"The current population of Hongdu has exceeded 2000 million, and the proportion of practitioners is much higher than the normal ratio, especially the number of practitioners above the Purple Mansion Realm is very large.

Regardless of purely commercial organizations or various sects, as long as they develop to a certain level, they will inevitably gather resources and manpower here, not to mention the plethora of official institutions and scientific research departments that you don't know.

Practitioners come and go in various ways, and many accidents and even tragedies have happened.

In the beginning, Hongdu just prohibited the direct entry of all kinds of birds and beasts. After all, no one can predict the excrement of animals. They fly to the top of the crowd and drop a lump of hot things, and most of the excrement smell of spirit beasts Very pungent, maybe even toxic, and you can imagine the mess that would create, so it was banned from the beginning.

Later, as the urban area of ​​Hongdu became larger and more populated, the strength, number, and proportion of practitioners increased rapidly, and all kinds of magic weapons were banned one after another, and all kinds of flying boats and shuttles were banned. .

If there are special transportation requirements, it is necessary to submit a special application report to obtain a special air route, otherwise accidents will easily occur. "

"The only thing that hasn't been completely banned is that practitioners above the Golden Core Realm fly with the Escape Light. However, there are also special route controls, and in some special no-fly areas, entry and no-flying are also prohibited."

"However, with so many restrictions, everyone's travel needs also exist objectively. In a huge urban area with a population of more than 2000 million, if everyone walks on the ground streets, it will cause more congestion and accidents.

So there are intercity buses and several other travel tools that are operated uniformly under the management of intelligent networks. They operate at different spatial heights, strictly abide by the rules, and regulate possible accidents during travel as much as possible.

After a brief introduction, he chose to shut up.

Because everyone looked out the window.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The flight height of the intercity bus is 50 meters above the ground, and everything on the ground can be seen clearly.

Even more than half of the buildings are over 50 meters high, and intercity buses flying along fixed routes are like fish swimming in this man-made jungle.

As the intercity bus gradually enters the area and becomes more and more prosperous, more and more similar intercity buses can be seen along the way. They use the rooftops of suitable heights as "springboards" to cycle along a fixed route. In the end, the entire city of Hongdu was shrouded in this network.

Everyone looked at everything outside through the car window, and all kinds of novelty rushed into their eyes, feeling dizzying.

Not too long passed, and the intercity bus was parked on a wide platform extending from the middle of a huge building.

This huge building as a whole looks like a huge goose egg lying flat on the ground - one-third of it is buried underground, and only two-thirds of it is exposed above the ground in the shape of a goose egg.

"The Hongdu People's Training Center is here. This is the Intercity Sightseeing Bus No. 1054. You are welcome to take it. I look forward to meeting you next time. Goodbye!"

When Jiang Buku and others got off the bus one after another, the intercity bus automatically closed the door, then floated into the air again, and drove away into the distance.

And on this platform, there is already a group of more than ten people waiting. They are the "old friends" of Vice President Liu, who have made a lot of friends, and come from the other three academies.

Of course, the alliance of the four schools is not the business of Yunlai Academy. It is the four academies fighting as a whole. Seeing Vice President Liu and his party at this moment, their eyes are full of sincere joy.

The once tense swords turned into a strong comrade-in-arms at this moment.

The three vice-principals from Lingqing, Chongfeng and Guangxin academies all smiled and reached out to greet Vice-principal Liu.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Everyone thanked each other for their hard work. There were elements of politeness, but also sincerity.

Tomorrow is the official final day. It is very hasty and risky to lead the team here at this time, which is still so different from the trial environment. It will be interrupted in advance, and this is a situation they don't want to see.

Therefore, after watching everyone's daily training from afar, the leaders of the league from the other three schools took the initiative to ask for help. They went to the final field to play in the front and let the children practice in the rear until the last moment.

Everyone cooperates tacitly, divides labor and cooperates, but sincerely hopes that the joint school team can perform better.

They led Vice President Liu, Jiang Buku and a group of people inside, while briefly introducing the current situation:

"In the beginning, according to Hongdu Academy's suggestion, it was originally planned to arrange the final venue in the training venue in Hongdu Academy, but this was strongly opposed by the Taoist Academy.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, the Hongdu government came up with a new plan, which was to arrange the final venue here. "

"This Hongdu people's training hall is an extremely important part of the Hongdu government's efforts to create a new urban structure in recent years. In addition, there is also the Hongdu People's Collection Library, which was upgraded on the basis of the previous super-large library. It is the corresponding preaching place, place of blessed life, hall of discussing Taoism and other places.

Its intention is to build the whole city into a super school, aiming at adult education and citizen education. The last leader of Hongdu personally wrote the inscription "Life is boundless, learning is boundless", especially for practitioners, living When you grow old and learn to grow old, you should always walk on the road.

The idea is good, but the effect... Hehe, whether it is an ordinary person with no cultivation base or a practitioner with cultivation base, once they are over thirty, they basically don't have the mentality to take the initiative to study and grow.

Even with such a good platform, they have already decided that they are born at this level, and learning is impossible. "

"Now these places are basically used by practitioners from various sect organizations for them to discuss and communicate, so there is also a lot of revenue.

But this benefit was not taken seriously by the Hongdu officials. Instead, they regretted that these buildings failed to meet expectations.

When the Hongdu Academy and the Daoist Academy had a dispute over the venue for the finals, the Hongdu officials took the initiative to raise this opinion, promising to provide the Hongdu People's Training Hall to the inter-school league for free during the finals. "

Vice President Liu listened to the introduction of the first comer, thoughtful in his heart, looked at this magnificent and huge venue, and said: "I'm afraid this venue can accommodate a hundred thousand spectators, right?"

One explained with a smile:

"More than 100, it can be flexibly adjusted according to the number of people, and the maximum number of people it can carry is [-] million!

According to the official statement, they hope that the trend blowing up from our special practice academy will have a wider impact on the practice atmosphere in Hongdu. "

Vice President Liu said with a half-smile, "I think there's some sense of learning from the scriptures."

"Learn the scriptures?" One person asked suspiciously.

"I'm not boasting, but as far as the atmosphere in the practice world is concerned, once a new trend blows up in our entire Special Practice Academy, other practitioners will naturally imitate and learn, and even become fans step by step.

Maybe in the future, Hongdu officials will use cities or states as units, and follow the model of our inter-school league to create a similar game. "Vice President Liu said lightly.

Hearing the words, the man opened his mouth, finally nodded and said: "It makes sense!"

……

Because someone was going to the front line, all the procedures and preparations had been done, and there was no need for Jiang Buku and the team members to put in any extra thought.

In the words of a former leading teacher, don’t treat them as teachers or school leaders, just treat them as service servants. You can tell them about any difficult and miscellaneous matters, and let them come forward to solve them. Their only task is the finals. In the battle itself, nothing else needs to be concerned.

Just as they were talking, they were ushered into a large and spacious private room. On five large tables, all kinds of elixir diets with excellent color and fragrance were placed, and they were greeted to sit down for a meal. The teacher can complete it very naturally and smoothly with a friendly smile, which will not make the team members feel the slightest embarrassment.

After the meal, everyone was led to the room on the same floor, each with a separate large suite. The rooms, which are not small in size, are like magnificent and luxurious palaces under the effective use of the Tuokong array.

They are arranging for them to rest at ease, and someone will come to remind them tomorrow morning, so there is no need to worry about oversleeping.

After everything was arranged and handled properly, they retreated quietly.

Jiang Buku walked around the huge suite by himself, then sat cross-legged on the couch to adjust his breath.

At first, there was still a little discomfort.

Because although the Spirit Gathering Formation is used in this room to make the spiritual energy more intense than the outside room, it does not have a unique breath of life. Therefore, the efficiency of practice is naturally far from being comparable to that in the special blessed place of life.

This is that if you are used to eating refined rice and fine grains, you will instinctively feel uncomfortable if you eat rough tea and light rice, and it will even be difficult to swallow like cutting your throat.

However, after all, his state of mind is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and he quickly adjusted his state of mind, and began to try to enjoy the original and simple meaning revealed in this "rough tea and light meal".

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Buku opened his eyes, with some doubts in his heart. According to the arrangement of those teachers, no one should disturb him at this time.

At this moment, Zhu Furong's voice sounded outside the door: "Captain, are you resting?"

Ever since he entered the team, Zhu Furong's name for him has changed to this. Jiang Buku guessed that he did it to better integrate into the team, instead of using a more intimate name to show the special relationship between the two.

"I'm practicing, but I was interrupted by you now...do you want to see me now?" Jiang Buku opened the door and asked.

"Uh——" Zhu Furong, who entered the room with him, was choked by this answer. No matter how well-organized and meticulous the teachers' arrangements were, on the eve of the finals of this kind, which young man could suppress the excitement in his heart and put Force yourself to rest in the room?

What's more, this place is not a special blessed place of life. Even if one night of hard training, that little change, which can't even be called a change, will have much effect on tomorrow's finals?

However, this kind of approach might surprise others, but in "Jiang Ping", it is really a normal choice.

So, after being slightly choked, Zhu Furong directly explained the purpose of his visit:

"Isn't it that everyone is a little excited, not to mention that with our cultivation base, we can withstand ten and a half months without rest, so someone went out of the room and found that the Taoist team is on the floor above us.

Just now Luo Xuansheng met Zhuo Bufan over there, so he sent a message to me to meet up with his old classmates.

And let me come to you to ask... It's not that he doesn't respect you, he knows your character, and he is afraid that you will refuse directly if you send me a direct message, which will be embarrassing, so let me do it for you. "

Jiang Buku didn't think much about it, and said, "I won't go, you guys should be careful, don't miss tomorrow's game."

Zhuo Bufan, Luo Xuansheng, and Zhu Furong are old classmates who have been in the same class for many years. They have been in the same circle long before entering the county school.

And I only inserted it in the last semester, so his "old classmate" was a little too watery.

In addition, he is not good at dealing with such occasions by nature, and he will be boring when he goes there, making himself uncomfortable and making others uncomfortable, so of course, practicing in the room is more in line with his aesthetics.

Seeing his refusal so straightforwardly, Zhu Furong was not surprised, and said: "Don't worry, it's very safe, you won't even leave this floor, just chatting next to where we had dinner just now."

Jiang Buku didn't have much to say at first, but in the end he couldn't help but reminded him: "It's better for you to tell Han Feng."

Zhu Furong laughed and said: "Afraid that we will leak the military plane? Don't worry, he has already thought of it. He even reminded us to go outside for a walk when we can't calm down. Okay, let's not talk, I'm leaving."

Until Zhu Furong left the room and gently closed the door, Jiang Buku was still a little stunned.

He really didn't expect Han Feng to be such a thief.

If we talk about old classmates, Han Feng, Xu Han, Wang Ruoxu, and Du Tao probably have quite a few old classmates in the Taoist Academy. There are also other official members and substitutes who can find "old classmates" Bar?

It seems that the final has not yet started, the final seems to have begun.

He just shook his head, then continued to sit cross-legged on the couch, and soon entered a state of deep cultivation.

……

Zhu Furong came to a hall next to the dinner just now.

The huge hall is divided into semi-independent spaces by various green plants and translucent crystals. In the half-dimmed light, he stepped on the soft velvet carpet and walked in the corridor. The music that makes people feel noisy but pleasant is only a few steps away. Zhu Furong felt in a trance that a rough man like himself suddenly had a lot of poetic and picturesque feelings in his heart.

"Charm formation?" He shook his head, thinking so in his heart, he broke free from the atmosphere of seducing people's soul through sensual techniques, and kept himself awake.

"Interesting." He thought to himself.

Walking in the corridor, he could see semi-independent compartments with different numbers from time to time, and could vaguely see someone inside, but because of the barrier and interference of the formation, he neither knew who it was nor what they were talking about. He knew that this place was just quiet, not just his ghost.

Through this small method, the discomfort caused by the too quiet environment is offset.

When he came to the numbered room that Luo Xuansheng informed him, he rang the doorbell, and Luo Xuansheng opened the door from the inside.

He not only saw Zhuo Bufan who was sitting there smiling warmly at him, but also Xue Xiaojing. He was a little absent-minded for a moment after not seeing him for nearly a year. This one really has the charm of a fairy.

In a daze, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Li Wanyue who was sitting opposite Xue Xiaojing, and tried to compare it with the image in his memory a year ago, only to find that the person next to him had also changed a lot, but because he got along every day, he was too used to it , so that this is ignored.

"What's the matter, did you get so excited when you saw your old classmate?" Li Wanyue threw a fist-sized spiritual fruit towards him, Zhu Furong instinctively caught it, took a bite, and returned to normal. .

Xue Xiaojing also looked at Zhu Furong carefully, and said, "You haven't changed that much."

Zhu Furong responded with a grin: "I was really a little silly just now. I didn't realize that my old classmate had turned into a fairy."

He was even thinking in his heart, if he told Jiang Ping that Xue Xiaojing was there just now, would he be rewarding him?

Xue Xiaojing giggled when she heard this.

After chatting for a few words, Xue Xiaojing and Li Wanyue began to communicate in a low voice again, and several other people were mentioned in the words. When it came to Wang Xue and Liu Jing's recent situation, Xue Xiaojing was sincerely happy, and when it came to Qu Ling and Zheng Zhi's choice, she also Some look sad.

Zhu Furong sat down next to Luo Xuansheng, looking at Zhuo Bufan opposite, the expression on this guy's face was still so annoying, the corner of his mouth smiled lightly, the clouds were calm, as if he was born to belong to the clouds in the sky, but they belonged to Dirty world.

In the past, he would only be depressed, because he is so good, and if you can't accept the fact that they are so good, it's not his fault.

However, now he was thinking in his heart: "Smile, I'll see if you can still smile after tomorrow."

He had a vague feeling that Jiang Ping's existence was a "magic obstacle" to his old classmates.

Although he never targeted them, he always only stared at his feet and walked his own path steadily, but they had to face him, and they had to overcome the "obstacles" that he unintentionally left in their hearts after he walked.

In the face of this "magic obstacle", we can make different choices, but we cannot avoid it, let alone pretend not to see it.

For example, what he and Li Wanyue, Liu Jing, and Wang Xue made was a choice, and he believed that Luo Xuansheng, Qu Ling, Zheng Zhi, and the others were taking the current path, not to mention all, but they were somewhat affected by it.

But now, this "magic obstacle" is about to hang in Zhuo Bufan's heart.

But with Zhuo Bufan's pride, this demonic obstacle is not so easy to overcome.

Thinking of this, he even felt a little optimistic about the show.

Even though he thought so, he didn't mention Jiang Ping a single word in his chats with them, and the same was true for Luo Xuansheng and Li Wanyue.

Even when Xue Xiaojing asked curiously, Li Wanyue also said in a calm tone:

"His temperament is unlikely to change in 100 years. He practices and cultivates. In his life, he has nothing but cultivation, so there is really nothing to say."

Xue Xiaojing heard the words, nodded with a smile and said: "Indeed, it is conceivable."

Zhu Furong turned his eyes around the two of them, and said curiously: "Have you all broken through the Zifu Realm? Awesome!"

Xue Xiaojing said: "Actually, the three of you really surprised me. With your state, in the environment of the academy, you will be able to break through to the purple mansion in two or three months at most, right?

Zhuo Bufan and I have stayed in our respective Taoist colleges for nearly two semesters to achieve such an achievement, but you have only entered this newly established academy for less than one semester, and you were still studying in the state school last semester, and the conditions of the state school, Regardless of the software and hardware facilities, or the competitive environment, it is much worse, but your progress is not much slower than ours, which is really surprising. "

In fact, there is another reason that was not mentioned, but it is the most important reason, that is, her and Zhuo Bufan's cultivation talents are indeed better than those of Zhu Furong, Luo Xuansheng, and Li Wanyue.
