Lan Fozi sat on the sofa resignedly, with his hands on his knees, as well-behaved as a primary school student.
Long Yuan leaned back on the chair and looked at her with a half-smile.
Lan Fozi secretly glanced at Gu Yuena next to him, then quickly looked away, muttering in a low voice, "I originally wanted to ask my brother-in-law if he didn't like that bead... I don't want to ask now."
Long Yuan The corners of his mouth twitched.
Gu Yuena finally tidied up his clothes and raised his head, the blush on his face had not completely subsided.
She glanced at Lan Fozi and spoke calmly.
"Where did you find that bead?"
Lan Fozi answered honestly, "In a cave under the sea, it was me... left by my mother. I knew there was something there when I was a child, but I could never open it. This time I went back, and I don't know why it suddenly opened."
Long Yuan and Gu Yuena looked at each other.
Demon Empress's back-up plan will naturally not be opened casually.
For Lan Fozi to be able to open it, it either means that her cultivation level has reached that level - or, in other words, after Long Yuan helped her seal her cultivation level, it actually made her power more pure.
Or maybe she has met some other requirements, such as age or something.
However, Long Yuan still prefers the former.
Of course, what is clear is that since this is the seal set by Demon Empress himself, Long Yuan feels that Demon Empress should already know that Lan Fozi took away Whale Pearl...
Tsk, things are getting more and more troublesome.
"Things are good things." Long Yuan said, "But don't take them out casually in the future. Treasures of that level will be very troublesome if someone is interested in them."
Lan Fozi blinked. "But with my brother-in-law, who dares to rob me?"
Long Yuan was silent for a second.
This is what I said...
He really couldn't refute it.
Gu Yuena said calmly from the side, "He put it away when he said it was done, why do he talk so much?"
Lan Fozi shrank his neck and nodded obediently.
"Oh..."
Long Yuan Seeing her look like this, he couldn't bear to say anything more, so he took out an invitation from the drawer and put it on the table.
"Just in time, I have something to tell you. Skysea Alliance Tournament, it will start in a few days."
Lan Fozi's eyes lit up. "Big competition? What big competition?"
"The competition jointly organized by five cities on the eastern seaboard includes Soul Master, Mecha division, Battle Armor Master, and blacksmith sub-professions." Long Yuan briefly explained, "Class Zero everyone must participate."
Lan Fozi stood up excitedly. "What about me? What about me?"
"You go too." Long Yuan glanced at her, "But don't expose too much, just hit her casually."
Lan Fozi nodded repeatedly.
What she is best at is "hitting casually".
Gu Yuena took the invitation and looked through it twice. When he saw that it was a referee invitation, he didn't say anything.
Long Yuan's forging level is known to her, so there is no problem in inviting him.
"When?"
"It will start in five days. The location is Skysea City." Long Yuan stood up and said, "You should prepare in the past few days. I will sign up for you if you need to sign up. Just practice hard."
Lan Fozi was stunned for a moment, then showed a bright smile.
"Okay."
It's time to go out and play again!
The news quickly spread on Class Zero.
Early the next morning, everyone gathered on the playground.
Long Yuan stood in front of the team, holding several registration forms in his hands.
"Skysea Alliance Tournament will be held in Skysea City four days later." His eyes swept across the crowd, "Class Zero, everyone must participate."
Xie Xie raised his hand. "Teacher Long, which project are we participating in?"
"Soul Master competition, youth group." Long Yuan said calmly, "I have signed up for all of you. In addition to the single competition, you will also participate in the three-person team competition and the five-person team competition."
Xie Xie's eyes lit up. "Then what if you run into one of your own?"
Long Yuan glanced at him.
"Then it depends on who has the stronger fist."
Xie Xie choked.
Tang Wulin stood beside him, hesitant to speak.
Long Yuan noticed his expression. "What's wrong?"
Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Master, can I sign up for the blacksmith competition at the same time?"
Long Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"You want to participate?"
Tang Wulin nodded. "I want to try."
Long Yuan nodded. "Okay, if there is no conflict in time, you can participate on both sides. Originally, Mu Chen mentioned it to me. This year, you and Mu Xi will represent Eastsea City Blacksmith Association in the youth group competition."
Tang Wulin's eyes lit up. "Thank you, Master!"
Xie Xie said sourly from the side, "Wulin, are you going to win two championships?"
Tang Wulin scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "I'm not sure whether I can get it..."
"Come on." Xie Xie rolled his eyes, "You, a dignified fourth-level blacksmith, are going to join the youth group. Isn't that bullying others?"
Tang Wulin smiled coquettishly.
Long Yuan ignored the bickering between the two and continued, "Mu Xi, I will be with you when the time comes. You are better than her, so take more care of her."
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment and nodded.
In the next two days, everyone at Class Zero was preparing nervously.
Tang Wulin practices Innate Secret Method during the day, takes medicinal baths at night, and occasionally takes time to practice forging.
He placed the inner elixir of Deep Sea Lobster in his practice room. Every time he practiced, he could feel a warm energy pouring into his body, allowing him to recover faster and make progress more steadily.
Although this thing is called lobster, it is really a subspecies of dragon beast with the blood of the Dragon Clan, and it is not just some good name.
It was rare for Xie Xie not to be lazy. He practiced according to the plan customized by Wu Zhangkong every morning and evening, and even practiced some body skills secretly.
Although he said he didn't care, he knew in his heart that it would be too embarrassing if he really lost miserably in the game.
Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi took the medicinal bath of Deep Sea Iron Whale's spine for two days, and they felt that their bodies were indeed much stronger.
The two of them don't talk much at ordinary times, but they are never vague during training, and Wu Zhangkong also deliberately opened some small details for the two of them.
Xu Xiaoyan is practicing mental power with Gu Yuena, but her progress is relatively slow. After all, her Martial Soul has too high environmental requirements at this stage, and training is not that simple at all.
Lan Fozi walks on the playground every day, occasionally giving Xu Xiaoyan pointers, and occasionally teasing Xie Xie, living a leisurely life.
Long Yuan comes to visit occasionally, and mostly deals with Skysea Alliance Tournament's affairs in the office.
As the representative of the Blacksmith Association, he presides over the entire blacksmith competition and has many complicated matters.
Fortunately, he is well versed in the leadership's planning methods and has found a lot of people to share the pressure with him, which is not bad.
Gu Yuena There is nothing to prepare.
With her strength, the competition in the youth group was just a formality.
On the evening of the fourth day, Long Yuan called everyone together.
"Leave Skysea City early tomorrow morning." He glanced at everyone, "Have a good rest tonight and don't stay up late."
Xie Xie raised his hand. "Teacher Long, can we win?"
Long Yuan glanced at him.
"What do you think?"
Xie Xie thought about it and smiled sarcastically.
"Should... can, right?"
Long Yuan didn't answer and turned around to leave.
The sun sets in the west, dyeing the entire playground a warm orange color.
Tang Wulin stood on the playground, looking at the sunset on the horizon, with some expectation in his heart.
Skysea City, Dabi...
This is his first official competition.
He clenched his fists and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Must win.
In the distance, Long Yuan stood on the roof of the teaching building, looking at the young figures on the playground.
Gu Yuena walked to him and followed his gaze.
"Where do you think they can finish?"
Long Yuan said calmly, "The ranking is not important. The important thing is to let them see the outside world."
Gu Yuena nodded.
The two stood side by side, neither of them speaking.
The evening breeze blew through, carrying a light salty smell.
