That's right, Situ Nan and Zhang Ping didn't completely end their life in Qinglong Academy, they just ushered in a holiday in the academy.

This kind of vacation will be ushered in once a year after the students have been in the academy for more than half a year, so that the students can get out of the atmosphere of cultivation in the academy all the time, and go to the mainland to see more people and things, so that they can improve their knowledge.

After all, if you can improve your cultivation all the way behind closed doors, those big families and big forces will not send a bunch of people out every once in a while to walk on the continent and experience.

And most of these students will take this opportunity to go back to their homes to see, which can be regarded as an opportunity to save their relatives.

Situ Nan was not going to go out, after all, there was still a Kong Fan eyeing him outside, but according to the news fed back by the academy and Yingchen, Kong Fan should not be able to spare his hand to attack him recently, and after repeated assurances, Situ Nan decided to go back to the Xuanwu Empire, just to see Situ Gong's current situation.

But unlike Situ Nan, Ouyang Lan was still in the academy at this time, after all, the profession of astrologer was very different from ordinary monks, and a good stargazing environment would be of great benefit to the improvement of their cultivation.

Although Ouyang Lan expressed to Situ Nan that she wanted to go out with him, due to the request of some teachers in the astrology academy, and she herself was at a critical moment in the progress of astrologers, so she still did not travel with Situ Nan.

The strange thing is that in the past few months, Situ Nan and Ouyang Lan have not met too many times, but every time they meet, Situ Nan feels that Ouyang Lan has changed, but Ouyang Lan's cultivation and other aspects are roughly similar to before, so he has not been sure where the other party's changes are.

As for Yingchen, he naturally returned to the Shadow Clan, with the return of Shadow Jie, the Shadow Clan currently has a lot of things, and he, the next patriarch, needs to go back and be familiar with it.

However, Zhang Ping is different from Yingchen, after Zhang Feng sent the news that it was inconvenient to accept Zhang Ping at present, he found his boss Tunan and prepared to go to the Xuanwu Empire with him.

First, he can increase his knowledge, and he can also protect Situ Nan on the side, and his cultivation has now been promoted to the existence of the peak of entering the room, and now he has a lot of killer skills, so that he will not look a little weak like before.

After putting away his emotions, Situ Nan and Zhang Ping boarded the academy and headed towards the imperial capital of the Blue Dragon Empire.

Riding the birds, Situ Nan and Zhang Ping soon crossed the mountains and returned to the capital of the Blue Dragon Empire.

At this time, people came and went in the imperial city, as prosperous as usual, and Zhang Ping and Situ Nan had not seen such a lively scene for a long time, so they couldn't help but stop in place for a while.

After a while, someone found Situ Nan's face.

"Situ Gongzi, my store manager wants to ask Gongzi to move for a while. The one who walked in front of Situ Nan was a beautiful woman, listening to the other party's title of "store manager", Situ Nan had a guess in his heart.

"Your store manager is surnamed Wu?"

Situ Nan looked at the other party and asked.

"Exactly. ”

"Then please lead the way. ”

"Okay, Childe, please come with me. ”

As he spoke, the other party turned around and led the way for Situ Nan, and Situ Nan and Zhang Ping also followed each other's footsteps and walked forward.

Zhang Ping didn't speak until Situ Nan finished talking with the other party, "Why did someone come to the door as soon as he came out?

When Situ Nan heard this, he smiled slightly, "Brother Zhang, do you remember the previous store manager Wu?"

"Oh, do you mean her? Is this the beauty intentional? Hehe, you kid can be very blessed. ”

Listening to Zhang Ping's words, Situ Nan found that since he made the other party's friend, the other party's nature seemed to be gradually letting go, and some things in his bones were usually released intentionally or unintentionally, saying words like this.

However, in this regard, Situ Nan was just a little helpless in his heart, but at the same time he was a little happy, because the other party's current appearance at least showed that the other party was not as autistic as before, and looked much more agile, as a friend of the other party, Situ Nan was also very happy about this.

But even so, Situ Nan would not let the other party talk nonsense, and hurriedly stopped, "Brother Zhang, where are you talking about this, I am just friends with Store Manager Wu, if there is anything else to say, it is that I have some business dealings with her, the most, but there is no more, don't talk nonsense when I see Store Manager Wu later." ”

"Understand, why are you still shy. ”

"I ......" Situ Nan just wanted to refute, but when he saw the smile on Zhang Ping's face, the words in his heart dispersed, snorted coldly, and then ignored the other party.

Seeing Situ Nan's appearance, Zhang Ping smiled, and then didn't say anything more.

Soon, under the leadership of the people in front of them, Situ Nan and Zhang Ping came to the shop in front of the Qinglong Empire's Imperial City, Situ Nan could see that although the location of the store was still here at this time, the total area of the store was a little larger than before, and it seemed that in the past half a year, Wuyang's business was still doing very well.

Coming to a little red door, a figure full of charm appeared in front of Situ Nan and Zhang Ping, releasing a mature charm on her, coupled with the edification of the superior for a long time, her temperament became more extraordinary, and the eyes of the passing crowd couldn't help but be attracted by her.

Seeing this person, Situ Nan took two steps forward and said, "Store Manager Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Hearing Situ Nan's words, Wu Yang was not happy, and his originally smiling face suddenly became extremely aggrieved, "Hey, I haven't seen you for half a year, Situ Gongzi is so unfamiliar with me, it seems that I am indeed an old man." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he hurriedly said, "Where is Store Manager Wu?"

"Then do you remember what you called me at the beginning?" Wu Yang heard this, his phoenix eyes widened, and he looked at Situ Nan and said.

"Isn't it just ......" Situ Nan suddenly recalled his former title, so he hurriedly changed his words, "It's me who is not good, the title of Wu shopkeeper is indeed a lot, and please Wu Yang, don't be surprised." ”

Hearing Situ Nan remove the word "store manager", Wu Yang's face immediately returned to brightness, and he said with a smile, "That's right, Tu Nan Gongzi." ”

Listening to the name he had used, Situ Nan couldn't help but feel a little dazed for a while, the situation half a year ago was plausible compared to this time.

But in the blink of an eye, Situ Nan returned to normal, looked at Wu Yang and said, "I don't know what happened to me and Brother Zhang?"

When Wu Yang heard this, he said a little unhappily, "Tu Nan, what you said, can't I still find you to talk about the past?" Okay, let's go talk first." ”

Wu Yang suddenly changed the topic and said, Situ Nan heard this, looked around, and found that because of his conversation with Wu Yang, the surrounding crowd had slowly approached here, if a few of them did not leave, I am afraid it would cause a congestion.

So Situ Nan and Zhang Ping left to follow Wu Yang and walked into a little red, and after entering the familiar room, the eyes of the crowd outside were finally cut off.

After entering the room, Wu Yang didn't laugh with Situ Nan like before, but got down to business.

"I just want to tell you one thing this time, which is about the Kingdom of Situ. ”

"Huh?" Situ Nan frowned when he heard this, "What's wrong?"

"I just received the news yesterday, it is said that a medium kingdom of the Blue Dragon Empire is preparing to attack the Situ Kingdom. ”

"Medium Kingdom Shot?" As soon as Situ Nan heard this, he thought of what Situ Gong had told him before, about the hostile forces of their family and his mother in this life.

But then, a question appeared in Situ Nan's heart, "Although the two countries can tolerate a few middle kingdoms fighting each other, this must also be in a state of adjacency and equal strength, right? ”

When Wu Yang heard this, he explained, "Do you remember the exercise cheats you asked me to bring to the Situ Kingdom before?"

"Of course I do. ”

"After obtaining these cultivation resources, the development speed of the Situ Kingdom has increased significantly, and now its strength is almost the same as that of the ordinary middle kingdom, and you should know that the primary kingdom needs to go through a test sometimes in order to rise to the middle kingdom. ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he was confused for a while, and then suddenly said, "Fighting with a hostile medium kingdom?"

"That's right! Although this kind of request has not been taken seriously in recent years, as long as the overall strength meets the requirements of the middle kingdom, it can be naturally promoted, but I don't know what the price of the middle kingdom that launched the challenge has paid, so that the Xuanwu Empire actually agreed to this request. ”

"Isn't the Xuanwu Empire afraid of chilling its subordinate kingdoms by doing this?"

When Wu Yang heard this, he shook his head and said, "Actually, it's no wonder that the Xuanwu Empire, in fact, this matter, the Situ Kingdom agreed." ”

"Huh?" Situ Nan was stunned when he heard this.

Looking at Situ Nan's puzzled expression, Wu Yang continued, "It is said that Situ Gong of the Situ Kingdom personally agreed to have a showdown with this medium kingdom of the Blue Dragon Empire.

However, considering that the two countries suffered a lot of casualties in the war, the two sides did not choose the ordinary national war, but chose the ring to face off in order to determine the outcome of the war. ”

"Father agreed?" Situ Nan was puzzled for a while, then thought of his mother, and immediately guessed why Situ Gong would agree to this battle.

As for the ring battle in Wuyang's mouth, it is generally a battle between two hostile countries that cannot be reconciled with each other, so that the people of their own countries will not be hurt too much.

This kind of ring battle is usually fought by the top combat power in the country, considering that it is a battle between a medium kingdom and a quasi-middle kingdom, this kind of ring battle will be divided into three levels.

The first thing that took place was the Eagle War, which showed the younger generation of the country, and the age of the monks participating in the war must not exceed eighteen years old!

Ten rounds of battle are decided, and the participating players cannot play again, but if there is a 5-5 tie, an extra match will be played, and in the extra game, it is up to you to decide whether to send a monk who has played before to fight.

After the Eagle War, there was a talent war, also known as the youth war, which required that the young of the combatants should not exceed forty years old!

As with the previous Eagle Fights, the exhibitors are still not allowed to re-enter unless they are in the play-offs.

And after that, it is the pinnacle battle to show the country's cutting-edge combat power.

In the pinnacle battle, there is no age requirement for the contestants, whether you are a three-year-old child or a white-haired old man, as long as you have enough strength, you can participate in the battle.

And in this battle, it is not like before, the winner is determined by the victory, in this battle, there is only one comparison, that is, cutting-edge combat power!

Therefore, in this battle, a single-player challenge mode will be adopted, and the monks on that side can stand in the ring until the end, and no one can defeat the other to win.

Since the contestants in this competition will have enough time to recover their state every time they participate in a battle, this battle is generally a battle to determine the outcome of the battle, and the two forces each choose the strongest of their own countries to carry out this national battle.

After three battles, the one who wins the most battles will win the national war, and the various treaties made by the two sides before that will also be jointly supervised and enforced by the two empires after the battle, so there is no situation of breaking the treaty after losing.

In history, there have been countless national wars of this type, and some of them directly bet their own countries in the treaty, and once they lose, they will only end up ruining the country.

However, some bet very little, and such battles are generally just exchanges between the two countries in the name of national wars.

But what the Situ Kingdom will experience at this time will naturally not be such a peaceful situation.

"That's right," Wu Yang nodded, "It's not so much that Situ Gong agreed to this gambling fight, but that the promoter of this gambling fight already has him, otherwise the Xuanwu Empire would not have agreed to this battle so easily." ”

Hearing Wu Yang say this, the doubts in Situ Nan's heart disappeared a lot, and at the same time, in his heart, there was more certainty about why Situ Gong did this.

"When is the war going on?"

"According to the news that it has come back, the first Eagle Battle will be held tomorrow!"

"So fast?"

"Yes, when I got the news yesterday, I was also surprised by the speed of this national war, if it weren't for knowing that you would leave the Blue Dragon Academy today and return here, I would have sent someone to the academy to find you yesterday. ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed slightly, if the Eagle Battle is held tomorrow, the second talent battle will not be held until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, so if he wants to rush back, it will be too late.

Thinking like this, the eagerness in her heart was to show a trace of Situ Nan's face, and Wu Yang quickly sensed this emotion, so she said to Situ Nan, "The teleportation array to Situ Kingdom is ready, are you on the way?"

When Situ Nan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Wu Yang, he knew that the teleportation array that Wu Yang was talking about was not a formation that could go straight to the Situ Kingdom, but at least two or three transit teleportation arrays to be able to send him to the middle kingdom closest to the Situ Kingdom, that is, the Sima Kingdom that he had been to.

Across the two empires to arrange these, even if Wu Yang is a little red Imperial City branch owner, it is not easy to complete these in one day, so for Wu Yang's love, Situ Nan also silently remembered it in his heart.

In fact, even if Wu Yang doesn't prepare this, Situ Nan will remember the help that the other party gave him, after all, if he didn't know the news, I'm afraid he wouldn't go directly to the Situ Kingdom, but would travel around the mainland, and then return to the Situ Kingdom, and by that time, this national war would have already ended.

Sensing Situ Nan's eyes, Wu Yang smiled slightly, "Hehe, don't forget, you helped me a lot more than this before." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he didn't say anything more, and after glancing at her gratefully, he turned his head to Zhang Ping, who had been snubbed by him for a long time, and said, "Brother Zhang, you also heard the matter, you are ......"

Without waiting for Situ Nan to finish speaking, Zhang Ping interrupted, "Of course I went with you, can I still run away by myself in case of trouble?"

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed his head slightly, and he didn't say much, after all, he and Zhang Ping have been friends for more than half a year, and there is no need to say much about the emotions between each other.

"Wu Yang, then I'll go back now, and as for the old things, I'll talk about it another day. ”

"This is natural," Wu Yang said, and handed Situ Nan a token, "This is the token in our little red, you will go to the teleportation array of the Blue Dragon Emperor City later, take this to our little red office, and someone will help you deal with the rest of the matter, if it weren't for me still having some things here, it would be inconvenient to leave, so I went with you." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he was not pretentious, took the token in Wu Yang's hand and said, "Okay! It's not appropriate for you to go, after all, you are a little red store manager, how can you take a position to participate in the national war between countries." ”

Hearing this, Wu Yang sighed, if she was the helmsman of a little red, in fact, it would be nothing for her to go to such a place, but she was just a branch manager, in this case, she naturally could not easily express her position between two countries.

Of course, if she doesn't care about the blame from a little red after the fact, but whether it is for herself or for Situ Nan, it is the best choice for her to continue to stay in a little red inside.

didn't say more, although the time was not very tight, Situ Nan still hoped to return to the Situ Kingdom as soon as possible, so after saying a hurried farewell to Wu Yang, he walked towards the teleportation array of the Blue Dragon Emperor City with Zhang Ping.

After arriving here, Situ Nan looked left and right, and immediately found an office with a little red sign, and then immediately walked over, and then shook the token given by Wu Yang in front of the other party's principal.

After seeing the token in Situ Nan's hand, the principal immediately said to Situ Nan with a flattering smile, "This guest of honor is going to Situ Kingdom, right?"

Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly.

"That's right, Store Manager Wu has already given us instructions, I'll take you there now. ”

Looking at the eagerness on Situ Nan's face, this person was also clever, and without saying anything more, he immediately took Situ Nan towards the location where the teleportation array was.

After coming here, this person took out another token with a little red symbol from his arms, gestured to the person guarding the teleportation array, and then said, "A little red requisition a teleportation array as usual. ”

After seeing this person's token, the other party bowed slightly, and then waved his hand, asking the other guards to make way for Situ Nan and the others.

Then this person followed Situ Nan and Zhang Ping to board the teleportation array together.

After perceiving Situ Nan's puzzled gaze, the man explained, "The martial arts shopkeeper said that he needs to send you all the way to the Situ Kingdom, so I will follow you all the way." ”

When Situ Nan heard this, he bowed his head slightly, so that he would not need to communicate with a little red person in the future.

After the three of them boarded the teleportation array, the soldiers guarding the formation intercepted the others, and then they opened the formation and teleported the three Situ Nan and the people who were already on the teleportation array before.

After the light of the teleportation array lit up, Situ Nan caught a glimpse of the people who were queuing up outside the teleportation array pointing and pointing, and some even clashed with those soldiers.

After that, the scene in front of him changed to the scene he had seen before, the scene inside the teleportation array.

After perceiving the use of his own queue cutting privilege, the annoyance of others and the surprise of those who had already boarded the teleportation array, Situ Nan couldn't help but slightly praise Wu Yang's arrangement.

In fact, to put it mildly, in this era of teleportation arrays all over the place, the convenience that Wu Yang can bring him is just that he doesn't have to queue up and wait when he takes the teleportation array, relatively speaking, a teleportation can only save him an hour of time at most, after all, if the number of people is not enough, he can also directly use spirit stones to buy other positions and let the teleportation array open.

But this kind of behavior of cutting in line can calm Situ Nan's slightly impatient heart, after all, with these few hours of saving, Situ Nan's arrival time will be significantly earlier than expected.

In the following teleportation time, the principal introduced to Situ Nan, "We will first take this teleportation array directly to a medium-sized royal city on the border of the Xuanwu Empire, and then we will take the teleportation array there to the Xuanwu Emperor City, and then from the Xuanwu Emperor City to the middle kingdom closest to the Situ Kingdom, that is, a place called Sima Kingdom, and then there, the martial arts shopkeeper arranged birds for you, and you can take the birds directly to the Situ Kingdom." ”

Situ Nan bowed slightly when he heard this, "I understand." ”

After the other party finished speaking, he stepped aside and silently waited for the end of the teleportation.

But Zhang Ping opened his mouth at this time, "Situ, you don't have to be too anxious, won't the Eagle War start tomorrow?" According to our current speed, we will definitely be able to reach you within tomorrow, so don't worry, if you panic, then it is better not to go back!"

Hearing this, Situ Nan bowed slightly, "Brother Zhang, I know that my father can agree to this national war, and I think I have a certain degree of certainty, so I didn't worry too much, but after all, this is a big matter about me, so I must be present." ”

"Well, it's good to figure it out! Okay, I won't bother you, just be quiet. ”

After speaking, Zhang Ping also took two steps away from Situ Nan and gave him an independent space.

After the two people around him walked away, Situ Nan continued his previous state of thinking.

......
