The God descended to earth and led his son to chase his wife
Chapter 17 Team Building, First Steps in Refining
Here Lu Wan was in deep sorrow, while Shangguan Wan'er was...
"Royal sister, who should we team up with? I heard that the disciples of the academy have set up a bet to bet on who among you will be the first in the freshman competition..." Shangguan Qing hesitated.
"Oh? Who are they?" a clear male voice asked.
"I heard that the biggest bettors are Sikong Yue and Jin Xinxin, followed by the emperor's sister and Yuchi Xuan, and finally Feng Qing..." Shangguan Qing said
"Gone?" another male voice asked doubtfully.
"That's all." Shangguan Qing looked at the two twins in front of her, Minglang Yue and Minglang Kang, and continued to say to one of them, "Although you are the seventh-level spiritual master with the highest spiritual power level among the freshmen this year except Feng Qing, you are an alchemist. Everyone knows that alchemists are not very strong. Do you still want people to bet on you to win?" Shangguan Qing looked at the two of them with disdain.
One person touched his nose. He just heard what Shangguan Qing said. He was really unhappy. He wanted to go and make a dish for himself... He smiled and said in a gentle voice, "Xiao Qing'er is right."
She got a cold stare and a pot of boiling hot tea from the other party. Shangguan Qing glared at the man.
"Qing'er, don't be rude to the Grand Alchemist. Minglang Kang is already a yellow-level alchemist, and everyone respectfully calls him the Grand Alchemist. How can you act like this? Besides, they are your uncle's sons and our elders..." Shangguan Wan'er looked at the two people below who looked the same but had different personalities, and said sternly to Shangguan Qing.
"I understand, sister," Shangguan Qing pouted and snorted.
"It's okay. When you are out, you don't have to stick to these red tapes. Now we are all freshmen, and maybe we will become brothers in the same school in the future! Then let's talk about our own things..." The brothers Minglang Kang and Minglang Yue smiled at each other, and each of them caught a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes. They thought to themselves: "We don't want to be treated as elders!"
Ming Langyue couldn't help but shook his head and chuckled.
Although the twin brothers look the same, they have very different personalities.
The elder brother Minglangkang is introverted and deep, with a reserved demeanor, gentle and polite to others, but not good at speaking. Whenever he goes out, most of the time it is his younger brother who speaks for him.
Minglang Kang was devoted to his cultivation. He wore a pure white robe, like an immortal descending from the earth, and exuded a faint medicinal fragrance, giving people a feeling of being extraordinary and otherworldly. However, he was willing to fall into the vortex of emotions and hide his deep love tightly. My brother was extremely talented and had already reached the realm of a yellow-level alchemist and a seventh-level spiritual master among his peers.
In contrast, his younger brother Minglangyue is sunny and cheerful, humorous and witty, and has his own firm opinions. He is not afraid of failure and is brave enough to try new things. The passion in his eyes is unreserved.
My brother is obviously a serious person, but he is always willing to follow someone and get beaten and punished. Looking at Shangguan Qing's unsympathetic look, he shook his head and said that my brother had to bear it!
Looking at the woman sitting at the head of the table, she smiled bitterly again and again. I was no different... My brother was waiting, and I was waiting for rejection again and again. Thinking back to the first time we met as children, I fell in love with that proud woman...
A cold yet majestic voice interrupted Minglang Yue's thoughts and said, "Okay, they bet on theirs and we win ours. Do you two have any suggestions?" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Minglang and the twins.
The two looked at each other, and Minglangyue said, "We have discussed it. Brother will take Ru'er to protect you. I will go to other teams to see their strength." He looked at Shangguan Wan'er with burning eyes.
Shangguan Wan'er dodged slightly and then thought: "Well, this is also good."
"What about Sikong Yue? Sister, aren't we going to team up with her?" Shangguan Qing asked
Shangguan Wan'er took Shangguan Qing's hand and said in a cold voice: "Although we have merged into one country, people's hearts are not like that. Sikong Yue is the daughter of the clan leader and a beastmaster. She will definitely not team up with us. And there must be many people who want to team up with her. What we need to think about now is to find other capable senior students from the outer courtyard to team up with."
Shangguan Qing nodded blankly.
This way——
A woman in a light purple dress squatted down and teased the spirit beast. Her slight smile seemed like a fairy's pity. She gently plucked the bell on her fair wrist, and a pleasant voice rang out: "Where should we go?" It seemed like a question, but there was no one else in the room.
The spirit beast stood up from the ground, shook its snow-white hair, and looked at the woman in front of it with its light blue eyes, reflecting the woman's charming face. This person was Sikong Yue, an eighth-rank beastmaster.
The woman laughed happily and said, "I know," then she picked up the beast and walked out of the room.
the other side--
Yuchi Jin touched the jade fan and said anxiously: "Royal brother, they are almost forming a team, and you are still sitting here drinking tea!"
Yuchi Xuan said slowly, "Don't worry. No matter how fast they form a team, if the team's ability is low, they will still lose." He narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuchi Jin and said, "I'll give you a list. Go build good relationships with them in the next few days and pull them into the team."
Yuchi Jin took the list, looked at the people on it thoughtfully, and smiled, "Yes, brother, I'll take care of this little thing!"
Then he paused and said, "But...Royal brother, where is Jin Xinxin?"
"Don't worry about him," said a calm voice. "Although the two countries have merged, he is a member of the sect and is not subject to the constraints of the royal family. As long as he does not disrupt my plan, it will be fine."
——Green Bamboo Pavilion on the Mountain Peak in the Inner Courtyard——
A series of tinkling sounds were heard, accompanied by a series of curses that were full of vicissitudes of life yet full of energy.
Old man Ouyang sat under the bamboo forest, drinking tea angrily and looking at the man wearing a black and gold mask sitting opposite him: "Mr. Su, it's been three days! When are you going to bring my disciple in?"
Su Yichen, wearing a mask: "..." Ever since entering Qingzhuxuan, old man Ouyang would ask his disciple when he came in every day.
He said lightly, "It will take at most half a month." Ten days later, the freshman competition will be held, and after the competition, they can be assigned to the inner courtyard according to their abilities. Su Yichen played with the teacup in his hand and looked down at the mountain, as if he could see the person he thought about day and night through the layers of mountains in front of him.
"How many times have I told you! Keep your spiritual energy restrained! Keep it restrained!"
"Refine it first! Refine it!"
"How can you be so stupid! It's just a useless thing!"
Waves of insults rang out from the yard one after another.
An aggrieved male voice said, "Master, I have only practiced for three days." Yuchi Lin rubbed his sore arm pitifully. He had read thousands of books but had never experienced anything, so it was always just talk. Looking at the pile of scrap metal in the corner of the courtyard, he silently encouraged himself, I can do it!
Su Yichen looked at the master and the apprentice, and felt that Yu Chilin was really pitiful. He had only studied for three days when Senior Ouyang asked him to start practicing spiritual products. However, this kid's talent for refining weapons was really good. In three days, he went from being a person who could only talk on paper to being able to refine magic weapons of grades one to ten, and also rose from the second level of Jindan to the fifth level of spiritual master. Su Yichen shook his head lightly and continued to stare into the distance, muttering: "Wanwan, how long will it take you to recover this time?"
——Outer Courtyard——
A series of noisy voices rang out in the crowd, and everyone was discussing: "Hey, have you decided which freshman you want to team up with?"
Someone said loudly: "I think Yuchi Xuan is pretty good! Look at his big body, he must be a powerful martial artist! Those others are either sissies or pretty boys who look weak and frail, how can they compare to him!"
Someone immediately objected, "Could he possibly be able to practice both spiritual and martial arts? I saw on his registration form that he is clearly a second-level spiritual master! Even if he really has the ability to practice both, I guess his strength is not on the same level."
Someone else interrupted and said, "Who cares if he is or not? Just the title of a Level 2 Spiritual Master is already very impressive! Who are you going to choose? Do you want to team up with Yuchi Xuan?"
"I'm not sure. There's actually a new student this year who is a powerful Spirit Master. I have reservations about this. I'm really afraid that I made the wrong choice. But I also hope that there will be a big boss who can protect me."
"Hey, you are an old student after all, but you still want the freshmen to protect you, isn't that shameful?"
"I don't feel ashamed. Think about it, where were the previous competitions held? Last time, there were 130 disciples participating, but only 36 returned! And this time, even if each team brings two freshmen, plus the old students, there are probably only six teams, with a total of only 60 people! How many people can come back alive this time?"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath, and for a moment, sighs were heard everywhere: "..."
"I think you are as cowardly as a mouse. What are you afraid of? If one comes, I will kill one. If two come, I will kill a pair!" His voice was deafening and echoed in the air, as if to shake the whole world.
However, no one responded to his bold words. Although Reimu Academy has countless desirable resources, it is also an extremely dangerous place. Not everyone can break through the spiritual realm and ascend to the middle realm in one fell swoop; not everyone has outstanding talents and abilities to enter the inner courtyard. For hundreds of years, the disciples of Reimu Academy have gone through rounds of selection. Although no one has successfully ascended, the number of people has never increased. The reason is that every time there is a big competition or a mission, those disciples who are not strong enough often cannot return...
All the outer court disciples tried their best to become inner court disciples, because only by entering the inner court could they have an extra layer of solid protection. Inner court disciples would have a life card of protection bestowed by the elders, which would ensure their lives to a certain extent and prevent them from dying easily. On the other hand, outer court disciples could only rely on their own strength. If their strength was too weak, they would be abandoned and become the nutrients of those terrifying beings...
——Newborn place——
Lu Wan sat in the yard, looking at the people in front of him. He really couldn't understand. We are all hostile forces... and you are looking for me to form a team one by one?
In the spacious courtyard, there was an exquisite stone table, and the table was full of people. Lu Wan sat in the middle of the crowd, and on her left sat the shy Liu Yueyao, Sikong Yue who looked like a fairy, Jin Xinxin who was as bright as the warm sunshine, and Minglang Yue who volunteered to contribute elixirs, etc. Everyone sat around Lu Wan, and the scene was very lively.
Lu Wan looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help shaking her head. These people almost accounted for half of the freshmen. Is this really a good thing? As she thought about it, she gently opened the folding fan in her hand and fanned it leisurely.
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "Boss! Boss! I brought a few junior brothers here, let's team up together!" Before the voice fell, a figure rushed in. The person looked at the handsome men and beautiful women sitting in the courtyard, and couldn't help swallowing hard - there were too many people here!
Lu Wan looked at the person who came, "Skinny monkey?"
The skinny monkey nodded repeatedly: "Boss, I'm going to be promoted to the inner courtyard this time. I have been in the academy for ten years. I was just promoted to the fifth level of spiritual master a few days ago, which is just right for me to go to the inner courtyard. The others are also around the fourth and fifth level of spiritual master." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed behind him, only to see four people of different heights standing in a row, both men and women.
Before Lu Wan could answer, he heard a clear laugh: "What a coincidence, there are just enough people."
Lu Wan looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was Ming Langyue. She immediately responded, "I haven't agreed to let you join yet!" Then she cast her eyes on the others and found that each of them was stronger than the other...
At this time, Jin Xinxin, who was as gentle as an older brother, said, "I am an equipment refiner. I am responsible for providing all the spiritual equipment in the team. If you team up with me, I guarantee that you will not suffer any loss."
Looking at Jin Xinxin, who seemed to be emitting golden light all over his body, Lu Wan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a rich brother!"
A pleasant voice sounded, as if stirring people's heartstrings: "I am a beast tamer... Well, then let's equip each person in the team with a fire beast." This sentence was said very calmly, but the amount of information contained in it was astonishing.
You know, the Fiery Beast is a fourth-level monster! They look like lions, are famous for their attack power, and have an additional skill, which is to control fire. Although they are only fourth-level monsters, it is not easy to defeat them. The levels of monsters are divided from one to ten. It can be said that the strength of monsters is extremely strong. The strength of a fourth-level monster is comparable to that of an early Spirit King. Now Sikong Yue is only a fifth-level Spirit Master, but he can already tame a fourth-level Fiery Beast. This shows how talented he is in controlling beasts. It is really amazing! )
Lu Wan was very excited. Ten fourth-level monsters would be a hot commodity no matter where they went!
Lu Wan clapped his hands quickly, "Good!"
At this time, Ming Langyue said with a smile: "Don't worry! I am an alchemist. If you choose me, I can take care of all the pills!"
Suddenly, there was a soft and pleasant voice, as soft as sticky rice: "Feng...Brother Fengqing, didn't we agree on this before?" Liu Yueyao's big watery eyes, full of pity and pleading, looked straight at Lu Wan. She thought to herself, these people are all super powerful people, but her strength is relatively weak, but she will definitely do her best and will never become a burden to her, please don't abandon her!
Lu Wan couldn't help but fall into hesitation... It was really difficult to decide. He wanted each of them very much. What should he do?
Skinny Monkey and the others standing by were simply stunned, secretly sighing in their hearts: "As expected of our boss, he has so many powerful people gathered around him!"
"Boss, you don't have to hesitate any longer! There are exactly ten of us! If we can successfully complete the competition this time, maybe we can enter the inner courtyard in one fell swoop!" said the skinny monkey excitedly.
Lu Wan: "Isn't this okay? Although there are ten people, we already have five freshmen."
The freshmen looked at Shouhou and others.
"It's okay, just ten people will be enough. The dean stipulates that there must be four freshmen, and one more or one less doesn't matter. Now that the team is here, let's choose a captain," the skinny monkey said enthusiastically. "In previous years, the person with the highest spiritual power always led the team. Boss, you are the tallest among us, so you can be the captain, we have no objection." The skinny monkey looked at the old students behind him and nodded together.
Lu Wan looked at everyone, her mouth twitched slightly, and she howled in her heart, "...You have no objection, but I want to make some suggestions. I am just a fake spiritual master!" She looked around and carefully observed the expressions of everyone. She said, "How about you choose a new captain? I..." As she spoke, her eyes fell on Si Kongyue and the others.
Sikong Yue answered without hesitation: "You are the strongest."
Jin Xinxin quickly nodded in agreement.
Liu Yueyao looked at Feng Qing with eyes full of admiration.
Ming Langyue smiled and said cheerfully: "It is my duty to be the captain!"
Lu Wan was speechless for a while, and sighed inwardly: "If I were a real spiritual master, maybe I wouldn't refuse... Now I really want to cry but I have no tears!"
After thinking for a moment, she came up with a compromise and suggested, "Why don't we vote for a vice-captain? After all, there are ten people in the team, and I can't take care of everyone. If something unexpected happens..."
However, before she could finish, everyone shook their heads in unison and said firmly: "We can take care of ourselves!"
Lu Wan was suddenly speechless and could only complain silently in his heart.
