The news that Kou Chongxue was seriously injured spread a lot inside and outside Youzhou.
However, where Kou Chongxue is now hiding in retreat to recover from his injuries after being injured is the matter that all parties are most concerned about, both covertly and openly.
There is a hidden place inside Tongyou Academy, which is of course the most suitable and possible place for Kou Chongxue to hide.
However, since the news of Kou Chongxue's serious injury spread, countless masters with various motives have tried to enter and exit Tongyou Academy to find out where he is really hiding.
But what these people received was a tough response from Tongyou Academy. They were either driven away or killed, no matter which force they came from, and their bodies were thrown directly outside Tongyou City.
Although the situation in the two worlds was tense at that time, most of the academy's combat forces had gone to Tongyou Peak, and only Yunjing, a fourth-level master, was left in charge, Tongyou Academy still did not show any weakness.
Even if the other four colleges in the frontier came to help later, Yunjing even did not hesitate to parade around the city with the magic weapon Youxue Sword to intimidate Xiaoxiao when the situation was unclear.
There is no other reason than that Kou Chongxue, with one man and one sword, controls the remaining corner of Youzhou, making all forces inside and outside the region fearful.
The power of the fifth level...
The benefits of divine weapons...

"What? Chief Kou Shan really wants to see me?"
Shang Xia looked at the person in front of him in surprise, forgetting even the most basic respect, and asked with a tone of confusion and questioning: "Now?"
Shortly after Shang Xia left the martial arts arena, he was blocked by the person in front of him and brought him the news that Kou Chongxue had summoned him.
Shang Lubing, who didn't know when he would return to Tongyou Academy, didn't mind Shang Xia's questioning tone and said with a smile: "It seems that you have been prepared for his summons in advance."
At this time, Shang Xia also realized that his tone just now was a bit offensive, and said: "Sir, don't blame me, but now I don't know how many pairs of eyes are looking for the hiding place of Chief Kou Shan, covertly or covertly. Go see him at this time..."
In fact, if the person who said these words to him hadn't been Shang Lubing, the sworn brother of Kou Shanchang who had been hiding in Tongyou College for twenty years, Shang Xia would have even suspected that this person had ulterior motives. The roses will be buried in hidden piles in the college that have not yet been exposed.
Shang Lubing smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter, we are worried that those people dare not show up. Once they dare to secretly track or intercept you, it will be time for us to close the net."
A look of surprise appeared on Shang Xia's expression, but he was extremely reluctant to do so.
"It's a joke. Isn't this just a bait for me to lure those with ulterior motives into being exposed, so that I can catch them all in one fell swoop? But why am I the master?"
"You know, anyone who dares to harbor ill intentions towards Kou Chongxue at this time has no qualifications even if his cultivation level is below the fourth level of heaven?"
"Although I have just advanced to the third level of heaven, in the eyes of those warriors who have condensed their natal spiritual evil, I am nothing more than a grasshopper that can be easily destroyed!"
Of course, these words could not be spoken, Shang Xia only thought about them in his heart.
After all, Shangke has mentioned this matter before, which means that the merchant not only agrees, but also participates in it.
At this time, I heard Shang Lubing say again: "And you are not the only one who has been summoned by the mountain chief this time..."
Shang Xia was startled and asked subconsciously: "Who else?"
Shang Lubing still didn't mind Shang Xia's interruption in the middle, and still smiled lightly: "There are also Dou Zhong, Mu Qingyu, Zhang Jianfei, Tian Mengzi, plus you, there are five people."
Shang Xia nodded with all his thoughts in mind.
Although he has been in seclusion within the family during this period, he has also received some news from Yan Qi one after another.
The five people mentioned by Shang Lubing were the only students who won more than they lost during the discussions and exchanges with the disciples from the other four colleges.
It happened that these four people, Shang Xia, all knew each other, and they even had some interactions with each other.
Shang Xia followed Shang Lubing and walked towards the depths of Tongyou Academy. The direction he looked at should be the area where the secret room specially opened by the academy for retreat training was located.
Shang Xia was in seclusion in a secret room here, and forcibly practiced the "Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand", but it attracted thunder from the sky to split open the secret room. Due to a strange combination of circumstances, not only Shang Xia came to this world in a daze , and also took the opportunity to develop a mutated "Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand".
It's just that when the secret room of Shang Xia retreat was split open by thunder, it was both a natural disaster and a man-made disaster.
This incident caused quite a stir at the time, but in the end it had to be settled.
Especially when a war broke out between the two realms, Yue Jihui's secret piles hidden inside Tongyou Academy were exposed one by one, and this matter naturally had a natural outcome.
Before arriving at this relatively private and quiet area, Shang Xia saw that four people were already waiting here.
The person in front of him was plainly dressed and average-looking, with only a pair of eyes that occasionally flashed with sparkle, making people dare not underestimate him. This person was none other than Dou Zhong.
Seeing Shang Lubing coming, Dou Zhong quickly stepped forward to salute and said respectfully: "Teacher!"
Shang Lubing smiled and nodded.
When several other people heard Dou Zhong being addressed like this, some were surprised, some were surprised, and some were envious.
This is different from the usual way that students in the academy refer to their teachers as "sir". The title "teacher" is mostly used when the relationship between master and disciple has been clearly established.
Although this is rare in Tongyou Academy, it is not uncommon internally.
And once this inheritance relationship is clarified, the relationship between master and apprentice is far from comparable to the usual teacher-student relationship in the academy.
Moreover, Shang Lubing is still a fourth-level warrior. Not to mention the five major colleges in Youzhou and even the frontier, even in the entire Cangyu world, those who have condensed their own spiritual evil can be regarded as veritable masters.
Being able to be the disciple of such a person is an extremely rare opportunity.
And this proves Dou Zhong's own excellence from another aspect. Otherwise, how could he, an ordinary student with an ordinary background, fall under Shang Lubing's eyes?
Moreover, judging from the results of Dou Zhong's competition with the elite disciples of the four major colleges in the martial arts field during this period, it undoubtedly proved Shang Lu Bin's vision, otherwise this student who almost missed the grade would not have been summoned by Chief Kou Shan.
Compared to the shock of Mu Qingyu and others, Shang Xia acted much calmer.
Dou Zhongde Shang Xia already knew that Shang Lubing valued him and accepted him as his disciple when he was in the war between the two realms.
After Dou Zhong saluted the teacher, he glanced at Shang Xia when he raised his eyes, and nodded slightly as a greeting.
A smile appeared on Shang Xia's lips when he saw this.
"The second level of Wuji Realm. It is said that it was the first level of Wuji Realm a few days ago. It seems that it has just been broken through, and its own energy has not been fully stabilized, otherwise I would not be able to detect it easily."
"Senior Brother Tian, Junior Brother Zhang, I didn't expect you two to come back from the two realms of war."
Shang Xia looked at Tian and Li and smiled.
