Standing together through thick and thin

Chapter 184 College Competition

Shao Qiu went to see Chen Yu as promised.

Chen Yu invited Shao Qiu to a private room in an inn in No. [-] Square.

Looking at Li Xiuye, who was following Shaoqiu and staring at him, Chen Yu's face darkened. He was very happy when he saw Shaoqiu just now, as if he hadn't seen him for a long time, and he felt an uncontrollable sense of courage in his heart. .

Now Li Xiuye, who was always following Shaoqiu, seemed to be reminding him all the time that Shaoqiu was married, and Chen Yu felt uncomfortable all over.

As soon as he came back, he heard that Li Xiuye ​​spent no less than 100 million yuan stones to buy various magic weapon materials for Shaoqiu. The whole academy was spreading rumors about their deeds, and he could hear them everywhere he went. Chen Yu was listening in a rare good mood After hearing those rumors, they disappeared instantly.

Thinking of this, he became even more unkind when he looked at Li Xiuye's ostentatious and complacent eyes.

But he quickly regained his composure.

"You're here, sit down!" Chen Yu said to Shao Qiu, he didn't go to see Li Xiuye, even if they didn't have any enmity, they didn't like each other.

Shao Qiu didn't notice the undercurrent between Chen Yu and Li Xiuye, so he nodded and walked over.

Li Xiuye ​​didn't need to be greeted by Chen Yu, and sat beside Shao Qiu consciously.

When the food was served, Li Xiuye ​​thoughtfully put food for Shao Qiu and fed him.

Chen Yu barely ate a few mouthfuls of food, and kept watching Li Xiuye ​​intentionally show love to Shao Qiuxiu in front of him. Fortunately, Shao Qiu quickly talked about what they had heard, and Chen Yu didn't have that much thought on it. Li Xiuye ​​is on him.

Shao Qiu told Chen Yu what he heard that day.

He didn't say anything about entering the lair later, and Chen Yu didn't ask. After all, they didn't do little to copy the monster's lair. Who cares how many treasures they get?

It's not my own!

Chen Yu only cared about what he heard.

Shao Qiu knew more than him.

"The Nangong family also got involved?" Chen Yu didn't expect this. Their family and the Nangong family have been evenly matched for the past few years, but the Chen family is obviously on the decline. But now that he is back, the Chen family has a Taking a breather, the position of the first family can be kept.

It's just that the Nangong family was very unhappy with this situation, and there were a lot of tricks in the open and in the dark, but they didn't expect that the Nangong family would also participate in the abolition of their cultivation base.

In the past, he only thought it was related to the second wife, but now, with the addition of the Nangong family, things have changed.

"It may not be that the Nangong family really joined in, I heard that Nangong Yang is not valued by the family!" Shao Qiu said.

Chen Yu shook his head, "Those who can enter the Holy Martial Academy have a certain status in the family. This time, in the peak forest secret realm, the family also has a big competition to select a group of excellent characters to send in, and Nangong Yang has been in it for so many years. With so many benefits, it is impossible for the Nangong family not to notice it, but they ignored it, and since they chose to ignore it, it means that they know about my situation."

Thinking about it this way, he figured out what he had been unable to figure out.

He said, with the second room's manpower, how could it be possible to plot against him and then plot against his father?It turned out that there was a helper from the Nangong family!

Although there is no evidence, the monk's intuition has always been accurate. This matter does not need evidence, and the truth is almost indistinguishable.

The Nangong family has always wanted to replace the position of the first family of the Chen family, so it is not surprising that they would do such a thing.

Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief, he needs to go back and discuss with his family what to do?

If the second room is really in the same boat as the Nangong family, then this matter must be told to the patriarch!

Chen Yu took a deep look at Shaoqiu, then lowered his head to drink tea, "No matter what, I really want to thank you this time. I will personally apologize to her and make up for my aunt's matter."

"My mother is not such a narrow-minded person. Besides, are we all good friends and good brothers? You say this is too outlandish." At the beginning, Chen Yu said he treated him like a younger brother!

"Good brother...?" Chen Yu felt a bitter feeling in his heart, knowing that it was impossible, why would he always have expectations in his heart.

Now Shao Qiu's words directly awakened the relationship between them, and the one-sided ambiguous emotion was completely wiped out like this. Chen Yu didn't know whether he was relieved or should be sad. have.

The three of them ate, chatted for a while, and then separated.

When Shao Qiu came out, there was something wrong with his expression.

Li Xiuye ​​asked, "What's the matter?"

"Have you noticed, Big Brother Chen, that something is wrong?" Shaoqiu didn't know where he got this feeling, Chen Yu looked at him strangely, as if he was looking at a lover, but thinking of their long-standing relationship Getting along with each other, Shaoqiu didn't find anything wrong, it was pure brotherhood, so Shaoqiu never felt that Chen Yu had any thoughts about him.

"What's wrong? It's probably because I'm sad to think that I'm being tricked by my brother!" Li Xiuye ​​said.

Li Xiuye's eyes were cold. Chen Yu had never shown such emotions before, or because he didn't notice it, even if he revealed it, he didn't understand, so there was no kind of affectionate and hot in his eyes. Also very simple.

So there is no doubt.

However, today's Chen Yu, with his bright eyes and emotional changes, has clearly noticed it. Chen Yu doesn't know what mood he is in, and he is even more unhappy with Chen Yu.

Shao Qiu didn't ask too much, although he thought it was wrong, but he still felt that this matter should not be asked, and it seemed that something terrible would happen if he found out.

After the two came out, they went back home and left behind pills and primordial stones. Although they had no shortage of primordial stones, Shaoqiu still gave them a lot.

Those were his mother and younger brother, so naturally they kept more.

Then, the two went to the street to prepare some things they needed in the secret realm. They prepared everything they could, and then they waited for the arrival of the college competition.

Shaoqiu is very interested in the rewards of the college competition.

Hearing that there will be scarce alchemy prescriptions as rewards in the alchemy competition this time, Shaoqiu was very energetic.

In the library, last time they bought a lot of things and spent millions of primordial stones, the contribution points suddenly increased a lot, and they could reach the first three floors of the library, but the precious resources, exercises and alchemy recipes at the back are nothing to him. No matter how high your cultivation base is, no matter how much you contribute, you can't go there.

Only under special circumstances can he go up to see it.

This special situation is uncertain, it all depends on the judgment of the academy, even the elders of the Seven Great Peaks cannot reach the high-level area, and Shaoqiu doesn't know how to get in.

Therefore, this time, when Shaoqiu heard that there was a scarce pill recipe, he was eager to try it, and everything that needed to be prepared had to be prepared in advance.

The college competition came as scheduled, and the students of Shengwu College were almost all gathered together on this day, and the surroundings were very lively.

The first is the preliminaries of each branch, the finals, and finally the finals of the entire academy. There are three competitions in total, alchemy, weapon refining, martial arts competition, and others are also grouped into these three directions.

These three items have always been the most important points of Shengwu Academy, and each has its own peak.

This is also the facade of the academy, as long as these three aspects are done well, the reputation outside will naturally be good.

Only the top ten in the finals and the top three in each sub-match will be rewarded.

However, most of the places to go to the peak forest secret realm are martial arts competitions. The top [-] places in the martial arts competition have the opportunity to enter the peak forest secret realm, [-] others for refining weapons, and [-] for alchemy.

It's not because of any special treatment. Students from every branch participating in these competitions can sign up. No matter what they have learned, as long as they can win the competition, they can enter the peak forest secret realm. Moreover, the top [-] places in the competition have already been filled. Including outstanding children from each branch.

At the same time, the martial arts of the students of Dan Academy are generally not high, and too many people go to the peak forest secret realm, and they are also sent to death.

After Shao Qiu signed up, he was assigned to the Grand Competition of Dan Academy.

In the first round of preliminaries, Shao Qiu and hundreds of other disciples took the stage together, and the host gave everyone a storage bag.

A large pile of herbs on the stage was piled up together, forming a huge mountain, and the rich and different aromas of herbs were mixed together, and someone rang a gong on it, saying: "The preliminaries are two hours, between two hours Whoever picks the most herbs and configures the most prescriptions will win, and the top [-] in the first round of the competition will be selected."

"The rules are: [-]. No contention, no fights, no arbitrary allocation of pills for the sake of winning, the pills must conform to the rules and can produce useful pills. [-]. The herbs piled up on the ground are all low-level herbs. Basically, all the low-level recipes have been included, and more than [-] known recipes can be configured. You don’t have to find another way to configure new recipes that are not among the low-level recipes. This question is only to test your basic ability, not to test your ability. Alchemy skills.

[-]. You must know more than [-] types of herbs to meet the requirements. Those who know less than [-] types of herbs, please withdraw directly! "

While the host was talking, he saw several people quit the arena with regret.

Seeing that no one quit, the host continued: "If you can't even pass the basic level, even if you are a genius, I regret to tell you that the next college competition will continue!"

"Okay, these are the rules, the first round of preliminaries of Shengwu Academy, start!"

With a soft sound, Shao Qiu and others began to walk into the arena.

Hundreds of people gathered together, no fighting, no fighting with each other, some people had already climbed up the herbal medicine mountain, Shaoqiu felt that the person who designed this competition must be intentional, deliberately let everyone go in such a swarm.

Even if it was a herb mountain like a hill, with so many people piled up at once, it was inevitable that a fight would occur, so some people fought soon, but the two were sent off the stage in an instant.

Shao Qiu didn't go over to pick herbs together.

He looked at the tall pile of herbs, cast a spell, and directly sucked the sharp herbs on the upper pile.

Those who saw his movements were taken aback for a moment, and then glared at Shao Qiu angrily.

Shao Qiu smiled brilliantly, "Accept, accept!"

Then, he began to find a corner of the hill-like herbs he had sucked, and slowly picked them up.

Seeing Shao Qiu doing this, the others began to cast spells to snatch the herbs.

Because fighting and fighting are not allowed, the herbs that have been robbed can only watch silently and join in the ranks of snatching herbs.

Soon, a hill-like pile of herbs was instantly divided into hills on the stage, and then everyone found a place to squat down and slowly pick herbs, prepare prescriptions, let go one by one, and write on the sign .

Shao Qiu's picking speed was very fast. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had picked out hundreds of herbs and recorded them one by one.

He recorded the names and quantities of the herbs, as well as their quality, which he then sorted and put into the storage bags that were issued.

Half an hour later, half of the hill pile had been processed.

An hour later, Shaoqiu took a deep breath, finished processing the last batch of herbs, and prepared the recipes according to the name of the herbs and the quantity and quality of the herbs he had recorded. Some recipes were the same, so he wrote X2X3X4 at the back. The broken ones were picked out by him and placed aside.

After Shaoqiu finished writing these recipes, he prepared them directly from the selected herbs, and finally handed them over to the host.

At this time, only a quarter of an hour before the end of the preliminaries, Shaoqiu had prepared all the herbs and handed them over to the host.

And the one who completed it one step faster than Shaoqiu was Nan Gongming, the elder brother of the alchemy academy.

Nangong Ming's expression was cold, when he looked at Shaoqiu like nothing, his whole body burst out with the aura that people should not enter, no one dared to approach him.

The first time Shao Qiu met Nangong Ming, he didn't know who he was at first, but soon the host gave his name, "Nangong Ming, pass!"

Shao Qiu was taken aback when he heard it, but he didn't pay much attention, and directly handed in his grades.

When handing it in, Shao Qiu found that there were quite a few people in charge who were checking the number of herbs and prescriptions, as well as looking at the names and properties of thousands of herbs written down by Shao Qiu. Being able to spot right from wrong, Shaoqiu couldn't help being awed.

Although he was very confident in refining the elixirs, it was the first time that these people were so familiar with herbs and elixirs that they could tell with a glance, and there were no mistakes.

This academy is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!

Soon, Shao Qiu heard the name again, "Shao Qiu, pass!"

Shao Qiu nodded, and followed Nan Gongming to stand on a stage.

Then, several more people passed and stood on the stage.

Shao Qiu saw that those who wrote less than a thousand herbal medicines were directly brushed down.

In the end, 150 people stayed on the stage.
