The bright afternoon light slanted through the carved doors and windows, revealing a lattice of light and shadow on the floor.

It's another good day.

Lu Qiming asked the woman to go first, and when he passed by, he couldn't help but smile and shake his head when he saw the frenzied flames of battle in the depths of her eyes. He closed the wooden door with his backhand and said, "I mentioned once a few days ago that the Martial Academy will hold a meeting this afternoon. ”

Long Anlan finally suddenly realized: "Yes, you were dragged to that battle for the judge." Time seems to be ...... Three days later, no wonder I'm only going to be back in half a day. ”

Lu Qiming nodded.

This time, the selection of the quota for the ancient battlefield has already become a grand event for the entire martial arts academy, and at least nine out of every ten students have to participate. The loss is that Zhongwu has a vast area, otherwise it will be a headache for the venue alone. Three days later, the battle will officially begin, and many things will still have to be explained again.

"Speaking of which. Long Anlan casually brushed aside a branch of Mulan in front of him, turned his head to glare at Lu Qiming, and said, "You gave your inheritance to Zhongwu, why do you have to put it on my head?"

Unlike Lu Qiming, who is a world-traveler, Princess An Lan is an orthodox dragon clan, and her cultivation and the human race are fundamentally two completely different systems, how can she remember such exercises and martial arts that are applicable to many human races? The "Divine Domain Secret Treasure" that has been spreading in the martial arts academy these days is needless to say that it is Lu Qiming's handwriting.

Long Anlan didn't wait for the young man to speak, and continued without pause: "It's okay in my name, why do you want to give so much for nothing? ”

Lu Qiming couldn't cry or laugh, shook his head and said, "What 'vault'...... Is that obviously called 'reverence'?"

"Not interested. Long Anlan grimaced, and his mind had drifted back to the martial arts discussion again. She thought back to the three-person competition in the balance field just now, and couldn't help but stare at Lu Qiming again for a while.

Lu Qiming didn't know what she remembered again, so he asked her helplessly: "Anlan?"

The dragon girl has a great advantage, you just ask her and she will say it directly, and she will never beat around the bush. So she said, "Have you always learned things so fast?"

Although Lu Qiming was stronger than her and Chu Shaoqiu in all aspects such as sword dao, Dan Dao, array Dao, instrument dao, etc., Lu Qiming had a special background after all, and they were able to significantly suppress them in hand-to-hand combat-the sum of these two items gave me a little comfort in my heart. However, both she and Chu Shaoqiu never expected that this only advantage would only last for two months......

Such a fact, even Long Anlan, is a little difficult to accept.

Lu Qiming shook his head and said, "You also know, in terms of the first reaction in battle, I am far inferior to you......"

"That's right, every time you make a move, you have to do the calculations in your mind before you make a move, and then respond according to the calculated moves. Long Anlan yawned and said coldly: "But if you do the whole thing, you still react faster than those of us who didn't think about anything, so what you said is the same as if you didn't say it." ”

Lu Qiming only smiled bitterly.

Long Anlan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then is there anything you are not good at?" When she said this, her voice was obviously lowered, and she was rarely a little embarrassed.

"Divination. Lu Qiming replied quickly and said with a smile: "Although I have learned, all I have calculated are 'empty hexagrams', without one exception." ”

Long Anlan wondered, "Why is this?"

Lu Qiming shrugged, no one knew.

However, Long Anlan is not interested in fortune-telling, and only things related to actual combat can attract her attention.

"There you have it!" the woman snapped her fingers and said, "I'm going to participate too." ”

Lu Qiming smiled: "The ancient battlefield?"

"Don't look at me like that, the ancient battlefield is still very interesting. Long Anlan's tone was subtle, and he asked him instead, "Do you know what is the real reason why the people of the Divine Domain gave up exploring the ancient battlefield?"

Lu Qiming said: "Isn't it because the value there has been squeezed out, and the remaining risks are not proportional to the benefits?" Most of his understanding of the ancient battlefield came from Zhongzhou, and it was rarely mentioned in the inheritance of the Feng clan.

That's only half true. Long Anlan said lightly, "Don't say anything about 'value squeezing clean', they can't even determine what the true value of the ancient battlefield is." But it's too risky, and that's right. ”

Middle-earth and Godland's attitudes towards the unknown are very different, for the former, mystery means preciousness, but the latter trust their own judgment more and are more "self-pity" - if something they can't understand at all, then most of the time they will choose to stay away. Just like their attitude towards the ancient battlefield.

The confusion of the ancient battlefield in the middle of the earth also exists in the divine domain, and the people of the central continent cannot understand the mechanism of many visions of the ancient battlefield, and the people in the divine domain are also unable to do the same - for example, the mystery of the area of the ancient battlefield, how those mantras appear directly in the sea of knowledge, and how they are forcibly forgotten at the moment of leaving, and so on. At that time, it even alarmed the attention of several powerful people - and they still couldn't solve it.

What's more, the Ancient Battlefield is the second place other than the Golden Tree Secret Realm, which is impossible to directly explore from the outside world.

When Lu Qiming heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Since this is the case, then it is even more impossible for them to give up exploration." It seems that what is claimed to be done is diametrically opposed to what is actually done. ”

Some unknown threat is bound to exist, but the people who are really behind the scenes, they don't have to take the risk themselves. A fluttering command can lead to huge gains - how could they not do it?

"That's true. Long Anlan nodded neatly.

She put away her smile and said solemnly, "But the inheritance of the ancient battlefield is not suitable for our Spirit Alliance, and almost all of the people who bet on it are martial arts sects - so you know, for you, the real danger is definitely not these ordinary people in the middle earth." ”

Lu Qiming bowed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "An Lan, I remember that you said before that the inheritance of the ancient battlefield seems to have the same origin as ours, so how did it first appear?"

Long Anlan said: "No, ......" but she stopped after only saying one word. She wanted to say "I don't know", but in the end she changed her tune.

She sighed, "Can't tell." ”

Lu Qiming was slightly stunned. After a moment of silence, he looked her in the eye and whispered, "Thank you." ”

Long Anlan looked away and looked up into the distance.

There, birds and feathers cut across the blue sky.

She said softly, "I'll go back to 'Stop the Clouds' first." ”

Lu Qiming smiled and nodded, watching her back finally disappear into the depths of the forest path.
