Until lunchtime, four groups of competitions had been completed, the winners were Crane Wushuang, Tang Bao, Yueling'er and Tang Lanyu, and the losers were Tang Gui, Wolf Guo, Tang Hua and Toad Xin, and finally Xu Hui and Ming Shiyu were left.

Listening to the commotion outside, Songhuang didn't like to join in the fun, so he continued to eat his own, but the little guy couldn't sit still, he was ready to move, and wanted to go out to see what was going on, Songhuang said: "You can go if you want to, but you can't leave the house too far." ”

The crowd cheered, threw down the tin box and ran out.

When I got outside, I felt a sense of relief, and when I looked up, I saw many people standing on the roof terrace, looking in the same direction, just like when they first entered the Iron Tree Hall.

After a while, Songhuang saw them walking back one by one, but he didn't see Xuhui, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Sima Shuo said: "I can't go up to the roof, I can't see what's going on. ”

Tang Hua said enviously: "Only the sycophants go up, so only he can see what happens." ”

Xuhui often bragged about how powerful Sima Shuo was, so he was nicknamed 'sycophant' by Tang Hua.

Everyone continued to eat, and after a quarter of an hour, Xuhui flew back from outside, and Tang Hua immediately asked curiously, "What happened outside?"

Xuhui didn't answer immediately, returned to his previous position, lowered his head and took a sip of soup, moistened his throat, and then said slowly: "I saw the hall master, the second hall master, the third hall master, and the fifth hall master flying from the entrance to the main hall with a man and a woman. ”

Tang Hua suddenly interrupted, "When have you seen the Hall Master, the Second Hall Master, the Third Hall Master, and the Fifth Hall Master?"

Xuhui said: "I haven't seen it." ”

Tang Huahu said suspiciously: "Then how do you know that it is the hall master, the second hall master, the third hall master, and the fifth hall master?"

Xuhui rolled his eyes and said, "I heard from the other people on the roof." ”

Then he said impatiently: "You still don't let me say it?"

Tang Hua pursed his lips and stopped talking, Xu Hui continued: "At the beginning, everyone didn't know who the man and woman were, but they could see from their clothes that they were from Jingshangtang, some people speculated that these two people might be the envoys of Jingshangtang, and they came to Tieshutang to choose seedlings, some people speculated that it was just an ordinary inspection, and some people guessed that it was because of the previous opening of the 'One Hundred Thousand Spirit Array', so the above sent someone to investigate, but these are not important, the important thing is to do." ”

Speaking of this, Xuhui looked at Songhuang, who was picking his teeth, and when he saw him looking at him meaningfully, he said angrily: "Do I know those two?"

Saying this, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thought of something, sat up straight, and rushed out of the room.

Xuhui looked at Songhuang's back with a smile, knowing that he had already guessed it.

Tang Hua was most annoyed that Xuhui was selling Guanzi, coupled with Songhuang's performance, his curiosity was as uncomfortable as being scratched by a cat, and said: "Don't sell Guanzi, tell me quickly, what's important?"

Sima Shuo said, "That man is a purple monster. ”

Xuhui gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Shuo without loss, you can guess it with a guess." ”

As soon as Songhuang walked out of the house, he bumped into Minglu head-on, and Songhuang was puzzled: "Why did you come back?"

Minglu sighed and said, "I'll tell you after this, you know that Xiao Zizi is back, right?"

Songhuang nodded and said, "I just knew." ”

Minglu sighed again and reminded: "He has changed a lot, be careful, it's best, it's best to avoid him, he's no longer the little Zizi we knew before, promise me, okay?"

Seeing that what he said was so serious, Songhuang didn't have his previous lazy appearance, and asked solemnly, "What's the matter?"

Under Songhuang's repeated questioning, Minglu reluctantly told the enemy and crocodile Zi about the encounter, Songhuang was first incredulous when he heard Crocodile Zi shoot at them, then angry, and finally happy, fortunately he told the teacher his hunch, and the teacher sent the deputy hall master, otherwise something might really happen.

He originally thought that the feeling of uneasiness came from their mission this time, it seemed wrong, even if the three strong people who suddenly appeared, in the face of Minglu and his party, the two sides were at most both defeated or one side fled, and they would never be killed or injured, but it was the crocodile Zi and the woman who also came from Jingshangtang who appeared later, who wanted to kill people, without a little affection, if the six deputy hall masters, Minglu and his party might have been more than lucky.

Songhuang asked again, "How are the others now?"

Ming Lu said: "Except for the fifth deputy hall master and Xiao Lanlan, the others are fine, at most they consume a lot, I think it won't be long before I can continue the previous task, right?"

Ming Lu knew that the mission would definitely continue, as long as the Iron Tree Hall was not extinguished for a day, it would continue, but he was not sure if he would send them when the time came.

Songhuang frowned and said, "Xi Lan, he used that trick?"

Minglu nodded and said: "In order to protect us, the fifth deputy hall master resisted the enemy's self-explosion, and the inner dan cracked and needed to recuperate for a long time, and Xiao Lanlan used the 'liquid triangle cannon' in order to attack the enemy, and now the horns on his head are weak and can't stand up, and he still oozes blood from the bottom from time to time, and he has no combat effectiveness at all, do you want to go and see him?"

'Liquid Triangular Cannon' is a move that presses the bottom of the box, and the general slashing and blocking have no effect on it at all, and he is very similar to him who is born with divine power, arrogant and unreasonable, but he is not a spirit after all, so he will have this side effect after use.

Songhuang patted Minglu's shoulder and said with a smile: "I can't leave now, let's go at night." ”

Minglu said 'um', and then turned to leave, Songhuang just turned around and wanted to return to the house, Xun suddenly appeared in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't you want to try?"

Songhuang returned to his previous lazy appearance, and asked pretending to be puzzled, "What to try?"

Laughing and silent, Songhuang could only continue by himself: "I don't know if I will be killed by him." ”

He asked, "No faith?"

Songhuang said honestly: "No." ”

Xun didn't say anything anymore, and said in his heart: "This can't help you." ”

Then a black hole appeared under his feet, and the person fell into it, and then the black hole closed by itself, Song Huang was not surprised, drooping his head, thinking that the master should be very disappointed in him, but let him fight with the crocodile, he really has no bottom in his heart.

Back in the weight-bearing building, seeing that everyone had finished eating, Songhuang told everyone to rest for a quarter of an hour before continuing the previous game.

————————

In the main hall of the Iron Tree Hall, Crocodile Zi stood in front of the six pillars, except for the four hall masters who were absent and Xun who was unwilling to come forward, several other hall masters were there, and because of their identities, the four of them did not sit on the high pillars, but stood in the lower position of him and Cunning, and the same was true of Crocodile Pity, although he was the grandfather of Crocodile Zi, it was not a family gathering now, so he also stood in the lower position.

Crocodile Zi stared at the six pillars for a long time, as if he was thinking about the past, and the hot-tempered Huo Qian couldn't help but say: "If you have something, just say it, ask if you have something, don't waste everyone's time." ”

Shu Guan glared at him and scolded, "Shut up, how did you keep up with the envoy?"

Huo Qian snorted, and Shu Guan clenched his fist at Crocodile Zi and asked, "Dare to ask what the upper hall commands?"

Cunning Fei stepped forward and said, "A few days ago, your Iron Tree Hall opened the 'One Hundred Thousand Spirit Array', which is said to be in preparation for the promotion of the Great Hall Protection Array?"

Shu Guan nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Cunning Fei's eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "But as far as we know, your Tieshu Hall's formation master is only an eight-rank end-stream formation master, although it is not impossible to set up a 'One Hundred Thousand Spirit Array', but if he can change the large array that Mr. Fu, the seven-rank formation master you asked us to worship in Jingshang Hall, I don't think anyone will believe it, right?"

Shu Guan smiled bitterly and shook his head, no one would believe this.

The rank of the formation master and the level division of the power are not the same, it is based on the unit of 'product', from high to low, it is one to nine grades, each product needs to be assessed in order to be certified, and there are two forces in charge of the assessment, the holy realm, which is led by the only two first-grade array masters in the holy realm, one is the human race Cetianfu, and the other is the shaman of the demon clan.

When Shu Guan was hesitating how to explain, Xun, who was originally reluctant to show up, suddenly appeared at the gate, and Crocodile Zi finally turned to face everyone and said, "You are the guy who squeezed my grandfather down?"

The position where Crocodile Xi stands is slightly behind the other four hall masters, this is a manifestation of status, even if Crocodile Xi is only the most powerless hall master, it shouldn't be like this, so the only possibility is to be squeezed down.

Xun carried his hands behind his back, walked slowly, and said as he walked: "That's right, it's the old man." ”

Cunning Fei didn't feel the slightest respect from Xun, not even the kind of Shu Guan pretended, so he was not angry in his heart, and scolded: "Since you are the sixth hall master of the Iron Tree Hall, why didn't you come out to greet the two of us?"

Xun said calmly: "The matter is busy, please forgive me." ”

Please forgive me when I say that, but I don't mean to be sorry at all, Shu Guan and the other four people are a little surprised, this is completely different from the usual Xun, the usual Xun is not interested in everything, giving people a very detached feeling, but today it seems that the mood is not good, and this momentum looks like it is here to cause trouble.

Zhu Feng, the master of the third hall, hurriedly said with his heart: "Looking for the elderly, I hope you will take care of the Iron Tree Hall." ”

The fourth hall master Song Yan said: "Mr. is an outsider, if you anger Jing Shangtang, you can pat your ass and leave, but our Tieshutang can't." ”

The second hall master Huo Qian even warned: "Old thing, don't hurt us all!"

Only Shu Guan and Crocodile Xi didn't speak, one was because they knew the details of Xun, so they weren't worried, and the other was because they coexisted with Xun more, they knew him better, and knew that he was never a willful person.

Looking for the words of the three of them, Cunning Fei was about to open his mouth to angrily scold this old man who didn't know the height of the sky, but was stopped by her husband on the side, and Crocodile Zi asked, "Is the predecessor Mr. Wei?"

Xun didn't answer Crocodile Zi's question, but said to himself: "The 100,000 Spirit Array was laid by me in order to improve the Great Hall Protection Array of the Iron Tree Hall, which I promised the Lord of Shu Hall when I entered the hall. ”

Crocodile nodded and asked again, "Dare to ask Mr. What's the product?"

Xun lifted a corner of the robe, revealing the emerald jade plate hanging under the robe, and then put it down casually, although the time was short, but the crocodile and the cunning Fei could see it clearly, there was a red word in the jade card - seven.

This jade plaque is the proof of the array mage, and the words inside are their corresponding ranks.

Cunning Fei's attitude immediately became respectful after seeing the jade plaque, the other party was a formation master of the same grade as Mr. Fu who was enshrined in the hall, and her previous arrogant attitude suddenly no longer made her feel angry, because the formation master of this level had arrogant capital unless he met a saintly powerhouse.

Crocodile Zi nodded, since the matter is reasonable, then he has no reason to doubt the continuation of the Iron Tree Hall and the matter of the mountain and water luck, he can continue to explore in the northwest direction, and at the same time report the appearance of the breech in the Iron Tree Hall, to see if he still needs to send someone to secretly explore the lake, because it is very likely that the side of the lake will also be aware of the flow of the mountain and water luck, so he will send someone to investigate like himself.

Anyway, there is no need to stay here, and Crocodile Zi said goodbye and prepared to leave with Cunning.

Seeing that the two of them were about to leave the main hall, everyone was secretly relieved in their hearts, but Xun suddenly stopped the two of them and said, "Songhuang is now my disciple, and the two of you were old friends in the past, why don't you see each other?"

Hearing this, Crocodile Zi became interested, turned around and asked, "How do you see the law?"

Xun said: "When you were separated, you had a fight, in order to let you stay, but he lost in three moves, and now I want you to fight again to see if there is still a gap between the apprentices I taught and you." ”

Crocodile Zi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered: "Okay." ”

Then he turned around and left with Cunning Fei, who knew that her husband was arrogant, and she was naturally very unhappy to be used as a touchstone like this, but she still persuaded: "The other party is a seven-rank formation master, wait for a leisurely move, don't lose his face too much." ”

Cunning Fei naturally didn't believe that the person who defeated his husband in three moves back then could now compete with him, even if he was a disciple of the seven-rank array master, it was equally impossible, because Crocodile Zi was not only a rare genius in Tieshutang, but also after arriving in Jingshang Hall, his strength was in the top five among his peers, and he was a person who was expected to enter the Ancestor Hall, otherwise how could her mother let her little daughter marry Crocodile Zi.

Crocodile Zi asked his wife in a heartfelt voice, "Is it true?"

Cunning Fei nodded, she had seen Mr. Fu's jade plate at close range more than once, so she knew very well that the aura on the array master's jade plate was the same as this one.

Crocodile Zi was still lucky, and asked again, "Could it be that it is not mine?"

Cunning Fei shook his head slightly, and explained: "I heard Mr. Fu say that the words inside this jade tablet are drawn with the blood of the formation master, if it is not held by me, the words inside will be dark red, otherwise it will be bright red. ”

Crocodile Zi thought about it for a while, and the word 'seven' just now was indeed bright red, like a fake seven-rank formation master.

Cunning Fei told again: "Wait a minute, let him make a show, let him survive the five moves." ”

Crocodile nodded, and while speaking, the two of them had already arrived in the main square.

Xun had already asked the tree crown to send someone to inform Song Huang, and he stood on the platform with Shu Guan and other hall masters, waiting for the next battle between the yellow monster and the purple monster.

Crocodile said with some concern: "Although Songhuang's previous performance was very good, but the other party is my grandson, is it too slim to want to win?"

Originally, he wanted to say that it was too hopeless, but in the end, he still felt that it was too absolute, so he changed his words to be a tact.

Zhu Feng also said: "I heard that he is also a top genius in Jingshangtang, isn't this a let Song Huang go to beg for a fight?"

Huo Qian sneered: "Wait a minute, it's a shame to lose in three moves." ”

Song Yan also said: "I hope that the loss is not too ugly, otherwise our Iron Tree Hall's face will also be lost." ”

Shu Guan and the four of them did not have the same opinion, but said: "Since Mr. Xun dares to mention this, he is naturally certain to a certain extent, so don't worry about it." ”

Huo Qian sneered: "I hope." ”

Except for Crocodile Zi and Cunning Fei, no one else saw the waist card, so they still didn't know that Xun was a seven-rank array mage, and still thought it was the top eight-rank array mage who Shu Guan told them to be abandoned by the family, although he had the identity of a formation mage, but after all, he was helpless, and it was their Tieshutang who took him in, so his attitude towards him did not improve much, even if the attitude of Crocodile Zi and Cunning Fei changed before, they had long been accustomed to Xun, who had no temper.

And even if they knew the identity of the Xun Qipin Array Mage, they would not be optimistic about Songhuang, because they had identified the talents of the two from a long time ago, and the gap was like a chasm, even if Xun Zai used the formation to assist him in his cultivation, it was impossible to make up for this innate deficiency and the backwardness of the day after tomorrow.

Crocodile Zi sat on the ground in the square, and after a pillar of incense at the end, Songhuang slowly appeared at the other end of the square, followed by a group of little children.
