Chapter 43： Undercurrent

Chapter 43 Dark Tide

In the woods outside the back door of Cang Qiong Academy, Zhang Yu practiced for an afternoon. After destroying almost all the trees in the woods, he finally stopped practicing.

As the sun went down, Zhang Yu stretched his waist, then dragged his long shadow and walked back to the academy lazily.

On the way, Zhang Yu turned on his insight technique and checked his current information.

【Zhang Yu】

【Sex: Male】

【Age: Twenty-three years old】

[Physical talent: ordinary bloodline, three-star inferior, etc.]

【Intellectual talent: Samsung inferior】

【Special Talent: Alchemy (two stars)】

[Cultivation: Kaiju Ninefold]

[Skills: Insight, Two-Star Alchemy]

In just over a month, Zhang Yu has undergone earth-shaking changes in all aspects.

His life is also on the road away from the ordinary, going further and further.

After checking his information, Zhang Yu paid attention to the tasks that had not yet been completed.

【Main quest 6: Train a two-star alchemist】

【Main Quest Seven: Recruit Deng Qiuchan as a student of Cang Qiu College】

[Side quest: Fame (requires 300,000 reputation, current reputation 375)]

Looking at the three unfinished quests, Zhang Yu pondered: "[Main quest 6] cannot be completed in a short period of time, but [main quest 7] and [side quest] may be completed within the next few days."

Although Deng Qiuchan had a bad impression of Zhang Yu and Cang Qiong Academy, and even looked down on him, it did not mean that Zhang Yu did not have the opportunity to complete the task.

The Wild Abyss Trial is about to begin. Once Deng Qiuchan sees the performance of the Cang Qiong Academy students in the Wild Abyss Trial, she will immediately overturn her impression of Zhang Yu and Cang Qiong Academy. , This girl is still not caught?

As for the [Side Mission], Zhang Yu has no detailed plan for the time being, so he can only follow the fate.

It is good that the task is completed. If it is not completed, there is no punishment. Therefore, Zhang Yu is not in a hurry at all, and his mentality is very relaxed.

…

Chenguang College.

Zhou Xun, who has not shown up for a long time, rarely appeared in the conference hall of Chenguang College today.

I saw Lin Haiya resisting his inner excitement, and said to Zhou Xun with a blushing face: "Master Zhou, everything is ready, I will trouble you then!"

These days, he has been busy before and after, and has arranged all the links, just waiting for Zhang Yu to enter the set.

Come on, just endure the last two days and they will be able to take revenge!

Compared with Lin Haiya, Luo Yueshan is undoubtedly more excited. This day, he has waited for too long, and now, it is finally coming!

Looking at the expectant and nervous faces of Lin Haiya and Luo Yueshan, Zhou Xun smiled lightly: "Don't worry, as long as you don't make any mistakes, Zhang Yu will surely die."

"Then let's wish Sir Zhou success in advance." Lin Haiya nodded and bowed respectfully.

Zhou Xun glanced at Lin Haiya, and said lightly: "I will kill Zhang Yu, but don't forget, I came to the barren city, and I have other tasks. Don't mess up other things for one Zhang Yu."

"You mean... rating the stars of Chenguang College and Yunshan College?" Lin Haiya was excited, and there was a touch of excitement on his face that could not be concealed.

Luo Yueshan was a little calmer. He shook his head and said, "Lao Lin, what Lord Zhou said is not about star reviews."

Lin Haiya's words originally made Zhou Xun frown, but after hearing Luo Yueshan's words, he loosened his brows and said lightly: "In addition to star review, this deacon has a more important task, that is ... recruit a group of good seedlings for the academy in Fucheng." Originally, this task was undertaken by an ordinary member under his command, but this time he personally came to Huangcheng, and he did it.

Hearing this, Lin Haiya broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly bowed his head to apologize: "I'm sorry, Lord Zhou, I forgot about such an important matter. It's all my fault. I'm getting old and my head is useless..."

"I think it's not that your brain is useless, but that you don't take this deacon's business to heart at all." Zhou Xun's words were a little dissatisfied, if it wasn't for the fact that Lin Haiya and Deacon Du Ruoyun had a little friendship, He may have already tried to teach Lin Haiya a lesson now, and then walked away, "I won't care about you this time because of the deacon's face, but I don't hope there will be another time." He cast a ball at Lin Haiya. Go away with a warning look.

…

Deng's family.

Deng Qiuchan, who had just delivered a batch of goods in the afternoon, walked back to his small courtyard with a tired face, took off his heavy armor and boots, washed a little, then climbed onto the bed and lay down quietly.

The strange thing is that she, who usually can fall asleep with her eyes closed, is tossing and turning today, unable to fall asleep.

After a long time, she opened her eyes, her beautiful eyes staring blankly at the beam of the house, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Trial in the Wild Abyss..." Deng Qiuchan was silent for a long time, a rare touch of tenderness from the little daughter's family flashed in her beautiful eyes, and after a while, she sighed faintly, "Wu Mo, you are really willing to live in a small town in the deserted city. In a small college?"

Having been in Fucheng for many years, she has naturally heard of such a behemoth as the "Hundred Academy Alliance", and she is also more aware that the academies in the barren city are nothing compared to those in the "Hundred Academy Alliance".

Not to mention the six-star academy with the highest star rating in the "Hundred Academy Alliance", even the humble one-star academy among them is by no means comparable to any academy in the barren city.

"Even if you can't get into a four-star academy, you shouldn't be living in an underclass academy that can't even reach the star-level standard, right?" Deng Qiuchan felt very sorry and worthless for Wu Mo, and she hated iron for not being steel. meaning.

After all, with Wumo's talent, it's not that there is no hope of joining a one-star academy or even a higher-star academy!

In Deng Qiuchan's view, if Wu Mo really wants to surpass his father Wu Chen and become the legendary vortex realm powerhouse, the only way to go is to join the Star Academy!

After a long time, a long sigh resounded in the room again.

"Zhang Yu, Cang Qiong Academy, this time, let me, Deng Qiuchan, uncover your mystery, so that Wu Mo will no longer be bewitched by you!"

…

Mao's family.

In an exquisite private pavilion, a handsome young man dressed in exquisite clothes sat cross-legged, and the surrounding spiritual energy was like ripples, slowly rippling, and gathered towards the young man in circles.

"The sixth-level peak is just the last step!" The young man opened his eyes and took a deep breath, then carefully took out a wooden box from his arms, opened the wooden box, and the young man picked up a vermilion red pill in the center of the box. medicine, and then swallow it.

The next moment, the young man closed his eyes again and ran the exercises frantically.

After a few breaths, the youth trembled slightly, and a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face, and the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly accelerated, rushing towards the youth.

After the cultivation base was completely stabilized, the young man slowly opened his eyes, and on his handsome face, there was a touch of domineering and self-confidence that looked down on the world: "The seventh level of rebirth, it's done!"

After staying in the sixth stage of revelation for several years, the young man finally successfully broke through to the seventh stage of revelation before the trial of the deserted abyss started this year!

"The three Kaixuan Pills sent by Grandpa are so timely!" The young man stood up, and the smile on his face became brighter. "They saved me at least a year!" He knew very well, He still needs to practice for at least another year before he can touch the barrier between the sixth level of Kaixuan and the seventh level of Kaixuan, but after taking three Kaixuan Pills, he just managed to break through to Kaixuan in just one week. Sevenfold.

"That's great!" There was a touch of excitement in the young man's eyes, he clenched his fists hard, and murmured: "This time, I want everyone in the barren city to understand that I, Mao Zangtian, are the first genius in the barren city! That guy Mo is not qualified to compare with me at all! Also, Deng Qiuchan, I want you to know that in the entire barren city, only I am worthy of you!"

There is no doubt that this person is one of the three geniuses in the barren city, along with Wu Mo and Deng Qiuchan, the genius of the Mao family, Mao Zangtian!

However, very few people know that both Wumo and Mao Zangtian like Deng Qiuchan at the same time, while Deng Qiuchan, who is closer to Wumo, mostly ignores Mao Zangtian's various gestures.

This made Mao Zangtian very jealous and at the same time extremely unwilling!

Now, Mao Zangtian's cultivation has broken through to the seventh level of enlightenment, and he has regained his former self-confidence...

He wants to prove himself in the barren abyss trial, to prove that he is the first genius in the barren city, and to prove that he should be Deng Qiuchan's best choice. Poor, but Deng Qiuchan's vision is not good.

"Master Zangtian." During the meditation, the voice of a maid interrupted Mao Zangtian's thoughts, "Patriarch, please come to the conference hall."

Mao Zangtian nodded and smiled at the maid: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

The maid was so fascinated by this smile that she couldn't move her eyes, and shyly shook her head: "It's not hard."

"By the way, where's Zang Feng?" Mao Zangtian enjoyed the maid's obsessive eyes, and with a charming smile on his face, he asked casually, "I don't seem to have seen him much recently, do you know where he went? "

Hearing the words, the maid said in a low voice, "Master Zangfeng went to Xinglin to practice as soon as he came back recently."

Although Mao Zangfeng is also the young master of the Mao family, most people don't take him to heart. Apart from giving him a certain amount of respect on the surface, no one will take the initiative to care about his situation, unless he happens to meet him at Xinglin. After passing Mao Zangfeng once, the maid probably couldn't answer Mao Zangtian's question.

It can be seen from this point that the same is the young master of the Mao family, but the treatment and status of Mao Zangtian and Mao Zangfeng are diametrically opposite.

If Mao Zangtian is a star in the sky, held in the palm of everyone's hands, then Mao Zangfeng is the silt in the water, and others will feel dirty when touched.

Mao Zangtian thought thoughtfully: "My cousin is as hardworking as ever!"

He didn't really care about Mao Zangfeng, he just wanted to get some words out of Mao Zangfeng's mouth to understand Wu Mo's situation. As for Mao Zangfeng himself, he never paid attention to it from the beginning to the end. Although he always called out very affectionately, in his heart, he never cared about this cousin.
