Don’t Show the Son

Chapter 235 This is Friendship!

Nancheng, on the school grounds.

After several days of competition, 700 of the 800 people who participated in the small competition have been eliminated, leaving only 100 people who can participate in the next few rounds of competition.

There will be two rounds of competition this morning and afternoon.

In the first round, out of one hundred people, fifty people will be eliminated.

In the second round, half of the fifty people will be eliminated, leaving only the last twenty-five people to participate in tomorrow's competition.

After the three rounds of competition, there are not many people left who are still eligible to participate in the competition. There is no need to reserve another whole day for drawing lots. Instead, draw lots on the spot at the entrance of the school grounds.

A young man looked joyful and asked his companion beside him, "The one I drew was number 41, how much is yours?"

His companion showed bitterness and sighed, "Number Two..."

"Haha, I got the number 30, not the ground level."

"Who is No. 17? It seems to be Miss Zhao's husband-in-law. When it's over, I won't be able to get up or down in the sky..."

...

After the lottery, naturally some people are happy and some are sad.

In the stands next to the first and second school grounds, Lin Xiu and Lingyin had already arrived. Today's competition was relatively easy for them, but tomorrow it will not be so easy. Tomorrow's competition will be more successful In the encounter between the rank and the ground rank, even if it is only a loss, the path of the small competition will end here.

And their number of draws will also be rearranged according to the performance of these competitions. No one knows what kind of opponent they will encounter at that time.

After a while, Murong Yu and the concubine, who was usually dressed in ordinary clothes, came from a distance.

The imperial concubine is not wearing palace attire today, she is wearing a plain white dress with only a few strands of tassels embellished, and she does not wear any of the exquisite hair accessories in the palace. She only uses a simple hairpin, which looks like Like an ordinary little woman.

It's just that ordinary little women are not as pretty as her.

Nor her temperament.

She stood with Shuangshuang and Murong Yu, and she couldn't tell they were more than ten years older than them. Seeing the look of the imperial concubine, Lin Xiu knew that it was right for Murong Yu to see her. , cannot be missing.

Lin Xiu asked Murong Yu, "How many lottery did you get?"

Murong Yu said: "Eleven."

After watching the game for several days, Lin Xiu knew all the low-level seeds. Murong Yu got the number 11 in the lottery. The luck can be good or bad.

If you win the ground rank, your luck is naturally not good.

However, No. 11 is Wei Yun of Duke Wei's mansion. His ability is the same as that of Princess Minghe. The wind has a natural advantage when it comes to getting angry. That is, Wei Yun is stronger and has a stronger ability to control fire. The advantage, under the absolute strength, will be wiped out directly.

The imperial concubine asked her: "Can you win?"

Murong Yu smiled and said: "I'm not sure, try my best, anyway, I've already got a place in the Grand Competition, just try to get promoted to the rank before the Grand Competition."

Murong Yu's idea is correct, but if he can enter the top ten, or top twenty, in the next six months, the imperial court will focus on training.

Lin Xiu glanced at Murong Yu and asked, "Have you reached a bottleneck in your cultivation of different arts?"

Murong Yu nodded and said, "It's just that there is no opportunity for a breakthrough."

Her cultivation talent is really good, not much better than Minghe and Lingyin, even better than them. After all, she can't practice dual cultivation. She can practice to this level at this age. When she grows up for a few more years, Tianjiao There must be a place for her on the list.

Lin Xiu made a symbolic gesture of reaching into her bosom, took out the last fifth-order primordial crystal, handed it to her, and said, "There's only this one left, try it."

Murong Yu looked at this fifth-order primordial crystal, slightly astonished.

In the past two months, my father and grandfather have also bought the fifth-order Yuanjing at a high price. The bid has even reached 150,000 taels, but they have not bought even one. come out.

She did have a strong desire to break through, so she didn't refuse, but said: "I will write a letter to my family and ask my father to send one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver here."

Princess Minghe heard it not far away, feeling a little ashamed.

The woman directly asked for 150,000 taels, and Lin Xiu only counted her 100,000 taels for one yuan crystal. She really took good care of her. If he also counted her 150,000 taels, wouldn't she owe him 600,000 taels? Two, on the basis of four hundred years, there will be another two hundred years...

Hey, she still needs to use some of her monthly pocket money. If calculated in this way, it won't take a thousand years, and I'm afraid he won't be able to pay off his debt at all.

This made her worry again.

The imperial concubine originally wanted to say that she would return the 150,000 taels to Lin Xiu for Xiao Yuer.

Every month, she will distribute a large amount of money from Ningxiangzhai, and she didn't have any big expenses in the palace, so she should have saved a lot by now.

But thinking that her money was also given by Lin Xiu, she was a little bit speechless.

Using his money, paying back his money, what is this...

But Lin Xiu waved her hand to Murong Yu and said, "No need, I owe you a favor, this Yuanjing, just treat it as my repaying your favor."

Murong Yu was thinking back, when did Lin Xiu owe her a favor?

The two have only known each other for a day.

Could it be that he was talking about my aunt?

This is an opportunity for my aunt and the Murong family to reconcile. If we talk about favors, she and the Murong family should owe him. What identity and position does he use to say this?

But at this moment, she didn't have time to think about it.

If she can't break through, she has no certainty of winning the real level.

So she walked to a corner, closed her eyes and took a breath, adjusted her state, and made preparations before breaking through.

When Lin Xiu walked to the other side, Princess Minghe asked in a low voice, "Who is she?"

Although Lingyin and Ning'er didn't ask Lin Xiu, they all looked over.

Lin Xiudao: "Her name is Murong Yu, she is the niece of the imperial concubine, and she should be your cousin."

Murongyu's grandmother and Princess Minghe's grandfather are brothers and sisters of the same mother. The two of them naturally have some relatives and some stories. Speaking of it, it seems that their talents in different arts are passed down from generation to generation.

Emperor Xia and the imperial concubine's generation didn't have any supernatural abilities, but Princess Minghe and Murong Yu were both talented.

Princess Minghe looked at Murongyu, and muttered, "If a Yuanjing can't break through, it will owe others 150,000 taels of silver. It's better to practice on your own. There's still half a year left before the Grand Competition..."

For this matter, she has the most power to speak.

As soon as her words fell, there was a breeze blowing by her side.

Although it was not yet noon at this time, the sun was rising and it was already a little hot. This breeze brought coolness to everyone.

The breeze was blowing, and most people didn't notice anything unusual except for comfort.

Song Yuzhang looked back, and finally locked his eyes on a girl in the corner of the stand. Surprise appeared in his eyes. She actually made a breakthrough in the school field, and she still had the ability of the wind element. Although she didn't know who her opponent was, it was foreseeable. Yes, that person is going to be unlucky.

Princess Minghe stared blankly at Murong Yu in the corner, and murmured: "Is this a breakthrough?"

She must be feeling wrong.

How could someone break through with only one crystal.

impossible.

Absolutely impossible.

The number of crystals used to break through is actually a matter of luck. Lin Xiudao: "Some people are lucky and some are not. This is normal. When Lingyin broke through, only one was used."

"do not talk……"

Princess Minghe stayed away from Lin Xiu silently, and sat in a certain position with a melancholy expression on her face.

Lin Xiu walked up to Murong Yu and said, "Congratulations."

Murong Yu also said to him: "Thank you."

At this time, the drums on the school field sounded, and the competition had already begun.

The one-hundred-person competition is still divided into ten schools, and each school needs five competitions.

Just when the competition started, a dramatic scene occurred on the first school field.

The five people drawn to the first school field all declared abstention.

Zhao Lingjun, Qianye Lin, Zhang Ren, Song Yuzhang, and Qin Wan will advance directly to the next round.

With the exception of Qin Wan, the other four were all in the top 20 of the previous Tianjiao list. After three years, their strength must be stronger. , must also be the result of being crushed.

As for Qin Wan.

So far, she is still shrouded in a veil of mystery in people's hearts.

That mysterious ability and her opponent's bizarre performance on the school field made many people fear her, even more than the other four.

When Zhao Lingjun's opponent chose to abstain, the other four also resolutely abstained.

On the second school field, Zhang Yi from the Zhang family was the first to compete, followed by Lingyin and Ning'er.

In the third school field, Murong Yu was the first to play, and she was fighting against a genius from the Wei family.

The attention of Lin Xiu and the imperial concubine was also on this school field.

Wei Yun's attack was a powerful killing move. He summoned a huge fireball and flew towards Murongyu. Although she dodged it with her flexible body skills, after the fireball landed, there was a violent explosion. The whole competition The area is burning with raging flames.

Only where Murong Yu was standing, the flames couldn't get any closer.

A wall of wind was in a stalemate with the spreading flames, and no one could go any further.

The next moment, the sky suddenly rained fire.

The imperial concubine looked anxious, and she clenched her skirt tightly with both hands. Lin Xiu comforted her and said, "Don't worry, empress, she won't lose so easily."

Before he finished speaking, the burst of fire rain had already been blown to pieces by the strong wind. On the school grounds, Wei Yun's expression became a little more dignified. He raised his hands flat, and the burning flames on the ground soon It condensed into a huge flame tornado, roaring towards Murong Yu.

Murong Yu stretched out her hand, and a tornado quickly formed in front of her.

On the school grounds, the flame tornado and the wind tornado met, and both were annihilated, sending out violent fluctuations in energy.

At this time, Murong Yu had turned into an afterimage, attacking Wei Yun.

In addition to being an earth-level wind magician, she is also an excellent warrior.

With Wei Yun's carelessness, she was already within ten feet of her.

His complexion changed slightly, and a wall of fire immediately appeared in front of him, and the wall of fire greeted Murong Yu actively, while at the same time, he himself quickly retreated.

However, the next moment, a gap appeared on the wall of fire.

Murong Yu split the wall of fire with his sword, and the tip of the sword pointed at Wei Yun's throat.

The flames on the school field were gradually extinguished, Wei Yun raised his hands and said helplessly: "I lost..."

On the stands, Princess Minghe also had a sad expression.

Lin Xiu listened to her muttering in a low voice: "What kind of broken ability, being defeated by water, ice, and wind, obviously breaks through first, but can't beat others..."

Wei Yunjin has entered the earth rank longer than her, it has already been a year, but he is not the opponent of Murong Yu who just broke through.

If she met Murong Yu, she would definitely lose, and she would lose even more directly.

This made her feel that the power of fire was useless, as if anyone could restrain it.

They also awakened the magic of fire, and Wei Yun's failure made her feel sad.

Murong Yu won, the imperial concubine was very happy, other people in the stands were also surprised by Murong Yu's performance, Daxia seemed to have produced another incredible genius.

Only Lin Xiu noticed Princess Minghe.

And only he knows that, despite how arrogant she is usually, her self-esteem is actually weaker than anyone else's.

Wei Yun lost, she must have thought of herself.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Lin Xiu felt some pity in her heart.

Water and fire are actually not weak, and their destructive power is amazing, but they are not suitable for singles.

He looked at the gloomy Ming He, and his heart softened.

He can't see girls like this the most.

Once she did this, Lin Xiu's heart softened.

As long as he was soft-hearted, he wanted to help her.

Or, when the time is right, give her another ability?

As soon as this idea arose, Lin Xiu forcibly suppressed it.

No, no, no, they are friends, you can't do this between friends.
