People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 71 Guests
The end of the Fire Energy Hunting Competition does not mean that the freshmen can practice peacefully in the inner courtyard from now on.

They also have to go through another baptism, which is the old students who keep coming to collect tribute fees.

It was obvious that except for Chen Xiao, the fifty freshmen only had two days of fire energy left, but the old students who came to ask for tribute fees kept coming in waves.

So much so that in recent days, every time Chen Xiao returned to the freshman dormitory, he would see conflicts between freshmen and senior students.

It is called a conflict, but in fact it is more like a one-sided lesson.

After all, among the new group, except for a limited number of great fighters who can resist a little, the rest are hardly a match for him, and the gap is obvious at a glance.

What’s more interesting is that although there are old students coming to cause trouble every day, none of them targets Chen Xiao. Occasionally, when they meet on the road, this group of old students who don’t know him at all will nod towards Chen Xiao in a friendly manner.

The reason is related to three small things.

First, the news from the Black and White Team and the fifty freshmen.

Second, at the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, Elder Liu personally confirmed that Chen Xiao was already a five-star Dou Ling.

Finally, there was a rumor from the Medicine Gang that Chen Xiao and Zi Yan had a close relationship.

These three things combined made Chen Xiao famous in the inner courtyard even though he hadn't done anything yet, making all the freshmen envious.

Chen Xiao didn't care about this. For him, it would undoubtedly be more convenient if the old man didn't bother him. In this way, he could use all his time to improve himself.

Every day, he would go to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower to condense his fighting spirit for two hours, then go to Elder Su Qian's study to read for an hour, and then go to the deep mountains in the back to sit in meditation and practice while waiting for the thunderstorm to come.

A life that goes back and forth between home and school is peaceful and fulfilling.

In this atmosphere, half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

...

The vast mountains and lush green colors extend to the end of the sight, like an endless green ocean. When people stand in it, the wind blows, the forest sways slightly, and waves of green sweep in from far and near, which is so spectacular that it is breathtaking.

On a mountain top, Chen Xiao and Zi Yan, who had nothing to do all day, stood steadily. Apart from the rustling of leaves in the wind, the only sound was the girl's "crunching" chewing.

"Do you want it?"

Seeing Chen Xiao looking down, Zi Yan generously spread out her hands, revealing three irregular-shaped pills.

Chen Xiao shook his head helplessly and pushed the little dragon's claws back.

"What I want to ask is, how often do thunderstorms occur on average in these deep mountains?"

He clearly remembered that when Huo Huo was practicing Three Thousand Thunders, it only took him one or two days to wait for the right weather for a thunderstorm. Why was it that when it came to him, there was no rain for a full half month?
Could it be that Xiao Yan was really that lucky?
"I haven't noticed it, but the weather in the mountains is unpredictable. Sometimes it rains for days in a row, and sometimes it doesn't rain for a long time. I remember the time I accidentally ate the transformation grass. It rained for several days in a row, and I was so hungry that I went out to grab some food and ate the transformation grass."

Zi Yan shook her head and replied, still full of resentment when she mentioned that unfortunate experience.

As if sensing her emotions, dark clouds suddenly appeared from nowhere in the sunny sky, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. Strong winds suddenly arose, rustling the trees in the mountains and forests.

"You're right, the weather is really unpredictable!"

After a brief moment of surprise, Chen Xiao finally smiled.

laugh!
A flash of lightning shot out from the dark clouds, and the dazzling light dyed the mountains with a layer of silver.

"I want to practice fighting skills. If you are free, please help me watch from a distance and don't let these monsters come to disturb me."

"Okay, then hurry up. I've been going to the medicinal material management warehouse more frequently these days, and Old Man Hao is keeping a closer eye on things."

Zi Yan gave instructions and threw the empty jade bottle in her hand towards a demon beast below. It hit the beast's head accurately and she chased after it with a grin.

Without worrying about Zi Yan, Chen Xiao sat down cross-legged on the ground as he looked at the increasingly dark world, and took out the scroll of Three Thousand Thunders from his storage ring.

As the sound of wind and thunder grew louder, bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky, causing the temperature between heaven and earth to drop by several degrees in an instant.

However, the silver scroll in Chen Xiao's hand seemed to activate automatically, emitting a faint warmth. Looking closely, he could see tiny flashes of silver electricity emanating from it, stimulating a tingling sensation in his palms. He looked up at the arcs of electricity flickering in the dark clouds above. He took a deep breath, and without hesitation, he tore the scroll apart, placing it on his legs.

In an instant, a dazzling silver light burst out from the scroll, turning into a silver electric energy column as thick as a basin, rising into the sky and directly piercing into the thick black layer in the sky.

The dazzling beam of light was extremely eye-catching in the dim sky and earth. Zi Yan, who had already run several miles away, could see it clearly. She decisively gave up the chasing monster and moved closer to watch with a look of surprise.

Fortunately, this beam of energy did not last too long. It only lasted for a few breaths before it quickly retreated from the dark clouds with a "hiss" and finally completely retracted into the scroll.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao felt a little relieved.

His gaze fell back on the scroll in front of him. He could see that the silver scroll was now wrapped in a layer of faint silver light. On the surface of the light, strange images appeared from time to time, as if demonstrating the correct method of practicing Three Thousand Thunders.

Chen Xiao didn't dare to be distracted. He concentrated his mind and poured out all his soul power, which was no less than that of an ordinary alchemist. He memorized every movement of the image in his mind.

It was also at this time that the silver light on the scroll became stronger and stronger. In the end, the scroll was slowly suspended under the support of this light, and finally stopped when it reached Chen Xiao's chest.

The images that appeared and disappeared became clearer and brighter, and more lifelike, until a certain moment, these little figures running in various forms seemed to have come into life. In the slight ripples of space, they broke through the constraints of the light and rushed straight towards the distant sky!

"Ice Mirror!"

Chen Xiao had been prepared for a long time. An ice mirror suddenly appeared above his head, blocking all the fleeing energy figures.

Unable to escape successfully, these energy figures stopped in mid-air in a chaotic manner.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao's mind moved, and he controlled the power of his soul to wrap up all the energy figures and pull them all into his mind.

snort~
A low sound of wind and thunder came from Chen Xiao's body, followed by extremely mysterious human figures that kept flashing in his mind, causing Chen Xiao's body to tremble slightly.

Looking inward at this moment, Chen Xiao could clearly see countless tiny arcs of electricity flashing in the meridians throughout his body. Every flash made him feel as if he was being pricked by needles all over his body. If Chen Xiao had not experienced countless medicinal baths in the Earth Core Tempering Milk, which gave him a certain tolerance to pain, he would probably find it difficult to calm his mind at this moment.

"You're already in my territory and you still want to run away..."

Knowing that these tiny electric arcs were the embodiment of the power of wind and thunder, and that its origin was hidden within them, Chen Xiao chuckled in his heart, and quickly formed a cultivation seal with his hands. The fighting spirit in his body began to circulate, washing the tiny electric arcs between the meridians over and over again, causing them to circulate along the route of the technique.

After circulating for who knows how many cycles, the tiny arcs of electricity throughout the meridians finally disappeared, revealing a silver lightning bolt that was almost the same shape as a small snake.

This is the origin of the power of wind and thunder!

Without hesitation, Chen Xiao's Dou Qi circulation speed suddenly increased, like a torrent pouring down. Before the little snake could react, he had already swept it up and circulated it in his meridians over and over again until he felt that it became like the ice-attributed Dou Qi in his body, and it became as easy as his fingers. Only then did he slowly stop.

When I opened my eyes, the thunderstorm was still going on outside and the sky seemed to be a little darker.

Chen Xiao stretched out his palm and rubbed his fingers gently. Suddenly, a very faint silver electric light emerged from between his fingers with a slight hissing sound.

"Is it done already?"

A petite figure appeared beside him out of nowhere, staring at Chen Xiao's fingertips curiously.

"It's not that easy. I just successfully refined this bit of wind and thunder power and have the qualifications to formally practice."

Although he said this, Chen Xiao couldn't hide the joy on his face.

After all, the most difficult step in practicing Three Thousand Thunders has been taken!
Next, you only need to practice diligently and you will be able to gradually master it. The conditions for practice are no longer harsh, and you can practice and gain experience in the Black Horn Region.

"So complicated."

This rant...

Chen Xiao couldn't refute.

"By the way, Old Man Su just sent me a message saying that two guests suddenly came to visit and asked us to go back early today."
