Xiao Chen stood up and looked at the terrifying crack in his chest, it was really thrilling.

Claire's last Blood Moon Slash almost split him in half, if it weren't for the fact that he had laid five layers of defenses one after another...... First absorb damage with annihilation, then unload with a sword, block with a wind shield, unload with a wind flow around your body, and finally have a stone skin potion!

Under the layers of defense, he was still almost killed, and he understood the horror of the two-star swordsman!

This battle was the hardest battle since he was reincarnated, and it was also the battle he gained the most!

completely broke out his strength, and at the same time, he has improved his strength, and he can definitely let go of the battle in the face of the sword master in the future!

At this moment, I felt a dark aura seeping out.

He saw De Nox standing in front of Claire's corpse, muttering an obscure and gloomy incantation, a black smoke burrowed into Claire's body, and in a short time, some red phantasmal fragments were pulled out by him.

"Denox, what are you doing?" Xiao Chen stepped forward.

De Nox said: "Master, this is the corpse of the sword master, and at the last moment, the potential exploded, and even broke through the two stars, this is definitely the best material for refining the immortal puppet, and this person has just died, I just collected the broken thoughts and souls in his body, and when the time comes, I can refine an immortal puppet comparable to the strong sword master!"

Xiao Chen remembered that when he first met Denox, he had summoned that kind of black puppet monster with infinite power!

"Your undead puppets, covered in pitch black, look like monsters, too conspicuous, and become the target of public criticism when the time comes. "Xiao Chen doesn't think it's a good thing to summon that kind of monster.

"Hehe, those are unfinished products, those puppets are too weak, I don't want to waste too much energy on them, just refine them casually! This is different, the corpse of the strong sword master can create a puppet comparable to that of a sword master, I will use various secret methods to refine it, almost no change in appearance, and can even restore the memory strength before death, but I am absolutely in control, unless he is also proficient in dark magic, it is difficult for others to recognize him as a puppet. De Nox said excitedly.

"That's ...... Then you can take care of it yourself!" Xiao Chen hesitated for a moment, and then went with Denox.

He wasn't interested in this kind of puppetry, but since De Knox was so swearing, it wouldn't hurt to add a sword master powerhouse puppet.

De Knox didn't know what spell was used, and after a cloud of smoke enveloped Claire's body, Claire's body was gone.

Then, he returned to the courtyard and picked up the paw of Claire's severed foot, for the dark mage, there is no problem in stitching the corpse together, the powerful dark mage can even stitch humans and monsters together, turning into a terrifying stitching monster, and the strength is extremely perverted!

Xiao Chen found a secluded place to heal.

The night passes quietly and the morning comes.

In the town of Tempest, some adventurers probed their brains towards the dilapidated courtyard.

The courtyard where the Tornia family lives is at the very edge of the town, and there is Claire, a swordsman, who normally, no adventurer dares to approach, but there was such an earth-shattering battle last night, and almost everyone saw the fierce fighting spirit shining in the middle of the night, and the speed faster than lightning.

These people, with a strong sense of curiosity, will naturally come to the neighborhood to have a look.

Soon, they found the tattered and ruined battlefield...... A black figure slowly walked into the town.

Xiao Chen, who was wearing a cloak, even stopped for a moment around the courtyard where the battle had been fought, saw many onlookers and adventurers, and even heard a lot of discussions.

"The people of the Tornia family are dead. ”

"What's going on, I heard some time ago that the young master of their family died in the valley, and now, their people are dying here again, could it be that someone is specifically going to deal with the Tornia family. ”

"Who knows, but it seems that I can't see the body of the sword master, and it is estimated that the sword master may not die!"

"Next, I'm afraid that Tempest Town will be in chaos, and their people will die here, and the Tornia family will definitely not give up!"

"Absolutely, we're going to leave this land of right and wrong. ”

Xiao Chen stood in the crowd, listening to many discussions, smiled faintly, and turned to leave this place.

He soon came to the airship harbor, today's airship harbor is particularly crowded, it is about this killing, so that many adventurers do not want to stay here anymore, the last Illinois death, made the Tornia family make the Crazy Valley restless, this time, so many Tornia family people died here, the town of Tempest may not be peaceful.

Xiao Chen spent several times more money to buy a ticket and entered the airship...... Skystar Academy.

As the end of the year draws closer and closer, the college is busy with various assessments, competitions, and summaries!

However, among all these assessments and competitions, the most concerned is naturally the Inner Court Assessment, which is the biggest event in the Outer Court, and it is said that every year its grandeur will even attract the big names of the empire to come to watch.

Many old antiques that are not born in the inner courtyard will also appear in the assessment.

The inner courtyard is no longer just about students, but seriously speaking, the inner courtyard is more like a higher-level cultivation.

It is no longer a college-style education, but more of a sect-like inheritance, many old antiques in the inner courtyard will appear to choose their own students, and only by these old antiques can they become students in the inner courtyard, that is to say, the relationship between master and apprentice is greater than the relationship between teachers and students.

The Intermediate Ministry of Magic was overcrowded, and a carriage was passing through.

In the carriage, two people were seated.

One of them was a woman with a complexion like white porcelain, black hair like a mirror, and thunder and lightning flashing in her purple eyes, and the other teenager, with long purple hair, a handsome face, and an elegant temperament, sat on the side.

Feeling the mana pressure on the purple-eyed woman, the young man smiled and said, "Sister, this time you are out of the customs, it seems that there has been a breakthrough in strength, have you already broken through to the mage realm." ”

"Mage......" The purple-eyed woman shook her head faintly: "No, but it's almost there." ”

"Great, as long as my sister advances to the mage, then our kingdom can have a mage in charge, and then the nearby Heron Kingdom and Niam Kingdom will no longer dare to be arrogant in front of our kingdom. The boy said.

The purple-eyed woman frowned slightly, but did not answer.

"In this inner courtyard assessment, I have broken through six stars, and in another year at most, I will definitely enter the inner courtyard. The boy said excitedly.

The carriage drove all the way through the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, and soon came to a small building in the Ice Blue Lake.

After knocking on the door, Xiaolou's door opened, revealing a beautiful face coiled in green silk, when she saw Zihuang and the young man behind her, she was obviously stunned, and then said slightly respectfully: "Mentor Zihuang, why are you here?"

Zihuang looked at the girl in front of her, but she was confused, she had always had a bad memory for people.

The young man's eyes lit up when he saw Jia Luoxue, and he went up and said in a soft and pleasant voice: "Hello, beautiful young lady, let's go find Sister Xuewei Xuerui, I don't know if she lives here." ”

Jia Luoxue glanced at the handsome young man, let open the door and said, "Xue Wei Xuerui is inside, Teacher Zihuang, you come in first!"

"Okay, thank you. Zihuang smiled.

As soon as she walked in, Zihuang looked around curiously, it was the first time she had come here, after Xue Wei Xuerui entered the Intermediate Magic Department, she entered the inner courtyard to hone and impact the realm of the Supreme Mage.

Therefore, in the past six months, I have not guided Xuewei Xuerui again, and this is the first time I have come here after leaving the customs.

Galo Xue went up to the second floor, and not long after, she heard the sound of footsteps from above, and after a while, two almost identical figures ran down from the second floor.

"Teacher!" Xue Wei Xuerui saw the purple phoenix standing downstairs, and shouted in unison, extremely happy.

They studied in Tianxing Academy and have been following Zihuang for two years, so it can be said that except for Xiao Chen, Zihuang is the person they respect the most.

Then, when they saw the handsome young man again, Xue Rui's face was a little ugly, but Xue Wei smiled faintly and greeted, "His Highness Ziyu!"

"Xuewei, Xuerui, I'm so glad to see you. Ziyu said gently.

"Pretend. Xue Rui scolded in her heart.

Zihuang turned around when he heard the sound at this time, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This is still the twins in memory, the twins at this time, compared to when they first entered the intermediate magic department half a year ago, they are much taller, and they seem to be a little older, but this is also normal, what surprised her was the temperament of the twins.

That kind of calmness, calmness, and a momentum exuded on his body are definitely not comparable to half a year ago.

"You ......" If it weren't for the twins' unchanged appearances, Zihuang would almost be unrecognizable.

"Teacher, sit down and talk. The twins came over and took her hand.

"Xue Wei Xuerui, you have changed a lot. After Zihuang sat down, he looked at the twins beside him up close, and felt even stronger.

"yes, it's a lot prettier. Ziyu praised.

Zihuang frowned slightly, this was not what she was going to say, she said to the twins: "In the past six months, have you gone out to practice?"

"Yes, we followed the young master to the Night Forest. Xue Wei said.

"Night Forest?" Purple Phoenix's eyes flashed, it was a fierce place on the same level as the Black Blood Swamp.

"Your young master, it's that Xiao Chen...... I don't know where he is now?" Ziyu suddenly interjected.

"Young Master, I haven't come back yet. Xue Wei said.

"Didn't come back? hehe, hehe, I trained hard outside. Now that the end of the year is approaching, the inner court assessment is about to begin, Xiao Chen, wasn't he the first place in the assessment at the beginning? I don't know if this time I am ready, and I will take the first place again. The corners of Ziyu's mouth turned up, and there was a hint of a vague smile.

The sarcasm in his words is understandable to everyone, the last time he took the first place was the mid-term assessment, they were all students of the junior Ministry of Magic, this time, but the inner courtyard assessment of the intermediate Ministry of Magic, over the past ten years, I don't know how many geniuses have been accumulated, and they are all sharpening their knives and preparing to enter the inner courtyard.

To get the first place among these people, how could it be possible for a student who had just entered the Intermediate Magic Department for half a year!

Xue Wei Xuerui's face was gloomy.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded abruptly: "I don't think there's any problem with Xiao Chen taking the first place." ”

Everyone looked over, sat next to them, and Jia Luoxue, who had not spoken, said this calmly.

"Heh, hehe......" Ziyu laughed a few times, as if he felt like he had heard a joke.

But he soon found that no one echoed him, and the twin sisters glanced at each other and said, "Sister Jia Luo is right, we also think that Young Master Xiao Chen will be the first in this inner court assessment." ”

Ziyu's mouth twitched, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"That bastard, the grass chicken that pees his pants, the soft egg, can take the first, to hell. He roared in his heart, but he couldn't show it, if he said that, wouldn't it mean that what he just said was mocking Xiao Chen, of course he wouldn't do it, it didn't match his usual graceful and calm phenomenon.

"Hehe, then I'm going to congratulate him. Zi Yupi said with a smile.

"Xue Wei, Xue Rui, what is your current strength?" Zihuang had been silent, but now he suddenly asked.

"Hee-hee, teacher, we are already seven-star now. Xue Rui smiled.

"What!" Ziyu blurted out in shock.

Even Zihuang's face changed drastically, she could only sense that there were strange mana fluctuations on the two girls just now, which was extremely strange, and it was completely different from the previous feeling, so she asked out loud, but she definitely didn't expect that the strength of the two girls turned out to be seven stars.

Seven stars, seven stars, the two girls were only four stars half a year ago, and they were admitted to the Intermediate Ministry of Magic with the strength that they had just entered the four stars.

Then half a year later, they said that they had reached the seventh star, which is something that they can't say who will believe it or who will dare to believe it.

It is a genius who has always been confident and has always been praised by the academy, Zihuang herself, who crossed from four stars to seven stars in two years, and that is already the cultivation speed that shocked countless people.

"You ...... Is it really Seven Stars?" Purple Phoenix didn't believe they would lie, but it was too shocking.

Sherry smiled and stretched out her hand!

A terrifying fiery serpent appeared in the void for a moment, but then dispersed.

"Raging Fire Serpent, three-star magic. Zihuang's eyes shrank, and he finally completely believed that Xue Rui and the others had been promoted to seven stars, and there was no doubt that they were seven stars.

"How so, impossible, impossible. Ziyu's eyes were a little demented, almost muttering.

He couldn't believe it at all, in the past half a year, he had spent countless resources, and he had worked hard to cultivate to advance to the six-star, he originally thought that he could finally save face in front of the twins, Xiao Chen was the first in the assessment, and it was only six-star spiritual power, five-star mana, even if he broke through the six-star in half a year, Ziyu was now no less than him.

And the twins, let alone comparable to him, they were only four-star half a year ago, even if they work hard, it is unthinkable to touch the threshold of five stars.

However, in front of him, the living facts directly destroyed all his confidence and belief.

Seven stars, seven stars, how is it possible, jumping three steps in a row in half a year, even including the threshold that is recognized as extremely difficult to cross from six stars to seven stars, Zi Yu's heart swelled with crazy jealousy.

Zihuang stared at Xue Wei Xuerui, she was extremely shocked in her heart, but curiosity poured out irrepressibly, this is a miracle, but there must be a reason behind it.

She never believed that the twins could cultivate to such an extent on their own.

"You guys, how did you do that? Zihuang blurted out.

But then she felt that something was wrong, this terrible speed of jumping three orders in a row in half a year must contain a secret, this kind of secret about cultivation is taboo many times, and even the closest people may not be able to say it, let alone teachers and students.

"You don't have to say it. She hurriedly added.

"Actually, we broke through with the help of the young master. Xue Wei Xue Rui glanced at each other before saying.

"Your young master, it's that Xiao Chen again......" Zihuang took a deep breath, and a figure flashed in his mind...... On the high platform, the javelin-like straight, black-haired young man, evil and arrogant eyes, staring at the spot, unscrupulous...... If half a year ago, she was just surprised by Xiao Chen's amazing strength from obscurity to sudden outburst, but just regarded him as a potential genius, she was not particularly shocked in her heart, because she herself was also a super genius who was proud of many of her peers, and she also had the heart of a strong man who would never lose to others.

So now she is really shocked, and she really imprints the name Xiao Chen into her heart.

For a person who can help others break through three stars in half a year, she is indescribable.

Such a person, he can make others break through three stars in half a year, so what about himself?

Zihuang's eyes burst out with thunder and lightning from Zizi, since she was born, she had never had such a strong curiosity and interest in a person.

At this time, in the airship harbor of the Celestial Star Academy, an airship was slowly landing.

An endless stream of passengers walked down from the airship, mixed with a figure in a white robe, with long black hair, casually draped, black eyes like black pills soaked in mercury, with an inexplicable look.

A young man with such a temperament, although his appearance is not extremely handsome, attracts the attention of many women.

He was Xiao Chen, who had just rushed back to the Heavenly Star Academy.

From the Tempest Valley, all the way through the dust, traveling tens of thousands of kilometers, before returning to the Heavenly Star Academy.

In a flash, nearly half a year has passed.

Looking at the endless stream of students entering the academy, Xiao Chen walked on the road, obviously feeling that there were many more people than before.

"Junior brother, you are also back to the academy, you have just come back from the outside training. A tall girl with blond hair walked over, also wearing the uniform of the academy, with six copper hearts on her chest, and turned out to be a six-star mage.

Xiao Chen glanced at him and nodded.

"You're also from the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, how about you go back together?" the tall blonde girl laughed.

"Forget it. I still have something. Xiao Chen refused, and as he spoke, he stopped a carriage and left.

Leaving the blonde girl frowning dissatisfied!

At this time, Xiao Chen did not rush back to the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, but first hired a carriage and came to the satellite city to go to the Castro Business Alliance.
