Chapter 21: The Festival of Clouds and Tides
The world of practitioners is often a little more interesting than that of ordinary people, and their habits are very different.
Like now.
In the huge space of the main hall of the Imperial Guard Department, Lu Qiming in the crowd looked up at Zhang Dayan, who was suspended in mid-air and giving a speech at the conference, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
On an occasion like this, where nearly 1,000 people gather, if it is replaced by a gathering of ordinary people who have not cultivated themselves, it is necessary to build a high platform and amplify the sound, so as not to drown the speaker in the crowd. But for Zhang Dayan, who is a cultivator of the Upanishh Realm, he just needs to easily fly to the sky.
Today's Dean Zhang is neatly dressed and dignified, and at a glance, he knows that he has been carefully rectified by Senior Brother Zhuge at a glance.
However, the change in dress style does not mean that the temperament can also change with it.
Zhang Dayan looked at his precious apprentice at a glance, and was squeezing his eyebrows at Lu Qiming at the moment, it was really hard for him to maintain a stable and solemn tone in such a complex expression.
But Zhuge Ke stood next to Lu Qiming, and immediately straightened his face when he saw this, but his expression couldn't be more serious, and he couldn't see it at all when he was dissatisfied. It wasn't until he couldn't bear it anymore and strode over to block Lu Qiming that Zhang Dayan made a "serious speech".
Lu Qiming almost didn't laugh out loud - because he heard Zhang Dayan's voice at the same time!
While giving a serious speech, while passing on the message to the apprentice with a hippie smile, I am afraid that there is really no one in heaven and earth who can stop Dean Zhang!
However, Zhang Dayan is not just concerned about desertion, he has something serious to ask. I only heard him say, "The problem of cultivation - have you made any progress recently?"
Lu Qiming shook his head.
Even if you don't count the time in the Black Triangle, Lu Qiming's cultivation has been going on for two months. Not to mention his own comprehension ability, and with Zhang Dayan, a master of the Mysterian Realm, it stands to reason that he should have significantly improved. However, the truth is that his cultivation has not changed in the slightest.
Lu Qiming's Feng Clan's inner Dan's cultivation needs were already far beyond ordinary people's Heaven and Earth Aura, but the situation of his cultivation was even more difficult - this was no longer something that could be described by just "more aura", but "no matter how much aura" he had, it could not make his cultivation increase.
In the past two months, Zhang Dayan and he don't know how many attempts have been made, but still nothing. The only possible guess is that because of various special experiences, the essence of Lu Qiming's spiritual power has changed, and while he has extraordinary quality, he has also lost the ordinary cultivation method of "absorbing the aura of heaven and earth".
In a word, if Lu Qiming wanted to continue to improve his cultivation level, he would need to incorporate some kind of higher-level energy.
But after all, there is no precedent for this kind of thing, and they have not found an answer to what the so-called "higher level energy" is.
Zhang Dayan said: "When the 'quota battle' is over, let's go to my grandma and ask." ”
Lu Qiming hesitated for a moment and nodded.
......
The content of the meeting was very conventional, presumably reiterating a few precautions that need to be paid special attention to, and the second is the assignment of areas of responsibility.
This time, the battle for places in the ancient battlefield adopted the mode of team fighting, and the students were in groups of five - this is also the action requirement of the martial arts academy for the students after entering the ancient battlefield in the future. The judges of Xiao Zhou Tianjing worked in groups of three, playing the role of the family side in the ancient battlefield and competing with the students.
If students want to get enough marks, in addition to looking for martial arts and comprehending them, they can also take the initiative to challenge the teachers who are judged. Every time you beat a teacher in a battle, you will get the corresponding actual combat score, and the teacher who judges can increase the score of the students according to the battle process in addition to the basic score corresponding to their own strength, and fluctuate within ten points.
The team between the teachers has already been decided, and today it is only necessary to inform the area of responsibility of each group of teachers.
-- But Lu Qiming doesn't have to listen to these.
In this quota battle, he formed a group with Zhao Gongming and Zhuge Ke - it is easy to find what they have in common - they are all from the Department of Medicine.
Unlike the three faculties of the Imperial Guard, the Shushu Division, and the Bunzo, all the teachers in the Department of Medicine, except for the poisoner, are in charge of medical assistance.
Compared to these young students living in ivory towers, the struggle between the families is too cruel, and the two are not in the same world at all. The situation of the ancient battlefield is special, the emperor is far away, as long as he enters, the fight between the families will inevitably involve the Chinese martial arts students who are also in it.
Therefore, it is necessary to make students mentally prepared.
By "simulation", even the atmosphere is the same. If there are students who prove that they are really unable to adapt, it is better not to go into the ancient battlefield in vain to die.
The martial arts academy is rarely ruthless, and it is estimated that it is inevitable that he will be injured and bleed in the quota battle. However, it is impossible for the martial arts academy to really let its own students die of serious injuries, so this time the medical department is almost fully dispatched, and the basic safety of the students must be guaranteed.
The teachers of the Department of Medicine naturally have their own areas, but Lu Qiming's situation is different.
Lu Qiming, Zhuge Ke, Zhao Gongming, and more than a dozen others are the most comprehensive and profound medical research. Once the quota battle begins, they will make a full tour of the entire area according to the prescribed route to prevent some teachers from encountering problems that they can't solve.
At the same time, they have a higher authority than other teachers to evaluate extra points - only not in combat, but on students' ability to save themselves and their peers.
In short, for this battle for places in the ancient battlefield, the Martial Academy has paid great attention to everything in all aspects.
......
Zhongwu is not a family, and he does not pay attention to false forms in doing things, and it is enough to be able to speak clearly as soon as possible. The meeting ended quickly, and the crowd dispersed.
Lu Qiming walked down the mountain alone, suddenly paused, looked at the person and smiled.
Let's look at that eye-catching red robe - which one is not Qin Yuefeng?
Lu Qiming walked over to him and teased, "Is this a special trip here to block me?"
"Isn't it? Qin Yuefeng leaned against the tree with his arms crossed, and said with a lazy smile: "Since our dean accepted you as an apprentice...... Oh yes, and since that big dragon girl came, I couldn't see you. No, I can only wait here in advance to arrest someone. ”
"It's not such an exaggeration. Lu Qiming shook his head and smiled.
Qin Yuefeng stood up straight, walked side by side with him, and said leisurely: "But don't worry, I won't bother you again in the past few months." I'm here to say goodbye to you today. In the afternoon, I left directly. ”
Lu Qiming was stunned and said, "So early, there are at least three months left before the ancient battlefield." ”
"I didn't either. Qin Yuefeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "If it was before, this type of affairs like the clan would have been presided over by my sister. But now that she's gone suddenly, the rest of the clan really hasn't been able to hold up the scene, so this trouble has fallen on me. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Qiming, and there was envy in his tone: "In this regard, it is still your Lu family's side, the division of labor is clear, you just need to practice freely, and there are no such trivial things to worry about." ”
Lu Qiming smiled: "I agree with what you say." ”
"What's more," after a pause, Qin Yuefeng said again: "If I really wait for your quota battle to start before leaving, maybe I can't help but feel itchy, and I can't help but join." ”
Lu Qiming smiled silently.
That's a joke. Qin Yuefeng knew very well what he really needed. The Qin clan of Zhongzhou is the descendant of the "Great Feng Shui Qinmen" of the Divine Domain, and their own inheritance is the most suitable for Qin Yuefeng, no matter how exquisite the other cultivation systems are, they are just distracting their energy. How could he waste time on the battle for the ancient battlefield?
Not only Qin Yuefeng, but also many of the core children of the family did not need to compete with a group of people for those martial arts skills.
They actually participated with ulterior motives.
Qin Yuefeng blinked and said jokingly: "You know, there are many people who are participating this time, but they are waiting to see you!"
The children of the family who participated in the quota battle mainly wanted to collect information for the family and understand the fighting habits of the students who stood out from the Chinese martial arts, and then it was aimed at Lu Qiming.
Now who doesn't know that Lu Qiming is one of the judges this time? Since this is the case, it is impossible not to make a move, as long as he makes a move, he can be seen, and if he can be seen, he can summarize information and infer weaknesses.
Like Lu Qiming and Qin Yuefeng, other families will never give up killing them, they can kill them at any time, and if they can't kill them, they have to try-if they are lucky, it will make the other party lose a future Da Zhou Tian.
- But they didn't know that although Lu Qiming was indeed a judge, he was a medical judge, and there was no need to fight in person. If you really say that you want to "watch", I don't know who is looking at whom.
Qin Yuefeng naturally knew this, he was worried that no one needed to worry about Lu Qiming. He rolled his eyes, stretched out his folding fan, lowered his voice and smiled: "Do you want to play a reversal? You have summed up the combat weaknesses of certain people by the way when you are walking around-when the unsung hero gives him 'publicity' so that they can steal chickens and rice?"
Lu Qiming touched his chin, as if he was a little moved.
Qin Yue's eyebrows fluttered, and he said, "Let's cooperate, you summarize, I'm in charge of disseminating channels?"
After thinking for a moment, Lu Qiming still shook his head and said regretfully: "It's indeed a good idea, but it's a pity this time." ”
"Isn't it you!" Qin Yuefeng saw that his hope was inexplicably disappointed, and exclaimed, "What's so wrong with such a reasonable thing?
Lu Qiming sighed and said: "It's impossible to be polite when I met them on the ancient battlefield, but in Zhongwu, I have the title of 'teacher', so this kind of thing is not suitable to do." ”
Qin Yuefeng was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "Okay, good, good!
"Of course—" Lu Qiming hadn't finished yet.
I just heard him say leisurely: "When you enter the ancient battlefield, you don't have to pay attention to it, anyway, it doesn't take time to summarize such a simple thing." When the time comes, take the people of your Qin family to meet and walk for a while, and I will explain to you on the spot free of charge. ”
"That's what it sounds like. Qin Yuefeng's face turned bright, and the folding fan shook again.
Big fish eat small fish. There is no need to catch the "big fish" and let those "small fish" pick up the cheap, it is the same as the reason for clearing the weak first when many people are fighting and competing, so now the Qin and Lu families are really happy and never tired of looking at each other.
As soon as he was in a good mood, Qin Yuefeng had other leisure thoughts. He was curious: "Didn't you say that the Martial Academy set a score for each teacher, and how many points did they set for you?"
Lu Qiming said: "One point." ”
"Ahem......" Qin Yuefeng choked when he landed. He was shocked and said, "Who's stupid, aren't you? I'll set you a point? If you win, you get a point? I think all the students have zero eggs!"
Lu Qiming explained: "All the teachers of the medical department are one point, and there is no possibility of adding points in combat - because the martial arts academy does not support attacking the healer. ”
Qin Yuefeng suddenly said at this time, and said: "Even so, one point is too low. ”
Lu Qiming smiled: "I don't have an opinion, anyway, it makes no difference whether I set 'one point' or 'ten thousand points'." Now in this realm, no one can beat me. ”
Qin Yuefeng rolled his eyes at the first time, but he could only agree truthfully: "That's right. ”
In the past, he would never admit this, but after comparing with Lu Qiming a few times in the past two months, he had nothing to say at all.
"Speaking of which!" Qin Yuefeng knocked his head and said with a smile: "Last time, I said that I would take you to our East China Sea to see the floating sea of clouds of the 'Yunxi Festival' - you haven't forgotten this, have you?"
"Yes, it was the end of summer. Lu Qiming also remembered the conversation with Qin Yuerong and the three of them last year, and it turned out that it had been a year in the blink of an eye.
He counted the time and nodded with a smile: "In this case, I will leave a month early then, you remember to have a treat." ”
"It's a deal!"
