In the martial arts classroom, Edvina looked at the students below who were soaked in sweat and said, "This is the end of today's class, the class is over!"

Hearing this, everyone's spirits were obviously lifted, every class in Violet Academy, the amount of courses is very large, and the martial arts class is no exception. Since the martial arts class is basically a combat class, the time is very long, and there is no rest in the middle, so after the whole class, everyone's body will be extremely tired and never want to move again, and Edvenna's dismissal is undoubtedly the best gospel for them.

However, today, after announcing the end of class, Edvina did not leave immediately, but looked at them: "You should know that tomorrow is the martial arts exchange competition with the second grade, I hope you can find your own shortcomings from the second-grade seniors and seniors, and then correct them, this is the meaning of holding the exchange competition." ”

Speaking of this, she suddenly changed her words and looked at Don Juan and Caroline: "However, if you have the ability to fight for the first place, then do it, in the history of Violet Academy, there is no precedent for winning the championship in the middle and lower grades of the exchange competition, I look forward to your performance." With that, she turned around and left the classroom, leaving everyone with a back of encouragement.

After Edvina left, Don Juan gasped and smiled bitterly: "I said, don't you want to put so much pressure on us." ”

Caroline glanced at him, "If you don't want to, you can give up this exchange match like the snub star." ”

"I don't dare," Don Juan hurriedly waved his hand: "If I quit, my father in the family will have to kill me." ”

Caroline snorted noncommittally, in her opinion, except for the snub star, it was Don Juan who hid the deepest, although Don Juan usually only showed his defensive ability, and never won when he fought with Caroline, but Caroline didn't believe that he would have no secret cards or anything like that, at least she could vaguely feel it. Don Juan's strength should not be much worse than her.

At this time, Erin next to her asked Snub Star, "Are you really not going to participate?" Since the five of them were in a group, they were all very close to each other during class. Although she knew that Snub Star would not participate in the exchange competition, she still couldn't help but hope that Snub Star could participate, after all, Snub Star was the strongest person they had here, and if he participated, with his strength, the champion would be a first-year.

Snub Star nodded: "Not participating." ”

Erin sighed and didn't say anything more, after all, this was Snub Star's own choice, and there must be a reason for him Anyway, a few of them are basically used to Snub Star's strange behavior.

"All right," said Caroline, "now I'm going back and getting ready, and I'll see you tomorrow." ”

"Well," Don Juan replied, "I'll go back then." ”

"It's not possible to finish in the top four, but after all, we're also competitors, so we have to be prepared. Ivy said that in the exchange competition, there were eight contestants from each grade, and they were all the eight strongest people, so they were also one of them.

At this time, Snub Xing suddenly said, "Although I won't participate, I'll come to see tomorrow." ”

Hearing his words, the remaining four people were stunned, and before they could come to their senses, Snub Star had already left the classroom first. Looking at his back, Don Juan and Caroline suddenly showed a faint smile and left the classroom.

"What's wrong?" asked Erin, puzzled.

Looking at the door of the classroom where people kept going out, Ivy sighed: "It seems that the three of them should be more tacit, there is still a gap between us and them after all." ”

“？”

"It's okay, let's go back and prepare. ”

On the hill behind the Violet Academy, the orange-red sunlight shone gently down with the lush branches and leaves, illuminating the delicate figure of the woman in the woods. She was wearing a white Violet College uniform, and her long blue hair was tied back at the back of her head, giving her a lingering heroic spirit. At this moment, she was standing on the branch of a tree, waving the sword in her hand towards the leaves on the tree, her sword only had a thin layer of cyan fighting qi, whenever she touched these leaves, these leaves would be gently brushed away by the long sword, but the long sword could not cut the leaves in half. Although she used very little fighting energy, due to the repetitive movements and subtle manipulations, it took more energy, and beads of sweat appeared on the girl's cheeks.

"Why?" she muttered to herself, "Why can't you cut it open?" She has been practicing here every day for the past few days, but she has never been able to cut these leaves, and every time the sword is slashed, these soft leaves will bend backwards due to the force, completely dissolving the pressure caused by the blade.

"Why?" she swung her sword again, but the result was still the same: "What's the problem?"

At this time, a subordinate heard a pleasant voice like ice crystals colliding: "Are you practicing?"

"Huh?" The long-haired girl looked down the tree, and saw a dark-haired girl about twenty years old standing under the tree, looking up at her. The girl was wearing a purple violet college uniform, and her slender phoenix eyes were as black as her hair, which looked extraordinarily deep and seemed to be bottomless. To the surprise of the blue-haired girl, when her spiritual power swept over, she couldn't see the black-haired girl's cultivation.

"Yes," replied the blue-haired girl, "I can't cut the leaves, I don't know why." ”

"Do you want to cut the leaves?" The black-haired girl tapped her toes and jumped up: "Look at your school uniform, it's the first and second grades, right? It seems that tomorrow is the exchange competition between the first and second grades, and you should be one of the contestants for cultivation like this, so you will practice here." ”

"Hmm," the blue-haired girl nodded, "I'm in the first grade." ”

The black-haired girl nodded: "I'll see if you do it again, maybe I can help you." ”

The blue-haired girl swung her sword again, slashing at the leaves quickly, but as before, when the blade touched the leaves, she could only make the leaves retreat or bend, but could not cut them off.

The black-haired girl's eyes narrowed slightly: "The power of your sword has been dissolved by this leaf." ”

"Yes," replied the blue-haired girl, "I wanted to counteract the power of the leaf, but I have not been able to succeed." ”

"Well," the dark-haired girl groaned, "you're working in the wrong direction." ”

The blue-haired girl was taken aback: "I'm in the wrong direction?"

"Although the method you said works theoretically, it requires extremely high skill, and if you want to master such a skill, it will take a long time to practice, you should be trained temporarily, and it is impossible to master it in such a short time. ”

"I see!" The blue-haired girl suddenly realized, and then lowered her head again: "Then what should I do?"

The brunette girl looked her in the eye and asked, "Do you want to win so badly?"

"Yes," the blue-haired girl did not dodge in the slightest: "I will never give up like this, because I haven't done my best, even if I will lose, I should work hard for it, instead of accepting the result calmly when I see that it is difficult." ”

"I see," the black-haired girl looked at her deeply, and there seemed to be a different flavor in her black eyes, "In my opinion, you might as well work more on your fighting spirit." ”

"On top of my vindictiveness?"

"Yes, your fighting spirit is the wind system, and in addition to the characteristics of speed, the wind fighting spirit actually has a characteristic, that is, sharpness. ”

The blue-haired girl was stunned: "Fengrui?"

"That's right, the reason why the leaf can defuse your slash is because it is soft enough, as long as your fighting spirit is sharp enough for its softness to work, then it will not be able to defuse your slash. ”

When the blue-haired girl heard this, she couldn't help but fall into thought, and at this time, the black-haired girl said again: "Although I also cultivate Dou Qi, I am not a wind system, so I can help you here, okay, I'll go back." ”

The blue-haired girl hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, senior sister, my name is Caroline, I don't know what senior sister's name is?"

"Lorel, I will practice in this back mountain every day, if you don't understand anything in the future, you can find me here after school. When the black-haired girl reported her name, she didn't even look back, and walked directly in the direction of the dormitory, looking at her back, Caroline suddenly had a strange sense of familiarity, as if she was very similar to someone, but she couldn't remember who it was.

In the dormitory of the cold star, Abel stepped on his horse and punched forward, the crimson light covering his fist filled his whole body with a scorching aura.

At this time, the door of the dormitory was pushed open, and a young man with peach blossom eyes walked in, he had short pale blonde hair, and with his turquoise eyes, he looked quite handsome. Seeing Abel who was cultivating in the dormitory, the young man was stunned: "Eh, I'm looking for the snub star, is he there?"

"Is it Snub Star?" Abel turned his head and glanced at Snub Star's bed: "He's not here now, but he'll be back when it's completely dark, what's your name, I'll help you tell him then." ”

"Thank you," the young man smiled slightly, "My name is Don Juan, and it's getting dark now, so I'll wait for him here for a while." ”

"Okay, sit down. Abel responded: "Are you in the same class as the Snub Star?"

"Well, yes, I didn't hear him say he had a roommate like that. ”

Abel suddenly lowered his head: "My strength is not good, it is not in his eyes at all, maybe he has never taken me seriously." His strength is not the same as mine, and only people like you will be taken into his eyes. ”

"Huh?" Tang Juan was stunned for a moment, what did Snub Xing do, which made his roommate's self-confidence hit like this: "You are a cultivator at the beginning of the ninth level, why haven't you been assigned to our class? ”

"Oh, I was promoted to the ninth level after I arrived at school. ”

"You were only promoted after you arrived at the school?" Don Juan looked at Abel with a little surprise: "But in my opinion, you should be almost in the middle of the ninth level, right?" It has not been even half a year since the opening of the Violet Academy, and this sturdy guy is about to reach the middle of the ninth level?

Abel sighed, "What about the middle of the ninth level?"

"You can't say that," Don Juan said with a smile, "Judging from your cultivation speed, your talent must be quite high, if I'm not mistaken, you're a work-study student, right?"

"I am indeed a work-study student. Abel replied, "How do you tell?"

"A talented person like you, if it is from a noble family, I will definitely have information about you, it can be seen that you are from a commoner background. Your current cultivation is a bit low because you don't have the resources we have, and if your conditions are similar to mine, you may not be much inferior to me, so you don't need to be arrogant at all. ”

Hearing this, Abel's eyes suddenly lit up: "It seems that this is indeed the case, do you mean that the cold star is also a nobleman?"

Tang Juan's face stiffened slightly: "Eh, this, this guy can't be seen with common sense." ”

"That's right," Abel nodded approvingly, "The morning after I first came in, I saw him duel with a heaven-level cultivator, and he won. ”

"What, is there such a thing?" Don Juan was taken aback, he didn't know at all: "What is the name of the person who duel with him?"

"Hmm...... I guess it's called Gilbert. ”

"It turned out to be him, it is said that he broke through the middle stage of the Heaven Level for less than two months, then he should have been at the beginning of the Heaven Level at that time, and it is normal for him to not be able to win the Cold Star. "After all, when the Snub Star was at the peak of the ninth level, he had killed the demonic beasts in the middle of the Heaven Level, and this was not too difficult for the Snub Star.

Speaking of this, Don Juan's topic suddenly changed: "I see that your fighting spirit is a little mixed, what kind of fighting spirit secrets do you cultivate, so bad?"

"Douqi cheats?" was generally a little dazed: "It's what the village taught everyone, it seems to be called "The First Solution of Douqi". ”

"What?" Tang Juan was taken aback, it was the most basic Dou Qi secret book, which was common to the entire Demon Martial Continent, this Abel could still have such a cultivation speed by relying on this, it seemed that his talent was probably comparable even compared to himself.

Don Juan thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Abel, I'll ask you a question." ”

"What's the problem?"

"Will you work for me?"

"What?" This time, it was Abel's turn to be surprised: "Me?"

"Yes," Don Juan said solemnly: "Your talent is extremely high, it has exceeded my imagination, if you work slightly, I will be your most solid backing, you no longer need to worry about provoking anyone, because from now on you will be an important member of our family, and the resources you need for cultivation will also be provided by the family, and your achievements will never be too much inferior to me in the future." ”

"Can I? Can a commoner like me really be?" Abel was a little incredulous, from the previous conversation, he knew that Don Juan must be the son of a certain nobleman, and such a person was now actually recruiting himself?

"Yes, then, would you like to be my subordinate?"

Abel Charles wrote in his memoirs about that day: "On that day, I was told for the first time that as a commoner, I could have achievements that were not inferior to those geniuses, and I could also have an extraordinary life. From his eyes, there was a special look, which made people can't help but want to follow him and share his worries. It seems that in the dark, a voice told me that I would never regret such a choice in my life. ”
