Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 219
[Chapter 219 Lin Xiu VS Ling Yin]
Li Baizhang took a close look at the woman in the courtyard and exclaimed in surprise: “Isn’t she Qianye Lin!”
Lin Xiu said in surprise: “Do you know each other?”
Li Baizhang shook his head and said: “I know her, but she doesn’t know me. The last competition among all countries was in Daxia. She shined in the competition. Many young geniuses who became famous in the five dynasties were defeated by her. She was ranked ninth on the Tianjiao List last time. I’m afraid she can make it into the top five this time. She is also one of the three recognized beauties in the last competition. How come she is in your family?” Lin Xiu
asked curiously: “What three beauties?”
Li Baizhang explained: “There are three women in the top ten of the Tianjiao List last time. They are all first-class beauties. The first one is your wife, and the second one is from the Daluo Dynasty. By the way, that person has the same ability as you. She is known as the “Ice Queen” and is a good friend of your wife. The third one is Miss Qianye from Fuso…”
Lin Xiu will never know how much gossip Li Baizhang knows.
However, he is not so interested in the three beauties and four beauties selected by the gossipers. Their admirers and pursuers have no idea what these goddesses are like in private.
The four beauties of the Yishu Academy are all fairy-like in front of outsiders. Who knows that Ning’er is a little nympho who likes to be snobbish in private, Lingyin is cold on the surface, but she is actually enthusiastic and arrogant, Princess Minghe always puts on airs, but likes to climb trees and eavesdrop on others, Qin Wan is restless when sleeping, and her craftsmanship is extraordinary, which is not to be told to outsiders…
At this time, Li Baizhang continued: “You haven’t told me yet, how did Miss Qianye get to your house?”
Lin Xiu said: “I was wandering around last night and picked her up.”
Li Baizhang was stunned for a moment, and said unsurely: “Picked it up?”
Lin Xiu nodded and explained it to him a little.
Li Baizhang looked into the empty space and fell into deep thought. He didn’t think he was much worse than Lin Xiu. The only difference might be luck. When
Lin Xiu went out at night, he either ran into Qin Wan or the Tianjiao of Fusang, and he could only run into the patrolling guards.
Is this a peach blossom fate?
To be honest, he wanted to commit it.
Lin Xiu asked Li Baizhang, “Let’s not talk about this. How is your cultivation going?”
Li Baizhang stretched out his hand, and the arc of light flashed in his palm. He said with some pride, “I have broken through the earth level.”
Although he didn’t have as much luck in love as him, he had entered the earth level before Lin Xiu in terms of cultivation.
Lin Xiu was very pleased, patted his shoulder lightly, and said, “Not bad, I haven’t been disappointed.”
Li Baizhang slapped his hand away. Lin Xiu spoke in a tone like his elder, which made him feel strange. When
Lin Xiu first met Li Baizhang, he hid his identity and strength at the same time. In fact, at that time, he was already in the upper realm of the Xuan level. As long as the royal children awakened the strange arts, their talents were generally not too bad. The princes and princesses were all born to the daughters of Emperor Xia and the powerful families. They were born with the best genes.
With outstanding talents, with the accumulation of resources, most of them can enter the earth level at the age of about 20.
These people can be called geniuses. As long as they work hard to practice, it is not difficult for them to advance to the upper realm of the earth level.
Those who are more talented than them, like Zhao Lingjun and Qianye Lin, can be called geniuses.
It has been half a year since Lin Xiu entered the upper realm of the Xuan level. The practice in the past half year is equivalent to ten years for ordinary people. According to the initial prediction, he needs a year to break through, but later he accidentally obtained the speed skill, the gold skill, and the space skill. If everything goes well, he will be able to break through by the end of the year, which will probably take three to four months.
His basic talent is still much worse than these geniuses. If his basic talent is as high as Zhao Lingjun, and he has to multiply a certain number by the speed of practice that is more than ten times, he may really be able to step into the supreme level within ten years.
Thinking of Zhao Lingjun, Lin Xiu saw Zhao Lingjun.
She came here with Lingyin. It seems that Lingyin told her the news that Qianye Lin was injured.
Li Baizhang glanced at Lin Xiu and asked in a low voice: “How are you and Miss Wan’er?”
Lin Xiu asked: “What do you mean?”
Li Baizhang asked: “How far have you developed?”
It is really hard to describe how far he has developed with Qin Wan.
Let’s say they are friends, but how can there be a friend who kisses for a quarter of an hour, how can there be a friend who sneaks over the window every night, hugs each other, and sleeps in each other’s arms? How can there be a friend who will help him?
He can’t insult the word friend.
Lin Xiu smiled at Li Baizhang, believing that he could understand the meaning of this smile.
Li Baizhang’s expression was dull, and after a long time he asked: “Didn’t you say before that she just lived here?”
Lin Xiu sighed lightly and said: “Some things can’t be predicted, you know…”
Li Baizhang exhaled sadly and said: “I knew it…”
In the past, he felt that he and Lin Xiu were in the same boat, and even his situation was better than his.
Now he finally understood how ridiculous his thoughts were at that time.
Lin Xiu didn’t care about Li Baizhang’s mood, his mind was all on Zhao Lingjun.
This was the first time Zhao Lingjun came here.
The legal wife actually came to the outer house. If it were another man, he would probably be panicked, and the woman kept outside would also be terrified.
But Lin Xiu didn’t see the word “fear” on Qin Wan’s face.
When he looked over, she even winked at him. This glance contained countless charms.
Li Baizhang also saw this scene. He gulped down a big mouthful of tea, stood up and said, “I’m leaving. Don’t forget to go to the Department of Extraordinary Arts to register!” Li Baizhang mentioned this matter
. Just as everyone was there, Lingyin suggested that they go together. The
upcoming small competition is hosted by the Department of Extraordinary Arts.
All those who participate in the small competition must go to the Department of Extraordinary Arts to register one month before the competition begins.
The purpose of registration is to find out the strength of all contestants. After all, there are more than ten countries participating in the small competition, and hundreds of contestants cannot be ranked one by one. Therefore, the competition adopts an elimination system. In the first two rounds, as long as you fail once, you will be eliminated directly.
If there is no preliminary investigation, but a completely random draw, it is possible that Zhao Lingjun will meet Qianye Lin in the first round, and the strong competitors in the top five of the big competition will be eliminated in the first round of the small competition qualifying.
After knowing their strength, the Department of Strange Arts will make arrangements to at least ensure that in the first few rounds, the Earth Rank will not meet the Earth Rank.
As for the Mysterious Rank, they can’t care so much. Even if they are at the peak of the Mysterious Rank, they can’t get a good ranking in the competition. The court will not change the rules for them. Organizing a competition for hundreds of people is originally a very tedious and troublesome thing. Considering too much will make the competition process more tedious, time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly.
Therefore, Qianye Lin, Lingyin, Qin Wan, and Ning’er are absolutely safe, but Lin Xiu is not necessarily.
Theoretically, he may be eliminated in the first round.
If he unfortunately meets Zhao Lingjun in the first round, he will be eliminated.
On the way to the Department of Strange Arts, Lingyin glanced at Lin Xiu and said, “I hope you don’t meet us in the first competition…”
Lin Xiu also glanced at Lingyin and said, “If I meet you in the first competition, I won’t hold back either.”
Lingyin rolled her eyes at him and said, “You talk as if you are my opponent.”
“How about a competition?”
“I’ll compete when I get back. Am I afraid of you?”
…
Qianye Lin looked at Lin Xiu with curiosity. She just found out that Lin Xiu’s strength was only at the Xuan level.
She originally thought that Zhao Lingjun’s husband, even if not as good as her, should have the strength of the Earth level. What made
her feel even more strange was that they didn’t look like a couple.
On the contrary, her sister looked more compatible with him.
After completing the registration at the Department of Extraordinary Arts and returning to the new house, Zhao Lingyin stood in the yard and said to Lin Xiu, “Didn’t you say we were going to compete?”
Lin Xiu said, “Come on…”
Li Baizhang said that there was a woman from the Daluo Dynasty in the top ten of the Tianjiao List, and her extraordinary ability was also ice. She might meet her during the big competition. Lin Xiu just wanted to try it out and see what it felt like to face an opponent with the same ability and a Yuanli that was one level higher than his.
Qin Wan and Qianye Lin also stood on the corridor and looked at the two. Lin Xiu and Lingyin
were three feet apart, which was also the standard distance that the two contestants had to maintain at the beginning of the small and big competitions. If
the distance was too close, the extraordinary arts masters who had no defense ability would be killed instantly by warriors with a lower realm than them.
Three feet is a more appropriate distance.
Qin Wan said “start”, and Lin Xiu’s figure disappeared on the spot.
During the competition, the abilities he could use were only ice, strength, gold, eyes, and speed within a reasonable range.
Because strength, speed, and defense can also be achieved by circulating true qi, it will not arouse suspicion.
Lin Xiu could not defeat Ling Yin with his magic alone. From the beginning, he had to look for an opportunity to get close to her.
Two feet, one foot.
When Lin Xiu entered the ten-foot range around her, he could no longer get close to her.
Lin Xiu stood there, with a layer of frost on his eyebrows and hair. His body became very stiff, and his hands and feet could not move. He actually felt cold. He had not felt such cold for a long time…
This kind of cold penetrated into his bones from the outside to the inside.
This was obviously the suppression of the realm.
This ten-foot range was her domain.
But the next moment, when the fire power in Lin Xiu’s body was running, this coldness was mostly dissipated, and the frozen body resumed its activities.
But at this time, the ice spear condensed in Ling Yin’s hand was already pointing at him.
According to the rules of the competition, Lin Xiu had already lost.
She looked at Lin Xiu and asked, “Are you convinced?”
Lin Xiu had already reached a conclusion in his heart.
Seriously, Ling Yin was not his opponent.
Although her realm was higher than his, Lin Xiu still had the ability of fire. Even if he could not restrain her, he could weaken the effect of his ability. She could not stop him from getting close.
If it happens again, she will be the loser.
It seems that even if Lin Xiu meets the genius of Daluo, she will not be too passive.
Looking at Lingyin’s proud expression, Lin Xiu hugged her arms, her body trembling slightly, and said to give her face: “I give up…”
Zhao Lingyin raised her chin slightly, and her chest straightened a little. At this moment, in front of Lin Xiu, she finally found the feeling before.
Just when she was proud in her heart, Qin Wan quickly walked to the shivering Lin Xiu, rubbed her hands to warm them, held Lin Xiu’s hand, and then said: “You go back to the room first, go to bed and cover yourself with the quilt, I’ll make a bowl of ginger soup to warm you up…”
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Zhao Lingyin stood there in a daze.
She just won.
But it seems that she didn’t win.
