Imperial capital.

It is a deep mountain, with abundant vegetation and few people, but along the creek at the foot of the mountain, you can find a hidden gravel path by pushing aside a few old trees.

Follow the path to a high place, until the mountainside, you can see a courtyard hidden in a piece of greenery, moss steps and green tiles, eaves beasts, quite ancient.

There were no plaques in the courtyard, and a plainly dressed man walked through the gate, walked through a landscape, and stopped when he saw a pavilion and a pond.

"Young Master." This person walked from a long distance and said to the ancient pavilion, "The head of the family said, let you go to a duel in a few days." ”

“……”

Duan Feng stood in the ancient pavilion, one hand behind his back, and one hand twisting a handful of fish food. He didn't look at people, his eyes kept falling on the ripples in the pool, but his gaze was not focused, probably thinking about things.

He just casually wore a light home clothes and stepped on a pair of sneakers, so dressed and standing alone in this ancient building, it was quite out of place.

The voice of the visitor fell, and the courtyard was quiet for a moment.

I don't know how long it took for Duan Feng to seem to hear the voice of the comer, his eyes moved, and then he sighed.

"I've hid here, but I still can't escape those."

"The young master laughed."

"Help me push it, just say that I have recently realized that I need to retreat."

"Young master, the head of the family said...... This time is very important. ”

Duan Feng's face remained unchanged: "My retreat is also very important. ”

“…… The head of the family also said that if you go to participate in this duel this time, then you will not care about the young master for the next month. ”

Hearing this, Duan Feng's figure froze.

His expression seemed to have changed slightly, and when he turned his head, Duan Feng looked at the person who came, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "This is what Duan Zhang said?" ”

"It was the head of the house who said it."

Duan Feng smiled, as if he thought it was quite interesting: "It's unusual, a month ...... Tell me who to duel against. ”

"A student from the Card Maker College of Gudu University, named Yu Cang."

Duan Feng paused.

He raised his head with a somewhat surprised expression: "Is there anything special about this Yu Cang?" ”

Although Yu Cang used to be his junior brother, he hadn't even met Wu Chutai a few times, let alone Yu Cang.

He didn't even know each other.

At this moment, this name suddenly popped up, and he was indeed very dazed.

"Young Master...... Yu Cang is a genius in the ancient capital, his talent is rare in the world, he has already won the Order of the Yan Emperor at a young age, even if the family factor is put aside, presumably the young master will be willing to become a very good friend with Yu Cang. ”

"Then why fight him in a duel." Duan Feng stared at the man, who only lowered his head slightly, not looking at Duan Feng.

"Yu Cang's combat power is not bad, he likes to fight against masters, in fact, he wanted to fight with you a long time ago, but he didn't have a chance. Now...... The head of the house felt that the time was ripe. ”

"Yes."

Duan Feng retracted his gaze and gently twisted the fish food in his hand.

In the pool, a koi fish suddenly flicked its tail, swung out a series of water lines, and swam away.

At this time, Duan Feng spoke: "Duan Wang." ”

"I'm here."

"This Yu Cang, I have been in the imperial capital before."

"This ......" Duan Wang saw sweat on his forehead, and he hesitated a little, as if he was thinking about how to explain it.

"Don't think about hiding it from me, I can find out this little thing myself."

"Uh...... Yu Cang did stay in the imperial capital for a while before......"

"Huh." Duan Feng chuckled, and then, without knowing what he thought, his laughter became more and more cheerful.

"Hahahaha!"

Suddenly, he waved his hand, and the fish food in his hand swayed out, and for a while, ripples in the pond were everywhere, and koi fish floated to the surface, gathering in two or three.

Duan Feng had already turned around and walked towards the depths of the courtyard.

"What should I be, it turned out that Duan Zhang caused trouble and asked me to wipe his ass, hahahaha."

Behind him, Duan Wang buried his head deeply, he didn't even dare to wipe the sweat on his forehead, he wished that he was deaf now.

You must know that the conversations with the young master are all to be recorded and sent to the head of the family later!

There is no luck, as long as it is related to the young master, the head of the Duan Zhang family will check it personally, so today's paragraph must also be passed on to the ears of the head of the family word for word.

That yourself......

, the one who docked with the young master last time won't be transferred away because of this, right?

It's broken, and I haven't checked where he was transferred later, is it possible......

Just when Duan Wang was thinking wildly, Duan Feng's voice came suddenly:

"I know this, and I will come to pick me up that day...... Anyway, you can always find me, so you won't tell you where I'm going. ”

Duan Wang raised his head, only to find that Duan Feng had turned a corner and disappeared.

His back would have been soaked in cold sweat.

"Yes, young master......"

Duan Wang's head was a mess, and he didn't know what to do, but since the matter had come to this, it was useless to think about anything else.

Anyway, no matter what happens, you can't escape, so you should go back quickly, maybe for the sake of your good attitude, the head of the family won't care......

Duan Wang turned around and left in a hurry.

Behind him, Duan Feng was walking and chewing on the word Yu Cang in his heart.

I don't remember, I don't remember at all.

…… Hmph, over the years, I don't know how many stupid things Duan Zhang's old man has done in his own name.

Although Duan Zhang was his father, he didn't have any respect for him in his heart.

He forgot when he started, and he had been calling Duan Zhang by his first name.

"Yu Cang, Card Maker Academy." Duan Feng walked all the way along the stone road, thinking constantly in his heart.

Probably not a threatening opponent.

Being able to obtain the Order of the Emperor of Yan means that this Yu Cang has obtained enough achievements to go down in history, and in terms of combat effectiveness, it is impossible to make any achievements at his age, so it can only be a way to make cards.

And human energy is limited, since this level of achievement has been achieved in the field of card makers, then the combat skills must not be too exquisite.

Yu Cang couldn't beat himself.

Duan Feng has such self-confidence.

Against his peers, he will never lose.

But this time - he doesn't intend to win either.

The reason is very simple, he just doesn't want to go according to the arrangement that Duan Zhang arranged for him.

In fact, if Duan Zhang hadn't promised him a month's vacation, he wouldn't have had any interest in this duel.

In his opinion, even if he didn't agree, Duan Zhang would definitely be able to use other means to achieve his goal, and even find a stand-in to replace him.

He also knew in his heart that even if he deliberately lost to Yu Cang, Duan Zhang would definitely have a remedy, maybe he lost the day before, and the news that came out of the circle the next day was that he was crushed all the way, and Yu Cang was struggling.

However, whether it will be effective or not is one thing, and whether to do it or not is another thing – it's a matter of attitude.

In short, this duel, he lost. Duan Zhang couldn't stop it, he said it!

At most, a little acting.

At this time, behind Duan Feng, a figure quietly appeared.

This is an existence that only Duan Feng can see.

He said, "Feng, will you use my power this time?" ”

Duan Feng didn't turn his head, but said calmly: "No need." ”

"But Feng, we haven't fought side by side for a long time."

“…… There will be a chance. ”

……

dormitory

Gu Jieshuang carried a few bags of supper and pushed the door in.

"I'm back~"

"Huh?" Jiang Ya poked her head out of the bed, and when she saw that it was Gu Jieshuang, her expression changed visibly, "Frost? You're back from the Admissions Bureau? When was this? ”

Gu Jieshuang: "I just arrived this morning. ”

"Don't say anything, we'll pick you up at the airport!"

Gu Jieshuang laughed, and just as he was about to explain, Zhou Qingqing on the side said, "Obviously...... We have a special person to pick up the airport now, so we don't need it. ”

Jiang Ya: "......"

At this time, Nong Weiran turned his head from his seat: "Yes, the frost ...... Did that Yu Cang bully you later? ”

"What's and what's that." Gu Xie Shuangma slipped into the door and put away his things, "The boss is very good, he has never bullied me." ”

"Yes." Nong Weiran's eyes were a little suspicious, and she carefully observed Gu Jieshuang's face for a moment before she said, "Okay...... For the defrost, has Yu Cang been free lately? ”

"Boss he...... I guess I've been busy lately. ”

"Hmph, busy...... Last time, he told me that he would break through to level five recently, and I almost took it seriously, but now it seems that I'm afraid it's just bragging. ”

Gu Xie Shuang blinked, and was about to say something, but Nong Weiran didn't give her a chance to interject.

"Forget it, it couldn't have happened, and it's my fault that I would take it seriously...... It just so happens that I recently got some good soul cards from the Card Maker Academy, defrosting, and tell me when I'm free in a few days, I'm going to continue to challenge! Nong Weiran clenched his fists.

"Forehead......" Gu Xie Shuang was a little embarrassed, "That, Xiao Ran...... The boss is actually ......."

"Defrost, just watch, I will definitely win this time!"

"No, boss, he was already level five a few days ago."

"You don't have to worry, I will be merciful when the time comes, and I promise not to break your Xiaolangjun...... What? ”

"I said, the boss is already level five!"

Nong Weiran: "......"

Zhou Qingqing: "......"

Jiang Ya: "......? ”

Gu Xie Shuang shook his head helplessly and continued: "Moreover, the boss just defeated Senior Sister Yan He of the Battle Club today, passed all the assessment contents, and joined the Battle Club...... It is the battle club of the big three. ”

“……”*3。

Silent.

The three of them didn't know what to say for a moment.

In the middle of the sound, Nong Weiran put away the burning battle intent in his eyes and said, "Are you serious?" ”

Gu Jieshuang nodded: "Of course it's serious." ”

Nong Weiran patted his head.

Frog fun!

Aren't you very busy? How did you manage to break through level 5 so quickly!

If he's not mistaken, your breakthrough to level four was a few days ago, right?

How can you jump so fast!

And as soon as he advanced, he defeated the senior sister of the junior battle club?

That's a whole level crossing...... For their soul card masters at this stage, the difference in strength brought about by a year is terrifying, and both the completion of the deck and the combat experience will be completely crushed.

The corners of Nong's mouth twitched.

She was so unwilling.

But...... Although she was unwilling, she also knew in her heart that if she wanted to challenge Yu Cang, it was probably impossible.

I don't know what Yu Cang eats to cultivate, and his advanced speed is so fast...... She herself is still far from the fifth level, and the gap between her and Yu Cang will only get bigger and bigger, and I am afraid that she will never find an opportunity to defeat Yu Cang again.

Nong Weiran sighed helplessly.

Never mind...... If you can't win, you can't win.

Thinking of this, Nong Weiran looked at Gu Jieshuang and said, "Jieshuang, then I want to challenge you!" ”

Gu Jieshuang pointed at himself: "Me? ”

"That's right!" Nong Weiran rekindled his fighting spirit.

Of her peers, there are only two of them she has never won.

Yu Cang and Gu defrosted!

Now, her card deck has been updated in a big wave, and she can't help Yu Cang when she breaks through to level five, but Gu Jieshuang can still try it.

She's definitely going to win this time!

"That...... Small dyeing. Gu Xie Shuang touched his nose, his expression seemed a little embarrassed, "I didn't tell you something, I was on the way back just now...... I've also broken through level five. ”

“……”*3

There was another eerie silence.

Nong Weiran's movements were stiff like a stone statue.

In the middle of the sound, she turned around at an even speed and silently returned to her seat.

Zhou Qingqing stretched out his hand: "Xiao Ran...... Are you really okay? ”

"Eh, don't think about it so much." Gu Xie Shuang put the plastic bag in his hand on the table, "I bought a supper!" Xiao Dye, do you want to eat or not? ”

“…… Eat! Nong Weiran turned around indignantly, "I want to eat you!" ”

Gu Xie Shuang untied the bag, and suddenly, the aroma of fried skewers filled the entire dormitory.

"Frosty, you are so sinful. Do you know that beautiful girls can't eat this kind of thing at night! Zhou Qingqing brought a tube of paper cups from the side and divided them one by one, "Coke pour me a glass, thank you." ”

"Okay~ Pick it up."

Over there, Nong Weiran has already turned into a dry rice warrior, holding skewers in both hands, opening bows left and right, and turning grief and anger into appetite.

Forget it, if you can't beat it, you can't beat it, what are you afraid of!

Among her peers, she couldn't beat the dog man and woman, and now they have both reached level five...... She unilaterally announced that these two are no longer the same age!

So, rounding it off, she is already invincible among her contemporaries!

It's worth having fun and eating!

"I'll do it too." Jiang Yama slipped out of bed and joined the battlefield.

……

Gu Xie Shuang looked at the three people in front of him with a smile on his face.

Well...... Breaking through level five so quickly, even she didn't expect it.

Originally, I was going to hurry back to the dormitory to practice hard, but I didn't expect that after saying goodbye to the boss and just walking on the road, I broke through directly.

It's good, now, I'm on the same level as my boss again!

When you've perfected your deck, you'll go to the boss to learn from it!

Because she was very happy to break through, she took a detour to the night market at the gate of Gudu University and bought some supper and came back.

Well, of course, I guessed that Nong Weiran would be hit, so I prepared something to comfort people in advance!

……

Card Maker.

Yu Cang looked at the soul card in his hand, and his brows raised slightly.

He just planted a few entries at random...... I didn't expect to get this.

In his hand, he is still a gray and white half-dragon man. However, the effect of [Falling Scales] has changed slightly.

[Falling Scales]: After taking the attack and dying, leave three combined dragon scales in place. ……

Yu Cang glanced at this ability to "combine dragon scales".

[Combined Dragon Scales]: When there is a certain amount of combined dragon scales and corresponding materials on the field, send them to death cooldown to summon the corresponding fusion summoning beast.

Fusion without the need for fusion cards!
