Chapter 32: Courtesy?
Chapter 32: Showing your diligence?
The defeat of Shanxiong was not very great for Nie Kong, but it only gave him a more thorough understanding of his own heart. Just like the "Purple Phantom Spirit Scent" branch suddenly popped up from behind Shanxiong, others felt it was a bit incredible, but Nie Kong felt it was very simple.
He just quietly separated a wisp of his heart before being bound by Shanxiong's thunder net, penetrated into the ground, and then controlled it to reach behind Shanxiong. However, under Nie Kong's control, the wisp of his heart, which was covered by spiritual power, did not reveal any aura fluctuations.
It is not difficult for Nie Kong to do this. The world is full of vitality, but there are only a few people who can sense vitality. After Nie Kong's spiritual power evolved into the essence of spiritual treasures, it merged with vitality more perfectly, and it became easier to conceal the fluctuations of the aura of spiritual power.
However, for other spirit transformers, it is difficult to do this.
Therefore, although Nie Kong did not be proud of defeating Shanxiong, the eyes of the disciples around him looked at Nie Kong unconsciously changed a little. It is no wonder that Shanxiong's reputation in the inner city was too famous. In last year's inner city competition, he made great progress and defeated all opponents like a devastating battle, squeezed into the final first battle, and finally defeated Lan Shang with a very small weakness.
Such an excellent disciple was defeated by Nie Kong, who had just reached the ninth level of the Spirit Transformation yesterday, and he was so embarrassed to lose. If Nie Kong hadn't shown mercy, Shanxiong would have been carried out of the Ascension Palace with bare body instead of being wrapped in a circle of fig leafs and left with a vertical edge!
Such unexpected results can be imagined in the hearts of those disciples in the inner city.
Nie Kong also knew that he was a bit popular this time, but this was inevitable. Moreover, Nie Kong had never really been low-key since he came to this world. He used to attract attention and improve his status in the Nie family, and then went to Lingyu City to learn the secrets of Yinxu more quickly. At that time, Nie Kong had to be high-profile, but now he did not need to be low-key, and let it go naturally.
Skipping everyone's eyes, Nie Kong walked towards Miao Ge and others, but after a few steps, Kan Tian appeared next to him like a ghost, and said with a smile: "No, yes, even Shanxiong is no match for him. It seems that my idea has changed a little. If you can stay in Lingyu City after the Lingyu City, the future Lingyu City Lord will definitely be between you and Lan Shang. Of course, this will happen decades later, so let's talk about it first..."
"Bang!"
Before Kan Tian could express the four words "soul incarnation", Nie Kong sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, and his face calm. Kan Tian's voice stopped abruptly. Seeing Nie Kong's posture, Kan Tian didn't understand Nie Kong's thoughts, but the old man was not angry at all. He still had a kind smile on his chubby face, and he also banged the disciples in the inner city to the side, as if he was afraid that they would affect Nie Kong's spiritual power to restore.
When they saw this scene, not only the disciples in the inner city around them looked at each other in shock, but Miao Ge, Taji and others also looked surprised. What happened today? The deputy city lord who had been locked up in the "spiritual cultivation world" for most of the time actually showed his diligence to Nie Kong?
That's right, just show your kindness?
The actions of the deputy city lord Kan Tian gave everyone the most intuitive feeling. Could it be that Nie Kong is the illegitimate son of the deputy city lord? After thinking for a while, everyone couldn't understand it, so they had to continue watching the second competition that was about to begin, but the doubts in their hearts were lingering...
At first, Nie Kong planned to wait for Kan Tian to leave and slip away quietly, but felt that Kan Tian showed no sign of being away, Nie Kong had to calm down and use the "Yin and Yang Spirit-Devouring Technique". Gradually, Nie Kong's mind was completely immersed in cultivation, and the spiritual power consumed was quickly recovered.
"boom!"
I don’t know how long it took, but the meridians and acupoints became full again. Suddenly, a shocking shouting woke Nie Kong up from his practice.
Fortunately, the old man is gone!
Nie Kong subconsciously opened his eyes and turned his head to look. In the battle circle, Bai Yuqing's slim figure jumped high, like a slap in his hand, slapped the back of the male disciple who was picked by her. With a bang, the blue ice crystal on the inner city disciple's body shattered, and his stiff body fell into the ground like a meteorite, slamming heavily outside the boundary line. There was no movement for a long time, and it was obviously unconscious.
"Clam!"
Bai Yuqing fell, and the broad sword suddenly fell on the ground, and a spark jumped at the tip of the sword.
Nie Kong looked carefully and found that Bai Yuqing's hands holding the hilt of the sword were trembling slightly, and her chest was also undulating rapidly. Her already full peaks became more and more prominent, and her fair cheeks were even more red. Under her shiny facial skin, there seemed to be a crystal luster, which made her body feel thrilling, which made some male disciples outside the battle circle feel thrilling.
"Bai Yuqing won!"
Hearing the professor's voice, Bai Yuqing's lips curled slightly, and her cheeks became even more red and bright.
Nie Kong was also very happy. The little girl finally got the top ten as she wished and got the opportunity to "Hellfire Hollow Spring". But immediately, Nie Kong became a little worried. In this competition, Bai Yuqing's spiritual power consumption seemed to be even better than the previous game. Although the fifth game has not been conducted, it is estimated that there will be an hour before the next round. Even with the complement of spiritual medicine, it will be difficult to restore her to her full state.
At this time, the fellow disciple who was photographed by Bai Yuqing in the battle circle had been carried away, but Bai Yuqing's eyes searched in the crowd. When he saw Nie Kong sitting cross-legged on the ground, Bai Yuqing suddenly walked towards him.
Bai Yuqing did not carry the broadsword on her shoulders as usual, but let it drag on the ground. With the sour sound of fickleness, strings of sparks burst out from the tip of the sword. Dragging the heavy broadsword, Bai Yuqing's steps were a little fluttering, making people worried whether she would collapse to the ground.
"Come with me!"
When he arrived in front of Nie Kong, Bai Yuqing opened his red lips slightly, suddenly said these three words, and then dragged his sword to the Emperor Sheng Palace. However, Nie Kong did not say anything, but nodded slightly, then bounced up and moved his footsteps. The two left the Emperor Sheng Palace one by one.
Miao Ge, Taji and others, and the inner city disciples around who were paying attention to Bai Yuqing were all looking at each other. At this time, Bai Yuqing didn't hurry to take the spiritual medicine to restore his spiritual power, so why did he ask Nie Kong to run out? Those who are fussy couldn't help but follow him quietly, and soon they came to pay back. Bai Yuqing brought Nie Kong into her attic. This made everyone even more puzzled. Could it be that he planned to ask Nie Kong to help her refine a super-high fusion spiritual medicine? However, with Bai Yuqing's spiritual power consumption, no matter how high the fusion of the spiritual medicine is, it seems that it is difficult to completely restore her spiritual power in a short period of time!
With many doubts, everyone continued to watch the competition.
Not long after, the fifth game of this round was completed, and the list of top ten inner city disciples was newly released, Lan Shang, Liu Heming, Gu Ruofei, Jing Lan, Nie Kong, Bai Yuqing... Except for Nie Kong and Bai Yuqing, the rest were among the top ten in the inner city competition last year.
Nie Kong and Bai Yuqing can be said to be the biggest anomaly in this year's inner city competition. One reached the ninth level of spiritual transformation at the age of twenty and the other reached the second level of spiritual transformation. Her cultivation level does not seem very high, but it is said that her age is only seventeen years old, which is not enough to describe it. The biggest tragedy in the competition is that Shanxiong, who was second last year, but he didn't even enter the top ten this year!
According to the rules, after this round of competition, there will be three quarters of rest time and the next round will enter. If you do not use up all your spiritual power, the three quarters of your cultivation time plus the spiritual medicines refined by Gu Changgong himself can almost recover your spiritual power.
If you are like Bai Yuqing, you can only recover at most 60% or 70%. If you are lucky and you draw a number to the back, you can still take advantage of the opportunity of others to restore all your spiritual power. If you are not lucky, don’t blame others. In such a competition, there is no absolute fairness, and Lingyu City arranges the competition between the two rounds so tightly, which allows some unfairness to exist.
After all, in real battles, the enemy cannot give them real fairness, and the final result is still the one who controls the outcome. If it is a disciple like Lan Shang, even if he only recovers 60% or 70% of his spiritual power, he may be able to defeat his opponent. Without it, his strength is only strong enough.
Everyone's enthusiasm was still rising, and while waiting, time passed quickly. Seeing that the hourglass used to calculate time outside the battle circle was about to shine, many people's eyes frequently looked at the door of the Shenghuang Palace. Almost as the sand in the hourglass completely leaked, Nie Kong and Bai Yuqing finally arrived late.
Looking at Bai Yuqing walking in front of him, the originally noisy Shenghuang Palace suddenly became quiet.
After leaving for so long, Bai Yuqing now seems to have become a different person. Although her eyes are still cold and cold, her delicate face is covered with red tide, like ripe apples and the magnificent sunset in the sky, looking beautiful. What is even more surprising is that the blush spreads to her ears and neck. Not only does the hair on her temples stick to her cheeks, but her clothes are also soaked in sweat and attached to her body, making her already hot body look more anxious and concave.
Although Nie Kong, who was following Bai Yuqing, was not as obvious as Bai Yuqing, his sweat appeared on his body.
Everyone exchanged their eyes in surprise, looking at Bai Yuqing's now red and radiant appearance, no matter how they looked, they seemed to have just finished some things that were not suitable for children with a man, rather than recovering their spiritual power. Could it be that they had gone out for so long and really went to the attic to Hu Tian and Hu? But seeing Bai Yuqing's energetic appearance, it seemed that he had completely recovered. Could it be that this little girl had a special physique and could quickly recover her spiritual power if she did that kind of thing?
For a moment, many people's eyes became strange when they looked at Nie Kong and Bai Yuqing...
