At dusk, as the sun set in the west, the students from the Wen Palace and the college returned to Guanzhong in the twilight, looking embarrassed.
On the tall tower of the city gate, the black-armored guards standing guard couldn't help laughing when they saw their embarrassed looks.
"Looking at the appearance of those newbies, they must have been manipulated by the demon cultivators again."
"Hahaha... There is no way to escape. Just young melons like them, trying to deal with the demon cultivators as soon as they arrive are simply asking for trouble."
"What's so strange about this? In the past, those liberal arts cultivators who came from all over the world were just like this when they first arrived. They all thought they were elites in colleges or liberal arts colleges, and they became great when they came to us. But in the end
Everyone was treated badly..."
Hearing these ridicules, the faces of the people in Hongye Academy darkened, because their experiences were almost exactly the same as what the guards said.
When Yang Dongqing first agreed to let them go into the mountains to hunt monsters, they were all very confident. They felt that if they were literary cultivators, they would not be able to catch the monster cultivators easily. As a result, their whole team of more than fifty people suddenly
Met five demon cultivators.
There are the violent red-striped demon bears, the flying bloodthirsty bats, the poisonous red-blooded green beasts, and the hard-to-prevent tree demons and vine demons.
Especially the last two, they don't sound very distinctive, and they don't look very powerful, but they are very concealed, and no one will notice them if they stay motionless in the woods.
When Pei Jinghong led the team past, they suddenly launched an attack. The branches and vines almost covered the entire forest. In just an instant, more than half of the people in Hongye Academy lost their fighting power. They followed the other three demon cultivators and transformed into their own bodies.
He came out and yelled at the crowd. Even though Pei Jinghong was a literary master, he was forced to retreat step by step under the hasty challenge, and he was still stained.
In the end, if the black-armored guards hadn't appeared in time, their entire Hongye Academy team would have been wiped out.
After this battle, Pei Jinghong and others no longer had the arrogance and vigor they had at the beginning. Instead, they were like wilted flowers, and the entire team shrank.
Looking at Wen Gong and others, after hearing these words from the guards on the tower, Bai Hao immediately stood up, held his head high and proudly shouted to the people on the tower: "Hey, who said we can
Being cultivated by demons, just because people from some colleges are not good, does not mean that we from the Wen Palace are not good at it. We just caught a demon cultivator and came back, so don’t compare people from certain colleges to us, we are different!"
"..."
When the people from Hongye Academy heard this, their faces turned even darker.
Damn it, is this fat guy trying to conceive of us?!
The guards on the tower were stunned when they heard this, and then said in shock: "What, did I hear it right? These newbies can actually catch a demon cultivator? Isn't that awesome?!"
When Bai Hao heard this, he was not happy and immediately said: "What are you bragging about? Don't underestimate people, okay? If you don't believe me, just ask Captain Yang Dongqing!"
All the black-armored guards on the city wall immediately looked at Yang Dongqing, their eyes full of interrogation.
Yang Dongqing couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene, and said: "Okay, they are right, they did catch a demon cultivator, the leader of the eighth-level iron-backed spider, and he caught it alone."
As soon as these words came out, the guards standing guard on the tower suddenly went crazy.
"What, is it true?"
"Did they really catch the demon cultivator, or the iron-backed spider? How did they do this?"
"He was caught by one person. Is this person a strong literary master?"
Su Ping'an was a little stunned when he saw in the team that catching a demon cultivator could actually cause such a big commotion. But later he understood that here at the border, what the sergeants valued most was not their identity, but their strength.
It is not easy to be a scholar of the literary palace or a literary cultivator from a liberal arts academy, no matter where they come from. Only the capable literary cultivators will be respected here and favored by the soldiers.
After entering the customs, Bai Hao was chattering all the way, telling everyone he met that they had captured the demon cultivator, and when he encountered a team of black-armored guards, he told them about iron-backed spiders. As a result, all the black-armored guards turned around.
He cast a surprised look at them.
This also made the people from Hongye Academy look very unhappy along the way, "What are you talking about? I just caught an iron-backed spider. What's there to show off?"
Someone echoed: "That's right, I heard that the demon cultivator was captured by the literary cultivator named Su Ping'an. He was the guy who tricked us last time in Maverick Town and took away the door number of our house. Didn't that guy say that he wasn't
Are you from the Wen Palace? I really don’t know how the people from the Wen Palace got the nerve to be so arrogant here."
"What a damn bad luck!"
Yang Dongqing saw all this in his eyes, his eyes full of uncontrollable smiles, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The students from these two colleges are really good at writing, but this is good, they can be more capable
Stimulating the fighting spirit of this group may not be a bad thing.
When they returned to the military camp at the border, they saw Xiong Yan, who was as strong as a bull, waiting for them in front of the military camp as soon as they entered the door. As soon as he saw the students coming back, Xiong Yan's eyes with a big beard twitched slightly.
He squinted, then sneered and said: "I asked you to cut down a tree, but why do you guys come back with bear-like faces? Did you go to cut down the tree, or were you cut down by the tree? Have you completed today's task?!"
Everyone in the Wen Palace, who was originally in a good mood, felt something was wrong when they saw the commander's posture.
Su Ping'an subconsciously looked at Yang Dongqing beside him, and saw that the latter was standing in front of the team silently. It seemed that he had no intention of opening his mouth to explain to everyone. On the contrary, there seemed to be a hint of twitching at the corner of his mouth.
Smiling as if watching a play.
This made Su Ping'an realize something was wrong, "Is Captain Yang going to play us together with the Commander-in-Chief? I don't believe that the Commander-in-Chief doesn't know about the demon cultivator appearing outside the city in just one day.
Isn’t it enough to show off by asking us to cut down trees when we first arrived, and we have to do it again?”
Facts have proved that his guess was absolutely correct.
Seeing that no one spoke for them, Wen Liang stood up and said loudly: "Reporting to the commander-in-chief, our task of cutting down the trees was not completed, but we captured a demon cultivator outside the city."
The people in the Wen Palace immediately stood up straight, as if they were showing off their merits.
When Xiong Yan heard this, the sneer on his face became even stronger, "Caught a demon cultivator? But as far as I know, a total of more than ten demon cultivators appeared outside the city this time. You are all elite students of Wen Palace and Hongye Academy.
, and there are so many people, now come and tell me, why did you only catch one, and where were the other demon cultivators?"
"..."
After hearing Xiong Yan's words, everyone was stunned.
Why is the commander's reaction here completely different from the reactions of other soldiers in the city? Shouldn't he be shocked and then praise us?!
Why are you still sounding guilty now?!
When Su Ping'an saw this, he completely understood, "Don't run away. This commander is just playing tricks on us. He doesn't want to make it easy for us at all!"
