Companionship

"Lu Mu?"

Xiao Yan repeated the name in a low voice. He raised his eyebrows slightly after seeing Teacher Ruolin's serious expression. Looking at the expressions of the people around him, his cousin seemed to have encountered a difficult guy.

"En." Xiao Yibai smiled very plainly, pouted his mouth in one direction, pulled Xiao Yan to sit in an empty seat beside him, and said softly, "It's him, the top five in the inner court selection competition. A strong contender for the name, from the alchemy department."

On the other side of the stand, there is a conspicuous young man in blue. The young man has his hair down casually, with a slack look on his face, and his tall and straight body, which makes people feel kind.As if he noticed Xiao Yibai's eyes, the man also smiled back at them.

The man's not-so-handsome face had a special charm because of this friendly smile, as if he was expressing kindness to Xiao Yibai and the others.

After noticing Lu Mu's smile, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows lightly, the corners of his mouth raised inexplicably, and said in his usual tone, "This Lu Mu...looks quite unworthy of a beating."

"Ahem..." The corners of Xiao Yibai's mouth twitched, he glanced at Xiao Yan who looked normal, stretched out his hand to rub his neck, and looked suspiciously at Lu Mu's harmless face again.There was a hint of weirdness in his eyes.

Hearing Xiao Yibai's conversation, Tutor Ruolin gave them a helpless look, and followed Xiao Yibai's eyes to look in that direction.After a quick glance, he looked at Xiao Yibai who didn't seem to be paying much attention. He gave the latter a slight resentment, and reminded, "Be careful of the flames he controls."

"That's right, brother Yibai, you really have to be careful." Xiao Xun'er also turned sideways and said to Xiao Yibai.During the conversation, she also paid attention to Xiao Yan. After noticing the latter's expression, Xiao Xun'er was quiet for a while, suddenly smiled lowly, took a light breath, and then continued softly, "Sister Xun'er is sorry for you. Very confident."

Xiao Xun'er's tone was as usual, but for no reason it made people feel a little ethereal, as if something was contained in it.However, after finishing speaking, Xiao Xun'er continued to focus on the stage, so no one noticed that the girl's hands were quietly playing with a strand of hair.

Hearing this, Xiao Yibai turned his gaze back, was silent for a while, then smiled, and didn't continue to say anything.

……

"No.30 Eighth round: Lu Mu of the refining department, against Xiao Yibai, the second class of the Huang rank."

On the referee's bench, a referee slowly stood up, looked around the field for a while, and finally said aloud.

The noisy square was silent for a while, and immediately countless eyes shifted to Xiao Yibai with a swish. Naturally, there were various meanings in those eyes.

Everyone is witnessing the play of these two people.

Everyone is wondering who is the winner in this match.

Lu Mu, who was the party concerned, walked up to the stage and smiled, and cupped his hands enthusiastically. Jun's face was filled with a joyful smile. After noticing that Xiao Yibai had also stepped onto the stage, he showed a kind smile to the latter. .

He first looked towards the audience, then turned to the referee and said, "I admit defeat in this game."

The words were clear and the tone was flat, but it caused an uproar.

Bai Shan, who had been watching the game indifferently, was also condensed in his heart. He frowned slightly when he saw the man with a flat expression on the stage. He knew Lu Mu's strength very well, and he didn't know Xiao Yibai's specific strength, but Lu Mu never None of them are fearful of the field.Why did he admit defeat? Bai Shan looked at the stage thoughtfully, thinking secretly, what was the reason.

This is also the question that most people in the square are talking about. At this time, they are waiting with bated breath for the next situation. For them, this is a scene full of drama.

"In this game, Xiao Yibai, the second class of Huang Jie, won!"

The people sitting in the referee's seat were also stunned for a moment, and finally looked meaningfully at the two people in the stands, and announced the result loudly.

Hearing this voice, Xiao Yibai frowned, turned his eyes, and Qingyue's voice sounded from him, "Can I ask why?"

Lu Mu was taken aback, then smiled, with a smile in his eyes, and said word by word, "Because, I don't want to fight with you." After uttering these words, Lu Mu chuckled again, and turned his head to face the stage. go down.

The moment he turned his head, the smile on Lu Mu's face also dissipated, and he sighed in a low voice.

Standing quietly for a while, Xiao Yibai looked suspiciously at Lu Mu's leaving back, nodded slightly to the referee who was looking at him, and also walked off the stage.

"I'll go! Lu Mu, what does this mean? Because Miss Mao Ben smelled something unusual."

"What do you mean I don't want to fight with you?!"

"Oh my god, is it swollen today, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah."

"What is his subtext..."

Xiao Yan kept watching everything on the stage. When he heard what Lu Mu said, the expression on his delicate face froze for a moment, and he kept clenching his sleeves tightly. He squinted his eyes and watched Lu Mu leave. The back slightly lowered his eyes.

His heart...is in a mess...

"Brother Yibai, have you met Lu Mu before?" Xiao Xun'er raised her head and asked the handsome young man in front of her.

"No." After thinking for a while, Xiao Yibai shook his head, and then looked at the place where Lu Mu was. Lu Mu's move was because of... what?

……

"Senior Lu Mu, why did you admit defeat? Obviously, you are a genius in our alchemy department." After Lu Mu came back, a woman finally couldn't help asking, with a strong sense of resentment in her tone, Her pretty face became a little distorted because of her excitement. Obviously, she was very dissatisfied with Lu Mu's behavior.

When the people around heard her words, they all looked here, and turned their ears to listen to Lu Mu's answer.

However, to everyone's disappointment, Lu Mu just smiled, then sat aside, not intending to speak at all.

Lu Mu cast his eyes on the stands calmly, as if he wasn't the one who gave up on the spot just now, seeing him like this, the others stopped talking.

He picked up an object, and after he met Xiao Yibai, there was a slight change in this object, but he couldn't give it up, even... it might have belonged to Xiao Yibai originally.

So...he felt a little guilty...
