Zihuang led Ning Tian and slowed down.
Ning Tian looked sideways at Xu Zihuang and said with a smile: "Aren't all girls like this? Senior Sister Xiaoya is right. I have suppressed myself too much since I was a child and lost a lot of my girlish nature. I occasionally
I also get jealous and want to act coquettishly in front of the people I like."
"Is this all what Senior Sister Xiaoya taught you?" Xu Zihuang responded with a smile, his tone gentle but firm.
"Actually, what Senior Sister Xiaoya said is indeed true. With me by your side in the future, you don't have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect alone like before. Just be yourself."
Hearing Xu Zihuang's words, although the smile on Ning Tian's face did not diminish, his nose felt sour, and his aqua blue eyes couldn't help but be covered with a layer of mist.
Being herself, something so common and natural, was a luxury for her before.
It wasn't until she met Yu Tianhuang that her boring and monotonous life became colorful.
Ning Tian stopped and hugged Xu Zihuang tightly with affection in his eyes, then closed his eyes and stood on tiptoes.
The sound of cicadas chirping and birds chirping echoed in the woods, and at the same time there was the sound of two people breathing together.
After a long time, the two of them continued to walk towards the training ground. But this time they were closer to each other.
Ning Tian's red lips and jade neck made a swallowing motion, swallowing the saliva that had absorbed Xu Zihuang's breath. But then she noticed Xu Zihuang's weird expression, and her cheeks were also slightly hot.
In the past, she would do it afterward to reflect on it, but today she was moved by affection and couldn't help but do it in front of Xu Zihuang.
However, the children of the big family are the children of the big family after all. Although they are shy and unbearable in their hearts, they still look dignified and graceful on the surface.
"Tianhuang, since you have allowed me to be myself, I admit that I care a little about what you told Senior Brother Xu before about the senior students I met at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy."
Naturally, Xu Zihuang would not deliberately undermine Ning Tian, so he smiled and took the initiative to tell him about Orange and Keke.
"Those two seniors are called Orange and Keke. They are students taught by my mentor at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy..."
Ning Tian listened thoughtfully and silently, his shy mood gradually dissipating.
With the two deliberately slowing down, it was already half an hour later when they arrived at the training ground.
There were a total of seven people on the training field. Wu Feng, Xiao Xiao, Nanmen Yun'er, Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue were the five newly promoted inner court disciples, as well as an inner court teacher and an inner court assistant.
The teacher in the inner courtyard is Wang Yan, and the assistant teacher is a female student in the inner courtyard who looks to be twenty-seven or eight years old. This female student's figure is similar to that of Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister in the inner courtyard, but her face is thinner.
, his eyes are as black as paint, the expression on his face is very soft, his appearance is not stunningly beautiful, and he is the kind of person who is more attractive.
Xu Zihuang also knew something about this female student from the inner courtyard.
Her name is Han Ruoruo, and she is the only Contra-level expert among the students in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy. She is above Zhang Lexuan in terms of qualifications and age, but is slightly inferior in cultivation. From usual times, she and Zhang Lexuan
When getting along, she calls each other directly by name, which is enough to confirm her status in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy.
Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo stood next to the training ground, occasionally looking at each other, and the smiles on both sides would be fuller. It was obvious that they got along very well.
Xiao Xiao, Wu Feng and Xie Huanyue were also beside Wang Yan and the other two, while the remaining Dai Huabin and Nanmen Yun'er were in the center of the training ground, looking like they were preparing for a spirit battle.
"Teacher Wang, long time no see, how are you lately?" Xu Zihuang waved to Wang Yan from a distance and nodded to Han Ruoruo.
"Hello, Senior Sister Han."
The conversation with Han Ruoruo was suddenly interrupted by Xu Zihuang's voice. The expression on Wang Yan's face was a little embarrassed. After all, the purpose of his contact with Han Ruoruo was not pure.
However, after this brief moment of embarrassment, the expression on his face was instantly replaced by surprise.
"Tianhuang?! I heard Mr. Xuan say that you are practicing in seclusion, aren't you? Why are you here?"
Being able to teach an outstanding student like Yu Tianhuang is what he is most proud of in his life. And with the experience of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, the relationship between the two has always been harmonious.
.
"Cultivation just ended this morning. I heard from Ning Tian that you are going to give them guidance and teaching today, so let's come over and take a look." Xu Zihuang responded.
"Teacher Wang, do you mind if I come over to listen?"
Wang Yan laughed and scolded: "How come? Come here first, just to test your boy's cultivation progress in the past few years."
As they spoke, Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian had already arrived in front of Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo. Ning Tian also bowed slightly to Wang Yan and Han Ruoruo.
After so many consecutive tutorials, Han Ruoruo and Ning Tian were very familiar with each other, and her eyes mostly stayed on Xu Zihuang.
"I heard from Le Xuan that your talent is even higher than hers. You were appointed by Mr. Mu as the successor to Poseidon Pavilion, so I'm very curious about you." Han Ruoruo smiled gently.
"After Yoona and Hua Bin finish their competition, why don't you go up and give it a try?"
Xu Zihuang smiled calmly and said: "Senior Sister Han has said so, so I have no reason to refuse."
Han Ruoruo turned to Wang Yan, who nodded towards her. There was an extremely tacit understanding in every move.
Wu Feng stood obediently behind Ning Tian, lowering his head and changing his bad temper. With Ning Tian's warning, no matter how much disgust and resentment she had towards Yu Tianhuang, she would not dare to
Show it.
On the other side of the witch wind is the evil moon.
Several years have passed, and Xie Huanyue's figure has grown taller, and his appearance has also changed a lot. However, his so-called tall figure is completely developing towards a spherical shape.
Xie Huanyue showed a kind smile to Xu Zihuang.
There was never any bad blood between the two of them.
Xu Zihuang responded with the same gesture and said hello to Xiao Xiao.
"Xiao Xiao, it seems that you should be the first one besides me in our class to be admitted to the inner courtyard."
Xiao Xiao shyly avoided Xu Zihuang's gaze and spoke in a soft voice.
"Actually, I was admitted to the inner courtyard only half a year ago."
As the two grew older and had no contact for a long time, Xiao Xiao originally thought that her vague affection for Yu Tianhuang would gradually dissipate, but it turned out that she had taken it for granted. Such an excellent and perfect Yu Tianhuang, for someone of the same age,
The attraction of the opposite sex is unimaginable.
At least, she couldn't remain calm when facing Yu Tianhuang.
Looking at Ning Tian who was behaving intimately with Yu Tianhuang, a ridiculous idea even came to her mind. If she had mustered up the courage, would she be the one standing next to Yu Tianhuang?
Nanmen Yun'er in the center of the venue also showed a gentle smile towards Xu Zihuang. Compared to Xiao Xiao, she looked much more generous.
As for Dai Huabin, although the expression on his face is still a bit cold, he has already calmed down and his eyes are burning with fighting spirit. He knows that he is not Yu Tianhuang's opponent yet, but he wants to know the relationship between the two.
the real difference.
Ning Tian hugged Xu Zihuang's arms around his chest without hesitation, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Xiao's strange behavior. Xiao Xiao, who had twin martial souls, could indeed make her feel threatened.
Not long after, everyone's eyes focused on the center of the training ground again.
Wang Yan watched Nanmen Yun'er and Dai Huabin take up their positions and shouted loudly: "Get ready! Although it is just a competition, I still hope that you will show your abilities as much as possible so that I can guide you. The others are me and
Ruoruo looks at it.”
Xie Huanyue narrowed her eyes and said mysteriously: "Just watch, Dai Huabin will definitely suffer a big loss this time."
"Huh?" Hearing Xie Huanyue's words, not only others, but also Xu Zihuang were a little surprised.
Among the students admitted to the inner academy this year, Dai Huabin's soul power level and overall strength should be second only to him.
Ning Tian knowingly explained to Xu Zihuang in a low voice: "Yooner behaved very low-key when she was in the outer courtyard. I only heard that her martial spirit had mutated and she was promoted to a core disciple. It took nearly half a month before she was admitted to the inner courtyard.
I haven't seen her actually take action on the matter."
"start!"
Before Ning Tian finished speaking, Wang Yan had already waved his right hand.
I don't know if it was because Xu Zihuang's arrival aroused the fighting spirit in Dai Huabin's heart. At this time, his mood was particularly high. His fists collided in front of his chest, and his bones crackled.
The White Tiger Martial Spirit completed its possession in an instant. Two yellow, two purple, and one black, five best-matched spirit rings emerged along with the pale spirit power. White hair crazily emerged from his body, releasing
The White Tiger Spirit is so powerful and domineering as the king of beasts.
The hair all over his body suddenly emitted a strong golden light, and his whole body swelled up again, and his whole body's aura surged. Immediately afterwards, a layer of white halo also enveloped his body.
From the beginning, Dai Huabin directly used his two major amplification soul skills: White Tiger Body Barrier and White Tiger Vajra Transformation.
"Roar!" Amidst the tiger's roar, Dai Huabin strode forward suddenly. The idea that strong attack type soul masters should restrain agility attack type soul masters has been around for a long time. His plan was to forcefully suppress Nanmen Yun'er.
At the same time, Nanmen Yun'er also moved. Her body was as light as if she was not stressed, and turned into a green afterimage to meet Dai Huabin. The speed was so fast that Ning Tian, Xiao Xiao and others could not see it.
Clear her figure.
You can only vaguely see the light and shadow of the five soul rings next to Nanmen Yun'er, two yellow, two purple and one black.
So fast!
He has such amazing speed even though he hasn't used any soul skills yet.
But Xu Zihuang relied on the ability of the Golden Child Martial Spirit to capture Nanmen Yun'er's figure.
Behind Nanmen Yuner, a pair of green wings appeared. But compared to the way he remembered Nanmen Yuner releasing his martial spirit, only one other thing had changed about Nanmen Yuner now.
.
Those were her eyelids. The upper and lower eyelids on both sides of her dark green eyes turned bright gold, which was extremely magical.
At the same time, something happened to Xu Zihuang's second martial spirit, and a wave of disgust and disdain stemming from his bloodline and martial spirit emerged in his heart.
"This is……"
"Emerald Demon Bird? Yun'er's martial spirit turned out to be the Emerald Demon Bird? No wonder Mr. Song valued her so much." Han Ruoruo, who suddenly understood, answered the question. The Emerald Demon Bird is a particularly rare and ferocious spirit beast.
Back then, when she and Zhang Lexuan led the inner court disciples to go deep into the Star Forest to obtain soul rings, they encountered an emerald demon bird with a thousand years of cultivation.
She won't admit it.
The emerald demon bird's cultivation level at the beginning was only three thousand years old, but it caused them a lot of trouble. It was because this kind of spirit beast was too fast and could fly.
"What?! The Emerald Demonic Bird?!" Wang Yan was even more horrified. He had never seen this kind of Emerald Demonic Bird with his own eyes like Han Ruoruo, but he had read about it from the ancient books in the Schlaike Library.
Records of the Emerald Demon Bird.
Due to his cultivation level, he could not fully see the changes in Nanmen Yun'er's martial soul release, so he could not recognize it at the first time.
The Emerald Demon Bird is one of the cruelest species among bird spirit beasts. Their growth depends on sucking the brains of various creatures. Whether they are spirit beasts or humans, they are their targets. They have explosive speed when flying over short distances.
No flying spirit beast can match it.
According to legend, in ancient times, the Emerald Demon Bird caused a huge disaster. At that time, they were still gregarious soul-like beasts, and they would often fly over an area, sucking out the brains of all creatures in that area.
Later, it was said that an Emerald Demon Bird King even sucked the brains of a real dragon, and eventually evolved into the most terrifying killer of that era. At that time, the dragon tribe still ruled the continent. When the real dragon was killed, the furious dragon tribe concentrated its power on the Emerald Demon.
The bird family launched a crazy revenge and almost wiped out their species.
As a result, in today's world, although soul beasts like the Emerald Demon Bird still have inheritance, their existence is probably even rarer than the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. And because they are so hated by those powerful soul beasts, the existing Emerald Demon Bird is basically very rare.
Don't dare to show your head.
Ning Tian, Xiao Xiao, and Wu Feng also had strange expressions on their faces. The name of this vicious bird, the Emerald Demon Bird, is really too loud. Even now, there are still legends about the Emerald Demon Bird.
Only Xie Huanyue, who was in the same class as Nanmen Yuner and had known her beforehand, seemed calmer.
He had competed with Nanmen Yun'er in the outer courtyard's upgrade assessment, and the result was that even the powerful defense of his skin-like martial spirit could not stop the extreme sharpness of Nanmen Yun'er's martial spirit.
