Fighter of the Destiny

The crowd outside the National Education College was noisy, like a big cauldron with water boiling inside. Around the arbor set up on the street outside Baihua Lane, many shopkeepers are busy, accepting bets from the public. As long as the battle has not started, you can place bets at any time, but I don’t know why, the odds of both sides have increased since yesterday. Nothing has changed today.

Not everyone likes gambling. There are more people in Kyoto who simply come to watch the excitement. After all, this is a grand event. After Chen Changsheng took over as the dean of the Institute of Chinese Education, he entered the Zhou Garden. This was his return to Kyoto. Today is very important for him, as is his first appearance since then. Today is also very important for the Chinese Academy of Education. If last year, Chen Changsheng became the first student of the National Education Academy in many years, it was more of a symbolic meaning, then today's battle is the first battle for the National Education Academy to truly reappear in the world.

If this is a story, then the next development must be that Chen Changsheng wins the victory naturally, and the National Education Academy, which has been dilapidated for many years, declares its rebirth to the entire continent. Unfortunately, everyone knows that today’s story will not develop like this, because His opponent is a strong man in the Star Gathering Realm, and the first battle for the new students in the National Education Academy will most likely end in a dismal outcome.

People looked at the closed door of the National Education Academy, and looked at the expressionless Zhou Ziheng standing in front of the door, and they felt a lot of emotion. Everyone knew that the new rules for martial arts in various academies were the result of the Tianhai family and the new sect of the National Religion big figures jointly suppressing the National Religion. The methods used by the academy and Chen Changsheng, coupled with the fact that the legendary wolf boy Zhishou is still imprisoned in Zhou Prison to this day, one can even see the unattainable figure of the Holy Queen behind this incident.

How could the Holy Queen Empress give the National Academy of Education any chance to truly grow? If there were no disagreements within the State Church, or if the imperial palace would have reacted more strongly to this suppression, the State College would not have been forced into such an embarrassing situation. It is a pity that even within the State Church there are many people who do not want to see the State Church. The academy is truly revived - the two Holy Archbishops who proposed new rules for martial arts performances in various academies have declared their positions to the entire continent. Even when the Pope changed his mind, they still stood beside the Holy Queen.

What is emotional is that these two archbishops of the Holy Church grew into the six giants of the current state religion through the deliberate training of the Pope, and became two towering trees. It is precisely because of the Pope that they can communicate with the Saint The Holy Empress has been in contact, and now the Pope has changed his position, but he cannot make everyone in the Li Palace change their stance. After all, the Li Palace and the Holy Empress have been intimate for more than two hundred years, how can they be separated in one day? ?

Archbishop Merissa died last night. The Pope lost his once most powerful opponent and most powerful comrade-in-arms. Moreover, the Pope must ensure superficial fairness. No matter how many thoughts he has about leaving the palace, he cannot do it in the face of thousands of people. Previously, my focus was in favor of the National Education Academy, so no matter how difficult the battle today was, and no matter how bleak the outcome, it still had to be fought by the National Education Academy itself. In the past year, Chen Changsheng and the National Education Academy, under the care of Li Gong, have not experienced much hardship and have grown up smoothly and healthily. So today, not only is it their turn to shield Li Gong from the wind and rain, at least they will start to work with Li Gong. It's been a storm since leaving the palace.

Of course, this is not fair. Most of the people on the street think so. Through the registration list of the Imperial Education Office, the four major squares have already confirmed to the entire Kyoto that there are only five registered students in the National Education Academy. His Highness Luo Luo has a special status and cannot represent the National Education Academy in the war. Zhexiu, who is considered by many to be the most powerful, is imprisoned in Zhou Prison. So when other academies launch challenges, the National Education Academy does not have much choice, or room to move. .

There are no long-established strong masters here, only young people.

The door of the National Education Academy was pushed open, and Chen Changsheng walked out, with Xuanyuan Po and Tang Sanliu following behind him.

There was a commotion in the street, then it quickly became quiet.

In the first battle of the National Education Academy, Chen Changsheng was of course the one to fight, because he was the dean.

He was wearing a brand-new hospital uniform today, with fine stitching and neat cuffs, making him look very neat. His black hair was tightly tied, his features were pretty, and he looked very clean.

Walking to the courtyard gate, he bowed to the inn in Baihua Lane, then looked at Zhou Ziheng and nodded.

Compared with his sixteen-year-old age, he does seem too calm and calm, but there is absolutely no turbidity about him, and he feels like a ray of breeze.

Just looking at his demeanor, he really does look like a dean.

There were sincere compliments from all around.

The people who came to see the excitement could not break through the imperial army and the priests. They could only watch from a distance, not clearly, but they felt more and more comfortable with the young dean.

Last spring, the entire Kyoto besieged the National Education Academy has long been a thing of the past. Archbishop Merissa is dead, and the bloodstains in front of the Cardinal's Office are no longer there. Who still remembers that? After the Great Imperial Examination, the Tomb of Heaven's Book, and the Zhou Garden, Chen Changsheng has now become the pride of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Kyoto is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the National Education Academy is in Kyoto, so the people of Kyoto naturally think that this is their pride. .

There were admirations, discussions, and regrets. People always felt that today's battle was unfair. The entire continent knows that Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong are the monastic geniuses who entered the realm of Tongyou the fastest in history. But that is the upper realm of Tongyou after all. His opponent, Zhou Ziheng, was a truly strong man in the first stage of gathering stars. It is extremely rare to win a cross-border battle, let alone today's battle. If Chen Changsheng wants to win, he needs to cross a huge gap. How high is the threshold?

Last night, I heard from the intellectuals of Qianji Pavilion that Dean Xiao Chen did not take a step back when facing Master Zhu Luo in Xunyang City. Zhou Ziheng is only in the Star Gathering Realm. Who says he will definitely win?

Yes, I have also heard that in Xunyang City, Dean Xiao Chen and that lunatic Xiao Zhang both had a fight. Although they were defeated, they did not suffer any big losses.

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and somewhat unexpectedly, the vast majority of them were optimistic about Chen Changsheng, or maybe that was not optimistic, but just a certain emotional tendency.

Please understand clearly. No matter how high Dean Chen was in Xunyang Lili, he was surrounded by Su Li and Wang Po at that time, and the situation was chaotic. Now it's one-on-one. Someone laughed and said: I won't argue with you. If you really believe it, you can win by going to the Imperial College.

The crowd was temporarily quiet. Sure enough, people just hoped that Chen Changsheng could win, and were not really optimistic about it. In fact, few people bet on the victory of the National Education Academy.

You pay 11 for one, there is really no way to bet on the National Education Academy.

If it were another practitioner of the Tongyou Upper Realm who challenged the Star Gathering Realm, do you think those guys who are better than thieves would offer odds? What's more, they even built a pavilion and set up such a large formation. . In my opinion, Si Da Fang should also think that Dean Xiao Chen will lose, but at least he can persist for a long time.

Even if Zhou Ziheng is only at the first level of gathering stars, will it still take a long time to defeat an opponent who is a whole lower level?

Don't forget how Wang Po chopped his opponent at the first level of Star Gathering into a madman when he was in the upper realm of Tongyou.

Although I also think Dean Xiao Chen is very powerful, I don't think he can catch up with Wang Po back then. Don't forget that Wang Po succeeded in gathering stars in that battle.

Don't forget that at the beginning of the year, Dean Xiao Chen also succeeded in the final battle of the imperial examination.

It's precisely because I haven't forgotten that I think this is impossible. How could it happen twice in a row in just half a year, unless it was a miracle.

…

…

The crowd watching the game talked a lot and argued fiercely. Only the amount of betting and the number of people represented the real opinions.

As analyzed by the public, no one, including the four gambling establishments and big figures in Kyoto, was optimistic about Chen Changsheng. Even though Chen Changsheng had already demonstrated his amazing talent and fighting ability in Zhouyuan and Xunyang City. That's because Chen Changsheng was not the protagonist in the battle in Xunyang City, and the battles that took place before Xunyang City had no audience.

The top floor of Chenghu Tower was cleared today, and only one person was eating, because he always felt that what was most needed to appreciate the lake was not the weather, but tranquility. Now that it is summer, the most famous crab feast in Chenghu Tower cannot be put on, but there are still dozens of dishes densely packed on the table. Each dish is probably more expensive than what ordinary people need for a year's living.

Such a luxurious and generous person is naturally not an ordinary person.

The plate in front of Tianhai Chengwu is blue lobster from Daxizhou. The shrimp meat is as white as jade, but more tender and cold than jade. The chef of Chenghu Tower uses excellent knife skills to cut it into chrysanthemum shapes.

He picked up the chopsticks, but shook his head after a moment without moving the chopsticks.

He had no appetite because the files in his hand and the descriptions of the bloody scenes in the files were really disgusting. These files are about the battle between Chen Changsheng and General Xue He, Liang Hongzhuang, and the Northland powerful Lin Pingyuan. The first two battles were narrated personally by Xue He and Liang Hongzhuang. In the last battle, because everyone was killed by Chen Changsheng, the scene was reconstructed from the scene afterwards.

Not sure what he had confirmed, Tianhai Chengwu felt much better. He picked up the chopsticks again, took the shrimp meat and put it into his lips, chewing it slowly, feeling that it was sweet in his mouth.

How can you win without Su Li now?

…

…

In the entire Kyoto, no one was optimistic about Chen Changsheng.

The bishop who was optimistic about Chen Changsheng was now sleeping peacefully in the plum blossom.

There was a feeling of sadness in the office, but many priests looked in the direction of the National Education College.

Luoluo was sitting by the plum blossoms, fulfilling her responsibilities on behalf of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Education. Suddenly, she heard the sound from far away, walked to the window, looked in the direction of the Institute of Traditional Education, and clenched her hands slightly into fists.

Sir will definitely win.

Even if everyone is not optimistic about Chen Changsheng, she still believes that Chen Changsheng can win the final victory. There is no reason.

At some point, Mo Yu came to the National Education Academy.

She did not go to the gate of the National Education College to watch the battle. There were already many big shots there, and Xue Xingchuan was in the teahouse. There was no need for her to go there.

For some reason, she appeared in Chen Changsheng's room.

She didn't sleep. She sat in front of the window and looked at the lush woods in the Anglican Academy. She didn't know what she was thinking.

Suddenly, there was a bang from the direction of the front yard.

Her pupils narrowed slightly and she looked towards the source of the sound.

The first battle at the National Education Academy began without warning.

…

…

Zhou Ziheng drew his sword.

Chen Changsheng drew his sword.

Each took out a sword.

The priest who was responsible for recording the scene could not take his eyes away.

Dozens of painters and storytellers watched nervously.

Thousands of people in Kyoto were silent.

Throughout Kyoto, more people were waiting to hear the latest updates on this battle and see the latest images.

The only one that can do this is Sidafang.

The painter, who has extremely profound knowledge and vision, began to paint the moment after Zhou Ziheng and Chen Changsheng drew their swords.

Especially the painter from Tianji Pavilion, who already possesses the cultivation of the Star Gathering Realm. With just a few hasty strokes, a picture appeared on the paper. Although it was scrawled, it had perfectly captured the two figures. The trajectory and spirit of the sword.

After a while, this painting was spread throughout Kyoto through the magic weapon.

…

…

This is a sketch, extremely sloppy and simple. If you didn't know what it was drawing, you would even think it was the work of a child who had just learned to write.

The room was quiet. The students from Tiandaoyuan gathered around the table. They had countless doubts in their hearts, but they didn't dare to ask questions or disturb the person at the table from watching the painting.

No Tiandao Academy student dared to get close to that person, because of awe, because of love, and because that person was senior brother Guan Bai.

If Zhuang Changyu, who committed suicide a few days ago, was the pride of Tiandao Academy in the past two years, then Guan Bai was the pride of Tiandao Academy in the past ten years. Just like the other people on the Xiaoyao List, Guan Bai also has his own title: the famous name Guan Bai.

Over the years, it was he who kept the reputation of Tiandao Academy from falling.

Guan Bai's eyebrows were like swords, slightly weathered, and it was obvious that he had just returned from a distant place.

After his eyes fell on the simple scrawled paper, they became sharper, as if they were real swords.

His fingers gently traced along the lines on the paper in the air, making a hissing sound, and it seemed as if sword intent shot through the air from the edges of his fingers.

I don't know how much time passed, but he retracted his fingers, looked away, looked out the window in the direction of the Chinese Academy of Education, and said with a complicated expression: What a sword.

Finally, one student couldn't help but ask: Brother, who won?

As soon as this statement came out, he immediately attracted countless looks from his classmates, and their eyes were full of accusations. The battle between Chen Changsheng and Zhou Ziheng has just begun. This picture only shows the first sword of both sides. How can we judge who wins and who loses based on this? This question is in vain to disturb Senior Brother Guan Bai from watching the sword. How stupid.

However, what these Tiandao Academy students did not expect was that Guan Bai actually made a judgment.

He looked at the lines on the paper, at the ink and the traces in the dry pen, and suddenly a sword light lit up in his eyes.

Then he said: Chen Changsheng wins.
