The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Lin Rui was already sitting on the Tianyan Wolf mount provided by the people in the mansion and walking on the way back to the academy area. Although he only took a very short break, Lin Rui had been skipping school for a month, and if he couldn't rush back to Shuiyue Palace before this afternoon, Lin Rui would inevitably be expelled from school according to school rules.

Looking at the familiar scenery on both sides of the return journey, Lin Rui was excited, it was only a little more than a month before and after, but his strength and mentality had completely changed, as if he had been reborn.

"I wonder what kind of expression Teacher Samir will have when he knows that I have reached the realm of intermediate cultivation in physical martial arts?" Lin Rui sat on his mount and thought to himself.

Over the years, in order to help him break the energy ban in his body, Mr. Samir has taken great pains, used all the relationships that can be used, and searched for all the drugs that can be found, but he has not succeeded.

And now that he left the Water Moon Palace to participate in this Yingxian Festival, but because he met Xiaobu by chance, not only did he temporarily lift this ban, but he also raised his energy and fighting cultivation to the intermediate level, such a change, I am afraid that Teacher Samir will cry out in surprise.

Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Rui's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, and gently stroked the small cloth with his left hand.

In his divine sense, Xiao Bu said with a little disdain: "Lin Rui, don't be so proud because you have made a little progress, although you are an intermediate martial arts cultivator, but don't say that in my eyes, even on this continent, your cultivation is still very weak, you still have a long way to go, don't be complacent easily!" ”

Lin Rui nodded helplessly, Lin Rui had long been accustomed to Xiao Bu's habit of hitting himself, and from his heart, he felt that it was not bad to have Xiao Bu to hit him at any time.

As the saying goes, arrogant soldiers will be defeated, if you are complacent because of a little achievement, it will often ruin a person's cultivation, so Xiaobu has been spurring himself on the side, reminding himself to continue to practice and move forward, which is the real help for his own growth.

But hearing Xiao Bu talk about his cultivation, Lin Rui's heart moved, and said, "Xiao Bu, you already know that my martial arts cultivation is advanced?" ”

Xiao Bu snorted: "Of course, otherwise you think that when you faced Mei Zhantian last night, who provided you with such a realistic illusion!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Rui's heart was suddenly moved, he couldn't imagine that when he was cultivating yesterday, Xiaobu had been silently helping himself! However, Lin Rui suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Xiaobu, didn't you say that it takes your spiritual power to open the illusion?" So ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Bu had already snatched Lin Rui's words and said: "Of course it will cost me spiritual power, but you don't have to worry too much, yesterday's illusion did not use the space power of the isolated world, nor did it change the laws of this world, it was just a trick for you, and the spiritual power consumed cannot be compared with the illusion that opened your special training." ”

Lin Rui hurriedly said: "But it still consumes your spiritual power, if you ......"

Xiao Bu interrupted Lin Rui again and said: "Don't worry, my current spiritual power consumption is not too much, and your current strength, it is still not enough to help me find soul matter, and when your strength is strong, hehe, you have to help me get a lot of it." ”

Lin Rui nodded firmly, no need for Xiaobu to say, he will also do his best to help Xiaobu repair his spiritual power and energy, this is not only the basis of the cooperation between the two sides, but also because Lin Rui has regarded Xiaobu as his own teacher and even... A benefactor, if you have kindness, you will repay it, which is the first important principle of Lin Rui's life!

Xiao Bu said with a smile: "But you are not in vain, I have worked hard for you, and I can actually improve to the intermediate level of martial arts cultivation in a month, tsk." But ......."

Xiao Bu changed his words and said solemnly: "Lin Rui, don't be complacent because of this, what I want to remind you more is that although you have comprehended the fist intent, and your physical combat cultivation has barely improved to the intermediate level, but your energy cultivation is only intermediate after all, without abundant and powerful energy cultivation, the time for you to stimulate the intermediate combat cultivation of physical skills in battle will be quite short, and it is not necessary in the fighting, so it is good not to launch the intermediate combat cultivation of physical arts!" You should improve your energy cultivation as soon as possible. ”

Lin Rui scratched his head and nodded, he also understood this in his heart, on the Thor Continent, the cultivation of any profession is based on energy cultivation after all, and people who do not have a solid energy foundation are like palaces built on the desert, and it is difficult to go far in any cultivation.

Walking and chatting all the way, Lin Rui returned to the academy area at noon, and soon came to the door of the Water Moon Palace.

Looking at the huge gate of the Water Moon Palace, Lin Rui exhaled deeply, jumped off the mount of the Tianyan Wolf, patted its head gently, and whistled, the Tianyan Wolf roared, turned around and walked back towards the road he had come.

Although the IQ of an ordinary spirit beast mount like the Tianyan Wolf is not high, it is very knowledgeable about the way, and the domesticated Tianyan Wolf can find its way home by itself. Therefore, Lin Rui didn't need to care about it, it would find its way back to the Kunwu Mansion by itself.

Looking at the Tianyan Wolf in the distance, Lin Rui turned his head, gently stroked the small cloth again, turned around and strode towards the Academy of the Water Moon Palace.

The interior of the Water Moon Palace Academy was quiet and abnormal today, Lin Rui only saw a few sporadic students walking in it, but for Lin Rui, he didn't feel too abnormal, after all, now was the time to cultivate, and the students were generally in the cultivation hall.

However, when he walked outside the cultivation hall of the Intermediate Division, Lin Rui frowned, the cultivation hall of the Intermediate Department was actually very quiet, not only did he not hear the voice of the fellow cultivators inside, but he didn't even hear the voice of the instructor.

Lin Rui walked into the cultivation hall quickly, and at this time, there were only a few students inside! Some were reading books, some were chatting, and it seemed very sparse in this huge cultivation hall.

Seeing that Lin Rui, who had been skipping school for a month, several students present showed a look of surprise, and a male student exaggeratedly shouted: "Wow! It's actually Lin Gongzi, where have you been running for so many days. Come on, come on, talk to us. ”

Ignoring that guy directly, Lin Rui took a few steps to the side of another boy who was immersed in reading a forging cheats, knocked lightly on the other party's table, and said, "Xiao An, why are there only so many people in the intermediate department today, other students, and mentors?" ”

Although he heard Lin Rui's voice, the boy seemed to be reluctant to leave the cheats, but he ignored Lin Rui for a while, until Lin Rui knocked on his desktop again, and the boy named Xiao An slowly turned his head, and when he saw that it was Lin Rui, he also opened his mouth in surprise and said, "Lin Rui, are you actually back?" Everyone thinks you've dropped out! ”

Lin Rui pursed his lips and said, "Hehe, I have encountered something recently, so I delayed returning to Shuiyue Palace for some time." Xiao An, why are there only so many people in the intermediate department, other students, and mentors? ”

Xiao An sighed, and said with some surprise: "You are not in the Water Moon Palace, have you left the Water Moon County?" Such a big thing, the city has been full of wind and rain these days, you don't know? ”

Lin Rui frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Xiao An said: "It's an intercollegiate fighting match! ”

Lin Rui said suspiciously: "Inter-school fighting match? Didn't you already play a little over a month ago? ”

Xiao An said: "Lin Rui, you are really forgetful, last time it was just an inter-school fighting match in our Shuiyue County, this time it is a biennial imperial inter-school fighting competition, and the elite students of the middle department and the senior department of the strongest cultivation academy in the six counties of my Dongling Empire held a fighting meeting in one of the cultivation academies in one of the counties. Last year, our Water Moon Palace won the right to host this event, and the Imperial Inter-School Fighting Tournament is already the fourth day today! ”

Yes! Lin Rui screamed in his heart, he really forgot such a thing, hey, mainly for waste materials like Lin Rui who couldn't even do energy cultivation before, he generally didn't pay much attention to this kind of news.

As soon as Xiao An said it this time, he suddenly thought about it, thinking that such a big fighting event was now being held in the Water Moon Palace, and seeing the genius martial artists of the cultivation academy in the six counties of the empire showing different fighting skills, for the current Lin Rui, his heart was excited!

He hurriedly asked, "Xiao An, where is the location?" ”

Xiao An said: "Just south of the Water Moon Palace, in the fighting arena of the academy martial arts club, hey, Lin Rui, what are you anxious about?" You can't practice martial arts, so you're so excited......"

When Xiao An was muttering, Lin Rui's figure had already flashed out of the cultivation hall of the Intermediate Department and went straight to the fighting arena south of the academy! >
