on the ring.

Duan Zhiyuan raised his head and looked at the young man who spoke rudely.

Although the young man was strong in stature, his appearance was still a little immature, and he shouldn't be too old.

Although they can reshape their appearance after cultivating to a certain level, but now these disciples only have the strength of the Qi refining stage, and only when they break through the Nascent Soul stage can they reshape their physical bodies.

Therefore, it is relatively accurate to look at the face at this time.

However, compared with Duan Zhiyuan, who is four and a half years old, even if this person is fourteen or five years old, he is still ten years old than Duan Zhiyuan. It is said that there is a generation gap of three years, and the generation gap between Duan Zhiyuan and this young man has three layers. !

Seeing that Duan Zhiyuan didn't speak, the man intensified even more, even raised his hand and made a false gesture on Duan Zhiyuan's head, hahaha laughed and said, "You are not as tall as my thigh!"

Probably because of the height, Duan Zhiyuan's pain point was really hit here. His cheeks were bulging, and he said angrily, "What's the use of you being so big?! Your strength is not about the same as mine!"

"you!"

The young man was obviously poked by Duan Zhiyuan, and immediately glared at him.

Duan Zhiyuan was also not to be outdone, and also stared back fiercely.

-

If it was placed a year ago, Duan Zhiyuan probably would not have dared to do this.

But after getting along for a year, this clever little guy has roughly figured out his master's temper.

Although the master looks cold and cheerless on the surface, in fact he is not cold at all, and sometimes he even commits ridiculous little stupidity, such as forgetting that all the magic tools are put in the storage bag inside.

Perhaps knowing that there are people in this world who care about him, Xiao Duan Zhiyuan certainly doesn't want to let himself be wronged again.

Because at this time, Duan Zhiyuan already knew that there would be people who would feel sorry for him for being wronged, and as Shen Guantang, he forced himself to stand out, fearing that it would attract some bad comments.

Although Shen Guantang probably didn't care about these things, the little Duan Zhiyuan did.

-

Before the competition officially started, the smell of gunpowder was already full here.

Worried that the two of them would fight before they started, the young man's companion immediately came over and pulled him away.

"Hey, Zhai Ge, tell me how old you are, why are you still fighting with a child?"

"Calm down, calm down, don't get too familiar with a child."

"If you want me to say, what's the point of fighting before the competition? Let's see the real chapter after the competition starts!"

"Okay, you don't have to say a few words! You care about a four or five-year-old kid, and it's not embarrassing enough to spread it!"

"Hey, you're wrong. Although that kid is only four years old, he's already in the early stage of qi refining. Let's say we and the group of people can do this? Can't Bar?"

"Besides, we usually speak based on our strength, and we won't show mercy just because someone is young."

-

After the man walked away, Duan Zhiyuan also let out a sigh of relief quietly. To be honest, he was a little nervous about facing a group of people alone, but he must not lose face!

"You are, Duan Zhiyuan?"

Suddenly, a pleasantly surprised voice sounded from behind Duan Zhiyuan. He turned around and asked with some doubts, "Who are you?"

After confirming Duan Zhiyuan's identity, the visitor was very excited. He has a beautiful appearance, and his figure is a little thin. The tight waistband stretched out his thin waist. His hair was all tied up behind his head and tied into a high ponytail. The whole person looked very energetic.

There was a long sword hanging by the side of the man, with a red tassel hanging from the top of the hilt, and it was dangling back and forth with the master's movements.

After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Duan Zhiyuan blinked his eyes and asked hesitantly, "Have we met before?"

It looks a little familiar.

"Yes!" The man nodded heavily, "My name is Xu Lingjing. I was in the library a year ago! Thanks to Junior Brother Duan and Elder Shen for helping out."

Hearing Xu Lingjing mention the library, Duan Zhiyuan immediately remembered it, and he said pleasantly, "So it's you! It's such a coincidence that you were assigned to the same arena in the disciple competition!"

"It's really a coincidence." Xu Lingjing nodded with a smile, "Maybe it's a destiny somewhere."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Xu Lingjing looked at the monks gathered in twos and threes not far away, frowned gradually, and sighed, "It's just that our luck is really bad. There are too many people in the realm of great perfection."

From a rough look, among the hundred people, almost one-third of the monks were in the realm of Qi Refining Dzogchen.

After hearing Xu Lingjing's words, Duan Zhiyuan's face suddenly crumpled, "Doesn't that mean that it will be difficult to enter the top ten out of a hundred people this time?"

"It's very difficult." Xu Lingjing's face was serious, and at the same time he said to Duan Zhiyuan with some helplessness, "You probably don't know that the few people with the highest strength in Qi Cultivation Dzogchen are all in our arena."

"They are all monks who are only one step away from being promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage. The reason why they have been reluctant to be promoted is that... they are waiting for this disciple competition."

With the strength of the Great Perfection Realm of Qi Refining, he can almost sweep the arena in the Qi Refining Stage, but if he enters the Early Foundation Establishment Stage, there is basically no hope.

Duan Zhiyuan's expression gradually became serious, "It seems that we are really not very lucky."

"But I still won't give up!" Duan Zhiyuan clenched his fists.

-

"Lingjing, so you are here too."

Suddenly, a refined and humble voice sounded not far away.

Xu Lingjing and Duan Zhiyuan turned their heads together, and saw a young man in a royal blue brocade suit walking towards them with a chuckle.

"Brother Huan!"

Seeing that it was Huan Ru, Xu Lingjing felt relieved. Seeing Duan Zhiyuan's bewildered face, he immediately explained to him, "This is Huan Ru, Senior Brother Huan!"

Duan Zhiyuan raised his head, just in time to meet Huan Ru's downcast eyes, and the two eyes separated immediately.

Huan Ru smiled lightly, "I know you."

"what?"

"Elder Shen's personal disciple, that peerless genius with no attributes and a single spiritual root." Huan Ru said slowly, "I have admired your name for a long time, and today I finally see it. It really lives up to its name."

Duan Zhiyuan pursed his lips and raised his hand in a salute, "Thank you for your compliment, Senior Brother."

Xu Lingjing scratched his hair. For some reason, he always felt that the current atmosphere was a bit strange, but he couldn't say exactly where it was strange.

Just when the few people were silent, they suddenly heard the sound of a drum, and a long voice sounded in the valley, "Ten more breaths, the competition will officially begin."

-

Xu Lingjing quickly seized the time and said to Duan Zhiyuan, "I'm in the middle stage of Qi refining now, and Junior Brother Duan is in the early stage of Qi refining. Why don't you and I form an alliance so that we can try our best to protect ourselves in this ring."

With so many Qi refinements completed, Xu Lingjing no longer has much hope for the top ten. His only purpose now is to protect himself in this scuffle.

Although it is the first time to participate in the disciple competition, but before that, Xu Lingjing has asked his senior brothers to inquire about it. In the disciple competition, there are still some casualties. Although the number is small, the reason why accidents are accidents is that Because it's unpredictable.

Besides...

Perhaps because of his experience, Xu Lingjing didn't trust the Jindan stage monks who were responsible for the safety of the arena and avoiding casualties, because as long as they were human beings, they could be bribed, depending on whether the price offered was attractive enough.

Furthermore, he believed in himself more than putting his life on others.

-

Duan Zhiyuan didn't think much about it, he still had a good impression of Xu Lingjing, so he immediately agreed.

But soon, Huan Ru spoke.

"I wonder if I can take Huan with me?"

Xu Lingjing said with a hearty smile, "With Senior Brother Huan's perfect state of refining Qi, if he is willing to form an alliance with the two of us, then it would be great!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Lingjing asked Duan Zhiyuan again, "Junior Brother Duan, what do you think?"

Duan Zhiyuan glanced at Huan Ru, said nothing, but nodded.

It seemed that the strange and awkward atmosphere was about to permeate again, only to hear the sound of the drum again, and the disciple competition officially started.

Duan Zhiyuan immediately felt a malicious gaze falling on him.

Immediately afterwards, the attack followed that malice——

-

Seeing Duan Zhiyuan being attacked by someone, Shen Guantang held his breath for a moment, even the hand under the little fox's buttocks clenched the Lingshi in his hand, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, as if he would not be able to bear it in the next moment. Hold the shot.

However, in the next moment, Shen Guantang saw Duan Zhiyuan defuse the man's attack deftly, and with his strength, directly hit the man by surprise and disabled him.

Immediately afterwards, the two monks beside Duan Zhiyuan also made moves together, and the three of them leaned against their backs, forming a cornering situation, and jointly fought against the surrounding enemies.

Seeing this, Shen Guantang breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they only got along with each other for a year, Shen Guantang was also busy with his disciple Dabi, which took up part of the time.

However, the master-student relationship between Shen Guantang and Duan Zhiyuan is steadily heating up.

When accepting Zhiyuan, Shen Guantang actually felt uneasy. He didn't have much experience with three- and four-year-old children, but he had more experience with three- and four-year-old cats and dogs.

According to Shen Guantang's stereotype, children of this age are mostly the kind who dislike cats and dogs.

But Duan Zhiyuan is completely different, he...sometimes is so sensible that Shen Guantang feels distressed.

Shen Guantang even hinted to Duan Zhiyuan through Ye Li that he doesn't have to be so sensible, he can act coquettishly or be self-willed appropriately.

After all, he is only four and a half years old now, and he is still a child. Even if he is the leading actor, he still has to go through childhood, right?

But, obviously, Duan Zhiyuan didn't listen to Ye Li's words.

When getting along with Duan Zhiyuan, Shen Guantang could always sense the longing in his big black eyes.

Shen Guantang guessed, did this child place the expectations of his father on himself?

After realizing this, Shen Guantang immediately became more relaxed.

Compared with being a teacher for a child, Shen Guantang is even more inexperienced in being a father to others. After all, in his previous life, in his short life, he was either studying hard or secretly saving money to go to a cat cafe to pet cats.

He doesn't even have experience in love, let alone being a father to a child.

After thinking about it, Shen Guantang can only refer to his previous experience of taking care of cats and dogs. After all, human cubs and cat and dog cubs are all cubs.

Shen Guantang has never been stingy with his praise when he did the right thing, but if he did the wrong thing, it would be much more troublesome. manage?

Fortunately, Duan Zhiyuan didn't create any problems for Shen Guantang.

-

Looking at Duan Zhiyuan who was still able to do a job in the ring at this time, Shen Guantang's chest was filled with a very strange emotion.

That emotion is called pride.

At this time, Shen Guantang had forgotten the so-called original plot in his mind, and he was proud of his disciple.

Not for anything else, just because that is the disciple he has spent all his time and effort teaching seriously.

Even when the little fox in his arms was wagging its tail and rubbing against his chin, it was rare for Shen Guantang not to lower his head, and only lightly pressed the little fox's head with his hand, and softly reprimanded, " Xue Tuan'er, don't make trouble."

Little Fox:……

-

On the arena, Duan Zhiyuan sprinkled a handful of wood seeds in his hand, and the seeds grew when they fell to the ground, and quickly piled up a wall of grass and trees in front of them.

But the bad thing is that many of the people who attacked them had spiritual roots of the fire attribute. Seeing that the wall of grass and trees was about to be burned through——

Huan Ru suddenly turned his head slightly, and glanced at Duan Zhiyuan out of the corner of his eye.

In the next moment, the flames filled the air, and all the three besieged people fell into the sea of ​​flames——

The author says:

Last second: Shen Guantang: My apprentice is amazing!As expected of the hero!

Next second: Duan Zhiyuan: Caught in a sea of ​​flames, life or death is unknown.
