The church was quiet for a moment because of the sudden interjection of the young man in brocade, and many teenagers and girls glanced at the former, and they all silently withdrew their gazes, because the identity of the person who spoke was not ordinary.

The young man in brocade clothes is named Xu Lin, and his father is the county guard of Zhenxi County of the Great Zhou Dynasty, of course, in terms of identity and status, he is naturally far inferior to Zhou Yuan, His Royal Highness of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but everyone knows that this Xu Lin, the person behind it, is the little prince of Qi Wangfu, Qi Yue.

Zhou Yuan glanced at Xu Lin, tapped his fingers on the desktop, and then retracted his gaze carelessly, this guy, in order to please Qi Yue, really did everything.

"This Xu Lin is so flattering to Qi Yue... If you think about it, your father should have also joined the camp of King Qi..."

Zhou Yuan's eyes became a little deeper, he had heard his father Zhou Qing say that this King of Qi was supported by the Dawu Dynasty behind him, so over the years, he had been secretly making waves in the Great Zhou Dynasty, obviously not intending to let them be peaceful in the Great Zhou.

And because he was afraid of Dawu and was afraid of giving them an excuse to deal with the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Qing was not good at directly attacking the king on the surface, but secretly, there was naturally a fight between them.

Because of this relationship, Qi Yue, who was also studying in the Great Zhou Mansion, naturally had friction with Zhou Yuan.

That Xu Lin saw that Zhou Yuan was silent, and the mockery at the corner of his mouth was even worse, and he was about to continue talking, but the lecturer suddenly glared at him, so that he could only close his mouth.

In this Great Zhou Mansion, if he is expelled, it will also be a great loss to him.

As the two of them quieted down, the atmosphere in the lecture hall gradually recovered, and the lecturer continued to explain the three source patterns until the bell rang after two incense sticks.

"Okay, that's all for today, and we'll move on tomorrow." The lecturer gathered his things and walked out of the church.

With the departure of the lecturer, the tense atmosphere in the lecture hall suddenly relaxed, and many teenagers and girls gathered together, bursting into energetic laughter.

Zhou Yuan also packed up the table in a mess, preparing to leave.

"Your Highness."

In his cleaning room, a soft voice suddenly sounded, Zhou Yuan looked up, and then saw that at his desk, a girl was looking at him with a smile.

The girl was wearing the uniform of the students of the Great Zhou Mansion, although it was a little loose, but it still outlined a well-developed curve, and the simple trousers set off the slender and straight long legs.

Her skin is white and tender, her jade nose is upturned, her willow eyebrows and apricot eyes are a rare beauty embryo, especially in the corner of her eye, there is a tear mole, which adds a bit of taste to the girl.

Her ruddy little mouth was gently pursed, although she didn't have any expensive jewelry on her body, she looked a little plain, but she showed some strong taste, and her long hair was tied into a ponytail, beating with vitality.

She just stood here slimly, attracting the eyes of many teenagers in the church.

Zhou Yuan looked at the Ming in front of him. The smart and moving girl, a slightly bookish face, also appeared with a smile: "It's young." ”

The girl's surname is Su, and her name is Youwei.

Looking at Zhou Yuan's gaze, the girl named Su Youwei blushed slightly, then turned her gaze away and looked at Zhou Yuan's messy desktop, then knelt down and pursed her lips: "Your Highness, I'll help you clean up." ”

Zhou Yuan smiled and didn't refuse, after all, the relationship between the two was indeed extraordinary.

So the girl got busy at Zhou Yuan's desk, helping him tidy up all the messy things, attracting the eyes of many teenagers in the church, who were staring at Zhou Yuan with hot eyes, and the jealousy in their eyes was about to gush out.

"Your grandfather's illness is all cured, right?" Looking at the busy girl, Zhou Yuan supported his chin with his palm and asked.

Hearing Zhou Yuan's words, Su Youwei raised her pretty face, and her jade hand pulled up a wisp of green silk that fell in front of her, and then a smile appeared on her cheeks.

"It's all right, grandpa said that if he has time, he still wants to invite His Royal Highness to the house, but the house is too dilapidated, I'm afraid..."

"Okay, I'll go on the next holiday." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

Hearing Zhou Yuan's unhesitating answer, Su Youwei bit her red lips lightly, looked at him with her eyes, and the water light in it flashed for a moment, and then she quickly lowered her head for fear of being detected.

She still remembers the day she met Zhou Yuan a year ago.

It may have been her most desperate, but it was also beginning to usher in a day of hope.

On that day, her grandfather, who had been dependent on her since childhood, was seriously ill, and the already broken family suddenly collapsed, she braved the torrential rain, carrying her grandfather with a small body, because of lack of money, she could only kneel in front of the pharmacy in the torrential rain, constantly crying and praying, hoping that the doctor in it would save her grandfather.

At that time, she was covered in mud and water, and she was extremely embarrassed.

Eventually, all the apothecaries were coldly closed, and under the torrential rain, she felt the whole sky darken, and her heart was as cold as ice.

Just when she was almost numb to despair, she felt someone walk up to her, put an umbrella in her hand, and then, under her unfocused gaze, stepped forward and kicked the closed door of the medicine shop open with a single kick.

At that time, there seemed to be an icy voice coming from there.

"Open the door, save people!"

At that time, Su Youwei looked at his back in a daze, in the past, what she hated the most was this kind of gentleman, but at that time, she felt that the back of this young man who kicked the door open, perhaps, she would die unforgettable...

And it was from that day that she met Zhou Yuan, and later learned his identity, His Royal Highness of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Later, by chance, Zhou Yuan realized that she had a talent for cultivation, so he recommended her to the Great Zhou Mansion, and she began to undergo earth-shaking transformation...

In just the first month of entering the Great Zhou Mansion, she successfully opened the first vein and became the person who opened the pulse the fastest since the establishment of the Great Zhou Mansion, thus becoming the so-called genius in the mouth of everyone in the Great Zhou Mansion.

Suddenly, from no one paying attention, to the focus, Su Youwei is also a little uncomfortable, and sometimes, there are people who are not used to her relationship with Zhou Yuan, and will secretly say that Zhou Yuan helped her just because she liked her beauty.

But Su Youwei just laughed at this, because only she knew what a dirty and skinny little girl she was when she met Zhou Yuan...

"Hey, how high are you going to stack my book?" Zhou Yuan looked at Su Youwei helplessly, the latter was obviously a little distracted at this time, so he stacked the books on his desktop like stacks of Arhats.

"Huh?" Su Youwei also came back to her senses, looked at her masterpiece in front of her, her little face suddenly turned red, and she quickly put it down: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I'll clean it up again!" ”

Her appearance is even more cute, so when the eyes around her looked at Zhou Yuan, they immediately became much more fierce, thinking that if it weren't for the jealousy of Zhou Yuan's identity as His Royal Highness, I am afraid that she would have come out to save the goddess a long time ago.

"Now that you're beautiful, I don't dare to call you." Sensing those gazes, Zhou Yuan had no choice but to shake his head and say in a low voice.

When Su Youwei heard this, she also smiled lowly and said, "Then I'll put some material on my face in the future to make me uglier?" ”

Zhou Yuan could only roll his eyes at this.

"That's right..."Zhou Yuan tapped his finger on the desktop and said, "How many pulses have you opened now?" ”

Su You was slightly stunned, glanced at Zhou Yuan, and then said cautiously: "The third vein." ”

She knew that Zhou Yuan seemed to have been unable to open the pulse for some reason, so when the two got along, she didn't take the initiative to mention the matter of opening the pulse, and never showed off her progress, for fear that saying it would stimulate Zhou Yuan's sensitivity.

"The third vein, at this rate, I'm afraid it will be a year or two before the eight veins will be fully opened." Zhou Yuan exclaimed, Su Youwei's talent in cultivation is obviously extremely outstanding, and it has only been less than a year to reach the achievements of others in several years.

This made him extremely proud, and it seemed that he had inadvertently picked up a treasure.

"Two months will be this year's big exam, you work hard, strive to open the fourth pulse, and then enter the top ten in the big exam, your place, but I took a lot of effort to get it, as long as you enter the top ten, you will be personally taught by the lord of the mansion at that time, which is of great benefit to you." Zhou Yuan said.

Su Youwei's little hand that cleaned up the table stiffened slightly, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Zhou Yuan.

"What's wrong?" Sensing her changes, Zhou Yuan was a little puzzled.

Su Youwei's face was about to be buried in her chest, and she said in a low voice: "I, I don't have that quota anymore." ”

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment, then his brows furrowed, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

His tone was not heavy, but it made Su Youwei's heart beat faster, Bei Yan bit his red lips tightly, and he couldn't speak for a long time, but a girl who had a good relationship with Su Youwei on the side interjected: "It's not that Xu Lin, a few days ago he said bad things about you everywhere in the mansion, Youwei reasoned with him and asked him to apologize, that guy said that as long as Youwei fought with him and won him, he would apologize, but if he lost, he would give him her place in the big exam." ”

Zhou Yuan frowned, and said, "Then Xu Lin has only opened two veins, so he shouldn't be able to beat Youwei, right?" ”

The girl pursed her lips and said, "Youwei is also one of these geniuses who opened up the third vein, and that Xu Lin is very shameless, and he actually relied on the benefits of the source soldiers to win Youwei by luck." ”

Zhou Yuan's face was not very good-looking, he stared at Su Youwei, who lowered his head, and said reproachfully: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

Su Youweiyu's hands were twisted together, and she said in a low voice: "It's that I'm useless, and I don't want to cause more trouble with His Highness." ”

Seeing her appearance, Zhou Yuan was also a little distressed, this Nizi was sometimes stubborn, which was also a headache, so his cold eyes looked at Xu Lin who had been smiling and looking at this side in the church.

"Set up a situation to bully a girl, Xu Lin, you are really a good means?" Zhou Yuan sneered, this guy obviously took a fancy to the big exam quota in Su Youwei's hand, so he deliberately set up a situation to provoke Su Youwei and use the quota to compete with him.

Xu Lin said lazily: "I don't know what His Highness said, so many people have seen it, I won the quota with my strength, so even if His Highness asks for it in person, I will not return it." ”

Zhou Yuan said lightly: "Do you dare to fight again?" ”

Xu Lin smiled and said, "I'm not interested." ”

Last time, he was just a fluke, and now that Su Youwei has opened the third vein, he will not be an opponent.

Zhou Yuan glanced at Xu Lin and sneered: "I didn't let you fight with Youwei, I mean, let you fight with me!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant with a faint light from his arms, put it on the desk, and said, "If you win, this piece of Juyuan jade is yours." ”

In the church, there were some exclamations suddenly, and many eyes looked at the jade pendant with covetousness, this kind of Juyuan jade is quite good for cultivation, and wearing it for a long time can speed up the speed of opening up the eight veins, and it is quite expensive.

"Your Highness!" Su Youwei is also in a hurry.

She was not because of the Juyuan Jade, but because Zhou Yuan wanted to personally fight Xu Lin, but Zhou Yuan didn't even open one vein, how could he be the opponent of Xu Lin who opened two veins?

Zhou Yuan waved his hand at Su Youwei, played with the jade pendant, and smiled at Xu Lin, smiling with sarcasm.

"This time, do you dare?"

Xu Lin stared at Juyuan Jade with slightly fiery eyes, licked his mouth, and then sneered at Zhou Yuan, and said, "Since His Highness insists on giving me this Juyuan Jade, then I will be disrespectful." ”

"But the fists and feet have no eyes, and they will hurt His Highness later, so don't blame me."

Although it was strange Zhou Yuan's actions, Xu Lin didn't think that the person who opened two veins would not be able to beat even a person who didn't open one vein!

"I hope you have what it takes." Zhou Yuan was noncommittal.

Xu Lin laughed loudly, just as Zhou Yuan had a hard mouth, shook his sleeve robe, and went outside, and the low laughter, with a touch of playfulness and banter, came back from afar.

"Okay, I'm waiting for His Highness in the martial arts arena, I want to see how His Highness can win back the quota today?!"

Chapter 4: The Power of the Source Pattern

Da Zhou Mansion, martial arts field.

A number of martial arts platforms stand, a large number of teenagers shouting and fighting on it, fists and feet, but the momentum is not weak, and under the stage, there are many onlookers, from time to time burst out some cheers, including some young and beautiful girls, beautiful eyes look forward to it, which attracts the teenagers on the stage to be more enthusiastic, and they want to show off and show off by all means.

In this Great Zhou Mansion, the popularity of the martial arts arena is obviously quite not weak.

When Xu Lin slowly boarded a martial arts stage, the news that he would fight Zhou Yuan had already spread directly to the entire martial arts arena under his secret manipulation.

"What? His Royal Highness Zhou Yuan wants to fight Xu Lin?! ”

"How is that possible! His Royal Highness Zhou Yuan has not opened one vein now, while Xu Lin has already opened two veins! ”

"This Xu Lin is really a bully, he must have used some despicable means to force His Royal Highness Zhou Yuan."

“......”

When many students heard the news, they immediately broke out in disbelief, and some civilian students were even more upset about Zhou Yuan, just because this kind of fight was too unfair.

Those who open the pulse, every time they open a meridian, their physical fitness will be improved, and their strength, speed, reaction, etc. are far beyond those who have not opened the pulse.

Xu Lin stood on the stage, and when he heard these voices, he just smiled faintly, no matter what others said, but after today, the fact that Zhou Yuan was beaten by him will inevitably spread all over the Great Zhou Mansion, and this will undoubtedly cause some blows to the latter's reputation, thus becoming a joke in everyone's mouth.

When Xu Lin's ill-intentioned thoughts were surging, the crowd around his stage suddenly split, and only a thin young man strolled over.

The appearance of the young man is slightly thin, with a bookish face, with a gentle and elegant temperament, and he looks like a weak scholar.

Naturally, it is Zhou Yuan.

In the eyes with different expressions around him, Zhou Yuan went directly to the martial arts platform where Xu Lin was.

"Your Highness." Behind him, Su Youwei followed with a little anxious face, obviously wanting Zhou Yuan to dispel the idea of fighting Xu Lin.

"At this time, I can't retreat, otherwise, I will have to become His Highness who escaped." Zhou Yuan smiled at Su You and said.

Su Youwei stopped, biting her red lips tightly, she knew that if Zhou Yuan was burdened with this kind of reputation, it would be a huge blow to his reputation.

Su Youwei raised her pretty face, and her beautiful eyes looked at Xu Lin on the martial arts stage, at that moment, her eyes narrowed slightly, and faintly, there was a bit of a sharp taste.

"Your Highness, this time I didn't do a good job and caused trouble for Your Highness, in the future, I won't be careless anymore, and I won't show mercy anymore." Su Youwei said softly.

She would lose in Xu Lin's hands before, in fact, there was a big reason because she didn't make a ruthless move, otherwise Xu Lin wouldn't even have the opportunity to use the source soldier, but this time the lesson made her understand that if she didn't hit a snake for seven inches, she would be bitten by a snake.

Zhou Yuan was stunned, winked at Su Youwei, and said, "We are friends, and it is natural to solve some troubles for our friends." ”

When the words fell, he had already stepped on the stage.

Su Youwei looked at his back, smiled slightly, and there was a trace of warmth in her heart, and then her eyes drooped slightly, and she had already made up her mind, as long as Xu Lin dared to hurt Zhou Yuan, then she had to let the latter know what a little woman's grudge and revenge were.

"Yo, Your Highness really dared to come, I thought you would sneak back to the palace." Xu Lin looked at Zhou Yuan who walked in front of him with a smile, and said jokingly.

"Looks like you're confident in yourself." Zhou Yuan gently arranged the cuffs and said.

"I didn't expect that even His Royal Highness would be angry at the crown, but he was just a little irrational." Xu Lin shrugged his shoulders, obviously taking Zhou Yuan's impulsive behavior as wanting to please Su Youwei.

"Let's get started." Zhou Yuan didn't mean to talk nonsense with him, his feet stretched out, like an old tree grasping the earth, and then beckoned to Xu Lin and said, "Let you attack first." ”

As soon as these words came out, the many teenagers and girls around the martial arts platform looked at each other, and they really couldn't understand what Zhou Yuan was thinking, he was obviously on the weak side, but he was still so unscrupulous.

"Since Your Highness wants to lose face quickly, then I'm welcome." Being so despised by Zhou Yuan, Xu Lin also felt a cloud of anger in his heart, a sneer, the soles of his feet slammed on the ground, and his figure shot out like sharp arrows, his five fingers clenched into a fist, and he swung straight at Zhou Yuan with one punch.

His punch, with a current, is full of power, even if it is a stone, it will be smashed into a crack.

Looking at the heavy punch, Zhou Yuan did not dodge, but crossed his arms in front of him and made a defensive gesture.

However, his posture caused the faces of the people below to show unbearable expressions, with Xu Lin's physical fitness to open up the two veins, this punch may be able to directly break Zhou Yuan's bones.

Under the gaze of many nervous eyes, Xu Lin descended the mountain like a tiger, and the fierce punch slammed into Zhou Yuan's arms without leaving behind.

Boom!

A low voice sounded, and then everyone saw as expected, Zhou Yuan's feet directly scratched a few meters on the ground, so that he could stabilize his body.

Yes!

A scream erupted.

However, it was not Zhou Yuan who sent it, but Xu Lin, who had blasted out a menacing punch before.

Everyone looked at this scene in amazement, Xu Lin held his fist, kept screaming, and the whole fist was red, as if it had been smashed on the steel.

"You! What are you hiding in your sleeve?! Vile! Xu Lin burst into tears of pain and roared at Zhou Yuan.

The eyes around him also looked at Zhou Yuan in astonishment, could it be that His Highness is still engaged in small means?

In the midst of the many muttering eyes, Zhou Yuan slowly lifted his sleeve robe, and then, everyone saw that on his arms, there was a complex light pattern, the light pattern emitted a faint black light, spreading, and finally covered Zhou Yuan's arms, it looked like the skin had turned into a piece of black iron, extremely hard.

"This..."

Many students looked at the complex light pattern in shock, and finally someone suddenly exclaimed: "That's the iron skin pattern that the lecturer taught before!" ”

Everyone suddenly realized that it was the source pattern!

Su Youwei's tense heart also let go at this time, and she breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily: "It turns out that His Highness has been able to carve the source pattern on his body. ”

"You, you actually carved the source pattern on your body?!" That Xu Lin also came back to his senses, he looked at the black source pattern on Zhou Yuan's arms, and said in disbelief.

Although he had seen Zhou Yuan depicting the iron skin pattern in the church before, it was only on the jade plate, if he wanted to depict it on the body, he must also be proficient in the position of the human body's acupuncture points and even meridians, so as to avoid being injured by the source pattern, so it is far more difficult to depict the source pattern on the body than on the jade plate.

However, just when they couldn't even depict the source pattern on the jade plate, Zhou Yuan had already begun to apply what he had learned... The gap between these is really not a star and a half.

"Do you really think that I haven't opened my pulse, but I have no power to tie the chicken?" Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

Xu Lin's face was pale, and he had a sense of annoyance at being played, and immediately said in a cold voice: "Do you really think that with an iron skin pattern, you can win me today?" ”

"Now let me show you the difference between those who have opened their pulses and those who have not opened their pulses!"

"Open the pulse!"

As Xu Lin drank violently, he saw a slight flow of light suddenly appear around him, the dust under his feet was swept away, and the source qi between heaven and earth poured into his body along his breath.

Whew.

His robes were all agitated at this time, and the hunting sounded.

On the surface of his skin, a faint light appeared, and everyone could feel that Xu Lin's momentum was skyrocketing at this time.

The complexion of many students changed slightly, and at this time, Xu Lin already had a source qi flowing in his body, and the source qi flowed along the meridians, which would undoubtedly make Xu Lin's strength and speed skyrocket.

In the solemn eyes of many students, Zhou Yuan also stared at Xu Lin, and said to himself: "Open the two veins..."

"I let you attack before, so this time, it's time to replace me."

The moment the voice fell, Zhou Yuan had already stepped on the soles of his feet, and his body rushed directly towards Xu Lin.

"Arrogant, now you, your speed, strength and physical fitness are not as good as one-tenth of mine, and you still dare to attack?" Xu Lin saw Zhou Yuan rushing over, and immediately sneered.

"Really?"

The corners of Zhou Yuan's mouth seemed to be smiling.

The next moment, at the bare place of his feet, a faint light suddenly appeared, and faintly visible light lines spread out.

Swish!

Zhou Yuan's body seemed to have become much lighter at this time, and his speed skyrocketed, rushing out like a cheetah.

"That's... That's a light body tattoo! Someone saw the light patterns on the bare part of Zhou Yuan's feet, and immediately screamed.

And just as they were screaming, Zhou Yuan, who was already close to Xu Lin, suddenly shook his shoulders violently, and a faint light emanated from under his clothes, although he couldn't see clearly, everyone could clearly feel that Zhou Yuan's fist was full of a sense of brutal power at this time.

"Wild Cow Pattern!" Screaming again.

Iron skin lines, light body lines, wild cow lines!

At this time, even Su Youwei couldn't help but cover her little mouth, and her pretty face was full of incredulity, because in just a few breaths, Zhou Yuan urged three source patterns one after another.

In other words, the three source patterns taught by the lecturer have been learned by Zhou Yuan, and they have also been used on his own body.

Boom!

Under the gaze of many eyes, Zhou Yuan, who was urging the three source patterns one after another, the fist containing strong power was already in Xu Lin's terrifying eyes, and it was extremely fast and slammed into his body.

Boom!

With the assistance of the three source patterns, Zhou Yuan at this time, whether it is speed, strength or physical fitness, is obviously not weaker than Xu Lin, so when this punch fell, Xu Lin felt a huge force surge, and then, his body flew out directly and fell heavily on the ground outside the martial arts platform.

Outside the martial arts stage, the original noise became silent at this time, and many teenagers and girls stared at Zhou Yuan on the stage with incredible eyes.

No one expected that this encounter would be such a result.

On the martial arts stage, Zhou Yuan slowly withdrew his fist, and the light patterns on his arms seemed to be exhausted at this time, and they quickly disappeared.

He rubbed his wrist, then jumped off the martial arts stage, reached out and took out a jade plaque from Xu Lin's arms, which was the quota representing the big exam.

"You can't even beat a person who hasn't opened the pulse, so don't be embarrassed by the big exam." Zhou Yuan smiled at Xu Lin, who was staring at him, and said.

Xu Lin heard this, and then felt the many mocking eyes around him, and suddenly his heart was blocked, and a mouthful of blood finally couldn't help but spurt out, and then his eyes went black, and he fainted directly.

He knew that from tomorrow onwards, he would become a fresh joke in the mouths of many students in the Great Zhou Mansion...
