In the early morning, the warm sunlight hits the curtains, waking everyone up with surprise and anticipation. Last night was a town in the middle of the night, and many people didn't see the scene they wanted to see. The mysterious town of twilight gave them a different kind of attraction, and they walked to the hallway in front of the dormitory door and looked at the black and white mountainside.

The hallway was full of people, all looking at each other with a hint of goodwill. The people who can come here, no matter what strength they show, deserve each other's respect and should not be underestimated. Everyone looked neatly into the distance, looked at it for a long time, and let out a few sighs, which surprised Ah Candle, who was about to go downstairs.

"It's an academy, it's full of surprises. ”

"The foothills are far from the top of the mountain, and you can ignore the rules, but the mountainside is different, it is very close to the top of the mountain, and you must stand low. This is also the reason why we can only look up from the low and not see the low from the high. ”

"Yes, on the mountainside, we can raise our heads to find our goals and show respect to the top of the mountain. You can also look down at yourself, but you can't stand on a high place and look down, because your position is very low, too short to take the whole town into your eyes in this way. ”

Standing at the top of the stairs, Ah Candle scratched her head, what are these people talking about? Why can't she understand a word? What is a high place and a low place, standing in a high place, she can naturally see the low place clearly.

"What do you mean?"

Ah Candle asked faintly, causing the three people on the side of the corridor to turn around. Among the three, a woman as gentle as water was wearing a long dress and replied in a gentle and sweet voice.

"For example, we're on the mountainside, on the third floor of this building. At the foot of the hill is the first floor, at the top of the hill is the fifth floor, and we are now standing on the third floor, and we can see the first and third floors, and we can also see the fifth floor. But because we didn't go up to the fifth floor, we couldn't see what we could see on the fifth floor. As we stand here now, there is only a fog when we look at the town. Only the peach groves and meadows in the distance are clear. ”

This woman is Xie Ting, because of her gentle and easy-going nature, she is very liked. She was a rare female cultivator in the southern royal family, and she showed extraordinary talent, and her words were fluent at this time, which made the two men around her fall in love. But Ah Candle walked to her place, looked at the town in the distance, and said with some doubts:

"It's clear. ”

A faint sentence shattered the confidence of the three of them. They have all just arrived at the Venerable Realm, and Ah Candle has not yet condensed the seeds. With such strength, walking up the mountainside in advance and being recognized by the dean, not to mention, it is incredible that you can still stand at this angle and see the panoramic view of the town!

Xie Yi looked at Ah Candle, her eyes were like a stream flowing in the deep mountains, clear and you could see the bottom of the river. In this way, she doesn't look like she can lie and force her status. And when her eyes were clouded with vitality, everything became blurry again.

"It's so strange, I can't see it when I use it. ”

It stands to reason that only by using the vitality can the body function be improved. But as soon as Ah Candle used his vitality, his original abilities disappeared. A candle statue came from another world, descended in the remote place of the great wilderness, because of its own nobility, looking at this world like a child. can have the power of a child, but not as good as him.

Rubbing his eyes, Ah Zhu couldn't understand the profound truth, so he said goodbye to Xie Ting and them, turned around and ran towards the first floor. She was going to tell Xia Xiao what her master had said last night, and then pull him to dinner. Looking at her happy figure, Xie Ting and more people around her shook their heads secretly. I really don't know if Ah Candle has been like this since the beginning, or if he only has this ability now. She can be said to have more mysteries than Xia Xiao, which is difficult to solve.

When Ah Candle arrived on the first floor, Xia Xiao had disappeared. He and Xiaoran were not in the room, so Ling Ah Candle scratched his head and ran to the cafeteria. There was no trace of Xia Xiao in the cafeteria, but the shrimp and chicken-stuffed buns took her hand and comforted her slightly lost heart.

Early this morning, when Ah Candle was still lying in bed, Xia Xiao had already gotten up. He went to look at Qin Feng and Mu Lin, they were still asleep, and it was estimated that they would not be able to get up until noon. When everyone was surprised by the tranquility and beauty of the town and the warm morning sun, Xia Xiao pulled Xiaoran to practice.

Whether there is a task or not, it can be cultivated. The town is more than the foothills, and it is very wide, so Xia Xiao and Xiaoran practice separately. It was Xia Xiao who made this kind of suggestion, when the two of them were together, they always liked to consider the feelings of others, and it would be a great delay in time, so they practiced separately, but it was better.

Xiaoran did not refuse, what Xia Xiao said made sense. Because of the influence of the innate bloodline, the closer one is to the strength of the innate bloodline, the more difficult it is to cultivate. For example, Xiao Ran, the bloodline of her race is the seventh order, and now that her strength is at the fifth order, it is already very difficult to cultivate, and it takes more time.

And some of the people who walked up the mountainside also began to practice today because of their own contract beasts. Who can get to this point without a little self-knowledge? The cultivator's cultivation speed will be limited by the innate bloodline of the contract beast. Among the one hundred and thirteen people who walked up the mountainside, the lowest level of the contract beast was the fourth order, such as Qin Feng and Mu Lin.

The fourth order of the desolate beast corresponds to the young age of human cultivation, and when Qin Feng and Mu Lin break through the shackles and arrive at the Venerable Realm, their cultivation will become difficult. If their contract beasts are not sane, it is even more difficult to provide any continuous help to the spirit contract subject. Therefore, entering the fruit is like ascending to the sky. But this is the academy, and things that are difficult for outsiders to understand abound here! But the premise of everything is to work hard enough.

Regardless of Xia Xiao's previous world or the Great Wilderness, this simple word has been mentioned by people of all shapes and shapes. But real effort is based on efficient time, not on the usefulness of whoever talks more. It is not always possible to accumulate time and quantity.

Xia Xiao hadn't come to this road in the pine forest for a long time, and when he thought about it, he was helpless. His path to the top of the mountain was with Shu Shuang, but the latter's path was cut off. At that time, he and his predecessors thought that Shu Shuang would stop when he walked here, but he didn't expect to pass away.

Sitting on a large stone brick, this is the place where the Shushuang Mountain Road is broken, Xia Xiao is practicing here, absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth. The vitality in the metal crown is all gold, and it is not a way to absorb it for a long time. And the golden spirit beast didn't cooperate, it was useless for him to absorb so much, so he returned to his old profession and practiced in the most simple way.

There is no one here, except for Ah Candle, no one will find Xia Xiao here. She could see that the way up the mountain was also here. Ah Candle had long forgotten about this matter, and her strength made her not think about going to the top of the mountain, but concentrating on her cultivation.

Practicing alone until noon, Xia Xiao felt a little hungry, and was just about to get up, when rice balls and water were placed under the tree on one side. At first glance, these were sent by Xiaoran. Xia Xiao was on her own road, she couldn't see it, but she roughly knew the direction, so she left these things. When Xia Xiao finished eating it, he began to practice again, and did not return home until late at night.

Xiao Ran also went back very late, and the morning and evening had the miraculous effect of her cultivation. Their communication was simple and unpretentious, they did not say anything without saying anything, and they rested in their rooms, and the same was true on the second day.

The simple life lasted for three days, although it didn't have much taste, but Xia Xiao liked it very much. It is his greatest wish to live quietly and quietly, and he does not dare to ask for anything else.

The vigor that he liked when he was young, Xia Xiao is not so yearning for it now, at least he will not take the initiative to participate. Every fierce battle has the potential to cost him something. His Shu Shuang and his right hand were both taken away in a catastrophic battle, and he doesn't know what he will lose next time.

Ah Candle left a note for Xia Xiao, but the real meeting was on the fourth day, when they went to find Hu Bu again. The latter formulated a more detailed cultivation plan for the three of them, which made Xiaoran surprised and happy.

Hu Bugui has no reason to care about Xiaoran's affairs, the latter can stay in the academy because of Xia Xiao. It can also be said that the academy gives Xia Xiao a lot of face, and it is good to leave her, so there is no need to worry about it. But as a teacher, no one would mind caring for one more child. Therefore, Hu Bugui unconditionally extended a helping hand.

In Hu Bugui's plan, Xia Xiao and the three of them will carry out extremely simple cultivation in the next six months, and conduct a test every half a month to test the speed and adjustment of progress. If progress is too slow, there will be punishments, and vice versa. There are various punishments and rewards, this is a mechanism specially formulated by Hu Bugui for them, and the original intention is to urge them to practice. And the standard of judgment depends on the different circumstances of each of them.

After explaining their spiritual plan to the trio, Hu Bu said:

"The first month and a half can be a bit stressful, but you have to get it done. The amount of practice is not huge, at least it is something that you can complete every day. Ah Candle, don't be bitter, as long as you follow the plan I made for you, you won't worry about it for the next month and a half. ”

Ah Candle frowned and nodded. But when she thought that she had to practice every day, she would be found out if she was lazy, and she couldn't be happy. But then I think about it, she came to the academy to practice herself, so let's cultivate hard! As long as she doesn't cultivate to death, she will cultivate to death!

"Go back, start practicing as planned today, and we'll see you in half a month!"

After Hu Bugui finished speaking, the three of them turned around and left. It's been an hour today, and they have to hurry! They all want to have some time for themselves, provided they get the task done.

Practicing all day is actually not difficult and harsh, Xia Xiao and Xiaoran often do this, but for half a month, or even longer, they must ensure daily rest, otherwise their cultivation will be counterproductive.

Xia Xiao went to the familiar uphill road, and Xiao Ran and Ah Candle went to the peach forest. This kind of life is going on day by day, which makes Xia Xiao very fulfilling, and even a little deeply trapped in it. His unhappiness became less and less, and it seemed that Shushuang had never come to him or left. He only thought of him in the evening after a certain meal, then he would hold a book, pour a glass of water, and sit on the bed and see him dozing off and sleepy.

When you want to sleep, you can extinguish the candle, close the book, and lie down. Early tomorrow morning, waiting for the sunlight to shine into the room, Xia Xiao will rise again.
