I came to challenge you
Xiao Yu had originally wanted to hide the matter of him obtaining the Qilin's blood from Ma Xiaoting and Xiao Tian.
But Ma Xiaoting was still Ma Zhanshan's son. Furthermore, she had always taken care of her sister. Xiao Yu thought about it and decided not to hide it.
Since the storm was going to come sooner or later, then he might as well get even more violent!
Ma Xiaoting and Xiao Tian both did not expect Xiao Yu to actually admit it so straightforwardly.
Ma Xiaoting's eyes flashed. He knew that Xiao Yu trusted him to speak of the truth.
Trust was hard to come by in this world.
Xiao Yu stood by the window with his hands behind his back, staring at the setting sun in the sky.
The setting sun was beautiful, the clouds blooming.
Xiao Yu said: ”Ma Xiaoting, I've seen your father. He's dead! ”
Ma Xiaoting was always calm and composed, calm and composed. However, at this moment, she could not help but tremble in pain.
He fell silent and did not speak.
Xiao Yu continued: ”At that time, the City Lord's Mansion was surrounded by a horde of beasts, everyone was trying to flee for their lives. Elder Ma and Ma Zhanshan were busy fleeing for their lives. When I saw them, Ma Zhanshan was already severely injured. Ma Zhanshan originally wanted to give the Qilin blood to Elder Ma, so Elder Ma would give it to you. In the end, Elder Ma took the opportunity to kill Ma Zhanshan. He wanted to snatch the Qilin blood. But this time, Gu Feiyang came and killed Old Ma. ”Before Elder Ma died, he threw out the Qilin blood and it coincidentally landed by my side …”
Xiao Yu recounted what happened at that time in detail, and said in the end, ”Actually, at the very beginning, I planned to bring the Qilin blood back for you. I can be considered as repaying you for taking care of my sister. However, I was forced onto a cliff by Gu Feiyang and my life was hanging by a thread, so I had no choice but to use Qilin blood. Ma Xiaoting, I owe you a favor. In the future, I will definitely repay you! ”
Xiao Yu was telling the truth.
When Xiao Yu had obtained the Qilin blood, his first thought had also not been for himself. It was all for Ma Xiaoting.
Xiao Yu's character was just like this. He distinguished between kindness and grudges, and was decisive in killing. If it's not for money, everything is up to you.
It was also because of this that Xiao Yu possessed the most precious heart of a scarlet child. It was because of this that he was able to maintain his White Beard Sect's teachings and increase his strength so dramatically in such a short period of time.
Otherwise, Xiao Yu would definitely not have such an achievement.
Ma Xiaoting remained silent for a long while, before she finally said in a hoarse voice, ”My father had always viewed the Qilin's blood more important than anything else. In the past, she could even abandon her wife and children for the blood of the Qilins. Even my sister and I were abandoned by him. I didn't think that he would die for the blood of the Qilins in the end.
Xiao Yu stared at the sky and did not say a word.
This was someone else's family matter, so Xiao Yu did not want to make too much of it.
Ma Xiaoting suddenly stood up and said faintly, ”Xiao Yu, thank you. I am satisfied to have a friend like you. ”
Ma Xiaoting left with Xiao Tian.
Xiao Yu still stood by the window, staring into the sky for a long time before he shifted his gaze. He used the medicine to gently wipe away the swelling on Xiao Ziyu's face. ”Sis, in the future, I won't let anyone bully you anymore.”
Three days later.
Xiao Yu came to Vault Academy as usual.
This was the day of Vault Academy's end of year exam.
During the annual end-of-year exam, everyone would try their best to get a good result so that they could go home and celebrate their ancestors.
Early in the morning, the entire Vault Academy was lit up by lanterns, and the place was bustling with noise and excitement.
Just as Xiao Yu arrived at the school gate, he saw a woman standing there, looking left and right, as if she was waiting for something. After seeing Xiao Yu, the woman quickly walked over: ”Captain.”
Wu Yanran.
The only member of the Xiao Family who had accompanied Xiao Yu to the Vault Academy. and also Xiao Yu's most capable assistant in the Red Tiger Team.
had always been taking care of her, but this time when he saw Wu Yanran, he discovered that the aura around her body was much more vigorous and vigorous than before. He was already an expert of the 4th level of the Profound realm.
When he first came to Vault Mountain, Wu Yanran's cultivation was only at the ninth level of the Yellow realm.
In less than two months, Wu Yanran had reached the 4th level of the Profound realm. Although this rate of improvement was not as monstrous as Xiao Yu's, it was still considered not bad.
However, Xiao Yu was not too surprised.
Firstly, Wu Yanran's will and foundation were extremely solid. The reason why her cultivation had been suppressed before was because she had been living in darkness all year round, unable to bathe in light. Naturally, her progress was very slow.
Now that he was in the Vault Mountain, he was bathed in light for a long time. A martial artist's strength would have an explosive period of time!
Wu Yanran belonged to the type that had more explosive power!
”Yanran!”
Xiao Yu grinned, revealing two rows of pure white teeth.
Wu Yanran smiled and said, ”I heard that you had returned, and I was hoping that you would definitely come to participate in today's end-of-year examination. I'll wait for you here! ”
Xiao Yu said: ”I also want to see how your end of year exam is going!”
Wu Yanran smiled lightly: ”I have just broken through the fourth level of the Profound realm. Naturally, I am unable to compare with you. But I'm very happy that you were able to come and watch my match. ”
Xiao Yu nodded, and the two continued to chat as they walked. Listening to Wu Yanran's narration, Xiao Yu more or less understood that the Mortal Core Academy's end of year assessment was relatively simple, and was mainly divided into the head ranking and last elimination rounds.
Wu Yanran's cultivation was ranked in the top part of the exam, so she was naturally participating in the ranking tournament.
Anyone who reached the fifth level of the Profound realm could enter the Geoscience Institute. Otherwise, they would have to have the strength to defeat experts at the fifth level of the Profound realm in order to enter the Geoscience Institute.
There were 30 new experts in the Mortal Core that had reached the fifth level of the Black Tortoise. Naturally, all of them entered the Geoscience Institute.
In addition, there were over a hundred experts at the 4th level of the Profound realm. All of these were things that could possibly enter the Geoscience Institute. Wu Yanran was one of them!
After Xiao Yu heard it, he said slightly: ”With your strength, you can compete to defeat experts of the fifth level of the Profound realm and enter the Geoscience Institute.”
Wu Yanran also said, ”I also think so. I heard that Geoscience Institute's conditions are very good. The Mortal Core had more resources. If I can enter the Geoscience Institute, I can also slightly keep up with your footsteps, Part of the team leader. ”
Xiao Yu laughed: ”Do your best, I believe that you can!”
Wu Yanran nodded, a dense fighting intent appearing in her eyes.
Xiao Yu said: ”Follow me.”
Xiao Yu left the crowd and walked towards a place with fewer people. Wu Yanran did not speak anymore, and followed along. Finally, the two of them came to a quiet place. Xiao Yu stood still and looked around. Seeing that no one was around, he then said: ”Yanran, demonstrate your martial arts and attack me!”
Wu Yanran was slightly curious, but she did not say much. When they were in Red Tiger Team, they had already gotten used to not asking about the cause of the many times Wu Yanran and their life and death cooperation.
then took out a long sword brazenly, the sword tip shaking, immediately appearing on Xiao Yu's neck, revealing its edge.
Xiao Yu dodged slightly, and then said: ”It's too slow! Again! ”
Wu Yanran once again brandished her sword, causing the sword beams to arrive even faster.
But Xiao Yu still easily dodged: ”It's still too slow. Again! ”
After trying for a hundred times, Wu Yanran was already sweating profusely. She pushed the sword technique to its limit, but did not even touch the corner of Xiao Yu's clothes. She immediately felt an indescribable feeling of helplessness.
Xiao Yu said: ”Although your sword technique is very fast, but it is not imposing enough. I'll pass you a sword technique now. Judging from your performance just now, even if you can't master it in such a short period of time … However, it's still enough to allow your sword arts to improve by a level! ”
