Chapter 200 Everyone’s Attention
In the field of Fu Dao, Jia Xiuguang has always been the best among his peers.
Since he started practicing, he has always been able to easily read the talisman books that others have struggled to understand; he can always easily draw the talismans that others have struggled to copy; Even Professor Fu in Longmen Academy, who was always known for being picky, was willing to accept him as a student.
He always thought that he was God's favorite, possessing talents that countless people could not envy.
But today, the young man named Gu Xu in the ring shattered what he had always been proud of.
"Who did this guy learn from?" Jia Xiuguang frowned and thought, "Why are the talismans he drew different from those I have seen before?"
…………
< br>Qi Yan was still standing by the railing, recalling the gorgeous fireworks in the night sky just now.
It is dazzling when it blooms, but quiet and dim when it withers.
He could guess that this should be another new spell born from the "Jinghong Pen".
"It has been mentioned in the book that every owner of the 'Jinghong Brush' is extremely talented," Qi Yan thought silently, "Writing poems and paintings can be said to be used by them to understand the way of heaven to a certain extent. Means.
"In my opinion, Gu Xu's "Sapphire Case" is enough to eclipse all the Lantern Festival lyrics today - even looking back in recent years, I have never read it. There are better Lantern Festival poems than this "Sapphire Case".
“No wonder ‘Jinghong Bi’ would recognize him as its master.”
Before meeting Gu Xu, Qi Yan never dared to imagine that there would be such a person in this world. Able to combine outstanding cultivation qualifications, profound knowledge, and outstanding literary talent.
"Even if the banished immortal is still alive, it will only be like this!" He sighed softly.
…………
During the whole process of Gu Xu’s battle with Monk Jingru, Shi Xiaohan had been feeling nervous. She clenched her fists inadvertently, her heart beating like a deer scurrying around.
Especially when Gu Xu's figure was engulfed by the blazing "Feng Feng Fire Lotus", she didn't even dare to blink.
It wasn't until the flames dissipated and Monk Jingru fell into Luoshui that she finally breathed a sigh of relief, with a happy smile on her face.
"He won! He won!"
Seeing the unharmed young man in green shirt on the high platform, she cheered inwardly and jumped up high on the railing, hoping to see more clearly.
At this time, she finally had the time to recall carefully the song "The Sapphire Case" that Gu Xu had just written with fireworks all over the sky.
"The moth is a golden wisp of snow and willows, and the laughter is full of dark fragrance... The crowd has searched for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, the man is there, in the dim light...
"I can't believe that Gu Xu, that guy who only thinks about cultivation, actually has such a good literary talent! And he actually knows so many girls’ hair accessories! Did he study it secretly in private?
“Also, who does the ‘that person’ in this poem refer to?
"Could it be...me?"
Shi Xiaohan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
In the past few days, she had been troubled by the question "Am I falling in love with him?" She often thought about it at night and couldn't sleep.
On the one hand, she kept reminding herself that "men will only affect the speed at which this heroine draws the sword" and "only ordinary people will delay love and love. A real hero should pick up the sword and seize all the time to kill." "Ghost"; on the other hand, the name "Gu Xu" will appear in her mind if she is not careful - she wants to stay with him, want to share delicious food with him, and want to talk to him about her every day. I feel happy, angry, sad, and want to try my best to do something for him to help him cultivate into a saint before he is thirty years old.
Just when Shi Xiaohan was in confusion, Gu Xu on the ring just turned his head and looked towards her position.
His green shirt was fluttering, the corners of his mouth were slightly upward, and his eyes were as confident and calm as ever.
The moment the two people made eye contact, Shi Xiaohan felt a wave of heat rush through his body.
It is like a stone falling into a calm lake, causing ripples to ripple for a long time.
She immediately turned her head away from looking at him.
Afraid that he could read my thoughts.
.........
Shangguan Jin also recalled the battle just now over and over again in his mind.
With the magical power of "Heavenly Calculation", she can obtain the data and information in the battle, and naturally understand how terrifying the "Fengfeng Fire Lotus" that is as pure as a monk is.
After some calculations, she felt that even if she stood on the ring, she might not be able to withstand this move.
But Gu Xu, who was only in the third level of cultivation, was able to survive the "Fengfeng Fire Lotus" without any injuries.
In addition, he can accurately find every flaw of his opponent in the overwhelming flames, and use his body skills and talismans to dodge accurately.
This undoubtedly means that he has a calm mind, precise perception, and quick reactions. The most important thing is that he was able to suddenly comprehend a brand new spell during the battle.
“I think after today, no young people in Luo Jing City will dare to call themselves ‘geniuses’!” She said silently in her heart.
…………
Luo Chuan, the head of the Exorcism Department, still stood quietly, his expression unchanged.
Everything that happened in the ring was within his expectation.
In his opinion, with Gu Xu's qualifications and abilities, it is not surprising that he can do these things.
No need to make a fuss.
…………
It was less than a quarter of an hour before the clock struck midnight.
Gu Xu once again stood alone on the high platform, waiting for the next opponent.
The view from the high platform is excellent.
The colorful lanterns on both sides of Luoshui can be seen at a glance.
Looking around, the city of Luojing on Lantern Festival night looks like bejeweled and smeared women in palace attire, exuding an extremely beautiful and graceful aura.
Only a winner like Gu Xu has the time and leisure to catch a glimpse of her beauty from this perfect angle.
…………
Perhaps they were shocked by the thrilling battle just now. In the following period, no one came to the ring to challenge Gu Xu.
Gu Xu simply closed his eyes to rest and began to restore the true energy in his body.
Today he gained a great deal - not only did he find a way to break through the bottleneck, but he also used the "Jinghong Pen" to create a new spell "Thousands of Flowers Bloom on an East Wind Night".
His mood at the moment was the same as the song "The Sapphire Case" -
Searching, searching up and down.
On this lively Lantern Festival night, I suddenly looked back and finally caught a glimpse of the bright future.
The purpose has been achieved.
He was very satisfied.
He hoped that time would pass faster and that the challengers in the audience would hesitate for a few more minutes.
As long as he survives midnight, he can pocket the large amount of money and elixir rewards, and he will no longer have to worry about cultivation in the short term.
If the Da Qi court is generous enough, maybe he can buy a new house in Luojing City.
After all, as an official of the imperial court, and with a high probability of being awarded a title, it is necessary for him to have a mansion of his own.
Although the chief ministers like Chu Fengge and Shangguan Jin have been staying in the exorcism department for a long time, they also own their own properties in the prosperous areas of Luojing City.
It's just that he heard people talking in the restaurant that because the Luoshui Conference and the Long Night were approaching, the housing and land prices within the "Tianlong Formation" in Luojing City were rising rapidly.
…………
Eight minutes.
Seven minutes.
Six minutes.
Five minutes.
......
With only three minutes to go before midnight, someone finally stepped onto the ring along the suspended stairs.
Thank you to the helmsman for the 10,000 reward! Thanks to Ningshang Eyes for the 200 reward, thanks to Yaya Juanjuan for the 200 reward to Shi Xiaohan, and thanks to Yu Fengxiu and book friend 160611020527556 for the 100 reward!
