Chapter 162: The Fire Energy Hunting Competition Against Tiangang
The vast forest is filled with all kinds of monsters. Every once in a while, a monster with a fierce aura emerges from the forest without knowing whether to live or die. Rushing out, roaring at the formation of gryphon beasts in the sky, occasionally some flying monsters would chase after them. However, whenever these monsters approached the formation a hundred meters away, they would be attacked by the amber beasts. The tyrannical aura that surged out of the four of them was so frightened that they retreated.
Of course, there are also some powerful monsters that ignore the oppressive momentum of Hu Qian and the four men and forcefully attack the Griffin beast formation. At this time, Hu Qian and the three old men began to show their strength. Showing their shocking strength, every time they waved their hands, the powerful energy streaked across the sky like thunder. Immediately, everyone only heard a muffled sound, and those huge monsters exploded into blood all over the sky. , flying down.
Flying all the way, all kinds of ferocious monsters came one after another, but there was still no monster that could pass through the blockade of Hu Qian and the four people.
The students were both shocked and envious of this. Judging from the aura, almost most of these monsters have the power to compete with each of them. However, even so, they are still in the amber. The movements of Qian and others turned into blood mist. This kind of power is really coveted.
Xiao Yuan was quite normal about this. After all, he was someone who had fought against the powerful Dou Huang, so naturally he would not make a fuss like other students.
Like this, nearly an hour later, the flying speed of the gryphon formation finally slowed down. Feeling the slowdown, Xiao Yuan glanced ahead. However, except for There is a bottomless mountain stream at the foot, and the rest of the place is still endless green shade. Not to mention the inner courtyard, there is not a single person.
Xiao Yuan subconsciously released Ting Feng Yin, and after a moment, as expected, he sensed nothing.
"Land!"
The sharpness in Hu Qian's eyes gradually faded, and the tyrannical aura that had risen from his body quietly retracted. He waved to the flying formation with a smile, The ten gryphon beasts spread their wings and slowly landed on the opposite side of the mountain stream below.
As the gryphon beast formation landed safely, figures jumped down one after another at Hu Qian's signal, crowding the open space. Everyone looked around with confusion on their faces.
"Where is this? Is the inner courtyard right here?"
After landing, Hu Jia was the first to lose his temper and hurriedly asked Hu Qian, but the others could not hear This question also all focused on Hu Qian.
“The inner courtyard is not so easy to enter.” Hu Qian smiled meaningfully, and then under the gaze of everyone, he slowly walked forward for about ten steps, paused in his steps, and raised his head With a wave of his hand, a burst of energy shot out from his hand, and finally shot into the space in front of him.
Under the astonished eyes of everyone, a certain space that was hit by energy caused ripples like water waves. These ripples fluctuated rapidly, and the last one was a light silver fan that was seven or eight feet tall. The door appears out of thin air!
Everyone was shocked when they looked at the strangely appearing silver door. Obviously, they didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary place could actually hide such a mystery.
Under the gaze of everyone, the silver door opened slowly with a crisp sound. The scene behind the door was as dense as ever, and it seemed to be no different from the dense forest in front of you.
"Come with me."
Waving his hand, Hu Qian took the lead and walked towards the silver door.
Xiao Yuan knew that this was some kind of method of using the power of space, so he pulled Xiao Yu to follow him first.
Xiao Yan was a little curious about this magical method, so he stopped to observe for a while, but found that the back of his third brother disappeared after stepping into the silver door!
“What a strange method!”
This scene made Xiao Yan shake his head in amazement, but after thinking of the wrinkles in the space in front of the library, he suddenly became a little more enlightened. Those super The methods of the strong are indeed difficult to understand at their current level.
After being amazed in his heart, Xiao Yan pulled Xun'er and followed him.
After everyone, including the ten gryphon beasts, entered the silver door, the door slowly closed tightly. The last circle of silver energy ripples spread out, and the silver door gradually dissipated and finally disappeared completely. .
Stepping through the silver door, Xiao Yuan felt dazed. His feet were on the ground. He glanced forward, only to find that the scene in front of him was still the same as the previous forest. However, there At the entrance of the forest, two old men and several middle-aged men appeared at some unknown time. In addition, behind them, there were nearly twenty young people standing. Xiao Yuan glanced over them and found that behind them On their chests, they all wear a badge with a tower-like pattern engraved on it.
"Haha, old man Hu, you are always so punctual. I ask you to escort the new students, so I can rest assured. How are the new students this year?"
At this time, one of the two old men He could see the large group of people coming in and smiled at the leader Hu Qian.
"It's very good. The overall level is better than last year. The top ones probably have the potential to hit the top list." Hu Qian smiled when he heard this and said, "I didn't expect this year's round. You two old guys seem to be very tired when you are on duty."
"There is no way." The two old men shook their heads helplessly.
"Six of you, come here."
Hu Qian turned around and waved to Xiao Yuan and the other six. After seeing them approaching, he pointed at the two old men and said:
" These two are the elders of the inner courtyard. This is Elder Su and the other is Elder Qing. If you have any problems in the inner courtyard, you can come to them in the future. Haha, these six little guys are the top five in this year's selection. , The strength is good."
"Oh?" Hearing this, the two elders glanced at the six people with a little surprise, and said doubtfully: "At such an age, he has the potential to be in the top five. It is indeed much better than the last one, but why are there six of you in the top five? Isn’t it against the rules?”
“Ahem, there is no way. You will know by then that this matter must be in compliance with the rules. Don’t worry!”
Hearing this, Hu Gan coughed dryly and then spoke to assure himself.
"Well, okay."
Seeing Hu Qian say this, the two elders nodded and no longer dwelled on the matter.
"Oh, what a beautiful girl. It seems that there are two more people on the ranking of beauties in the inner courtyard." After the six Xiao Yuan people came out, the young man standing behind several middle-aged people People's eyes suddenly lit up, they whistled and laughed.
"Shut up, whoever talks nonsense, five days of tower repair time will be deducted!" Elder Su turned around and scolded, and those young people immediately stopped talking with playful smiles. Obviously, the so-called deduction of tower repair time They are extremely afraid of time.
After scolding the group of young people who dared not say anything, Elder Su turned his head and said slowly to Xiao Yuan and the new students: "You are all new here. I hope you can adapt to this place as much as possible. In that case , you will get great benefits. Look at these bastards. Although they passed the selection competition of the outer courtyard in the past years, they were only ranked at the bottom. But now it is only one year. I dare say that their strength is among you. He can definitely enter the top ten."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan was slightly startled and turned his eyes to those young people. After a moment of inspection, he realized that what Elder Su said was true. The strength of these young people was indeed great. Yes, although together they are no match for him, it is not difficult to deal with the students behind him.
Considering that these people were only ranked low in the selection competition in previous years, but now they have made such a huge improvement, it is enough to see how the strength of these people has improved by leaps and bounds after entering the inner court.
Fire energy, Qi Refining Tower, Fallen Heart Flame.
Thinking about the long-lasting memories in his mind, Xiao Yuan’s eyes flashed with a thoughtful look.
It wasn't until Elder Su raised his palm and threw out a large handful of pitch black chips, causing them to float in front of everyone, that Xiao Yuan came to his senses and reached out to hold it in his hand.
After taking the chip, Xiao Yuan suddenly felt a strange heat seeping out of it. He immediately lowered his head and looked at it carefully. On top of the chip, there was a transparent mirror. On this mirror, there was a There is a big red letter on it: "五"!
Is it a fire crystal card?
Looking at the chip in his hand, Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows. Just as he was about to put it back into the ring, he noticed that the group of young people standing behind the middle-aged man in front of him were looking at him with fiery eyes. The dark chip in the hands of the others showed unabashed covetous expression in their eyes.
Want fire power? What a coincidence, I want it too!
Xiao Yuan smiled slightly in his heart, and immediately put the fire crystal card into the ring.
"This thing is quite troublesome to explain. You will understand it naturally in the future. However, you only need to know one thing now, and that is to keep the chip in your hands as if it were a life-like good thing. Waiting for you Once you enter the inner courtyard, you will understand its importance to you! Of course, you may understand it by looking at the eyes of these guys."
At the end, Elder Su pointed at the group of young people. smiled. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan turned to look at Xiao Yan, then at Hu Jia and Wu Hao, and then nodded slightly.
Xiao Yan immediately understood and returned a look.
"Next, you need to enter the forest and successfully reach the inner courtyard at the end of the forest." Elder Su's fingers still stayed on the group of young people and said calmly, "And when you travel through this forest, be careful of them! According to the instructions The rules of the inner courtyard are that in this forest, they can attack you at will, which means they can attack you.
Remember, the number on the chip in your hand is very tempting to them. So they will use all means except killing to obtain the "fire energy" on your chip. This word will feel very familiar and cute to you in the future.
But now, you have to hide! Drive them or defeat them. As long as you don't get caught by them and successfully reach the inner courtyard, you will have the final reward. The sooner you arrive, the richer the reward will be!"
After that, Elder Su suddenly pointed his finger! Moving to the forest behind him, he continued:
"This is a trial before entering the inner courtyard. We also call it the 'Fire Energy Hunting Competition'!
Now, I announce that this year’s “Fire Energy Hunting Competition” has officially begun! Classmates, start your escape! "
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan came to Hu Jia and Wu Hao together.
"What are you going to do? "
When the two saw the two brothers of the Xiao family surrounding them, they subconsciously became vigilant and frowned and asked.
"I have an idea. I think you two should also be interested. Want to hear it? ”
Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
“Can you not listen?”
Hu Jia was silent for a moment and then asked in a low voice.
“No!”
Xiao Yuan’s smile became brighter and brighter, like a cunning fox.
"Damn, then you're still asking for a shitty opinion!"
Hu Jia said cursingly with a pretty face after hearing this.
But her body kept up with Xiao Yuan's pace of turning around and heading into the forest very carefully.
Wu Hao is not a fool. He has already judged some information from what Elder Su said just now. Knowing that Xiao Yuan probably wants to win over himself and Hu Jia to form a strong team, he will naturally not refuse. After all, If the so-called "fire energy" in this black chip is really important, with Xiao Yuan's help, he will definitely be more at ease than other students who want to rely on themselves.
The six people soon came to a secluded jungle and started talking.
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
Hu Jia asked carelessly. Anyway, she was no better than Xiao Yuan. Instead of resisting, it was better to cooperate.
Wu Hao on the side also cast a curious look.
"You have all heard what Elder Su said just now."
Xiao Yuan nodded when he heard the words, correcting the compiled memories into appropriate words in his mind, and soon it was Analyze it with a serious face:
"Since the fire energy in this black crystal card shows a numerical value and is so coveted by the students in the inner courtyard, it means that this thing is probably some kind of important resource, and its function is probably similar to currency. From a mere Judging from the fact that five points of fire energy can make them so coveted, the monetary value of this fire energy is also extremely high!
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, in the inner courtyard, the fire energy is so coveted! The consumption of fire energy is extremely fast. They have a great demand for this fire energy, and they have reached the point where they will not let go of any fire energy!"
At this point, the other five people nodded in agreement, and immediately Hu Jia couldn't help but asked: "So, let's find a way to reach the end quickly? Can't you fly? Otherwise, you can fly directly with us!"
Hearing this, aside Wu Hao couldn't hold himself any longer.
After some thinking at noon, he had already guessed that Xiao Yuan's wings were probably from the legendary flying fighting skills. No matter how advanced this kind of thing is, it can't fly with five people, right? Isn't that exhausting? It's okay for people to bring their own girlfriends, but how about bringing outsiders? hehe!
Besides, he also observed just now that although the students in the inner courtyard are strong, he may not be his opponent. He has already fainted before even a fight. What does it look like!
"There is no need. What my brother means is that since the students in the inner courtyard are in such need of fire energy, I am afraid that we can't do much with the fire energy in our hands after entering the inner courtyard. In this case, it is better to Take away the fire energy from the hands of the old students in the inner courtyard! After all, the rules don’t say that we can’t steal it from them!
Besides, we need these seniors to explain to us the specific function of the fire energy! Confused!”
Xiao Yan couldn’t stand listening anymore and immediately pointed out the hidden meaning of Xiao Yuan’s words.
"It makes sense! Moreover, our strength is not weak. Together, those old students may not be our opponents!"
Hu Jia suddenly understood after hearing this. He patted his smooth forehead, raised a smile on his lips, and said confidently.
"Well, if you don't have any objections, how about I command the team and share all the profits equally?"
Xiao Yuan saw Wu Hao on the side and nodded in agreement, too. He suggested with a smile.
“I have no objection.”
Wu Hao saw Xiao Yuan’s gaze and expressed his opinion directly without hesitation.
"Well, as long as you don't regret it, I don't have a problem with it, but you can't treat us as cannon fodder!"
Hu Jia naturally wouldn't refuse, but he still reminded him a little uneasily.
“Don’t worry, since I’m actively recruiting you, it’s for the sake of common prosperity. I won’t burn bridges by crossing the river.”
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded when he heard this, then raised his eyebrows, and then said :
“I sensed a strange aura. I think it’s the team from the inner courtyard. Follow me!”
After saying that, Xiao Yuan turned around and sprinted towards the forest behind him.
