"March, this March, a secret realm has been opened in the inner courtyard. Only strong men at the fifth level of the Soul King Realm are eligible to enter. I heard that those with the best chance are trying to break through to the seventh level of the Soul King Realm!"
Wei Can whispered, feeling a little disappointed. As an alchemist, although his spiritual power was not weak, there was always a gap between him and the top inner court disciples.
It's not because he has poor talent or doesn't work hard enough, but because he spends a lot of his time refining elixirs.
"Don't look down on the alchemist!" Lu Chen guessed the loneliness in Wei Can's heart and comforted him.
"Master, you look down on us too much, don't you?" Zhu Yong and others smiled.
"Tell me about the Academy Competition!"
Through the narrations of Wei Can and others, Lu Chen knew that the inner court was indeed very powerful, but over the years, it had been at the bottom of the college competition. It was not because of the strength of other college disciples, but because of problems with the inner court's rules.
When he first entered the inner courtyard, Lu Chen was surprised when he saw the list. There were so many old students in the inner courtyard, why did the strongest one only reach the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm?
Only now did I know that there was an unwritten secret rule in the inner courtyard. As long as the strength reaches the fifth level of the Spiritual King Realm, they must enter the elders' chair within one year and are no longer allowed to consider themselves students.
In other words, as long as their strength reaches the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm, they will be appointed as mentors at least within one year and will not be allowed to appear on the list.
"Why is this?" Lu Chen was puzzled.
"This is a rule that has been passed down forever. No one knows the reason!" Wei Can shook his head.
"So, there are strong students in other colleges, and the strongest one in the inner college this time is probably the seventh level of the Spirit King Realm?" Lu Chen frowned, confused by the inner college's move. This can be regarded as an indirect suppression of students participating in the competition. .
"It's not about suppression. As long as you are willing and your identity is clean, you can apply to become an elder in the inner circle at any time, and you will almost always pass!"
"What on earth is the dean doing?" Lu Chen still couldn't figure it out. "Aren't we letting other colleges suppress us?"
Hearing this, Wei Can also smiled bitterly, "Isn't it true? Rumor has it that this time there is a strong man in the academy who has the ninth level of the Spirit King Realm. One person is enough to overwhelm the entire inner courtyard."
Lu Chen nodded, "It won't be overwhelming. Failure is inevitable. Because of this, you don't want me to compete?"
"Well, because the reward this time is too tempting, according to rumors, a holy weapon is very likely to appear!" Wei Can said, feeling his throat was a little dry.
A holy weapon, he didn't even know which academy had the confidence to offer such a reward.
"A martial arts weapon!" Lu Chen's expression also changed. He knew very well how terrifying and precious martial arts weapons were.
Just like the old demon from the Black Realm, who has the strength of the Spirit Master Realm, he still misses the spear in Chen Yi's hand.
At present, the struggle for hegemony among the Spirit King Realm has actually led to a martial spirit weapon. If this news spreads, I am afraid it will attract rebellion from several colleges.
He also wanted to know which academy was so confident that it would take out a martial arts weapon as a reward.
"It seems that we have to go for a walk for that martial arts weapon!" Lu Chen whispered. Hearing this, the faces of Zhu Yong and others changed, "Master, you have to think clearly about the final outcome of participating in the academy competition. It’s all tragic!”
"Is this the reason why you didn't let me participate?" Lu Chen looked at Wei Can and others.
Wei Can nodded with a heavy look on his face, "In the past, almost all the disciples who participated in the competition came back!"
"Team annihilation?" Lu Chen was surprised. In this kind of competition held by several colleges, the important thing is to participate, and the action should also be a discussion. It is only right to exchange experiences with each other. Even if there are injuries, they should not be serious.
"Yeah!" Wei Can took a deep breath, his eyes filled with anger.
Lu Chen waved his hand, "In that case, it's more important to leave. If you don't know how to show appreciation, I don't mind letting them get wiped out too!" A cold light flashed in his eyes. The inner courtyard was kind to him, and he had to repay it.
Whether it was the mental illness method given to him by the great elder Ye Luoshan, the tens of millions of waste resources, or the dean's experts coming out this time just to bring him back, this was a debt of gratitude that was difficult to repay.
The preciousness of mental illness
It goes without saying that being able to enter Wumu Academy has a secret method that makes his head grow bigger.
As for this time, if Dean Shen Qianjie had not come forward, Lu Chen estimated that he might not be able to return to the inner courtyard. The Black Domain Alliance had obviously been prepared, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to arrive at the Wusheng Sect so quickly.
Thinking about it now, Chen Yi's arrest seemed accidental, but in fact, it was more like a pit. After digging it, he had to jump into it. However, the leader of the Wusheng Sect, a nine-star Spirit King Realm expert, only needed one step to jump into it. Entering the Lingzong realm, such a strong man turned out to be a chess piece.
Lingzong Realm, the original Daluo Dynasty, even before the Lingzong Realm appeared, countless forces in the entire dynasty were breathless. The appearance of Jian Wuye made countless forces frightened.
It's a pity that time and fate were arranged by the royal family. He was at the peak of his debut and brought the entire sword sect to destruction.
"Master, that is not a simple competition!" Wei Can and others were anxious and did not want Lu Chen to take risks.
Lu Chen smiled, knowing that explanations were useless and would only make a few people more anxious. He also knew that a few people really didn't want him to take risks. In their opinion, Lu Chen had been dead for three months and missed a big event. Opportunity. Read the book
In just an instant, the expressions of several people changed, and they stared at Lu Chen as if they had seen a ghost.
"Ninth level of the Spiritual King Realm?" Several people seemed to be in a dream.
"No, this should be at the peak of the realm, and it is possible to enter the Spirit Emperor realm at any time!" Wei Can was shocked. He had never seen anyone practicing like this before.
A few months ago, these new students entered the inner courtyard. At that time, his identity was placed there and he had little contact with the new students. Hearing that the young man in front of him should have the strength of the Spirit King Realm, he pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger, and deceived many old students. Everyone estimated that The third stage of the Spiritual King Realm.
Everything is speculation, because no one has ever seen the young man in front of him explode with all his strength. Later, he died once. He felt that he was probably around the sixth level of the Spirit King Realm. At that time, he was so shocked that he could not speak.
He didn't even dare to guess that he was at the sixth level of the Spirit King Realm, and warned himself that he was only at the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm, because the apparently strongest Laosheng in the entire inner courtyard was only at the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm.
I never thought that three months ago, if the opponent wanted to enter the Sutra Pavilion and die again, he would already have the strength of the peak Spirit King Realm.
"Brother, how do you practice?" Zhu Yong stepped forward with excitement on his face and almost knelt down.
Lu Chen was speechless, looking at the people who were staring at him helplessly, "I really don't know this, I broke through while sleeping!"
When Lu Chen said this, he always felt that these words seemed familiar.
Wei Can and the others almost got into a fight. They had never seen anyone hit so hard.
Seeing that Lu Chen had reached the peak of the Spirit King Realm, several people felt relieved, "Brother Chen, you have to vent your anger on Tiannan College this time!"
Lu Chen nodded, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "If they are really targeting Tiannan College, then as a disciple of the inner court, I should definitely make them bleed!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. It was Shi Pei, holding a letter in his hand. When he came in, he saw several people with weird looks on their faces, as if they had drunk chicken blood.
"Boss, the dean sent it here!"
Hearing this, the room fell silent. "We won't let you leave the freshman area and become the inner dean elder, right?" Wei Can and others looked a little ugly.
"What are you talking about?" Shi Pei looked puzzled. As a freshman, he naturally didn't understand the secret rules of the inner court. It was only after Zhu Yong explained that he suddenly understood, "Brother Chen, you will not become the fastest person in the inner court." The elder’s student, right?”
There was silence in the whole room, looking at each other. They roughly calculated the time, and it should be about seven months. In about seven months, a new student has reached the position of being able to enter the elders' seat, allowing them to feel like they are here. In a dream.
Immediately, the faces of Wei Can and others changed again, and they urged Lu Chen to go and have a look. If he was really allowed to join the elders' table, Tiannan College would probably be wiped out again in this competition.
Looking at the address in his hand, Lu Chen smiled and walked towards the mountains in the distance. He had been to this mountain peak before. The great elder Ye Luoshan had a brief chat with him here, and then left the inner courtyard and left the Southern Wasteland. , Otherwise, how would the old devil from the black realm dare to be so arrogant and dare to ask for the bloody spear from Dean Shen Qianjie?
"Here it comes!" Shen Qianjie swung his fishing rod, and a palm-sized fish appeared on the shore. He took off the hook and put the fish into the water.
"Master Dean!" Looking at the old man sitting on the wooden board fishing, Lu Chen bowed respectfully.
"Well, sit down wherever you want!" Shen Qianjie nodded and put the fishhook into the pond again. This time he turned around and looked at the young man not far away.
It was less than a year after he entered the inner courtyard. If it were any other new student who saw him, he would never be as calm as the young man in front of him.
"Dean, there's no need to be surprised. If you've seen big shots a lot, you'll naturally get used to it!" Lu Chen seemed to have guessed what Shen Qianjie was thinking. He patted the dust on the wooden board under him and said, then sat down. Staring at the old man staring at him.
"Who are you?" Shen Qianjie frowned. The young man in front of him gave him the illusion that he was looking at a layer of fog. This was the first time among ordinary disciples.
"Dean, you don't suspect that I'm a mole, do you?" Lu Chen shrugged.
"The mole?" Shen Qianjie smiled, "Did that little girl An Rou tell you?"
Seeing Lu Chen nod, Shen Qianjie looked at the fish pond, pointed at the tea on the table, and motioned for Lu Chen to pour it himself.
"Thank you, dean!" The dean in front of him was too casual, and he felt like he was the same.
He picked up the tea cup and sucked it hard, making Shen Qianjie who had just turned his head very angry, "This is good tea!"
Seeing the pained look on the dean's face, Lu Chen put down the tea cup without thinking. Just when Shen Qianjie breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Chen directly picked up the teapot and used the cow drink to its fullest.
"I..." Shen Qianjie stared directly. Seeing that the bottom of the pot was pointing upward, he could only sigh, "Actually, An Rou is my daughter!"
"Pfft..." Lu Chen covered his nostrils, tea flowed down his nostrils, "Ahem..." He kept coughing.
