Chapter 148 Back to the Academy

Xiao Chen stood up and looked at the terrifying crack in his chest, which was really thrilling.

Claire's last Blood Moon Slash almost cut him in half. If he hadn't laid out five layers of defense in succession... first absorbed damage with annihilation, then used a sword to remove power, blocked with a wind shield, used the wind flow all over his body to remove power, and finally there was a stone skin potion!

Under layers of defense, he was almost killed. He had experienced the horror of the two-star sword master!

This battle was the most difficult battle since his reincarnation and the battle he gained the most!

His strength has completely exploded, and he has improved his strength even more. In the future, he can definitely let go of the battle against the masters of swordsmen!

At this moment, I felt a dark aura seep out.

He saw Denox standing in front of Claire's body, muttering an obscure and gloomy spell, and a black smoke penetrated into Claire's body. Soon, some red phantom fragments were pulled out by him.

"Denox, what are you doing?" Xiao Chen walked forward.

Denox said: "Master, this is the corpse of the sword master. It also explodes in potential at the last moment, and even breaks through two stars. This is definitely the best material for refining immortal puppets. Moreover, this person just died, and I happened to collect the broken thoughts and souls in his body, and then you can refine an immortal puppet comparable to that of the sword master's strongest ones!"

Xiao Chen remembers that when he first met Denox, he summoned that black puppet monster with infinite power!

"Your immortal puppets are all dark and look like monsters. They are so conspicuous that they will become the target of public criticism at that time." Xiao Chen didn't think it would be a good thing to summon that kind of monster.

"Haha, those are unfinished items. Those puppets are too weak. I don't want to waste too much energy on them, I just refine them casually! This is different. The corpse of a strong swordsman can create puppets comparable to those of a swordsman. I will use various secret techniques to refine them, almost without changing their appearance, and even restore the memory strength of my life. However, it is absolutely controlled by me. Unless I am also proficient in dark magic, it will be difficult for others to recognize him as a puppet." Denox said excitedly.

"That's it...you can do it yourself!" Xiao Chen hesitated for a while, and then followed Denox.

He was not interested in this kind of puppet technique, but since Denox was so confident, it would be no harm to add a powerful puppet from the swordsman.

Denox didn't know what spell he used, and after a thick smoke covered Claire's body, Claire's body disappeared.

Then, he returned to the courtyard and picked up the sole of Claire's chopping. For the dark mage, there is no problem with sewing the corpse. The powerful dark mage can even sew humans and monsters together and turn into terrifying suture monsters, with extremely perverted strength!

Xiao Chen found a secluded place to heal his wounds.

Night passes quietly and morning comes.

In the windy town, some adventurers leaned over toward the broken courtyard.

The courtyard where the Tornian family lived was at the extreme edge of the town, and there was also the swordsman Claire. Usually, no adventurer dared to approach. However, such a shocking battle occurred last night, and almost everyone saw the shining fighting spirit like the scorching sun in the middle of the night, and the speed that was almost beyond lightning.

These people, with strong curiosity, will naturally come to the nearby area to take a look.

Soon, they discovered the broken battlefield...

A black figure slowly walked into the town.

Xiao Chen, wearing a cloak, even stayed around the fighting courtyard for a while, saw many onlookers and even heard a lot of discussion.

"The people of the Tornia family are dead."

"What's going on? I heard some time ago that the young master of their family died in the valley. Now, their people are dead here again. Is it because someone is specifically trying to deal with the Tornian family?"

"Who knows, but it seems that you can't see the body of the swordsman. I guess the swordsman may not die!"

"Next, the town of Qianfeng is going to be in chaos, and their people die here again. The Tornia family will never give up!"

"Absolutely, we'll leave this place of right and wrong."

Xiao Chen stood in the crowd, listened to a lot of discussion, smiled faintly, and turned around and left here.

He soon arrived at the airship port. There were a lot of people in the airship port today. It was probably this killing that made many adventurers unwilling to stay here anymore. The last time the death of Illinois caused the Tornian family to disturb the Crazy Valley. This time, so many Tornian people died here again, and the Stormless Town may be in peace.

Xiao Chen spent several times more money to buy a ticket and got into the airship...

Tianxing Academy.

As the year is getting closer and closer, the college is full of busy scenes, and all colleges and departments are busy with various assessments, competitions, and summary!

However, in all these assessments and competitions, the most popular one is naturally the inner courtyard assessment, which is the biggest event of the outer courtyard. It is said that its solemnity will even attract major figures from the empire to watch.

Many old antiques that are rare in the inner courtyard will also appear in the assessment.

The inner courtyard no longer represents the simplestness of the students. To be serious, the inner courtyard is more like a higher level of cultivation.

It is no longer academy-style education, but more of a school-like inheritance. Many old antiques in the inner courtyard will have students who choose their own. Only when they are favored by these old antiques can they become students in the inner courtyard, which means that the relationship between master and apprentice is greater than the relationship between teacher and student.

In the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, a carriage was passing by.

There were two people sitting in the carriage.

One of the women with a skin color as white porcelain, black hair is like a mirror, and thunder flashes in their purple eyes. The other one has long purple hair, a handsome face, and elegant temperament, sitting beside them.

Feeling the power of the magic power on the purple-eyed woman, the young man smiled and said, "Sister, this time you came out of seclusion, it seems that your strength has been broken again. Have you already broken through to the level of a mage?"

"Master..." The purple-eyed woman shook her head lightly: "No, but it's too soon."

"That's great. As long as my sister advances to the mage, then our kingdom can have a mage in charge. At that time, the nearby Kingdom of Heron and the Kingdom of Niam will not dare to be arrogant in front of our kingdom anymore." The boy said.

The purple-eyed woman frowned slightly and did not answer.

"I have exceeded six stars in this inner courtyard assessment. At most one year, I will definitely enter the inner courtyard." The young man said excitedly.

The carriage drove all the way through the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, and soon arrived at a small building in the Ice Blue Lake.

After knocking on the door, the door of the small building opened, revealing a beautiful face coiled in black hair. When she saw Zihuang and the boy behind her, she was obviously stunned, and then said with a little respect: "Master Zihuang, why are you here?"

Zihuang looked at the girl in front of her, but was confused again. She had always had a bad memory of people.

The boy's eyes lit up when he saw Galaxue. He went up and said in a soft and magnetic voice: "Hello, beautiful lady, let's go find Xuewei and Xuerui sisters. I don't know if she lives here."

Galaxue glanced at the handsome boy, letting open the door and said, "Xuewei and Xuerui are inside, Teacher Zihuang, come in first!"

"Okay, thank you." Zihuang said with a smile.

As soon as she walked in, Zihuang looked around curiously. It was her first time here. After Xuewei and Xuerui entered the intermediate magic department, she entered the inner courtyard to hone and hit the realm of the supreme mage.

Therefore, in the past six months, I have not guided Xue Wei and Xuerui again. This is the first time I have come here after leaving the customs.

Gala reached the second floor and soon after, he heard footsteps coming from above. After a while, two almost identical figures ran down from the second floor.

"Teacher!" Xue Wei and Xuerui shouted in great joy when they saw Zihuang standing downstairs.

They studied at Tianxing Academy and have been following Zihuang for two years. It can be said that except for Xiao Chen, Zihuang is the person they respect the most.

Then, they saw the handsome boy again, and Xue Rui's face looked a little ugly. Xue Wei smiled faintly and greeted: "Your Highness Ziyu!"

"Xuewei, Xuerui, I'm so happy to see you." Zi Yu said gentlely.

"Pretending." Xue Rui cursed in her heart.

Zihuang turned around when she heard the sound, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

This is still the twins in my memory. The twins at this time were much taller than when they first entered the Intermediate Magic Ministry half a year ago, and seemed to have grown a little older. But this is normal. What surprised her was the temperament of the twins.

That kind of calmness and calmness reveals a sense of momentum, which is definitely not comparable to half a year ago.

"You..." If the twins had not changed their appearance, Zi Huang would almost not recognize him.

"Teacher, sit down and talk." The twins came over and took her hand.

"Xuewei and Xuerui, you have changed a lot." After Zihuang sat down, she looked at the twins beside her at close range, and felt even stronger.

"Yes, I've become much more beautiful." Zi Yu praised.

Zi Huang frowned slightly. This was not what she wanted to say. She said to the twins: "Have you gone out to practice in the past six months?"

"Yes, we followed the young master to the night forest." Xuewei said.

"Night Forest?" Zi Huang's eyes flashed. It was a fierce place as famous as the Black Blood Swamp.

"Your young master, that Xiao Chen... I don't know where he is now?" Zi Yu suddenly inserted.

"Young Master, you haven't come back yet." Xuewei said.

"I haven't come back? Haha, I've been practicing very hard outside. Now the year is approaching, and the inner court assessment is about to begin. Xiao Chen, wasn't he the first place in the assessment? I wonder if he is ready this time and get the first place." Zi Yu's lips curled, and there was a smile that seemed to be nothing.

Everyone could understand the sarcasm in his words. Last time he won the first place in the midterm assessment, he was just a student of the junior Ministry of Magic. This time, the internal courtyard assessment of the intermediate Ministry of Magic. After ten years, I don’t know how many talented people have accumulated, and they all sharpened their knives and were ready to enter the inner courtyard.

How is it possible for a student who has just entered the Intermediate Ministry of Magic for half a year to win the first place?

Xuewei and Xuerui's face became gloomy.

At this moment, a sudden sound rang out: "I think there is no problem with Xiao Chen taking the first place."

Everyone looked over and sat next to him. Galaxue, who had not spoken, said this with a calm expression.

"Hehe, hehe..." Zi Yu laughed a few times, as if he felt like he heard a joke.

But he soon discovered that no one agreed with him. The twin sisters looked at each other and said, "Sister Gala is right. We also think that Young Master Xiao Chen will be the first in the inner court assessment this time."

Zi Yu's mouth twitched, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"That bastard, a grass chicken that pissed his pants, can get the first place, go to hell." He roared in his heart, but he couldn't reveal it. If he said that, wouldn't that mean that what he said just now was ridiculing Xiao Chen? Of course he wouldn't do this, that was inconsistent with his usual elegant and calm phenomenon.

"Haha, then I really want to congratulate him." Zi Yu said with a sarcastic smile.

"Xuewei, Xuerui, what is your current strength?" Zihuang kept silent, but now she suddenly asked.

"Hehe, teacher, we are already seven stars now." Xue Rui smiled.

"What!" Zi Yu blurted out in shock.

Even Zihuang's face changed drastically. She could only sense the strange magic fluctuations on the two women, which were extremely strange and completely different from the previous feeling, so she asked, but she definitely didn't expect that the two women's strength was actually seven stars.
To be continued...
