At this moment, a steady and strong hand grabbed Xiao Xiao's wrist.
Xiao Xiao trembled slightly. She turned her head blankly and saw the young man's firm and deep eyes.
After a while, Xiao Xiao's eyes slowly closed, and her raised left hand finally dropped. The girl's delicate body leaned against Jiang Yun.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
At this time, one of the regular team members finally came to his senses, ran to Xu Tianzhen's side, and helped her up from the ground. Although the dark claws had long since dispersed, Xu Tianzhen's face was still pale at this moment, and her body was trembling slightly. Even
, where she got up, there was still a pool of water on the ground.
After Xu Tianzhen stood up, without saying a word, he threw the regular member away and quickly left, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Jiang Yun also picked up Xiao Xiao, said goodbye to Xiao Hongchen and others, and then left the training ground.
Holding the unconscious girl in his arms and walking on the road to the infirmary, Jiang Yun's face turned slightly gloomy.
Although he didn't understand why Xiao Xiao was able to explode with such terrifying destructive power at that moment; but he was certain that if Xiao Xiao had really unleashed the 100,000-year-old soul skill of the Dread Demonic Dragon's left arm bone just now, Xu Tianzhen would have
If you don't die on the spot, it will leave you with irreparable damage.
In Jiang Yun's view, Xu Tianzhen's death was not a pity; but if Xiao Xiao really killed Xu Tianzhen, everything would be irreversible.
After being sent to the infirmary, the doctor diagnosed that Xiao Xiao only fainted due to excessive use of soul power and excessive mental fluctuations. There was nothing serious, so Jiang Yun felt relieved.
An hour later, the girl let out a low moan and woke up.
When she woke up, she saw Jiang Yun sitting by the bed, holding one of her hands and looking at her.
"Xiao Xiao, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Jiang Yun asked softly.
Xiao Xiao shook his head, showed a gentle smile, and replied: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just that my soul power is a bit consumed. I can still participate in the competition normally."
Jiang Yun hesitated for a moment, then said: "Xiao Xiao, I hate some people too, and I have always dreamed of changing this country. However, we are still too weak now, and we do not have enough strength to fight against those people.
.Do you still remember what I told you? One day, I will bury the monarchy!"
"I know, of course I know."
Xiao Xiao held Jiang Yun's hand tightly, with a strange light shining in his eyes.
"In my eyes, you have always been the brightest Chang Geng star. You have so many lofty ideals that you want to realize. But I am a useless person. I have made such big mistakes. I am
A sinner. If I kill that princess, then I will die again."
"Stop talking!"
Jiang Yun frowned slightly and scolded loudly.
"No one in this world can judge who is more valuable than whom. The person you owe is Xiaobing, not me; you still have to atone for your sins from Xiaobing. If you sacrifice for me, what does that mean?
?”
Jiang Yun held the girl's hand, sighed softly, and said.
"Don't have such thoughts anymore, okay? Even if you want to give up on yourself, I will not give up on you. I do have many lofty ideals, and they are so dazzling in front of my eyes. This may be a bit
Arrogant, but I still want to say something, Xiao Xiao, are you willing to work with me to build my ideal?"
Xiao Xiao stayed where she was; at this moment, in her eyes, this thirteen-year-old boy seemed to be shining with the colors of the sun.
Xiao Xiao, are you willing to build my ideal with me?
Bury the nobility, bury the ideal of the monarchy. There will no longer be hungry people falling on the snow. The ideal that everyone has food to eat and clothing to wear. The ideal that hard work can lead to wealth, and kindness can be achieved in the world.
"Yes, I do!"
Xiao Xiao held the boy's hand, and crystal tears burst from her eyes.
————————————————————————
The next day, when everyone went out, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding, and no one talked about what happened yesterday.
The teacher who leads the team is named Lin. He is a tall and thin middle-aged man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. As an eighth-level soul mentor, he serves as the leader of this competition.
Star Luo City is located in the southeast of the mainland, eight thousand miles away from Mingdu. It can be said to be "all over the world". Before the official opening of the competition, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy team has reserved a full nine days
time.
Everyone first took the railway and spent five days comfortably arriving at the border between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire; then, everyone showed their certificates as participants, entered the Star Luo Empire, and then each loaded up the flying soul guide.
, flew towards the direction of Xingluo City.
On the first night, everyone landed in a small village in the Bedoxi Province of the Star Luo Empire, preparing to rest for the night and set out again early the next morning. After a day's journey, everyone was a little tired.
This village is located by a small river. It is not very large and has a population of less than a thousand households. On the thatched village gate, there is a wooden sign that has decayed due to the sun and rain. Jiang Yun is still vaguely alive.
If you can make out the letters above, they should be "Emperor Soul Village".
Looking at this wooden sign, a friendly look flashed in Xiao Xiao's eyes. In the three countries that originally belonged to Douluo Continent, many villages were named in this way. If a village has a soul emperor, this village may become
Renamed "Emperor Soul Village".
Coincidentally, although Xiao Xiao's parents live in the city, she has many relatives who live in a rural area also called "Emperor Soul Village" outside the city. That village was once a thousand years ago.
A soul emperor is considered the most noble person in the whole village.
Looking at this village, Jiang Yun couldn't help but think of the famous "Holy Soul Village" in history. When he was studying abroad at Shrek Academy, the teachers there had mentioned it countless times that it was the birthplace of Poseidon Tang San.
This place is a great holy place in history.
It's a pity that this village has long since ceased to exist. After Tang San ascended and left, during the brutal mainland war that lasted for more than thirty years, the Holy Soul Village was also unfortunately destroyed by the war.
"Foreigners from afar, you are distinguished guests. Our village is too humble, and I'm afraid it's not suitable to entertain you."
The village chief of Emperor Soul Village came out, coughed slightly, and said. Facing these people from the Sun and Moon Empire of unknown origin, the old man's face clearly showed fear and a touch of hostility.
"Old sir, what is your name? We are just resting here for one night and will leave the next morning. We will pay you for your stay."
Teacher Lin, who was leading the team, saluted and said politely.
Facing this man who was either a noble or a soul master and saluted him, the old village chief had an obviously flattered look on his face.
"Just call me Old Jason. I am the mayor of this village. Do you think you will pay for the accommodation? Ahem."
"Yes. There are fifteen of us in total. Each of us has one Gintama Coin. We will pay you fifteen Gintama Coins tomorrow morning. What do you think?"
