The palace was still dark, only the Qingyun Pagoda exuded a faint light, Xia Yun and Bai Bai were five meters apart, and they were silent for a long time.

Xia Yun waited for a while and didn't respond, but he understood that if he didn't answer the day's questions, he would never tell him the way out during the day.

Under normal circumstances, Xia Yun would definitely work against the day, but he can't afford it now, and estimating the time, I'm afraid that the academy selection is about to start.

After thinking about it, Xia Yun had no choice but to answer the day's questions.

"Ben Shao is very talented, and only three thousand demon beasts are naturally not a problem, but unfortunately Ben Shao's three contract beasts are not around now, otherwise they can slaughter all the demon beasts in Qingyun Tower in minutes. ”

During the day, he knew that Xia Yun was bragging, but he could deal with three thousand demon beasts in less than a day with just one person, and his strength must be good, maybe he was the chosen one he was looking for.

"Boy, what's your real name?"

"Xia Yun. ”

Bai Bai was slightly surprised, and looked at Xia Yun carefully, he had heard of Xia Yun's name, could it be that the kid in front of him was the boiling Qingyun who was rumored in Qingyun City on the first day of Xia Yun?

When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name.

Although he stayed in the underground palace during the day, it was not difficult to think of inquiring about the news on the ground, but he didn't expect that the chosen one was the Xia Yun who moved the whole city.

"Xia Yun, the old man sees that you and I are destined, are you willing to worship me as a teacher, fight on the frontier with the old me, and defend the country?" asked solemnly and solemnly during the day.

"No. ”

Xia Yun refused directly without thinking about it, he has a system in hand, does he still need to apprentice?

Besides, it is not his style to fight on the frontier to defend the country or anything, and he is not an iron-blooded hero who spills his blood, let alone a hero who sacrifices his small family for everyone.

"Let's not talk about whether you have the ability to teach me, it is simply impossible for me to protect my family and defend the country, I am both selfish and powerful, and I prioritize my own interests and safety in everything. And...... I don't have enough power to take on a big responsibility, so you'd better find someone else. ”

Xia Yun said calmly, not hearing the slightest emotion. He thought that he would retreat during the day, but who expected that the latter's eyes showed a hint of appreciation.

"If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world. You chose to be alone, but you were frank enough. There's nothing wrong with this, a person who can't even take care of himself can't take care of himself, how can he take care of all living beings in the world?"

During the day, I really appreciate Xia Yun, and only those who really know how to be alone can understand what it means to help the world.

He has seen many soldiers who verbally threatened to defend their homes and the country, but in the end they were powerless in the face of reality, and he has also seen many heroic souls who sacrificed their lives for the country and died on the battlefield, but in the end they turned into a cloud of dust......

The spirit of these people deserves to be praised and promoted, but if you want to save the country, you need not only a bloody heart and a fearless spirit that dares to sacrifice, but also a discerning eye that can see through yourself and see through the fog.

During the day, I could read a trace of sadness in Xia Yun's eyes, which showed that Xia Yun knew the national situation, but he was powerless to show such emotions.

He even understood that Xia Yun was not alone, but he didn't want to help the world casually. I was powerless in my heart, but I didn't want to be burdened by powerlessness, so I disguised myself with coldness.

Xia Yun did it right, in the Xuanwu Continent, compassion for the heavens and compassion cannot save people.

If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world.

This phrase does not refer to two different types of people, but to the same type of people. No matter how poor you are, you must have the mind to help the world and the means to be good for yourself.

"The Xuanwu Continent is not peaceful, there are many wars between empires, factions within the empire compete for power, and they have to fight against the never-ending tide of beasts...... Therefore, someone has to take on this responsibility. You can escape for a while, but you can't escape for a lifetime. ”

"The reason why an empire can stand tall and prosper for a long time is because there are batches of heroes and heroes who have come forward one after another, and the current White Dragon Empire has been created, and I am waiting for the day when you are ready. ”

Xia Yun pondered for a moment and nodded: "I'm only fifteen years old this year, let's talk about the big things of the empire later." ”

He didn't talk to death, but used age to prevaricate the day.

Although this is not his country, there is still some affection, and if he is really capable of doing something for the White Dragon Empire, he doesn't mind reaching out.

Moreover, his family has something to do with the imperial military forces, and sooner or later he will go to it.

And now, he needs to go to the God of War Academy to learn the way of fighting in this world, and only if he is strong can he gain a foothold on this continent.

During the day, he got Xia Yun's reply, waved his hand, sent the Qingyun Pagoda to Xia Yun, and said with a smile: "This Qingyun Pagoda will be sent to you, since you have your own direction, the old man will not stop you, if you want to apprentice, come to me." The way out is over there, I'll take you there. ”

Xia Yun hurriedly put away the Qingyun Tower, and didn't take a closer look, for fear that he would regret it and snatch it back during the day.

After coming out, the sky is bright, and the morning sun is about to show its strength.

Xia Yun hurriedly said goodbye and hurried to Qingyuntai. After breaking free from the ban, he immediately used his spiritual connection to sense the locations of Thousand Illusions, Reverse Dragons, and Demon Idiots, and found that they happened to be near Qingyuntai, which also saved him time to find them.

"It must be a thousand illusions...... "Xia Yun muttered, and disappeared into the end of the street.

Seeing Xia Yun leaving in a hurry, he stroked his beard during the day and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and said to himself: "This kid is really an urgent kid, the old man is going there too, we can also go on the same road." ”

......

The morning sun has just risen, and it is still some time before it officially begins. Around Qingyuntai, it has long been surrounded by dense crowds.

Crowded with people, magnificent.

The people of Qingyun City got up earlier than usual, just to be able to occupy a good position and enjoy the selection of the three major academies.

This selection of the three major academies attracted all the demon spirit masters of the entire Qingyun City. Some people are ready to participate in the selection, while many more people come to watch the excitement.

The selection in previous years was not as grand as this year, and the reason was that Qingyun City had to participate in the assessment today on the first day, which was a major event in the entire Qingyun City.

Not long after, three extravagant carriages slowly drove towards Qingyuntai, the carriage was made of gold and jade, and the high-quality silk curtains were used as door curtains, which was extremely magnificent.

This was specially prepared for them by the old city lord, and every year.

The carriage passed through the crowd and came to the vicinity of Cheongundae.

A group of men and women slowly walked down from the carriage, a total of twenty-one people. They were all around twenty years old, and they must be the older generation of students in the academy.

All the men were burly, handsome, dressed in fine clothes, and looked imposing.

The remaining women are dressed in long dresses of various colors, and their appearance is extremely beautiful, like a blooming lily, giving people a sense of beauty and refinement.
