In the world of no return, holding the sun and the moon

Chapter 139 Inner Court Assessment
In Shrek's outer courtyard fighting arena, the inner courtyard assessment was proceeding in the same order as before.

Meng Hongchen looked at Xiao Ming and Di Wanqiu whispering to each other on the side of the ring, and her pretty face couldn't help but puff up. But she didn't think much about it, she just felt a little unbalanced.

But Jiang Nannan, who was standing in the Shrek team, felt a little different. Seeing Xiao Ming communicating with other girls very skillfully, she started to have wild thoughts in her mind again.

Xiao Ming was a little afraid to answer Yan Shaozhe's question. While Xiao Ming was thinking of a solution quickly, Di Wanqiu said, "The process of my acquaintance with Xiao Ming was rather tortuous. If the dean wants to know more, he might as well check it out himself."

Yan Shaozhe looked at Xiao Ming in confusion. Xiao Ming's nervousness just now naturally could not be hidden from his eyes. However, since Xiao Ming was unwilling to say it, Yan Shaozhe naturally would not ask more questions. He just asked a question because he saw that the two of them were quite familiar with each other just now.

As the inner courtyard examination continued, the number of students on the field continued to decrease. In the end, the only one left who had not been assessed was Di Wanqiu, who was standing with Xiao Ming.

Di Wanqiu looked at the inner court disciples standing next to Zhang Lexuan, then glanced at Xiao Ming beside him, and then pointed at Xiao Ming and said, "I choose Xiao Ming for the inner court assessment."

As soon as Di Wanqiu finished speaking, everyone on the field looked at her with strange eyes. No one knew how strong Xiao Ming was now, but if she dared to challenge Xiao Ming, then she was also a big shot.

Zhang Lexuan on the side had no objection and nodded directly. Since Di Wanqiu had chosen to challenge Xiao Ming, then he should act according to the rules.

Zhang Lexuan signaled Xiao Ming to go up to the ring with a look. Looking at Di Wanqiu standing opposite him, Xiao Ming couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He had to stop this time, otherwise he would accidentally kill the auspicious beast and he would have no place to cry.

A sneer appeared on Di Wanqiu's lips. She saw Xiao Ming's hesitation, and when Zhang Lexuan announced the start, she did not hold back.

A dragon roar sounded, and six soul rings, two yellow, two purple and two black, appeared beside her. This dragon roar carried a certain amount of mental power and hit Xiao Ming directly. Such a small trick naturally could not affect Xiao Ming, but Xiao Ming was still in a daze thinking about countermeasures.

A dragon spear more than three meters long appeared in her hand. With her long golden hair, she was like a Valkyrie on the ring and charged directly towards Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming reacted at this time and then transformed into a spear. Facing the legendary golden dragon spear, Xiao Ming naturally did not dare to underestimate the enemy and directly stacked several layers of hardness for his flaming spear.

"Ding!"

The clear and crisp sound was like a huge bell, awakening everyone who had just been shocked by the golden dragon's roar. When they saw that Di Wanqiu could actually fight with Xiao Ming, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Under the ring, Zhang Lexuan watched the collision between Xiao Ming and Di Wanqiu and found that Xiao Ming's strength was not enough to suppress Di Wanqiu. She couldn't help but think that Xiao Ming should let Di Wanqiu win.

Although the golden dragon roar just now can affect mental power, Zhang Lexuan and Yan Shaozhe, two super Douluo, are directly immune to it. However, Zhang Lexuan still felt that Di Wanqiu was unusual.

Thinking about this, Di Wanqiu looked at Yan Shaozhe beside him and asked, "I didn't expect that there is someone who can fight with Xiao Ming without losing."

She knew Xiao Ming's strength. Ever since Xiao Ming came back and started practicing with her, Zhang Lexuan could clearly feel Xiao Ming's progress. With Xiao Ming's strength, he couldn't even defeat an ordinary Titled Douluo, let alone an ordinary Soul Emperor.

Yan Shaozhe naturally knew what Zhang Lexuan wanted to ask, so he answered: "Although Xiao Ming is suspected of letting the water go, that woman is not a pushover."

Hearing this, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but look sideways. As the dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe's words just now were undoubtedly affirming Di Wanqiu, which made Zhang Lexuan sense something unusual.

From the moment Di Wanqiu released his martial soul, Zhang Lexuan could clearly feel a powerful blood and energy appearing on the ring. Combined with the dragon martial soul, Zhang Lexuan began to wonder in his mind what Di Wanqiu's martial soul was.

On the ring, Xiao Ming swept his spear across, and extreme fire erupted from the tip of the spear, forcing Di Wanqiu to retreat, and then he just stood there, not knowing what to do.

This blatant letting was naturally seen by everyone in the audience. Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but hold her forehead. The good inner courtyard assessment had lost its meaning after being messed up by Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming let Di Wanqiu go, but Di Wanqiu would not let Xiao Ming go. Her fifth soul ring lit up, and an excited dragon roar resounded throughout the venue. A huge golden dragon instantly appeared from her body.

The terrifying aura of the golden dragon made Zhang Lexuan feel something was wrong. The girl's martial soul was even more powerful than Mu Lao's. This kind of powerful dragon-type martial soul was the first time Zhang Lexuan had seen it.

Yan Shaozhe on the side couldn't help but say: "Golden Dragon Martial Spirit, the ancestor of power, it can also be said to be the ultimate power."

After hearing Yan Shaozhe's explanation, Zhang Lexuan began to take Di Wanqiu seriously. Whether it was her current cultivation as a Soul Emperor or the expressiveness of her martial soul, she could be called a genius.

Xiao Ming swallowed his saliva and no longer hid. Seven soul rings appeared, six red and one gold. The sixth soul ring lit up directly, and a dazzling cross appeared on the ring.

Zhang Lexuan looked at Xiao Ming's soul ring and couldn't help but frowning slightly. Since Xiao Ming came back, he has never used his full strength, and his fighting spirit has always been careless. This is the first time Zhang Lexuan has seen him release soul skills like this.

Xiao Ming looked at Di Wanqiu who was rushing towards him, reduced the power of his soul skill a little, and then attacked Di Wanqiu directly.

Xiao Ming did not control his strength well. He did not know that Di Wanqiu had been strengthened shortly after he left Xingdou. Now that he had lowered the power of his soul skills, he was unable to stop Di Wanqiu at all.

Xiao Ming looked at Di Wanqiu who was tearing his soul skills apart with his bare hands, and a question mark appeared in his head. No, this was not the strength that a auspicious beast should have.

However, there was no time to think about it, Xiao Ming directly competed with Di Wanqiu in strength. Fortunately, he had the body of a Titled Douluo as a backup, otherwise Xiao Ming would have been a little embarrassed.

Xiao Ming estimated the time and found that it was almost time, so he stopped pretending. A red three-eyed golden lion appeared on the stage and rushed towards Di Wanqiu.

Di Wanqiu was slightly stunned and wrestled with the three-eyed golden lion, while a fiery red earth dragon appeared again on Xiao Ming's side.

Di Wanqiu could still barely fight against a three-eyed golden lion, but with the addition of the Scarlet Sky Fire Dragon, the pressure began to increase and he soon lost to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming's letting Di Wanqiu win was too obvious. If he had used this trick at the beginning, Di Wanqiu would have failed in less than two seconds. However, Xiao Ming had let Di Wanqiu win, so Zhang Lexuan did not investigate the reason why Xiao Ming let Di Wanqiu win, and directly announced that Di Wanqiu had successfully passed the assessment.

The inner courtyard assessment ended here. Although everyone saw Xiao Ming's slacking off, no one protested.

Xiao Ming looked at Meng Hongchen who was walking towards him and couldn't help but feel a headache. He and Meng Hongchen had only been in contact for two months at most, but he had no idea that the other party was more anxious than him.

When Meng Hongchen walked up to Xiao Ming, Zhang Lexuan stepped forward to help Xiao Ming out and said, "Okay, all of you follow me to the inner courtyard to register, and then I will close the inner courtyard environment for you."

Zhang Lexuan said, pulling Meng Hongchen away and said to Xiao Ming, "Will you come with us?"

Xiao Ming quickly shook his head and refused: "I will follow for a while, and then I will go home after we get to the inner courtyard."

Zhang Lexuan nodded. Meng Hongchen, who was standing next to Zhang Lexuan, became even more dissatisfied and looked at Xiao Ming with anger. Xiao Ming simply chose to ignore her.

Zhang Lexuan walked aside and said something to Yan Shaozhe, then led everyone to the inner courtyard. On the way, Meng Hongchen approached Xiao Ming and asked, "When are we going to be together?"

Xiao Ming's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Di Wanqiu on the side asked, "What do you mean together?"

Xiao Ming's forehead was covered with sweat: "You asked such a good question, I don't know how to answer you."

Di Wanqiu looked at Xiao Ming in confusion, then winked at Meng Hongchen. Meng Hongchen didn't want to pay attention to this guy who was trying to snatch Xiao Ming from him, so he turned around and ignored Di Wanqiu.

Seeing that Meng Hongchen ignored her, Di Wanqiu grabbed Xiao Ming's arm and pulled him closer to her. Meng Hongchen's face puffed up and she wanted to pull Xiao Ming back.

When Xiao Ming was being fought over by two people, Zhang Lexuan came over. Xiao Ming immediately looked at her for help, but Zhang Lexuan just gave Xiao Ming a look that told him to fend for himself.

Xiao Ming wanted to explain to Zhang Lexuan, but Zhang Lexuan simply chose not to listen and flew directly to the inner courtyard alone.

Xiao Ming quickly shook off the two of them and said, "You guys wait here for the boat to the inner courtyard. I'll go over first."

After saying that, without waiting for the two to reply, Xiao Ming also flew towards the inner courtyard, leaving the two standing there with their eyes wide open.

When Xiao Ming arrived at the shore of the inner courtyard, he saw Zhang Lexuan standing there alone, and Xiao Ming hurried over.

Seeing Xiao Ming coming, Zhang Lexuan asked coldly, "What is your relationship with Di Wanqiu? Why haven't you mentioned it before?"

Zhang Lexuan had never heard about how Di Wanqiu and Xiao Ming met, but she roughly knew when Di Wanqiu and Xiao Ming met. However, Xiao Ming had promised last time that he would not have any affairs this time. If Di Wanqiu had not come to her, she would probably still be kept in the dark by Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming quickly explained: "You misunderstood me. She and I have nothing to do with each other. It's just pure friendship."

Zhang Lexuan naturally didn't believe what Xiao Ming said. She simply chose to ignore Xiao Ming's explanation and kept silent with a cold face.

Xiao Ming struggled for a while and could only say: "Oh, this time when I went out, I accidentally saved her on the road. I didn't expect her to come to me. I don't have any feelings for her."

Zhang Lexuan then asked, "A hero saving a beauty?"

Xiao Ming hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and acknowledged the relationship. Zhang Lexuan just sighed when she saw Xiao Ming nod.

After a while, Zhang Lexuan asked, "Why don't you go back and wait for them to come find you?"

Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, then immediately said: "Then I'll go back to the attic and wait for you."

Zhang Lexuan said: "This explanation is unreasonable. When I come back, you should think of a reason."

Xiao Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least Zhang Lexuan agreed and gave him time to think of a solution.

When Xiao Ming returned to the attic, Ling Luochen immediately ran to Xiao Ming and said, "Xiao Ming, I feel like I'm about to break through."

Xiao Ming looked at Ling Luochen in surprise, and then immediately remembered the magic herb he had given Ling Luochen before. It should be the magic herb that accelerated her cultivation speed.

However, with the help of the Xingluo Spirit Pearl, it should not be difficult for Ling Luochen to break through level 90. Xiao Ming thought about it and decided that since Ling Luochen wanted to condense the second soul core at level 90, he had to start preparing for the eighth soul ring.

Ling Luochen has no strengths now, so Xiao Ming is thinking about letting Ling Luochen's second soul ring condense a spiritual soul core. There are many soul beasts with both spiritual and ice attributes in the sea.

However, this is still a big problem. After all, Ling Luochen's mental power is not outstanding. If it is only the soul beast that enhances her mental power, it may still be insufficient.

Seeing Xiao Ming not speaking, Ling Luochen became anxious and asked, "Xiao Ming, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Ming shook his head. Thinking about this incident again, Ling Luochen was just about to break through. According to Xiao Ming, it would take about another month.

"It's okay, I'm just thinking about your spirit ring problem in the future." Xiao Ming said.

Ling Luochen's eyes lit up a lot, and then he asked: "I feel that I can fight a hundred thousand year soul beast by myself, so just take me out with you this time."

This time Xiao Ming understood why Ling Luochen was so anxious. It turned out that he wanted to have some time alone with him.

Xiao Ming touched her head and said, "Okay, I'll take you alone this time."

On the other side, Zhang Lexuan led the few people who had just entered the inner courtyard to choose a place to live. At the end of the team, Di Wanqiu and Meng Hongchen walked together, and Meng Hongchen kept feeding Di Wanqiu bad knowledge.

Meng Hongchen talked about her relationship with Xiao Ming, and then said some things that Di Wanqiu didn't know. As he listened, Di Wanqiu couldn't help but touch his red lips, and then thought of Xiao Ming in his mind.

As Zhang Lexuan continued to arrange everyone in the inner courtyard, only Di Wanqiu and Meng Hongchen were left in the entire team.

Zhang Lexuan also had a headache about the arrangements for these two people. It was still unclear what the relationship between Di Wanqiu and Xiao Ming was. If she rashly arranged Di Wanqiu and Meng Hongchen together, would it disturb Xiao Ming?

Thinking about this, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but complain about Xiao Ming in her heart. If she hadn't concealed it before, none of these things would have happened now.

Seeing that Zhang Lexuan was not moving, Meng Hongchen said, "I want to live near Xiao Ming."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan glanced at Di Wanqiu. Di Wanqiu didn't say anything, but just nodded.

Now Zhang Lexuan was certain that she and Xiao Ming had no affair. She didn't believe it anymore. After returning, she would definitely ask Xiao Ming about it.

At the rate at which Xiao Ming was finding sisters for me, I was afraid that I wouldn't have much time alone with Xiao Ming soon. I would have to remind Xiao Ming.

Although Zhang Lexuan was helpless, she still accepted the suggestion of Meng Hongchen and Di Wanqiu, and took them to find a place closer to Xiao Ming's attic for them to stay.

After the two of them determined the location, Zhang Lexuan rushed directly to the attic. Meng Hongchen and Di Wanqiu saw Zhang Lexuan leaving and immediately followed.
