Nie Xinghe decided to no longer hide and walked out with Leng Muxue. The Agkistrodon acutus's corpse was already gone, and a large pool of blood was left on the ground.

Nie Xinghe asked again. The man's hands paused for about half a second, then said without raising his head: "I already said, there are no Wan Dao Academy s here."

His tone was filled with impatience.

Leng Muxue tilted her head, and pointed to the signboard on top of the broken rocks, "Isn't Wan Dao Academy written on there?"

Leng Muxue hid behind Nie Xinghe, and after a while, the person's Qi calmed down again.

Nie Xinghe remained unmoved and said: "I want to participate in the tournament in half a year's time. I need your help."

The stone in his hand was easily shattered by him as he looked at Nie Xinghe. He could not see any emotion from those empty eyes, but he suddenly laughed, and a hint of sorrow could be seen from his laughter.

"I don't have anything I can help you with. You can leave now."

Nie Xinghe did not move his feet and continued: "Wan Dao Academy has been the champion of the tournament for several years. He took second place last year and became like this.

"That's how the world works. The champion is the king, and the rest are trash."

The man picked up the bamboo tube hanging around his waist, and started drinking a bit, he drank two mouthfuls, and continued to clean the broken rocks, ignoring Nie Xinghe.

"I will help you win the championship."

Nie Xinghe had seen too many events regarding the fall of a King.

Nie Xinghe did not know about the former glory of the Wan Dao Academy.

But he, Nie Xinghe, was different. He did not regard this person as a hero and the person in front of him was very strong and not heartless. Last night, even though he clearly knew that the two of them had spent the night here, he had still pretended not to know.

"With just you? What big words are you spouting? "

Nie Xinghe's expression was resolute, he changed and said: Even if I win the championship, so what?

"Uncle!" I have a request. Please duel me, if I lose, I will immediately leave, no longer disturbing you, but if I wake up, you will take me in as your disciple! "

Senior Master Xuan was a bit unhappy as he said, "Hey, hey, one master is not enough, and there are two more? Where do you think my face will go? "Also, please don't be too impulsive, you are not on the same level as him at all."

"You know about the tournament?"

Nie Xinghe asked in his heart.

At that time, there really was no such thing.

The man then looked at Nie Xinghe up and down, maybe to chase the two away quickly, but after patting the dust off his hands, he actually agreed.

"Lu Qiluo, boy, state your name."

"Nie Xinghe. "Please advise me."

Hearing Nie Xinghe's name, Lu Qiluo's expression changed slightly, but quickly recovered back to normal. Leng Muxue was unable to stop Nie Xinghe, and could only watch from the side, he knew Nie Xinghe was not Lu Qiluo's opponent.

In terms of strength, I am naturally inferior to him. However, I have already gone through hundreds of battles, so I definitely won't lose to him in terms of combat experience. As long as he doesn't release his vein beast, I have a chance.

Lu Qiluo only opened the fifth meridian point door, and laughed arrogantly: "Don't say that I'm bullying you, within an hour, if you can make me move half a step, it would be considered your victory."

Nie Xinghe opened the meridian door, concentrating the Qi at his feet, causing the sand at his feet to tremble slightly, Nie Xinghe rushed forward and disappeared from Lu Qiluo's sight, in the blink of an eye, he was behind Lu Qiluo, with his eyes closed and face filled with disdain, Nie Xinghe first touched the ground with his feet, using his body's reaction force to jump up, and then used his full strength to kick Lu Qiluo's back muscles, instantly releasing some Qi, which formed a formless impact and sent Nie Xinghe flying.

Nie Xinghe endured the pain in his chest and stood up again.

Nie Xinghe clenched his teeth and attacked a few more times, but the result was the same. Every single time, he would be sent flying by his meridians, and the difference in strength was too wide, so Lu Qiluo couldn't even get close to him, much less move.

Lu Qiluo's expression, from the beginning, was filled with disdain, but now, it became serious and stern.

Nie Xinghe wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Just now, it was not a blind attack, but a split-second later, Nie Xinghe saw that the pulse that had blown him away, had only covered half of his body.

Nie Xinghe took out all of his Qi and prepared to give it a try.

Lu Qiluo also felt the change in Nie Xinghe, but he still remained expressionless.

Nie Xinghe no longer attacked from the side or his back, but chose to attack from the front instead. Nie Xinghe stomped hard with his right leg, and that transparent vein appeared at the lower half of his body, suddenly Nie Xinghe turned into a ray of gold light, caught off guard, and was pierced by the gold light until his eyes were shut.

"Mirror."

In that one second of opening, Nie Xinghe concentrated all of his remaining Qi onto his right leg, and used all of his strength to send a kick towards Lu Qiluo.

That golden vein seemed to have exploded, and gradually spread outwards. Nie Xinghe did not dare believe that his kick could completely destroy the black stone, but Lu Qiluo was not injured at all.

Nie Xinghe jumped back as he gasped for breath.

Lu Qiluo patted the dust off his shoulder, raised his head to look at the sky, two hours should be enough, and from Nie Xinghe's body, it was as if he could no longer feel any energy, even the energy beneath his feet, which was used to increase his speed, had disappeared, and this farce, had ended early.

"It's not even two hours, it's not over yet!"

Nie Xinghe was a little exhausted, the perspiration on his face continuously dripping to the ground.

"Why do you want to participate in the tournament so much? For money? For reputation? "

Lu Qiluo didn't know why he was asking this question, but perhaps it was because this stubbornness of Nie Xinghe's that caused him to think of a certain student from the past.

"To protect the people I love."

Nie Xinghe replied weakly.

Lu Qiluo's thoughts seemed to have returned to a year ago, when that youth had also answered his question in this way.

Although he did not know what had happened, Lu Qiluo was truly distracted. Clenching his teeth, he jumped and spun twice in the air, landing a kick on Lu Qiluo's chest. When Lu Qiluo regained his senses, he actually took a step back.

Leng Muxue immediately ran up to support Nie Xinghe. Nie Xinghe was drenched in sweat, he lowered his head to look at the footprints in front of him, and then looked at Nie Xinghe with a peculiar gaze.

"I win, you have to keep your promise!"

Nie Xinghe opened half of his eyes, his chest moving up and down violently, his lips extremely dry and pale white.

Lu Qiluo smiled, he raised his head and looked at the cloudless sky and said: "Alright, I will accept you as my disciple."

"I... I want it too! "

Leng Muxue had a tough attitude when she wanted to enter school, so Nie Xinghe could not resist her.

The admission ceremony was very simple. Lu Qiluo rummaged through the boxes and boxes, and finally found two red ropes. On the red strings hung copper coins the size of a coin, and on one side of the copper coins wrote "Wan".

On the other side was written, "Dao."

Lu Qiluo said as he gave the accessories to Nie Xinghe and Leng Muxue.
