Chapter Twenty-Four: To Each His Heart
Ye Shaofeng stood stiffly in the hall, there was blood in his throat, and there was unspeakable bitterness in his heart.
The black-robed lecturer didn't really kill his mind, so the tips of his fingers were just touching his Adam's apple, causing him to only slightly slash his Adam's apple.
A cultivator at the level of a high-level Great Soul Master was already extraordinary in the outside world, but even with what he knew, it was indeed nothing in this Qingluan Academy.
But it was precisely because this black-robed lecturer was only cultivating as a Great Soul Master of the same level as him that his heart was even more bitter.
What the other party said was only a lecturer in the Department of Liberal Arts, and his combat power was also at the bottom of all the lecturers in Qingluan Academy, and this sentence was obviously true at the moment.
However, as an outstanding figure in the Imperial City Young Zhuang Sect, he usually has no opponent among cultivators of the same level, but he is no match for the lecturer of the Department of Liberal Arts who is not amazing in Qingluan Academy?
And it was a face-to-face, and he was defeated by the other party, defeated so miserably, and defeated so simply.
It turned out that the other party deliberately said that, not because he was afraid of fighting him, but because he reminded him that losing to a lecturer who was at the bottom of the battle in Qingluan Academy would be even more faceless.
The opponent's shoulder was obviously also injured a lot, but if it was really fought on the battlefield, the result would be that the opponent still had combat strength, but he was already dead.
Looking at the black-robed lecturer who was still walking back to the door of the hall with a slight trembling body, Ye Shaofeng finally understood why the other party was so proud, why Qingluan Academy was so proud....because even if it was a cultivator of the same level, Qingluan Academy's and the outside world were different.
The pride of the college is always built on strong strength and self-confidence.
Therefore, only if we can overpower the strength of Qingluan Academy, we will not be able to eliminate the innate pride of Qingluan Academy.
After standing stiff for a moment, Ye Shaofeng, who had understood a lot of truths, swallowed the blood and bitterness that permeated his throat hard, and saluted the black-robed lecturer who was standing at the entrance of the hall, and said: "I have learned a lot from Mr. today, and he will have to ask Mr. for advice when he has the opportunity to do so, but the whole world is not the king's land, no matter how powerful it is, it is still the minister of the saint today, if it is the strong man today, he is arrogant... I'm Yun Qin, will it still be the current Yun Qin?"
The black-robed lecturer didn't look at Ye Shaofeng, nor did he disdain to speak, he just thought in his heart, this is just your idea, what does it have to do with me?
"I'm still young after all... The whole world is not the king's land, this sentence is indeed good, but who beat down half of this Yunqin country?" The black-robed lecturer was silent, but Yan Shaoqing and Feng Qianhan also showed a sneering smile on the corner of their mouths, and they also thought in their hearts, the emperor wants to take care of Qingluan Academy, but if Qingluan Academy really doesn't want to take care of this world, who can stop it... Moreover, if Dean Zhang was in Qingluan Academy, even if he was a saint today, I am afraid that he would not dare to have such an idea to let Qingluan Academy hand over those Dan recipes and cultivation methods.
So all of this still depends on Qingluan Academy's own willingness.
So they have to wait.
In fact, even Yan Shaoqing, who had the reputation of a genius in the imperial city when he was weak, always felt in his heart that it was very nonsense and absurd to meddle in Qingluan Academy, but as he went up and came into contact with more things, he also understood more and more why the emperor on the dragon couch, and why those people behind the curtain who were much stronger than him in terms of eloquence and conspiracy and small calculations had been doing such nonsense all these years. That's because Qingluan Academy is too powerful and too proud, who can guarantee that the people in the academy don't want to meddle in the imperial power now, but it won't change later?
Everything in this world is in flux like flowing water, and the human heart is the most difficult thing to guess in this world.
If you want to ask all the courtiers of the Yunqin Empire, I am afraid that most of the courtiers will say that Qingluan Academy will never do anything unfavorable to the Yunqin Empire, but I am afraid that no one can guarantee that Qingluan Academy will continue like this, and I am afraid that no one dares to guarantee that Qingluan Academy will always be loyal to the Holy Lord.
It is necessary to rely on it and be vigilant, which is a very contradictory existence.
......
Twilight descended on Qingluan Academy, and after a long night, the dawn once again shrouded this sacred place of the empire, shining on the towering and simple, palace-like palaces of the peaks.
In the peaks of Qingluan Academy, it was early summer, but in most of the rest of the Dengtian Mountain Range, it was still frosty, and the grass and trees were yellow.
Lin Xi and all the other freshmen of the Zhige Department had set off before the first rays of dawn fell on Qingluan Academy in the early morning, and marched towards a mountain in the northwest direction of Qingluan Academy, as usual, they only had enough water to drink for a day, a black cloak that could withstand the wind and cold, and a "rotten egg" that could only be used in the face of extreme danger.
"Rotten eggs" is a pill made by the college with several unique herbs, as long as the outer wax shell is crushed, it will emit billowing yellow wolf smoke, which is used for reporting, because the size is about the same as an egg, and the smell of smoke is extremely stinky, so the students of the college generally call it a rotten egg.
According to the arrangement, the wilderness survival course is a total of seven days, the first two days are free travel, rushing to the survival area "Half Snow Plain", and then they will stay in the wasteland where Lin Xi and others don't know what kind of landform they are now, and then take two days to rush back.
Because it is a free journey, and since this morning all the food has to be found by oneself, according to the rules of this course, each person can only enjoy the food he finds, so it is obviously not wise for a large group of people to walk together, so all the new students of the Zhige system are scattered and scattered, and they generally travel in the wilderness with nets. Even Lin Xi, Tang Ke, Hua Lianyue and the others were hundreds of steps apart, walking while looking for anything to eat.
But when he had just bypassed a mountain peak in the far northwest of the academy and had just officially entered a yellow withered grass wasteland outside Qingluan Academy, Lin Xi and all these scattered new students of the Zhige Department suddenly stopped.
The large crowd was also scattered, and the students who had just put on their black cloaks appeared in their sight, appearing in this waist-deep yellow withered grass wasteland.
"Heavenly?"
"There are those who have a culture and governance system, and there are even those who are related to each other. ”
"What's going on, why did they come out too?"
......
Lin Xi stopped in the wild grass in surprise, and soon he saw a lot of acquaintances from these people who were getting closer and closer, chubby and white, Zhang Ping, who looked very stable, and even people from the imperial medicine department, looking along the direction where the people from the imperial medicine department appeared, Lin Xi quickly saw Gao Yanan and Jiang Yu'er inside.
"Why did you come here early in the morning, where are you going?" Lin Xi quickly caught up with Meng Bai, who was trotting all the way, and asked with some strange and surprise.
"What, don't you know?" Meng Bai cried with a sad face, looked at Lin Xi with a little panting and replied: "This time it's not just one department of your Zhige department, it's that all departments have to carry out this long journey and field experience. ”
Lin Xi patted Meng Bai's shoulder and said, "Then are you also going to rush to the Banxue Cangyuan with us?"
Meng Bai didn't have the excitement of meeting Lin Xi before, and nodded distressedly: "Yes, I think this is a bit unfair, Lin Xi, this is a compulsory subject for your Zhige Department, and you have all experienced it a few times before, this time we have to find something to eat in the same place as you, how can we find you, and you can't find it for me." When the time comes, not all of you will be full, but the rest of us will be hungry. ”
"Want to be full? You're thinking too easily. ”
Lin Xi smiled in his heart, but thinking that saying this would definitely make Meng Bai even more devastated, so he smiled slightly, looked at Meng Bai and comforted: "Don't worry, I'll teach you something on the way, and, according to our previous experience, we are as small as ants for the wasteland of the Ascending Mountain Range, the key is to find it yourself, and it doesn't matter if you have one or two more people." The wasteland is just too big... Most of our classmates didn't touch each other at all in the process of survival, and only saw each other again on the way back. ”
"Zhang Ping. ”
Just as he was talking, Zhang Ping also rushed over, and Lin Xi greeted him with a smile.
Since the name of his ninety-pound chosen one spread, most of the freshmen of the academy were afraid of having something to do with him, and Zhang Ping now came to greet him without hesitation, which is naturally a real friendship.
Because Zhang Ping didn't just choose the same elective subjects as Lin Xi like Meng Bai, so he hasn't seen him for a long time, compared with when he first entered the academy, Zhang Ping's complexion seems to be darker, but he seems to be more stable and energetic.
"Lin Xi, I have also heard about you and Liu Yu, are you really sure that you can surpass him within a month?" After greeting, Zhang Ping looked at Lin Xi with some concern and asked directly.
After waving his hand to Gao Yanan and Jiang Yu'er, who were also walking not far away, Lin Xi looked at Zhang Ping and smiled, and asked softly, "How are you cultivating now?"
Zhang Ping was slightly stunned, looked at Lin Xi suspiciously, and said, "About one hundred and fifty catties of strength, there is still a lot of distance from the middle-level soul warrior." ”
Lin Xi smiled and stretched out his hand to him: "You shake my hand with all your strength and take a look." ”
Zhang Ping shook it hard, and immediately a strange look appeared on his face, and then he obviously used more strength, and his face was slightly red, but Lin Xi just smiled all the time, and a look of extreme surprise completely spread across Zhang Ping's face.
"You deliberately left your strength during the test, why is this?" After counting the time, Zhang Ping took a deep breath, let go of Lin Xi's hand, looked at his reddish palm, and asked with a frown.
Lin Xi also withdrew his unharmed hand, looked at Zhang Ping and said, "If I tell you that it's because the teacher who taught us martial arts class doesn't like me, and I just took advantage of the time when I didn't have the strength to practice, do you believe it?"
Zhang Ping raised his eyebrows, and before he could say anything, Meng Bai reacted, looking at Lin Xi in surprise: "Lin Xi, it turns out that you are not really only ninety pounds... So you're really better than Liu Yu?"
Hearing Meng Bai say this, Zhang Ping couldn't help but say a little speechlessly: "Meng Bai, you and Lin Xi have many opportunities to meet, and you don't even ask these questions, only now do you know, you don't care about this? What do you think is the most worthy of concern?"
Meng Bai looked at the endless wilderness in front of him with a bitter face, and muttered, "What does it matter... The most important thing to care about is, of course, whether you can eat enough and sleep well every day. ”
Lin Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Yes, if everyone in this world thinks simply, then the most important thing to care about is whether they can eat enough and sleep well every day?
"Mengbai, that's what you think, but I'm sure that guy doesn't think so. Li Kaiyun, who had just walked over, just heard Meng Bai say this, squeezed his eyes to the side.
Following his gaze, Lin Xi saw a pale young man walking alone in the wasteland, his hair was golden, like the midday sun, bright and dazzling.
Lin Xi immediately recognized that this was the guy from the Yuhua family of the Spirit Sacrifice Department.
......
"Wine and food can only corrupt the will and soul, courage and loyalty, scars and tempering, is the most dazzling glory. ”
Thin and pale-faced, Yu Huatian left the academy students who were complaining about the hardships of the past few days, repeating these commandments in his heart, and he pulled out a few edible grass roots from a small mud puddle in shallow water, put them in his mouth and chewed them slowly. What is bitter and unpalatable to others is sweet to him.
