Chapter 7 Exhibition Matches
When resting at night, the fire beads in Ning Ran's body were slowly spinning, and on its surface, strange patterns were faintly revealed in the pale red light, which were similar to the runes carved on the stone pillars in front of the temple.
The energy in his body was working under the guidance of the fire beads, and the injuries from the fight with Wu Yan were gradually recovering.
On the lake in the center of the Eastern Forest, a white flame condensed in the air, looking in the direction of Ning Ran.
Taking advantage of Uncle Ai's recent relaxation of his management, Ning Ran sneaked to a restaurant in the commercial area and worked in the back kitchen. In his spare time, he can also let the chef teach himself how to stir-fry, and he is completely immersed in the world of controlling the flames of cooking, and he can't extricate himself. Anyway, now that he can even beat an adult monk, he can't help but feel a little fluttery.
Uncle Ai was very big-hearted, thinking that Ning Ran had worked hard to read the book for a few days and defeated Wu Yan, so he could seriously embark on the path of cultivation and go to participate in the palace avant-garde test. Ning Ran's qualification for the competition had already been approved, and he was relieved that he was soft and hard at the high priest, and forced Ning Ran to remember the time of the competition. Uncle Ai asked Ning Ran to practice hard at ordinary times, and if he needed anything, he returned to the medical hall to continue to treat people.
The selection will be based on the overall strength ranking of the contestants in each district on weekdays, and the level challenge will be carried out in each district first. Basically, everyone can meet opponents with similar strength and have a fair one-on-one competition, but Ning Ran, who just finished frying the spicy beef tenderloin and rubbed his hands and ran to the competition, is different, his recent amazing record has not been rated in the comprehensive strength ranking, so his ranking in the South Region is the penultimate one.
Who told him to keep not making an assessment and waste his cultivation? But now it seems that everyone is very envious of him.
Ning Ran, who was standing on the stage for the upgrade challenge, was still thinking about what dishes to practice in the restaurant at night, and how he would be more and more confident in finding a chef job in the future, etc., and laughed from the bottom of his heart. The smile of the mystery and his former genius status made the monks who were above him abandon the game one after another, leaving Ning Ran, who was smirking and smirking, standing on the stage and winning without a fight.
Is there such a good thing? Ning Ran's heart blossomed, this is the so-called bloodless blade. His record rose from the bottom of the South Division to the top 100 in the South Region within this month, and he directly participated in the final competition of the three regions.
Mu Ge is envious, jealous and hateful about this, this is also too cool!
Uncle Ai has been paying attention to Ning Ran's record, and has not paid attention to how Ning Ran won. The results of repeated victories made him feel proud, and he praised this kid's success when he met people.
Also complaining about the high priest and the patriarch, who lasted for nearly a month, Ning Ran actually entered the top 100 without a real battle, which was very detrimental to his growth. The two patriarchs discussed for a moment and decided to start an exhibition match between the three regions before the final battle, while the southern region sent Mu Ge to fight against Ning Ran to frustrate his spirit.
If it was the waste wood from before, Mu Ge was naturally reluctant to touch him. And now Ning Ran, who has entered the top 100 in the Southern District, is indeed interested in touching it, how much Ning Ran has grown during this time, let him try it for himself.
The rising sun shines on the arena, warm and bright. The news of the exhibition match spread quickly in the southern district, and nearly sixty percent of the monks in the southern district rushed over early in the morning to watch the fight between the two geniuses. Mu Ge stood on the stage and waited for Ning Ran, the flame energy was running in his body, even if he was waiting, he was seizing the time to cultivate. The monks in the audience were amazed, Mu Ge was like the morning sun, it didn't take long to shine on the whole earth.
Ning Ran, who had dark circles, hurried over, even though he received the notice of the exhibition match and learned that the opponent was Mu Ge, he still stayed up all night to learn from the chef. Mu Ge's closed eyes opened, he smelled the smell of fireworks on the other party's body, and looked at Ning Ran, who was absent-minded in front of him, and the impression that he had finally repaired was shattered again in his heart.
"If I knew you were like this, even if I were killed, I wouldn't have an exhibition match with you. Mu Ge hugged his arms with a look of disdain. "Let me guess that there is a rumor of a young monk who has been in the top 100 all the way to the top 100 places, but spends the rest of his time learning how to stir-fry. ”
Ning Ran scratched the back of his head: "That person should be me." ”
"I'm currently second in the South Division. You know, I used to think of you as the only opponent in my life. Mu Ge's hand condensed a fireball and violently snuffed it out. "Even if it's that scrap wood, I have some expectations for him, but now you don't deserve it. ”
Ning Ran's expression became solemn, he didn't expect that this true genius in front of him would value himself so much.
"What was I like before?" From the other party's words, Ning Ran wants to contact himself before the amnesia, maybe he can find new clues.
"Heh, even if I am now against you two years ago, the odds of winning are only one percent. Mu Ge's mind came up with the game with Ning Ran back then. The battle was lost too miserably, and even after the game, Mu Ge vomited blood and was in a coma for three days, leaving him a big shadow.
In order to catch up with Ning Ran, he did whatever it took to cultivate desperately.
"You used to be a peerless genius, and it can even be said that you were the first genius on the entire floating island. Lord Iroh has protected you so well that the entire floating island has been kept in the dark, and they only know that you are a genius. Mu Ge stared at Ning Ran and pondered for a moment before blurting out.
"But I didn't know that you were really the first day. ”
Ning Ran was blinded, after all, for him now, he didn't know anything about his past self and everything in the past. Even though he used his coarse appearance to hide his cultivation heart on weekdays, in his heart, he always buried his love for cultivation and regret for spending his life in vain.
It turned out that it was because my past self was too strong. Ning Ran held back the tears in his eyes, he rubbed his nose and asked in a low voice, "Then do you know who my biological parents are?"
Mu Ge was stunned, he couldn't answer for a while, looking at the other party's serious appearance, Mu Ge planned to stimulate him with this.
"Beat me, and I'll tell you. ”
Before the referee could signal, Ning Ran rushed over with an arrow step, and the fire beads in his body were affected by his mood fluctuations and were burning. Mu Ge clasped his thumbs, and a firebird flew out of his chest to catch Ning Ran's attack.
Ning Ran took a deep breath and sucked the other party's firebird into his body, sucking most of it.
Mu Ge was stunned, absorbing other people's flame energy into his body and transforming it into his own energy was not something they could master at their age. Even if you are an adult monk, you have to practice for four or five years before you can really do it.
And for them, inhaling other people's flame energy is undoubtedly burying hidden dangers in their own bodies. Ning Ran swallowed the flames, his fists turned into claws and rushed towards Mu Ge, Mu Ge kept dodging his attacks, and he was entangled in his heart about whether to take advantage of Ning Ran's mistake.
Mu Ge changed his gesture when he stepped back, intending to slightly detonate some energy as a warning, but Ning Ran instantly sensed the other party's intentions, he opened his mouth again, and spewed out all the absorbed flames towards Mu Ge.
Encountered, he had already released the method of detonation, Mu Ge hurriedly opened his hands and condensed the flame shield in front of him. The detonating energy sent out a huge impact with the flames that erupted, pushing Mu Ge away.
"It's kind of interesting. Mu Ge brushed the ashes off his clothes and stood in place.
Ning Ran gasped for breath, what stood in front of him was not Mu Ge, but an opportunity, an opportunity to know his past. He ignited seventy percent of the energy in his body, and layers of crimson flames appeared around his body. He has to seize the time to win and pry his secret out of the opponent's mouth.
Ning Ran disappeared in place, he sensed the energy surging in his body, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, the battle must be ended in this round!
He quickly approached Mu Ge's body, spewing raging flames from his mouth as he swung his fist into the opponent's chest. Mu Ge gradually calmed down, he stretched out his hand to block Ning Ran's flames, and used the fireball to block Ning Ran's fist, and the fireball in his hand exploded instantly, knocking Ning Ran back.
Since Ning Ran borrowed his strength, Mu Ge planned to show off his hand. His right hand flipped in the air, grabbed Ning Ran's flames and fused them into his own fireball, and threw them towards Ning Ran. Ning Ran had just stabilized his body here, and he didn't have time to detonate his flames, so he could only take Mu Ge's attack hard.
The pillar of fire soared into the sky, knocking away Ning Ran, who was holding his arms to defend, and the huge impact distorted the air, which was about to affect the audience, and the referee hurriedly urged the method to control the fluctuation so as not to hurt the innocent.
Ning Ran fell heavily to the ground, at this time he no longer had much energy to support the battle, in his moves and styles, it was not difficult for Mu Ge to see that at this time, he would only release the flame energy, but he could not really retract and release freely.
Mu Ge walked towards him, intending to pull up Ning Ran, who was lying on the ground, but Ning Ran suddenly reached out and grabbed Mu Ge's palm, staring at the other party's eyes.
"Tell me, tell me my secrets. ”
Mu Ge was stunned for a moment, he looked at Ning Ran's eyes, and swallowed his saliva.
"I'm sorry, Ning Ran. I lied. ”
