"No matter how reasonable it is, it's not what you taught me to say. Are you praising yourself in disguise?" The girl rolled her eyes at him slightly, but there was joy in her eyes.
After Fang Hui and Lei Qinglan competed, the referee did not call the other disciples to come up, but nodded to Lei Wancheng together.
Lei Wancheng understood and walked to the front of the field to announce the end of the second day's assessment and let everyone rest where they were.
All the disciples felt relaxed. Most of them had completed the assessment. Regardless of whether they were satisfied with the results or not, there was no need to prepare for tomorrow's battle.
Even the core disciples who participated in tomorrow's assessment did not enter meditation immediately. Practicing at this time would not help. As long as you keep your spiritual power strong, it is better to relax and be in better condition.
Only Xu You sat down and fell into meditation before hearing the words "rest where you are".
"This kid is hopeless. He regards boring practice as fun. He is just a boring man. How can he understand the true meaning of life? It seems that he will not be able to find a wife in the future."
When Lei Zhen and others came back from "going to the bathroom" and saw him like this, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
"Shut up." Lei Qinglan was unwilling to hear this and raised her eyebrows, "Xu You has made such rapid progress precisely because he did not waste time and practiced diligently. You lazy guys are all doing nothing.
Don’t you feel ashamed? It’s you who won’t be able to get a wife in the future, Xu You will have a lot of girls begging him to marry!”
"Uh..." Lei Ming and others were stunned.
Their intention was just to tease Xu You, but they didn't expect that Lei Qinglan's nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.
What's going on? Can teasing Xu You also offend Miss Qinglan?
Immediately, a group of scoundrels saw that Lei Qinglan's face was as cold as frost when he scolded them, but when he turned to look at Xu You, a happy and sweet smile suddenly appeared on his face. The difference between the two was no different than the clouds and clouds in the sky.
Mud on the ground.
The scoundrels looked at each other, and then they all looked like they suddenly realized something.
"I seem to understand something, hehehehe..."
"I'm so ashamed, I'm so lazy. Miss Qinglan is right. I will definitely change my ways and learn from Xu You. Tsk tsk. In Miss Qinglan's eyes, Xu You is nothing more than visiting a brothel.
Practicing diligently."
"I'm so ashamed, so ashamed. I won't be able to find a wife in the future. How can I live without a surname in this life!"
Everyone was talking nonsense, and when Lei Qinglan was about to run away, they ran away with their heads in their hands.
Xu You has no awareness of what is happening in the outside world, and devotes himself wholeheartedly to practicing the exercises. This is not due to his diligence. No matter how diligent he is, he will not miss this little time.
In fact, if he hadn't been able to keep his mind as still as he could by entering concentration, Xu You's face would have changed drastically.
The reason why he practiced immediately was because he suddenly had a feeling just now that the Combined Light Technique was about to be perfected.
Once the skill is perfected, it is equivalent to the end of the practice, it will no longer work, and the speed of practice will slow down.
Although there are fellow practitioners of Yuqing Gong and Four Symbols Gong, the cultivation speed can still be maintained at more than ten times that of entering concentration, but it is naturally difficult for Xu You, who is used to fourteen times the speed, to accept it.
This is like being a national-level athlete who was suddenly demoted to the provincial team. Even if he takes the lead in the provincial team, there will be a huge gap.
He sat down and tried his best to slow down the perfection of the Combined Light Technique.
A few hours later, Xu You opened his eyes, his face looking ugly.
Despite his best efforts, the Combined Light Skill inevitably reached perfection. Then, his cultivation speed quickly slowed down, from fourteen times to about ten times.
"The Combined Light Technique has finally been perfected. Although there are Yuqing Technique and Four Symbol Techniques, the cultivation speed is not too slow. However, every time you advance to a higher realm, the spiritual energy required will be several times that of the previous realm, and the cultivation speed can only increase.
, cannot surrender, otherwise I may die of old age before the void is shattered."
"And based on my accumulation, as long as I break through to the late stage of the spiritual body, Yuqing Gong will soon be perfected. By then, only the Four Symbols Gong will be left, and the cultivation speed will drop to only three times that of entering concentration. This is what I can do no matter what.
Unacceptable."
"I must get the first place in the assessment. Only with the reward of that thunder and light skill can my cultivation speed be restored and my speed be improved!"
"First, we must win. At this time, we can no longer keep a low profile."
Xu You thought to himself, clenching his fists involuntarily and becoming extremely eager to take the first place in the assessment.
Soon, the night passed and it was dawn again.
At dawn, a servant came to report that Zhou Jinjun, the head of the Zhou family, had arrived with the core children of the Zhou family.
Lei Zhenshan and others quickly stood up and went out to greet them.
After a while, three people wearing light yellow clothes walked into the training ground accompanied by Lei Zhenshan and others. The leader was an old man about fifty years old. He had a kind-looking face and no power. He was probably the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Jinjun.
.
Zhou Jinjun was followed by a man and a woman. The man was about thirty years old, with a majestic appearance and two slender eyes. The woman was slightly younger, beautiful in appearance, and had a somewhat cold charm as she looked around.
A group of people walked into the south side of the venue. After being polite to each other, the guests and hosts took their seats. A servant stood aside and quickly offered fragrant tea.
"Brother Zhou came here with Brother Yue in previous years. Why is it that this year I'm alone and haven't made an appointment with Brother Yue?" Lei Zhenshan asked with a smile.
Zhou Jinjun raised his eyebrows slightly: "To be honest, Brother Lei, I am also very curious about this matter. Originally, I had an appointment with Mr. Yue, but he insisted on coming later, and he said that he would only bring one mysterious disciple with him this year.
It will make a shocking appearance and will surprise us."
"Oh?" Lei Zhenshan and others suddenly became curious.
"I'm really looking forward to it. When the head of the Yue family comes, I must open my eyes to see which mysterious disciple he brings!" Lei Wancheng said with a smile.
"Could it be Yue Tiancheng? I remember when I went to Yue's house last year to watch the year-end assessment, Yue Tiancheng was the first in the assessment at that time. At that time, he was already at the peak of the late spiritual body, and he should be even stronger now." Lei Dongfang said.
"It's not Yue Tiancheng." Zhou Jinjun shook his head and said, "I specifically asked Mr. Yue. He said that Yue Tiancheng was incomparable to this mysterious disciple. You don't know how proud he sounded at that time. He seemed to be more proud than my Zhou family. You
The best children of the Lei family are much more powerful."
He chuckled, obviously quite dissatisfied with the head of the Yue family.
"Is it stronger than Lei Dong? Then my Lei family is indeed willing to be defeated." Lei Zhenshan smiled slightly.
Zhou Jinjun said calmly: "Brother Lei, it's meaningless for you to say that. Lei Dong is your son, his cultivation has broken through the spiritual realm, and he has stopped participating in the assessment for a long time. How can he be compared together?"
Lei Zhenshan smiled and said: "Lei Dong is my son, but he is also one of the core disciples of the second generation. If brother-in-law comes with that mysterious disciple, I want to see how good he is and whether he can be stronger than Dong'er.
.”
"Okay, Brother Lei, we all know that you have a good son." Zhou Jinjun said slightly unhappy, "But I heard that Lei Dong violated the family rules and has been imprisoned by you for half a year. Even if Mr. Yue comes, you can still let him
come out?"
Lei Zhenshan's smile froze slightly.
Originally, he planned to let Lei Dong out during the assessment, but it was Lei Dongfang who made the decision on punishment at that time, so he had to discuss with the Great Elder before releasing Lei Dong.
The result of the discussion was that Lei Dongfang agreed to let Lei Dong be released from confinement early, but only after an assessment.
Because Lei Dong’s confinement is far less than half a year, if he shows up in the assessment field in such a brazen manner, it will inevitably make the disciples dissatisfied.
Reason was on Lei Dongfang's side, so Lei Zhenshan had no choice but to give in.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, Lei Wancheng quickly changed the subject and said: "Master Zhou, I heard that your year-end assessment has been completed. There must be many outstanding disciples this year, right?"
Only then did Zhou Jinjun's expression soften, and he said with a smile: "I can't say I'm excellent, but there are two little guys I like. At the end of the assessment at the end of this year, there are two kids who are indistinguishable. It's hard for me to choose, so I might as well do both.
Bring them out to see the world. By the way, you two juniors, why don’t you introduce yourselves quickly so that the Lei Family Master and the two elders can get to know each other."
The man and woman had been standing behind Zhou Jinjun without saying a word. After hearing this, they immediately saluted Lei Zhenshan and the others.
"Juniors Zhou Xianlong and Zhou Yunshi pay their respects to the head of the Lei family, the elder Lei and the second elder Lei."
The two spoke loudly, their expressions were modest, but neither humble nor overbearing, very calm, giving people a very outstanding feeling.
"Not bad, not bad." Lei Zhenshan nodded slightly and let the two of them accept the gifts, "Brother Zhou, if I read it correctly, these three disciples have solid internal connotations and profound cultivation. They should all be at the peak of the late spiritual body. They are far away from each other.
The spiritual realm is only one step away."
"Yes." Zhou Jinjun nodded and said with satisfaction, "Moreover, both of them have good combat prowess and have their own characteristics. Although we haven't communicated with each other yet, I feel that they should be no worse than Yue Laoer's proud disciple Yue Tiancheng.
As for your Lei family, they should be on par with last year’s No. 1 Lei family. After the assessment is over, let them compete and communicate."
They spoke without deliberately lowering their voices, so all the disciples could hear them clearly.
Especially when they heard the two family heads starting to compare their children, all the children listened attentively.
Since the three families of Lei, Zhou, and Yue are about the same strength, although they maintain a cooperative and friendly relationship on the surface, secretly the competition is becoming increasingly fierce. The children of the three families will naturally be very concerned about comparisons with the children of the other family.
When Lei Fang heard Zhou Jinjun mention his name, his eyes suddenly focused and he looked towards Zhou Xianlong and Zhou Yunshi.
It happened that the two of them also raised their heads to look at him. The eyes of the three most outstanding disciples met, and fierce sparks instantly collided. There seemed to be a vague intention to fight.
"There is also an outstanding member of the Lei family this year, named Fang Hui. Although he may not be as good as Lei Fang, he should be similar. After the assessment, we can let them compete together."
Lei Wancheng said, reaching out and pointing towards Fang Hui.
