Under normal circumstances, the competition between the disciples of the Holy Academy and the Immortal Academy is fierce, and they are very dissatisfied with each other, and even conflict from time to time.
Such a combination is indeed somewhat inconsistent.
But after thinking about it, Yang Di felt relieved again. Although the competition between the two houses was the general trend, internally, the disciples under the two houses may have some closer connections, such as coming from the same sect and ethnic group.
The inheritance of giants like the eight major clans have been deployed in the two courtyards for a long time, so it is not surprising that this situation occurs.
The current group is obviously made up of young people from several ethnic groups. They probably have very close personal relationships secretly. Not only will there be no conflict, but they can also easily join forces.
This is not simple, because according to legend, the methods inherited by the two houses are complementary to a certain extent, and many wonderful methods complement each other. Together, they can exert stronger combat effectiveness.
At this moment, the members of this mixed group suddenly invited Yang Di and the others. It was obvious that they were not interested in drinking, and their tone did not show much sincerity.
Yang Di, Lang Ping, and Su Su felt cold. The other party did not want to cooperate at all, but wanted to annex these people.
This approach can not only strengthen the momentum of the group, but also reduce the competitive pressure of the group in the future. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
But it is conceivable that if Yang Di and others accepted this invitation, they would definitely receive unfair treatment, and they might even be arranged to serve as cannon fodder.
Yang Di said nothing. As of now, Senior Brother Lang Ping is mainly in charge of this team, and it is not convenient for him to dominate the team.
Lang Ping did not flinch. Faced with the invitation from the group of people with ulterior motives, Lang Ping calmly clasped his fists and smiled and said: "Thank you for your kindness, brothers. However, I just want to hang around in the neighborhood right now. I am not strong enough to help you, so I'm afraid.
I have no choice but to continue on the road alone!”
Lang Ping's words were a little euphemistic, but it did not hinder what he wanted to express.
Sure enough, after hearing these sophistry and rejections, the faces of the disciples across from me were a little ugly.
The man who spoke just now said coldly: "It doesn't matter. Since we, as elders, have the obligation to take care of the young people, just let us go and don't worry about those details."
"You are still too immature and young and energetic, so you should follow your elders, otherwise you may lose your life." Someone next to him agreed.
"It seems that you have already encountered trouble just now. It seems that the losses are not small. This should make you more aware of the dangers of this place."
A blue-haired man with electric eyes glanced at Yang Di and the others casually, with a somewhat playful look on his face.
Yang Di and the others had lost more than a dozen people before, and quite a few of them had been seriously injured. Naturally, they couldn't hide this bleak situation from the other party.
However, it is a bit hateful for the other party to ask questions knowingly. He is simply taking pleasure in others' misfortune and deliberately exposing others' wounds.
Yang Di looked sideways, and saw that the blue-haired man was tall, with vague steam coming from his body. He was quite extraordinary, and he seemed to be the leader of the group.
The other party suddenly showed this attitude, obviously he had been observing them for a long time.
Lang Ping frowned and said, also a little displeased: "We did encounter some troubles, but we won't be completely defeated. I'd like to thank all senior brothers for your troubles!"
He had been a little more restrained before, but now, with the other party being so rude, he couldn't continue to show weakness.
The blue-haired man chuckled and said jokingly: "So, you guys don't want to appreciate it?"
As he spoke, he took two steps forward slightly, and a powerful oppressive aura filled the air. As he puffed up his chest, a pattern of five shining gold stars was revealed on his chest.
This person comes from the Holy Academy and is a fifth-term inner disciple!
Such an identity is indeed shocking. Even Lang Ping has a solemn expression. There are not many people who can study for five terms in the two colleges. No one is a simple role.
At this moment, it was obvious that the other party was beginning to threaten them forcefully and was going to use strong force to force them to submit.
"Those guys can't understand human speech? We are unwilling to cooperate. Could it be that they will take the opportunity to turn against us?" Wei Chen said angrily.
Lang Ping, Su Su and others looked solemnly. It seemed that they had underestimated the intentions of that group of people. The other party obviously wanted to do more than just annex them.
Yang Di said calmly: "These people came from that direction. They obviously encountered trouble during the exploration process and planned to find a breakthrough from us."
"Breakthrough?" Xu Bai was startled, then suddenly realized.
"How shameless!" Xuelin scolded with great disdain. Those people talked about cooperation and care, but their real purpose was probably because they were looking for clues about them.
After thinking about this, Su Su's pretty face suddenly became a little nervous. It was hard for her to bring the glazed lamp out from the clan. If someone took it away, it would be difficult to explain it back.
In an instant, the atmosphere here became tense. In addition to the blue-haired man, several older disciples around him were also releasing powerful auras without concealment.
Among Yang Di and his group, several new disciples looked a little pale, and this battle was obviously not good for them.
Lang Ping's eyes were slightly cold, and he asked Yang Di in a low voice: "Junior brother, are you confident that you can compete with the second and third figures among them?"
Yang Di looked up and saw that the number two and three figures Lang Ping mentioned should be the two fourth-term disciples beside Lang Ping.
One of those two people came from the Holy Academy, and the other came from the Tianxian Academy. Among the other people, their apparent strength should be second only to the blue-haired man.
Yang Di was slightly surprised. He seemed to have underestimated the courage of Senior Brother Lang Ping. The latter was polite but not at all afraid of trouble. Even when faced with such a group of jackals, tigers and leopards, he was determined to compete with each other.
Yang Di nodded slightly and said: "Okay."
Lang Ping was moved, then showed a bit of a smile, looked up at the group of people opposite, and responded in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "If you brothers think so far-fetched, then there is nothing we can do about it!"
As soon as he said this, his uncompromising stance was already revealed, which made the people around him nervous but also very excited.
To be honest, the arrogant attitude of the blue-haired man is really annoying. If senior brother Lang Ping hadn't suppressed them, someone would have gone crazy.
In such a situation, whether the strength is equal is one thing, but whether to surrender is another matter entirely!
"I don't know what's wrong!" Beside the blue-haired man, the fourth-term senior from Tianxian Academy looked cold and was about to step forward to take action.
Although this person is also studying in Tianxian Academy, he has no tolerance for Yang Di and other junior brothers and sisters. Instead, he has an indifferent attitude and wants to be the first to take action.
Lang Ping's eyes didn't dodge, and Yang Di stood up casually. At this point, there was nothing more to say. He could only show his true skills to make the other party stop.
Unexpectedly, before the fourth-term senior from the Immortal Academy could explode, a slender wrist had already been raised to stop him.
It was the blue-haired man who stopped him. Unexpectedly, after Yang Di and the others responded forcefully, the oppressive aura on the blue-haired man immediately dissipated, and a playful smile appeared on his face.
The blue-haired man waved to his people, then glanced at Yang Di and the others, and said calmly: "Then I wish you a safe journey, and we will see you soon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he left with his people simply.
Seeing this scene, Su Su, Wei Chen, and Little Fatty were all quite surprised, so it was resolved like this?
Lang Ping was also relieved and sighed: "If you want to gain a foothold in a place like this, you still have to show enough courage. Although the opponent's overall strength is far better than ours, in this environment, their focus is not on fighting with us.
, Furthermore, there are several troops around who are as confident as them, and that blue-haired senior brother knows very well the consequences of fighting us to the death!"
Hearing what he said, everyone suddenly woke up, it turned out to be so.
This threat from the other side was obviously more of a paper tiger than a thunder, and it was not really about a fight with them.
A young man said with admiration on his face: "Senior Brother Lang Ping is resourceful and has great perseverance. If you hadn't seen through the other party's tricks, we would have almost fallen into their trap!"
Senior Sister Su Su also smiled lightly and was very satisfied with Lang Ping's performance. She had previously invited the latter to cooperate and carry the banner. In addition to the previous friendship between the two, more importantly, she was very aware of Lang Ping's strength and ability.
Lang Ping smiled bitterly and shook his head: "We can't be happy just yet. Although the other party is not determined to go to war with us, after such a toss, the other party must have a grudge and may ambush us halfway. You should be careful."
Yang Di nodded secretly. It had to be said that Senior Brother Lang Ping was indeed commendable in many aspects. He was neither arrogant nor impetuous, which was rare for a leader.
When they were on the road again, Lang Ping came up to him in private and explained with a chuckle: "You don't have to worry, little junior brother. In the trouble just now, you also gave me confidence. As for the partiality of these guys, you don't have to take it to heart. Time
Over time, they will naturally support you sincerely!"
Yang Di was dumbfounded. In fact, he didn't care about this, and he didn't care whether the people around him admired him.
Moreover, in this matter, compared to these, Yang Di cares more about the details.
Just now when Senior Brother Lang Ping was preparing for the showdown, he asked himself whether he could deal with the second and third figures in the group.
The subtext of this kind of inquiry is obviously that he hopes that after a conflict breaks out, he can at least stop one of the opponent's masters.
But there was one detail. Senior Brother Lang Ping never asked whether he could fight against the blue-haired man. This obviously meant that someone had blocked the blue-haired man.
Who could this person be? There is no doubt that it must be Lang Ping himself.
In other words, when making that decision, Lang Ping himself at least had the confidence to challenge the blue-haired man. No matter what the outcome was, there would definitely not be any room for struggle.
This surprised Yang Di. It seemed that he had underestimated the strength of Senior Brother Lang Ping, and the latter seemed to be hiding it...
