—------------------—
The cafeteria of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy provides meals at any time. After reporting, Xu Tianxi and Jing Hongchen did not go to report to the new grade, but went to the cafeteria to get lunch.
As the top institution of learning in the Sun-Moon Empire, the cafeteria of the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is quite rich, with no shortage of medicinal foods made from ingredients from hundred-year-old soul beasts. Long-term consumption can help improve cultivation and strengthen the body.
After finding a random seat to sit down and eat, Xu Tianxi discovered that someone was sitting in the empty seat opposite him.
The man had flowing white hair and a faint excited smile on his lips. He stared at Xu Tianxi with complex and eager eyes.
Xiao Hongchen.
"I haven't seen this guy for more than two months. His spirit power has improved a lot. The dean said that his spirit power has reached level 58. Now he is looking for me to get back at me and compete for the number one genius he has been dreaming of?"
Xu Tianxi thought to himself, "You've come just in time," and greeted him calmly.
"I haven't seen you for two months, but you are even more charming than before."
Xiao Hongchen nodded gently, with countless complex emotions flashing across his face in an instant, and said: "After dinner, go to the No. 9 Soul Guidance Training Field, I will wait for you there."
"Okay, okay." Xu Tianxi agreed readily, with a smile on his face.
I was thinking of trying my trick on you, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself. That's great.
"That's good. I'll wait for you there."
Xiao Hongchen seemed relieved to receive Xu Tianxi's affirmative answer. As he stood up, he emphasized, "Remember to come alone. This is a matter between us real men."
"Don't worry."
Xu Tianxi agreed casually, watched Xiao Hongchen's back as he left, and then continued to eat.
After a while, Xu Tianxi left the cafeteria after eating and drinking, and came to the No. 9 Soul Guide Training Ground.
This place is filled with equipment for various soul guide experimentation, and can withstand actual combat training of any sixth-level soul guide except fixed-type soul guide shells. There will usually be many people here.
But now, this place has been paid for by Young Master Xiao, and there is no one else in the huge venue.
Xiao Hongchen's figure fell under a shady grove of trees. He stood with his hands behind his back. The breeze blew through his hair, and his white hair fluttered in the wind.
"When did this guy learn to act profound?"
Xu Tianxi thought to himself that Xiao Hongchen's character had indeed changed a lot. He shook his head and laughed, then walked towards where the latter was.
Xiao Hongchen turned around as soon as he heard Xu Tianxi's footsteps. His face was tense and full of determination. He said coldly:
"You're here."
Seeing this, Xu Tianxi also became serious and said solemnly, "I'm here."
Xiao Hongchen looked around and said, "There's no one else."
Xu Tianxi spread his hands: "Don't worry, I'm a very particular person."
Xiao Hongchen nodded gently: "That's good, are you ready?"
"Be prepared at any time." Xu Tianxi smiled calmly, his aura sinking into his body, ready to summon his martial soul.
"good!"
Xiao Hongchen walked quickly towards Xu Tianxi and said something that petrified Xu Tianxi on the spot.
"Brother~! My dear brother!"
Kneeling on the ground with a thud, Xiao Hongchen hugged Xu Tianxi's thighs, his face filled with grief and anger, tears welling up in his eyes:
"You're finally back! I missed you so much! We've known each other for many years, please give me a hand!"
"There were too many people in the cafeteria just now, so I was embarrassed to say this. Now I kneel down for you... Considering that we were classmates, fought together, and shared the spoils together, please save my brother's life! You are the only one in our college who can save me..."
Xu Tianxi: "…"
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? How did I get a younger brother out of nowhere? What terrible things happened during my absence from the academy? Why did Xiao Hongchen, who used to be the boss, become like this?
Looking at Xiao Hongchen who looked like he was in imminent danger, Xu Tianxi's face, mouth corners, and eyes all twitched and became distorted. He thought, you acted quite well in the beginning, and if someone didn't know, they would have thought you were trying to compete with me, but this is the result?
What a waste of feelings!
Thinking of the other party's genius demeanor that had been played for a long time being shattered, Xu Tianxi pulled the corner of his mouth and said: "Can you get up first? Let's talk about it nicely. I'm a little scared of you like this..."
Xu Tianxi patted Xiao Hongchen who was hugging his thigh, and thought to himself that if the paparazzi caught you doing this, they would probably think that I had done something to you.
"No! I won't get up! Unless you promise me that you will help me stop that crazy sword maniac! He is simply not a human being! During the time you were away, I have been in the school infirmary for five times! Five times!"
Xiao Hongchen staggered and cried, completely losing his former high spirits. He looked dispirited, as if he had been tortured a thousand times.
"Sword maniac? Are you talking about Old Ji? He's the opponent the dean arranged for you. No wonder you've become like this..."
Xu Tianxi thought to himself, "That's not surprising," and then asked, "How many times did you fight him?"
"Four times!"
"Then why did you go to the school infirmary five times?"
"Last time it was me who asked Meng to give me two swords! I will go in by myself, so he won't have to do anything!"
Xu Tianxi was stunned: "...(⊙o⊙)..."
You, Xiao Hongchen, are really a genius!
Patting his forehead, Xu Tianxi laughed and shook his head, not knowing what to say for a moment; "... You, didn't you eat the immortal product And absorb your soul bone? It's fine if you can't beat him, but why are you so scared? Aren't you ashamed?"
Xu Tianxi thought to himself, I have been fighting with Ji Juechen for almost a year. Ji Juechen is getting better and better at fighting, and his sword will is getting stronger and stronger. We often fight and go to the school clinic. Why don't I think the sword maniac is that scary? It's just that I am a little mentally broken by the fight.
Xiao Hongchen's fighting spirit is indeed not good enough, he needs more practice.
"You, you don't know. The first thing he told me when he came to me was that my grandfather gave him a ten-thousand-year soul bone and asked him to help me train in actual combat all year round. I thought that my cultivation had greatly improved and that the Soul Emperor was just so-so, but I didn't expect..."
Xiao Hongchen was about to cry, his nose twitching: "His sword intent is too terrifying. I can't control the soul guide cannon after being enveloped..."
"At the time I told him, if you have the guts, give me enough time to prepare, and we'll both use our ultimate moves to clash. And then I, I..."
"Okay, stop talking. I know how miserable you are..."
Xu Tianxi directly interrupted Xiao Hongchen's words, gave him a thumbs up, his face full of speechlessness and even a little admiration.
Giving Sword Maniac enough time to charge up his ultimate move shows that you are extremely brave.
When your three-legged golden toad is exhausted of soul power, it's probably just the explosive power of a high-level Soul Emperor. When the sword maniac is fully charged... his attack power starts at Soul Sage. I don't know if he can get close to Soul Douluo. I don't even dare to give him that much time.
"It got even scarier later. After fighting him many times, I realized that he had already realized the realm of semi-finished products. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't defeat him..."
Xu Tianxi rubbed his brows, as if he could imagine from Xiao Hongchen's crying how he was beaten by Ji Juechen: the poor three-legged golden toad was played around by the invincible Ji Juechen...
At this moment, Xiao Hongchen's crying was still echoing in my ears.
"Brother, that ungrateful guy Meng has already run away, you can't run away again, help your brother..."
Hearing this, Xu Tianxi's expression became more and more exciting: "Your biological sister ran away, so shouldn't I, your newly recognized brother, run away even more?"
"Although I have also made great progress in strength during this period, I don't really want to see that guy. It's not that I can't beat him, but mainly because of my martial spirit...right? You also know that it is inconvenient to show it to the public..."
Xu Tianxi attached great importance to confidentiality. So far, only five people from the Sun-Moon Empire, namely, the three Hongchens, one Kong and one Xuan, knew that he possessed twin martial spirits.
Ji Juechen is not a big mouth, but there is no need to demonstrate to him.
The two soul ring skills of his Dark Gold Black Tortoise Shield are not the innate abilities of the Ice Emperor, but new soul skills formed by the Ice Emperor infusing his own essence into them and stimulating the potential of the martial soul itself.
Because both the martial soul and the soul ring are too powerful, the effect of a single soul skill is not enough to summarize its power, but they all act on the group, and one of them can be used for group defense.
Jing Hongchen is too powerful, and Meng Hongchen is completely restrained by the extreme ice. After much thought, Xiao Hongchen seems to be the most suitable choice.
But Xu Tianxi didn't expect that before he even fired a shot at him, she knelt down and called him brother, and asked for help without any scruples.
Xiao Hongchen just shook his head and said, "Brother! We are a golden pair who travel the world together to try our luck. How can the relationship between Meng and me compare to ours? Don't you think so?"
As he said this, he vowed: "As long as you help me stop that sword maniac, I will do anything!"
Hearing this, Xu Tianxi's eyes stirred a little: "It seems that... I don't have anything that needs your help for the time being."
Xiao Hongchen jumped up: "No! You have! If you are interested in that guy Meng, I can help you... mmm..."
Xu Tianxi tightly covered the mouth of this funny guy and said unhappily: "Don't give me that. If you make her angry, you will be hunted down by the whole school! I am a serious person and I am not interested in those things."
Xiao Hongchen panted heavily and said, "You are not interested in her... That's fine, I can think of introducing you to... someone else..."
The corners of Xu Tianxi's mouth twitched wildly: "I think you'd better not introduce it..."
Just as Xiao Hongchen was rushing down the road to death and the black lines on Xu Tianxi's forehead were becoming thicker and thicker, a scream came from far above their heads.
"Brother, Tianxi, what are you doing here? Grandpa asked us to train with the seniors."
The two of them turned their heads suddenly, and Xu Tianxi took back his hand that was covering his mouth. Xiao Hongchen's expression changed at the speed of light, and his bitter expression disappeared completely.
Meng Hongchen was seen descending from the sky in a soul guide propulsion device, and with him came seven young men who looked to be around twenty years old, all wearing the school uniform of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy.
Each of the seven young men exuded soul power fluctuations above that of a Soul King. The first one was very tall and sturdy, with short hair and a spirited look. Xu Tianxi and Xiao Hongchen looked at this man with a serious look.
The man who came was Ma Rulong, the only master in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy who had cultivated to the level of Soul Emperor and sixth-level Soul Instructor under the age of twenty.
Although it seemed that he would soon be caught up by Meng Hongchen at level 59 and Xiao Hongchen at level 58, at least for now, he was the only Soul Emperor in the team.
"Hello, seniors." Xu Tianxi and Xiao Hongchen said.
Ma Rulong did not dare to neglect it, and led a group of team members to nod and smile at these two geniuses who were the greatest in the past thousand years:
"Hello, I look forward to your guidance in the upcoming battle."
Meng Hongchen landed beside the two of them and whispered, "Grandpa means that we fight freely."
Xu Tianxi asked as if to confirm: "Three of us against seven?"
Meng Hongchen nodded: "Almost."
"I can't use too many soul masters' skills. It's a bit difficult to fight three against seven... Come on together. I'll control the invisibility and you guys attack."
Xu Tianxi thought for a moment, and the four rings of his Phantom Moon Mysterious Pupil rose simultaneously. He released his second soul skill Mirror Flower and Water Moon silently, and the three of them immediately disappeared from the sight of Ma Rulong and others.
"Old Xiao, it's time for you to prove yourself and avenge your previous shame! If you win this fight, I'll help you fend off Old Ji. If you lose, I'll train you with him."
"Old Xu, just wait and see! This time I'm going to beat them all into a hornet's nest! It feels so good to be invisible. If I could be invisible, why would I be afraid of that guy Ji Juechen..."
After a few breaths, Ma Rulong and the other seven clearly saw that more than a hundred level five soul guide rays appeared out of thin air and shot out, as if they were going to drown them.
"Everyone be careful!"
