After driving for a long time, Heather arrived at Huoshi Village on the afternoon of the 13th.
Although Huoshi Village is called a village, it is actually an antique town.
People who practice Buddhism are generally not short of money and have a high social status.
Huoshi Village has been inherited for many years. Even if you don't care about enjoyment, you won't really find a shabby little cottage to live in seclusion.
Huoshi Village is divided into two parts. Some of the newly built ancient buildings in the front are open to the public. Huoshi Village can also be regarded as a small tourist attraction. Although it is already a hot summer, there is still no shortage of tourists.
Entering the boundary of Huoshi Village, the first thing you see is the large gatehouse, with three big characters of dragons and phoenixes engraved on it - Huoshi Village!
When Heather stepped out of the car with a long sword on her back, she attracted the attention of many tourists.
"Is that a spiritual practitioner?"
"It should be so. Look at that sword, it doesn't look fake."
"I heard that there are many cultivators in the unopened area behind Huoshi Village. Are they spiritual practitioners from Huoshi Village?"
"I'm not sure, but this person looks familiar..."
Among the tourists, some people whispered, but no one dared to approach Heather.
In the eyes of ordinary people, spiritual practitioners are a privileged class regardless of their strength.
Especially in recent years, the government has continued to elevate the status of spiritual practitioners, and now the polarization has become increasingly serious.
However, there is very little interaction between ordinary people and spiritual practitioners. In addition, the threat of alien spiritual practitioners has been made public. Some ordinary people who were previously dissatisfied with the status quo are now venting their grievances on these alien spiritual practitioners.
Heather had no intention of communicating with these people, so she walked into the gatehouse and stepped onto the street paved with bluestone slabs.
There are stores on both sides of the street, selling special snacks, selling tourist commemorative items...it's very lively.
"Is such a noisy environment really suitable for practicing?"
Heather was doubtful. The locations of Lingdao College were located in quiet areas and were generally not open to the public.
The Military Defense University is so big that you often can’t even see a single person even if you walk for a long time.
In practice, I am actually afraid that my mind will be distracted and easily distracted.
Military Defense University is located in a big city like Yanjing, and it is quiet and peaceful inside. However, the Huoshizhai faction actually opened the sect in a tourist attraction and actively developed and opened it. This was somewhat beyond Shi Nan's expectation.
In his imagination, the sect should be opened in the deep mountains and old forests.
In fact, it was Shi Nan who got it wrong. Spiritual Taoists also had to eat, drink, and have diarrhea. Unlike the Spiritual Tao Academy, which had government funding, the sect could actually get some subsidies from the government, but it was very small.
There are not many spiritual practitioners in these sects, but they still need to eat, drink, and defecate. Spiritual practitioners rarely do these things by themselves. As well as some daily consumption and cultivation consumption, they cannot all be expected to be harvested in the space world. Some spiritual practitioners Taoists lack financial resources, so the semi-opening of Huoshi Village to the tourism industry is also a way out.
Not only the tourism industry, in Huoshizhai, Shinan also saw the recruitment advertisement for the Lingdao training class.
Spiritual Tao training classes are also opened here, which is also a good business to make money. Fourth-level spiritual Taoists can just sit there and the tuition fees can range from hundreds of thousands to millions, but there is still no shortage of students.
A large number of ordinary people were unable to enter the Spiritual Dao Academy when they were young. When they make money, they will also use money to exchange for some medicines, becoming the most common supernatural beings in the spiritual Daoist profession.
Huoshi Village relies on the peripheral tourism industry to attract people, letting more people know that there are spiritual training classes here, thereby attracting more people from society to sign up. This is the main source of maintaining Huoshi Village's daily cultivation consumption.
Heather walked on the street with a long sword on her back, which also attracted many people's attention.
Not long after walking, Heather stopped in front of a small building with a plaque hanging "Firestone Spiritual Dao Training Hall".
As soon as he stopped, a middle-aged man wearing black spiritual training uniform walked out after a while.
The middle-aged man had a mustache and a majestic look on his face. He looked at Heather with a little fear in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Is the little brother passing by, or are you here to play?"
As soon as these words came out,
In the hall on the first floor of the small building, many people looked sideways.
On the street, there were also some tourists watching from a distance.
Shinan looked at the middle-aged man for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's not about playing in the gym or passing by. I want to enter Huoshi Village."
He was already in Huoshi Village at the moment, but he said he wanted to enter Huoshi Village. The middle-aged mustache was not surprising, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Go to the village to find someone?"
"I am Heather from the Military Defense University. I come from Sichuan and want to discuss with senior brother Geng Xiangyang."
"Military Defense University Heather!"
The middle-aged mustache instantly knew who the other party was and what his purpose was.
However, the middle-aged man immediately became angry and gritted his teeth and said: "We in Huoshi Village do not compete with others for fame and wealth! The sect is weak and the Spiritual Dao Academy is strong. We have retreated and retreated, but you have come to our door several times!
Last year, a student from Lingdao Academy came to challenge and seriously injured Xiang Yang. Xiang Yang has been stuck at the fourth level of Dzogchen and has not been able to enter the fifth level.
Now, you come to challenge me again. You really think that Huoshi Village is easy to bully! "
Heather was stunned, I didn’t know!
Are you venting your anger on me?
I was wronged too!
Is Old Man Zhang here?
Before leaving, he called Old Man Zhang. If he didn't come, the people of Huoshi Village wouldn't want to use him as a sacrificial flag, right?
And...who the hell has ever challenged Geng Xiangyang...
Cao Yangyao had said before when he was chatting with him that before he allowed himself to challenge the sect, it was best to bring the instructor from the Military Defense University with him. Wasn't it because he knew something like this would happen?
Looks like this guy did the same thing...
Shi Nan didn't know what to do for a while, but soon, Shi Nan took a breath and said, "I'm only here for the challenge, and I don't mean to bully. Spiritualists should compete for fame and fortune. Geng Xiangyang Ranking at the top of the Tier 4 combat power list, it’s no surprise that I challenge you.
Uncle, why don't you inform me that Geng Xiangyang, as a spiritual Taoist who is about to enter the fifth level of the fourth level of Dzogchen, doesn't he even have the courage to fight? "
"snort!"
The mustachioed man snorted heavily, glanced at Heather, and said coldly: "Okay, since you insist on challenging me, I, Huoshi Village, am not someone who is afraid of getting into trouble!
But you take the initiative to challenge, in the sect, it is different from your Spiritual Dao Academy!
If you lose, keep the lottery tip and your sword! "
Shinan's face changed slightly, and his mustache said calmly: "What? You don't dare? If you don't dare, then leave! Firestone Village has no obligation to be your opponent. Since you want to challenge, you will naturally have to pay the price!"
Heather took a deep breath and said, "Then what if I win?"
"If you win, your goal will be achieved. What else do you want?"
The mustache sneered and continued: "If there is no chance of winning, I advise you to leave. If you lose the weapon in the competition, you, the God of War of the Military Defense University, will come to your door and you won't be able to get it back!"
Shinan and Xiaoling communicated for a while, and after getting the agreement, he said solemnly: "Okay!"
According to Xiao Ling's words: "You, Heather, came here just to become stronger. If you are timid and timid before fighting, the top ten spiritual practitioners will not challenge you. As for losing... hum, you No matter how hard you try, you can’t lose!”
In fact, Heather is still confident. When the time comes, don't blame yourself for cheating. Although this is not in line with your original intention, the Sword of the Holy Path is one of your secrets, and Heather can't afford to lose it!
Hearing that Shinan agreed, the mustache laughed and said, "Okay, come with me!"
After saying that, the mustache turned around and looked at the people in the Spiritual Dao Hall and said, "You are lucky this time. Come with me and let you see the real battle between Spiritual Daoists!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the students in the Lingdao Hall were all happy.
In the Spiritual Dao Training Hall, everyone's goal is just to become a Spiritual Daoist. Before becoming a Spiritual Daoist, not to mention watching the fight between Spiritual Daoists, there are not many Spiritual Daoists in sight.
Some of their teachings are actually not spiritual ones, unless your physical strength reaches the standard and you can take elixirs to prepare.
When the breakthrough was made, spiritual practitioners came out from Huoshi Village to protect the way.
Now, it is a rare opportunity for them to witness a fourth-level battle.
Shinan hesitated to speak... You are using me as free advertising. Have you paid me any endorsement fees?
However, considering that it was someone else's territory, Shinan still didn't say anything. Forget it, write down this account. Huoshi Village owes him an advertising fee, and he will ask for it when he has the strength.
When Heather followed the mustache and walked deeper into the town.
The students from the Spiritual Dao Academy who followed behind were also whispering about Heather.
"He just said that he is Heather from the Military Defense University, the one with the third-level fourth-level combat power on the Prodigy List?"
"It's him. I've watched the live broadcast of the National Elite Competition before."
"These are all fourth-level spiritual practitioners. Hey, no wonder these people can enter the spiritual academy. We should have been unable to get into the spiritual academy back then. Even becoming a spiritual practitioner is so difficult."
"I've heard people say that there are a lot of strong people here in Huoshi Village, but this is the first time I've seen their spiritual master take action. Do you think they can win?"
"I don't know. Also, are there people from Huoshi Village on the fourth level of the Tianjiao List? I didn't notice it."
"I don't know, I can't figure out the situation of their spiritual practitioners. After all, we are not spiritual practitioners."
"If you are not a spiritual practitioner, you know too little. When we become spiritual practitioners, we will probably have a clearer understanding."
"..."
Heather heard this and said nothing.
He can only say that these people think too much. Almost all the spiritual practitioners in the spiritual training class are at the first or second level. Most of them are flesh-spirit practitioners who do not want to practice martial arts, but just want to get some subsidies and improve their social status. That’s all.
Although it is now required everywhere that spiritual practitioners must practice martial arts and must be inspected every year.
But even if these people have practiced martial arts, they will not know about the space world unless they really come to that moment and need them to enter.
Otherwise, things in the spiritual circle will still have nothing to do with them.
Of course, there are also Spiritual Dao Halls that are not flesh-spirits. For example, the Wuyang Cultivation Hall where Gong Xia is located is an exception. Most of them have practiced martial arts and can even take on some tasks issued by the Spiritual Dao Administration Bureau...
