Chapter 31: Conflict

"I made a promise with you at the end of the summer ~ dreams for the future ~ great hopes ~ don't forget ~ "

As soon as the alarm clock rang, Qi Xiyan immediately bounced up from the bed, startling the drunken boy who was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a book, thinking that he was sleepwalking!

It's time for a shame! Be sure to pass the pre-selection today!!

After everything was done, Qi Xiyan picked up his schoolbag and walked to the gate in a hurry, his eyes suddenly widened, he was stunned, stopped in front of the door, looked at the post-it notes pasted on it, his eyes looked very gentle, he was already surrounded by happiness.

Tearing off the post-it note, it says, "Brother, come on for today's pre-audition!" Don't be too nervous! You can definitely do it! Also, hurry up and get promoted to a one-star onmyoji! Then we'll be able to do the mission together! I'll wait for you!'

The handwriting hasn't dried yet, obviously, Qi Xiye has just come back not long ago, and she must have been tired after a night's task, but she still insisted on leaving a post-it note for Qi Xiyan to cheer him on, at this moment, Qi Xiyan felt that she was the happiest person in the world!

Sitting on the school bus to the qualifiers in high spirits, don't look at his bag looks flat and flat, in fact, Qi Xiyan stuffed a lot of snacks in it, if there is another eye-catching beauty next to him, then this trip will be perfect! It's a pity that it was Li Mo who was sitting next to him, and it didn't matter if he wasn't eye-catching, he actually ruined his ears...... In fact, it's not just him who is noisy, if he couldn't talk and the car could be quiet, Qi Xiyan would have shut him up a long time ago, otherwise who would want to suffer this kind of crime?

After chattering a lot, Li Mo said something that Qi Xiyan was interested in.

"Boss! During the Ninth School War, let's find a few more people to play together as a team! Li Mo said with a smile.

Nine School Wars? Isn't that a show by the elites of the onmyoji of various colleges?

Qi Xiyan asked in wonder, "Isn't the Nine School Battle only official onmyoji able to participate?" And only the elite can represent the school! ”

"Hey, hey! You don't know this, in fact, even trainee onmyoji can form a team to participate in the Nine School Battle! It's just that there is no hope of winning at all, so it has become like now, only the elite participates, how about it? Go? Li Mo looked at Qi Xiyan with anticipation, and inexplicably felt that as long as Qi Xiyan was there, he could win, but he had seen Qi Xiyan's power!

"That's next year, right? What are you anxious about? Let's focus on the Onmyoji assessment first! ”

"So, Boss, how are you preparing for today's pre-audition? There are as many as 10 kinds to take this time! It's really a record high! ”

"I'm quite happy with my current physical fitness." Qi Xiyan replied casually, and then began to enjoy the scenery outside the window, all the way the whole car was noisy, as if he was really traveling, his ears had a layer of calluses, and he was almost practicing the magic of reading in the city! I'm used to doing my own thing in the noise.

"Brother Yan, what are you talking about? It's not a physical education exam, what's the use of having high physical fitness? ”

Qi Xiyan pulled back his gaze from the window, looked at Li Mo's eyes full of doubts, raised his eyebrows, and asked with interest but lazily, "Huh?" So what's the test? Isn't it all about fighting when it comes to Onmyoji? ”

"Huh? No way? Brother Yan? Li Mo reached over and probed his forehead, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "I don't have a fever!" You don't really know what to pre-emptively take, do you? ”

After sorting out the content of the conversation just now, and thinking about it carefully, Qi Xiyan took a deep breath like a convulsion, and his eyes widened.

No way? I've been preparing for so long, I don't even know what I'm going to take the test! Obviously, the notice about the onmyoji assessment will be sent once a day, and there is a website link below, but I haven't clicked on it once......

Why didn't you remind me?

Well, he hadn't tested that kind of thing, and he didn't know what a web page was......

Seeing that he had just woken up from a dream, Li Mo had no choice but to tell him the content of the assessment.

The scenery in his eyes changed from the shock of lightning and thunder to lifeless despair, his head slowly lowered, his eyes staring down blankly, looking at his own innocence shattered.

In the face of such a Qi Xiyan, Li Mo couldn't cry or laugh, while worrying about Qi Xiyan, he was amused by him, Ma Daha, usually he kept talking about the assessment, but he didn't really understand it at all, what is this!

Comfort is still necessary, Li Mo pondered for a while, sorted out his words, and encouraged loudly: "Uh...... Boss, with your strength, you can definitely pass the pre-selection! Believe in yourself! ”

In fact, the ten pre-selected contents are not required, as long as the trainee onmyoji who goes to participate in the pre-selection has enough strength, he can ignore that kind of rigid thing, and Li Mo took this into account.

"Really?" The zombie slowly raised his head again, and then slowly grabbed Li Mo's shoulder, shook him weakly, and repeated again, "Really? ”

Before Li Mo could answer, a hoarse roar suddenly came from the front, as if he was going to eat people, "Who?" Who is so bold? Naked exams? Is the Onmyoji assessment such a child's play? It's really annoying to me! The other looked angry and walked over to the two of them angrily.

Soon, a person appeared in front of the two of them, this person was gray-haired, skinny, hunched at the waist, holding a wooden cane in his hand, an old man of sixty or seventy years old, and his eyes that had been deeply sunken were suddenly like goldfish eyes, and the picture was slightly terrifying.

This person Li Mo has heard of it, his name is Long Ming, he has been a farmer for half his life, and he accidentally became a trainee onmyoji ten years ago, but due to his limited qualifications, he went to participate in the onmyoji assessment every year for ten years, and he didn't pass the exam for ten years, and he was not promoted to a formal onmyoji, but he still insisted! Working hard and striving for that goal every day is very inspiring, but also very sad.

"Which kid said he was going to take the exam naked? The old man wants to see which genius is so dragged! Long Ming angrily tapped the floor with his cane, glanced at the people nearby, and finally locked on Qi Xiyan and Li Mo.

"Eh, this is Long Ming's senior, right? In fact, it's not a big deal, we're just joking, you calm down your anger first, it's our fault! Li Mo hurriedly came out to play a round and blocked between the two, because Qi Xiyan's eyes had already met Long Ming just now, which could be described as tense, and there was a feeling that he was about to fight.

"Humph! The old man doesn't eat your set! He pressed Li Mo back to his seat, stared at Qi Xiyan, his tone was very determined, his eyes were burning with raging fire, and there was a faint cold light, "Little rabbit cub, you want to take the exam naked, right?" ”

Seeing Qi Xiyan so faced, Long Ming was overjoyed and said, "Hehe! Lad! Today's punching bag is yours! ”

Qi Xiyan was speechless, why did someone come to find fault somehow? What's wrong with this world? Brother, are you still afraid that people will find fault? Anyway, if you're in a bad mood, just play with him!

With a chuckle, Qi Xiyan joked: "That's right, it's me, so what?" Is it illegal to take a naked exam? After a pause, he looked Long Ming up and down, smiled, and said, "Tut-tut, look at it like this, are you planning to eat me?" ”

"Who, who's going to eat your ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Qi Xiyan interrupted him, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "You're not from our school, are you?" It's our school bus, right? ”

He suddenly stood up and shouted at the leader in the hat who was sitting in front of him, "What fool put this old dog in and bites him?" ”

The man was sweating instantly, in fact, he was already sweating profusely when the two first started arguing, and kept praying that he wouldn't make things bigger, the man lowered the brim of his hat again, pretending not to hear, but he couldn't stop crying in his heart: "My little ancestor! You can make as much trouble as you like, but can you not get me involved...... If it weren't for the abbot to make me ......"

"You, you, you bastard! You're the dog! See if I don't kill you......" Long Ming directly picked up the crutch and poked it at Qi Xiyan's head in a fit of anger, but he was an old man after all, and his cultivation was not high, although the speed of the blow was not slow, it was not too fast, and Qi Xiyan grabbed the crutch at once.

Qi Xiyan said sneering while tug-of-war with him: "Yo~ Say a few words and start beating people!" It's like a roadside thug! Oh no, it's an old gangster! I'm sorry, a slip of the tongue! Thank you for your understanding! ”

Li Mo next to him looked straight in his eyes, is this person still the Qi Xiyan I know? It's ...... You won't be possessed, will you?

Long Ming was so angry that he couldn't pull him, so he took out a spell from his pocket and prepared to use the spell, and it was still in this car full of people!

Long Ming originally just wanted to find a reason and find someone to vent, but in fact, there was no naked test in the onmyoji assessment pre-selection, and the assessment items were basically some things that would be exercised by doing tasks or some personal qualifications, he was purely looking for faults!

In the past ten years, this period of onmyoji assessment is his most boring and irritable day every year, and every time he will find a young and frivolous trainee onmyoji to vent his unwillingness, especially those with high qualifications, as a result, today he met a young man who dared to retort against him and dare to ridicule him, he was already very angry, and now he really can't bear it!

"Stop! Long Ming! Do you still want to participate in the onmyoji pre-selection today? A majestic voice in front of him shouted.

Alas...... I can't show up now......

The leader wearing a hat walked over, his brows furrowed, his eyes stared at Long Ming with solemn eyes, and asked, "You know the rules that Onmyoji must abide by when using spells, right?" ”
