Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Chance Encounter on the Way

Because if he wanted to reach Xiaolan Academy in two months, Ling Feng would have to pass through the Deep Valley. Therefore, Ling Feng once again stepped into the Valley of the Depths, but this time the route was different. Ling Feng's journey this time is equivalent to walking from the northernmost part of the Deep Valley to the southernmost part, which can be said to require crossing an entire Deep Valley. Ling Feng knew that if someone protected him, he would be able to pass through it soon. However, Ling Feng was alone, and he had to be very careful when walking in the deep valley.

A month had passed in a flash, and Ling Feng guessed that he had probably walked half the way. Moreover, with the passage of a month, Ling Feng not only completely stabilized the realm at the beginning of the Qi Acceptance Period, but also had a vague sign of ascension again. In addition, in the fight with the fifth-order demon beasts, Ling Feng's combat skills and combat perception also improved.

That is to say, the past month has not been in vain. This morning, after Ling Feng had eaten a simple breakfast, he set out on the road again. Not long after Ling Feng left, the sound of a fight came from the place where the fifth-order demon beast jungle bear was. I only heard one person shouting, "Brother Xiong, don't chase me, won't I just take a small object from you."

After a while, one person and one bear arrived at the place where Ling Feng had stayed before. After that, the man fled in the direction that Ling Feng had left. Of course, the Jungle Bear followed him. Soon, Ling Feng, who was walking in front, suddenly felt the murderous aura coming from behind, so he found a hidden place to hide, ready to see what was going on.

It didn't matter if he didn't look at it, when he saw that Ling Feng actually noticed a person he was familiar with passing by quickly, and there was a jungle bear chasing after him. When Ling Feng found out about this situation, he also hurriedly chased after him. After about an hour, the man stopped and panted and said, "Damn, I really can't run, I can't run anymore, why haven't those guys been solved yet, I've already arrived at the meeting point", and at this moment, the attack of the jungle bear also followed.

Seeing that the man couldn't dodge, a spear wrapped in a golden dragon suddenly appeared, blocking the claw strike of the jungle bear. After seeing the person coming, the man exclaimed, "How could it be you, Ling Feng, you are not...". Ling Feng said, "Lin Xiang, long time no see, wait until I solve the guy in front of me first, let's talk about the old days." After saying that, Ling Feng attacked towards the jungle bear.

Seeing Ling Feng and the Jungle Bear start hand-to-hand combat, Lin Xiang said, "Be careful, Ling Feng, this Jungle Bear is known for its strength and defense." Ling Feng knew that Lin Xiang cared about him, so he made a gesture to Lin Xiang that he was fine. Fight hard with the jungle bear. Lin Xiang, who saw this scene, was almost stupid. He had never seen anyone who could fight a jungle bear physically.

After about half an hour, Ling Feng took a few steps back and said, "Okay, now I probably know my physical strength, you can die," and after speaking, Ling Feng took out his coiling dragon spear and stabbed at the jungle bear. Soon the Jungle Bear fell under Ling Feng's gun, and after putting away the Jungle Bear's body, Ling Feng walked towards Lin Xiang.

At this moment, Lin Xiang was still immersed in the battle just now and did not wake up, and Ling Feng directly knocked Lin Xiang's head twice when he saw this. Lin Xiang came back to his senses from the shock. Seeing that Lin Xiang had woken up, Ling Feng said, "Aren't you in Xiaolan Academy, how can you appear here." Lin Xiang explained, "Yes, we are indeed in the academy, but this time I took the task with a few friends, but I didn't want to alarm this jungle bear, and a few of us couldn't beat it, so we had to use the method of sound to get the target items of this mission, who knows that those people have not been completed yet, originally I wanted to reach this assembly point to fight the jungle bear together." Outcome... , you know it".

Ling Feng said again, "Before they come, you can tell me about this Xiaolan Academy first." Lin Xiang nodded and said, "Okay, since you haven't gone yet, I'll tell you about it." This Xiaolan Academy is divided into an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard. For example, we are disciples who belong to the outer court, and the cultivators who have just entered the academy belong to the disciples of the outer court. Unless a strong person has just entered and has taken a fancy to you, you can immediately enter the inner courtyard if you are accepted as a disciple. As disciples of the outer court, we need to complete the reward task of the academy in order to obtain the corresponding cultivation resources. A few of us came here to get the resources for the promotion period. However, if the disciples of the outer courtyard want to enter the inner courtyard, there is also a chance, such as the annual outer courtyard competition. If you can achieve the top three results among them, you will get a place to become a disciple of the inner court."

Speaking of this, Ling Feng asked, "Then where are you in the outer courtyard?" Lin Xiang said, "Cultivators like us who have not reached the Qi Acceptance Stage can only be ranked at the bottom of the list in the Outer Courtyard. Unless we are promoted to the Qi acceptance period, we will be promoted a little bit, after all, those people in front of us have better cultivation resources than us. For example, martial arts, exercises, and secret arts. ”

Ling Feng asked again, "What's going on, don't they have to come out to do the task?" Lin Xiang said, "Of course you need to, but you don't need to be like those top people." The academy has a ranking of disciples in the outer court, and if you can defeat someone on the tournament table, you will get the position of that person's previous leader. ”

Ling Feng wondered, "Is there any use for the ranking?" Lin Xiang said, "It's very useful, if you are in the first place, you will get resources that others in the outer courtyard can't get." You don't have to risk your life to complete the mission like we do." Ling Feng comforted, "Isn't that good, you can continue to improve your combat experience when you come out."

Lin Xiang shook his head and said, "You may not know that the reason why Xiaolan Academy is so popular in the imperial capital is mainly because the academy has something that is enough to make ordinary cultivators rush to it, and that is the Qi Cultivation Tower. I don't know when this Qi Cultivation Tower appeared, and it is said that the reason why the first generation of deans built Xiaolan Academy there was because of that Qi Training Tower. Ling Feng came and said with interest, "You tell me about it."

"Qi Cultivation Tower, as the name suggests, can make a cultivator's true qi even stronger. Cultivating in it for one day is equivalent to cultivating outside for a week, and of course this is only the lowest level of cultivation. There is a level limit in the Qi Cultivation Tower, and if we think like this, we can only cultivate at the lowest level, and we can't do more than one day at a time, and we must enter again after coming out. If we want to get the opportunity to enter, we must complete the task to obtain the corresponding points, and then exchange it for cultivation time. Cultivators like the top few didn't need to do tasks at all, because the academy would give them ten days of cultivation time every month. Of course, if you want to get more time, you can also get it from the ring, as long as someone is willing to use the cultivation time to compete with you, as long as you win the opponent's time, you will have it, if you lose, yours will become the opponent's"

Ling Feng asked, "Then have you tried it?" Lin Xiang said, "Of course there is, when I first came, I thought I was very strong, so I challenged it, but I lost a lot. I've won since then, but I've lost more than I won. Maybe I'm afraid of losing, and I haven't been in the ring much since then, like a few friends who came out this time met in the ring. I'm sure with your current strength it would be easy to get along in the outer court."

Ling Feng asked again, "What about the situation in the inner court," Lin Xiang said, "I don't know about the inner court, and the disciples of our outer court can't get in touch with the affairs of the inner court at all." Even the Qi Cultivation Tower, the inner courtyard is above the fourth floor. And our outer courtyard can only be below the third floor. You can imagine the great advantages of the inner courtyard."

Ling Feng thought to himself, it seems that the water in this Xiaolan Academy is also very deep, and this trip to the muddy water is not good.
