"This is the strongest martial academy of the Qianming Dynasty of the legendary Tianmen Martial Academy, as long as you enter it, you will become a protégé of the Son of Heaven?" Niu Guifeng, who was dressed in shabby clothes, stood in front of the main gate of the martial academy, and was deeply shocked by the magnificent atmosphere.

Yun Yuanhe stood beside him and gently lined his shoulders: "Don't be envious, it won't be long before you can become one of them." Let's go inside. ”

Yun Yuantai and Yun Yuanqi were behind, and said in a low voice: "Niu Guifeng is seventeen years old this year, although his martial arts cultivation is average, he is a rune genius, his master is only a fourth-order rune master, he found him half a year ago and accepted him as a personal disciple, and it only took half a year for him to become a second-order rune master!"

This time is shorter than Sun Ang, do you think his talent is still above Sun Ang?

Fortunately, his master Shouyuan was exhausted, and this kid had no master, so he ran to Mingjing alone, and happened to be bumped into by me. Hehe, as long as Zuo Zhenzong discovers his qualifications, Sun Ang will immediately fall out of favor!"

Yun Yuanqi nodded vigorously, gritted his teeth and said: "When the time comes, without the protection of Zuo Zhenzong, and the exclusion of the new junior disciple Niu Guifeng, we can clean up Sun Ang as much as we want!"

"That's right!"

......

Sun Ang happened to tell his master that he was in retreat, and he and Zuo Zhenzong could be a little more relaxed for a while.

"Liu Shenghe's disciple?" Receiving the post, Zuo Zhenzong frowned slightly, Liu Shenghe was a fourth-order talisman master, much worse than his level, and even inferior to Zhao Wuyu. However, because the circle of talismans was small, he had heard of this person.

"Forget it, let him in. ”

Niu Guifeng walked in to greet the juniors, and then said that his master had returned to the west, Zuo Zhenzong was also a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but comfort a few words, and then asked casually: "How long have you been following Liu Shenghe and practicing? What level is it now?"

Niu Guifeng replied very "honestly" according to what Yun Yuanhe had taught before: "I have only been learning runes from my master for half a year, and I have just started, and now I am only a second-order rune master." ”

"Poof!" Zuo Zhenzong squirted out a sip of tea: "How long? What level?

"It's only been half a year, I've just started, and now I'm only a second-order talisman master. ”

Zuo Zhenzong stood up suddenly and said solemnly: "Come with me." ”

He led Niu Guifeng inside, and pointed to his workbench: "There are all kinds of materials on it, pick a second-order sigil that you are best at, and make one for me to see." ”

"Yes. Niu Guifeng stepped forward and began to make zuò.

Yun Yuanqi and the three of them hid in a corner outside, looking out from time to time: "Do you say Niu Guifeng can succeed?"

Yun Yuan was too confident: "Don't worry, it's absolutely no problem." Half a year for a second-order talisman master, it is impossible for Zuo Zhenzong not to be moved. ”

......

After four full hours, Niu Guifeng finally completed a second-order rune. This is a medium-difficulty "Quicksand Seal" of the second-order sigils, which can manipulate the earth-moving elemental energy to turn the hard ground into a piece of quicksand to trap enemies.

In the combat of low-level warriors, it is very useful. And the second-order sigils are mostly used by low-level martial artists.

Zuo Zhenzong took a look at it, and the system was decent, and it could be seen that the basic skills were quite solid, but there was no innovation.

Zuo Zhenzong couldn't help but compare him with Sun Ang: spiritually it may be worse, but it is half a year to the second order, this speed is absolutely terrifying, even if it is Sun Ang, it took a year to reach the second order.

He was a little hesitant in his heart, whether to accept another disciple.

Liu Shenghe has passed away, so Niu Guifeng is now a "free body", and it makes sense to take him as a disciple himself. However, the time for the duel of the heirs of this generation is approaching, and the resources at hand are limited, and the two disciples may have to give up one and go all out to cultivate the other.

He suddenly became entangled, although Niu Guifeng's current realm was a little worse, according to his qualifications, he should soon be able to catch up with Sun Ang......

He asked very kindly, "Where do you live, and what are your plans for coming to Mingjing?"

Niu Guifeng said: "I am temporarily living in Jingsheng Inn, and if I want to develop in Mingjing in the future, I am afraid that I will have to find a house to rent." ”

Zuo Zhenzong thought for a while, took out a box of jade money and handed it to him: "You take these money first, Liu Shenghe and I are also old acquaintances, since you have come to Mingjing, I have the obligation to take care of the deceased." You are now living at Jingsheng Inn, let me think about it and see if I can arrange an errand for you. ”

Niu Guifeng looked slightly disappointed, but he still accepted the money very respectfully, and saluted: "Thank you senior!"

After he left, Zuo Zhenzong sat alone in the room, holding his chin and looking a little in a dilemma.

In my mind, memories rolled in......

The young and vigorous Zuo Zhenzong and his junior brother Zhao Wuyu were in high spirits, but the two branches of the same vein were in a duel, and the master regretted defeat.

The opponent is extremely vicious, and the master judges himself with hatred. Before he died, he told him a thousand times to be a brother, and he was extremely reluctant.

Zuo Zhenzong and Zhao Wuyu cried into tears, that was the first time that Zuo Zhenzong understood that the inheritance he had inherited was so heavy!

In the following decades, he devoted all his energy to studying the way of runes, and without the guidance of his master, he experimented by himself little by little, and countless runes exploded, almost killing him.

But he never flinched, because if he couldn't move forward, it would be a dead end! And he still remembered the great enmity of his master, he wanted to live, and he also wanted to avenge his master.

Finally, he became a sixth-order talisman master. However, the opponent of the other team is not simple, with extraordinary talent and the guidance and help of the master, and it has also reached the level of the sixth order.

The two faced off in a duel and were evenly matched in the end.

Although both sides are very unwilling, they can only accept this ending separately. So all Zuo Zhenzong's hopes of avenging his master were pinned on his disciples.

Over the years, he continued to work hard to become a seventh-order talisman master, the first talisman master of the Qianming Dynasty. There are countless princes and nobles, close friends, who want to send their heirs to his door.

But Zuo Zhenzong refused, because he knew very well that his qualifications were insufficient, and coming to his door was to send him to death.

"Alas......" he sighed, and the shadow of Sun Ang appeared in his heart again.

There is no doubt that Sun Ang has a great appetite for him, but this is a great feud between life and death. He had to put aside his personal preferences and focus on the interests of his master.

"Perhaps, Sun Ang should be given a chance to see who is better in the qualifications of the two of them. If Sun Ang loses...... Then before the sect decision, my junior brother and I went all out to cultivate Niu Guifeng. Wait for the matter of the sect's decision to end, and then compensate Sun Ang. ”

Zuo Zhenzong made a decision, so he sent someone to find Niu Guifeng the next day and invited him to the Tianmen Martial Academy.

"Liu Shenghe has passed away, you are now a second-order talisman master, and there is still a lot of room for development in the rune seal, I don't know if you are willing to worship under my door?"

Niu Guifeng was overjoyed, and he knelt down ordinarily: "I don't dare to ask for my ears if I want to!"

Zuo Zhenzong grabbed him: "Don't apprentice first." There is something special in my sect, and Sun Ang was the same before, less than the level of a third-order talisman master, I will not admit that there is a disciple of you. ”

Niu Guifeng nodded confidently: "Don't worry, Master, I won't let you down." ”

Zuo Zhenzong smiled: "In addition, you prepare, wait for your senior brother to come out in a few days, arrange for the two of you to meet for the teacher, and also compare the potential of the two of you separately." ”

Niu Guifeng smiled and nodded: "Yes." ”

Coming out of Zuo Zhenzong, Niu Guifeng turned around a few times, confirmed that no one was following him, and appeared in the private room of a restaurant.

Yun Yuanqi and the three of them had been waiting here for a long time, and as soon as Niu Guifeng sat down, he immediately clenched his fists excitedly and waved: "It's successful! Zuo Zhenzong is already planning to accept me as a disciple, and after Sun Ang is out of the customs, he will test the potential of the two of us!"

"Hahaha! Great, this is tantamount to letting the two of you fight it out, Sun Ang will definitely lose, and then you will be the favorite disciple of Dean Zuo Zhenzong." Yun Yuanqi and the others were overjoyed, and Niu Guifeng was also full of ambition.

......

Sun Ang was sweating all over his body, and the whole person was almost prostration, but his hands were extremely calm, the last stroke was completed, the entire rune was completed, and the vitality communicated the heaven and the earth, and the forehead of the whole rune flowed, gradually affecting a subtle world order around him.

He collapsed on the ground, grinning as he looked at the faint Eight Wind Marks floating above his head.

Despite the hard work, he succeeded. The moment the third-order rune was successful, it also meant that Sun Ang had become a third-order rune master.

Generally speaking, there is a default demarcation boundary in the Terran world: the creator reaches the fourth order, and the rune master reaches the third order, and only then will they be recognized as the strength that can stand on their own.

The most secular explanation is that at this level, you can graduate from the "apprenticeship" stage and go out to earn money.

The Eight Wind Seal slowly turned, causing a trickle of breeze to blow from all directions, making Sun Ang, who was very tired, feel a hint of coolness and lift his spirits.

This is a situation where there is no full urging, if it is in the case of combat, the Eight Wind Seal will blow eight strong hurricanes, and the wind will help the fire, which can expand Sun Ang's sea of fire by more than ten times, and the flames will be even hotter.

This is very helpful to Sun Ang.

He rested for a while, his energy was exhausted, and then he jumped up from the ground, took a bath with the well water in the courtyard, changed into clean clothes, carefully wrapped the Eight Wind Seal, and went to find the master Zuo Zhenzong in a hurry.

Zuo Zhenzong has been a little distracted in the past few days, often wandering away from eating and doing things, and suddenly sighing from time to time.

When Sun Ang came, he was sitting behind his desk in a daze, and there was a half-made fourth-order sigil on the desk. Although it is a work of practice, these materials are also worth tens of thousands of jade dollars.

He was in a daze for a long time, and suddenly woke up and looked down to see that the processed materials had expired, and the entire fourth-order rune was scrapped.

He shook his head with a wry smile, and then sighed again, talking to himself, as if to convince himself: "Sun Ang can understand, this is a choice that must be made, and it is also a good thing for him, there is no need to risk his life for the hatred of the previous generation." ”

But he is crazy with one hand, and he has been a man of temperament since he was a child. And another expression of human nature is irrationality.

He knew what to do, but he just couldn't. Even if he reluctantly made a decision, he still couldn't give up in his heart, and he always felt that doing so was a betrayal of his apprentice Sun Ang.
