Chapter Eighty-Nine: Enemies in All Eyes
A new generation replaces the old.
In the inner courtyard, with the departure of the group of old students who had reached their age, places such as the Heavenly Incineration Gas Tower and the Dou Ji Pavilion, which were popular in the past, also seemed a little sparse.
However, the undercurrent of competition in the inner courtyard shows no signs of subsiding down, but is becoming more and more intense.
Whether it is the change of the position of the strong list, or the loss of some top veterans like pillars of many forces, resulting in a significant decrease in strength, and many changes in interests, these have made many people want to move and want to go further, the arena is now like a fire, and there are dozens of duels every day.
In this change, Momen is undoubtedly the biggest gain, the departure of several other Douwang students, so that the super forces of the Medicine Gang Sword Gate have fallen to a level, and they can no longer compete with Momen, and many of the interests and resources occupied by them can no longer be kept, and they are occupied by Momen, which attracts many strong people and alchemists to jump ship from other forces to Momen, and when all the dust settles, Momen has become a behemoth in the inner courtyard, overlooking other forces, and the members of the gate alone have more than two hundred people, accounting for almost one-sixth of the inner courtyard, Among them, there are many masters who are ranked on the strong list.
The outer courtyard is also very lively, and the annual inner courtyard competition is coming again, which makes these students with a little immaturity feel like they are completely ignited, and their morale is high.
In this competition, there are dark horses that have risen in the past and reached the finals, and there are also dazzling geniuses who sang all the way and got a place to enter the inner courtyard without accident.
However, in this atmosphere in full swing, there is a person who is not doing well, or even in torment......
The square used to hold the finals in the outer courtyard was already crowded with people at the beginning of the rising sun, and the sound sounded like thunder, making it difficult to talk to people, because as soon as the words were spoken, they were covered by other voices, and they could not even be heard standing next to them.
And when the students who reached the finals came one after another, the square seemed to explode, and the cry could shake the clouds in the sky.
Hu Jia, Wu Hao, and even Bai Shan, who had previously failed under Gatten, were one of the favorites to win the championship this year, and the appearance of each of them made the cheers in the field go to a higher level, and even many people were shouting their names loudly, which shows the high popularity, and they are worthy of being the people of the year in the outer courtyard.
However, when a pair of teenagers and girls appeared in the square, the atmosphere of the flowers suddenly changed, and all the calls suddenly stopped strangely, and one after another strange eyes fell on the handsome young man who was very close to Xiao Xun'er, and countless whispers immediately sounded in the field.
"Is he Xiao Yan? The previous performance was remarkable, but it couldn't be compared with Xun'er's schoolgirl, I don't know why Xun'er's schoolgirl likes him......"
"Even Wen Hao, who is dealing with the Seven Star Doushi, has won very reluctantly, this kind of strength can only be called outstanding, and it is too different from Wu Hao's influential figures."
In the face of such a scene, tens of thousands of strange eyes, even if Xiao Yan experienced three years of white eyes and sneers when he lost his talent, he couldn't suppress his emotions, his delicate face was a little distorted, his eyes were full of unwillingness, and there was a trace of resentment.
"Damn, if it wasn't for being hit hard that day, and now he hasn't recovered, and he can only exert part of his strength, how could he suffer such ridicule." Xiao Yan thought fiercely, and the hands that were tucked into his sleeves clenched hard, making a crisp sound.
Xiao Xun'er next to her showed a hint of apology on her face, gently pulled Xiao Yan's sleeve, and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, if I hadn't helped you sign up for the Inner Courtyard Competition without authorization, you wouldn't be so embarrassed." ”
Looking at Xiao Xun'er, who was dressed in a cyan dress and was as elegant as a green lotus, Xiao Yan's mood couldn't help but soothe a little, he shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "I was too careless, I didn't expect to meet two terrifying powerhouses on the periphery of the Black Horn Domain, and I was injured by them, which led to the current situation......
Seeing Xiao Yan come out of the negative emotions just now, Xiao Xun'er burst into a faint smile and walked towards the field with him, no one saw it, and the cold light in her beautiful eyes flashed and was extremely cold.
"It's been a few days since Master Ling went out to investigate, and the results should be found out, and I won't let go of anyone who hurt Brother Xiao Yan!" Xiao Xun'er murmured in her heart.
In the other corners of the square, Hu Jia, Wu Hao, and Bai Shan all looked at this side, their eyes were a little scrutinized, obviously Xiao Yan's close relationship with Xiao Xun'er had already provoked the most outstanding people in these outer courtyards for him.
In the crowd, a group of people gathered, many of them were finalists, Garema and the muscular and smiling Garebili were among them, and they still seemed to be in the core of the group, and it seemed that they were mixing well in the outer courtyard.
"Everyone knows that someone in our family has entered the inner courtyard and is doing very well! Wait for the finals, no matter who touches Xiao Yan, he will give me a beating! After entering the inner courtyard, I will definitely not treat everyone badly! Garema said viciously.
The young people of the Galie family in Canaan Academy already knew about the catastrophe that happened in the family a year ago, so they naturally had hostile eyes towards everyone in the Xiao family.
"Good!" The students who entered the finals responded with excitement in their eyes.
As the light gradually became hotter, all the finalists had already arrived in the square.
Hu Qian and the three gray-clothed old men sat in the referee's seat, and at this moment they glanced at each other, and then nodded slightly.
"It's time."
"Let's get started!"
Hu Qian stood up and looked at the crowd of students in the square, with a kind smile on his face.
"Please invite the top 50 students to enter the venue."
All the students in the square were stunned, even those who had obtained places to enter the inner courtyard, and looked at the referee's seat suspiciously, wondering why Hu Qian called all the people up, which seemed to be different from the previous finals......
However, doubts are doubts, and after reacting, people kept coming out of the square and coming to the competition table in the field.
After everyone gathered, Hu Qian's old face smiled and said: "The rules of the previous Inner Court Competitions are not much different, and some are too monotonous and repetitive, so I decided that this Inner Court Competition will be conducted in a melee mode, fifty students will appear on the competition stage at the same time, and the last five people who are still standing on the stage are the top five!" ”
Everyone was in an uproar, this Inner Courtyard Competition was too unexpected, and even those students who entered the finals were mostly frowning, because this meant that the opponent they faced would not be just one person, but might be besieged by many people!
"That rule seems good to us!" On the side of the stage, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, he was seriously injured and could not exert his full strength, and being able to team up with Xiao Xun'er undoubtedly relieved a lot of pressure.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you are too happy, the result is completely opposite to what you imagined, our current situation is very bad......" Xiao Xun'er's lips moved lightly, the expression on her face was a little helpless, and her onion fingers swept over and pointed to the side.
"Look around."
Xiao Yan looked along the crystal white jade finger, and the eyes that made contact with him were all hostile eyes, the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched, his smile was a little bitter, and said, "This is ...... What's going on? ”
