After hearing this, Long Chen apologized to him, and then followed him to the end of the path. Once here, the view in front of him became wider.
Not far ahead, many people were sitting on stone benches, chatting and laughing with each other, and not far from where everyone was sitting, there was a bluestone high platform on which several lithe girls were dancing.
Long Chen's eyes just glanced at the dancer, and finally stopped at a girl wearing a goose-yellow dress.
This woman is sitting on a stone bench, with a slender body and a white gauze covering her face. There is a pure and natural aura flowing around her body.
There was a green guqin placed on the stone table in front of her. As she plucked it with her jade fingers, the strings emitted gentle melody.
The dancing girls twisted their bodies and danced gracefully under the intoxicating music.
"Haha, Junior Brother Long doesn't know her, right?" At this moment, Cao Yang, who was beside Long Chen, said calmly, "That is Senior Sister Zi from the Elite Academy."
"Senior Sister Zi?"
Long Chen nodded when he heard the words, and under Cao Yang's guidance, he came to a stone table and sat down.
After sitting down, Long Chen saw that the ingredients placed on the stone table were not worldly things, but spiritual fruits and spiritual wine.
The warriors sitting at the table were all listening to the music with concentration.
With the mentality of taking things as they come, Long Chen picked up his wine glass and watched the dance while observing the people around him.
After some observation, he discovered that these people were actually among the top thirty in the Tiangang Ranking, and they would all be accompanied by their families.
Turning his eyes, he saw Zhang Ling in the corner.
He was sitting alone in front of the stone table, looking a little out of place. Many people noticed him and showed disdain when they saw the empty seat next to him.
For such a grand event, there is not even a female companion, which is really a bit of a loss.
Therefore, many people deliberately ignored Long Chen when talking, but Long Chen was too lazy to participate, and just poured and drank by himself, enjoying himself.
The sound of the piano continued for a while, and finally slowly subsided. At this time, everyone stood up and complimented the girl in yellow.
"Senior Sister Zi's piano skills are truly superb!"
"Yeah, just now I felt like I was almost immersed in it and couldn't extricate myself."
…
Long Chen looked at these geniuses who were usually very arrogant in front of others and actually expressed such words. He felt a little unbelievable.
He is just an elite disciple, how can he be so respectful?
"Everyone, junior brothers and sisters, please be quiet for a moment!" At this moment, seeing the chaos in the scene, Cao Yang stood up, holding a wine glass, and said, "Let us thank Senior Sister Zi for taking time out of her busy schedule to come to our martial arts exchange banquet.
.”
"Thank you, Senior Sister Zi!" Everyone neatly picked up their wine glasses and looked at the girl in yellow with hot eyes.
The girl in yellow just nodded and said, "You're welcome, please take your seats."
Her voice is very nice and gives people a very comfortable feeling.
"Hey, Junior Brother Long, everyone is toasting to Senior Sister Zi, why don't you?"
At this moment, a scolding suddenly rang out, and everyone was startled, and their eyes instantly turned to Long Chen.
At this time, everyone was standing, but Long Chen was eating and drinking with a nonchalant expression. Even when everyone was looking at him, he didn't pay attention.
Seeing this, the man's face darkened, "Junior Brother Long, did you not hear me or are you deaf?"
Long Chen then slowly raised his head, looked at him, and said, "Who are you? What does it have to do with you whether I toast or not?"
"presumptuous!"
The man stood up, his body full of murderous aura, "I am Wang Tao, who is ranked third on the Tiangang Ranking. Now you'd better come here and apologize, otherwise..."
Wang Tao didn't say any more, but everyone understood what he meant.
Being stared at by so many people, Long Chen remained calm and did not panic at all. Looking at Wang Tao with an angry face, he smiled and said: "You are too lenient. Besides, if I don't apologize, what can you do?"
He naturally knows something about this Wang Tao. He is good at close attacks and has full fighting power. With a pair of iron fists, he has reached the top five in the Tiangang Ranking. He is very famous in the inner courtyard.
Unfortunately, he met Long Chen.
"Okay, okay, okay..." Wang Tao was furious, his face was gloomy, his hair was tumbling, he took a step forward, his body accelerated instantly, and he punched Long Chen.
Wow!
Seeing this, everyone in the crowd immediately stood up and made room for them.
"Reckless man!"
Looking at the charging Wang Tao, Long Chen showed a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth, and with a move of his right hand, his spiritual energy gathered.
Seeing this, Cao Yang, Zhang Ling and others in the distance looked at each other, with an undetectable smile on their lips.
Seeing that a battle was about to begin, at this moment, a yellow figure emerged out of thin air, appeared between the two of them, stretched out a slender jade finger, and touched Wang Tao's fist.
Bang!
At the moment of the impact, Wang Tao's figure trembled, and then he involuntarily stepped back. The huge force shook his face and turned pale.
"Senior Sister Zi, you!"
Although Wang Tao was not injured, he felt very humiliated by being flicked away by the girl in yellow.
"Private fights are prohibited in the academy, don't you know?"
The woman in yellow had a nice voice. She glanced at Long Chen and Wang Tao with her indifferent eyes and said coldly.
The aura on her body was not strong, but it gave people the feeling of being inviolable. Wang Tao glanced at Long Chen and gritted his teeth, "Boy, I will make you look good in the competition tomorrow."
"Haha, I'm happy to accompany you!"
Long Chen smiled lightly and didn't take it seriously.
The girl in yellow frowned when she saw this, but she didn't say anything.
After a while, the banquet started, and the woman in yellow began to share some of her cultivation experiences, while others also shared some of their doubts with her.
All the while, Long Chen was excluded and sat there alone, pouring and drinking.
After a while, the martial arts exchange between everyone ended and they started chatting, during which they would inevitably drink with each other.
Wang Tao walked over from Cao Yang's table holding a wine glass. As he passed Long Chen, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of sarcasm on his lips, "How dare you come to this banquet without even a female companion? It's really embarrassing!"
"Hahaha, that's right, in my opinion, this guy is just here to make fun of you."
"I really don't understand, why would Senior Brother Cao invite someone like him?"
…
A bunch of losers around Wang Tao mocked Long Chen. Long Chen slowly put down his wine glass, raised his head and looked at them, "You are looking for death, do you understand?"
The faint words sounded like thunder exploding in the ears of those people, and blood actually flowed from their ears.
Seeing this, Long Chen put away his soul. When he was talking about flowers just now, he used soul shock. These guys were too mean-mouthed. If they didn't clean up, they really thought they were soft persimmons.
