"Guest, don't you know my grandfather?" Seeing Lin Chen's appearance, Chen Qing couldn't help but ask.

Although grandpa is usually modest and low-key, and he has basically been indulging in carving works over the years, he is not a nobody in this Aoba City. can even be called a well-known figure.

Don't look at the scale of this Chen's wood carving shop, but there are more than one, the carver of these works is from the hands of a martial artist of the Divine Sea Realm.

However, Lin Chen is new to the world, and he is not a person in this world, so naturally he will not know so much. Therefore, when Chen Qing asked at this moment, he also answered honestly: "I don't know." ”

Seeing Lin Chen's serious nodding, Chen Qing was a little angry.

His grandfather was more than just a sculptor, an artist. is also a powerhouse of the Divine Sea Realm. In this Aoba Castle, it is also an existence that cannot be underestimated. Even if the behind-the-scenes bosses of Tianbao Pavilion and Shentong Pavilion see it, they must also call it 'Chen Ye'. The young warrior in front of him didn't even know.

"Hmph! Chen Qing whispered. didn't know that Lin Chen's ear power was extraordinary, and he listened to all her words.

"Stunned?" Lin Chen asked.

Hearing Lin Chen's question, Chen Qing was taken aback. Obviously, I didn't expect that such a small voice of my own would be heard by the other party.

However, seeing that there was no angry expression on Lin Chen's face, Chen Qing also relaxed, but his tone was also much softened, with a slight apology, "My grandfather is a famous martial artist in Aoba City, and his cultivation is not low. No one in the city knows it. Even the lord of Aoba Castle will also welcome him as a guest. Why don't you recognize the guests. ”

Hearing this, Lin Chen was happy. At the same time, I was a little speechless.

"I'm new to the city, and I've been living in small towns before. Even if the lord of Aoba Castle stood in front of me, then I wouldn't recognize it. So it's not a strange thing to know about your grandfather. Lin Chen said with a smile. That being said, but being able to carve out a war spirit villain, Lin Chen really became interested in this Chen Tong, and it would be even better if he could meet him.

Although Chen Qing was dissatisfied in his heart, when he heard that Lin Chen's words were reasonable, he couldn't find the slightest refutation. He only said: "Guest, it's not early now." If you haven't found a carving you like, please come back tomorrow!"

"Is this work really not for sale?" Lin Chen asked, pointing to the war spirit wood carving.

"Can't be sold. This is a gift from my grandfather, not a sale. Chen Qing said without hesitation.

In fact, there are many carvings that her grandfather gave her. It's not that they can't be sold. It's just this one, but it's weirdly tight. It turned out to be a villain with no face.

Chen Qing has lived with his grandfather since he was a child. A few years ago, when Grandpa started carving, she was always by her side. Under the influence of her ears and eyes all year round, although her carving is not as good as her grandfather, she is no more than ten steps away.

In the past, although she could not immediately understand the carvings given to her by her grandfather, as long as she was given time, it would not take long to understand the true meaning of the carvings and sublimate her thoughts. Even the stagnant cultivation will spontaneously complete a breakthrough as her mind improves.

That's the value of these wood carvings. A Divine Sea Realm martial artist left his own feelings in it. For juniors, there is infinite help.

It's just that few people have been able to discover the mystery. Chen Qing is the beneficiary. So she knows how valuable these wood carvings are. Selling spirit stones, those who buy them can be said to have obtained great benefits.

It's been more than half a month since her grandfather gave her this carving. She has also been enlightened for more than half a month, but this wood carving is different from other works. She didn't have a clue, and she couldn't figure out what her grandfather had poured into it.

Therefore, this wood carving is impossible to sell.

"Oh. That's it. Lin Chen nodded, and there was no difficulty for a strong man. After all, this is just a carving, and it contains a slight sense of the true meaning of the war spirit, but it has little value.

"That's right. Is your grandfather in the store tomorrow, I want to meet him. Lin Chen asked. Although he had already guessed that Chen Tong was the sojourner of the War Spirit, he still wanted to confirm it in person. However, according to what Chen Qing said, her grandfather Chen Tong was a powerhouse in the Divine Sea Realm. If you find out that there is a divine jade in his body, what should you do when you have bad intentions?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen secretly decided. If this Chen Tong is in the store tomorrow, then he will see him from afar. Hide your breath and check it out.

"The assessment of Aoba Academy will start tomorrow. Grandpa is an assessment instructor, and he won't be in the store these days. Chen Qing shook his head and said.

Chen Tong also has a certain reputation in Aoba City, and he is a powerhouse in the Divine Sea Realm, so it is normal for Aoba Academy to invite him to be a freshman assessment tutor.

Lin Chen didn't know these things. I don't even know that the freshman assessment of Aoba Academy is tomorrow. At this moment, when he heard Chen Qing mention it, he immediately asked, "This Qingye Academy's freshman assessment is tomorrow?"

"Yes. Chen Qing nodded. For Lin Chen's loneliness, it is no surprise now.

I got the answer I wanted. Lin Chen didn't stay any longer. I bought a wood carving of an eight-armed dragon and left.

Lin Chen has golden pupils, and naturally he can see the extraordinary power of these carvings, which have the aura of a strong man and a trace of perception of the realm.

But for the current Lin Chen, it has no effect. It's good to buy it back and use it as a toy. After all, this eight-armed dragon can be described as a vivid carving, just like the reappearance of a real dragon. Compared to small rice balls, you will definitely like it.

If Chen Qing knew that Lin Chen had only bought this carving as a toy for an eleven-year-old girl, she would have gone crazy.

To know. Every carving here is the painstaking effort of the carver, which not only has extraordinary significance, but also contains the atmosphere of the realm. If it is obtained by mortals, it is not an exaggeration to offer it to gods. And the martial artists of the lower realm, if they can comprehend, then they can get a qualitative leap.

And Lin Chen actually regarded this wood carving as an ordinary toy, it was really a tyrannical thing.

......

......

Early the next morning, Yan Mingfei came over. Simple and Lin Chen and the others had breakfast in the inn. led Lin Chen and a few people to the station of the Spark Mercenary Group.

The territory of Aoba City is vast, and Lin Chen had already learned a little about it in advance before he came. But when I really took a stroll, I found that this Aoba City was even wider than I imagined.

"The area occupied by this Blue Leaf City is more than ten times that of Blue Leaf City. Yesterday, we all went around for most of the circle before we found a suitable position and settled down in this Aoba Castle. Yan Mingfei said. Of course, the most important thing is that there is still the support of spirit stones.

And the source of this spirit stone is naturally Lin Chen. After copying the City Lord's Mansion. Some useless things were all taken to the auction house by Lin Chen and exchanged for spirit stones.

Except for the spirit stones he was carrying, the rest of the forest dust was given to Gu Changfeng. Everything was handed over to Gu Changfeng to take care of.

Several of the backbone members of the Spark Mercenary Group were formed by Gu Qingyan, while the rest were collected from Blue Leaf City. Most of them were attracted because of Lin Chen's competition in Blue Leaf City.

Therefore, even if Lin Chen rarely fulfilled the obligations of the regiment leader, in the hearts of the members of the mercenary group, they all respected him as a god and spiritual belief.

Their head is an existence that can fight against the powerhouses of the Divine Sea Realm. Even if the two city lords joined forces, they would be beaten away by him.

At the foot of the Dragon Bone Mountain, Lin Chen's record is in the eyes of everyone. With the power of this Kaiyuan Realm, he actually fought against the city lord, and also forced the city lord to retreat.

This record shocked everyone. It also made some people blindly worship Lin Chen. There is a big reason for joining the Spark Mercenary Group, and it is because of Lin Chen.

Yan Mingfei took a few people to the Spark Mercenary Group station.

In front of him is a large mansion. The vermilion gate is three zhang high and is magnificent. In terms of floor area, it is even more majestic than the City Lord's Mansion in Blue Leaf City.

And above the gate, a gold-edged plaque hangs high. There are five large gold letters on it.

Spark Mercenary Group!

The five big characters are scribbled, but with an indescribable taste. Hidden edge.

Lin Chen looked at these five big characters glowing with golden light. Inexplicable.

Once upon a time, did you think that you could have today? At the beginning of Liuyun Mountain, no one thought that a waste boy who couldn't cultivate could have such an achievement as he did today. Not only is he the leader of the Spark Mercenary Group, but he is also about to become a student of Aoba Academy.

Yan Mingfei pushed open the vermilion door. Three zhang high, the gate made of precious wood weighs at least 5,000 catties, but in Yan Mingfei's hands, it is like nothing, just like pushing open ordinary people's homes, without the slightest difficulty.

His realm is profound, and he is known for his fist and foot kung fu, and his strength is amazing. Lin Chen, who watched it, was amazed. Yan Mingfei's physical cultivation is profound, and there are few martial artists in the same realm who are his opponents.

In addition to Yan Mingfei, Dumb Xiong Bo and others also entered the country quickly. Lin Chen was not stingy, most of the elixirs he got in the Dragon Bone Mountain were distributed by him to the brothers of the Spark Mercenary Group to help them cultivate.

With the help of Lin Chen's elixir, many people's cultivation has made rapid progress. Even a few talented martial artists broke through one after another. In this way, the Spark Mercenary Group is equivalent to breaking through again.

Aoba Castle is the main castle of the realm. Although it is not a mercenary city like Blue Leaf City, the number of mercenary groups in it is not small. There is also a leaderboard in the city.

However, for the current Spark Mercenary Group. Every mercenary group that can be on the list is an existence that they need to look up to. For the time being, it can't be compared to those powerful mercenary groups.

After all, in those mercenary groups, the leaders were basically the powerhouses of the Divine Sea Realm. There are even strong people who have opened up the second divine sea. And the overall strength is even extraordinary, and even its head can compete with the city lord of Aoba City.

It's not the same here as Blue Leaf City. Qingye City is the main city of a realm, among which Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there are countless hidden peerless masters, and it is impossible to be the same as Blue Leaf City and Red Leaf City, so that the City Lord's Mansion is dominant.

Gu Changfeng had been waiting in it for a long time. In the Spark Mercenary Group, the relationship between Lin Chen and Gu Changfeng is very wonderful. On the one hand. Lin Chen is the leader of the Spark Mercenary Group, on the other hand, it is his father-in-law who is in the position of deputy head of the group.

Such a relationship makes Lin Chen sometimes not know what to do. However, Gu Changfeng has lived a lot of age after all, and he is very easy to deal with this kind of thing.

"Lin Chen, now our Spark Mercenary Regiment has settled down in Aoba City. Next, as long as you go to the mercenary guild to receive the task, you can open it directly. Gu Changfeng's tone was familiar, cordial, and polite. But Lin Chen sounded unusually comfortable.

"Yes. In this case, I will be able to go to Aoba Gakuin with peace of mind. Lin Chen nodded and said. It's no secret that he's going to Aoba Academy. It has already spread in the Spark Mercenary Group.

Moreover, the young martial artist in the mercenary group, Lin Chen also planned to bring it. Go to Aoba Academy today to take the test. If you can pass, the tuition and miscellaneous fees are all covered.

As soon as this cabinet decision came out, it was supported by everyone. And applaud yourself for having such a good leader. Lin Chen's reputation in the Spark Mercenary Group is unmatched.

However, Yan Mingfei, Dumb Xiong Bo and several other team leaders have passed the admission standards of Aoba Academy because of their age.

The standard for Aoba Academy to recruit students is that they are no more than twenty years old and that their strength has reached the Kaiyuan Realm.

Among the more than 100 members of the mercenary group, there are not many who meet the conditions, only a few dozen. Moreover, most of them completed the breakthrough after taking the elixir that Lin Chen brought from the Dragon Bone Mountain, and the realm was quite unstable.

This time, I took them to the test, and it is very likely that they will be eliminated. But even so, there is no reason to just give up. It's always a matter of putting it together.

"I already found out yesterday. Aoba Gakuin is holding an admissions test today. As for the location, it is on a thousand feet of green mountains outside the city. "Gu Changfeng had already made preparations, and when he was looking for the location of the mercenary group yesterday, he inquired about the enrollment time of Aoba Academy.

But what surprised him was that this inquiry didn't take much effort at all. Almost all the martial artists who live in Aoba City know about the enrollment of this Aoba Academy. Just ask, and you'll already know.

Although Gu Changfeng had already heard the name of Aoba Academy when he was in Blue Leaf City, he had never thought of it. This Aoba Academy is so famous. It is even rumored that the dean is still a strong person who has reached the Great Perfection of the Divine Sea Realm, and has already reached the top of this realm. If you take a step forward, it's a different world.

In this regard, Gu Changfeng can only look up. He thought his cultivation talent was good, but compared to these world-beating powerhouses, it was dwarfed.

After sighing, Gu Changfeng looked at his daughter, his eyes were full of relief. His daughter, one day, will be able to step on the martial arts and become a strong man.

He has strong confidence in this. After all, the cultivation talent that his daughter is showing now has far surpassed him. At the age of twenty, he had already cultivated to the strength of the late stage of the Kaiyuan Realm, which was comparable to that of the children of the great clan. For joining this Aoba Academy, it's almost a sure thing.

And Lin Chen and the others, Gu Changfeng will not have any doubts. The strength of several people is placed there.

"Big brother, we will be classmates in the future. Zhanfei smiled and looked eager to try. For Aoba Academy, he is imperative.

Lin Chen nodded, a little helpless. This Zhanfei is older than him, but instead he calls him big brother, which makes him feel unrelieved. However, in the face of Zhanfei's hearty smile, Lin Chen was left to him.

The number of people was named. Lin Chen was not ambiguous. Greeting his brothers, he went out of Aoba Castle in a mighty way. On the way, I met a lot of people, all of whom were on the same road, going to Aoba College to participate in the admissions assessment.

"Have you heard? This Aoba Academy is built on a thousand green mountains, and it won't be so easy to successfully reach the top and take the test. A warrior said. There are many complaints in the words.

Qianzhang Qingshan is not a joke, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it is not in vain. That green mountain is notoriously steep, and ordinary people can only look up. And even the martial artists of the Kaiyuan Realm are difficult to climb.

"That's right. But this is the most basic test. If you don't even have the courage to climb a thousand peaks, then you still want to enter Aoba Academy?" someone said, but he was full of confidence.

Obviously, this person is already familiar with this. In the face of this thousand green mountains, he couldn't see the slightest fear. On the contrary, I am full of confidence. I am very confident in my own strength.

Some people are confident, and naturally some people have low self-esteem. Like the dozens of members of the Spark Mercenary Group who followed behind Lin Chen, several of them had expressions of retreat on their faces.

Several of them have not broken through, and their realm has not yet been consolidated, so they have no confidence. Otherwise, how could this mere peak stump the martial artists of the Kaiyuan Realm.

"Do you want to give up like this?" Lin Chen's voice suddenly sounded. No matter what they thought in their hearts, Lin Chen felt that it was necessary for him to speak. If they are allowed to be discouraged, I am afraid that they will have given up before they have reached the foot of the green mountain.

Lin Chen's words were very calm. I want to state a fact. It's obviously a question sentence, but it's deeply imprinted in their hearts. Let those warriors who were retreating feel guilty and lowered their heads.

Did they just give up? It was they who made up their minds to follow the regimental commander in the first place. And now, thanks to the elixir brought back by the head of the regiment, they have the opportunity to be promoted and reach the realm of the Kaiyuan Realm. Otherwise, they are still working hard to find a breakthrough. Not to mention going to Aoba Academy for testing today, which was unimaginable before.
