Chapter 9: The Staff
"It is a matter of the majesty of the spell, and it must not be taken lightly. Tang Lang, don't use Lingse as an excuse to use Senior Brother Zhao as an excuse, if you know that you are invincible, you will quickly kneel on the ground and beg for mercy!" He Shan saw that Tang Lang had not dared to answer positively, and he was even more arrogant.
Tang Lang saw that there was no way to avoid it, and nodded in agreement: "Isn't it just to fight with you again? To fight is still the old rule, a fair battle, and the loser has to pay a bet of ten gold coins. ”
He Shan ran into the ring in two steps, beckoned contemptuously at Tang Lang and said, "I not only want to win back the ten gold coins that you cheated yesterday, but also give you a long memory, so that you know that the dignity of a sorcerer cannot be offended!"
Tang Lang didn't want to be left behind, so he immediately retorted: "I have never had any disrespect for spells, but where are you qualified to represent the entire spell master, you are not worthy at all!"
Qiu Tongfang shouted loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, see the truth under your hands! A waste of a junior class dares to speak out!"
Tang Lang left the shield and the right sword, and jumped into the ring: "Since there is Senior Qiu to witness, it is not bad to fight with you again to earn ten gold coins, come on!"
After a day, the two re-entered the ring: He Shan learned the previous lesson, never let the opponent have a chance to get close, fireballs and ice arrows swept out like a storm, and the state was several times more ferocious than the previous day; Tang Lang did not dare to expose the secret of the system, so he could only rely on martial arts to fight, the Xunfeng under his feet was in a hurry, and his body was swaying like catkins in the wind, and he really couldn't dodge it, so he had to use a round shield to resist, and his arm was sore from the impact.
Seeing this scene, Qiu Tongfang didn't care about the fairness of the competition between the two sides, and reminded him: "This kid is deliberately consuming your spiritual power, attacking him with a wide range of spells, see how he dodges!"
He Shan's face showed a somewhat hideous color, and he took out a finger-thick wooden stick from his arms, and shouted: "Burst Flame Curse!" Four sesame-like sparks drilled out of the short stick with the spell, and in a flash, they turned into fist-sized fireballs, flying several feet forward, and then exploded, sparks splashed everywhere, and the side of the ring close to Tang Lang instantly turned into a sea of fire, like purgatory.
Zhao Feiyu shouted: "Senior Heshan, where did you borrow the staff, it's not fair!"
Qiu Tongfang stopped: "What's unfair! Martial artists can use blades and shields, and spell masters can naturally use magic staffs, this magic staff was lent to He Shan, why not!"
Tang Lang's eyes were full of firelight, there was a sharp pain all over his body, his nose smelled a scorched and pungent breath, and even the gray robe on his body began to burn: "Do you just admit defeat? No, how can my mantis brother bow his head easily!"
Tang Lang looked through the firelight, He Shan's figure was only faintly visible, took a deep breath, and secretly said "It's inconvenient now", the spiritual power of the Guiyuan spell flowed all over the body to temporarily suppress the burns, and his legs were full of strength, and he shouted: "Shocking Sword!"
He Shan stood outside the firelight, and his heart was also uneasy: "Why doesn't this kid admit defeat, if he is burned to death, it will be very bad!" Suddenly he noticed that a shadow was coming from the sea of fire, and with a wave of the subconscious staff, a fireball flew towards the other party.
It was not easy for Tang Lang to barely jump out of the sea of fire, there was no way to adjust his body, there was no possibility of dodging in the face of the fireball, he could only hold the round shield high and try to offset the power of the fireball, but the offensive was also interrupted, and his body began to fall towards the ring.
He Shan didn't have any defense at all, and was hit by a short blade, if Tang Lang didn't deliberately avoid the blade, but hit his face with the blade, even so, he was beaten to He Shan dizzy, his nose was bleeding profusely, and his eyes rolled in pain and he fainted.
Tang Lang was not happy, the whole person fell into the sea of fire and was almost ignited, and the system prompts of "xenogeneous energy injection, energy unit: 1 point" and "xenogeneous energy injection, energy unit: 1 point" kept coming to his mind......
Forced to endure the severe pain and rolled his body, and finally rolled out of the sea of fire, Tang Lang hit He Shan's body, his chest seemed to be held against a hard object, and before he had time to check, he heard a prompt from the system: "An object carrying a large amount of xenogeneous energy has been detected, is it absorbed?"
"Absorb immediately!" Tang Lang was already dizzy from the flames, and he was supported by his will, and immediately agreed when he heard that there was energy absorption, and then heard the system prompt again: "Xenogeneous energy injection, energy unit: 24 points." ”
Tang Lang was lifted by the sudden surprise and stimulation, helped He Shan's body to get up from the ground, and laughed at Qiu Tongfang and Zhao Feiyu: "Haha, what did I say, he just sent me gold coins!"
Qiu Tongfang sank like water: "Useless thing!" His fists clenched his green tendons and exposed, and he raised his hand to cover He Shan with a white light, and quickly woke him up.
He Shan shook his head and got up from the ground: "Senior, I'm ......" Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly turned pale, and he stammered: "The staff...... The staff is gone!"
Qiu Tongfang's eyes widened, and he rushed into the ring with a strong stride, grabbed He Shan's collar, and asked loudly: "What did you say?
He Shan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and when he glanced at Tang Lang on the side, he hurriedly said: "This kid must be making trouble! Tell me quickly, where did you hide the senior's staff? Hurry up and hand it over, otherwise you will get into a big disaster!"
He Shan rushed up to catch Tang Lang, but Tang Lang dodged sideways, and said in a cold voice: "What kind of double reed are you two singing? What kind of magic wand, how do I know!"
The staff is extremely precious, and even Qiu Tongfang himself is reluctant to use it often, if it weren't for He Shan's hard work, he wouldn't lend it to him at all, if he really lost it, I am afraid that he would be offended to the extreme, and his future academy career might be drawn because of this.
In order to get rid of the guilt, He Shan could only put the charge on Tang Lang: "There were only two of us in the ring just now, I fainted just now, you must have taken advantage of the chaos to hide the staff, hurry up and hand it over, how can you embezzle the senior's things?"
Qiu Tongfang also said viciously: "If it is really you who hid it, I advise you to hand it over quickly, otherwise the matter will be big, not only will you be expelled from the academy, but I will also sue you to the kingdom court and sentence you to the felony of stealing the staff!"
Tang Lang thought that the staff had been completely absorbed by the system, and he was not afraid to face the evidence at all, so he replied confidently: "Senior Qiu, do you have any evidence that I took the staff? The staff was used by He Shan before, obviously he didn't keep it well, what does it have to do with me? No matter where you sue you, you have to tell the evidence, if you don't take it, you don't take it!"
"It's not that you said you didn't take it! let me search my body, and when I search the staff out, see if you have anything else to say!" He Shan took advantage of the situation to step forward and search his body.
"Wait! What if you thief shouts to catch the thief and puts the staff on me under the pretext of searching my body? Besides, why search my body for no reason!" Tang Lang slid away with a sideways step and retorted.
Seeing that Tang Lang refused to comply, He Shan felt that the staff was put away by him, and shouted: "You are the thief who stole the staff!
"Tang Lang, let me ask one last time, if you took it, I won't investigate it if you hand it over now, but if you refuse to admit that you were searched out by me, you will probably spend most of your next life in the prison of the kingdom!" Qiu Tongfang's tone was gloomy.
Tang Lang took a deep breath and said slowly: "In order to prove my innocence, it's not impossible to search my body! But I can't be here, and I can't be searched by you, I must invite the teachers from the academy to search my body, and at the same time, I must ask the rest of the students in the hall to testify." If it turns out that I was wronged, you two must apologize to me in public!"
Qiu Tongfang saw that the other party was categorical, and hesitated slightly, but He Shan hurriedly replied: "It's useless for you to make more cutscenes, the staff must be on you." Senior Qiu, you are staring at this kid here, don't let him have a chance to transfer the stolen goods, I will go and ask the teacher to administer justice, and when the time comes, everyone will get the stolen goods to see what excuse he has!" Before He Shan's words fell, the person had already run out of the room to tell the teacher to come, and Qiu Tongfang had to stare at Tang Lang intently, for fear that he would hide the staff elsewhere.
Tang Lang's whole body was scorched black by the flames, and blisters had already bulged out in many places, and he didn't dare to use the Guiyuan Curse in front of outsiders, so he grinned and said: "Feiyu classmate, you help me find Dali, please ask him to invite the doctor from the academy's medical room to come, otherwise I will already be hurt to death before I can search my body!"
"Oh!" Zhao Feiyu was at a loss just now, but he only reacted when he was shouted by Tang Lang, and was about to go out when he was stopped by Qiu Tongfang.
"No need! I'll just cast a return spell for him!" Qiu Tongfang was worried that there would be too many people, so he transferred his staff, raised his hand and swayed a milky white light, Tang Lang suddenly felt a burst of coolness all over his body, and the burned place quickly recovered, and at the same time, there was a system prompt: "Xenogeneous energy injection, energy unit: 2 points."
After a while, He Shan came with two teachers and a large group of students, and Jiang Dali rushed to the front and shouted loudly: "You are not allowed to bully Tang Lang!"
Qiu Tongfang stopped him and bowed slightly to the two teachers: "Lecturer Yu, Lecturer Feng, please do justice for me!" The two teachers are the lecturers of the junior martial arts class, Yu Yangzhou and Feng Yuanming.
Yu Yangzhou had a prejudice against Tang Lang, and after the last class conflict, he was even more displeased with him, and suddenly said with a dark face: "Tang Lang, hurry up and hand over the staff! Don't mention the poor qualifications, how can you have such a despicable character, you dare to steal other people's staffs, and you will be severely punished." ”
Tang Lang was also angry when he heard this: "Lecturer Yu, you are the instructor of our martial arts class, why do you turn your elbow outward towards the students of the spell class?"
