The Legend of the Demon Hunter

After receiving Xiao Zhu's affirmative answer, Murong Qiushui showed a happy smile on her face and said, "Brother Xiao Zhu is really straightforward. In this case, I am willing to give Brother Xiao Zhu an extra piece of information. Recently, a sect called Yan Huifeng in the southern part of Rhine Country sent envoys to Nowan Academy to invite Nowan Academy to hold a competition among young disciples. It is said that the Elders' Council has agreed. At present, eight students in Nowan Academy have obtained the Gold Medal of the Demon Hunter Association. It is rumored that the contestant against Yan Huifeng this time will be selected from these eight students."

"Which eight students?" Xiao Zhu had been busy helping Xia Shi obtain the gold medal and had not paid too much attention to the situation in the academy.

"Hehe, we already have four here! You know the other four too. They have all participated in the illusion trial. They are Ning Zhiwan, Letianyin, Bai Hao and Ying. Especially Ning Zhiwan, it is rumored that she has completed seven level three demon hunting missions. She will probably be the first student in this term to obtain the platinum medal. She is truly a monster!" Speaking of Ning Zhiwan, Murong Qiu Shui showed a look of jealousy on his face.

Hearing her say this, Xiao Zhu realized that Murong Qiu Shui didn't know that the two of them had already obtained the platinum medal. This was understandable. After all, their medals were awarded privately by the association's president Wan Yixing, and did not go through the regular certification procedures.

"So how many students will our academy select to participate in the competition with Yanhui Peak this time?" Xiao Zhu asked.

"I'm not sure about this, but I heard that Bai Hao and Ying were assigned important tasks by the academy and have not returned to the academy for a long time. I'm not sure whether they will participate in this competition. But with Brother Xiao Zhu's current strength, if he wants to participate in this competition, the only person he needs to worry about is Ning Zhiwan!" Murong Qiu Shui teased with a smile.

After bidding farewell to the Murong siblings, Xiao Zhu once again carefully examined the giant sword in his hand. Xia Shi said, "Brother, you don't seem to have a good impression of the Murong siblings. Why do you want to exchange the Dirong crystal core with them now?"

Xiao Zhu stroked the sword and said, "I don't know why, but when I first held the hilt of this broken sword, I felt a strong sense of familiarity, as if I had a connection with this giant sword, so I agreed to them."

"Origin? Can you still feel anything now?" Xia Shi asked doubtfully.

Xiao Zhu shook his head and said, "No, I just tried it a few times, and that feeling never appeared again. But this giant sword is extremely tough, and the material it is made of must be extraordinary, so I think this exchange is worth it."

"Brother, many powerful magical weapons have their names. Should we also give this giant sword a name?" Xia Shi asked.

Xiao Zhu was stunned by this question. He had never thought about naming weapons before. He asked Xia Shi, "Shi'er, do you have any ideas?"

Xia Shi thought for a moment and said, "I once heard a poem, 'Last night, the Greedy Wolf illuminated the Yue army, and early in the morning I lamented that the jade was broken and the orchid was burned.' How about naming this giant sword the Greedy Wolf?"

"Ganlang Sword...what a good name!" Xiao Zhu praised.

After a while, Xiao Zhu looked at Xia Shi and asked, "Shi'er, should we sign up for this competition with Yan Hui Peak?"

"Of course I'll go!" Xia Shi answered without hesitation.

"Why?" Xiao Zhu didn't expect Xia Shi to give such a straightforward answer.

"Actually, I've been thinking about this question the moment I heard Murong Qiu Shui say that just now. Although we are already high-level demon hunters, I think this is just the beginning of our demon hunter career. One day, we will become demon hunters as powerful as our teacher and Wan Yixing, so why not take advantage of our youth to gain more experience and broaden our horizons?" Xia Shi said with a blink.

Listening to Xia Shi's words, Xiao Zhu showed admiration on his face. He was very glad that Xia Shi was not affected by the tragic family experience, but always maintained a positive and optimistic attitude. He touched Xia Shi's nose and said, "Okay, we will participate, and we must go all out to win!"

three days later.

Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi received a notice from Yu Han at the same time, asking them to report to the Vice President Chu Enze. As Chu Enze's most capable assistant, Xiao Zhu understood that Yu Han was preparing for them to participate in the Yanhui Peak competition.

Led by Yu Han, Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi walked into the vice-president's office. In addition to the three of them, there were already four people in the room, namely Chu Enze, Ning Zhiwan, and Le Tianyin. What surprised Xiao Zhu the most was that the youngest elder Sun Yi from the Elders' Council was also there. Xiao Zhu had been in the academy for more than two years and had long known that the Elders' Council and the Dean's Department of Nuowan College were divided into two factions, and the two factions had always been at odds. Sun Yi was also an extremely radical person in the Elders' Council, and Xiao Zhu had never thought that he could actually be in the same room with Chu Enze and Yu Han.

But it can also be seen from this that this competition should be of great importance to Novan College.

Yu Han walked to Chu Enze's side and whispered, "Vice President, everyone is here."

Are they all here? Xiao Zhu couldn't help but wonder, where are the other four gold demon hunters? Although he already knew that Bai Hao and Ying were assigned special tasks, where are the Murong siblings? Why didn't they come?

But Chu Enze's next words answered his doubts: "Dear students, you should have heard about the invitation from Yanhui Peak to the competition! Nuowan College and Yanhui Peak have always been good friends, and both of them are based on slaying demons. But as two independent forces, there is also a competitive relationship between the two sides, and no one wants to fall behind. So everyone must not relax in this competition. Among the current students of Nuowan College, eight have won the gold medal so far, representing the strongest strength among the younger generation of the college, but Bai Hao and Ying have other arrangements, and the Murong siblings voluntarily gave up this competition, so the four of you will represent the college and participate in this competition."

Xiao Zhu thought about the Murong siblings exchanging the Dirong crystal core with him, and guessed that their initiative to give it up might be related to Murong Qiu Shui's Qianyu evolution.

Chu Enze continued, "The letter from Yan Huifeng mentioned that there are also four contestants participating in the competition this time, divided into two groups, with two people in each group. The two groups are named Tianluo and Disha, and the strength of the Tianluo group is stronger. In order to select the right team to deal with them, Elder Sun proposed that the four of you be divided into two groups, Ning Zhiwan and Le Tianyin in one group, Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi in another group. We will first have an internal competition to determine the winner. When the official competition comes, the winner will play against the Tianluo group, and the loser will play against the Disha group."

After hearing Chu Enze's words, the four of them looked at each other. Although they had many grudges and entanglements between them, they had never fought against each other as opponents, not even on the trial stage.

Xiao Zhu noticed that Letianyin's gaze suddenly fell on him, and there seemed to be flames burning in his eyes, while Ning Zhiwan's beautiful eyes were also looking at him, but her gaze was a little complicated.
