There are only two demon beasts in Qingcheng Mountain, and in fact, there are only these two demon beasts left in the entire Otherworldly Continent.

As mentioned earlier, there is also fate between demon beasts. Xu Huaijin and Dudu, although one is a unicorn and the other is a black panther, it does not prevent them from forming a deep friendship.

Friendship is friendship, and habits are habits. Due to their different personalities, except for intercepting the warriors returning from the mountain, the two demon beasts will go together, and in most cases, they will act separately.

Xu Huaijin is particularly interested in Pang Wushuang, who practices swords, and works as a "sparring partner" rain or shine; when he has nothing to do, he likes to go to the Soul Academy to be a supernumerary "auditor", especially to listen to the class of the Hui camel in literature and history.

Hui Camel, one of the members of the Soul Elder Church, the chief teacher of literature and history of the Soul Domain Academy, and a ninth-level martial artist.

Today there happened to be a class of Hui camels, and I still came uninvited.

The Soul Domain Academy is built in the middle of the mountain in front of Qingcheng Mountain, and the courtyard gate built next to the mountain is tall and majestic.

Entering the courtyard gate, the blue bricks are paved with ancient trees. In front of you, you can see a majestic hall with yellow tiles and red walls built of stone and wood, which is the most eye-catching building in the entire academy.

The main hall is located on the platform of the white marble carved cloud head stone pillar railing, the yellow glazed tube tile hilltop of the hall, the face is wide and seven, the depth of five rooms, seven steps on the three warped character buckets, the Soviet-style color painting, surrounded by the yellow, green, red glazed brick flower wall, the huge plaque hangs on one side of the bright room, and there are three big characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing in the "astrology hall".

On the left side of the astrology hall is a five-storey library building, and on the right side is a sand table combat auditorium that can accommodate hundreds of students at the same time.

There is an ancient well on the west side directly in front of the main hall, and a pond on the east side with several water lilies. Before the flowering season, only a few emerald green water lily leaves float leisurely on the water's surface, and a few koi fish swim leisurely in the clear water, occasionally bumping into the water lily leaves, causing a ripple.

On one side of the pond are two leafy thousand-year-old ginkgo trees, whose stems are so thick that it takes several people to close them.

Standing under the ginkgo tree, looking up, you can see the eaves beast in the corner of a magnificent building not far away, which is the hall of the soul tribe.

Behind the astrological hall is a picturesque bamboo forest, hidden by several bluestone-paved paths, which lead the bamboo forest up and down until it disappears into the dense grass on the mountainside.

In the bamboo forest, there are more than a dozen red brick and brown tile lecture halls scattered among them, like Wanbao snails dotted on the surface of the green waves.

The outermost teaching house is the Literature and History Lecture Hall.

The Hui teaching has not yet arrived, and the students in class have already taken their seats. Hui Jiaoxi's class is like telling a story, and many young martial artists in the soul town like to listen to his lectures very much, and even the sea of stars that is very playful can be dignified.

In the lecture hall, Xingchen Dahai was sitting cross-legged on the last mat. Glimpsing the swaggering in through the back door, Xingchen Dahai consciously moved to the side, vacated a small area, and lay down leisurely next to him.

The sea of stars, who hid at the city gate and disguised as a small soldier, was caught by the deputy leader Durian. He couldn't escape the scroll-making class that gave him the most headache, and he also received three months of drudgery to guard the city gates.

At this point, he had no choice but to admit punishment. I remember the subsequent literature and history class, and ran back to the sea of stars in Qingcheng Mountain on foot, nearly two hours later than durian. Because before he returned to the headquarters of the town soul, he also made a special trip to the bazaar in the city to buy his favorite osmanthus glutinous rice cake.

After lying down next to the sea of stars, his pure green eyes stared at the boy for a moment, as if to say: "Xingxing, hurry up and take out the osmanthus cake, I can smell the fragrance!"

The time for class has arrived, but I don't know why, Huijiaoxi, who has never been late, has not yet come, and Xingchen, who can't resist the daze-longing eyes, took out the osmanthus cake wrapped in coarse paper in his arms, put it in front of Datu, and said softly: "Eat! But if the gentleman comes, I will take it back! Eating in class is disrespectful to the teacher!"

It doesn't matter what "respect" or "disrespect", the favorite osmanthus cake is in front of you, who dares to grab it is "leopard mouth", even if it is a tenth-level martial artist, it dares to step forward and take a bite.

What's more, the stars and the sea are too worried, and eating osmanthus cake in a daze is not like a human being.

I saw that its two front paws pressed the white and soft glutinous osmanthus cake, opened its mouth and bit one of the corners, pulled it hard, swallowed it, and then bit the other corner, and pulled it again...... The palm-sized osmanthus cake was wiped out by it after three times and five divided by two.

After eating the osmanthus cake, the dumb didn't bother to lick the osmanthus sugar powder on his paws, but stared at the sea of stars expectantly, knowing that the boy still had a piece of osmanthus cake in his arms.

"It's gone?!'s gone?!" Xingchen opened his mouth wide, this is too fast, he used to bring back a piece of osmanthus cake to Dumb every time he went down the mountain, but Dumb always ran away with it in his mouth, and never ate it in front of him. He was a little painful: "This osmanthus cake cost me a lot of ingots......"

I don't understand what "ingots" are, it's just a little impatient, why don't you take out the osmanthus cake in your arms.

"Okay! I've convinced you, I'll give you this piece too, anyway, I bought it for you, I originally wanted to taste a piece of it......" Xingchen Dahai was a little helpless, so he had to take out the remaining osmanthus cake in his arms and put it in front of him.

"Cut, less pretending! Are you buying osmanthus cake for Dudu, not to see the red-eyed girl!" came a sarcastic sneer from the front.

It was a seventh-level martial artist who spoke with wine, and the stars and the sea were small.

"I just bought it for the sake of being stupid, not to see some red-eyed girl!" Xingchen Dahai argued with a red face, he was most afraid of being labeled "Sichun" at his age.

"Tut-tut, you still say no! My face is red!" "Tijiu Yanhuan and Xingchen Dahai have been friends since childhood, and they have a good relationship, and they are obviously more slippery than Xingchen Dahai, and they spare no effort to squeeze their hair small.

"No, if I say no, it's not!"

"Well, no, no, I didn't buy it for the stupe, I know!"

"Well, no...... I said I wasn't going to see some red-eyed girl!" the stars straightened their necks.

"I know, I know, you know, you say what it is!" "Seeing that his friend was in a hurry, he didn't dare to continue joking when he mentioned wine, he understood the personality of Xingchen and the sea, although he was docile and smooth, but he was really going to be in a hurry, but he would really turn his face, and the boat of friendship would turn over!

What's more, they all know that there is nothing good going on in a love affair between different races. In another worldly continent, it is an iron law that intermarriage between different races is not allowed. Thinking of this, Ti Jiu Yanhuan couldn't help but worry a little about whether his friend really fell in love with the red-eyed girl, if Xingchen Dahai really had a heart for others, then only a glass of bitter wine was waiting for him.

"Ahem, I said Xingxing, that red-eyed girl is very beautiful, but we can't like her, you understand......" Tijiu Yanhuan peeked at his friend's expression, trying to get a glimpse of the other party's thoughts.

Xingchen Dahai's face returned to normal, he understood Tijiu Yanhuan's worries, thinking of the sweet-looking red-eyed girl, the corner of Xingchen Dahai's mouth flashed a smile, and then said to his friend: "Don't worry, I won't be so confused! Ah Ben is two years older than us, I just treat her as a sister." She is a red-eyed person who lives alone in Chengdu, and has encountered discrimination and white eyes to some extent. But you see that she never complains, and treats everyone around her very gently and compassionately, isn't such a sister worthy of our respect? What's more, the osmanthus cake she makes is really delicious...... Ouch, I've eaten it all again, my three hundred ingots, I'll eat it in two bites!"

While the two were talking, they ate the second osmanthus cake early. Knowing that there was no third piece of osmanthus cake, he was already squatting on the mat, licking his front paws and washing his face leisurely.

"Her name is Ah Ben?" Seeing his friend's natural expression, he finally put his mind at ease.

"Well, that's what I heard the vendors around me call her. ”

"The last time you bought osmanthus cake, I looked at it from a distance, and she seemed to have kung fu!"

"Yes, I chatted with Sister Ben about a few family things. She practiced martial arts when she was a child, but due to the war, her family died, leaving her alone and displaced, missing the best period of martial arts, and now she is only a second-level martial artist, and if she fails to advance to the third level, she can't join the tribe to concentrate on martial arts. ”

"Oh, it's a pity!" Ti Jiu Yanhuan fell silent, the wars in the otherworldly continent are still frequent, and the joys and sorrows of the world are staged every day, he is not very old, and he has grown up in a relatively comfortable and stable soul tribe since he was a child, and he does not feel these pains deeply, just thinking of a weak woman, she has already tasted all kinds of desolation in the world but can still survive so tenaciously and optimistically, and she is naturally embarrassed.

The lecture hall suddenly quieted down, and Yan Huan thought that Hui Jiaoxi was coming, so he hurriedly turned around and sat upright, and looked up to see that it was not Hui Jiaoxi standing above the lecture hall, but a young man with a lofty spirit.

He stretched his waist, freed his ankles from under his hips, straightened them forward, and turned back to Xingchen Dahai disapprovingly and said, "It's this guy again!

The young man in the navy blue robe is called the Seven Flails Society, he is a senior student of the Soul Domain Academy, he has outstanding talents, he entered the academy a few years earlier than the stars and the sea, but he is already an eighth-level martial artist.

Crafting combat equipment requires special materials, which are sold in the city's equipment stock stores, but are scarce and expensive. In order to train the younger generation, the Soul Suppression Tribe encouraged the students of the Soul Domain Academy to go to the Refining Mountain to collect by themselves.

On the otherworldly continent, there is a mysterious Refining Mountain in every county, as long as it is a third-level martial artist, it can enter, and the threshold is not high. However, Lilian Mountain has multiple levels, and the advanced levels can only be entered by martial artists of the corresponding level. Some special materials are only dropped in advanced levels, and when there is a demand, there will naturally be a sale.

Some of the senior students of the Soul Domain Academy would sell the surplus materials collected from the Lilian Mountain to the junior students at a slightly lower market price in exchange for the circulating currency of the Otherworldly Continent, the ingot. With ingots, you can create more advanced equipment and buy high-quality horses to improve your overall combat power.

Existence is reasonable, and the Soul Suppression Tribe turns a blind eye to this, although it is not greatly encouraged, but it is also not clearly prohibited. After all, if all the equipment expenses of the students in the Soul Domain Academy were borne by the tribe, it would indeed be too heavy.

Poor literature and rich martial arts are also a very real problem in the otherworldly continent. Martial artists, strength and level are boiled out, one relies on unremitting practice and accumulation, is the so-called kung fu does not leave the hand; the other relies on nutrition and equipment, martial arts practice is physical work, equipment is a money-burning thing, lack of sufficient financial support, no one can go far on the road of martial arts.

There are three kinds of disciples that are not accepted by the folk martial arts teachers in the other world, which are the "three non-teachings" as the saying goes: 1. Do not teach if you have bad conduct, 2. Do not teach if you are brave and ruthless, and 3. Do not teach if you are not talented enough. The first two "not taught" are generally not ambiguous, and the last "lack of talent" is actually an implicit statement.

Many people think that talent only refers to a person's innate potential to practice martial arts, but they misunderstand. In fact, poor physical fitness and poor family background are "lack of talent". But martial artists all know that poor congenital physique can be compensated for to some extent by acquired efforts, and there is really no good way to be poor. Therefore, the "lack of talent and not teaching" in the "three non-teaching" mainly refers to "not teaching without money".

Poverty has ruined the dreams of many children of poor families to become high-level martial artists.

Tijiu Yanhuan knows this, but the Red Seven Flails Society has made a lot of ingots through this, so he has always been obsessed. Xingchen Dahai was very indifferent: "These materials will only drop at advanced levels, and we can't get in, it's not easy for seniors to collect these, and it should be worth collecting some hard money!" His eyelids were lowered, and he still maintained the standard sitting posture above the school: sitting with his hips pressed on his ankles, his upper body straight, and his hands on his knees.

Tijiu Yanhuan knew that Xingchen Dahai was right, but he still pouted: "When the materials I collected are surplus, I will also sell them to the younger students at a high price! I will charge them an extra 300 ingots, no, an extra 500 ingots!"

"It's dark enough!" Ximenqing, who was not far away, heard their chat, and interjected: "But, I like it! Don't forget to count me in when the time comes! Ingots are too difficult to save, you have to spend ingots on everything! You have to think of some ways to earn more ingots......

"Go aside! Your Ximen family is a tyrant in Wuwei County, and the wealth is rivaled by the country! Don't cry poor with us, don't talk to us, ...... the poor," he said, and ruthlessly exposed Ximenqing's little trick of crying poor.

"Nonsense! How did you hear this gossip? Although our family is not poor, we are not rich, and where can we be rich to rival the country! What's more, even if our Ximen family is a big wang clan in the Xiliang area, it has nothing to do with me, and the family's money is not our family's money, let alone mine! I am very poor......" Ximen Qing shrugged his shoulders and looked very innocent.

"Cut!" he raised his head with a smile on wine, not ready to continue arguing with the rich second generation who pretended to be poor on this topic.

Ximenqing didn't care about the attitude of mentioning wine and words, and patted a boy with a cold temperament sitting in front of him: "Gong Rui, do you want to join?"

The four of them are the same period of soul realm students, and they are usually better, and they often exchange martial arts together.

Gong Rui, speaking like his name, cold and concise: "Cheeky!"

Ximen Qing has long been accustomed to the way this fellow disciple speaks, and he is not angry, but just asks, "Do you want to count you as a share?"

"Shameless!" two words popped out of Gong Rui's mouth.

"You just say that you don't want to join! If you don't join, we'll find someone else!" Ximenqing finally got impatient.

"Join!"

Ximenqing had a clear expression: "Isn't this over!", he turned his head proudly at the sea of stars and the wine Yanhuan, and said silently: "Look, I pulled another ......"

Gong Rui's personality, the stars and the sea they also know very well, how complex the question will always be answered by a few words, but the person is not ambiguous at all, and the strength is also the best among the peers, with him joining in to collect materials, the efficiency will be greatly improved.

As a few people were talking, the Toll Seven Flails Society had already walked in front of them.

"These lovely juniors, each with 3,200 ingots!"

Xingchen Dahai silently took out a money bag from his pocket, counted out 3,200 ingots from it and handed it to the Seven Flails Society, and reported his name.

"Okay! Xingchen Dahai ......" The eyes of the Seven Flails Society, who took the 3,200 ingots, lit up with a few counts, and then found the name of "Xingchen Dahai" on a long list in his hand, ticked it, and set his eyes on several other people.

He was extremely reluctant to mention wine, and it was helpless to accept the peddling of his seniors. These special materials sold to them by the Seven Flail Society are indeed sold in the equipment material stores in the city, but the price is 3,500 ingots. And going down the mountain to buy it, it takes time and effort to go back and forth.

He struggled for a long time, and also handed over his share of 3,200 ingots.

Ximenqing took out a purse purse, and also counted out 3,200 ingots and handed it to the Seven Flails Society.

The Seven Flails Society put away the ingots with satisfaction, and finally looked at Gong Rui with a cool face.

"This junior, your 3200 ingots ......"

Bow Rui did not move.

“...... 3200 ingots!"

"Nope. Two words popped out between Gong Rui's teeth.

The smile on the face of the Seven Flails Society suddenly froze: Just kidding! There are no ingots? The materials have already been used by these boys on credit, and now they tell Lao Tzu that there are no ingots?!

"Impossible!" Before the Seven Flails Society could get angry, Gong Rui squeezed out a few more words.

The face of the Seven Flails Society softened slightly: "Ha...... Okay, take it, 3200 ingots!"

"No. Gong Rui is another two words.

The good-looking eyebrows of the Seven Flails Society stood up.

"Can it work?" said Gong Rui next.

"Damn, you're kidding me?"

Xingchen Dahai saw that the situation was not good, and he was busy rounding: "Senior, Gong Rui usually speaks like this, he is not playing with you, he, he is different from others......

"Broken sentence?" The Seven Flails Society thought for a while, understood the meaning of the stars and the sea, and thought that he was seeking money, and there was no need to be unhappy with the juniors, and the days of cooperation would be long in the future. What's more, the rules of the academy are extremely strict, and once there is a private fight, not only will they be expelled from the academy, but they will also be deprived of the soul nameplate of the tribe in serious cases.

"Okay, less nonsense, 3200 ingots!" he didn't bother to bother with the details.

This time, Gong Rui didn't say anything, just thought about it sideways, and seemed to have forgotten where to put the ingots, and after a while, he took out a small embroidered purse from his waist, counted out 3,200 ingots from the purse and handed it to the Seven Flails Society.

Seeing that Gong Rui, who was full of cool faces, actually used a small purse that only a woman uses, the Seven Flails Society almost laughed out loud, taking into account the other party's face, and finally held back. Since you have received the ingots, no matter who you are, you are your potential customers, and there is no need to offend them indiscriminately.

After putting away the ingots, the Seven Flails Society walked quickly to the two juniors sitting on the other side, this is a pair of inseparable good buddies: King Beiliang and Boring Renyi, both of them are seventh-level martial artists, and they also pre-credit the materials of the Seven Flails Society.

Compared with the wine and words, the king of Beiliang and the boring benevolence seemed much more well-behaved, and without waiting for the Seven Flail Society to speak, he prepared two copies of 3,200 ingots, which made the Seven Flail Society smile.

"Cut, these two sycophants!" mentioning the wine and Yanhuan looked unpleasant again, Xingchen Dahai hurriedly pulled his friend's robe and reprimanded: "Don't always say nothing, Xiaobei and Renyi are honest children, don't bully them!"

I don't know if I heard their conversation, King Beiliang turned around and smiled brightly at the wine, revealing a mouthful of white and neat teeth.

Tijiu suddenly felt a little cold in his back, and he turned around and asked, "Xingxing, what do you say Xiaobei is smiling at me? Hearing me scolding him......, he still laughs at me?

Xingchen Dahai was a little speechless, too lazy to answer his friend's mentally retarded question, in his eyes, the younger King of Beiliang and the boring Renyi are honest children, how can there be any crooked thoughts, it is a thief who is a thief when he talks about wine.

But Tijiu was still a little suspicious, and I saw that King Beiliang whispered a whisper in the ear of the bored Renyi, and after Renyi, who was more handsome, answered, he also turned his head and smiled at the wine.

"Hold the grass, it's too scary, these two buddies ......" The instinct of mentioning wine is right, if he can listen to the conversation between King Beiliang and Renyi, it is estimated that he will never offend these two boys at will.

"I said that tonight, when the wine is served, dig a hole in the door of his latrine, what do you think?"

Renyi obviously disagreed, "What's the use of digging a hole, you should make some hands and feet on the tissue paper he uses, it just so happens that I still have some itchy powder......"

Thinking of the happiness of the whole person, the two laughed quite happily and began to lie on the table to write and sketch, wanting to make the plan more thorough and detailed.

On the other side, the Seven Flail Society collected the arrears of the juniors and was preparing to evacuate.

There was a whistle outside the window, and the Seven Flails Society hurriedly put the ingots in their hands into the purse when they heard it, and then stuffed the purse and the list into their arms indiscriminately, and the Seven Flails Society, who wanted to slip away from the back door of the lecture hall, did not see the stunned lying next to the sea of stars, and was tripped by the front leg stretched out in a hurry, and turned around and glared angrily, but it was a pair of innocent green eyes.

"Well, it's stupid...... Excuse me, did the kick hurt?" apologized casually, and hurried to the back door. Lao Xu and Dud, the two demon beasts, can't afford to offend, otherwise they will be entangled like appendage bones for several days.

As soon as he walked to the back door, he saw a man in a plain brocade robe slowly pacing in from outside the door.

There are two points of ruffianism, three parts of evil, four points of righteousness, and one point of transparency hidden in the eyes, which is the camel of literature and history teaching and learning.

"Why are you so sneaky to earn money with your labor?" Hui Camel smiled and looked at the Seven Flails Society in front of him, who looked a little flustered in front of him, the Seven Flails Society, who had been promoted to the ranks of eighth-level martial artists at a young age, was a genius student he loved very much. But like other young students, the Seven Flail Society also grew up in the era of peace, did not experience the baptism of war, and always behaved without a trace of immaturity.

"Yes, sir...... I, no, I ......" The Seven Flails stammered.

"What's and isn't, go in, find a mat and sit down, and you can listen to today's class!"

"Ah, I still have something to do......"

The smile on the face of the Hui camel did not fade for half a minute, but the Seven Flail Society felt a chill on his upper body, and he immediately saw the wind and turned the rudder: "Yes, the student will find a place to sit down." By the way, the pride is still outside, do you want to ......?"

Before the words fell, I saw a delicate-looking boy with a bitter face, following behind the Hui camel, it was his friend who was helping him to let off steam.

When the Seven Flails Society saw it, their hearts suddenly balanced: I said that why did the code be given so late this time, and the feeling was that the scout was caught first.

Hearing that the Seven Flails Society "betrayed" himself without hesitation, Ji Ao secretly glanced at the Hui camel in front of him, and seeing that Mr. did not look back, he immediately changed his face to his friend and "glared angrily", and hit the Seven Flails Society with his elbow when he passed by.

Ji Ao, an eighth-level martial artist, and the Seven Flail Society are students of the same period, both of them are extremely talented martial artists, and they have a deep friendship. In the face of his friend's "anger", the Seven Flails Society did not hide, and was hit by him, snorted, and then pulled the corner of his proud clothes with a hippie smile, and whispered: "Brother, live and die together, live and die together!"

Hui Camel walked straight up to the podium, ignoring the small movements of the two disciples behind him.
