In the dense forest, sporadic sunlight penetrated through the gaps in the leaves, and only sporadic spots of light shone on the ground covered in fallen leaves, shading the slight gloom of the entire forest.
"Squeak squeak…"
At this time, the forest was unusually quiet, except for a few people walking, and when they stepped on dead branches and leaves, they made a creaking sound.
"Everyone just heard Elder Su's words, in this "Fire Energy Hunting Competition", the reward for arriving early will be richer. But let's go together, how can this reward be calculated?" Liu Lingfeng spoke first, his gaze swept over everyone one by one, and then he pretended to be relaxed.
Hearing Liu Lingfeng's words, everyone thought about it. Everyone stopped, and the atmosphere between everyone became strange.
"What do you mean by that?" The person who answered the phone was Wang Shan, and seeing that everyone was silent, he said with a big smile.
"Hehe, what's the point, of course, we'll disperse and then we can compete for this final reward!" Shui Rouer said with a gentle smile, seeming to answer Wang Shan, but in reality, he was completely cruelly dissecting the issues between several people.
After Liu Xi watched everyone think, everyone had distant looks, he realized that their small team had actually been torn apart. sighed in his heart, although he knew some things, but even if he said it now, it was useless, and the hearts of the people were scattered. And some of them are geniuses, and they are not afraid of the threats from the old disciples.
Of course, Liu Xi did not need to team up with them, and did not speak. smiled indifferently and said, "Since you already have an idea in your heart, I won't stop you, I'll see you in the courtyard."
"Hahaha, okay, I'll see you in the courtyard!"
"Liu Xi, I won't lose to you this time."
"This reward should be mine, I'll go first."
...
The others dispersed and headed straight to the courtyard. After walking for a while, I saw two groups of figures, one side of which were also freshmen this year, but five of them seemed to be together, but they kept arguing.
And on the tree not far from them, there were the same five figures, these five young people looked at the new students below with a playful expression, like a cat looking at a mouse.
Liu Xi couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this scene, there were strong enemies outside, and there were endless quarrels inside, these freshmen were in trouble. Liu Xi did not take a step forward, but continued to hide in the darkness and observe.
"Yo, what leisurely people, are there still idle quarrels at a time like this?" At this time, the old disciple who was standing on the tree looked at the new disciples below who were still arguing, and couldn't help but say jokingly. And the freshmen who were originally arguing couldn't help but tense up for a moment and looked around vigilantly.
When they raised their heads, they saw five young men standing on the branches above their heads, all of them wearing a badge with a tattoo that looked like a tower on their chest.
"You're here to steal the so-called 'fire energy', right?" Among the five freshmen, a tall young man sneered. He was able to become the top fifty in the outer courtyard of Canaan Academy, and his strength was naturally not weak, and he didn't feel much fear of these young men who were around the same age as him.
"Clever." On the branch, a young man with a scar on his face said with a smile, and then said with a smile: "Since you all know our purpose, then there is no need to talk nonsense, pass on the "fire energy" so as not to suffer from a meal of flesh and skin, how about it?" "
"In a dream?" The thin young man pursed his lips, but as soon as his words fell, a figure flashed in front of him, and then a figure appeared in front of him, kicking the thin youth hard in the stomach. Suddenly, the latter's body was kicked and smashed against the tree trunk, and blood gushed out, and he resisted several times, but still could not get up.
"Damn it, up!" Seeing the other party making a move, the tall young man became furious, he shouted angrily and wanted to fight back.
However, just as his voice fell, he heard a muffled sound behind him, and when he hurriedly looked back, he saw that the other three companions had all turned into rolling gourds and were thrown together, and next to them, three young men pressed their hands to their chests, their faces full of disdain.
"Boy, no matter how well you blended in the outer courtyard before, when you first came to the inner courtyard, it was a dragon, you should have curled up, it was a tiger, you should have nested." A smile suddenly sounded in the ears of the tall young man, and then a shadow flashed, and when a blow hit his face, the young man fell to the ground and there was blood in his mouth.
"If you don't want to continue to be beaten, then take out the fire crystal card yourself." The young man with a scar on his face twisted his fist and said lightly.
Hearing his words, these five first years had to grit their teeth, thinking that the hero would not tolerate losing in front of him, and took out the so-called Fire Crystal Card.
Taking the cards from the hands of the five, the youth's face flushed with heat, and then with a wave of his hand, the remaining four cards were thrown to his four companions. He turned his hand over and took out a light blue Fire Crystal Card, the number was 53, and he saw him tightly clutching two Fire Crystal Cards together with an excited face. In a short time, the number on his Fire Crystal Card rose to 56, and the other Fire Crystal Card only had 2 left.
Then he threw away the Fire Crystal Card when there were only two points left, and looked at the young man in front of him with an angry expression. He laughed and said, "Boy, this is the end of not reporting to the group in the courtyard, this is a necessary part of entering the courtyard, and the seniors will pass it on to you for free."
"Gone! I finally have this opportunity, but I can't waste all my time on them." The Scar Youth's companion saw that he was still preaching and reminded him loudly.
Scar Youth said nothing more and left with his four companions to continue searching for a new life. And the five freshmen who remained in place looked at each other with resentment, and they also completely dispersed. After the excitement passed, Liu Xi indifferently walked out and chased after the old students in the direction they had gone.
As Scar Youth and his companions continued to search for new prey, they suddenly spoke up, "Speaking of which, why do I feel colder and colder? "
"Indeed, since the beginning of the year, I have also felt that the temperature around me has continued to drop." Another thin young man asked suspiciously.
With vigilance in their hearts, several people hurriedly stopped to investigate the reason, and after a while, they saw Liu Xi approaching.
Sensing the cold aura emanating from Liu Xi's body, the scarred young man said with a gloomy smile: "It turns out that it is you, one of the top five in this selection competition, no wonder you dare to chase after us alone." "
"In that case, let us teach you a lesson on how to survive in the courtyard! Great genius. As he spoke, the five of them weakly surrounded the willow mat.
"The courtyard is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, but if you want to teach me a lesson, I'm afraid you are not qualified." Liu Xi looked at the few people surrounding him and said with a disdainful smile on his handsome face.
"Arrogance, let's teach you to respect your elders!" The skinny young man standing on Liu Xi's left said sharply.
After saying that, several people rushed towards Liu Xi at the same time, and the five of them cooperated very well, and they weakly blocked all of Liu Xi's retreats with their movements.
Lu Xi saw that his retreat was sealed, a sneer appeared on his face, and a red flame appeared in his hand with his palm raised, and suddenly the temperature around him dropped sharply, and all the heat was plundered by the red flame.
The scarred young man was the first to face Liu Xi, only to see that he was shocked to find that when his attack fell on Liu Xi, Liu Xi's body directly turned into a dark blue streamer, and there was no point in attacking the essence at all.
A stretch flashed through his attack, flashing in front of the skinny young man and condensed into Liu Xi's figure again. The skinny young man and Liu Xi looked at each other, and before they could see the sneer on Liu Xi's face, they were blown away by Liu Xi's punch around the red flame, and after falling to the ground, they held onto their bodies and trembled continuously. At this time, the red flame did not flare up, so after contact, it directly stole almost half of the exhausted young man's body heat.
After Liu Xi dealt with the skinny young man, when the other people behind him were about to attack him, they saw that his expression remained unchanged, and his figure turned into a ribbon and disappeared again. The tripwire flashed behind the other young man again, turning into a willow figure and easily dealt with him with the same move.
After that, Liu Xi's figure turned into a tripwire and disappeared again, and the remaining three people all looked around vigilantly, afraid that Liu Xi would suddenly appear and attack them.
But it was useless, they couldn't find Liu Xi's figure at all, and they didn't know how Liu Xi suddenly appeared next to them. Liu Xi easily flashed on their side again, solved the two again, and in the end, only the injured youth remained.
I saw the scarred young man looking down at his four teammates who were lying on the ground and constantly trembling, and then raised his head to look around and shouted: "What kind of weird tricks did you use? You have the opportunity to come out."
"Come out? Haven't I been in front of you all along! What you think is the truth is no longer the true reality. Liu Xi's indifferent voice came from all directions.
The scarred young man looked around in horror, but couldn't find Liu Xi's figure at all, and shouted: "What do you mean?""
"Still don't get it? From the moment I met you, you have been completely captured by my illusion. What you see is what I want you to see, what you hear is what I want you to hear, and from now on, you have failed. Liu Xi's voice rang out from all directions once again.
In the real world, while talking nonsense to the scarred youth, Liu Xi recovered the fighting energy he had just consumed due to the outbreak of violence, and when the fighting spirit was restored, Liu Xi pinched the red flame and calmly walked towards the last scarred youth.
In the eyes of the scarred youth in front of him, a streamer flashed in an instant, turning into Liu Xi's figure, and before he could react, a calm palm imprinted on his chest, and the flames that burst out directly burned him into a serious injury.
After the five of them were unable to resist at all, everything around them seemed to be destroyed, and Liu Xi actually appeared.
Lu Xi walked up to several people, looked down at them condescendingly, and said with a gentle smile: "Now hand over your Fire Crystal Card!" so that they will no longer suffer from flesh and skin. "
Several people instantly looked frightened and discouraged, and asked with a confused face: "How do you know about the Fire Crystal Card?" "
"I saw all the scenes where you snatched the fire energy of the other newborns just now." Liu Xi replied with a playful face.
Lu Xi then took away their Fire Crystal Cards with the expressions of the five people wanting to cry without tears. Looking at the five light blue Fire Crystal Cards in his hand, Liu Xi's eyes were also hot, and he took out his black Fire Crystal Cards and transferred most of their fire energy to his own cards.
Liu Xi looked at his fire crystal card and instantly turned 5 into 213, which was enough for him to cultivate in the Heavenly Incinerator Qi Tower for more than half a year, and this was truly a person who had no sudden income or wealth!
Liu Xi threw the old disciples' fire crystal cards in front of them and said soothingly, "Don't cry and lose face, I still have ten days of fire energy left for you." Alas, I am so merciful!"
The scarred youth looked at the man in front of him who had snatched most of their fire energy, and dared to shamelessly call himself merciful, gritting his teeth with hatred in his heart, but he did not dare to show it on his face.
Lu Xi got what he wanted, then patted him on the head and left, but the news that he had snatched the old disciple's fire energy was also spread by the scarred youth.
Lu Xi in the Scarred Youth's narrative version has a bad temper, strange methods, and is close to the demon because he does not know his name, eventually calling him the Demon King.
