Chapter 196: Return, the incomprehensible Gu Chen
"Third Elder, why are you here?" Gu Chen dusted off the water stains around his body and asked, he also had a good impression of this straightforward Third Elder.
"Are you embarrassed to ask, if it weren't for you, I would have been guarding here like a stone every day? The Third Elder glanced at him angrily, and then chattered and complained, telling him everything that had happened after he entered the forest at the bottom of the lake.
"Uh...... Hey...... That's really hard work for you old man. Gu Chen smiled, when he heard that this big man who was second to none in the academy was actually staying here for himself, he felt more grateful to him in his heart, and when he heard that Qiandu and Fat Feng even did not hesitate to confront the second elder for their own sake, he also had a warm current in his heart.
"By the way, the Third Elder, where are Twilight and Fat Wind, are they still outside?" he asked hurriedly.
"Oh, look at my head, I almost forgot about it. ”
When asked by Gu Chen, the third elder was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead, and hurriedly said: "You kid hurry up, this year's spirit beast competition is about to start, the two of them originally wanted to give up this year's competition, but they were directly rejected by the second brother." Okay, we'll talk about the rest later, you better rush over first, it's too late to buy time. ”
"Uh, the Spirit Beast Tournament is about to start? So...... Then I'll go first. As soon as he heard that he was going to miss this competition, Gu Chen's mind couldn't help but feel foggy, hovering between life and death for so many days, but in order to be able to participate in the spirit beast competition.
Immediately, after he hurriedly said goodbye to the three elders, he quickly rushed towards the exit of the forbidden land.
"It's really strange that this little guy can't even see through it now. ”
Looking at the figure that disappeared into the mountains and forests in a blink of an eye, the three elders couldn't help muttering, seeing Gu Chen again, the extremely restrained aura on his body shocked even him.
"Boy, the old man is looking forward to your next table more and more. ”
With a light sigh, the three elders gradually disappeared into the dense forest.
......
On the tree-lined path of Dicang Academy, at this moment, a figure was speeding away in one direction, dragging a long series of afterimages behind him.
"Hey, this year's Spirit Beast Tournament starts today, I heard that the elites of each hall have been selected to participate, I am really envious. ”
"Hey, envy has a fart, who told us that our strength is insufficient, and if we go, we will die in vain, I heard the seniors say that the mortality rate of the spirit beast competition is extremely high, and even some geniuses have fallen in the competition. ”
"Hehe, dead people are definitely inevitable, but it also depends on who it is, like the few bulls below the third grade this year, they all have extremely strong strength, maybe they will all be cultivated by the back elders of the most college. ”
At this moment, the disciples were sitting around the pool in the center of the academy and talking, and every year's Spirit Beast Tournament would always become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner for these unsuccessful disciples.
"Look, Shen Fusheng of the Heavenly Palace, the Manshan of the Regretful Earth Palace, and Bai Linlin, the freshman of the Covering Sea Palace, they are all popular figures in this year's Spirit Beast Competition, but it seems that Bai Linlin and Shen Fusheng are very incompatible, I guess I have seen it this time. ”
In the middle of the crowd, a disciple in a yellow outfit was spitting freely, and there were already many people gathered around him at this time.
"Otherwise, you seem to have missed someone, but that guy didn't even have a temper when Shen Fusheng was beaten by him. The person next to him hurriedly added.
"Hey, you're talking about the ancient city of the Miscellaneous Academy," the yellow-clothed disciple glanced at him, and immediately lowered his voice, "What do you know, tell you clearly, I have received a grapevine that Gu Chen was specially approved to go to the forbidden land of the academy to cultivate earlier, and he has not come out until now, and it is estimated that he has died in the forbidden land a long time ago." ”
"Huh? And that kind of thing?"
The surrounding crowd suddenly burst into regrets, once upon a time, Gu Chen fought alone in the Heavenly Palace, and the deeds of picking out Shen Fusheng, the first person in this year's Heavenly Palace, have become a favorite thing among the disciples, but now they heard such a result, and their hearts could not help but sigh.
"Alas, since even that Gu Chen is dead, it is estimated that the first place in this session is from the Optimus Palace. ”
"Yes, although Manshan and that Bai Linlin are not mediocre people, but compared to the foundation of the Heavenly Palace, they are a cut behind after all. ”
The sound of discussion floated over the crowd, but all the disciples here didn't notice that just as they spoke, an extremely fast figure was quickly flashing towards them.
"That, hello senior brothers, may I ask where the Spirit Beast Tournament is held!"
The young man who suddenly appeared here immediately attracted all the attention, and the yellow-clothed disciple who had been sitting in the center was also slightly stunned when he saw the visitor, and then pointed in a direction with a little confusion, and said, "In...... The ...... of the Optimus Temple on the square. ”
"Hah...... Thank you, brother. ”
He arched his hand towards the yellow-clothed disciple, and in an instant, in the shocked gaze of everyone, the stained person disappeared again in an instant, leaving a group of stunned disciples dizzy.
"I'm cāo, Gu Chen......"
Suddenly, the yellow-clothed disciple stood up abruptly and looked at the place where the figure had disappeared, his eyes full of disbelief.
"What? He's Gu Chen?"
"Nonsense, I have to lie to you?"
"He's not dead yet? I'll go, there's something to see now. ”
As he spoke, the disciples sitting around him all jumped up one after another as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and hurried towards the direction of the Heavenly Palace.
"Hurry up, hurry up, it's too late to go, but there's no good place. ”
......
At the same time, on the square in front of the palace of the Heavenly Palace.
In this huge square that can accommodate 10,000 people, a slightly luxurious rostrum stands tall in front of the square, and five old men in different costumes sit separately, and sitting in the middle is the five elders in gilded red robes and in good spirits.
Under the rostrum, four different teams were neatly arranged at this time, each with different costumes, from white on the left, to yellow and blue in the middle, and then to the gray cloth linen disciple with only two people on the very edge. The disciples who can stand here are all elite disciples who have been carefully selected by various academies, and they have only one purpose for standing here, that is, to win the first place in this Spirit Beast Competition, to win glory for their respective academies, and to fight unremittingly for their own bright future.
On the huge square, the breeze is gentle, and the warm sun shines on everyone's body, and the endless warmth ripples around everyone. At this time, the five old men on the rostrum were whispering something softly, while the four teams in the square were already tense, and the sound of disharmony could be heard almost everywhere.
