Chapter 36: The Scramble (Part I)
For the first time, Gu Qingquan put on the blue warlock robe that symbolized the Lingshui Pavilion. The delicate face has faded from the childishness of more than nine months of training, the resolute lines are like ancient carved paintings, and the blue eyes occasionally have a touch of fine light. is obviously a handsome scholar, but he has an uninhibited arrogance and domineering. Such two completely different temperaments were perfectly combined in Gu Qingquan's body.
Ye Bin followed behind Gu Qingquan in a black brocade robe, and the auspicious clouds made of silver threads flashed quietly on Ye Bin's neckline and cuffs, with Ye Bin's face that had not changed for thousands of years, and the cold and arrogant aristocratic temperament overflowed from his bones.
Ye Ziyi leaned on the staircase and looked at the two people walking down, her eyes curved into a beautiful crescent moon.
"Wow, is that the apprentice brought back by the Holy Envoy? how do you feel that he is also quite handsome?"
"It's still the handsome one in the back, it's just too cold. ”
"One is arrogant, the other is elegant, I like to do ......"
...
Listening to the whispers of the girls around her, the corners of Ye Ziyi's mouth raised a proud arc, the effect caused by Brother Qingquan and Xiaobin standing together was not at all smaller than Cheng Li and Ling Yuan.
"Hey, you two don't want to steal the limelight from us like this. Ling Yuan leaned against the door of the Lingshui Pavilion, looked at Gu Qingquan and Ye Bin, and immediately exclaimed like a cat with its tail stepped on.
"Let's go. Looking at the two figures, one green and one red, Gu Qingquan grinned and followed the two of them towards the circular building in the center of the Five Elements Pavilion.
Ling Yuan looked Gu Qingquan and Ye Bin up and down as he walked, "Qingquan is okay, the handsome one is not particularly obvious, and his temperament is slightly outstanding." Why is this handsome guy in black so ruthless? I hope no girl likes him, otherwise he will be frozen into ice cubes?"
Cheng Li stroked his forehead helplessly, and resisted the urge to pull the people around him out of the city to beat him. Ye Bin just raised his eyes calmly and continued to follow behind Gu Qingquan, like a faithful bodyguard. Ye Ziyi watched from the side, covering her small mouth and chuckling.
Following Cheng Li and Ling Yuan, Gu Qingquan and the others came to the door of the circular building, Gu Qingquan raised his feet and was about to enter, but was pulled by Cheng Li, and his figure turned to an inconspicuous small door.
Through the dim staircase, Gu Qingquan looked at the scene in front of him and clearly heard the sound of Ye Ziyi gasping. Covering her small mouth, Ye Ziyi looked at the night pearls and colorful crystals on the walls around her, her eyes were shining with a sparkling essence, girls were born with no immunity to these shiny things. Ye Bin is worthy of being a person who grew up in the royal family, but he just opened his mouth slightly, and immediately returned to indifference.
There is a huge square ring in the center of the square, and on the four corners of the ring stands a copper pillar with a diameter of about half a meter, and there are some mysterious patterns that Gu Qingquan can't understand on it. Directly opposite the ring was a high platform, with five sets of colorful tables and chairs, which seemed to be the seats of the five oracles. In the other three directions, there was a large arc-shaped stand, which was already full of disciples of the Five Elements Pavilion.
Cheng Li and Ling Yuan took Gu Qingquan to a relatively less crowded place and sat down, looking condescendingly at the ring below. As soon as Gu Qingquan sat down, he sensitively felt a burning gaze gather on his back, and when he turned around, he saw An Guo'er sitting among the boys, looking at him provocatively.
"Incorrigibly stupid woman. Following Gu Qingquan's gaze, Ling Yuan glanced at An Guo'er with disdain, and Gu Qingquan turned back with a faint smile.
Suddenly, a burst of colorful light flashed, and I saw that the Miao Fire Envoy, the Miao Wind Envoy, the Wood Spirit Envoy and the Earth Spirit Envoy stood on the copper pillars around the ring at some point, and Miao Shui was standing in the center of the ring, blue Yuan Force gushed out, and at the same time, the other four envoys also injected their own Yuan Force into the copper pillar at the same time.
The huge coercion came, only to hear a dull roar rising from the ground, and a series of colorful Xuan patterns appeared in the ring at the foot of Miao Shui, and in detail, it was the same as the Xuan patterns on the copper pillar, and the light flowed, and the Yuan Force in the air frantically surged towards the colorful Xuan Lines.
"This is a formation laid by the Five Spirit Kings, in order to protect the ring from damage in the fight. Cheng Li's explanation sounded at the right time, and Gu Qingquan nodded clearly.
"Condensation!" in the delicate drink of Miaoshui. The patterns flashed violently, and they burrowed into the ring as if they had never been seen before. The five spirit envoys glanced at each other, and swept towards the high platform opposite the ring in unison.
"Are you all here?" Miaoshui sat in the center, as if he was a family member. On the left is the wonderful wind makes Tianya, the earth spirit makes Qianhua, and on the right is the wood spirit makes Mu Yunxi and the wonderful fire makes An Wei.
"Or according to the usual rules, the Holy Son is on the stage to defend the ring, and the disciples of this attribute can challenge at will, and there is an interval of five minutes between each challenge, and the person standing in the ring is the Holy Son of this year, and the point is up. Miaoshui's lips opened lightly and said word by word.
"Then let's begin, the first one, Spirit Fire Pavilion. Miaoshui's clear eyes swept around the field and announced.
Ling Yuan's eyes were stunned, obviously he didn't expect that the first round of this year would be the competition for the Spirit Fire Pavilion, in the past, the Spirit Water Pavilion was the first to start, and he shrugged his shoulders indifferently, Ling Yuan yawned and walked into the ring.
Standing in the middle of the ring with his chest crossed, Ling Yuan coquettishly threw a wink at the girls in the stands, causing a burst of exclamations in the stands. But for a long time, no one stood up to challenge, Gu Qingquan glanced at Ling Yuan in surprise, what did this thing do before, there was no one to even challenge.
"Is there no one?" ......Ling Yuan waved his hand impatiently, and was about to return to his seat, when he saw a tall girl stepping into the ring.
Ling Yuan raised his eyebrows, and the gentleman stretched out his right hand and made a "please" movement. The girl was not polite, she glanced at Ling Yuan shyly, and then began to attack. Clusters of marshmallow-like red air flew towards Ling Yuan quickly, heading straight for Ling Yuan's good-looking face.
"This sister looks delicate, I didn't expect to be so ruthless. Looking at Ling Yuan, whose eyes changed slightly, Ye Ziyi said with a smile, after more than a month of getting along and observing, Ye Ziyi could see that Ling Yuan attached great importance to that face, and actually dared to slap Ling Yuan's face?
Ling Yuan didn't react much, with a wave of his right hand, a burst of red light flashed, lightly blocking the red air mass thrown by the girl. Seeing that her attack had been defused in this way, the girl's face turned red, and then, with her hands raised, a beautiful lotus flower mark was formed, and five small red short swords appeared in front of her, spinning and flying towards Ling Yuan.
"This girl's attack speed and strength are okay, but they are far worse than Ling Yuan. Cheng Li glanced at the stage boredly, then leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The fiery red flying sword arrived in Ling Yuan's chest in an instant, Ling Yuan smiled evilly, and with a push of both hands, the five small short swords froze in place. It could be seen from the girl's somewhat anxious expression that the five small swords were out of her control.
As soon as Ling Yuan grabbed the void, all the small swords fell into his hands. With a swift slap of both hands, the five small short swords completed the process of re-fusion. As soon as he pulled and closed, a red piece of work was wrapped around him into a huge heart shape. Before the girl on the other side could react, she was caught in the heart-shaped exercise.
"Wow, it's so beautiful and romantic. ”
"I knew that I would also go up to challenge. ”
The girls in the stands looked at the huge heart shape that shone with fire at that moment, and they all laughed nymphomaniac. The girl's cheeks turned even redder, and she said "I admit defeat" to Miaoshui on the high platform, and ran off the ring as if she had fled.
Gu Qingquan looked at Ling Yuan who was playing on the stage speechlessly, this guy was like playing in the ring. However, from the hand he just had, it could fully reflect his proficiency in the control of the fire element force, and if he could do it without the yuan force spilling out at all, he should have entered the realm of a magician.
Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye. The person who set this five-minute setting should have been for the sake of the Holy Son who accepted the challenge, but looking at Ling Yuan's appearance, there was no need to rest at all. There shouldn't be many people in the Spirit Fire Pavilion who can challenge Ling Yuan. As soon as Gu Qingquan thought about it, he saw a man with five big and three thick walking towards the ring.
Ling Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at it, it was still the same "please" action, but this time he didn't wait for the other party to make the first move. Before the person who challenged Ling Yuan could gain a firm foothold in the ring, he was knocked out of the ring by a pillar of fire, and the speed was jaw-dropping. The hapless challenger was like a charcoal statue, black and colorless.
"Damn, why is there such a big difference in treatment between men and women?"
"It's a good thing I didn't go up to the challenge!"
"My little girl, isn't this disfigured after being burned?"
Whispering in the stands, the corners of Gu Qingquan's mouth twitched unnaturally, and finally knew that he didn't dare to challenge him for what he did.
"Is there anyone else?" Ling Yuan glanced lazily at the stands, and for a while the stands were quiet. Ling Yuan turned his head and shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Miaoshui, then walked out of the ring and returned to his seat.
"This year's Fire Saint Son is still Ling Yuan, and the next one, Lingfeng Pavilion. ”
Listening to Miaoshui's announcement, Cheng Li stood up, crossed his hands on his chest and made a strange mark, and flew straight down from the stands, falling like a ball of catkins.
"This sulch is always so funny. Ling Yuan sat down with a grin, "You don't need to watch this scene of his, there is no one stronger than him in the Spirit Wind Pavilion yet." Gu Qingquan glanced at the violent Ling Yuan strangely, and his gaze returned to the ring. Ye Bin had been sitting quietly behind Gu Qingquan all the time, except for Gu Qingquan and Ye Ziyi, everyone else had long ignored his existence.
"Is Brother Cheng Li instructing these disciples of the Spirit Wind Pavilion?" Sure enough, the people who came up all seriously followed Cheng Li one move at a time. However, there was no challenge at all, more like Cheng Li was instructing these people. Gu Qingquan smiled helplessly, the way Cheng Li and Ling Yuan guarded was really special.
After a while, Cheng Li waved his hand and walked down from the ring.
"The Wind Saint Son will not change, the next one, Lingshui Pavilion. ”
