Chapter 15 The White Clothes Are Wrong
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, there is still a week left before the time for the sect assessment.
Under the dual guidance of Xiao Jingjing and Bingfeng, Xu Wei's foundation has been extremely solid, and he can step into the seventh layer of basic martial arts at any time and become the best among the students.
In the past few days, a large number of young cultivators, accompanied by their families, have poured into Peacock Valley every day. On weekdays, the quiet valley is noisy.
As the only assessment location in the out-of-state region, Peacock Academy is a place that carries the dreams and ambitions of these teenagers, which is extremely sacred and special. The sect assessment once every three years is like a choice of fate, and countless genius teenagers have tried their best for that small number of entry places, only hoping to break through and glorify their ancestors.
All the inns on the streets of Peacock Valley were already overcrowded, and ordinary cultivators could only sleep in the mountains, but this did not affect their mood in the slightest. Talking and laughing, his face was full of longing and excitement.
Of course, no one who can come here will have the heart to fish in troubled waters. One is that the assessment of the sect is quite strict and fair, and it should be related to the defense of the Great Wilderness and the Bronze Gate campaign, so cheating will never be allowed. The second is that if you want to come here, you have to go through a lot of dangers and difficulties on the way, and if you don't have some ability, you may die on the way.
As for the native-born residents of Peacock Valley, it can only be said that they were born with a good fate, and outsiders can only reluctantly accept this innate advantage. After all, the problem of geographical superiority is unsolvable in any dynasty.
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
On this day, Xu Wei walked out of the actual combat training ground, looking at the students who were practicing hard in the field, looking a little distressed.
During this time, he spent all his energy on breaking through the seventh layer, and what puzzled him was that his moves were getting more and more proficient, but unfortunately he was so far from breaking through. He wanted to try if he could make progress between life and death, so he came to the real battlefield today, but after practicing, he still couldn't get his wish.
"It seems that the foundation is still a little weaker and cannot be forced. Xu Wei shook his head and strode in the direction of home.
At this moment, a team of centaurs suddenly appeared in the distance, they lined up neatly, and the speed of the mount under the crotch was so fast that they had already come to Xu Wei in the blink of an eye.
There were about a dozen of them, dressed in simple but gorgeous clothes, and their expressions were serious but not sharp.
"Is this, the Wind Beast?" Xu Wei asked in surprise as he looked at the demon beasts under the crotch of this team.
After Xiao Jingjing and Bingfeng's continuous indoctrination of popular science during this period of time, Xu Wei also had a preliminary understanding of the Great Wilderness Demon Beasts and Treasures. Isn't the demon beast in front of him, covered with cyan scale armor and with a leopard's head and a raccoon body, the eighth-ranked wind beast in the Great Wilderness mount rankings?
Legend has it that the wind beast lives near the South China Sea, and it runs as fast as lightning, and can travel thousands of miles a day, but it is difficult to catch. The body is extremely tough, and it is beaten on the head dozens of times with a hammer before it dies, and even if it is dead, it can be resurrected if the wind blows in the mouth.
"The little brother is quite knowledgeable, and it is rare for ordinary people to recognize this beast at a glance. The middle-aged man in the lead waved his hand at the team, stopped and praised Xu Wei.
"I saw this beast in a book by chance, but I didn't expect to see the real thing today, and it is not worthy of praise from my predecessors. ”
The crowd that comes to Peacock Valley these days is unknown, but none of them are as chic and maverick as these people. Moreover, this team of people is in a uniform formation, their demeanor is relaxed, and they come from afar without too much dust on their bodies, all of which show that this team of people is well-trained and highly powerful.
"The younger generation still has important things to do at home, so I will leave first. After speaking, Xu Wei took a step and wanted to leave.
Although these people have kind eyes, the arrogance revealed in their bones cannot be concealed. If you accidentally say something wrong and inadvertently offend someone, it's not worth it.
"Little brother, wait a minute. The birth of a middle-aged man stopped Xu Wei.
"Well, what else do you have for advice? Xu Wei turned around and asked.
"No, what I said just now has already offended people!" Xu Wei thought weakly.
"I heard that the little brother just said to go home, it should be a local, can you take us to Peacock Academy?"
"It's just leading the way!" Xu Wei patted his chest and said, "I am a student of the academy, and I am honored to lead the way for my seniors." ”
"Haha, it's such a coincidence, it seems that we are destined for my little brother!" said the middle-aged man smiled.
In the midst of laughter, the middle-aged man turned over and rode on the Wind Beast, turned around and shouted: "This is already the boundary of the Peacock Valley, there will be no more high-level demon beasts, everyone can relax." This little brother took us to the Peacock Academy, and after completing this mission, I, Ding Peng, invited everyone to drink monkey wine. ”
"Then thank you Brother Peng in advance, this time I am so generous, monkey wine, I seem to have smelled the aroma of wine now. The crowd cheered.
Looking at the people who were still arrogant just now, they were as noisy as market vendors at the moment, Xu Wei showed an expression of disbelief.
"Monkey wine, what is that, that makes this group so excited. Xu Wei thought in a daze.
Looking at Xu Wei, who was stunned in place, Ding Peng thought for a while, and then said: "But we can't let the little brother chase the wind beast with his legs! Why don't you give up your mount to your little brother and Edgeworth follow?"
"Good ------"
With such a simple word, I saw that a graceful figure had jumped out of the crowd and appeared in front of Xu Wei's eyes.
Xu Wei looked up, and the whole person was a little sluggish in an instant. The heart was beating wildly as if it had been hit by a meteorite.
Xu Wei looked at the girl who fell from the sky in front of her blankly, white-clothed and snowy, ethereal like a fairy, a delicate little face could not find any flaws, with a slender figure, at first glance it looked like a fairy descending to earth. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, he stepped on knee-high boots and wore a neat long skirt swaying in the wind, like a snow lotus on the mountain that day.
Xu Wei, who often meets Xiao Jingjing and asks himself if he is already very resistant to beautiful women, does not sigh at this moment, the woman in front of him is already so beautiful that she is not like a mortal person.
"The Wind Beast is for you, please lead the way. The girl's cold voice came, without a hint of emotion.
"It's not good, you're still a girl, how can I, a big man, take your mount. Xu Wei waved his hand and refused.
"It's okay, I'll be able to keep up with you. The woman's expression was cold, like an iceberg that would not melt for thousands of years, giving people a feeling of rejection thousands of miles away.
"But ------"
"Little brother, don't worry, the sword technique of the non-junior sister is faster than the Wind Beast in short distance. Xu Wei wanted to say something, but Ding Peng interrupted directly.
"Thank you very much. Hearing this, Xu Wei no longer refused, walked straight to the girl's wind beast, turned over and sat down.
The tamed wind beast was extremely docile, straddled it, and Xu Wei looked at it curiously. He is more than one meter tall and three meters long. The limbs are strong and powerful, and the scale armor is as hard as iron, and it is difficult for ordinary weapons to break through the defenses.
"Little brother, let's go. Ding Peng's voice came from the front, interrupting Xu Wei's observation.
Xu Wei nodded, jerkily harnessing the wind beast, and rushed forward first.
