Chapter 370: The Sea of Flowers and Figures on the Hillside
Compared to the hustle and bustle and sunshine outside, the valley inside is full of greenery. Buildings are built along the mountain walls on both sides, and the ground in the middle of the valley is mostly empty, used as a training and fighting venue.
Walking on the path between bluestone and bamboo, Tilan and Mel can hear the training shouts coming from the valley below, and occasionally there are explosions that break through the air, as if they are testing some powerful moves.
"Welcome Miss Heshia and Miss Mel. It was not convenient to say your names directly outside just now." The woman walking in front introduced the two.
"My name is Guan Yuan, I am the secretary of the board of directors of the academy, and I am also responsible for external business."
"The board of directors has already told me about your purpose. I will try my best to provide convenience and care. If you need anything, you can tell me during this period."
"I don't know what arrangements Miss Heshia has today. If not, I can take Miss Heshia and Miss Mel to walk around the academy and visit first."
"Then I'll trouble Sister Guan Yuan." Mel nodded.
After that, the two walked towards the bottom of the valley, and the sounds of breaking air and shouting that they had heard before became clearer and clearer. Here, many students could be seen training on the bluestone square in the valley, practicing strength and martial arts techniques. They
should be first-year students. Heshia looked over and saw that most of these students in loose blue clothes were Sequence 2-3, and they were still a little childish.
After crossing the palace corridor in the valley, the three of them came to the hall on the side of the mountain wall. The room was filled with a hint of coolness from the mountain bluestone. In the hall, the teacher was teaching the students to learn the knowledge of the extraordinary sequence. There was also a translucent golden human model on the high platform, which had various magic patterns and flowing routes, and explained the techniques of how to exert and operate magic.
This group of students should be second-year students, most of whom were Sequence 3, and a few were Sequence 4.
After a short listening session outside the hall, the three of them continued forward, turned around several pavilions, and came to the depths of the valley. Here, they could see some students practicing against each other on the ground, among whom there were many Sequence 4 elites, and a few were Sequence 5 geniuses.
These students should be third-year students, and Tilan nodded slightly.
Finally, the three of them came to the innermost part of the valley. The peaks on both sides gradually closed together, and in the middle there was a huge hillside leading to the sky.
The hillside was full of light green and purple flowers and plants. The wind blew through the valley, and the ripples of these flowers and plants swayed and spread to the horizon.
There was no road here. The three of them walked through the flowers and plants that were half a leg high and headed towards the top. When they came to the highest part of the hillside, there were several students fighting each other.
The air waves were flying, and the young man in white was wrapped in transparent airflow. His figure was soaring and fast, passing through the sky from time to time, and then quickly turning back. It seemed that flying in the air was no longer an obstacle, but fighting on the ground could allow them to exert their full strength.
The changes of hand knives and fists, the colorless air blades slashed, or lifted layers of soil, or cut off nearly a hundred meters of flowers and plants, or passed through the side of the body, flew into the sky, and became a disappearing cyclone.
The dozen young men here all have the strength of Sequence 5 and are physically strong. Most of them are boys, and only a few are girls. In the battle, there are bursts of fists and sharp sonic booms from time to time.
If bare-handed combat without armor is promoted, these people should be extremely outstanding and dazzling.
Unfortunately, this trend has not been set off in the current Federation. Since the death of Master Erlong, this trend has become less and less popular, and now few people pay attention to it.
After watching the battle for about 20 minutes, an old man called for a stop, and the group of students stopped to rest. Some began to heal their injuries, some sat on the grass to rest, and some exchanged their experiences in the battle just now.
Soon, the old man passed through these students and came to the side of the hillside. After seeing Tilan, he slowed down his pace, and his eyes were sharp and spirited, looking up and down at the girl.
"What a good seedling, your steps are light and free, you look like a willow, but you can move at any time, and you are full of spirituality. Which sect did you learn from?"
He was sure that this girl was from a famous school, and it was definitely not something he could achieve by practicing casually.
"Qinglian Xijian Palace." The girl answered softly. In fact, she had learned many systems, but the old man must have been talking about something related to combat skills.
After hearing this answer, the other party's eyes lit up and seemed quite satisfied.
"Although we are not on the same side, this ancient name is really comfortable to hear. How about fighting with me for a few moves, I can teach you some exclusive secrets."
Seeing him inviting a fight, Guan Yuan on the side wanted to stand up to stop him, but Tilan stepped forward before her.
"Okay, but if this grandfather loses, can you tell me something about your faction?"
"Hahaha, you are really ambitious, but I like it. Nowadays, there are too few young people who are energetic but not arrogant. Telling you these things is not worth mentioning."
After saying that, he raised his hands, and then his footsteps sank slightly, one in front and one behind, which was the standard starting move. Tilan had also seen such moves in the classics of Qinglian Xijian Palace. They were used a lot to lay the foundation for her disciples in the past.
Although she also knew some unarmed combat, it was far less frequent and convenient than using weapons, and she had no intention of fighting unarmed at this moment.
With one hand raised lightly, the flowers and plants that had been cut on the hillside flew and spun, and then they entangled and condensed together to form an emerald green sword. The hilt of the sword looked like green wood, and the blade was like glazed jade, which was held in the girl's hand.
After holding the sword in her hand, the girl did not move immediately, but closed her eyes slightly, looking at the opposite side slowly. At this time, a breeze was blowing on the hillside, and black hair and a few purple petals were flying.
Then the girl leaned forward, took three steps in one step, and lightly passed through the sea of flowers as if she was stepping on the water, and ran towards the other party.
The emerald glass-like sword blade swung across the sea of flowers, bringing up some green and petals, and slashed at the opponent in the chaos, while the old man opposite responded in a deep voice. With a loud shout from the other party, the fist swung out like a tiger roaring and thundering, exploding the sword blade and flowers in front of him. The blasting air wave lifted the sword blade from the side, causing it to shift the direction of the slash. Then the old man's body was as fast as lightning, turned sideways, and swept his leg across the figure in the sea of flowers, as if he was ready to kick it away directly, without any mercy.
However, facing this situation, Tilan didn't care, she just turned over easily and dodged, and then she held the sword and soared in the sky like a flowing cloud and a flying swallow.
"Bluebird's Orthodox Teachings: The Blue Sky Shining Sword."
The lethality of this sword technique is not too strong, but it is extremely effective against souls. Another great use is that it can soar with the wind, making one's movements particularly flexible and light.
Facing Tilan standing in the air, the old man below frowned. Although he was good at fighting martial arts, he was not as flexible as the girl in the air. He could only go straight. If he left the ground, his strength would be discounted.
After several times, it was even more difficult to touch the corner of the girl's clothes.
Seeing that the old man was faintly angry, Tilan decided to descend and fight with the opponent on the ground again in order to prevent the old
man from getting angry. This time, the opponent also attacked directly, and his fists and feet were extremely fierce, as if he wanted to teach this proud and arrogant young man a lesson. The sword blade swung like a stream of light, and Tilan easily blocked the old man's attack. Her sword blade was not sharpened, so unless she stabbed directly or slashed intentionally, she was not worried about hurting the opponent.
After several minutes of attack, the old man on the opposite side began to breathe heavily. Although his moves were becoming more and more powerful, and even the occasional missed punches could shatter the rocks on the opposite side, he still could not effectively attack the girl. She either dodged them or used the sword wind to shatter the air waves, only lifting a few hair and hems.
Seeing this, the old man was a little embarrassed and began to use the core moves in his faction.
"The Secret Method of Breaking the Air: A Punch to Fix the Mountain!"
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and shouted, and it was like an invisible air wave rushing towards the opponent, causing Tilan's originally light movements to stagnate. Then he retracted his right fist, and the invisible air wave surrounded and compressed it. Then he swung it out with all his strength, as if shattering the atmosphere. The fist wind instantly penetrated the opponent's body and hit the mountain wall a hundred meters behind, and countless broken stones fell.
Facing such an attack, the girl only felt her chest shrink, and a dull and crushing feeling burst out, causing a trace of blood to flow from the corner of her mouth.
She was careless. If she had accelerated in advance, the opponent would not be able to lock on to her, and the battle could even end in three to five seconds, without giving the old man a chance to use his moves completely.
With her eyes blinking, Tilan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with one hand, then lightly pressed her chest, and the injuries in her body quickly recovered, and then returned to normal. At this time, she jumped up, out of the attack range of the old man below, and then dived down quickly.
Like a green stream of light passing through the atmosphere and the sky, after a sword crossed, Tilan stood on the other side of the hillside, dispersing the blade, turning into broken green petals and grass leaves flying away.
On the other side, the old man had nine fine scars on his forehead, neck, wrists, shoulders, and legs. Blood beads oozed out of them, staining his white clothes red. Although there was no damage to his internal organs and flesh, the wounds that precisely cut through the epidermis were enough to show the strength of the inflictor, and his deep understanding of his own and the opponent's reactions and strength.
At this point, this temporary battle came to an end. Despite his Sequence 6 strength, the old man still misjudged the situation and failed to show his personal authority among the students and juniors, so he could only end up in embarrassment.
In response, Miss Guan Yuan, who was dressed in a smart suit, reluctantly came over and leaned over to introduce the identity of the girl to the old man. Only then did he bow with an uncomfortable and apologetic look on his face and clasped his fists.
"It is Miss Tilan who has offended me."
After that, everyone gathered around curiously, and then, under the organization of Miss Guan Yuan, they listened to her introduction of the identity and purpose of the girl. At this time, everyone truly understood that this girl was the famous Heshia Tilan, now the most shining singer in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region.
