The inner court selection competition is held once a year.
Fifty students are selected from the outer courtyard each time.
As the blood of the inner courtyard for the new year.
In this world where power is everything, monopolizing martial arts or fighting skills has not been a rare thing since ancient times. If the admission standards of Canaan College have blocked a large number of young people, then the quota for entering the inner courtyard will be It can be said that it has stuck almost all young people.
Because the rules of the selection competition and the admissions rules of Canaan College are two different routines. The admissions rules are to recruit all young people who meet the conditions and intend to join Canaan College. The conditions are laid out here. There is no shady secret. There is no quota limit.
But the rules of the selection competition are...
Choose the best from the best, rather lack it than waste it!
Only the fifty strongest people!
It doesn’t matter your level of cultivation!
Actual combat, the strongest, fifty people!
The rules are so simple and crude!
Therefore, in a sense, luck is also a very important part. If you are lucky, you can be placed into an opponent that you can defeat effortlessly, and then be able to squeeze into the top fifty. , if you are unlucky, even if you are first, you may fight to the death with the second, and finally be defeated by others while being seriously injured, and miss the opportunity to enter the inner courtyard.
But who can say for sure about luck?
To put it bluntly, you still have to rely on your own strength.
Canaan Academy is also deliberately promoting the importance of its own strength. If someone has Lu Yuan's level of fighting spirit, no matter how unlucky he is, he will be challenged by forty-nine opponents from second to fiftieth in turn. Able to stand in the ring unharmed.
Therefore, it is strength that outweighs luck.
If you are unlucky...
Please don't blame your luck...
This thing is not something you have the final say...
What you can have the final say is your own strength.
This is the spiritual thought that the inner court selection competition wants to convey to all students. The strong are respected, and this world is also conveying this idea all the time. Only the strong can have the ability to master everything, and only the strong, Can have the ability to define everything.
Strength is everything.
It's unbelievably rough and blunt.
This year's Inner Court Selection Tournament was more exciting than previous years. Although there was no fighting between Wu Hao, Bai Shan, Hu Jia, Xiao Yan and others two years later, the fifteen-year-old fighting spirit Lu Yuan caused The turmoil caused by the two people, plus Xiao Xun'er, who was a great fighting master at the age of fifteen, could not be subsided in just three months. Even the old students who had never met Lu Yuan and Xiao Xun'er could not calm down. I have all heard their names more or less. If there is any explosive point, it must appear in these two people.
As for...
Watch something like this...
In fact, it is not the same as the explosive point.
Hot spots tend to be in unpopular categories.
The highlights tend to focus on exciting categories.
Any exciting battle has a lot of highlights. Even if Lu Yuan or Xiao Xun'er is not fighting in the ring, there are still many highlights in the battles of other students.
The hot spot is like a dark horse. The more people think it is impossible to win, the more likely it is to win in a bizarre way. This is called a hot spot.
Lu Yuan and Xiao Xun'er are not considered dark horses.
Because their strength has been exposed.
The main reason why they are ranked among the hot spots is that both of them are freshmen this year, and their cultivation levels are too outrageous. And the old students who can participate in the inner college selection competition generally have three or more years of studying in the outer college. Experience, and things like cultivation and realm do not absolutely represent a person's combat power. If Lu Yuan is really a fighting spirit, for the old student who currently has the highest level of two-star fighting master in the outer courtyard, It's definitely a pretty big challenge, but if you're facing Xiao Xun'er, with an explosion, it might be possible to defeat Xiao Xun'er.
Isn’t the explosion coming soon?
When one is too strong, even the opponent's fighting spirit will be drained.
Lu Yuan has now become a living target.
In game terms, it’s the big boss.
Whoever can defeat the big boss is the brave one.
In reality, it is the biggest explosion point!
Who doesn’t want to witness the famous scene of a great fighting master defeating a fighting spirit across levels?
Which great fighting master can resist the temptation to defeat a fighting spirit across levels?
What's this called?
This is called: Losing is not a loss, winning is a gain!
At least, this is indeed true for the great fighting master who challenges the fighting spirit. Moreover, even if he loses in the end, he can still be evaluated as a fearless and strong man, which is also an invisible cultivation of his own reputation. It can also be regarded as a loss and a gain.
"This is really..."
"The big tree attracts the wind..."
From the end of the last experience to now.
In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.
The weather in mid-October, if there is no rain, can be regarded as a refreshing autumn. Moreover, due to the existence of Tianfen Qi Refining Tower, the climate near Canaan College is relatively hot. Winter in Canaan College is coming soon. Winter is later and shorter than elsewhere.
With four distinct seasons.
At the end of November, it’s time for snow.
No matter how bad it is, there should be some light snow in early December.
This is a change in solar term.
However, in Canaan Academy, the first snow usually falls at the end of December. If the season is not good, it is normal for it to snow at the end of January. At the end of the month, the winter at Canaan College is over.
Over the course of a year, if you're lucky, you'll get about two months of winter. If you're not lucky, it'll be only a month or a month and a half.
Fortunately, no one bothered about this.
In other words, there are too many places in Dou Qi Continent where the seasons are unclear. If you really want to struggle, you may not be able to get a result even if you struggle to your death.
If nothing else, here are a few common examples:
The place in the far west where the Bone Spirit Cold Fire is produced is a special area where ice never melts. It has a winter climate all year round. Moreover, it is even colder than winter. The days when the sun comes out are few and far between. Where did spring, summer, and autumn come from? None of them...
The two fighting skills of Fenglei Pavilion's Three Thousand Thunder Phantom Body and Three Thousand Thunder Movements are the most suitable training ground. Thunderstorms occur all year round, and the rocks are jagged. Not to mention the changes in the four seasons, you can't see two suns for a year. Three hundred and sixty-five days, it is your honor to see the sun all day long, and it is the honor of everyone in Fenglei Pavilion. The words "seasonal changes" are not easy to use here...
There are also the Burning Flame Valley, a site specifically used to practice the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire, the Jiuyou Huangquan where the ghosts live all year round in the territory of the Jiuyou Earthly Nether Python clan, and the most special celestial tombs, including the cave of the ancient Emperor Tuoshe.
There are so many different kinds of secret realms.
There are too many different special locations.
Almost every advanced earth-level fighting skill or heaven-level fighting skill requires a corresponding training venue. Therefore, whether it is a special environment naturally shaped by heaven and earth, or a training place created artificially, the climate inside is contrary to the normal seasonal changes. of.
The Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower is located in Canaan College. This is no secret.
Even students from the outer courtyard will know it if they ask.
It is not incomprehensible that winter comes later and leaves earlier.
Therefore, it is completely in time to start the inner court selection in October. As for whether there are any changes, there must be some. After all, the admission time of Canaan College has been moved forward by several months this year, and it has even broken the previous century-old record. The rules require tutors who go to the Jia Ma Empire to recruit students to bring all the freshmen back in advance and then screen them. Such important events as the inner court selections are naturally brought forward relatively early.
As for...
Is there any other reason for the advance of the inner court selection...
There must be some.
Xiao Xun'er's information channels are very good.
Lu Yuan was not stingy in praising this fact.
Since the Canaan Academy family has a great cause and the actual dean Mang Qianchi does not exist, once the rules are changed, Su Qian, the chief elder of the inner courtyard, must come forward and cooperate with the elders of the inner courtyard and many elders and deputy deans of the outer courtyard. The dean communicated and gathered everyone's opinions before deciding on the main theme of changing the rules. Therefore, it was not difficult for Xiao Xun'er to send several Douzong to inquire.
As for how to find out...
Lu Yuan is not the only one who knows spiritual fighting skills.
The ancient family has a great cause, and it is normal to have several Douzongs who are proficient in spiritual fighting skills. In Canaan Academy, where Douzong is currently the most powerful combatant, if you want to learn some news quietly, no matter how easy it is But that's it.
If you want to quietly cause some destruction...
To be honest, it is a bit of a difficult challenge...
Even for Xiao Xun'er, it's the same...
And another reason is interesting to mention.
It's because of Lu Yuan!
Yes!
That's right!
It's because of himself!
I don’t know what Su Qian thinks, or whether he believes that breaking the rules must be broken all the way to the end. In short, he hopes to give Lu Yuan and Xiao Xun’er a platform to better display their abilities. Therefore, for two reasons, he The time for the inner court selection competition has been moved forward.
It is worth mentioning that Su Qian and many elders of the inner court will also come to watch this inner court selection competition. However, it is up to the elders of the inner court to decide which one to watch.
All in all, it is a suggestion, not forced.
Xiao Xun'er even teased him for this.
Said his face is big enough.
Let Canaan College give in to him.
Of course, Xiao Xun'er was just teasing. Both he and Xiao Xun'er actually understood that Canaan College was not giving in for a certain person, but that Canaan College was willing to make concessions for geniuses. This is also the case in all extraordinary worlds. the main tone.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sighed.
Every growth.
Every time I look back.
He can feel the importance of strength more and more.
Ideals are just like love.
Only when you can fill your stomach can you think about love.
Or, to think about ideals.
When you can't even fill your stomach, and you can't even survive, your thoughts are no longer about love and ideals, but how to survive first. Only by living can you have a future.
In other words...
Don't even think about the future...
You just have to think about now...
"What a cruel but simple world!"
Sitting in his own courtyard.
Lu Yuan looked at the pond in front of him.
He lifted the fishing rod and sighed.
A koi fish leaps out of the water.
There are also two golden whiskers growing on the mouth.
But it was gently tapped by the fishing line and fell back into the pond.
Excessively improving one's realm is not the right path.
The skyrocketing realm and mana required him to take time to adapt, which was why he did not continue to improve his cultivation.
Especially his physical fitness is relatively strong.
Therefore, more mana can be accommodated.
Without spending some time to master it, it is easy to lose control of power in battle, and once the situation of losing control of power occurs, flaws may be exposed. After all, in his current state, the power lost when losing control is not A pound or two, if an opponent of the same level seizes the opportunity, it can be fatal with one move!
Compared with him, Qing Lin's improvement speed is very fast.
From the sixth stage of Dou Zhi Qi three months ago.
Three months later, she is now a six-star fighting master, and has more than ten fighting king-level snake monsters under her command. Even if Hu Qian, the dean of the outer courtyard of Canaan College, wants to capture her , it’s not something that can be done in one or two moves.
In terms of fighting skills, Qing Lin has also been practicing harder in recent days.
The three-flowered pupils of the green snake are indeed powerful.
Special attack against snake monsters.
Controlling snake-like monsters across two realms can only be said to be basic operations. Although as the strength increases, the difficulty of control also increases. After all, the fighting spirit in a one-star Dou Zun and a nine-turn Dou Zun is always the same. The amount is not at the same level. The total amount of Dou Qi has been increased at least a hundred times. No matter how powerful the Bi Snake Three Flower Pupils are, Qing Lin cannot control the snake-like monster of a Nine-Rank Dou Zong when he was in the Dou Zong. , However, this does not mean that the Blue Snake Three Flower Pupils are useless.
The biggest advantage of Bi Snake Three Flower Pupils is the violent troops.
In other words, it is always more to defeat less.
When Qing Lin becomes Dou Zun, as long as the environment allows, she can mass-produce Dou Zun's subordinates, and they are the kind of Dou Zun's subordinates who are not afraid of death. Puppet is not a rare thing, Lu Yuan can make it now It just depends on the toughness of the material. There are enough souls of snake monsters in this world. Even in the vast world, there are many souls of snake monsters. These can be Qinglin's help. and food intake, therefore, it is easier for Green Scale to become a thorn in the side of snake monsters.
without any exaggeration.
But Fan let the Jiuyou Earth Python know the existence of the Blue Snake with Three Flower Pupils.
Even though Qing Lin's strength is still weak.
It poses no threat to the Jiuyou Earth Python Clan.
Even though Qinglin is currently in the barren northwest continent.
For Zhongzhou people, it is a place where even dogs don’t want to come.
Even though Canaan College stands thousands of feet behind.
It is an existence that the Jiuyou Earth Python Clan does not dare to provoke.
The Jiuyou Earth Python clan will also use all their strength to rush over at all costs and kill the scourge of Qinglin in the cradle.
Otherwise...
They are also afraid that their ancestral graves will be dug up...
His ancestors became the puppets of others...
One day, he may even confront his own sword...
To put it more harshly: Who is not afraid?
This is not a question of whether you can do it or not!
This is a matter of mental breakdown!
Moreover, even if I do it, the pain from behind will be so painful that I can’t breathe!
Snake blood is indeed cold.
But since snake monsters can transform into humans, it means that they have the emotions of a normal person. At most, they are relatively slow in terms of emotions. They can still tell who loves them.
Some concepts about "ancestors" also emerged.
So it doesn't matter if they die in battle.
Nothing can happen to their ancestors!
They will eventually become the ancestors in the eyes of future generations!
They also don’t want to be manipulated by others!
However, the control power of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils is very strong, and the effect is also very domineering. The more souls it controls, the weaker the effect. In fact, the control effect on the soul of each snake monster is constant, at most It’s just that the efficiency of fighting energy output is a little higher!
Therefore, before becoming a Dou Zong, Qing Lin had better not expose such a powerful weapon as the Blue Snake Three Flower Pupils. Even if Lu Yuan is bearing the pressure, before Lu Yuan becomes a Dou Zong, it is best not to expose it. Low-point.
Fortunately, the green snake with three-flowered pupils has no special characteristics except for controlling snake-like monsters. In this world where wearing glasses is uncommon but still exists, Lu Yuan polished two lenses for Qinglin and solved the problem of seeing people.
certainly.
Not every lens can have such an effect.
The main reason why the green-skinned green snake and three-flowered pupils can be covered up is because Lu Yuan cast some small magic on the lens, changing the angle at which the lens itself refracts light, and also changing the color of the light falling on a certain location.
Therefore, when Qing Lin wears this pair of flat glasses, whether looking from the front, from directly above, or from all directions, he can only see Qing Lin's emerald green pupil itself, but not the pupil. The three heart-shaped petals present in it.
The point is, there are no traces of fighting spirit on the plain mirror.
In other words.
It won't attract other people's attention.
The effect of light refraction is constant.
As long as the lens itself is not broken, it doesn't matter if you change the frame, the masking effect will still exist and will not fade away at all.
Xiao Xun'er knew Qing Lin's eyes well.
In terms of knowledge, she is no less knowledgeable than Yao Chen.
However, Xiao Xun'er also understands whose maid Qing Lin is currently. If she follows the usual rules, she will definitely get Qing Lin at all costs. After all, the ability of the Green Snake and Three Flower Pupils is too strong. Whenever The holder of the Green Snake Three-flowered Pupils appears in this world, accompanied by the wails of the entire snake clan, and the Green Snake Three-flowered Pupils are not transplantable. No one can use them except the person who gave birth to these pupils. Arriving at Qinglin is equivalent to mastering all the snake clan in the world. Even the ancient clan cannot remain indifferent in the face of this power.
but……
As the saying goes…
Beating a dog also depends on the owner...
Not to mention that Lu Yuan discovered Qinglin first.
Not to mention Qinglin's loyalty to Lu Yuan.
Not even mentioning that Qinglin was rescued by Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, and Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were Xiao Yan's brothers, and Xiao Yan resented her.
Everything, even if you don’t mention it all.
She couldn't bear the revenge from Lu Yuan!
So, if you know it, you will know it.
Except for the three words "got it".
Everything else is useless.
Propaganda?
What's in it for her?
Seducing secretly?
Do you think Lu Yuan is blind?
After thinking about it, Xiao Xun'er finally discovered that she couldn't do anything. Except for knowing, she was no different from people who didn't know. No matter what she did, it was thankless to her.
Therefore, it is better not to do it.
Every time she thought of this, Xiao Xun'er felt like she had been tricked by Lu Yuan again. She could only use confessions again and again to check and balance Lu Yuan, and counterattack at the same time.
However, there are not many days like this anymore.
Lu Yuan's pace was too fast.
In three months, he became a Seven-Star Fighting Emperor.
If Lu Yuan is given another year, he can become a Douzong at least. Within three to five years, Lu Yuan will definitely become a Douzong. Within ten years, if nothing unexpected happens, Lu Yuan should be able to become a Douzong. A fighting saint.
And she had seen Lu Yuan's combat prowess before.
Dou Huang kills Dou Zong like a dog.
No ordinary Dou Zun can defeat Lu Yuan, who is at Dou Huang level.
Based on the above analysis, we can speculate.
If Lu Yuan becomes a Dou Zun, and the Dou Sage does not take action, the Half-Saint will probably not be able to get any good fruit from Lu Yuan. Even if the Dou Sage takes action, the Dou Sage of three stars and below will not be able to catch it. Lu Yuan, and this is under the premise that Lu Yuan does not open the Eye of Destiny.
Although she didn't know how many abilities the Eye of Destiny had, she still knew something about predicting the future.
If Lu Yuan opens the Eye of Destiny...
To put it mildly...
Even if Emperor Dou takes action, whether he can catch Lu Yuan or not is still a matter of debate!
Therefore, only normal combat power is calculated here.
And once Lu Yuan became a fighting saint.
Even if she can't tie with the Dou Emperor, she can still achieve a tie with a Nine-Star Dou Sage. Although her realm and cultivation level are a little behind, her vision is not bad. Lu Yuan is in these few The methods shown when capturing some snake monsters in Yue are not the methods that should exist in this world at all. Although sometimes it is necessary to make secrets and recite incantations, everything is borrowing or using the power of this world. !
Fighting skills and fighting skills are two different concepts!
Fighting skills are based on one's own fighting spirit.
Spells use one's own mana as leverage.
One is the essence, which depends on the quantity.
The other is leverage, which relies on principles.
In the early stage, fighting skills are definitely more popular. In any case, fighting skills are instant skills. Even pinching skills can only be done by making hand seals and posing without the need to read. But in the later stage, spells are definitely more popular. After all, the essence of magic is to borrow the power of heaven and earth. The power of all cultivators living in this world, at its maximum, will not exceed the world itself that contains him. Fighting against Lu Yuan is no different from facing the entire world.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xun'er let out a long sigh.
There is really nothing she can do if she is not as strong as others. The most helpless thing is that she still wants to catch up with the other party and see the broader upper-level scenery.
but……
The inner court selection competition is about to begin...
After entering the inner courtyard, there was more room for her to operate.
"I don't believe it."
“Your heart is truly made of stone.”
"Even if it is made of iron and stone..."
"I can also use the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame to refine it for you!"
In the small courtyard.
Xiao Xun'er silently rubbed the teacup in her hand.
Looking at Lu Yuan teasing the koi on the edge of the pond.
Looking at Qing Lin practicing fighting skills in the bamboo forest.
A small golden flame seemed to suddenly appear in his calm eyes, and he couldn't tell whether it was fighting spirit or something else...
