Above the stars

At five o'clock in the morning, when Tang Bandi got up to practice, he found that the lights were still on in Chen Tianqi's room, but there was no sound of anyone talking or moving.

The Tang bandits ignored it and continued to deduce the "Imperial Court Sutra" in the courtyard.

"The Imperial Court Sutra" is a bit like Tai Chi, it has exercises and mental methods. Practice again every day and you will gain.

It's just that Tai Chi has been lost for a long time, and people in the world only know the skills but not the mind. Without the assistance of mental techniques, Tai Chi is just an ordinary skill for strengthening the body.

Tang Bandi had been practicing for about half an hour. Chen Tianqi, who was as pale as a bird's nest and had messy hair like a bird's nest, opened the door and ran out. He handed over a pile of papers in his hand and said eagerly: "Brother Tang Bandit, you stayed up all night last night. I have fifteen poems, please help me look at them. Help me figure out which one is better? I will give this one to the dean."

Tang Bandit looked surprised and asked: "Brother Chen stayed up all night just to write poetry?"

"Yes. Time waits for no one. If I don't send the poem here today, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to send it again."

"Why?"

"Think about it, because you were selected as a disciple by the dean, other students will naturally want to ask the dean to be their tutor. They will definitely make an effort this morning. It's because you gave me the inside information that I was able to take the lead. What if other people also know that the dean likes poetry, and others also send poems to the dean?"

"Besides, teachers will be assigned early this morning, and the system will assign them freely. The names of the teachers will be determined, and it will not be easy to change them at that time. No matter how big the dean is, he still has to take care of the emotions of other teachers. So, I only have this night."

"Hurry up and help me take a look. Let's see which one is better."

Tang Bandit held this pile of manuscript paper and felt that it weighed a thousand pounds.

He opened the first one at random, which read: I have no sleep tonight, so I lit a cigarette. Is cigarettes with me? Or should I accompany the smoke?

I opened the second one and it read: I'm hungry, I want to eat the fattest meat and drink a big bowl of wine. But, I am a poet. I can't be greasy, I want to stay away from life.

The third picture: There is no doubt that Dean Xuanyuan Mingjing is the most powerful dean in the world.

——

Tang Bandit sighed softly and said, "Brother Tianqi, the pear body style is no longer popular now. The dean said he hates the pear body style the most."

"Ah? Really?" Chen Tianqi was stunned for a moment, grabbed the stack of paper, rummaged through it, and said: "Look at this one, and this one. I imitated Tang poetry, written in five words and seven words. "

"How about this?" Tang Bandit gave him a sincere suggestion and said: "Give all these poems to the Dean of the Division, and ask the Dean of the Division to take them to the Dean and let the Dean take a look at yourself. Which one is your favorite? After all, everyone’s aesthetic preferences are different.”

"If I think it's good, the dean may not like it. If I think it's not good, the dean may not be able to put it down and appreciate it over and over again."

Chen Tianqi thought about it and felt that Tang Bandi's suggestion made sense, and said, "Okay, I will take it to the Dean of the Department in a moment, and ask the Dean of the Division to help me forward it to the Dean as soon as possible."

Tang Bandit patted Chen Tianqi on the shoulder and said, "I wish you success."

"I will definitely do it. The dean and I started the meeting with a poem, and used a masterpiece that has been handed down from generation to generation to make him develop a love for talents. If this matter spreads, will it be a good story between master and disciple?"

"Of course." Tang Bandi gave Chen Tianqi a thumbs up and said, "When I heard it, I thought it was extremely romantic. They are all in love with each other."

"It's done, you can practice. I'll go and clean up. I didn't sleep all night last night, so I need to tidy up my appearance."

"Go quickly, I'll wait for you to eat together." Tang Bandit said.

Students at Bailu Academy do not need to cook. There is a cafeteria in the academy that provides meals. Yesterday, the senior took Tang Bandi and the others to visit, and it looked pretty good.

After Tang Bandit took a bath, Chen Tianqi also packed up, using a cowhide bag to pack all his hard work overnight.

Bandit Tang felt a little sorry for that cowhide bag.

Sure enough, after arriving in the classroom, the students asked the dean to choose their own teachers.

"Dean, I also want to ask the dean to be my tutor."

"Dean of the Department, can you also help us ask the dean? We will thank you if it works or not."

"That's right. I think the dean should give everyone a fair assessment opportunity. If Tang Bandit can do it, so can we."

——

The Dean of the Division looked at the restless students in front of him with a smile, and asked aloud: "When Tang Bandit stood up to ask questions yesterday, did I ask them? Did I ask you if you had any other requests? ?”

"How did you answer me, remember? You said no. What's wrong? Now you're regretting it? After seeing Tang Bandit being accepted as a disciple by the dean, you got angry again?"

"Dean, we just want to work hard and strive for it."

"Yes, Dean, please understand our desire to make progress in practice."

"Dean, please help us. We know that life only has one chance."

——

"I can't help you." Si Yinchuan was still smiling, but his words were unceremonious and said: "I communicated this matter with the dean yesterday, and the dean said it was just this time, and it won't happen next time."

"."

Everyone's heart sank.

"Furthermore, the teachers assigned to you are all accomplished in one discipline and are excellent teachers who can maximize the potential of their disciples. If after the results come out, there are still students who want to change their teachers, then they are the opposite teachers. Such students will be expelled from the college if they are disrespectful and disrespectful to the college."

"You also know that Bailu Academy has a precedent of expelling students."

"."

Everyone was silent.

Is this a threat?

Si Yinchuan looked around and said aloud: "Think about it for yourselves, does it make sense for you to do this? Can the dean be a teacher for everyone?"

"I asked you yesterday about your response and said there was no problem. Now that the Tang bandits have succeeded, one by one they are eager to jump out and say that they want to fight for it too. Are you ashamed?"

"If you don't have the courage and wisdom to dare to be the first in the world, then don't be a follower or imitator. The first one will be praised, and the second one will be hated."

"Okay, now Zhinao will automatically assign a tutor to each student. After the assignment, everyone will go to their tutor to report." Si Yinchuan said aloud: "If there are still people who are unwilling to accept, you can come forward in advance. .I can have someone handle the withdrawal procedures for you."

"."

As a result, no one dared to stand up and ask the dean to be their tutor.

Tang Bandi glanced at Chen Tianqi and found that he was tightly grasping the cowhide bag placed on his thigh.

Si Yinchuan walked up to Tang Bandit and said with a smile: "Didn't the dean ask you to get up and go to his place today? Why haven't you gone yet?"

"I thought the director of the department still had something to explain."

"It's okay. Go quickly. Don't keep the dean waiting." Si Yinchuan said extremely considerately: "If anything happens, I will let other students tell you."

"Thank you, Dean." Tang Bandi said gratefully.

When he was about to get up and leave, Chen Tianqi suddenly handed the cowhide bag in his hand to Tang Bandit quickly, and then winked at him crazily.

Tang Bandit nodded to him and left with his cowhide bag.

Chen Tianqi felt relieved now that all the hard work was finally in vain.

When Tang Bandit came to the Grape Courtyard, the dean was sitting in front of the tables under the grape trees, drinking tea.

"Master." Tang Bandit saluted Xuanyuan Mingjing respectfully.

Xuanyuan Mingjing put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Come with me."

"Yes, Master."

Xuanyuan Mingjing took Tang Bandi to the backyard and opened the courtyard door, revealing an empty platform.

Surrounded by strange flowers and plants, and jagged rocks.

Next to it is a cliff with thousands of feet, the mountain wind is howling, and the clouds are rolling.

It's like being in a fairyland.

Xuanyuan Mingjing looked at Tang Bandit and said: "I heard that you have two swords, one named "Unyielding" and the other named "Fearless". Show it to me, use it with all your strength, and don't hide anything." "

"Yes, Master." Tang Bandi nodded.

I thought to myself, why did Master ask me to use my full strength and not hide my secrets? Could it be that he wanted to steal his own unique skills?

Then I thought, this is impossible, he is a great master.

How can you doubt your mentor?

Tang Bandit, you are worse than a beast.

If Xuanyuan Mingjing hadn't been there, he would have wanted to slap himself hard.

So Tang Bandit broke off a branch, gathered his thoughts, and calmed down.

Then, a sword flew out.

Tang Bandit put a lot of effort into the first and second swords of "Scroll of the Netherworld". He practiced day after day, persisted with ten thousand swords after ten thousand swords, and kept wielding them even in his dreams. sword

Now, he will show their full power in front of Xuanyuan Mingjing.

For your own honor.

Also for the glory of these two swords.

After displaying the two swords, Tang Bandi's body landed on the ground, and he stood respectfully in front of Xuanyuan Mingjing and said in a deep voice: "Master, please give me some advice."

"Yes." Xuanyuan Mingjing nodded and asked, "Do you have a sword?"

"I didn't bring it." Tang Bandi was stunned for a moment and said, "Should I go back to get the sword?"

"No need, a sword will do," Xuanyuan Mingjing said, "Use the swordsmanship you just showed to attack me."

"Master?" Tang Bandi looked at Xuanyuan Mingjing, what does this mean?

Let yourself take action against the master? Isn't this treasonous?

Is he testing his loyalty? After testing myself, will I deceive my master and destroy my ancestors?

"What? Are you not ready yet?" Xuanyuan Mingjing asked.

Tang Bandit gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, Master."

He did not bring a long sword, but he did have a dog-leg knife and the Xiuxue dagger given to him by Phoenix at his waist, but he did not take them out.

When I demonstrated my swordsmanship just now, I used branches. As soon as the master said to attack me, you should use the real thing. What do you want to do?

Tang Bandit held the branch in his hand, looking for an opportunity to attack Xuanyuan Mingjing.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Time passed by, and Tang Bandit stood there without moving at all.

It's not that he doesn't dare, it's not that he doesn't want to.

But it can't be found.

Yes, Xuanyuan Mingjing stood there so openly, with a calm and elegant posture, without any defense.

However, Tang Bandit couldn't find any chance to make a move.

He simply stood there, but it was like the setting sun on the stars, the river and the sea.

Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, Yishui spring breeze.

He became one with the mountains, the wind, the brilliant light, the plants, trees, insects, and fish.

You won't be able to find any flaws and won't have any desire to fight.

Bandit Tang first felt his body tense, as if his body was wrapped in a film of oppression with his hands and feet bound.

Soon, he began to feel short of breath, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.

Snapped!

The branch in Tang Bandit's hand fell to the ground.

He looked at Xuanyuan Mingjing with pain on his face, and said, "Master, I can't get out with this sword."
