Half a month has passed since Lu Jing and Yan Yun returned from Wujiang City.
During this period, rumors that Lu Jing began to practice secret power finally gradually spread in the academy.
So much so that whenever he goes to a place with people, he will inevitably be visited and pointed at behind him... However, most of the academy disciples and teachers still have a skeptical attitude.
After all, Lu Jing's secret power cultivation aptitude was tested once before by Professor Zheng, and the results were really impressive.
Not only did it break the academy's worst record in thousands of years, but it also seems to be unparalleled.
It is said that Professor Zheng has considered framing the word and keeping it for safekeeping. Maybe he can keep it until a thousand years later, when everyone has died, and even the academy is no longer there, the word may still have no change.
However, whether they are regretful, happy, or secretly relieved... No matter what their mood is, most people believe that Lu Jing can no longer embark on the path of cultivation.
No matter how high his martial arts skills were, he was on the Tianji List at a young age, performed incredibly well in the academy's entrance exam, and miraculously topped Xiao Bi.
But none of these can change his ridiculously poor qualifications for cultivating secret power. From now on, he can only continue to invest his energy in martial arts.
Perhaps one day in the future he can become the number one master in martial arts, but spells, formations, and talismans are destined to miss him.
But no one expected that Lu Jing, who had just shocked everyone in the competition, would start something new after being quiet for a few days.
When most people heard the rumors, their first reaction was disbelief. After all, after studying in the academy for so long and completing a hundred days of foundation building, they have officially become practitioners, and their understanding of the secret power has become deeper and deeper. .
We know very well that it is difficult to change qualifications by external forces, and Lu Jing's situation is not a matter of slight differences.
But when they think about how they had planned to compete with Lu Jing in a small competition with full confidence to prove their gains, but in the end they only ended up defeated, many people are not so sure now.
So the atmosphere in the secret power class has obviously become impetuous these days.
Even Professor Zheng, who was teaching the class, noticed that all the students who came to attend the lecture seemed to be a little distracted, as if they were expecting something to happen.
From the perspective of the disciples in the academy, if Lu Jing really embarks on the path of cultivation as rumored, he should come back soon to listen to the true explanation of the secret power.
After all, he had already missed a lot of lessons before. Now that he could practice his secret power, he should work hard to catch up with the progress of others.
But as time passed, the figure never appeared.
Moreover, some people who live relatively close to Lu Jing have discovered that Lu Jing has been retreating more frequently recently. He spends most of the day shutting himself up at home, which has led to more and more people becoming suspicious. to find out the truth of those rumors.
In fact, in the past half month, Lu Jing didn't even attend the few classes he originally had.
Among them, the Instructions for Supervision and the "Story of Strange Things" test were ignored, because everyone had to take them. There was a large group of people sitting below, and it was not obvious who was missing from the lectures.
But Tianxiang Guanyan is amazing. There are only three people in class. If Lu Jing doesn't go, it means that one-third of the people are missing.
However, what surprised Xie Anshi and Yan Yun was that Professor Xu never mentioned this matter from beginning to end. As if he didn't know that Lu Jing was not here, he still drank his tea slowly and talked about things that made people faint. Sleepy Astrology and Weather Knowledge.
Seeing Xie Anshi's expression getting weirder and weirder, looking here and there from time to time, Professor Xu finally put down the tea bowl in his hand, glanced at him, and said.
"Didn't you learn the art of looking at the wind and stars before coming to the academy? Why are you still so restless and unable to calm down?"
Xie Anshi was very embarrassed when he heard this, and quickly turned his eyes back to the star map in his hand.
However, Professor Xu did not continue speaking, but paused and said, "That's all, if you have anything to say, you might as well ask."
Xie Anshi opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say.
You can't just ask Professor Xu directly if he noticed that there is one person missing in the lecture hall. This would be disrespectful to Professor Xu and would make him suspect that he is dim-sighted.
Secondly, although he and Lu Jing did not have much friendship on weekdays, and he was even left behind by the other party, they were still classmates after all.
If he took the initiative to mention Lu Jing's absence to Professor Xu, he would be a bit mean, so Xie Anshi hesitated for a long time and couldn't squeeze out a word.
Professor Xu glanced at him again and said, "Don't you just want to know why Lu Jing has missed two classes in a row, so I didn't react at all?"
Xie Anshi blushed, waved his hands and said, "It's all my fault, disciple, that I am not determined enough to study. I shouldn't be distracted by external things."
Professor Xu shook his head, "Curiosity is human nature. Without curiosity, those seniors thousands of years ago would not have looked up at the stars and studied the stars. There are only three of you students in my astrology class. How could I not notice one.
"Actually, I was also very curious about why he didn't come, so I used the technique of Observation a few days ago to calculate the trajectory of his life star."
"The teacher looked at his life star?" Yan Yun's eyebrows twitched.
Professor Xu nodded, "The recent trajectory of his life star is very strange. At first glance, it looks like he has encountered a great opportunity, but after a closer look, it seems to be a bit like a disaster is imminent. It is really puzzling. This is the first time for me. Seeing such strange star phenomena.”
"Then...is this a blessing or a curse for him?" Yan Yun asked.
"I don't know." Professor Xu said simply, "Things like celestial phenomena are all-encompassing and mysterious. As we practice the art of Guanyan, we can only look at the places that we can understand. If there are deviations, or simply There are also many mistakes in interpretation.
"Don't talk about Lu Jing. Last night, on a whim, I took a look at the fate of the Chen Dynasty. I found that in one year at most, the world will be in chaos. This result is obviously wrong. Although the Chen Dynasty has been declining in recent years, there have been natural disasters. , there is a military disaster, but judging from the news I heard, it is obviously still a long time before the imperial court completely loses control over the states and the world is in chaos."
Professor Xu seemed to be quite dissatisfied with this result, and then changed the topic back to Lu Jing, "I can't tell whether he is a blessing or a curse, but he must have important things to do recently, so if he doesn't come to listen to the lecture, he won't come to listen to the lecture. Bar."
