Chapter 5: The Girl in Red
In the past few days, Ling'er has been hit hard. The reason is naturally that Zhou Xu has gone from the first order of martial artists to the third order of martial artists in just three days.
She originally thought that she was more or less a genius, but now she was about to be caught up by Zhou Xu.
"What kind of opportunity have you gotten!Is this still a person's cultivation speed!?"
Ling'er was not convinced, she had already learned from Zhou Xu that he had inherited the Wood Spirit Bead, and she didn't know what the Wood Spirit Bead was, but she had already promised to keep this secret.
"'Wood' is a symbol of endless growth, and it also greatly improves cultivation. β
Zhou Xu explained casually.
"Tomorrow is the selection exam of the academy, if you have your current cultivation, there will definitely be no problem, and you will be selected as an inner disciple. β
Ling'er sighed, "However, my father has already paid your tuition, and they still think that you are a person who has no cultivation, so they have promised you to enter the school directly without taking this exam, of course, you are an outer disciple." It was supposed to be a good thing, but now it'......."
"It's okay, isn't it cultivation where, as far as I'm concerned, I don't need the explanation of those teachers. Zhou Xu said and touched Ling'er's head again.
"Okay, school is going to start tomorrow, you get ready!"
Ling'er gently dodged his hand and ran away.
A day later, the Kamikaze Academy freshman selection exam.
Since Zhou Xu didn't have to participate, he was already wandering around the academy, so naturally Ling'er took him with him.
"This is the inner door, but it seems that you can't enter it with your current status!" Ling'er looked at him, "No one anyway, hehe-hee-"
As he spoke, Ling'er grabbed him and ran to the inner door. The momentum here is truly unusual, and every building exudes majesty.
"How?"
"It's okay, it's okay! It's not as exaggerated as the outside world boasts. "After all, Zhou Xu was once the prince of the First Dynasty, so he naturally still has his vision.
"Haha, don't go to see such a lively freshman selection, Sister Ling'er, how can you have the leisure to wander around the academy?ββ why do you still have an outer disciple?"
Suddenly, a tall and burly figure appeared, and looked at Zhou Xu "carefully":
"Oh oh oh, who did I think it was? It turned out to be the gangster who hugged the Jin family's thigh! Do you know that outer disciples and dogs can't enter the inner door, especially outer disciples like you who have no cultivation at all, hahaha!"
Suddenly, a golden coercion struck, and the big man seemed to be about to crush Zhou Xu to the ground.
It's a pity that what he imagined didn't happen, and he saw Zhou Xu easily hold on.
"How dare you be so arrogant as a junior warrior?" Zhou Xu glared back, his eyes full of disdain.
"You!? Aren't you uncultivated?"
The big man seemed to be surprised, "It's just a martial artist, how arrogant, look at my ......"
Just as the big man was about to strike again, a red needle suddenly pierced his shoulder......
"Ah......" The big man stepped back directly, his face frightened.
"Zhao Hu, you can't use force casually in the academy except for the ring, don't you know?"
From a platform somewhere, a red figure jumped down.
This is a young and beautiful girl, with a posture like a swallow, wearing a long red dress, with a proud but chic face, and a bunch of fiery red hair on her head, as if she is like a fairy in the sky, and everything around her does not set off her beauty.
"Sister Feng!" It was Ling'er's cry.
"Feng ...... Fairy, I ......" It seems that the big man's name is Zhao Hu, but now he looks as bold as a cat.
"I'll explain this to the dean. β
The girl in red looked at Zhou Xu and Ling'er: "Your name is ...... Zhou Xu, right?Martial Artist Third Order?Even though you have the ability to become an inner disciple, but now, as an outer disciple, you are still not qualified to enter here, please go back!"
"Sister Feng...... Isn't there no one in the academy now......!"
"Poof-" The girl in red looked at Ling'er and smiled sweetly, at that moment, it seemed that the world was all for her:
"Okay, Ling'er, you have also been an inner disciple for several years, why don't you even understand this rule. β
She paused suddenly, and then said, "I heard that Zhou Xu is yours...... FiancΓ©?"
"Huh?" Ling'er suddenly lowered her head shyly and replied in a mosquito-like voice, "Hmm......"
"Hah...... Then, you guys go quickly!" the girl in red seemed to have misunderstood something, and her face was slightly red.
"Okay......" Ling'er agreed, sighed lightly, and pulled Zhou Xu out.
......
Out of the inner door, Ling'er began to speak: "That annoying big man is named Zhao Hu, and now he seems to be a samurai third or fourth order, he is Zhao Ming's elder brother, so he will find your fault." β
After a pause, Ling'er continued, "As for the very beautiful sister in red clothes, her name is Feng Tianyin, her cultivation is very terrifying, she is already a tenth order of martial arts, she is the granddaughter of the dean, and it is said that there is also a phoenix, but no one has ever seen it." β
"Oh?" Zhou Xu ignored the so-called phoenix, "Is she also a student here?"
"That's right!"
"Uh...... The strongest?"
"Hmm...... It should be the 10th strongest."
"Only tenth?" Zhou Xu was a little surprised.
"The top 50 of the Kamikaze Academy are all here, voila!"
Ling'er pointed to a board made of spiritual power in front of the mountain gate and said, it does have Feng Tianyin's name on it, tenth place.
"The top 50 have all reached the realm of martial artists, and the top five are even more terrifying, all of them are martial kings!" Ling'er then told Zhou Xu.
There is a rule here, those who do not have a ranking or a low ranking, have the right to challenge the person with the highest ranking, and the person with the highest ranking cannot refuse, if they win, the two will change the ranking.
So, the rankings after the 30 are changing almost every day, and the competition is fierce.
"Well, it's funny. Zhou Xu nodded, "It seems that we have to step up our cultivation." β
It is generally believed that only a warrior can be recognized as a cultivator, because a warrior can only summon spiritual power, but cannot use it well, and cannot even leave the body.
Samurai can summon spiritual power to the surroundings, and from this time on, they can practice some simple martial arts.
Martial artists can manipulate spiritual power more freely, and it is also from this time that spiritual power can reflect slight attribute energy, and it can also begin to control spiritual weapons.
And the Martial King is equivalent to a watershed, because from the beginning of the Martial King, the spiritual power has been completely converted into attribute energy, such as the "wind" of the head of the Zhao family, which is a kind of attribute energy.
Next, Zhou Xu was assigned to the dormitory of the outer disciples, and every day he cleaned the mountain gate like everyone else, stood guard, and stepped up his cultivation at night.
In less than a week, he went from the third order of the martial artist to the fifth order of the martial artist, leaving the other outer disciples dumbfounded.
"Zhou, Brother Zhou...... How did you get out of the outer door?
A small man asked. Now that he was just a martial disciple of the eighth order, seeing Zhou Xu's cultivation speed made him so surprised that it was incomprehensible.
Zhou Xu chuckled at him without explaining.
"Hey, hey, hey, sister-in-law is here!" An outer disciple shouted.
He was talking about Ling'er, who was innocent and cute, and her beautiful and flawless posture made those outer disciples very blushing one by one, especially after knowing the relationship between Zhou Xu and her.
"Zhou Xu Zhou Xu, good news!"
Following the voice, Zhou Xu looked over, and naturally Ling'er ran in, "Next week, next week, your outer disciples will be asked to go to the mountains to collect medicine." β
"Is this good news?" he chuckled helplessly.
"Do you know who is leading the team this time?"
"Shall it?" Zhou Xu guessed someone.
"Feng Tianyin, Sister Feng, oh ββ!"
The news exploded like a deep water**, and those outer disciples instantly cheered.
"Wow! It's a phoenix!"
"Really? Can you see me?"
"Haha, that's great!"
It's just that Ling'er looked at Zhou Xu with a calm expression, and was slightly puzzled: "Ah, don't you have a reaction, that's a big beauty!"
"Ha-" Zhou Xu chuckled, "That's it!"
After all, he didn't know how many stunning women he had seen before, and at this time, he suddenly thought of a figure.
That figure, as if coming out of a painting, her appearance seemed to dim everything in the world, and there is no adjective in the world that can aptly express her beauty.
Its shape is also, like a frightening flood, graceful like a dragon. Her smile is like a light cloud covering the moon, and fluttering like the snow of the wind. She is the princess of the Ouyang Dynasty, Ouyang Xiyun.
"Hey, what do you want?" Ling'er looked at Zhou Xu in a daze and asked softly, "You...... Are you thinking about her?
"Hmm. Zhou Xu unexpectedly replied in the affirmative, unwilling to hide anything from Ling'er. Then, as if realizing something, he looked at her apologetically, "I'm sorry...... Ling'er, I'm ......"
"I know I know...... Ling'er smiled, very satisfied with his answer, and whispered in Zhou Xu's ear: "You only have one more of her in your heart, otherwise, hum, I will be angry!"
Looking at Ling'er, Zhou Xu was suddenly a little moved, he had really not experienced this kind of warmth for a long time.
He gently pulled Ling'er over, "Don't worry." Then, I'll send you out. β
After this sentence, the pot exploded instantly among the outer disciples who watched the excitement:
"Wait, this, that's the end?"
"Oxman, cowman!"
"Brother Zhou is different, this is too powerful. β
"It's such a bastard, even if you have a spirit woman, you won't be satisfied!"
"Ahhh
......
Their voices full of resentment continued like this until Zhou Xu returned.
