Chapter 34: Master-level strength

The newly appeared man grinned at Zhao Yu, and he immediately straightened the posture of holding the staff a little. He walked to the middle of the road. In this way, Zhao Yu was surrounded by these two enemies.

If you don't finish one fight, you're going to have to deal with the other. Zhao Yu only felt that his teeth were chattering. Looking at the newly joined enemy, Zhao Yu carefully examined his face.

The man's head was very round, and the eyes and mouth in it were delicately round. He looked very young, as if he was in his early twenties. However, judging from the momentum with which he held the staff, he looked like an old magician.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through him, and Zhao Yu remembered the name of the young magician.

He Weilin - Zhao Yu read these three words with his mouth broken.

At that time, in the chance encounter in the suburban test, Zhao Yu had the most profound image of this person.

"Why did you just come out! I've had a few tricks with her. Zhang Zhijie fluttered the staff in his hand.

"Teacher, you don't know! I'm just observing Shen Mengting's strength......? Alas...... That's it!"

Judging from the conversation between these two people, their relationship is that of master and apprentice. Zhao Yu thought with one of the few sober nerves.

"Don't be too arrogant. After all, it takes a lot of time to know what a person's strength is. Zhang Zhijie nodded at He Weilin.

Seeing this, He Weilin lowered his head 'modestly': "The teacher said it well, I will keep it in mind." ”

Shen Mengting had never looked back before, she just looked at Zhang Zhijie in front of her. However, after seeing and hearing the conversation between the two, Shen Mengting turned her eyes to the corner of her eye, "Yo, Zhang Zhijie." You seem to have been very prosperous in the past few years, and you even have minions. ”

"Shen Mengting, you only have a few minutes to get away with it. Zhang Zhijie's head sank slightly, and the top-down looking angle had already revealed his sense of ferocity.

"Teacher, why don't you just do it! I felt like I could easily beat this woman. ”

"Nope. Zhang Zhijie's left hand was raised above his head, "He Weilin, now is not the moment for a fair showdown with others. We have a lot of responsibility on our hands. So, there is no need to talk about fairness. Together, we will come to this woman and do what needs to be done. ”

"Got it, teacher!"

"Hmph!" Shen Mengting bit her lip, "Zhang Zhijie." I can come and fight you. However, please do not hurt the innocent. ”

Hearing the word 'innocent', Zhao Yu's neck immediately stretched upward.

"Take the boy behind me, he's just a civilian, so let him go! During Shen Mengting's speech, her back was up and down. Suddenly, she turned her head to the back, "Hey, didn't you hear what I just said, why are you still staying here? Why don't you run?"

Zhao Yu was a little stupid at first, but after a few seconds, he completely came to his senses.

"When I first wanted to run away, you forcibly pulled me and didn't allow me to go", Zhao Yu began to run towards the bushes next to him. Although his legs are still a little weak, it is good to be able to escape after all.

Who knows, just after trotting a few steps, Zhang Zhijie's reprimand came over.

"No, I can't. ”

Zhao Yu was so frightened that he suddenly stopped, and he looked back at Shen Mengting as if asking for help.

"Zhang Zhijie, you ......"

"The two of us came to this proving ground just to find a boy. Now I'm not sure if he's the boy, how can I let him go?" Zhang Zhijie slammed his staff to the ground.

A sound followed, and it seemed to block Zhao Yu's chance to live. Zhao Yu was about to fall to the ground.

"That's a good point. I've noticed him before. When the ice arrow came, you did your best to protect him. Explain that he is very important. So I very much doubt that this boy is the person we are looking for. He Weilin pointed sharply at Zhao Yu.

"So...... He can't go. ”

Zhao Yu didn't know how to stay in the road.

Shen Mengting's body sank, and she arched her back slightly, waiting for the enemy to attack.

Regarding Shen Mengting's vicious stare now, Zhang Zhijie put her body more relaxed and comfortable.

"Hmm, it looks like this boy is the person we're looking for?" Zhang Zhijie probed at Zhao Yu, "Hey, let me ask you, are you the boy who fell under the cliff?"

Zhao Yu only felt that his chest had received a knowing blow. Finished, his eyes lost focus and looked at the sky. As his consciousness began to blur with tension, he sat down on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhijie laughed: "It seems that there is really no place to find it when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there! The person we want to find is actually close in front of us, so there is no need to go to the trial ground to pick one by one." ”

"Zhang Zhijie, if you have the ability, come to me. Don't hurt civilians. Shen Mengting's foot moved quickly to the side.

"Of course I wouldn't hurt. I'm just going to be you. Zhang Zhijie suppressed his body as he spoke, and he stretched out his neck and yelled at He Weilin, "He Weilin, I'll deal with this female swordsman." And the task of catching that boy is up to you. ”

"Got it. He Weilin's eyes were immediately firmly locked on Zhao Yu.

"Shen Mengting, you used to look down on me in Saran Country. Now, it's time for me to take revenge with my own hands. ”

"You're coming!" Shen Mengting sighed deeply.

"I see how long you can still have a hard mouth?" Zhang Zhijie's facial features suddenly clustered.

And with him, there is also the breath around him. I saw Zhang Zhijie stretch out his arms, and after a hard time, an inexplicable whirlwind blew at his feet. The whirlwind swirled around him as if consciously.

This is the magician's qi array before the exercise, and Shen Mengting held her breath.

"Shen Mengting, I haven't seen you for so many years, just let me see what level you have reached, right?"

As soon as the words fell, the staff held in Zhang Zhijie's left hand emitted bursts of light - he was about to attack. His right hand was covered by a burst of blue light, and he pointed it at Shen Mengting's location.

With a long breath exhaled, Zhang Zhijie's right hand instantly spewed out a stream of blue air. The air path was extremely fast, and the trajectory it passed froze into a spinning icicle in an instant. The icicles rushed towards Shen Mengting, and there was a faint icing 'hiss' sound.

"Icicle!" Shen Mengting muttered the name of the enemy's move in a low voice. With a force on both legs, she quickly jumped to the side.

She dodged the icicle and struck the door of the proving ground behind her. In an instant, the huge iron door that opened on both sides was completely covered with a layer of blue deep ice.

Shen Mengting couldn't help but look back at the messy behind.

"Haha!How about it?Shen Mengting, do you know how powerful I am?" Zhang Zhijie released a cold icicle again.

This time, Shen Mengting quickly dodged it with an oblique body. Icicles slashed across her chest, sending chills through her.

"What's the matter? Do you only know how to dodge?" haha......" Zhang Zhijie's face was full of excited smiles, "I see how long you can hide?"

The words dispersed, and another rapidly elongating ice pillar flew in. From the formation of the icicle in Zhang Zhijie's hand to the time it was issued, it took less than a second.

Shen Mengting hurriedly ran to the side, and the ice pillar knocked away the scabbard behind her. And just when she was surprised that the place was so powerful, a terrible cold snap rushed towards her in front of her.

Shen Mengting couldn't dodge anymore, so she directly blocked the sword in front of her.

The icicle hit her directly, causing her legs to lift off the ground and fly towards her. When she hit the ground again, she realized that her hands were frozen.

No, it should be said that the giant sword she held was frozen into a block of ice.

Damn! Shen Mengting hurriedly threw the sword to the ground, and with the sound of 'ping-pong', the ice covering the sword instantly cracked. In this way, the sword regains its original sharpness.

"Hahaha......" Zhang Zhijie walked towards her slowly, this person was still as stable as usual, and his breath was not even a little chaotic, "It's completely vulnerable!"

Shen Mengting covered her chest and moved back a little distance.

"Shen Mengting, it seems that you haven't grown much in the past few years, and to be honest, I'm a little disappointed. As Zhang Zhijie walked, the staff he held kept touching the ground, "Let me guess your swordsman level!"

After a slight pause, he deliberately raised his voice: "It should only be advanced!"

Shen Mengting gritted her teeth unwillingly. Her calves were on the ground, ready to stand up.

"Haha...... A high-level swordsman actually dared to come and be presumptuous with me. That's really...... Alas, what should I say about you!"

"If you want to kill, kill it, why bother so much nonsense. ”

"What? I'm going to kill you? hahahaha...... Have you forgotten what I'm here for?"

Zhang Zhijie instantly threw his staff in the direction of He Weilin: "Hey, He Weilin, what are you still in a daze." I'm going to beat this woman to death. You didn't do anything. Quick, get that boy up. After all, he's the point. ”

As soon as he heard that his attention had shifted to himself again, Zhao Yu sighed sharply.

"Got it, teacher. He Weilin looked at Zhao Yu, and a little murderous aura flashed between his eyebrows.

Then, He Weilin was like Zhang Zhijie's copy just now, expanding his chest and stretching his arms. Although He Weilinshi's aura was much smaller than that of his teacher, in the eyes of most people, it was also a very powerful aura.

"Have you met Yang Jiening?" He Weilin's hand showed a blue light.

Zhao Yu didn't realize that the other party was asking him a question at first, so he just trembled dumbly.

"Hey, I'm asking you a question, have you met Yang Jiening?"

Zhao Yu came back to his senses, but when he saw that a magician was about to perform tricks on him, he was so frightened that his brain short-circuited.

"I really don't know what to ask. He Weilin's round eyes narrowed into a slit, "Then let you taste the bitterness." ”

With that, he's going to unleash an ice arrow.

However, just when He Weilin was about to put his ideas into action, Shen Mengting suddenly had a hard time. She directly threw the giant sword in her hand at He Weilin.

"He Weilin, be careful. ”

Hearing his teacher shouting, He Weilin quickly turned his head. What he saw was a greatsword flying towards him, and it was extremely fast.

"Hmph, do you think this little skill of carving insects can hurt me?" He Weilin put down his right hand that was glowing with blue light, and instead raised his left hand, which held the staff.

In an instant, powerful air currents began to ripple around him. A translucent mana shield was born.

The greatsword struck the mana shield like it had struck a steel plate that was immensely strong. Soon, the greatsword lost its trajectory and flew to the side with a trembling tremble.

"Hahaha...... It's ridiculous, you think ......" He Weilin was about to laugh a few words, but the scene after that made him unable to speak again.

I saw Shen Mengting jump up and jump towards He Weilin.

"Naive. Seeing this, Zhang Zhijie gathered his qi in his right hand and hurriedly cast a cold icicle.

However, Shen Mengting forcibly changed her posture in the air. I saw her body lift back, and she quickly dodged the cold icicle that hit her. Just when others were surprised, Shen Mengting stepped on her legs again and flew towards the giant sword that flew to the side.

Before the giant sword fell to the ground, Shen Mengting just touched the hilt of the sword. The whole process is completed in a matter of seconds. She regained her grip on the sword and slashed at Ho Wellin's side.

"Shun Chop. ”

At the same time as Zhang Zhijie said the move, a half-moon arc flashing with yellow light broke away from Shen Mengting's giant sword. The direction in which the Half Moon Arc flew pointed directly at He Weilin.

He Weilin let out a sharp sigh and lifted his staff again to trigger the mana shield. The half-moon arc hit the mana shield, and it was instantly bounced and shattered. Although this trick did little harm to He Weilin, it also managed to slow him down.

Shen Mengting quickly jumped to Zhao Yu's side, grabbed his arm, and dragged him up with force.

Since Zhao Yu hadn't prepared in advance, he only felt that his armpit was painful.

"What's the fuss? Shen Mengting directly picked up Zhao Yu with one hand and ran into the distance.

Seeing his body levitating in the air, Zhao Yu lowered his head in surprise. Shen Mengting's left arm was wrapped around his abdomen, and there was a tingling sensation.

Shen Mengting not only picked him up with one hand, but also ran so fast. Zhao Yu was surprised why this woman's strength was so great.

Shen Mengting was holding Zhao Yu with a sword in one hand and Zhao Yu in the other.

But just as she ran in front of the grass hut, a chill hit behind her. An icy arrow grazed between her arm. Fortunately, it came from the right, if it was from the left, it would hit Zhao Yu in her hand.

Fortunately, another ice arrow shot at her.

"Do you want to run? How can it be so easy!" Zhang Zhijie in the distance made a move.

Shen Mengting hurriedly turned around and forcibly pushed it with a giant sword. The ice arrow struck the greatsword in her hand, and the two touched one by one, forming a powerful air current. For a while, Shen Mengting's right hand, which was holding the giant sword, began to tremble violently.

Because she was holding a boy, she couldn't even free her hands to hold the sword in both hands. Finally withstood the force, she directly shook her hand and pushed the ice arrow back untouched.

A blue light flew in the direction of Zhang Zhijie.

"Hmph!" Zhang Zhijie only moved his head slightly when he saw this, and the ice arrow slashed through his ear. The whole thing just blew a little bit of hair behind his earlobe.

He stared closely at Shen Mengting in the distance, and Shen Mengting also fought back with a sharp gaze.

"Don't die anymore, Shen Mengting. At the moment when Zhang Zhijie roared, multiple ice arrows flew out of his hands.

Zhao Yu was already stunned by the scene in front of him, and he hugged Shen Mengting's waist tightly with both hands.

"Go, hide in the hut. ”

Shen Mengting no longer fixed Zhao Yu in a hugging posture, but directly picked up his back clothes, dragged him with a tow, and jumped into the grass shed behind him.

The lower end of the hut is composed of a row of wooden fences covered with hay, and the overall height of the wooden fences is about 1.5 meters. So when jumping in, it didn't take much effort.

However, Zhao Yu still rolled in the grass shed for a long time before he barely froze his body.

After Shen Mengting jumped into the grass shed, she immediately lowered her body alertly and leaned towards the wooden fence. She was about to peer out into the scene when the hay in front of her suddenly hissed.

No, that's what the Ice Arrow does. Shen Mengting looked at the wooden fence in surprise.

Sure enough, the hay draped over it was deeply frozen. The freeze seemed to have come out of hay, forming an ever-expanding layer of ice. They continue to stretch and connect again.

As a result, the piece in front of Shen Mengting was about to become a canvas formed of ice. Of course, it's not just the visual impact. There is also a constant 'pop' sound, which affects the mood of the people hiding inside.

"Shen Mengting, do you think it's useful to hide in this broken grass shed?" Zhang Zhijie outside kept shouting.

At the moment, there must be ice arrows constantly shooting at the grass shed. Shen Mengting made such a guess.

If it continues, the grass shed will definitely collapse, so we have to find a way quickly! Shen Mengting clenched the hilt of the sword. However, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't come up with a way.

The gap in strength is too obvious, and it is impossible for her to defeat Zhang Zhijie.

This is the strength of the master level! Shen Mengting's mind entered a whirlpool of surprise.

I heard earlier that Zhang Zhijie's strength has improved a lot, and he has reached that terrifying level. Now it seems that this rumor is true. After Shen Mengting's hard work just now, not to mention hurting one of Zhang Zhijie's fingers, even messing up his breath is an extravagant hope.

Coupled with the presence of the man's apprentices, the two magicians were first-class masters. So Shen Mengting even has almost zero chance of escaping.

"Damn!" Shen Mengting slammed the ground with one hand.

Outside, the ice arrows were still hitting the grass hut, and the grass hut had become crumbling. Hiding is definitely not the best strategy, you have to find a way! Shen Mengting's heart tightened to the extreme.

"Teacher, why is there no movement inside? Is something happening?"

"He Weilin, don't worry. They can't hide in the hut all the time. ”

"Let me go in and have a look!"

"No, just stand outside, and wait until I destroy this hut and see how they can hide. ”

Outside, Zhang Zhijie and He Weilin were communicating.

What should I do? What should I do? Just as Shen Mengting was still struggling with what to do, a chill swept over her head.

An ice pillar burst into the hut and hit the wall behind them.

"Ah......h

The walls behind the hut are made of cylindrical wood, so when they are hit by ice sticks, they all turn into popsicles.

And after that, the icicles did not disappear immediately, but instead thickened their strength and began to scratch the walls. It's like a digging machine desperately digging holes in the ground, and it corrodes everything in the walls. It shook to the left, then swept to the right. With a fierce 'hiss' of freezing, almost half of the walls at the back of the hut were frozen into ice.

"Shen Mengting, you hide again! you continue to shrink in the grass shed like this!"

It's terrifying, it's terrifying! Shen Mengting couldn't help but purse her lips, Zhang Zhijie's ice spell had been used so well. Therefore, today's Shen Mengting has almost lost hope of escape.

But, just as she was about to despair, a whim flashed through her mind. She quickly pressed against the wall behind her, and then looked at the ice pillars that rushed in.

By the way, she thought of a way. The sword was clenched again, and Shen Mengting's heart was not entangled.

It's just that it's not certain whether this method will work! But now she has no choice.

Then bet on it! Shen Mengting exerted force with both feet and changed her posture to a squatting position.
