Chapter 41: Blessings and Woes
As the two sides drew closer, Dowling could see their clothes clearly, and there was an embroidery of Dao characters on their backs.
"Looks like this trouble is coming for me." Dowling said with an unkind gaze.
"Your name is Dowling, isn't it?" One of them slowed down.
"Yes and what? Is there anything wrong with you? Dowling asked in an unkind tone.
"It's nothing, get to know me, my name is Dao Fang, I am a member of the Imperial Capital Daoist, and the group of people in front of me are also children of the Taoist." Daofang said.
"Really? So what's that? If you have something, just say it, and don't get in the way if you have nothing to do. Dowling said impatiently.
"You know what? Now this position is about the 500th place, as long as we stop in front, you don't want to be selected for the academy. Dao Fang said with a sneer.
"Is that all you can do?" Dowling laughed out loud.
"It doesn't matter if you say it, anyway, my grandfather is the vice dean, and I have the opportunity to enter the academy." With that, Dao Fang increased the speed of his feet and returned to the front of the human wall.
"Do you want me to clean them up?" Quit Drinking said loudly, the voice was not loud or small, but Dao Lin was sure that the Taoist disciples in front of him would definitely be able to hear it.
"Look how you freak them out." Dowling's slightly mocking voice rang out.
Just as the two were talking and laughing, there was a sound of footsteps behind them, and Dowling looked back and saw a young man in a black robe rushing towards him.
The young man's face was very relaxed, he didn't use the blessing of internal force, but his speed was ridiculously fast, and in the blink of an eye, he surpassed Dowling and Qu Liquor and rushed forward.
Facing the Taoist disciple in front of him, he jumped up directly, like a big bird, and he had already reached the front of the human wall.
"This body method is good, obviously I have been cultivating since I was a child." A look of surprise flashed in his eyes and he said.
"I really envy you who have cultivated since childhood, you have a good foundation." Dowling nodded in agreement.
In the Taoist team, Dao Fang looked at the young man who fell on his side, a touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, he suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the young man, and he could vaguely see a streamer flashing on his fingertips.
The young man didn't look back, he threw a punch with his backhand, his fists and fingers touched, and he felt a huge force coming, and his original pace of progress paused slightly.
The boy took advantage of his strength and rushed forward.
"Damn it......" Dao Fang scolded secretly, and roughly judged the strength of the young man in his heart, he was indeed not the opponent of the other party.
Time passed little by little, because Dao Lin and Jiu had not paid attention to the obstruction of the Taoist team, so the ranking has not improved much, except for surpassing some martial artists who lost their strength halfway, their ranking should still be in the back of the four hundred.
When they were desperately climbing the mountain, on a mountain peak in the distance, six figures were watching them.
Song Haotian stood aside with a slight bow, pointing out the abstinence from alcohol to everyone.
"Xiao Song, is that the child you said was the peak of the grandmaster?" A stout man with a rough face asked.
Song Haotian turned around slightly and said, "Dean Xiuxian, his name is quitting drinking, he is eighteen years old this year, and his specific origin is unknown, so that's all he knows." ”
"Dean Duanmu is the second son." Dean Li Xiuxian of Chongming Academy nodded, and he asked Duanmu Jinglong on the side in a flat tone.
Duanmu Jinglong smiled and didn't answer, just kidding, don't say it's him, who one of the people present doesn't look down on such a genius.
An emaciated old man with a hooked nose spoke, and said in a slightly sarcastic voice: "Brother Duanmu has already been there in advance?" ”
The person who spoke was Chen Hexuan, the dean of Jinshan College.
"Hexuan, it's undignified to say this, everyone holds the test for fair competition." It was Li Xiuxian who spoke.
Neither the deans of Langyuan Academy nor Qianyuan Academy made a statement.
Standing at the forefront, Duanmu Jinglong suddenly spoke: "Have you ever thought about what kind of master can teach such a strong genius."
Yesterday, Haotian had a brief contest with him, saying that he had strong internal strength, and he was no worse than the extraordinary.
And he also said that he had killed a hall master of the Cult Hidden Society, an eight-rank transcendent martial artist.
Dean Lang Yuan, who had not spoken, pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, it is not necessarily a blessing to have this son.
The origin is unknown, the teacher is unknown, and you can also fight across levels, you can accept this son, I Langyuan can't afford it. ”
Duanmu Jinglong nodded and said, "I did go to visit him with Dao Qingyun last night, and he lived with the young man next to him.
That young man's name is Dao Lin, a martial artist of the Nine Rank Kaiyuan, and his cultivation qualifications are average.
But the little monk said that he would go to whichever academy Dowling went to.
The meaning is very firm, so the little monk has to attach this Daolin.
I asked Qingyun, and he said that this Dowling was the grandson of his eldest brother, and he had returned to the countryside in his early years, which could not be said to be an opportunity, and he could get a genius by recruiting Dowling.
I have already shared the method with you, and you can decide for yourself whether you want it or not. ”
After Duanmu Jinglong finished speaking, he stopped speaking, and looked at the abstinence from alcohol running on the stairs down the mountain, not knowing what he was thinking about in his heart.
At this time, Daolin's physical strength, which had already climbed to the mountainside, had begun to lose his strength.
Quit drinking to pull him but he refused.
He struggled to quit drinking and said, "Leave me alone, it's important to reach the top first, believe me, I can keep up with you." ”
Qu Jiu looked at Dowling's confident gaze, shook his head and said, "Originally, I came to the imperial capital to join the academy, but now it is different, I think it is more important to be with my good brother. ”
Dowling showed a bitter smile at him, in fact, he was about to run out of strength, and his internal strength was about to be exhausted, at this time, the ranking was about three hundred, and the boundary of four hundred was very close, and he would be surpassed by others if he was not careful.
In front of them, the speed of the Taoist team also became slow, and the bodies of several people were constantly shaking.
Soon, the men collapsed to the ground, and Dowling passed by them, and they didn't bother to hinder them.
The further he went, the stronger the gravity became, and at this time, Dowling only felt that a mountain was pressed on his body, and his legs trembled slightly.
Suddenly, he saw a black-clothed young man meditating and pranayama next to the stairs in front of him, it was the same young man who had fought with the Dao Fang before.
Dowling dragged him to quit drinking, and his body stopped, and he sat next to the young man.
"Dude, what do you call it?" Dowling leaned over and whispered hello.
"I want to make friends with you, I don't mean anything else, it's just that you just disdained that guy, I like it very much." Dowling pointed to Dao Fang, who was still running in front of him.
The boy didn't seem to like to talk very much, and he couldn't stop Daolin's grinding, so he said coldly: "My name is Su Chen." ”
With that, Su Chen stood up, and his body suddenly accelerated towards the distant Dao Fang, leaving only Dao Lin with a cold back.
