This day.
Long Zhanye is in front and Ye Guyi is behind. They went to the Mingde Hall to study as usual.
The corridor of the Mingde Hall is always so quiet, with only the buzzing sound from Soul Guidance Lamp and the brisk footsteps of the two people.
Long Zhanye's steps are steady and powerful.
Ye Guyi followed behind, holding a manuscript borrowed from Kong Deming in his hand, reading it with fascination as he walked.
Unexpectedly, he met two figures on the way.
The two people were standing at the corner of the corridor, one on the left and one on the right, as if waiting for them.
One of them was wearing a cowboy hat and jeans.
Wearing a pair of long boots with spurs, he was dressed like a western cowboy.
The brim of his hat was pulled down very low, covering most of his face, leaving only his chin and the half-smiling expression at the corner of his mouth.
That man, Long Zhanye, will never admit his mistake, Jing Hongchen's grandson, Xiao Hongchen.
The proud boy who is called the number one genius of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy.
The other person is Xiao Hongchen's sister, Meng Hongchen.
She stood next to her brother, wearing a light red dress, with a delicate face and gentle temperament.
It is in sharp contrast to the bohemian look of Xiao Hongchen.
That Xiao Hongchen has his right leg raised and his body leaning against the wall.
He looked very unruly, like a street gangster.
Then he whistled, which echoed in the quiet corridor, making it particularly harsh.
"Yo!" His voice was drawn out and seemed to be a bit teasing.
"Isn't this our genius researcher, Long Zhanye?"
"Where are you going?"
Long Zhanye stopped, his eyes swept over Xiao Hongchen, and then fell on Meng Hongchen.
He smiled back:
"Of course I'm going to the Mingde Hall. By the way, let your grandpa pour me a cup of tea."
No one could understand what the two people meant by their words.
Is it a joke? Is it a provocation? Or is it just a war of words?
Only they themselves know.
But Long Zhanye knew that Xiao Hongchen must have something to find him.
The brother and sister would not wait for him here for no reason, nor would they block his way for no reason.
As for what it is, I don't know.
At this moment, with the proud identity of Xiao Hongchen, the pride of the day, he is not angry?
He is the grandson of Jing Hongchen, the first genius of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy.
Being ridiculed like this, he actually didn't turn away, didn't get angry, and didn't throw away his sleeves.
Instead, he took off his hat, slowly and slowly.
He took the hat and turned it around in his hand, revealing his delicate and proud face.
He cleared his throat and said:
"In three months, it will be Spirit Master Elite Tournament, which is held every five years in mainland China."
"And this Spirit Master Elite Tournament will be held in our Ming Capital..."
Before he finished speaking, Long Zhanye waved his hand and said in a calm tone:
"Not interested."
After saying that, he raised his feet and walked away without stopping, without looking away.
It was as if the words Xiao Hongchen just said were just a gust of wind blowing past my ears.
"No, you..."
I saw that Xiao Hongchen quickly raised his arm and stopped Long Zhanye.
His arms were stretched across Long Zhanye's body. His movements were crisp and neat, with a bit of dominance that could not be refused.
There was still a smile on his face, but that smile was a little more serious.
"Hey, I haven't finished speaking yet." His voice rose a little.
Meng Hongchen on the side quickly added, with a crisp and soft voice:
"This time Spirit Master Tournament, not only participating colleges, but also major sect forces will also participate."
"Now it's being held in our Ming Capital, are you really not interested?"
Long Zhanye shook his head, his tone still calm:
"Not interested."
Long Zhanye knows it very well. After participating in the competition, you will get Soul Tool reward, which is undoubtedly tempting.
A high-end Soul Tool is enough to make any Spirit Master crazy.
But he also knows that there will be another problem in participating in the competition-
That is Soul Skill who exposes himself, and may even reveal his identity.
In competitions, it is impossible to only use Soul Tool.
The Soul Skill used inadvertently, as well as the mysterious Heavenly Eye Martial Soul, will be exposed to the eyes of countless people.
It will definitely have a lot of impact on him in the future.
Besides, I now have a complicated identity, being both a disciple of the Body Sect and a researcher of the Mingde Hall.
Although Body Sect and Mingde Hall seem to be in harmony on the surface, secretly they are already incompatible.
When the time comes on the playing field, if the identities of the two major forces are suspicious of each other, wouldn't your situation be very disadvantageous?
Xiao Hongchen said quickly again, with a bit of urgency in his voice:
"It's been a long time since you came to the Mingde Hall. My grandpa is very respectful to you, so you'll benefit from it too."
There was a hint of temptation in his tone, as well as a hint.
Long Zhanye frowned slightly and looked directly at Xiao Hongchen:
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Hongchen smiled again, with a bit of cunning in that smile:
"It's not interesting."
"I just want to invite you to join us Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy Team and compete."
"If you win the championship, Soul Tool will be yours."
Soul Tool belongs to you?
He said these four words lightly.
But Long Zhanye knows that the Soul Tool awarded to the champion is at least one Level 9 Soul Tool.
Long Zhanye shook his head again and his eyes stayed on Xiao Hongchen's face for a moment.
There was a bit of scrutiny and doubt in his eyes:
"Then what are you doing this for? You don't even want the final reward."
Meng Hongchen said:
"Shrek Academy has been the number one college in mainland China for thousands of years, and its status has never been shaken."
"And we just want to shake up its status."
"Rewards are not important to us at all."
"We want to clear up Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy's name. All we need is a reputation."
Long Zhanye was silent for a moment, and then said, with a bit of evasion in his voice:
"Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy is full of talents, and you Xiao Hongchen are the number one genius!"
"Now that I have reached the level of Soul Saint, why worry about not winning the championship?"
"And I'm just an outstanding student ranked tenth."
He spoke of himself very softly and indifferently, as if the shock of those eleven Sun Moon Divine Drum sounds had never happened.
Xiao Hongchen was silent for a moment, and for the first time, a somewhat complicated expression appeared on that proud face.
He lowered his head, the brim of his hat covering his eyes, leaving only his pursed lips exposed.
"Five years ago, we lost to Huo Yuhao of the Shrek Academy."
"He is my lifelong enemy."
His voice was low and hoarse, with a bit of unwillingness and a bit of obsession:
"Now, I will tell the truth."
"Although I achieved Soul Saint, I achieved Soul Saint through medication."
"Although my strong cultivation has given me immense confidence, the presence of that guy always makes me uneasy."
He raised his head and looked at Long Zhanye:
"And I heard that you fought him before at the Mingde Hall Big Bang, and even subdued him with your own hands."
"If you can join our team, as long as you subdue him on the field, you won't need to do anything else. We will crush him."
Long Zhanye's brows wrinkled slightly, with a hint of confusion in his voice:
"When I fought against that guy, he was only a fourth-level player. Now he is only a fifth-level player. Is it worth being so afraid of you?"
Hongchen Siblings all stopped talking.
Silence.
In that silence, there were too many things that couldn't be said, and there was a kind of awe that was hidden deep in my heart and that I didn't want to admit.
Long Zhanye is thinking a lot at this moment.
I hate Shrek, and I also want to personally destroy Shrek's reputation.
Those hatreds, those humiliations, those pains of family destruction and death, and the hatred of Martial Soul being abolished are all engraved in his bones.
But if he takes action for the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy at this moment, what if he meets an acquaintance of his Body Sect.
How should he explain?
Those Elders, those senior brothers, what would they think of him?
Although I don't know what the real purpose of the sect's previous sneak attack on the Mingde Hall was.
But at this time, the two major forces had already become enemies.
He stood in the middle of the corridor, with the expectant looks of Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen in front of him, and Ye Guyi waiting quietly behind him.
In his heart, thoughts surged like a tide, Jiujiu couldn't calm down.
