After a restless night, the four of them set off on the road to Liangxi Courtyard before dawn. Mu Ziyun felt a little uneasy on the way. He pretended to be strong, but in fact he was self-aware of his own strength. He was indeed not If Fang Tianmu's opponent were to fight to the death, he would definitely be killed.
Before coming here, Mu Ziyun still had the arrogance he had when he was regarded as a "genius" in Huzhou, but since he met helmsman Hu Na in the sea fog, he realized that the aura of the so-called "genius" was gradually fading, and Fang Tian It's just a matter of admiration. If we really want to be particular about it, whether he can ring the bell is a question. Does Old Man Xiu really mean what he said? Does he really have a good physique but doesn't know how to use it?
Hu Zi was also sighing in his heart. Every day spent on Guanglang Liuli Island meant that Feng Jing in his hometown had to wait one more day. He was eager to return home and wished he could step on the land of Huzhou immediately. He was afraid of long nights and many dreams. I don’t know how Feng Jing is doing now or whether she was forced to marry again. But it's not that easy to go back. Without a map, they will never be able to go back after drifting on the sea for a lifetime.
"Xiaomu, you look so bad." Lingdang came over and said with a smile, "You're not afraid anymore, are you?"
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll meet you during the competition and be eaten by your tiger."
"Ha, I'm not the only one with that tiger. I've never used the power of the magic pill until now. I'll show it to you if I get a chance today." Lingdang jumped to the front, opened his arms, and felt The fresh breath of morning light, maybe this is her way to relieve stress.
Although the entrance of Liangxi Courtyard was full of people today, there was no noise at all. Everyone present had a cold look on their face. Mu Ziyun and the four of them randomly found a place to stand. An hour later, a teacher from Liangxi Courtyard shouted Said: "Everyone has got the waist card. After a while, words will be displayed on the waist card to inform you of today's first round of tasks. There will definitely be duplicate tasks. How to solve them depends on you. Not yet. After entering, you still have the right to exit, but if you enter, you must follow the rules of Liangxi Academy. You are allowed to fail the mission, but you are not allowed to escape. Hehe, many people have been imprisoned by Liangxi Academy for escaping over the years. Where is the person who was beheaded?"
Just as he was talking, the sound of a flute came from inside, and the teacher said: "Come in!"
Entering the Liangxi courtyard, they still walked on the road paved with blue crystal slates, bypassing several weird houses, and came to an open area, but it was only a hundred feet in size, so it was really difficult to use it as a competition venue.
At this time, an old man walked next to him, it was the "city lord" Old Man Xiu. Old Man Xiu had his hands behind his back and looked majestic. He stood in the middle of the open space and stamped his feet. Everything on the ground began to change. , those strange houses moved back like they had legs. The middle of the open space sank, the surrounding areas rose, and they continued to expand outwards. After a while, a huge competition ground appeared.
Old Man Xiu said solemnly: "Come in, your badges should start to show words. Find your seat by yourself. Before sitting down, you must clarify your mission."
The competitors began to move. This huge competition venue could hold more than tens of thousands of people, but the total number of people who came to compete was only four to five hundred, so they were all seated very loosely.
"Ah!" There was a howl from behind. Everyone looked back and saw several fresh corpses lying at the feet of several Liangxi Academy masters. Old Man Xiu sneered: "It's too late to leave now!" Those People should be assigned impossible tasks, so they take risks.
Mu Ziyun turned around and quickly wiped his waist tag. A line of small words appeared on it: "Kill the first person to win consecutively."
"This" Mu Ziyun's heartbeat was pounding. He looked back at Huzi and the others and thought to himself: "What should I do if they win consecutively?"
After finding a remote place to sit down, Huzi said, "My mission is to win two games in a row. What about you?"
Mu Ziyun's heart skipped a beat, his hands trembled, and he jumped up tightly. He looked around the scene and there were teachers guarding him at every other place. He sat back and thought to himself: "It seems that this mission is not possible." It’s no longer possible to do it.” Then he handed the card in his hand to Huzi. Huzi was stunned when he saw it. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said: “It’s okay. Since we are competing according to tasks, then I will play later.”
Ling Dang whispered: "My mission is to interfere with a competitor's mission and kill the mission holder. The meaning is explained below. For example, Hu Zi, if you want to win in a row, then I must kill you before you win in a row. about you."
"You are easy to handle and very selective," Mu Ziyun said, "You can do it later when it becomes easier, don't be impulsive."
"Hmph, don't look down on me, I'm better than you!" Bell said, tapping Mu Ziyun's shoulder.
"Brother Fang, what's your mission?" Huzi asked, stretching his neck.
Fang Tianmu replied calmly: "Kill people at will, at least ten people."
"Well"
The old man Xiu had already entered the attic next to the competition arena, sat on a chair and looked at the details of the arena. A teacher in the arena shouted: "The task is 'the first person to play', you can come up! Competition It officially begins, please compete according to the tasks."
There was a squirming sound next to Old Man Xiu's ears. The teachers around him all stood up and bowed respectfully back. Old Man Xiu turned around and said, "Here we come."
A guy in a robe came over. If you look closely, you can see that the robe is made of iron-like material, and there are bursts of hot red in many places. This guy doesn't seem to be moving when he walks. He stretched his legs, as if they were sliding.
This man came to the side of Old Man Xiu, opened his mouth, and his voice sounded like there was some water in his mouth, and he said: "Just turn around and leave."
His face was covered by a loose robe. He was silent for more than ten breaths and then said, "Huh? I sensed something good."
Old man Xiu stroked his beard, as if he had expected it, his eyes had already glanced at Fang Tianmu sitting in the distance.
Mu Ziyun suddenly noticed something. Fire beads flew out from his heart again and flew around his head. Hu Zi asked, "What are you doing?"
"It's strange, there seems to be fire burning around here."
"Liar," Lingdang replied, "If there is a fire, can we not see the smoke? What's more, this is inside Liangxi Courtyard."
"I'm not sure." Mu Ziyun scratched his head, "But I really felt that there was a large and powerful fire burning not far away, eh." Mu Ziyun suddenly looked at the ground and was stunned. Several people followed. Looking with his eyes, there was actually a "strip" of flames "crawling" here. It was really "crawling". It was no different from a living earthworm. It seemed that it felt the eyes of several people, and the flame stopped and stood up halfway. The body confronted several people.
Lingdang pulled Mu Ziyun's sleeve and said, "Did you do this? Why did you make it look like it was alive?"
"It's not me," Mu Ziyun shook his head and replied. Huzi came closer and stared at the flames and said, "Who else could play with fire in such a weird way if it wasn't you."
The flame began to crawl again, and soon it reached Mu Ziyun's feet, climbed up along Mu Ziyun's legs and shoulders. The fire beads came close to the flame, and seemed to be stunned, and carefully "sniffed" the breath of the flame.
The strip of flame opened a mouth and bit Mu Ziyun's face. Mu Ziyun was fine, but it was bitten apart. After it dispersed, it quickly gathered into shape. The fire bead also spit out some fire energy, wrapped the flame, and then pulled it into his body. The flame only struggled for a while before entering the fire bead.
Hissssssssssssssssssssssssss.
"Huh? What's the sound?" Lingdang asked suspiciously. Hiss! The fire beads on Mu Ziyun's shoulders suddenly exploded upward into a fan, forming a fire cloud and continuing to spit out fire. All eyes in the venue were attracted to it.
The fire cloud had a face, looking ferocious like a beast trying to break free from its shackles. Mu Ziyun's fire beads became redder and redder, and suddenly a huge fire claw burst out, grabbing the root of the fire cloud, and forcefully Pulling it back, the fire cloud let out bursts of wails, and after being submerged in the fire beads, there was no news.
Huzi stood up and bowed to the teacher on the sidelines: "I'm really sorry, something happened just now and disturbed you all, please continue."
The teacher frowned, rolled his eyes at Huzi, and shouted to the crowd: "The first person to come up, come up quickly!"
After Huzi sat down, he patted Mu Ziyun on the back and said, "Is someone dealing with you?"
Mu Ziyun was sweating profusely, as if he had fought a tough battle, and replied: "I can't tell, it's such a powerful fire, but it's still not as good as the one in the fire beads."
In the attic, the face had been exposed from the robe, the skin was like solidified molten lava, and the eyes were sunken half an inch deep. After a long time, he said with a slightly surprised but shocking voice: "I actually ate it." Got my fire!"
