In the morning, before dawn, Xia Xiao and the others were ready to return. Tianming's idea of skipping class was in vain, but he did not delay. Instead, he transformed into a giant dragon and flew the three of them out of the forest. It stirred up a gust of metallic wind, like a raging tide.
Standing on the dragon's back, Xia Xiao looked at the forest below. The castle was far away from him in an instant, but the holy spring remained the same size until the world completely disappeared from his sight. The holy spring that existed for so long would definitely not lie to him!
Xia Xiao smiled and hugged Shu Shuang, feeling quite relaxed. This time, he could feel more at ease when he returned to the academy. Whenever he solved something on his mind, Xia Xiao felt relieved.
With the refreshing cool breeze blowing, Xia Xiao and the other three rushed towards a huge talisman formation, and disappeared at the edge of the forest as they turned.
The Beast King stood quietly on the balcony of the ancient castle. An elder came up behind him and asked humbly:
"Is everything she said true?"
The elder had eyebrows like ice and an old face. He was the patriarch of the Ice Phoenix Clan and had a very high prestige in the entire forest, second only to the king. Such people were suspicious and doubted whether what the king told him was true. He did not doubt the latter, but the owner of the female voice. If what the king said was true, he had been used once. If there was a second time, wouldn't it prove his stupidity?
"After she showed up, I took her to the Holy Spring. She appears to be from the Great Wilderness World, but she is actually a dragon."
As children of the forest, the holy spring has an indescribable conviction for them, like a belief. And when the king said this, the elder could only define it as everything she said was true!
Silence, shaking head, the elder was quite regretful.
"It seems that sending them to Ningshen Academy is not a good choice."
Wang was also worried. The ten people who went were all outstanding juniors in his forest. If they refused to have any contact with the forest like Hu Bugui did, they would be the first to start an internal war. Thinking of his younger brother, Wang felt very sorry, but if the latter really stood on the side of the academy, he would not hold back. This war that was ready to start was not far away!
“We can only follow God’s footsteps. We cannot question or resist.”
Wang murmured, brushed past the elders, and walked into the room. They all looked focused, as if they had made a great decision with determination.
"king!"
The elder suddenly turned around, causing the king to pause.
"Can you hold off for a while? We need some time."
Wang was silent for a long time. He did not turn his head, but just looked at the dark room and the weak candle in front of him. It did not flutter or flicker, but kept burning, trying to illuminate the whole room with its own power. But no matter how bright it was, it was just a candle with limited power. It could not illuminate the whole room, nor could it warm the long winter of the wild beasts.
"good."
The king nodded. Although the candle light was dim, at least it was burning.
The elder looked at the king's back with gratitude, and the king lifted his feet and landed on the ground, and a wave of energy suddenly spread throughout the forest. All the tribes continued to live in peace, only their leaders panicked, and immediately gathered and came to the castle, some flying and some running.
The cloak was lifted, and the elders followed the king to hold a forest meeting.
In the past five years, the wild beasts have been patient for too long. Because of the king's seclusion, they have always been on the defensive, but now, whether for the dignity of the wild beasts or the balance of nature, they will counterattack. But as the king promised the elders, he will delay this time.
Thousands of miles away, the peach blossoms had turned into small green egg-shaped fruits, and only other flowers were still in bloom. A talisman array was turning, shaking off many shriveled eggs that had not yet grown.
On the blue brick square, Xia Xiao and his four companions returned and felt quite fond of this blue tile building in the early morning. Compared with the dark and gloomy Black Dragon Castle, this place seemed more approachable and intriguing. Perhaps it was in line with the saying that a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as one's own doghouse. No matter how luxurious the castle was, it lacked a bit of intimacy.
In the past, Tianming would definitely not feel that way, after all, the castle was his home. But when he returned to the academy, he always felt natural. He didn't need to be so serious in the castle and show off his dragon power all the time, but could be himself at will. This feeling made him stretch and feel very relaxed.
In the early morning, a fire was lit in the square, which immediately attracted the attention of Xia Xiao and others. Their arrival extinguished the fire. Under the fire, a man stood up. His face was familiar. It was Wang Ling from Nan Shang!
Rather than using the word "genius" to bury their efforts, it is better to say that they are all practicing hard and never slacking off.
Seeing the situation at this time, Chuan Lian laughed secretly.
"I'm leaving first."
Xia Xiao had already noticed what these teachers were thinking, so he didn't hold his senior brother back. Along the way, he rarely spoke, but gave Xia Xiao and the other two the opportunity to think and express themselves independently. Now that a conflict had finally occurred, he had to stay away, fearing that they would not fight.
"It succeeded so quickly?"
"I took a rest for one night."
Xia Xiao spoke coldly and walked straight towards Wang Ling, wanting to go to the Qingwa Building behind him. But the latter blocked the way, causing Tianming, who was sitting on a stone chair on the side, to cross his legs and watch the excitement. There was a show to watch early in the morning, not bad!
"It's been a while since you entered the realm of nobility. It's time for us to have a competition."
It was still dark, and Wang Ling's face looked even more malicious. He was in the same class with Si Qingling and Su Huan. The two women could tolerate him and remained calm no matter what he did. That made him look childish. Fortunately, they stopped making things difficult for him. But Wang Ling would not stop targeting the Great Xia Dynasty. His Southern Business was going to annex Great Xia, and all the hopes of Great Xia would be crushed by his own hands.
"How do you compare?"
Xia Xiao was somewhat disdainful. What kind of competition was this? Wasn't it just to show off his own power?
In the past, Xia Xiao would definitely refuse. Although he was not afraid, he did not want to waste time like this. With half an hour or an hour, what else could he do? But he was happy now. It happened that Shu Shuang had also signed the spiritual contract. He had to let those who wanted to see him embarrassed see that he was not someone who could be bullied easily!
"See you in the square after class!"
Xia Xiao smiled secretly. Wang Ling's tone always made him feel that this was a contest between gangsters. However, he still nodded and took Shu Shuang to the Qingwa Building. When he passed by Wang Ling, he didn't even look at him.
"How self-righteous!"
Wang Ling's face turned pale, and he was somewhat disgusted with Xia Xiao's demeanor. So awesome? Was it because of his own strength? But in an hour, he would show his strength and make Xia Xiao lose face and fall hard.
Tianming followed Xia Xiao and asked curiously:
"Are you really ready to fight?"
"I just promised, I can't go back on my word."
"He is a fire element, can you beat him?"
"able!"
Xia Xiao was extremely confident, but Tianming didn't know where his confidence came from. But they had known each other for almost half a month, and Xia Xiao was not someone who lacked knowledge and loved to brag. So what kind of special skills did he prepare?
Tianming was curious and didn't listen carefully during the whole class. Xia Xiao listened and successfully formulated the tactics.
Among the five elements, fire cannot overcome wood, but wood can generate fire. In other words, when the vitality of the wood element is weaker than that of the fire element, it will boost the latter's power. Therefore, many people think that fire overcomes wood, but this is not true! Xia Xiao's vitality is not as good as Wang Ling's, so neither the power of the wood element nor the power of the fire element can collide with the latter. But Xia Xiao has both Huo Dou and Ju Mang, and he can use Ju Mang's wood element to boost the fire of Huo Dou and make it swallow up the flames of Wang Ling.
This is roughly what Xia Xiao thought, but the facts are always different.
As soon as the get out of class was over, more than 400 people poured out of the school and gathered in the square.
Before class started, Wang Ling had spread the news. He couldn't wait to show the majesty of Nan Shang, and let all countries and forces know that Nan Shang was the strongest in the entire wilderness. Those who resisted or disrespected would be knocked to the ground!
Many teachers leaned against the window, watching them prepare for battle. Hu Bugui also came. He sat on the roof of the green-tiled building, his face was old and vicissitudes, his eyes were cloudy, and it was difficult for him to show any extra expression. But he really wanted to see what level this legendary person who came from afar had reached.
A tiny blade of grass, as thin as a green needle, emerged from the tile, but a person was standing there. Seeing her coming, Hu Bugui stroked his beard and said in surprise:
"It's really rare that you've come to join in the fun, Senior Sister."
At this age, how old should the so-called senior sister look? On the green grass, the senior sister stood gracefully, wearing loose clothes, and her snow-white peaks were about to be exposed, which made people dry their mouths and unable to control themselves.
The eldest sister twisted her slender waist and turned her body as if falling, sat next to Hu Bugui, and hugged her knees.
"This little fellow gave me a box of peach blossom cakes, which helped me to break through. Naturally, I have to come and take a look now."
Her beautiful eyes moved slightly, like fine wine, mellow and intoxicating. But apart from that, Hu Bugui felt that she had a more elegant temperament, like a person who was often drunk but had sobered up and would not get drunk again.
After a long time, Hu Bugui sighed, the realm above Taoism is indeed mysterious!
