Chapter 208: Nine Deaths, One Life

In the martial arts hall, when everyone was rejoicing for the upcoming team competition, Zhao Kai was sloppy and his face was like ashes, and only occasionally when he looked at Mu Xian, his eyes would show a trace of brilliance, but that kind of look contained unforgettable hatred.

In order to make a splash in this academy assessment and rank among the top ten in the academy's combat power list, Zhao Kai and his family can be said to have made a desperate bet and paid an extremely heavy price.

Because Gangxiong is a fourth-order demon beast, it not only has strong skin and thick flesh, but also has a talent inheritance such as solidification, which makes its combat power extremely strong, comparable to the mid-level cultivation of the Earth Emperor Realm.

And in the Zhao family, only Zhao Lanze has reached the Great Perfection cultivation of the Human King Realm, and there are a few elders at the beginning of the Human King Realm, and the rest are all cultivators below the Human King Realm.

With the strength of the Zhao family itself, it was obviously impossible to take down the Gang Bear, but they spent hundreds of thousands of spirit crystals to hire several mercenary teams, and used the crowd tactics to kill the Gang Bear, which was the only way to obtain the Demon Pill of the Gang Bear.

Zhao Kai originally thought that after refining the Gangxiong Demon Pill, he would be able to rank in the top ten of the academy's combat power list, and then be noticed by the academy headquarters or some large sects and forces, and then he would be able to continue to obtain the demon pill through those sects and forces.

With the victory in hand, Zhao Kai retained his strength in both the preliminary round and the semi-finals, and did not expose the fact that he had a demonized physique, just thinking about making a splash in the finals.

It's just that Zhao Kai never dreamed that because of his wrong choice, he failed to challenge in the ranking challenge.

If it was just a failure to challenge, what made Zhao Kai almost desperate was that Mu Xian defeated him at the same time. actually seriously injured his dantian. Almost completely destroyed the demon pill he had refined. made him lose more than ninety percent of his combat power directly, so that Zhao Kai had no way to continue to challenge the top ten students on the combat power list, and wasted the other two challenge opportunities in vain.

In the case of not being able to challenge the top ten students, Zhao Kai naturally could not be promoted to the top ten of the academy's combat power list.

Unable to be promoted to the top ten of the academy's combat power list means that it is impossible to be valued by the academy headquarters, let alone favored and recruited by large sects and forces, so Mu Xian's behavior undoubtedly cut off Zhao Kai's good future.

"What, you failed in the Ranking Challenge. was also seriously injured by Mu Xian, how is this possible?" When Zhao Kai was taken back to the mansion by Hu Cong, Zhao Lanze learned about what happened in the Yanwutang, Zhao Lanze couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wasn't Mu Xian born with a dead pulse, how could he seriously hurt you, is there any misunderstanding in between?" Zhao Lanze asked incredulously.

In the face of his father's sharp questioning, Zhao Kai always remained silent.

Slowly, Zhao Lanze also discovered that something was wrong with his son.

Zhao Lanze knew that his son's heart had always been higher than the sky, and he was looking forward to soaring in the academy assessment, but the greater his hope. The greater the disappointment, the more the son suffered a heavy blow. Obviously, if he continues to blame his son, he is afraid that he will cause more harm to his son, and may even force his son to commit suicide.

It's just that it's not just Zhao Kai who puts all his hopes on the academy assessment, Zhao Lanze is the same, he even hopes that Zhao Kai will be a blockbuster in the academy assessment more than Zhao Kai himself.

After Zhao Lanze quietly withdrew from the East Courtyard, he inquired with Zhao Kai's subordinates about what happened in the academy.

When Zhao Lanze learned that Mu Xian not only won Zhao Kai, but also won nine Upper Court students and Heavenly Academy students in successive cross-level challenges before, Zhao Lanze couldn't help but be silent.

"I have lived in the shadow of Mu Yuanshan all my life, is my son going to live in the shadow of Mu Yuanshan's son for the rest of my life?"

"No, it must not happen. The academy assessment is not completely over yet, as long as I find a way to heal Kyle's injuries and let him play a little better in the team competition, Kyle may not be able to get noticed by the academy headquarters or those big forces. After Zhao Kai said this, he hurriedly walked in the direction of the family warehouse.

After the ring challenge, almost all the students were busy for the team competition, but Wu Yong, Mo Yan and Wen Bin appeared in the courtyard of Peng Dezu in the first courtyard.

"Dean Peng, you ordered the students to come here, I don't know if you have anything to tell the students. After some greetings, Wu Yong and the three of them sat down in the hall solemnly, and Mo Yan asked respectfully.

Peng Dezu's gaze stayed on the three of them for a long time, and then he nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly: "I called the three of you to come over, because I want you to know that after the research of our college, the college has decided to directly escort you to the main institute, so as to avoid the trouble of the academy team competition." ”

"What does Dean Peng mean that the three of us don't have to participate in the team competition of the academy?But what about the main courtyard, is there any difference between the main academy and the branch academy, we stayed well in the branch courtyard, why do we go to the main academy?" As soon as Peng Dezu's words fell, Mo Yan asked with a puzzled face.

Hearing Mo Yan's words, Peng Dezu was silent.

"Let me tell you, Yunyang College has a branch and a general college, but the branch and the main college are completely different, and the college has not told the truth just so as not to discourage everyone's enthusiasm. Seeing that Peng Dezu didn't speak, Liu Hongxi on the side spoke up.

"In fact, all the branches of the county town are trained for the main academy, and only when they become the students of the main academy can the students of Yunyang Academy be regarded as truly getting ahead, otherwise they can only be said to be ordinary people, and they will not be able to get ahead in their lives. Liu Hongxi glanced at Wu Yong and the others, and said with a gloomy face.

"Liu Jiaoxi, are you exaggerating a little? We have been in Yunyang Academy for nearly ten years, and we have never heard of any seniors who went to the main academy, they were either recruited by the state or some sects, and then broke through the bottleneck of cultivation one by one and became heroes, how can you say that they are ordinary people?" Wen Bin also frowned, and said puzzled.

Hearing Wen Bin's words, Liu Hongxi was also full of embarrassment, and he was speechless for a while.

"You can't blame you for not knowing about this matter, but because our Yunmen County is too backward, and the Qiantian Emperor is in a corner. It was extremely far from the center of the dynasty. Yunmen County, on the other hand, is more remote. It's almost on the periphery, so the news of Yunmen County is extremely closed, and it's normal for you to not know some things. ”

"Before you, the reason why none of those academy students were able to enter the main academy was because they were not qualified, because the minimum requirement to enter the academy was to be under the age of eighteen, to cultivate to reach the Earth Emperor realm, or to achieve the top 100 results in the final assessment organized by the academy general academy. ”

"In the hundred years since the establishment of our Lone Cloud City Branch, no one has ever been able to meet these two conditions. Therefore, the people of the Lone Cloud City Branch have never walked out of Yunmen County. Maybe in your opinion, it is a very beautiful thing for those senior brothers and sisters to be recruited by the state or large sects, but in fact, they are a group of turtles in the eyes of those students in the main courtyard. ”

“......”

Seeing that Liu Hongxin was embarrassed to tell the embarrassing situation of the college, Peng Dezu took the conversation again.

After listening to Peng Dezu's detailed explanation, Wu Yong, Mo Yan and Wen Bin couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and their hearts also suffered a huge impact, and they found that it seemed that a new world was unfolding in front of them.

"The concentration of heaven and earth aura in the main courtyard is ten times that of the branch courtyard, and the concentration of heaven and earth aura in the inner courtyard of the main courtyard is even worse. There are even superb exercises, and as for all kinds of cultivation resources, there are all kinds of cultivation resources. So almost all of them cut their heads to drill into the main courtyard. Seeing that Wu Yong, Mo Yan and Wen Bin were tempted, Liu Hongxi said demagogically on the side.

Listening to Liu Hongxi's description of the General Hospital, Wu Yong and the three of them only felt that their mouths were dry and their blood was boiling.

When the three of them returned to their dormitory in a daze, they realized that they had a lot of questions in their minds.

"Lao Peng, you really can't bear to send Xiaofu to the Gate of Blood Hell for trial, once you enter the Gate of Blood Prison, it will be the end of nine deaths. After confirming that Wu Yong and the others had left, Liu Hongxi asked Qin Xiguo with a concerned face.

"Hong Xi, you also think too highly of the disciples of the Lonely Cloud City Branch, we have been in the Lonely Cloud City Branch for nearly forty years, and we have successively sent three batches of students into the Blood Prison Gate, which batch of students is not wiped out in the Blood Prison Gate, obviously there is no return, how can we die nine lives?" Peng Dezu sighed with a wry smile.

After finishing the sentence, without waiting for Liu Hongxi to speak, Peng Dezu continued: "However, the Lonely Cloud City Branch has not sent students to the General Hospital for almost twenty years, and if it continues like this, the Lonely Cloud City Branch will be banned." ”

"Then you can't let Xiaofu's child die, Xiaofu is already terminally ill, and it is not easy to live until now, can't you let her have some good memories at the end of her life?" Before Peng Dezu's words were finished, he was interrupted excitedly by Liu Hongxi.

A look of pain flashed on Peng Dezu's face when he heard this, just when Liu Hongxi thought that Peng Dezu's thoughts were shaken in his heart, and he was about to persuade Peng Dezu to dispel the idea of letting Peng Xiaofu enter the Blood Hell Gate for trial, Peng Dezu waved his hand at him.

"Hong Xi, I have made up my mind. Although the gate of blood prison is dangerous, it is not lifeless, the military god Yin Jishan once told me that Xiaofu's life is not completely unvariable, but if she wants to change her fate, she must face the danger of nine deaths and one life, and the gate of blood prison just meets the conditions of nine deaths and one life, and the blood prison gate is not only dangerous, but also hides endless opportunities in it, but whether they can grasp these opportunities is completely up to them. Peng Dezu paused, and couldn't help but explain.

"Since you insist on doing so, I won't say anything more. I hope that with the two variables of Mu Xian and Zhao Kai, this group of students in the academy will not be wiped out. Wu Yong, Mo Yan and Wen Bin were lucky, and they directly avoided the risk of their lives and entered the main courtyard that all the students of the academy dreamed of, but it was ridiculous that they didn't know the preciousness of this opportunity. Seeing that Peng Dezu had made up his mind, Liu Hongxi didn't say much, but made fun of Wu Yong and the three of them.

"We have to leave some hope for the Lone Cloud City Branch, right? If the three of them also die at the Blood Prison Gate, then our Lone Cloud City Branch will really be banned. When he said this, Peng Dezu had an indescribable look of loneliness and helplessness on his face. (To be continued......)
