Volume 1 The Gathering of the Storm Chapter 57 Before the Match
"Why Qin Mengsheng is famous for his leapfrogging challenges, have you ever thought about it? Not only because of his own diligence, but also because most of the opponents he chose were paper tigers with empty realms piled up with family resources. These little paper tigers have received a lot of compliments since they were young because of their realm advantages, and after listening to them a lot, they really believe that they are geniuses like none in a million, but they don't know that this kind of thing is 'realm', and it is also a lie of the same old guys. β
Chu Zhaoye's sharp remarks made several people fall into deep thought.
Feng Huan accepted Chu Zhaoye's words relatively quickly, after all, when he came to the Celestial Realm, when he came to the Celestial Realm, he would always have some of his own thoughts in the face of the new rules and new ideas of the strange world in front of him, and he knew that he had to look at it dialectically.
But his companions are different, they know the world at an age of ignorance, and they only believe what the world is like when they are told it. Even if they have grown up to the age of vision and opinion, it will be difficult to accept hearing about a world that is completely different from what they used to know.
"Let you forget the realm, forget the realm, just don't listen. Look at you, when I heard me say that the realm of those two people, their expressions are as if they have seen ghosts. Why, I didn't expect that apart from you, I would be in the middle of the guard at the age of sixteen or seventeen to catch a lot of them?" Chu Zhaoye smiled as if he had something to say, "Or are some of you this kind of 'genius' who is smashed out with money, and your self-esteem was hurt by my words?"
Chu Zhaoye's first half of the sentence sounded extremely empty-hearted, he stole a glance at the others, Yun Yan and He Qingying's faces did not change much, and Nan Hua put on a face that was not very convinced, but just now he was still righteous and felt that it was impossible for him to win the lord's Luo Han, and his eyes were firmer at this moment.
That's it. Chu Zhaoye began to walk out with his hands behind his back, and finally left a sentence, "I don't care what means you use to rob the lord, but as long as you lose a seat in the position of the lord, you don't have to come to see me again." β
After speaking, Chu Zhaoye's figure disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
Nanhua immediately fell, lying on the guardrail of the martial arts arena, and said listlessly: "This is too strict, I just escaped from the forest, not to mention recuperating from my injuries, and I haven't rested for a moment, and I have put forward such a high demand." β
"Don't you have to fight, what are you complaining about?" It's me who should be most worried......" Luo Han's words didn't have much strength, "What you're afraid of, it's all about guarding the middle realm, and it's not pulling me to join in the fun." Let Qingying be more stable than me, I really don't know what Mr. thinks......"
"Sir, we've already arranged this, so let's discuss the countermeasures. Feng Huan looked at the central martial arts arena and said, "I think that Wei Kai and Gu Xiao are still working hard, and they are still training in the field at this hour, and they don't seem to be the kind of people that Mr. despises." β
"In any case, the enemy cannot be underestimated. Yunyan also said.
The five of them were really tired after fighting in the Jianhu Forest for more than half a month, thinking that they would have to fight again tomorrow, and now was the only time to spare, they no longer spoke, but stood quietly by the guardrail, although their eyes were looking at the ring, their hearts were thinking.
After watching it like this for a while, in the ring, Wei Kai also noticed their gaze.
"Who those people were, stared at us for a long time. He asked his friend in confusion.
"They're the students of the weird-tempered Mr. Chu of the academy, and I bumped into them just outside the academy gate. The person who was asked followed Wei Kai's gaze to confirm, and then lowered his voice and said, "Do you remember when school first started, Mr. told us not to go to Jianhu Forest? Many students are spreading that these five people were left in the forest by Mr. Chu some time ago, and Mr. Jiang, who teaches us in literature, secretly took someone to find someone for many days without news, but they actually came back by themselves. β
The incomprehension on Wei Kai's face disappeared suddenly, and he pulled Gu Xiao beside him to whisper a few words, telling her about it.
Gu Xiaoliu's eyes were starry, and when he heard about such a new thing, he instantly became interested, grabbed Wei Kai's hands and shook them.
"Where are these people? No one dares to challenge me again today, I'm bored, it sounds like a new opponent with good strength!"
Wei Kai's friend pointed diagonally upwards and said, "Standing in front of the founder's residence, that is also their schoolhouse." β
"What did they come from?"
"Rest assured, as far as I know, they don't have any background, they are all from other places or rural towns. The friend sneered, "It's just that the college didn't have a plan to arrange a school for Mr. Chu's students, and suddenly there were so many people who wanted to choose Mr. Chu, and it just so happened that the college intended to use this long-vacant house this year, and Mr. Chu was familiar with the founder, so he arranged for them to live in." β
"Alas, I obviously chose Mr. Chu at the beginning, but Mr. Chu rejected it. Gu Xiao puffed out his mouth, and three points of grievance appeared in his eyes, "I don't know how these lucky people persuaded Mr. to keep them, I'm so enviousββ"
The friend was shocked: "How could you think of choosing Mr. Chu?" Let's just say that these five people, if you look at their miserable appearance, it is estimated that they have suffered a lot in the forest, and they will be thankful that they can escape alive." Every student under his command has been tossed miserably, and he has been taught by Qin Mengsheng for so many years. β
"A Qin Mengsheng is enough to prove Mr. Chu's ability. Gu Xiao turned around, squinted his eyes and looked at the five people diagonally above, they were indeed injured, and the clothes on their bodies were also tattered, and they were completely embarrassed. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, "They should also participate in the Abyss Star Competition, right?"
Wei Kai also followed her and said lightly: "The star of the abyss has a monthly review, and in the past eight years, only Qin Mengsheng three years ago has managed to occupy one of the positions of chairman throughout the year. β
"Oh roar?" Gu Xiao cracked his mouth and laughed, revealing a tiger tooth, "Then Mr. Chu must have arranged for them to compete for the champion...... Now I have a chance to perform well in front of Mr. Chu!"
"Don't underestimate the enemy. Wei Kai reminded briefly.
"Got it, got it. Gu Xiao waved his hand slightly, his eyes moved, and then he touched Wei Kai's arm with his elbow, "Hey, let's say hello to these new friends first!"
As he spoke, Gu Xiao beckoned to Feng Huan and the others.
Seeing this, Wei Kai sighed briefly, but still followed Yaoyao with a fist salute.
At that time, Nanhua was hanging on the railing with his arms outstretched, Luo Han was bored and yawned, Yunyan and He Qingying chatted with each other, and they only looked at the field from time to time.
And Feng Huan was leaning against the railing in a lazy posture, only tilting his head to observe for a while, and wondering if he could see the scene of Wei Kai and Gu Xiao fighting.
The two of them suddenly greeted this side, which was something that the few people in the wind and hustle did not expect.
Although they didn't know why, after looking at each other a few times in confusion, they quickly thought of returning the salute.
However, before they could adjust their postures, the two had already turned around and left the arena.
Feng Huan was confused, he was sure that they had never seen each other before, but looking at the appearance of the girl who smiled at her, she still looked very happy when she greeted her?
The others were also at a loss, apparently unaware of the situation as well.
"Don't overthink it, get some rest tonight. β
After Yunyan called softly, the sleepiness that had accumulated for many days was stimulated by this sound, and in the yawn one after another, everyone went back to the room one after another.
Unlike when in Jianhu, you can only maintain a shallow sleep, and you will wake up at the slightest movement, and you have to take turns to keep vigil in case of accidents.
This night, a few people who haven't touched the bed for more than half a month have no dreams all night and sleep very peacefully.
Early the next morning.
Feng Huan walked into the central martial arts arena very early, and there were only four or five people chatting in the field, talking about the matter of the Abyss Star.
He deliberately sat down not far from them, and began to pretend to nap and eavesdrop on them.
The topic they are talking about should be whether there will be any changes in today's champions.
A young man said: "It's impossible to say whether Liang Xiao's champion can keep it, but Wei Kai Gu Xiao must be stable." Today may be the same as yesterday, and no one even dares to challenge it. β
Another teenager also said: "The strength of the two of them can be said to be the fault line leader, but it is not stable." β
"With the talents of these two, it is estimated that they will meet the admission standards at the age of thirteen or fourteen, why do they have to come at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It is simply a one-of-one-way effort that increases the competitive pressure among our freshmen. β
"Hey, if I had this talent, I would have to hide it for a few more years and come back, so that everyone could be my foil!"
"You two don't daydream!" a young girl interrupted their discussion, "If you want me to see, today's chairmanship may have to be replaced!"
"How is that possible?" both teenagers laughed.
The girl snorted a little proudly and said, "There are powerful characters going to play today, Sister Gu Xiao told me personally." β
"You actually know Gu Xiao, are you fooled by us?"
"What a powerful character, I can't believe it if I can endure it for two days before I attack!"
The two teenagers are noisy and shouting.
Feng Huan straightened his ears when he heard the words "powerful character". If there are such characters who have not yet appeared, they will inevitably become their opponents, and it will be useful for them to find out some information in advance.
Unbeknownst to him, the girl spoke again, but said, "Haven't you heard that the five students who Mr. Chu lost came back from Jianhu Forest yesterday. Sister Gu Xiao said that if those people came to attack, she was not very sure. β
Feng Huan almost burst out in surprise when he heard it, awesome characters, do you mean them?
"I've heard about it, but none of us have seen the skills of those people, how can we conclude that today's battle for the lord is a big change?" a young man was puzzled.
As soon as this question came out, the wind heard the girl's proud laughter again.
"Sister Gu Xiao said that she and Wei Kai have discussed, if they attack today, let them fight the lord for a day!"
