Chapter 6: Enter the palace and show off your talents
With the first rays of dawn in the morning, Xingluo City gradually became lively.
The sunlight also shines into a small courtyard in the north of the city, and the ground of the small courtyard is paved with bluestone, and the combination of irregular bluestones has a special beauty.
In the courtyard, a couple sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, watching a little boy waving a wooden knife one by one.
It is Xu Sheng and his parents, Xu Sheng is now practicing Yunlai swordsmanship, which is not confined to swords. As long as it's one-handed, you can use it even if you have a stick.
How did you get this law? Xu Sheng all pushed it on Wu Qi's body, saying that after obtaining the first soul skill, it naturally appeared in his mind.
Xu Jie and Mo Yan'er couldn't ask why, and when they saw the subtleties of Yunlai's swordsmanship, they didn't want to do it.
Knowing that he was going to contact the king of a country, Xu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Although Xu Jiawei in the original book is very kind, the ghost knows if he is afraid of Shrek's strength.
So he practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard. Slowly, his heart calmed down, and his swinging movements became more and more fluid.
"Knock Knock"
There was a knock on the door outside, and the sound of the palm of the hand on the iron door was particularly loud.
"Xu Jie, open the door, I'm here to pick up your little genius to enter the palace." A deep voice came from outside.
Xu Jie's face turned pale, and he said softly: "It turned out to be Senior Cheng." With that, he strode forward to open the door.
Outside the door was an old man, not tall and of medium height, with short black hair and bright eyes.
Xu Jie walked forward quickly and said, "It was Cheng's seniors who came, and the juniors couldn't welcome him from afar, forgive your sins." ”
The old man patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Haha, Xu Jie, what are you polite to me." The old man watched you grow up. With your talent, you might be able to match me in the future. After speaking, he looked at Xu Sheng behind Xu Jie.
"This is your boy, isn't it? It's handsome, whatever you want. The old man heard that the Starlight Sword has produced a genius full of innate soul power, and with your relationship with Your Majesty, you will definitely be focused on cultivating. ”
Xu Jie nodded undeniably, called Xu Sheng closer, and introduced: "This is Cheng Gang's senior, titled Juli, and the Protector Douluo of our Star Luo Empire. ”
Xu Sheng thought to himself: At the Continent-wide Senior Soul Master Competition, he thought that Huo Hang was a soul beast and wanted to obtain soul bones. Then he couldn't find the north by Xuan Lao, and forced the one who slapped his mouth a hundred times.
Thinking of such disrespectful words in his heart, Xu Sheng's face was very normal. He looked at the old man in front of him with admiration and said, "Protector Douluo, does it mean the guardian of the empire?" I will also be a Protector Douluo in the future. ”
Although it sounds very whimsical, it is very reverie when it comes out of the mouth of a genius who is full of innate soul power.
Cheng Gang laughed heartily: "Haha, good boy! Be ambitious! I'm looking forward to the moment when you become a Protector Douluo. Xu Jie, it's not too early, I have to take him to see Your Majesty. ”
"Xu Sheng, right? If you don't mind, just call me Grandpa Cheng. ”
Xu Sheng's eyes lit up, and his thighs didn't hug white. said softly: "Hello Grandpa Cheng." ”
"Hey"
Cheng Gang is also very happy, he will recognize a junior with innate soul power when he comes out, and it will not be a loss.
Under the leadership of Cheng Gang, he soon came to the gate of the inner city. Even in the inner city, the walls are twenty meters high.
This is where the royal family of Xingluo lived. It has been renovated since the reign of the Dai family 10,000 years ago, and after several expansions and renovations, it finally took shape to its current appearance.
Even if Cheng Gang's identity as a Title Douluo was to be inspected, he had to be inspected by the city guards at the gate, and he finally entered the inner city after several procedures.
Suddenly enlightened, Xu Sheng was shocked by the scene in front of him, five steps to the first floor, ten steps to a pavilion, the corridor waist back, the eaves and teeth are high.
Jewelry is a curtain, white jade is a step; The carved pattern is decorated, and the bluestone is the column; The noble wood is the eaves, and the star stone is the top. The luxury and beauty of the world seem to be all here.
Cheng Gang stopped here and said, "I can only send you here, and someone will take you there for the rest of the road." ”
Xu Sheng nodded, and saw a palace attendant come over and motioned for him to follow.
After walking for a long time, I finally stopped next to a small two-story building. The palace attendant said: "This is Your Majesty's study, now Your Majesty is here, you can go in." With that, he stood aside.
Xu Sheng knocked on the door, and a gentle middle-aged male voice came from inside the door: "Come in." ”
Xu Sheng pushed the door and walked in, taking a closer look. His Majesty the Emperor, dressed in a bright yellow robe and wearing an eight-treasure purple and gold crown, looked like he was in his thirties. She was looking at him with a smile on her face.
Xu Sheng hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen Your Majesty." ”
"No need to be polite, I have often heard your name for a long time, and you child is really like a little adult, come, sit here." Xu Jiawei pointed to the stool next to him.
Xu Sheng was not hypocritical, walked straight over and sat down. But the stool was still a bit tall for him, and he jumped on it.
Xu Jiawei smiled and said, "Can you let me see your martial spirit?" Bub. ”
Hey guys, get straight to the point? But when I thought that the person in front of me was the emperor, it was estimated that the things to be dealt with every day were piled up, and things became reasonable.
"Yes." Xu Sheng said and summoned the martial spirit. A purple gem emerged from his palm, and a dark yellow soul ring appeared at his feet.
Xu Jiawei looked at the martial soul that appeared in front of him and felt the aura of the thunder element in it. There seemed to be a flash of starlight in his eyes, and he said, "Can you release a thunderbolt?" ”
Xu Sheng condensed a little thunder element according to his words, turned into purple thunder, and circled around his palm at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xu Jiawei was slightly disappointed in his heart. Isn't it the ultimate thunder? No, it's very close, what a pity!
However, his face did not show it, but continued: "Can you make this thunder more powerful?" ”
Stronger? What do you mean? Xu Sheng instantly understood something.
After obtaining Xu Jiawei's consent, the first soul ring lit up. A long knife condensed in front of itself, and Xu Sheng grasped it.
With the same energy, he summoned purple thunder again, this time the thunder purple blackened, and the aura of destruction that spread from it was terrifying.
The surprise in Xu Jiawei's heart erupted, and he couldn't help but be a little happy: "Weapon-type soul skills? Extreme thunder? Good! Good! ”
"Xiaosheng, would you like to study with Jiujiu?" Xu Jiawei went straight to the point. In front of him was a six-year-old child, who was talking complicated, and he was worried that the other party would not understand.
Xu Sheng's face was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
"I'm your father's eldest brother, what should you call me? It's dull, and there is no child's vitality at all. ”
Father's eldest brother, isn't it an uncle? That's right, an extreme thunder soul master who is full of innate soul power will not have the shortcomings of extreme attributes in his future cultivation, and it is indeed worth wooing.
Xu Sheng thought for a while, raised his little face, and said, "Uncle, I know that my talent is very good, and I will become the Protector Douluo of the empire in the future, like my ancestors." ”
"Good boy! I'm looking forward to that day. Come, you take this thing well, you can't lose it, you will use this when you come to study in the future. Go ahead, someone outside will take you to Jiujiu. Xu Jiawei said and took out a hexagonal token with a delicate small crown carved on it.
"I know, uncle, I'm leaving." Xu Sheng took the token, and after getting Xu Jiawei's permission, he pushed the door and walked out.
