Encounter in the Forest

At this time, the sun was rising, and the morning light was shining on the earth, illuminating the entire forest beautifully. Among the swaying shadows of the trees, there were rays of afterglow flickering in the middle, which looked extremely clear and bright.

"Shua!"

"Hua La..."

In the jungle where the afterglow was flickering, two figures, one black and one white, flickered quickly.

Lin Zheng, who was dressed in a black robe, and Xiao Ling'er, who was dressed in a white robe, looked like a fairy couple, extremely elegant. The two of them stepped on the ground repeatedly, like a phantom, at an incredibly fast speed.

The two walked hand in hand, Lin Zheng tightly held the boneless little hand, and couldn't help but look sideways. The beautiful woman beside him was like an iceberg that had never melted for thousands of years. Only when facing Lin Zheng did she show a hint of smile.

"Huh..."

With a beautiful woman by his side, the fragrance of the air hit him, making him feel refreshed. However, Lin Zheng walked silently by his side, and a sigh came out of his mouth.

For a year, Xiao Ling'er practiced swordsmanship all day long on the cliffs without stopping.

The reason was to wait for him.

Thinking of this, Lin Zheng's expression was a little sad.

He owed her too much, too much.

However, just when Lin Zheng sighed softly, he felt that the right hand holding Xiao Ling'er suddenly tightened. He turned his head and saw that Xiao Ling'er's beautiful face suddenly showed a burst of joy, as if the ice that had been frozen for thousands of years had melted and was filled with spring breeze. She didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly.

"With a beautiful woman like this, what else can a husband ask for?"

At this moment, Lin Zheng's heart suddenly became clear, and his heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

"Hu..."

"Huchi..."

The two walked hand in hand at a very fast speed, bringing a sharp gust of wind, rushing towards the surroundings.

In the flickering jungle, two figures, one white and one black, looked particularly clear.

...

The mountain range in Nanshan College is only a few hundred feet high and is located on the edge of Nanshan College. There are some low-level beasts hidden in it, which are provided for the students of Nanshan College to test and improve their combat level.

As soon as the sky was dawning, there were already many students on the mountain. Suddenly, the long roars of the monsters echoed one after another and resounded through the void.

Lin Zheng and Xiao Ling'er were extremely fast, rushing from the top of the mountain, bringing a gust of wind. All the monsters passing by along the way avoided it and did not dare to move forward easily.

From the top of the mountain down, it was cool and there was no one in sight. The two of them were running very fast, passing through the jungle quickly, only touching the leaves and branches, making a "rustling" sound.

However, when they reached the middle of the mountain, they could hear people talking not far away. Many students who got up early had already gone up the mountain to look for wild beasts lurking in it.

In order not to attract attention, Lin Zheng and Xiao Ling'er decided to go around from the other side. Although the mountain road there was rugged and the level of the wild beasts was a bit higher, they were not afraid of it with their current strength.

The mountain road was rugged, the rocks were ups and downs, and the leaves and branches were crisscrossed, blocking the road, and they could not find the exit at all.

For Lin Zheng and Xiao Ling'er, these obstacles were naturally fearless. Not to mention the sharp and unparalleled long sword in Xiao Ling'er's hand, which could cut iron like mud, just the wooden sword in Lin Zheng's hand, as he swung it, the leaves and branches had already broken quickly into several pieces.

The rough road did not cause much hindrance to the two. After about a quarter of an hour, the world in front of them suddenly became clear. Through the layers of shade, they could vaguely see that there were magnificent buildings at the foot of the mountain. That was Nanshan College.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a series of explosions came from not far away, and they fell to the ground with a bang, making explosions one after another, echoing in their ears.

In an instant, whether it was Lin Zheng or Xiao Ling'er, both of them began to be alert, looking around vigilantly, and even their breathing became a little hurried.

On the mountain of Nanshan College, the highest level is the third-level beast. Some of the beasts are huge and bloodthirsty by nature. Even if ordinary elite students face them alone, they may need to spend some means.

Therefore, at this time, Lin Zheng and Xiao Ling'er did not dare to be careless. They held their weapons and slowly approached forward.

As we got closer, we could see through the shadows of the trees that a gray-robed figure was standing about three feet away, holding a broadsword in his hand, with a blade of light overflowing, and with unstoppable power, he was fighting a beast in front of him.

It was a beast similar to a tiger, with sharp fangs exposed, nearly ten feet long, and shiny fur on its body, as if it was covered with a layer of oil.

At this time, the beast was hunched over, with a pair of copper bell-sized eyes staring at the gray-robed man in front of it, and its mouth kept making "woohoo" sounds, which was extremely dangerous, and a fierce breath spread rapidly with it.

One person and one head, confronting each other, the atmosphere around them became extremely tense, as if even the air was oppressed and solidified into a piece, revealing an atmosphere of urgency.

The two sides confronted each other, staring at each other with a fierce look, and for a while they were on guard against each other, and no one took the initiative to attack.

"Woo..."

A low sound suddenly broke the silence, and a blade light suddenly appeared, making a humming sound, rising and falling in the ear.

"Huff..."

Along with the rise and fall of the knife, a fierce momentum suddenly came out, and a large blade light swept, instantly covering the gray-robed figure.

"Hoo--"

The gray-robed figure raised the knife to attack, and at the same time, a low roar came out of his mouth, exploding like a thunder, and fell to the ground with a bang.

In an instant, the knife shadows filled the sky, with unparalleled momentum, rushing straight towards the beast. The beast standing in front of him also roared repeatedly, the sound was like thunder, and it echoed one after another.

Both sides rushed towards each other, aggressively, and did not show weakness. Whether it was the gray-robed man or the beast, they rushed towards each other.

"Huff, huff..."

The blade light changed rapidly, and when it was about to fall on the beast, it suddenly changed from stabbing forward to sweeping horizontally. The sharp blade light rushed forward with unmatched momentum.

"Roar..."

"Boom boom..."

The beast roared, and the sound rolled away like thunder, with an unstoppable airflow, spreading to the surroundings.

At this moment, the beast stood there straight, its huge body stopped abruptly, and only a low "woooo" sound came out of its mouth.

"Puff puff puff..."

A mouthful of bright red blood coughed out of the beast's mouth, and then on the huge body, on the shiny fur, blood stains suddenly oozed out, quickly dyeing its huge body red, and finally dripping on the ground.

"Hu."

The gray-robed man suddenly cried out, and his expression relaxed as never before. He was obviously very satisfied with the sword just now.

When he stood with his sword put away, he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Lin Zheng and the others. With a "hum" sound, he raised the long sword in his hand and pointed it in the direction of Lin Zheng, and at the same time, he uttered a low shout.

"Who!"

"Come out."

This low shout was like thunder falling to the ground, and it sounded particularly clear in the mountains and forests.

"Lin Jinglei, it turned out to be him?"

When the gray-robed man shouted, Lin Zheng, who was hiding in a certain place, showed a look of surprise on his face and couldn't help but cry out.

For this low shout, Xiao Ling'er frowned slightly, and wanted to raise the long sword in her hand and walk out, but was stopped by Lin Zheng with a horizontal hand.

"Don't go out."

"I'll do it."

Lin Zheng's deep voice sounded here, full of confidence.

"But, Brother Lin Zheng..."

Xiao Ling'er seemed a little worried, and said anxiously.

"Don't worry."

"I know what's going on."

Lin Zheng subconsciously clenched Xiao Ling'er's weak little hand, and said calmly.

After saying that, Lin Zheng did not stop, stood up from the bushes, picked up the wooden sword in his hand, and walked out.

"I didn't expect that Teacher Lin got up so early."

Lin Zheng walked out with a smile on his face, and when his figure entered Lin Jinglei's sight, he said with a bit of teasing.

"Lin Zheng?!"

"It's you?"

Lin Jinglei tightly grasped the broadsword in his hand, and when he saw that the person who appeared in front of him was Lin Zheng, his face showed a hint of surprise, and he spoke with some disbelief.

Lin Zheng did not take the latter's surprise to heart, but just moved forward slowly and approached slowly.

"Chi La!"

With a low sound, the wooden sword cut through the air, piercing the sky and making a crisp sound.

After practicing at the bottom of the lake for a night, the cold beads in his body changed, making Lin Zheng feel a faint sign of a breakthrough. At this time, facing Lin Jinglei, he was full of fighting spirit and eager for a hearty battle.

"I am a humble student, and I would like to ask Teacher Lin for some advice."

"Please."

Lin Zheng's robe moved without wind, hitting the air, making a "rustling" sound, which sounded particularly clear. At the same time, he raised the wooden sword in his hand and pointed it forward, pointing at Lin Jinglei.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Lin Jinglei was also very surprised in his heart, frowning and looking at him, with a hint of incredible look in front of his eyes.

"Lin Zheng, you are courting death."

"Don't blame me!"

Then, Lin Jinglei showed an unconcealable surprise on his face, and at the same time, the gloomy voice spread, clearly ringing in the air.

"Boom!"

Lin Jinglei shook the broadsword in his hand, the blade was sharp, leaving traces in the air, and the momentum completely burst out.

Feeling the momentum emerging from Lin Jinglei not far away, Lin Zheng was secretly shocked: "His strength is estimated to have reached the seventh level of the body refining realm."

"Even, it is the peak!"

Based on the momentum alone, Lin Zheng roughly guessed it, but there was no panic on his face, but the fighting spirit was all over the place, and he became more excited.

He took a step forward with a "dong" sound, and the wooden sword drew a circle in the air, and finally shouted:

"Come on!"
