Chapter 188: Shui Bing'er's attachment, Huo Wu's gratitude
Zheng Hu and Qian Renxue have no conflict of interest for the time being, and he does not hate her, so he politely declined: "No need to bother, it's already very good here. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
"Brother Zheng Hu, you don't want to call me prince prince. How many years am I older than you? If you don't mind, just call me Brother Xue. How about I call you by your name?"
Zheng Hu said nonchalantly: "Okay, Brother Xue, I will call you this from now on. Please come and sit inside."
Zheng Hu quickly greeted Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi to lead them to the barracks.
Ning Fengzhi smiled and shook his head and said, "We won't sit down anymore. We just came to see you. By the way, I have something to ask you."
Zheng Hu guessed why Ning Fengzhi came to find him, and the two couldn't help but walked aside.
Ning Fengzhi took out a storage soul guide from his waist, handed it to Zheng Hu, and said, "This is this time. We have collected the materials and asked our son-in-law to make them into hidden weapons for us as soon as possible."
Recently, Ning Fengzhi always felt that the entire continent seemed to be uneasy, and there was a conspiracy brewing. Therefore, he wanted to improve the strength of his sect as much as possible.
Zheng Hu nodded quickly and said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, my son-in-law will definitely forge a new hidden weapon and hand it over to you as soon as possible."
The forging can be completed in minutes, and he can even synthesize the hidden weapon in one go in front of Ning Fengzhi.
However, this seems too appalling, so it is better to keep a low profile and give it to him in a few days.
After the two talked for a while, they returned to Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue said at the side: "Teacher, it's getting late, we should go."
Ning Fengzhi nodded and said goodbye to Zheng Hu again.
"Zheng Hu, goodbye, I'm waiting to see you in the promotion competition." Qian Renxue also said hello to Zheng Hu, and then the two of them walked out of the yard accompanied by everyone.
Back in the camp, Yu Hairou pulled Zheng Hu over and asked, "Sect Master, who was the person next to Sect Master Ning just now? Is he the prince of the Tiandou Empire?"
Zheng Hu didn't expect that this girl also knew the imperial family very well, so he couldn't help but smile and said casually: "He is the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire. I have met him once before."
Yu Hairou did not expect that Zheng Hu's social circle was so wide, and even the prince came to visit him. Suddenly, Zheng Hu's glorious image became taller and taller in her mind.
She knew that with Zheng Hu's strength and connections, he would definitely shine in the future and his future would be limitless. Girls like him were vying for a rich husband like him.
She is no exception.
At this time, her beautiful eyes were looking at Zheng Hu frequently, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.
A total of fifteen teams participating in the promotion round will compete in fourteen rounds of round-robin matches. One team will have a bye every day, and seven games will be played, all at the same venue.
The big school field has been remodeled, and an area with a diameter of meters is drawn in the center as the competition field. Compared with the arena of the qualifiers, the space here is wider, and it is naturally easier to display one's strength.
On the north side of the university grounds, facing south, a temporary VIP seat was built, which is also the referee's seat. This time there were not as many VIPs coming to watch the game as last time. There were many fewer nobles. Looking around, the VIP seats except the first row In addition to Emperor Xueye, Ning Fengzhi, Platinum Bishop Saras and a few others, the seats in the back were occupied by people dressed as military generals and some senior officials from Wuhun Temple in Tiandou City.
Team battles are chaotic after all, and many things are not easy to see clearly, but the promotion competition is different, every student will show their personal strength in full view, this is also the best way to judge the strength of a soul master opportunity.
Outside the campus, a total of 10,000 Royal Knights surrounded the entire campus. Their helmets were bright and their armor was bright. The Royal Knights soldiers in the front row were standing on the ground, while those in the back row were sitting on the backs of their mounts. A huge circle was formed.
Such a tight defense can be said to be watertight.
Of course, Emperor Xue Ye's purpose was to let his most elite warriors see the strength of the new generation of young soul masters to inspire their fighting spirit.
Between the large circle formed by the knights and the competition venue, fifteen participating teams have arrived. Even the teams that have a bye today are no exception. Even if they don't have to compete, they still have to clearly see the strength of their opponents.
The rules of the game are very simple. Each side sends seven players to participate. Each team member has to fight until he is defeated. If he wins, he will face the next opponent until all seven players on one side are defeated.
The draw was completed last night, and Tianshui Academy did not get a bye in the first round. Their opponent was a high-level soul master academy from the Kingdom of Barak, and they were scheduled to play in the third of today's seven games.
The teams that passed the qualifiers from different divisions were grouped together. Zheng Hu naturally saw familiar opponents such as Blazing Academy and Shrek Academy. When they looked at Tianshui Academy, several people's eyes especially fell on Zheng Hu. On the body.
Among them were Huowu girls, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Shenfeng Academy team captain Feng Xiaotian.
Feng Xiaotian looked at Zheng Hu with an unfriendly look, because he had already noticed that his beloved girl, Huo Wu, seemed to always go to Tianshui Academy recently, and he also found out that every time Huo Wu I always go to Tianshui College at night, and I go to Zheng Hu specifically.
What good things can a man and a woman alone do at night?
When he thought of this, Feng Xiaotian's heart ached.
He felt like he was being cuckolded.
In fact, Huo Wu and him had nothing to do with each other at all. It was just his own wishful thinking that Huo Wu was his woman.
It is said that rivals in love are extremely jealous when they meet. It is strange that Feng Xiaotian can look good on Zheng Hu.
If he hadn't known that he was no match for the other party, he would have gone up to find trouble and beat Zheng Hu up.
Zheng Hu waved to the girls beside him and asked them to gather in front of him.
"Waiting for the game, Shui Bing'er, you will be the first to play, followed by Yu Hairou."
The girls were still listening to Zheng Hu's arrangements, but his words had ended.
Shui Bing'er couldn't help but ask: "Brother Zheng Hu, aren't you going to send seven people to fight?"
Zheng Hu smiled faintly and said: "Don't you two have the confidence to end the game? Although the opponents in the promotion round are stronger, they will not be stronger than the opponents they met before. One-on-one, there is no need to cooperate. Just relying on strength, don’t you two have confidence in your own strength?”
A simple sentence, but it immediately aroused the fighting spirit in the hearts of the girls. Shui Bing'er and Yu Hairou looked at each other, and in each other's eyes, they both saw the belief of victory.
Emperor Xue Ye stood up from the VIP seat and spoke loudly through the soul guide: "The promotion competition officially begins today. In the next fourteen days, I hope that the teams of each academy will give full play to their own strength and demonstrate the soul master's abilities. Some style, let’s start.”
As soon as his voice fell, shouts like a landslide and tsunami sounded in unison, "Long live, long live, long live."
The royal knights raised their spears high, the clanging of their armor and their loud shouts immediately startled the participating soul masters, and the demeanor of a great country was undoubtedly displayed.
The first game has already begun, and the first person to appear is Blazing Academy. Their opponent is a team called Fabia Academy.
Huo Wushuang, the official captain who represented the Blazing Academy for the first time. Obviously, the teacher from Blazing Academy had similar ideas to Zheng Hu. Not only did he want to win the first game, but he also wanted to score as big a score as possible.
In the final ranking of the promotion round, in addition to the big score, the small score of the victory is also extremely important. Once there is a big draw, the ranking will be based on the small score.
Zheng Hu did not pay attention to the game on the court, but stood next to Shui Bing'er and whispered to her: "You will be the first to appear in our game later. Once you find that you are restrained by your opponent, don't force yourself. You can't." Hurt. Do you understand?”
Zheng Hu originally wanted to be the first to appear, but in this case, the game completely lost its meaning, and the girls lost a good opportunity to exercise.
He is now like a strong man meeting a group of kindergarten children. Such a competition is meaningless to him. Therefore, he wants to use this one-on-one method to cultivate the girls' ability to face the enemy. time response capabilities.
However, having said that, these girls are his heart and soul, and they are treasures in the palms and backs of their hands. No matter which one is injured, he does not want to see it. Therefore, he came here to remind Shui Bing'er to do his best. That’s it, don’t show off.
There is a strong backing behind her.
This backing is him who is powerful and domineering.
Shui Bing'er felt moved in her heart. She felt Zheng Hu's deep concern. She couldn't help but smile sweetly at Zheng Hu and said, "Don't worry, brother, don't you know my strength? If you can't beat me, just give up." .”
Zheng Hu touched her head affectionately and said, "Be careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship. My little Bing'er must be more careful. If you get bumped somewhere, I will feel sorry for you, brother."
In the eyes of others, Shui Bing'er had always been cold and indifferent, as if she was an iceberg beauty, but in front of Zheng Hu, she seemed much more lively.
When she heard Zheng Hu say that she was young, she puffed up her chest in dissatisfaction and said, "I'm not young anymore. I'm already fourteen years old."
People on Douluo Continent are generally precocious. A fourteen-year-old girl is already a big girl and can get married.
At this time, Shui Bing'er had already grown into a big girl, and she had everything a woman should have.
Perhaps they were childhood sweethearts who had grown up together, so their behavior was more casual. Zheng Hu looked at Shui Bing'er with a smile, nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, our little Bing'er has grown into a big boy." It’s a girl.”
Shui Binger's pretty face was slightly red, looking both shy and proud.
She was shy because she was a girl after all, and she was still a young girl. She felt a little embarrassed when she blurted out these words.
She was proud because she was recognized by the man in front of her.
The man in front of her had been with her day and night and had grown up together. In her heart, he held a very important weight, even more important than her parents.
It was hard for her to imagine what would happen to her if the two separated in the future.
You'll definitely go crazy.
Therefore, she does not want to be separated from her eldest brother. She hopes that the two of them can be together forever.
She has become dependent on this big brother and this deep affection, and is afraid of losing it.
The game goes very fast. Once there is a gap in strength between soul masters, the victory or defeat is often in an instant. Whoever has stronger soul skills and higher soul power level can easily defeat the opponent. With soul bones, The situation is, after all, very rare.
In a one-on-one match, it is impossible to have a martial soul fusion technique, everything must rely on one's own strength.
In the first big match, Huo Wushuang lost three opponents in a row, and only after his soul power was greatly consumed, did he lose.
There can be no rest time in continuous battles. This is where the promotion round is more interesting than the qualifiers. It not only tests the strength of everyone in the team, but also the personnel and tactical arrangements are also very important. No matter how powerful the soul master is, it is also very important. It is difficult to defeat the opponent in a row on your own.
After all, no matter how powerful your soul skill is, your soul power is limited.
The second person to represent Blazing Academy was Huo Wu.
In the past month, Huo Wu would come to Zheng Hu's dormitory almost every night to compete with him on soul skills and discuss methods of cultivating soul power. Therefore, compared to the preliminaries, her current strength has grown rapidly.
However, because Zheng Hu had not invited her to join the Tianshui Sect, he did not give her the fairy grass and soul bones.
Zheng Hu is very principled in doing things. He will not give her all his good things just because the other party is a beautiful girl, just like licking a dog.
Unless she is one of his own, or one of his own, there is no way she can get any benefit from him.
Of course, Zheng Hu is only stingy towards outsiders, but he is very generous towards his own people.
If Huo Wu is willing to become his, he will naturally reward her with some of his extra treasures and train her to become a powerful soul master.
Relying on the advantage of the control soul master and the superb use of soul skills, Huo Wu actually defeated four people in a row, and the two brothers and sisters Huo Wushuang directly defeated Fabia's team.
When Huo Wu walked back from the competition venue, her physical strength was somewhat exhausted due to the heavy consumption of soul power, but her pale and pretty face was still full of smiles. She kept looking at Zheng Hu, and when she saw Zheng Hu also looked at her, and she couldn't help but smile charmingly at Zheng Hu. That smile seemed to contain gratitude. She was grateful for Zheng Hu's help to her over the past month, which made her strength even higher.
Zheng Hu smiled at her very gentlemanly and was very satisfied with her performance today.
After his instruction, Huo Wu has indeed become stronger. Although only one month has passed, the pressure on her body has become significantly stronger, and her explosive power is even more amazing.
It seems that the results of his hard work in teaching over the past month are quite good.
