One person, one city, guarding the border for 30 years

Chapter 171 Don't Talk Too Much

"He does not need it!"

Ah Li answered for Lu Qingfan, "His strength is already strong enough, even if he enters Imperial Capital Academy, it won't improve him much."

"impossible!"

Xiaoyue shook her head resolutely, "Unless he has extraordinary strength, how could he not improve much?"

Ah Li smiled and said no more.

"Oh, what a pity."

Xiaoyue sighed regretfully, "If he is really as powerful as you said, and if he is willing to come to our academy, then wouldn't our academy have another student with SSS level talent?"

"Are there any higher-level talents?"

Ali asked suddenly.

"Gone."

Xiaoyue said: "The highest rating in our empire is the SSS-level talent, and it has appeared twice in history, and that is you and the devil!"

"Ah."

A Li nodded, "If he is willing to participate in the trials and only uses SSS-level talent, I'm afraid we can't really evaluate his talent."

"What are you kidding?"

Xiaoyue was stunned: "How can there be such a person in this world? The talent is even stronger than the demon god?"

"I didn't believe it at first either."

Ah Li sighed softly, remembering the first time he met Lu Qingfan. At that time, Lu Qingfan was still a 14-year-old boy, but his strength was stronger than her now!
"Until I met him, I didn't know that there really are such heaven-defying people in this world!"

"No, are you serious?"

The more Xiaoyue listened, the more confused she became. She thought A Li was joking, but now it doesn't sound like it?

"Of course!"

A Li glanced at Xiaoyue, "I'm not a person who knows how to joke."

"Alright alright."

Xiaoyue didn't want to argue with her about this, so she turned her head and asked Qingxue, "Do you believe it? Such a person exists in this world? And this person is right in front of your eyes."

"Do not believe."

Qingxue shook her head naturally.

In her heart, the demon god is the most talented person in the world, how can others compare to him?
Even if this Su Li has the same rating as the Demon God, it won't work.

Moreover, it is still far from the Demon God!

As for that person named Qing Fan, it's even worse!Still always put on a pretentious look, pretending that you are very powerful?

There are even people touting it for you.

deceive who?
Arrogant and arrogant guy!

Thinking of this, Qingxue suddenly lost control of her emotions, "If such a person really exists, I would rather be a bull for him!"

"It doesn't have to be that way."

Xiaoyue was amused by Qingxue, she smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "Sometimes, talking too much doesn't end well."

"Ok?"

Qingxue was stunned, "Don't you also believe it?"

"I don't believe it, but what if?"

When Xiaoyue said this, she laughed again, "Okay, it's okay, I was teasing you, I just hope you will learn a lesson in the future, don't talk too much."

"Ah."

Qingxue nodded, she seemed to be able to listen to what Xiaoyue said.

"Right, there's one more thing."

Xiaoyue turned her head to look at A Li, "After the qualifiers are over, we will enter the final stage."

"The playing field is here."

As Xiaoyue spoke, she pointed to the martial arts arena not far away, "At that time, there will be two-two battles, one round of promotion, and finally a winner will be determined, and I will fight with you."

"Ah."

Ah Li nodded, she also had a general understanding of the competition rules in the final stage.

"I just want to ask you, do you want to come and watch the previous rounds of competition?"

Xiaoyue said: "If you want to come and see, I can arrange seats for you in advance. After all, there are only so many good seats, and they all need to be reserved in advance."

"Well, I want to see it."

Ah Li smiled and agreed.

"Then which seat do you want to sit?"

Xiaoyue pointed to the seats behind her, "I can reserve them for you in advance."

"I want this."

A Li pointed to Lu Qingfan, then pointed to himself, "Here is this, which is the seat we are sitting in now, and we will sit here during the game."

"Ok?"

Xiaoyue was stunned, "You mean these two seats?"

"Yeah, can't you?"

Ah Li stared into Xiaoyue's eyes.

"It's not impossible, but I can't make the decision."

Xiaoyue quickly came back to her senses, and said with a smile, "I'll ask the dean later."

Ah Li nodded, "Well, then I'll wait for your news."

"it is good."

Xiaoyue agreed.

Listening to the two talking about the seats, Qingxue was stunned.

She didn't expect Su Li to come for real, and she would also sit in these two seats when there was a game?

The face is so big!

There are so many gentlemen and deans in the college, how could it be your turn?
No, what if the dean really agrees?
Thinking of this, Qingxue tugged at Xiaoyue's clothes, "Senior Sister, I also want a seat."

"Ok?"

Xiaoyue turned her head and glanced at Qingxue, a little dissatisfied, thinking why are you joining in the fun?
However, her emotions were not shown on her face, and her tone of voice was as calm as possible, "Don't you have a competition?"

"When there is no game, I want to watch it."

Qingxue asked in a daze: "Senior sister, can't I do this?"

"If it's someone else, definitely not, but you, no problem."

Xiaoyue smiled, "Tell me, which seat do you want?"

"I'll just sit here."

Qingxue pointed to the seat under her.

"Okay, let me ask the dean for you."

Xiaoyue nodded, "Wait for your reply."

"Thank you, sister."

……

……

a few days later.

Imperial College.

The qualifiers have all ended, and all 128 promotion places have been born.

These 128 people will be the new students of the Imperial Capital Academy, and they will participate in the next final stage of the competition.

Except for A Li, the remaining 127 people will fight in pairs, the winner will advance to the next stage, and the loser will be eliminated until there is only one person left, and then they will have a decisive battle with A Li.

In other words, the final winner will have to compete in a total of seven rounds before he can have the chance to compete against A Li.

However, due to the lack of one person, there will be one bye in the first round.

This spot was given to Qingxue, and she could directly advance to the second round.

As a student with S-level talent, Qingxue received such treatment, and other students naturally had no objection.

Today is September 6rd.

The first day of the Imperial College selection finals competition.

Before the first game starts.

The stands in the Martial Arts Field are already crowded with people.

There are [-] seats, almost all seats are full!

The spectators in the stands were all excited, talking about the game that is about to start today.

Everyone's voice is not too loud, but when these voices gather together, it seems that the entire martial arts arena is extremely noisy.

However, it was precisely because of these voices that the atmosphere at the scene was extremely hot.

"Look, the students are starting to enter."

With a loud shout, people looked towards the entrance of the martial arts arena, and saw hundreds of students walking into the martial arts arena.

They are all old students from previous sessions, and there are more than 400 people.

Both are strong!
Such a group of people walking together immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone watched them walk towards the middle stand, and watched them sit down.

These students sat in the second to sixth rows.

There are about 120 seats in a row, and they are not full.

Afterwards, another group of students walked into the martial arts arena.

They are new students of this class, and those who didn't compete today have also come to watch the match.

In the middle stand, the seventh row of seats is reserved for them.

In addition to the six rows of seats in the front row, these seven rows of seats are the best seats in the entire martial arts arena, which were specially separated by the Imperial Capital Academy for the VIPs and the academy's own people.

These seven rows of seats are separated separately, and there is a wide aisle all around. There are railings outside the aisle, and other stands outside the railings.

Except straight ahead.

Directly facing the competition platform, the distance is close and the line of sight is good.

After a while.

Someone in the stands exclaimed again.

"Look, gentlemen and teachers are here."

Everyone looked at the entrance of the Martial Arts Field again, and saw more than 100 people walking into the Martial Arts Field.

They walked up to the middle stand and sat down in the first row of seats.

However, there were a few seats left in the middle.

"That must be reserved for the dean."

"There should be VIPs, right?"

Everyone looked at the empty seats and talked a lot.

At this moment, a few more people walked into the martial arts arena.

The one walking in front was a middle-aged man.

Sharp-eyed people recognized him at a glance.

"The dean is here!"

"Who are the others?"

Everyone looked at the four people behind the dean, a little curious.

"I know, the older one is Ashura, and he is also the teacher of the academy."

"The youngest girl is Qingxue, a student with S-level talent."

"The one with the best looks is Su Li, and she is a student with SSS talent."

Many people have seen the previous primary elections, so they naturally recognize A Li and Qingxue.

But there are also many people who have never seen the two of them, only heard of their names, and when they saw them at this time, they all exclaimed.

"Is she Su Li?"

"SSS-level gifted student?"

"It looks so beautiful!"

Everyone's eyes were on A Li, neither Qingxue nor Zhuang Yu could attract everyone's attention.

As for Lu Qingfan, no one cared.

I don't know who yelled first, "Su Li!"

Immediately someone shouted after him.

Gradually, tens of thousands of people shouted together.

"Su Li!"

"Su Li!"

"Su Li!"

The name resounded throughout the audience, and the huge sound wave seemed to overturn the entire martial arts arena.

Even, the sound came out of the Imperial Capital Academy, echoing over the entire Imperial Capital.

Seeing such a scene, even Zhuang Yu had to smile wryly, "Su Li, you are too popular, aren't you?"

"Yes."

Ashius next to him echoed, "During this period of time, people throughout the empire have been celebrating Su Li like crazy."

"Haha."

Zhuang Yu laughed heartily.

"Dean, please."

Several people walked up to the stands, walked along the front aisle, and sat down in their seats.

"what?"

"what happened?"

"who's that person?"

Everyone quickly saw that something was wrong.

The person sitting in the middle was not the dean, nor Su Li, nor Yaxiu and Qingxue, but a young man.

Many people have questioned.

"Who is he?"

"Could it be someone from the royal family?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Even members of the royal family shouldn't sit in the main seat."

At this time, Lu Qingfan was sitting in what people called the main seat, with A Li on his left and Dean Zhuang Yu on his right.

On Zhuang Yu's right is Yaxiu, and on the right is Qingxue.

On A Li's left is a young woman, she looks to be only in her 20s, she is beautiful, but her expression is a little cold and arrogant.

"By the way, let me introduce you."

Zhuang Yu pointed at the young woman with a smile, "This is Xiangyu, a new student of our Imperial College. She was also a student of our Imperial College before, and she is the most outstanding genius of our college in recent years!"

While talking, Zhuang Yu pointed to Ah Li again, "This is Su Li, a student with SSS talent, I won't say much else, you two get to know each other."

"Hello."

Ali nodded politely.

"Ah."

Xiangyu turned her head, looked at A Li a few times, and nodded to her.

The two had nothing to say.

At this time, Zhuang Yu turned his gaze to Lu Qingfan, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

"Su Li, your friend, you haven't introduced me yet."

"Oh, his name is Qing Fan, he is my good friend."

After Ah Li introduced Lu Qingfan, he introduced Zhuang Yu, "This is our dean, Zhuang Yu."

"Hello."

Zhuang Yu took the initiative to greet Lu Qingfan.

"Hello."

Lu Qingfan nodded in response.

Zhuang Yu frowned suddenly, "I seem to have heard the name Qingfan somewhere before."

As he spoke, he began to think, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of it.

"is it?"

Yaxiu also frowned and thought for a while, but he had no memory of the name at all.

"Dean, even if you have heard of this name, it may not be the same person."

"That's true."

Zhuang Yu shook his head, no longer entangled in the issue of the name.

He has more important things to ask.

A few days ago, Xiaoyue told him about something, which aroused his interest and even gave him some ideas.

"Su Li, I heard that your friend's strength is about the same as yours?"

"It's not about the same, but much better than me!"

Ali corrected.

"Ok?"

Zhuang Yu was stunned, and so was Yaxiu.

Even Xiangyu next to Ah Li was stunned for a moment.

"impossible?"

Zhuang Yu naturally didn't believe it, and neither did the others.

As the dean and gentleman of the Imperial Capital Academy, they all knew that the strength Su Li showed during the test was very likely to be the peak of the Ninth Rank.

Even just one step away, you can become extraordinary!

People who are much stronger than Su Li can only be superpowers.

That young man turned out to be extraordinary?

How can it be?

There are only nine Transcendents in the entire empire, and I have never heard of such a young Transcendent.

Even in the history of the empire, there has never been such a young supernatural.

Even the demon god who is recognized as the most talented, became extraordinary when he was in his 30s.

Judging by the appearance of this young man, he is about 20 years old, right?

How could he be an extraordinary powerhouse?
A Li shook his head and said nothing more.

She's just telling the truth, as for others to believe it or not, it's up to them.

"Qingfan, how about you coming to the academy together?"

Although Zhuang Yu didn't believe that Lu Qingfan was stronger than A Li, he also believed that he would never be much worse.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for these two people to get together, let alone become friends.

"As long as you want to come, you can skip all the tests and become a student of my Imperial Capital Academy directly. Moreover, the treatment you deserve is not less, or even more."

Zhuang Yu was talking, and looked at Lu Qingfan, "How is it? Are you interested?"

"No."

Lu Qingfan refused without thinking.

"Ok?"

"what?"

Before Zhuang Yu could speak, Yaxiu and Xiangyu were stunned. They thought that this man had such a big face that he even refused the dean's personal invitation?

This is Imperial College!

A holy place for geniuses to practice!

A place where countless people can't get in even if they want to!

What is he capable of?
How could he not even give the dean face?
"What if I give you the same cultivation resources as Su Li?"

Zhuang Yu seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and continued: "As a student with SSS-level talent, Su Li will definitely get the best training resources in our college. Whether it is the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, the Golden Wild Goose Pagoda, or even the Holy Spring Mountain, as long as Su Li wants to enter , you can enter at any time, and so can you!"

"There is also the Library Pavilion of the college. You can come in and out as you like without any restrictions."

"You will be given double doses of pills every month, and you can enter the spirit pulse once every ten days,"

"There are other cultivation resources, so I won't go into details one by one. In short, what Su Li has, you also have. I will train you as a student with SSS level talent."

When Zhuang Yu said this, he glanced at Lu Qingfan again, "You are still young and have great potential. Now is the best age for cultivation. Imperial Capital Academy is also a huge opportunity for you. If you miss it, you may be in the future. regret."

"How is it? Are you coming or not?"

Zhuang Yu extended the invitation again.

"what?"

Yaxiu and Xiangyu were stunned again.

Especially Xiangyu, she was once the most valued genius of the college, but she didn't have this kind of treatment at that time.

And it's far from it!

This made her feel a little unbalanced.

That Su Li has been tested, and his talent rating is SSS level, so it is reasonable to have such treatment.

But this person, why?
Xiangyu couldn't help turning her head, and looked at Lu Qingfan again.

"Dean, thank you for your kindness, I appreciate it."

Lu Qingfan was a little surprised by Zhuang Yu's sincerity, but he definitely couldn't agree.

It's not that he doesn't like these cultivation resources, but how can he become a student of the Demon Race, as the extraordinary of Da Zhou?
This is something he cannot accept.

"Don't persuade me any more, I won't agree."

"Ugh!"

Zhuang Yu sighed in disappointment.

Yaxiu and Xiangyu were even more stunned.

The two never expected that even if the dean showed such sincerity and offered such generous treatment, they would not be able to impress this person.

What was he thinking?

Can't even look down on Imperial Capital Academy?
How can this be?

Who is he?
At this time, Qingxue was also thinking about this question. She was always proud, and there were not many people who could look up to her.

Except for the demon god, she felt that she was no worse than anyone else.

However, some time ago, her talent was actually compared to others.

Although she was a little disappointed, that also became her motivation. She swore in her heart that she would definitely defeat that woman named Su Li in the future.

So recently, she is full of motivation.

But Lu Qingfan's attitude today completely overturned her cognition.

No matter how proud and conceited she is, she still wants to participate in the trials, and wants to become a member of the Imperial Academy.
However, this person named Qing Fan not only did not participate in the selection competition, but even rejected the invitation sent by the dean himself.

Moreover, the dean's attitude is so sincere, and the conditions offered are so generous.

This person still refused without hesitation.

How proud and conceited is this?

Qingxue thinks about herself again, compared with others, the gap is simply too big.

It was too big for her to accept.

It turns out that there are not only people with better talents than her in this world, but also people who are more proud and conceited than her!

No wonder the two ignored her.

Qingxue thought blankly, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.

"Dean, I have a request."

Xiangyu suddenly had an idea, but he couldn't get it out of his mind.

"what?"

Zhuang Yu was regretting at this time, when he heard Xiangyu's voice, he turned to look at her.

"I want to compete with Su Li."

Xiangyu was suddenly very unconvinced. She didn't believe that Su Li could reach the peak strength of the ninth rank at his current age.

Even if it was, she wouldn't accept it!

Why give Su Li such good cultivation resources?

Why let Su Li sit in such a good position?

Why are so many people supporting Su Li?Even the dean is cautious?
Even Su Li's friends can get the same treatment, why?
She doesn't agree!
"you?"

Zhuang Yu was taken aback, stared at Xiangyu for a while, and reminded, "You have to think about it."

"Well, I figured it out."

Xiangyu nodded resolutely.

She understood what the dean meant. Now that she was a student of the academy, she had already lost in a competition with a student who had just entered the academy. No matter whether she won or lost, she had already lost.

However, she just wanted to compare.

Whether she loses or wins, she doesn't care.

She just wants to have a good fight!
It seemed that only in that way could the unhappiness in her heart be completely released.

"it is good."

Zhuang Yu actually wished that someone would take the initiative to stand up and compete with Su Li.

Otherwise, he was always worried.

Zhuang Yu knew that whether it was a new student or an old student, the strongest among them was far from Su Li's opponent.

The gap is too big!

Such a game is not exciting, it will even be boring.

Those who come to watch the battle will be disappointed.

In particular, there are several important VIPs who have already greeted them in advance and want to come to watch the battle.

As a result, the game ended in three or five strokes, so what's the point?
At least fight back and forth.

Therefore, the best way is to prepare another opponent for Su Li.

And this opponent can only be the master of the academy.

The strength can be closer.

Xiangyu is actually the best candidate.

She is not very old, and her strength is not weak, and she has just become a teacher not long ago, and she was a student of the academy before.

Even if you lose, it won't be too ugly.

After all, Su Li's strength and talent lie there.

However, Zhuang Yu had no way to ask Xiangyu to do this. What he didn't expect was that he was worrying about this matter, and Xiangyu took the initiative to bring it up.

"Then it will be the final day, the match between you and Su Li will be the final battle!"

After Zhuang Yu finished speaking, he glanced at Ah Li, "Su Li, do you have any objections?"

"It's all right, as long as the dean arranges it."

A Li nodded indifferently, since the other party gave her a chance to stand up, then she would do as the other party wished.

"Okay, then we'll wait to see the wonderful match between the two, haha."

Zhuang Yu finally put an end to one of his concerns, he was in a good mood at this moment, and couldn't help laughing a few times.
