Chapter 40: Winning the Championship (2)
"Looks like there won't be any wolves around here. Su Xiaotian muttered, carefully reconnoitred at the entrance of the cave, and then entered the cave with peace of mind.
When the winged lion saw him come in again, his eyes were more vigilant.
Su Xiaotian wanted to say something, but when he saw the expression of the winged lion, he couldn't help but swallow the words back into his stomach.
"Now that I've collected so many points, I can go back. Su Xiaotian said as he spread out his palms and urged the phantom power to activate the phantom array. However, the phantom array only lit up for a moment, and then immediately dimmed.
"Oops...... Could it be that it was destroyed by poison...... "This is not a good thing. Although there is no solution to the poison, the phantom array is not a living creature after all, and it will not take long for it to dissipate on its own. But at least a few more hours to wait, which may not be long in normal times, but in such an extremely dangerous place, it seems very long.
Su Xiaotian thought about it, it was so dangerous outside, it was better to stay in the cave. There is a winged lion, even if you can't expel the wolf, but there will never be a phantom beast to disturb it, so it's safer, but I don't know if the winged lion will eat itself.
However, as soon as he thought that he had scolded it just now and it didn't make a move, he dispelled this thought, but he was still a little cautious, after all, who knew that this winged lion was not regaining its strength, and it might kill him again.
"It doesn't have to be like that...... What kind of hatred do you have with humans......" he complained, his eyes swept over his body, and the injuries on his body were also in full view.
Su Xiaotian thought about it carefully, and remembered that there would be a common herb under many big trees in the forest, which was green and open, which was used to stop bleeding and reduce inflammation, and it could be mashed and rubbed on the wound.
I've been taking classes for more than a month, and I haven't learned anything else, but I've learned this, but I didn't expect it to be used now, but I don't know if there's one nearby.
Thinking about it, he walked out of the cave quickly, and left after a while.
The winged lion paid attention to it again, and after making sure that Su Xiaotian was far away, he closed his eyes and rested with peace of mind.
After touching for more than ten minutes, Su Xiaotian walked back to the cave with a large pile of herbs and placed them in front of the winged lion.
The winged lion opened its eyes, not knowing what Xiaotian wanted to do, and a vigilant underground roar sounded in his throat again.
Xiaotian was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Don't worry, I don't dare to harm you, it's just some herbs." β
Although the Winged Lion didn't know what medical skills were, it did know what herbs were, and there were many phantom beasts in the Northern Twilight Forest that also specialized in cultivating by eating herbs, so this made it lower its vigilance.
Su Xiaotian took a bunch, held it in his hand and rubbed it vigorously, trying to crush and rub it as much as possible, and finally turned it into a green paste. To be honest, this is indeed disgusting, Su Xiaotian couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect it to be so sticky.
When he rubbed out a large ball, the smell of these herbs was fully emanated, burrowing into the winged lion's nose. It's a pity that it doesn't know what kind of herb it is, and it has only been exposed to high-grade herbs, but it doesn't even know the lowest-grade herbs.
Su Xiaotian hurriedly shook off the herbal sauce, and hurriedly took two steps forward and slapped his palm on the wound on its neck.
As soon as it touched it, the winged lion shivered violently like an electric shock, its body shook, and a painful expression appeared on its face, as if it wanted to stand up and swallow Su Xiaotian in one bite.
However, it didn't have the strength to do so, and as soon as it got up, it immediately collapsed. This reaction is not because Xiaotian hurts so much, but because the medicine residue is irritating, but it is not enough to make people scream, but the sudden feeling makes it a little panicked, and it has no time to react.
"Reaction...... Don't be that big...... Good no good...... Does it hurt so much?" Su Xiaotian said as he pretended to have the courage to continue to apply the dragon snake, and it didn't take long to apply this large lump of paste to the winged lion's body.
Looking at his own smugness, Su Xiaotian smiled with satisfaction, seeing that it was not too early, and the restart of the phantom array would be enough until tomorrow, and he was already a little tired, so he sat down and closed the door to recuperate.
After a long time, he had nothing to do, so he began to meditate and cultivate, completely forgetting the existence of the winged lion.
He silently cultivated the second layer of the Blood Yi Great Nine Style, although after the tempering of the Quick Path, his cultivation speed was much faster than before, and his cultivation was also advancing by leaps and bounds. But even with this kind of cultivation speed of thousands of miles a day, on the indestructible bottleneck of the second layer, it can't even make any waves, and it is indeed several times more difficult than the first layer.
"Bai Hao is gone...... It's not like leaving, right? It's okay to be alone, and you don't have to do things for him. β
The flow of phantom power traveled all over his body with his breath of induction, especially in his mind, which became chaotic like a tornado, but his strength also had a qualitative leap.
The winged lion's eyes widened and a self-deprecating smile appeared.
Such a weak human being is actually not afraid of himself, and he is still cultivating in front of his fourth-order powerful phantom beast, who can match this kind of courage?
But perhaps because of his weakness, the Winged Lion did not take any action, just watched quietly, this was also the first time he was so tolerant of a human, after all, he was also his own savior.
When the flow of phantom power began to wander from the inside out, the bottleneck of his long-awaited strength finally showed signs of cracking. The peak of the initial strength is not far from the middle stage, as long as there are a few more days, it will definitely be able to break through the middle stage.
The night was about to pass quickly, and the first rays of sunlight of the next day also shot obliquely into the cave and shone on Su Xiaotian's face. He frowned, slowly opened his eyes, and with the increase in cultivation, he found that his vision was also clearer.
He turned his head to see if the winged lion was awake, but found that it was still staring at him vigilantly, in the same posture as last night, and it seemed that it had been staring at him all night.
However, its injuries are better, this Nine Beast Continent is different from the human world, even the effect of herbs is ten times better, it was dying yesterday, but today it looks much better. The wound is also healing rapidly, and it seems that it has no problem walking, and its wings are also made of cartilage, and with a little rest, it may be able to fly. It's not just the herb that's the stuff, it's the power of the herb itself.
"Oh, I didn't expect the recovery to be so fast, it's much better than the American ginseng, royal jelly, cordyceps sinensis and so on that I bought on the earth. Su Xiaotian admired and accepted some herbs, as if he had encountered some kind of prize.
Winged Lion as a party...... Oh no, the beast in question, the recovery of his body has indeed increased, and now he may be able to fight a little, and he doesn't have to worry about the human in front of him plotting against him.
After being happy, he came to the winged lion, "I said you are a phantom beast, I saved your life this time, you owe me a favor, don't forget to pay me back." β
After teasing, he spread out his palm, activated the teleportation array, and injected a trace of magic power into the illusion array, ready to start activating.
"Roar, Roar, Roar, ......Roar, Roar, Roar, Roar, T
The winged lion suddenly stood up, staring at Xiaotian with sharp eyes, and its sharp teeth kept colliding.
Su Xiaotian's face turned pale, he stepped back, accidentally fell to the ground, and stared at the winged lion in horror, "You...... What are you going to do......
"Roaring ......"
In the Academyββ
Nearly 5,000 people gathered on the playground and listened to the elderly Xuan Lao preside over the rally, supported by many teachers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this gathering was held due to the thorough assessment, and many new students enthusiastically participated in the assessment period, and they were not suitable to participate, and I feel commendable for their courage.
During the competition, many students paid their precious lives, which also reflects the difficulty of the assessment.
In order to make the students more active in the future competition, the top 10 list of the assessment is hereby announced and rewarded.
Next, the top 10 list will be announced by Jia Lao, and those students who have not entered the top 10 should not be discouraged, and we will also issue appropriate rewards to encourage diligence. β
Jia Lao took two steps forward and smiled hehe, although his voice was not loud, but under the diffusion of phantom power, everyone could hear it clearly.
"Tenth place - civilian class 3 - Liu Muyuan, the bonus is 19,000 beast coins......"
At this time, Lin Xun's faces were extremely ugly, not because Liu Muyuan won the award or anything, but because Su Xiaotian had not come back for a long time, and the teleportation array did not react in the slightest. If you don't come back, the academy will remove the big array, after all, the assessment is over, there is no point in maintaining the big array, and the consumption of magic power is also extremely huge, who would be willing to pay such a big price for a student who has no name?
Shangguan Yishui's face was even more pale, and his brows were tightly locked. Zhou Xue, the director of the first class, took the opportunity to laugh when he saw the situation: "Yo, what's wrong with Teacher Shangguan, isn't it that the students can't get out of the forest......?
These words were like pins and needles, Shangguan Yishui couldn't help but be angry, but there was no way to do it.
"Eighth place - Civilian Class 7 - Wang Bicheng, the prize is 39,000 beast coins......"
At this time, outside the city walls......
"Good...... Good...... Good...... It's cold!, slow down!" Su Xiaotian hugged his arms and curled up in a ball, not daring to look down at all.
The silver-horned winged lion grabbed Su Xiaotian's collar with both hands, spread its wings and galloped up several kilometers in the air, squinting at Su Xiaotian with disdain.
"Slow down...... There's no need to be in such a hurry...... Fly lower......"
Perhaps he couldn't stand Su Xiaotian's broken thoughts, so he sped up again, and now it was even comparable to an airplane! The speed of the flying beast was already terrifying, but it was much faster than the flying beast.
"Is this your attitude of repaying the favor! Just let me grab your legs, you still fly so fast! You did it on purpose!"
If he didn't want to experience this kind of flying feeling, he didn't want the winged lion to carry him at all, not to mention that this guy's injuries had just begun to heal, and if there was an accident, it would be one beast and two lives.
The winged lion gave him a dissatisfied, made a sharp turn, and accelerated towards the location of the academy. Originally, the flying beast traveled for three days, and it meant that its rising speed might only take a few moments to reach it.
Especially when crossing the city walls......
"Whoosh!"
The soldiers defending the city took a nap, but were awakened by this sudden whistling sound, and looked up at the sky again, and nothing had changed.
"Am I ......dazzled?"
"Seventh place - civilian...... Reward 49,000 Beast Coins......"
"Sixth place - noble...... Reward 59,000 Beast Coins"
At this moment, a cold laugh suddenly sounded in the noble team: "...... Mingyu"
"Yes......"
