Xia Xiao was born in the season when all flowers are in full bloom. He is sixteen this year and will be seventeen soon. Everyone laments the speed of time. Half a year ago, when they had just reached the mountainside, they gathered in the peach forest to drink wine with peaches. Now half a year has passed, the flowers and leaves in the peach forest have fallen, and the most lonely and desolate time of winter has been eliminated. Many leaves have grown on the bare branches.
Because he was immersed in cultivation, that winter was probably the fastest for Xia Xiao. In the past, every winter, something happened that made him nervous and sad, but last winter was unexpectedly quiet, which was probably because spring and summer came very early. But even if time passed faster, Xia Xiao's strength could not have a particularly big improvement in such a short time. Therefore, he had to be cautious when fighting with a 24-year-old cultivator.
If the other party was an ordinary person, not to mention a man in his twenties, even if he was in his thirties or forties, Xia Xiao would not be able to prove himself. But this time, he was facing the disciples of the old five major forces. Since they had that title, they could not be ordinary. Xia Xiao could not use the people around him to calculate the current strength of those guys, because the people around him were the strongest in various places, and they should have some shortcomings. But the difference in talent should be made up by age. They have practiced much more time than Xia Xiao, and have eaten many more meals, so they should not have eaten them in vain.
After leaving Senior Hu Bugui, Xia Xiao went to the stone road on the top of the mountain to practice. He had been in a decadent state for a while, and now it was time to return to his normal state. While Xia Xiao was practicing quietly, everyone in the Little White Building was discussing the ten places this time.
According to everyone's discussion, among the ten places, Xia Xiao, Tian Ming, Long Suihong, and Wang Ling are definitely there. With Ah Zhu, it should be a team. Although many people think that Ah Zhu can't go, she doesn't need to go on the field at all. The fact that she can't detect her aura is enough to give the other party a headache.
Everyone was silent for a while, heartbroken by the teacher's sacrifice. But now this matter has mobilized their enthusiasm again. Although they can't go, they can discuss it. Most people can imagine that Ah Zhu appeared in the hall, but the opponent's strong man couldn't sense her aura at all. At that time, their faces must have turned green. That scene is funny to think about.
The lineup of the first team is luxurious, and no one can snatch the five places away. Invisibly, Xia Xiao and the other five have become more important in their hearts. Especially those who went to the East of the East China Sea last time, their admiration for Xia Xiao is no less than that of the vice president who only met him once. Since Xia Xiao drove the ancient strongman who even Di Muli couldn't beat back to the seal, although the teacher has explained that it was the power of the brand of the ancestor of the spiritual contract in Xia Xiao's body, it still can't stop them from being surprised. This is indeed something worthy of admiration.
In addition to Xia Xiao, they have also seen the strength of Tianming, Long Suihong and Wang Ling, who are all top-notch warriors. But the selection of the second team is much more vague, and many people even want to compete. Whether it is their competitive spirit or the pride of going to the battle on behalf of their classmates in the academy, they are jealous of this position.
The first people that came to everyone's mind were Xie Yi and Yin Zhiping. As the most outstanding princes of the Southern Kingdom and the Shelie Kingdom, they were very powerful. Unfortunately, Xie Yi was injured some time ago and has not woken up yet. It is estimated that he will not be able to fight in the next half month.
The prince of Gou Longbang is not well-known in the academy, but Long Ying is quite strong. Among all the countries, the prince of Tianmeng, Chang Renjie, has the lowest strength. Although he has reached the mountainside, he still lacks something. Among the ten places this time, there may be no place for the people of Tianmeng, but no one knows the result until the final selection. The decision of the academy has always been expected and unexpected.
Sure enough, when selecting players the next day, the first team consisted of Xia Xiao, Tian Ming, Long Suihong, Wang Ling, and A Zhu. But the size of the second team was not that weak either, with members including Bing Feng Fenglu from the Great Forest, Li Yuanhao, the son of the general of the Southern Kingdom, Yin Zhiping, the prince of the Shelie Kingdom, the sea beast Shui Tan, and Long Ying, the poor son of the Gou Longbang family.
Ten people came out and stood in a row under the Little White Building. Dimuli was quite satisfied when he saw them and said:
"Ten people are tentatively selected. If anyone is dissatisfied, they can challenge him. If they win, they will be replaced."
It's easy to say, but which of these ten people is weak? The least famous ones are Li Yuanhao and Long Ying, but the former is the strongest person in the South Country except Xie Yi. As a talisman master, Long Ying can easily beat everyone else because of his majestic vitality. Not to mention the senior's tricky eyes, to be honest, they can't beat them. So these ten people stood there for a long time and no one challenged them.
“You guys are not very motivated!”
Hu Bugui was easygoing, while Di Muli was more cheerful. He wished that everyone would fight for the quota. Hu Bugui might still praise the story of Kong Rong giving up his pears, but he would not. What was there to give up? If he could do it, he would just try it boldly! Anyway, they were all students on the mountainside. If they got hurt, they just applied some medicine and the matter was over.
Men need to learn to relax their minds. As for girls, they can hold grudges if they want. After all, these things vary from person to person. He never talks too much. There are many truths that others say but are just passing by. Only when you understand them yourself can you remember them forever.
Seeing that so many people still didn't take action after his reminder, Dimuli was slightly displeased and said:
"I encountered a similar situation back then, and my seniors didn't choose me, but I still went. It wasn't because I really wanted to go, but I wanted to prove that I was no worse than others, so I just went up and did it. What was there to be afraid of? Let me ask again, is there anyone who wants to go?"
Dimuli was calm and didn't force anyone. Some people knew their own strengths and knew that it was a good thing not to fight if they couldn't win, but there were always people who suppressed their competitive spirit. He said those things before to let them loosen their restraints. Although the college advocates individuality, some students have been here for four years and still restrain themselves all the time. This is not a good habit and is not worth learning.
"I'll do it!"
Someone raised his hand, causing Dimuli to applaud. Chang Renjie tied his hair up, licked his lips, and when he came forward, there was a hint of cunning in his eyes, as if he had some plans.
"I challenge Ah Zhu."
This statement surprised everyone, but Ah Zhu looked at the senior and looked at Xia Xiao. What should she do? She couldn't beat him! When she was worried, Xia Xiao kicked him.
"Azhu, you are crazy to challenge me, right?"
"What the senior said is fine!"
Chang Renjie dodged Xia Xiao's kick in a funny way, which made everyone laugh. Di Muli couldn't help but said:
"You bastard, she's special, how can she compare? Pick another one!"
"Forget it, I can't beat the others!"
Chang Renjie is a prince of a country, but he lives like a gangster. His carefree and half-hearted appearance makes several Tianmeng people sigh, but they can't do anything about it. The eldest sister is also from Tianmeng, and she is very different from him.
"If no one challenges us, we will disband and go back to practice!"
It was easy for everyone to gather together, but they also dispersed quickly. Ah Zhu pouted, thinking that he still needed to improve his strength, so he dragged Xiao Ran to the peach forest. Xia Xiao looked at him, turned around and walked towards the mountain road, practicing, practicing, practicing to a certain level, and then taking a step forward.
Xia Xiao certainly could not have imagined that when they were practicing, the leaders of the older generation of the five major forces had such confusion.
