"I am in the elective hall on weekdays. Whenever you want to learn runes or formations, just come to me. Now go and see your teacher."
The old man paused and said with a little regret:
"Alas, no one has chosen to major in Body Tempering for many years. As a result, in the Body Tempering lineage, not only the teacher has not come to recruit disciples, but also no students have come. You can only go and report on your own."
"Old senior, where is the Body Tempering lineage?"
Lin Yu didn't know much about Qinglong Academy. He only knew that the academy had ten main peaks, namely Qi refining, god cultivation, alchemy refining, medicine dispensing, treasure appraisal, talisman painting, formation formation, beast taming, ancient searching, and weapon refining.
The body quenching vein is not among them.
The old man said: "A small solitary peak to the right of the gate at the foot of the mountain is the location of the Body Tempering lineage."
"What? At the foot of the mountain?"
Lin Yu was a little stunned when he heard this.
The other cultivation lineages are at the top, high above, but this body tempering lineage is so good that it is nestled at the foot of the mountain? !
The old man explained: "There is no way, this is distributed according to contribution. The Qi Refining lineage in the academy has the largest number of people and has made the greatest contribution. It has trained countless soldiers and guards for Daxia.
Therefore, they live on the highest and largest main peak of the college and enjoy the best resources.
The body quenching lineage has the smallest number of people and has zero contribution. It is almost on the verge of being disbanded, so it stays on the edge of the mountain. "
"Thank you, senior, for informing me. I'll report it first."
Lin Yu clasped his fists and said goodbye, rushing towards the foot of the mountain.
Qinglong Academy, behind the palace halfway up the mountain, there is a green bamboo forest, quiet and quiet. Deep in the bamboo forest, a simple wooden house was built.
now.
Sitting on the central seat of the wooden house was an old man with white beard and hair. He was the deputy dean of the Half-Saint King who had been appointed by Lin Yu before.
He looked serious, stared at the two people standing in front of him coldly, and said calmly:
"Examiner Chen, Examiner Jia, tell me, who gave you the courage to tamper with the appraisal stone for the academy's spiritual energy assessment."
"Vice President Wang, Lin Yu said nonsense. We have not tampered with the appraisal stone. You can check it."
Jia Cheng thought it was Lin Yu who complained and quickly denied it.
He had already replaced the appraisal stone that he had tested before, and he was not afraid of the incident coming to light.
On the side, Chen Baoguo broke into cold sweat when he heard this, and his heart sank to the lowest point. What he had been worried about happened.
"Do you really think I'm blind? You still want to lie to me!"
Vice-President Wang's face darkened, showing no signs of anger.
"NO, I have not……"
Jia Cheng wanted to quibble, but out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of Chen Baoguo, who was sweating profusely. He suddenly seemed to be strangled by the neck and couldn't say a word.
“Qinglong Academy was founded in ancient times and has been inherited for more than 100,000 years. It has always been responsible for cultivating the pillars of the human race and has made many outstanding contributions to Daxia and other ancient countries. It is deeply admired and praised by countless people.
what is the reason.
That is, everything we do is based on strength and talent, and we never seek personal gain with power.
Even the Human Emperor respects our rules. If the prince and princess want to enter the academy, they must pass the assessment themselves.
It's better for you. Not only are you engaging in malpractice for personal gain, but you also want to frame the future arm of the human race in the academy. Do you know your crime? ! "
Vice President Wang's voice was not loud and he spoke slowly.
But to the ears of Chen Baoguo and Jia Cheng, it was like thunder exploding in their ears, causing their hearts to tremble.
Their faces looked as if they were dead, so pale that there was no trace of blood, and their bodies were dripping with sweat. You must know that those who have cultivated to the realm of monarchs and kings can control their bodies freely.
This kind of performance shows how far the mind has lost its grip.
They plopped down and fell to their knees.
"It was my dereliction of duty in choosing you to be the examiner and examiner. I will accept the punishment. As for you two, each of you will cut off an arm, hand over your identity token, and leave immediately."
Vice President Wang said coldly.
He didn't want to make this matter too big, after all, it was a scandal for Qinglong Academy.
"Vice Dean, we realize our mistake, please give us a chance."
Jia Chengru was struck by lightning and wailed for mercy.
He didn't want to lose his arm, and besides, the position of Protector of Qinglong Academy was too rich in resources and had a very high status, so he didn't want to lose it either.
"Before I change my attention, you'd better do it quickly and leave."
Although Vice President Wang's voice was calm, there was a faint pressure that sent a biting chill into people's hearts.
Chen Baoguo knew very well that Vice President Wang was famous for telling the truth and did not follow suit.
He cut off his left arm with a palm, stood up despite the severe pain, took out a glowing green token from the Qiankun bag, placed it on the desk, and left without saying a word.
Jia Cheng looked painful, gritted his teeth and then cut off his left arm.
He was sweating from the pain, and tremblingly handed over a flashing yellow token and placed it on the table.
He felt extremely regretful. Due to a moment of greed, he not only lost an arm, but also lost such a noble position. He didn't know how to explain it when he returned to the family.
Then, one after another, the two walked out of the bamboo forest and walked down the mountain along the stairs.
It's not that they don't want to fly, it's that they can't control the sky in Qinglong Academy without a token corresponding to their identity.
"Alas, it was a small mistake that made a big mistake. I really made myself miserable."
Jia Cheng sighed, regretful and full of pain.
"It's worthless. I just lost my position in Qinglong Academy. With the strength of you and me, there is no way we can't display our grand ambitions. I will definitely avenge my broken arm in the future."
Chen Baoguo said with a ferocious expression.
"Do you still want to deal with Vice President Wang?"
Hearing this, Jia Cheng was so frightened that he almost stumbled to the ground.
Vice President Wang has been a half-sage for nearly thirty years. He and Xiaoyaozi are both known as saints. They are two invincible half-sages with boundless strength.
If the two of them dare to seek revenge, they are simply asking for death.
"Our enemy is not Wang Feng, but that beast Lin Yu. If he hadn't passed the nine tests and complained, how would we have lost our arms and how would we have been punished."
Chen Baoguo Sen said coldly: "That beast Lin Yu also killed my grandson. This is an irreconcilable hatred.
Jia Cheng had no choice but to send a message: "But he is already a student of Qinglong Academy. If we kill him, we will definitely receive revenge from Qinglong Academy, and then the entire Great Xia will have no place to live."
"How many disciples of Qinglong Academy die every year? Don't forget, they will carry out various adventures and tasks. As long as our identity is not exposed, no one can do anything to us."
Chen Baoguo's eyes flashed coldly.
"But when will this wait..."
Jia Cheng was talking when he suddenly saw a familiar figure on the small mountain in front of him. He was stunned for a moment and said in shock:
"Isn't that Lin Yu? Isn't he supposed to be a disciple at the ten main peaks at this time? How could he appear there?"
"That's where the body quenching lineage is located. Did he choose body quenching as his major?"
Chen Baoguo looked surprised.
He remembered that in the level assessment, the opponent killed many Zhenqi monks with his physical body and passed the nine levels.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with great joy: "God help me, this idiot didn't choose to major in Qi Refining or other meridians, but chose the weakest Body Tempering.
The teacher of the Body Tempering lineage is only at the Divine Refining Realm, not even as good as me! "
"Haha, since he chose the Body Tempering lineage, then if we kill him, his teacher won't be able to do anything to us."
Jia Cheng laughed endlessly.
There is an unwritten rule in Qinglong Academy. Generally, if something happens to a disciple or student, the teacher he worships will be the one to resolve it. If the problem cannot be solved, then the teacher’s teacher is the one to be consulted.
This body-tempering lineage has one and only one teacher, and he is just a prince.
Compared to the other ten meridians, it is pitifully weak.
"Wen Zhixin from the Body Tempering lineage is a bad gambler. He often gambles outside. Several of his disciples are not talented. That beast Lin Yu wants to become a disciple. He will definitely come out to look for Wen Zhixin later. We are waiting at the door, maybe You can take revenge today.”
Chen Baoguo said excitedly.
"good."
Jia Cheng readily agreed.
At this moment, Lin Yu, who had deep resentment between the two of them, had already climbed onto Xiao Gufeng.
This mountain peak is not high, only more than two thousand meters. Compared with the ten main peaks that are tens of thousands of meters high, it is indeed a small mountain.
The mountainous area is very desolate, with ancient trees and wolf forests and dense vines, as if no one has been there for a long time.
Lin Yu raised his head and looked at the main peak of the Ten Meridians from a distance.
Some main peaks are filled with fairy music, misty clouds and shimmering rays of light.
Some main peaks are full of vitality, with waterfalls as long as thousands of feet, falling down like the Milky Way falling from the sky.
Some main peaks have flying cranes and suspended heavenly palaces, which are extremely peaceful and like a pure land outside the world.
But the main peak of this body quenching vein is covered with weeds and thorns. Compared with the other ten veins, it is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
"I kind of regret choosing to major in the Body Tempering lineage."
Lin Yu was a little speechless, this was too dilapidated.
He walked forward depressedly. There was silence in front of him, overgrown with weeds, and very barren. It didn't look like a spiritual mountain at all, even worse than the beautiful mountains outside Qinglong College!
On an ancient tree not far away, several crows croaked and flapped their wings to fly.
The road up the mountain was completely covered with thorns and overgrown vegetation, and it seemed that no one had cleared it for a long time.
After much effort, he finally arrived at an old house. At this time, bursts of excitement came from inside.
"Fifth leader, six six six... you lose, drink."
Lin Yu listened carefully and realized that it was actually the sound of fist pumps urging people to drink.
This doesn't look like Qinglong Academy, the Holy Land of Cultivation. It's just like a tavern.
Lin Yu was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. He knocked on the wooden door and shouted softly: "Is anyone here?"
"Lao Liu, go and open the door, a guest is coming."
A rough sound came from inside the house.
"Okay, don't open the cards, wait for me."
A slightly high-pitched voice sounded, and then the door opened, and a fair monkey face poked out, asking Lin Yu: "Brother, what can you do?"
"I'm here to become a disciple. Is Teacher Wen Zhixin here?"
Lin Yu said.
"What, becoming a disciple? Is it possible that today is the college's enrollment day, and there are still people who choose to temper their bodies?"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room ran out. A total of five men and one woman crowded together. They all looked strange and looked at Lin Yu as if they were looking at rare treasures.
Damn it, I didn’t even know today was admissions day, I’m convinced.
Lin Yu was extremely speechless.
"Such a handsome and tender boy actually chooses to temper his body. What do you think, young man?"
The only woman, tall and thick, looked at Lin Yu with a confused look on her face.
The monkey-faced young man said with sympathy: "Little brother, are you also deceived by the master?"
"I volunteered. Where is Teacher Wen Zhixin?"
Lin Yu said helplessly.
"Master is at Minghe Gambling House. Little brother, if you want to become a disciple, I will go find him and come back immediately."
A strong man who was three meters tall and looked like a little giant smiled.
"It's okay, let him play. You can pay your respects again tomorrow. I have to go back tonight to settle my relatives and send them home."
Lin Yu has completely given up. Even his teacher has become a gambler. This tempered body has not fallen into any situation. It is really worse than the legend.
He is no longer in a hurry to become a disciple.
Seeing that it was already getting late, I was worried that Zi'er and Mr. Jiang would wait too long and worry about them, so I wanted to go back and take a look first.
The strong man made a friendly suggestion: "Take Xiaogufeng to live here, we have many empty rooms."
Lin Yu asked doubtfully: "Don't Qinglong Academy not allow outsiders to enter? Even the maids and book boys cannot be brought in."
The strong man said: "Other veins are like this, but our body tempering vein does not have this rule. As long as you join, you are a family. The relatives of the family are also our family members and can enter."
"Don't listen to the old man's nonsense. The main reason is that there are too few people in our body quenching lineage. The ten token quotas given by the vice-dean have not been used up, so occasionally we can bring one or two relatives in."
The sturdy woman smiled.
"Okay, I'll bring them in later."
Lin Yu secretly thought that maybe the Body Tempering lineage only had this benefit.
His original plan was to let Zi'er take another test and enroll in Qinglong College in a dignified manner, while Mr. Jiang applied to be the guardian elder of the college, so he could just live in now.
"Little brother, I will go with you."
The monkey-faced young man chased after him enthusiastically.
"Thank you, no need. I have to go back to the inn later, it's a bit far."
Lin Yu politely declined.
"Then little brother, come back soon, and we will prepare a table of dust-cleansing banquets for you right away."
"No need to bother, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, Lin Yu ran down the mountain.
The six of them looked at Lin Yu's retreating back and jumped with joy.
"Haha, after ten years, I finally have a junior brother."
The monkey-faced young man cried with joy.
"Sigh, the road to body tempering is too difficult. Even the master has become decadent. We have been wasting our time after many years of training. I don't know how long my junior brother can persist this time."
The sturdy woman sighed.
"Looking at his thin skin and tender flesh, I guess he won't be able to bear the pain of tempering for a month at most."
"One month is too short, three months."
Everyone was talking, their voices filled with bitterness and helplessness.
"We're going down the mountain. This kid is really going to leave Qinglong Academy. Here's his chance for revenge."
At the gate of Qinglong College, Chen Baoguo and Jia Cheng saw Lin Yu walking this way and were trembling with excitement.
