Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Chen Jieqi came out of the dormitory after meditating and praying,
The morning fog has not cleared yet, and there is already a person practicing on the training ground.
Blue-purple thunder and lightning exploded in the air, crackling.
Yu Tianheng stood in the center of the field. Dragon Transformation's right arm was filled with lightning, and he rushed towards the stone wall in front of him with one claw after another.
There are already several cracks on the stone wall, and debris is scattered everywhere.
He was breathing heavily and his clothes were soaked with sweat, but he didn't stop.
Chen Jieqi stood on the sidelines and watched for a while.
Every claw of Yu Tianheng is heavier and more stable than last week.
Thunder and lightning condensed, exploded, and retracted in the palm of my hand, no longer escaping as before.
He is controlling, restraining, and compressing power into the smallest possible range.
This is about to break through...
Chen Jieqi walked over.
Yu Tianheng Hearing the footsteps, he stopped and looked back at him.
Sweat slipped from his forehead, dripped on the ground, and was quickly evaporated.
"Captain Chen." He gasped, his voice a little hoarse, but his eyes were bright.
Chen Jieqi looked at him without asking any questions.
"Go and test Soul Power."
Yu Tianheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
In the training room, Qin Ming is already there.
He held the Soul Power test crystal in his hand and watched Yu Tianheng walk in with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
"Try it."
Yu Tianheng took a deep breath and pressed his hand on the crystal.
The blue-purple light burst out instantly, filling the entire crystal, climbing all the way up to thirty-nine, forty, and then stopped.
Level 40.
Qin Ming nodded without any more praise.
"It's time to go to Soul Hunting. Let's consolidate today and set off early tomorrow morning."
He turned to look at Chen Jieqi.
"You lead the team, Emperor Douluo I, get up, you are one unit."
Qin Ming knows that what Yu Tianheng needs is not proof of a person's performance alone, but a breakthrough achieved together with his teammates.
Chen Jieqi glanced at him and nodded.
"Leave tomorrow."
Qin Ming didn't say any more, he knew Chen Jieqi understood.
In the afternoon, the message spread throughout Imperial Fighting Team.
Yu Feng was the first to rush into the practice room, his face full of excitement.
"Boss Yu is about to break through? Go to Soul Hunting? Where to go?
Star Dou Great Forest or Sunset Forest? Shall we go together?"
Osler followed him, folding his arms and saying nothing, but raised the corners of his mouth.
The two brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Let's go together."
Dugu Yan leaned against the door and glanced at Chen Jieqi. "Are you leading the team?"
"Hmm."
She nodded, turned around and walked away without asking any questions, took two steps and then stopped.
"Lingling I'll go talk to you over there."
Ye Lingling was sitting on the side of the training ground, holding Nine-Heart Begonia in his hand, listening quietly to Dugu Yan's words.
After listening, she nodded. "Okay."
If there is no extra words, she has always been like this.
In the evening, everyone met in the practice room.
Yu Tianheng came from the dormitory and changed into clean clothes. His hair was still wet, and he had obviously just taken a shower.
Yu Feng brought back a bunch of food from the canteen and set up a table.
Dugu Yan sat at the table and watched Yu Tianheng walk in. She looked him up and down and spoke lazily.
"Oh, not bad~,
Soul Ancestor is coming soon, you can catch up with me."
Yu Tianheng was stunned for a moment and said nothing.
Dugu Yan continued, as if mentioning it casually.
"I'm only level 46, so I'm still a long way from Soul King.
Don't chase me too fast, it will make me lose face."
Yu Tianheng looked at her and suddenly smiled.
"I'll catch up."
Dugu Yan raised his eyebrows.
"Let's wait until you catch up.
"She lowered her head to eat,"
We will set off early tomorrow morning and go back early to rest."
Yu Feng winked at him from behind, but was slapped on the back of the head by Osler.
Qin Ming stood at the door and did not come in.
When everyone had almost finished eating, he walked up to Chen Jieqi and whispered,
"Tomorrow you go first and I will follow behind. When we get to Thunderstrike Valley, I will wait outside.
You fight it yourself, I won't interfere."
Chen Jieqi nodded.
"Remember," Qin Ming said,
"You guys fight together, not him alone."
"I know."
Qin Ming glanced at him and said nothing more.
Early the next morning, at dawn, the team gathered at the gate of the college.
Yu Feng yawned, his eyes not fully opened yet.
"So early..."
"You said you wanted to come."
Osler leaned against the wall, eyes closed, and his voice was very calm.
"I'm not saying that, I'm saying... forget it."
Yu Feng rubbed his eyes and cheered up.
Shi Mo and Shi Mo stood in the middle of the team, Ye Lingling stood quietly next to Dugu Yan,
Chen Jieqi came out last.
He glanced at the team and nodded.
"Let's go."
Yu Feng was the first to run out and explore the way ahead.
Osler followed him, and their figures quickly disappeared into the morning light.
Shi Mo and Shi Mo walked in the middle with very steady steps.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were walking behind, whispering something.
Chen Jieqi and Yu Tianheng are last.
Qin Ming walked further behind, neither far nor near, like a shadow.
"Team Chen." Yu Tianheng suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
"Were you nervous when you Soul Hunting for the first time?"
Chen Jieqi thought for a while.
"Don't be nervous," he said.
Yu Tianheng was silent for a while.
"Why?"
Chen Jieqi glanced at him, Yu Tianheng's expression was very serious, he was not chatting, he really wanted to know.
"Because someone is telling the truth."
Chen Jieqi said, "
I know that even if something happens, someone can catch me."
Yu Tianheng was startled for a moment, then lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something.
"There is no Dugu crown prince this time," he said.
"We are here." Chen Jieqi's voice was very calm, as if he was saying an ordinary thing.
Yu Tianheng raised his head and looked at him.
Chen Jieqi didn't look at him, his eyes fell on the forest path in front of him, his expression was dull and he couldn't see any emotion.
But Yu Tianheng suddenly felt that something hanging on his chest had fallen.
"Okay." he said.
In the forest ahead, the voice of Yu Feng came from far away.
"We found a place! There is water! And there are fish!"
Dugu Yan's voice followed. "Can you catch fish?"
"No."
"Then what are you happy about?"
"... I can learn."
The laughter of Shi Mo and Shi Mo came over in a muffled voice, "If you learn from it, you are also an Air Force guy."
Chen Jieqi The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he quickened his pace.
Yu Tianheng followed and smiled too.
At noon, the team stopped to rest by a stream.
Yu Feng really went to catch fish. He took off his shoes and stood in the stream, flopping around in a hurry, but he didn't catch any.
In the end, Osler couldn't stand it any longer, so he broke off a branch from the tree, sharpened his head, and stood on the shore and made a fork accurately.
Yu Feng crawled ashore dripping wet, muttering, "It's great to be able to spear fish."
Osler ignored him, skewered the fish and put it on the fire.
Shi Mo and Shi Mo took out the seasoning from Soul Tool, applied honey on it, and the fragrance spread everywhere.
Ye Lingling sat by the stream and took a handful of water to wash her face. Water droplets fell from her face, but she did not wipe it away.
Dugu Yan was sitting next to Chen Jieqi, looking at the fire, and suddenly said,
"He has been waiting for this day for a long time."
Chen Jieqi knows who she is talking about.
"I know."
"Aren't you afraid that he will catch up with you?"
Chen Jieqi has no answer.
Dugu Yan turned to look at him, the firelight danced on his face, his expression was very light, but the corners of his mouth were slightly curved.
"That's better," he said.
Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Same."
Yu Tianheng was sitting opposite the fire, holding a grilled fish in his hand but not eating it.
He looked at the fire and didn't know what he was thinking.
Yu Feng came over and bumped his shoulder.
"Boss Yu, what are you thinking about?"
Yu Tianheng came back to his senses and shook his head. "It's nothing."
He took a bite of the fish. The fish was very tender, with the taste of charcoal and honey. He chewed it twice and suddenly said,
"Keep an eye on it for me tomorrow."
Yu Feng was stunned for a moment. "What are you looking at?"
"My back."
Yu Feng looked at him and suddenly stopped smiling. He nodded without asking why.
"Don't worry."
Yu Tianheng said nothing. He lowered his head and ate the fish, one bite at a time, very seriously.
The team continued to move forward. Sunset Forest became deeper and deeper, the trees became denser and denser, and the sunlight became less and less.
The air began to smell of moist rotten leaves, and occasionally the roar of Soul Beast could be heard in the distance.
Qin Ming quickened his pace and walked to Chen Jieqi.
"Four to five thousand years of thunder attribute Sub-Dragon Species,"
He whispered, "
There is a piece of Thunderstrike Valley to the east of Sunset Forest, there may be one there."
Chen Jieqi nodded.
"I know."
Qin Ming glanced at him and did not ask any further questions.
He never asked about the child's source of information.
"When we arrive," Qin Ming said,
"You command, remember, you are fighting together."
Chen Jieqi didn't answer, just nodded.
Qin Ming slowed down and returned to the back of the line.
When the sun began to set in the west, the team finally arrived near Thunderstrike Valley.
From a distance, you can see the dark clouds looming over the valley, the muffled thunder, and purple lightning striking down from time to time.
Chen Jieqi stopped and took a look at the sky.
"We won't go in today. We'll find a place to camp and enter the valley early tomorrow morning."
Yu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally I can rest..."
Dugu Yan glanced at him.
"Aren't you tired?"
"I'm not tired, but Boss Yu needs to rest!"
Yu Feng is confident and confident.
Yu Tianheng said nothing, but he did not deny it.
The team found a high ground to camp near the mouth of the valley.
Shi Mo took out the tent from Soul Tool and set it up with Shi Mo.
Yu Feng went to catch fish again. This time he really caught it. He held the fish and ran around the camp.
Dugu Yan said, "Put it back, we are not here for a picnic."
Dugu Yan sat next to Chen Jieqi, looking at the fire and saying nothing.
The firelight danced on her face, bright and dim.
As the night progressed, the bonfire gradually dimmed.
Yu Feng was wrapped in a blanket and leaning against the tent, muttering "I'll catch a bigger one next time."
Osler was leaning against a tree, eyes closed, and breathing very lightly.
Two brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo were huddled in a tent, snoring one after another.
Ye Lingling was lying next to Dugu Yan, as quiet as a leaf.
Dugu Yan was not asleep yet. She sat by the fire and looked at Chen Jieqi opposite.
He didn't sleep either, his eyes were closed, as if he was thinking about something.
"Xiao Qi." She called softly.
He opened his eyes. "Yeah."
"You just said that you are not afraid if someone tells you the truth.
When you Soul Hunting for the first time, who was the one who told you the truth?"
Chen Jieqi was silent for a while. "Grandpa."
Dugu Yan nodded. She knew. She just suddenly wanted to hear what he said.
"What now?" she asked, "Who can tell you the truth?"
Chen Jieqi has no answer.
He looked at her for a moment, then said, "Myself."
Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment.
She wanted to say something, but her throat felt like it was blocked.
She just looked at him for a long time, then lowered her head and smiled.
"Okay." She said, "Then you can carry it for me."
Chen Jieqi The corners of the mouth are slightly hooked. "Okay."
The moonlight shone down and it was very quiet.
In the distance Thunderstrike Valley, thunder roared and lightning flashed across the sky, but no one was afraid.
