The small forest is not far from the arena. With the speed of these sect disciples, in a few breaths, a team of nearly a thousand people entered in a mighty manner. At the same time, dozens of Liuyun Sect deacons also followed. He went into the woods and took charge of supervision.
"Wang Yue, what are you busy with?" Outside the woods, Shen Chen pulled Wang Yue out and said speechlessly. As soon as the latter came in, he couldn't wait to rush in.
"Brother, I only need two hundred red sandalwood cards. Look at so many people. If we arrive late, we won't be able to drink the soup." Wang Yue turned his head, with an anxious look on his face. He, like many other disciples, was worried. It is unwilling to fall behind others.
However, Wang Yue also soon noticed something strange around him. It seemed that... not only his elder brother Shen Chen was calm and calm, but near them, a dozen familiar faces were also wandering around lazily, with no intention of following the large army deep into the woods. The meaning of Chu Chong.
Some people even leaned against the big tree with their eyes closed and meditated. It didn't look like they were conducting an assessment where you were fighting against each other.
Wang Yue noticed that these dozen or twenty people, without exception, were all relatively high-ranking inner disciples. Among them were Zhong Ling, Yuan Xiao, Fang Han and others.
"Brother, what are they..." The scene in front of him made Wang Yue suddenly think of something, but he was still not sure and looked at Shen Chen.
"Haha, don't you know? In this world, the weak always serve the strong."
Shen Chen quickly found a piece of grass nearby and lay down, smiling casually, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.
"Oh, I see, these people are all waiting to rob..." Wang Yue suddenly realized, but he swallowed it back halfway.
As the saying goes, shooting the first bird, since no one is exposing this matter at the moment, he doesn't want to attract hatred for himself.
Wang Yue approached Shen Chen with a piece of grass in his mouth, and then lowered his voice and said with some doubts on his face: "Brother, do we want to be like them and enjoy the fruits of others' hard work?"
"Well," Shen Chen opened one eye and nodded, "If you want to be a saint but can't do it, it's still too late, so hurry up and rush in."
"Hehe, look at what you said, brother, we are not gentlemen, and we don't want to be good people. We can get something for nothing, and it's too late to die." Wang Yue scratched his head and laughed dryly.
"Well, you can teach me. Wang Yue, you must always remember one thing. If you want to live a more comfortable life, don't worry about too many constraints."
Shen Chen casually taught Wang Yue a lesson. This boy's grandfather and sister are both kind-hearted and good people. It's okay to stay in a small ravine all his life, but if he wants to go out and make a living, that's fine. You are bound to suffer a loss.
Shen Chen didn't want Wang Yue to regret it in the future, so for a long time from now on, he wouldn't mind playing the bad guy and teaching Wang Yue by words and deeds.
"Gee, Junior Brother Shen Chen's words make sense. It seems that in the future, the dragon will fly to the nine heavens."
At this time, Zhong Ling walked over with a silvery chuckle, her waist twisted like a water snake, her already sizable chest was trembling slightly, and every move she made exuded a seductive aura.
Behind her, seven or eight inner sect disciples also followed. This beautiful little goblin never lacked followers wherever she went. Even Yuan Xiao, who ranked third in the inner sect, bowed to her. Under the pomegranate skirt.
"Senior Sister Zhong Ling was joking. I've always been good at fooling this guy, so it's nothing." Shen Chen propped himself up from the grass, leaned back slightly, and happened to be leaning on the waist of a big tree. , staring calmly at the beauty that charms all living beings.
To be honest, Shen Chen really didn't want to deal with this little goblin who caused trouble for him when they first met. Beauty was not just a matter of words, especially a girl with such an attractive appearance as Zhong Ling, who always caused trouble wherever she went.
However, Shen Chen also didn't like being watched by a group of people while he was sleeping. As soon as the little goblin came, half of the inner disciples who were waiting to snatch the red sandalwood tablets slowly gathered around him. No matter how calm Shen Chen was, he was still a little nervous. Can't sit still anymore.
"My master told me last night that if it hadn't been for the accident three months ago, she would have chosen you as her second direct disciple," Zhong Ling's eyes were like autumn water, and he raised the corner of his mouth playfully: "Tsk, tsk, you are really jealous. , when the master decided to accept me, I was already at the sixth level of the Blood Fusion Realm, and I didn’t have the blessings you have."
"Ahem... That was all Elder Situ's wrong love. I was just lucky." Shen Chen touched his nose, coughed and laughed a few times. From the little goblin's tone, he could clearly hear some jealousy. .
The experience of two lifetimes told Shen Chen that if a woman is jealous of a man, she will be in trouble, and if a woman is jealous of a woman, she will be killed.
Shen Chen was also a little surprised that such a girl who was like a beauty in the world would care so much about her master...
However, Zhong Ling obviously did not intend to let Shen Chen go. The smile on his eyebrows became even bigger. He stared at Shen Chen and joked: "The master also told me about the bet between the sect leader and the two elders. In theory, you two want to To get two top five places, you have to squeeze at least one person from the top four. So, you are ready to fight me?"
Shen Chen also didn't expect that Zhong Ling would suddenly ask such a pointed question, but there were some things that he couldn't escape after all. He nodded and said: "Well, there is nothing we can do about it. In order not to lose his cultivation, Wang Yue I must fight you!"
"What about you?" Zhong Ling was very unconvinced. Shen Chen's words clearly didn't take her to heart.
"Ahem... There's no need for that. Elder Situ has been kind to me. I really don't want to fight with you, Senior Sister Zhong Ling..." Shen Chen coughed dryly. This was something he had already thought about. He wanted to get the top five spots. You have to grab it from the top three people.
It's not that Shen Chen cares about her, but that the little goblin, as Situ Ya's precious direct disciple, would be too much of a blow if she was defeated once by herself and then again by Wang Yue.
And when he thought about how many times Situ Ya had come out to protect him and not hesitate to give him his unique body skills, Shen Chen couldn't bear to do this. This was the main reason why he said he wanted to take action on Yuan Xiao that day.
In the eyes of others, what Shen Chen said that day might be a bit arrogant, but in fact, Shen Chen also had his own ideas.
However, it was obviously impossible for Zhong Ling to know Shen Chen's intentions. When she heard Shen Chen's words, she just thought that this guy was looking down on her. She immediately snorted coldly and said with a little anger on her pretty face: "Stop talking nonsense, I I have already told my master that I will be the first to defeat you in the competition!"
"But I have decided to challenge Yuan Xiao in the first round," Shen Chen rolled his eyes helplessly. This little goblin seemed determined to confront him, but he couldn't do anything to her, lest Situ It's hard to explain to Ya.
"Hmph! Don't worry, you ignorant boy, I won't hold back later. I will definitely make you unable to get out of bed for three months!" Yuan Xiao was also on the side, and he heard Shen Chen's understatement of saying yes. Challenge him, his face immediately darkened, and he snorted coldly.
If Elder Situ Chuan hadn't stipulated that no private fights in the woods had anything to do with fighting for wooden signs, he would have taken action long ago.
"Well, I'll see you in the ring!" Shen Chen glanced sideways at him and responded coldly.
"Then let's wait until your first round is over before we start again!" On the side, Zhong Ling still refused to give up, looking at Shen Chen and waving his fist: "But... I can only say, I hope you can hold on. Come down, I will not take action against my fellow student who is seriously injured."
Shen Chen is not favored by Zhong Ling, which is actually not surprising at all. Zhong Ling knows better than anyone how powerful Yuan Xiao is. Although this guy is annoying, his strength is indeed outstanding, otherwise Zhong Ling would not be ranked behind him, ranking fourth. .
As for his master's praise for Shen Chen, Zhong Ling didn't listen at all, but in Zhong Ling's view, there were some things that couldn't be changed by outstanding talent. The huge gap in cultivation had already made this battle insignificant. So much suspense...
On the other side, Shen Chen didn't know that he had been given up long ago. He didn't care what Zhong Ling said. He shook his finger and said, "You must defeat Wang Yue first."
"Are you going to fight me?" Upon hearing what Shen Chen said, Zhong Lington immediately pointed his finger at Wang Yue who was standing aside, with an angry look on his pretty face and a few seductive rays of light in his eyes.
Wang Yue is not Shen Chen. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old. How can he withstand this kind of charming gaze?
"Senior Sister Zhong Ling, I...I...I just want to get into the top five rankings..." Wang Yue's face turned red, he even lost the confidence in his voice and did not dare to look at the little goblin Zhong Ling.
"You kid, don't say you know me from now on. Aren't you just trying to win the top five spots? There's nothing shameful about it. You sound like a thief." On the side, Shen Chen's old face was embarrassed, angry and funny at the same time. The boy is too incompetent. He will be thrown into chaos after just one look at this little goblin Zhong Ling. No, we have to find an opportunity as soon as possible to let him have a taste of women...
Just when Shen Chen was distracted, suddenly, a disdainful sneer came from behind.
"Don't worry, not only him, but also Shen Chen's desire to get a top five spot will soon become a luxury!"
The sneer was obviously mixed with unkindness. When Shen Chen turned around, a young man wearing armor and carrying two huge meteor hammers was walking towards him.
"Iron Hammer Cao? I thought this guy wouldn't be able to come back. I haven't seen him before."
"How is it possible? Cao Shun has always been brooding about his defeat at the hands of Senior Brother Li Xuan. Now that he has finally reached the fifth place, how can he be willing to give it up so easily?"
"Yes, I also heard that Cao Shun originally came back to challenge Senior Brother Lin Hai, but Senior Brother Lin Hai is dead and he has been promoted to fifth place as he wished. In this competition, he will definitely defend this position to the death."
Seeing the appearance of the young man, many inner disciples were moved. Iron Hammer Cao - Cao Shun, became famous very early among the inner disciples. He was the first senior disciple of his generation to achieve the fifth rank. However, after being defeated by Li Xuan, the sword chasing the wind, he left the sect in shame and anger and went down the mountain to practice.
Previously, there was news that Cao Shun would return to the sect competition. Some of the older disciples among the inner sect disciples immediately guessed the purpose of Cao Shun's return——
Obviously, Cao Shun wants to regain the glory that belonged to him back then.
"Is he Cao Shun?" Seeing the man in his twenties appearing, Shen Chen couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Yuan Xiao's previous methods had already allowed him to see the power of these disciples who had come back from the mountain for training. This Cao Shun was The appearance gave Shen Chen a very extraordinary feeling.
Intuition told Shen Chen that this Cao Shun was like a tiger that had experienced thousands of fights. When he came back a few years later, he might be even more dangerous than the dead Lin Hai.
Immediately, Shen Chen did not choose to argue with him, but whispered to Wang Yue beside him: "Be careful with this person. Apart from Zhong Ling, he may be a strong enemy of yours!"
"Yeah!" Wang Yue nodded heavily. The blood on Cao Shun's body also made him a little frightened.
However, the matter was not over yet. Immediately afterwards, another inner disciple rushed into the crowd.
However, that man was not here to cause trouble, but to spread a message for others. When he saw Shen Chen, he ran over directly and said calmly: "Shen Chen, Senior Brother Li Xuan asked me to tell you that he will choose you later. As your opponent, Lin Hai was killed by you, and Senior Brother Li Xuan is ready to avenge his shame by defeating you!"
"Chen Chen, I have something to say hello to you first. My brother Tian Zhan is also back. He heard about your achievements and wanted to meet you for a while!" After the visitor finished speaking, there was another person behind Zhong Ling. An inner disciple stood up with pride on his face.
