Dio watched Sophia and Xueni follow the old man away, and walked in the direction of the hollow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The small courtyard was still the same as before, quietly sitting there, the only difference was that the courtyard wall that was destroyed by the old man last time had been repaired at some point.

The courtyard door was hidden, and Dio thought about it, but still reached out and knocked lightly on the courtyard door.

"Who?" said a slightly hoarse voice from the courtyard, but Dio could still hear that it was Gulagas's voice.

"It's me, Dio. Dio said, pushing open the courtyard door.

The coffin that was originally parked in the middle of the courtyard was gone, and Gulagas sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, his face was haggard, and it seemed that he hadn't slept for several days and nights.

"I sent two friends to receive counseling, and I couldn't enter the old village without a sign, so I had to come to you. ”

"I didn't expect you to take the things I told you last time to heart. Gulagas's eyes softened a lot: "Sit down, it just so happens that I'm quite bored by myself." ”

Dio was not polite, sat down opposite Gulagas, carefully observed the other party, and found that Gulagas's eyes were bloodshot, and he confirmed his judgment: "How long have you not rested?"

"Why, is it that obvious?" Gulagas smiled bitterly: "You are different from me, from your point of view, you may not be able to understand my feelings, you will never know what the teacher means to me." ”

"You're not entirely right, at least one thing we all have in common. Dio looked at Gulagas: "He is also a respectable old man in my heart." ”

Gulagas smiled noncommittally, he'd heard it too much.

Dio ignored Gulagas's reaction, and said to himself: "Do you think I'm comforting you? I don't think it's necessary at all, when you reach your stage, you should be able to control your mentality very well, I want to say that respect and respect are two different concepts, there may be many people worthy of respect, but there are very few people worthy of respect." ”

Gulagas asked with some curiosity, "Then who are you worthy of respect?"

Dio was silent for a while before he said lightly: "Now only my teacher is left." ”

Gulagas opened his mouth and looked at Dio with a little surprise, with his experience, he could naturally understand the subconscious meaning of Dio's words, at least Dio had lost his parents, and something tragic must have happened to this young man.

"I'm sorry, maybe I shouldn't have asked. Gulagas himself didn't realize that at the moment he had put Dio on an equal footing with himself.

"Nothing to be sorry about, it's all in the past. Dio smiled: "That's why I wonder, even I can control my mentality, why can't you?"

Gulagas looked at Dio with a complicated expression, and after a while, he smiled wryly and sighed: "You don't understand......"

Dio was a little helpless, comforting people had never been his forte, and this time it was only reluctantly.

"Have you seen all the things that the teacher left for you?" Gulagas took the initiative to change the subject.

Dio nodded: "I started to read it, but I haven't finished reading it yet." ”

"Do you feel anything?"

"Touch...... How do you say that?" this time it was Dio's turn to sigh: "All I can say is that it was tough. ”

"You can't understand the above things?" Gulagas asked strangely, "You can even release the Thunder Light Wind Blade, what else can't you learn?"

"Do you know how I felt when you handed me those things?" Dio sighed and said, "I accept it, I can't let it be buried in my hands, but I'm just a little extreme warrior, and the pressure is too much." ”

"There's pressure to be motivated. Gulagas smiled and said, "This is the teacher's trust in you. ”

Time passed quickly in the conversation between the two, and before a few hours had passed, Dio looked at the sky, knew that it was inconvenient for him to stay too long, and after saying goodbye to Gulagas, he left the courtyard.

A day passed in the blink of an eye, and the figures of Sophia and Xueni walked out of the old village, and Dio hurriedly greeted them.

It seems that Sophia and Xueni are very good-looking, and their expressions prove that they have gained a lot from this trip.

"How's it going? Have you seen the Mentor Didi that Isabel told me?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Sophia wrinkled her nose: "But Mentor Didi seems to prefer Shelly more, Isabel is right, Shelly's surname is really similar to Mentor Diddy." ”

"Do you have to be jealous too?" Xue Ni pinched Sophia's nose funny: "Then do I still envy you, have a fiancé like Theo?"

"I'm sorry for you. Sophia grimaced at Xueni and ran to Dio's side and grabbed Dio's arm: "Let's go, go home." ”

Along the way, Dio asked about the tutoring, Sophia and Xue Ni were very emotional, they really couldn't figure it out, how could a person like Didi be willing to stay in such a small mountain village, although Didi's age is a little too old, and there is basically no hope of being promoted to a martial artist, but even so, Didi's strength must not be underestimated.

For this matter, Dio has another understanding, so many strong people gathered together, itself is already very telling, Dio is almost certain that Hoffman the Lionheart must be planning something, but these have little to do with Dio, no matter what Hofmann the Lionheart wants to do, its ultimate goal should be no conflict with Dio, at least for Dio now.

When Dio took Sophia and Xue Ni back to the dormitory, the individual competition of the senior department was about to start, Cangnan and Price came to visit Dio, and now Cangnan has no objection to Dio's participation in the individual competition of the senior department, and Dio's strength proves that he has this qualification.

"There are a few guys like me who are about to enter the limit department to participate in the competition this year, and there are a few people in it who should be stronger than me, so you have to be careful. Cangnan reminded Theo not to be careless.

"Don't worry, I won't make that kind of low-level mistake. "Dio has already fought with a strong man at the level of Martial Venerable more than once, even if the students of the senior department are strong, there is no problem for Dio to protect himself.

After returning from the old village, Sophia, Isabel, and Xue Ni were closed every day, constantly cultivating, even if they occasionally rested for a while, they would take advantage of this leisure time to exchange their cultivation experiences, strictly speaking, Didi and those people did not teach them any powerful secret skills, but just guided them in a direction, but this was enough. Whether it's Sophia or Isabel, the foundation is very strong, and that's what is missing.

Seeing that these girls are undergoing new changes every day, Gordon and Raymond can't sit still, cultivating this kind of thing, sometimes it depends on the atmosphere, if the people around them are lazy and lazy, then it is difficult for them to be active.

The Song of Death Academy is indeed a good place to cultivate, except for the tasks of each month, the rest of the time can be used for cultivation, unlike when there are so many trivial things to deal with when you are outside.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and the individual competition of the senior department finally began, and the first game of Dio was drawn by a student of the senior department called Ssalda, according to Cangnan, this Ssalda is a local samurai, tall and strong, and a little famous in the senior department.

Ground samurai...... Dio frowned, to be honest, the battle with the earth warriors was the hardest, although compared to the water warriors and fire warriors, the attack power of the earth warriors was a bit lackluster, but their excellent defense capabilities made up for this deficiency very well, and the wind warriors were destined to spend a lot of time to deal with this turtle shell-like defense.

Dio also thought about whether to use the Thunder Light Wind Blade, and now the fact that he has the Thunder Light Wind Blade can no longer be regarded as a secret, but in the end Dio still dispelled this idea, this is a game in the academy, and it is not a life-and-death fight, there is no need to use such drastic means, of course, if the opponent wants to do anything in the game, then Dio does not mind leaving a deep lesson to the other party.

The individual competition of the senior department is still in the same arena, but there are a few new faces among the instructors in the stands, and there are still many people in the stands, and there are many students from the lower department, although they can't play in person, but at least they can learn something from this high-level competition, and the process of the game is also a learning process for them.

Dio stood on the stage and looked at Ssalda opposite, although Cangnan had already said that the other party's figure was very burly, but it was still not as shocking as the visual impact, where is this burly, it is clearly a giant.

There are more than two meters tall Ssalda, standing there is like a hill, the most iconic surname is the weed-like beard, which looks like a middle-aged uncle, but Dio clearly remembers that Cangnan mentioned that Ssalda's age is definitely not more than twenty-five years old, this contrast is too big, right?

The students in the stands were very excited, on one side was Dio, who was very loud in the lower division, and on the other side was Ssalda, who was known as the top ten in the defense ability of the senior division.

With the sound of a bell, the instructor rang the small bell in hand, and the game began.
