Overtake the Big Four?
Although Lu Ping had returned to his room, he could still hear the conversation in the courtyard clearly.
Of course, he had heard the joke of overtaking the Big Four. He did not laugh at it, nor did he care too much. But he could see that on this topic, Zhenfeng College was very embarrassed and embarrassed. Everyone was willing to believe that this was just a joke of the Dean's.
So it wasn't a joke?
So Guo Youdao was still looking forward to realizing it in his lifetime?
Lu Ping did not know much about the Big Four. He only knew that Zhenfeng College had four outstanding students who were the most talked about. Their achievements were only absorbed by the Big Four.
From this point of view, Zhenfeng College was as far away as heaven and hell from the Big Four. But Guo Youdao was so seriously looking forward to it. For the past twenty years, what had he done with this goal? Lu Ping did not know, but pinning his hopes on Lu Ping and the others should not be part of the plan. Each of them had a rare bloodline, and Heavenly Awakened who had connected their six physical bodies were legendary existences. If he was looking forward to this element from the beginning, then Guo Youdao's goal of overtaking the Big Four was really just a fantasy.
It could not be like this …
In Lu Ping's mind, Guo Youdao's stooped back as he walked back to his room appeared. He only saw it once, but he could not forget it. Such a heavy sense of loss must have come from the disappointment of serious expectations, and not some unrealistic illusion.
That night, except for Morin, no one slept well. The next morning, when he came out of his room, he saw that Guo Youdao had already gotten up early and was standing in the courtyard with a serious face.
Lu Ping, Su Tang, and Siffin could not help but come in front of Guo Youdao. Even Morin, who was in the Soul Chopping state, was dragged over, although he could not see or hear them at all.
"There are still fourteen days before the Soul Picking Contest." Guo Youdao said, "In any case, we should get the first place!"
"Yes!" They all nodded. If others were to see this, they would definitely laugh their heads off. It had to be Tenshou or Bipolar who dared to use such a tone. How dare a mere Zhenfeng College be so arrogant?
Furthermore, even Tenshou and Shuang Ji did not dare to claim first place in this year's gathering. Because Qin Sang was one of the participants this year.
It was not because of the powerful background of the Qin family that no one dared to compete with her, but because of Qin Sang's outstanding strength. The Awakened of the Chong Soul, the bloodline possessor of the Qin family's Bloodline Inheritance Ability. There was also the Level Five Divine Weapon, the Kuei Sword. Ever since she was born, she had been far ahead of many people. Ever since she started cultivating, she had never slacked. Her strength was more despairing than her identity.
But now, what no one said was said by the laughable dean of Zhenfeng College. His students also agreed with a straight face. It was not a joke.
"Alright, work hard on your cultivation!" Guo Youdao said, and walked out of the courtyard with a face full of relief. No one knew where he was going to go.
Lu Ping and the others who stayed in the courtyard looked at each other. After a while, it was still Lu Ping who spoke first, "Do you guys think the dean is fooling us?"
"What do you mean?" Siffin said.
"We won't be able to surpass the Big Four. Lower the requirements and work hard at the Soul Picking Contest! "Lu Ping said.
"You don't have to be so wary," Siffin said.
"But my emotions are a little like that," Lu Ping said.
"Uh …" Siffin muttered to himself and didn't speak again, because what Lu Ping said was right. He also had similar emotions, and it was indeed because he suddenly felt a little guilty after seeing Guo Youdao's decadence last night. Therefore, he was willing to accept what Guo Youdao said today as long as it wasn't too outrageous.
Was this really the dean putting on an act?
Siffin shook his head. He was good at judging emotions. At least, Guo Youdao's disappointment last night didn't seem that way to him. But on this side, Lu Ping already said, "The dean is very disappointed, but even so, he didn't force us. Let's take advantage of this and retreat a little. Our dean is still a little cunning. "
"I haven't gone far yet." Guo Youdao's voice came from outside the courtyard.
"Ahem …" Siffin coughed.
"Look, he even eavesdropped on our reactions. Isn't he cunning?" Lu Ping said.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Siffin coughed loudly. He wanted to interrupt Lu Ping's words and also tried to cover up Lu Ping's voice, but in the end, he failed.
"It's good that you know." Then, Guo Youdao's voice came from outside the courtyard. It sounded a little farther than before.
"The dean is so attentive, we must work hard," Lu Ping said.
It sounded like he was mocking Guo Youdao, but when Lu Ping said it, it seemed like he understood Guo Youdao's intentions. He was really determined to work hard. Siffin couldn't tell Lu Ping's true emotions, so he didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, there was no more sound from outside the courtyard. Guo Youdao had really gone far away.
"Work hard!" Lu Ping said. He had already walked to the side and started practicing. Su Tang, who hadn't spoken much, followed him seriously and started practicing seriously.
Siffin looked at Morin, who was supporting his wheelchair. He didn't know anything about last night or what happened just now, so he didn't know what he was thinking.
Cultivation. The next fourteen days were all cultivation.
Regardless of whether it was Lu Ping, Su Tang, or Siffin, they had all reached a new level. A new state, a new power, all of which they needed to experience and understand.
Lu Ping and Su Tang had mastered new abilities, but Siffin hadn't yet. Guo Youdao and Chu Min weren't proficient in Spirit Essence, so the help they could provide was limited. Fortunately, Siffin had long been used to this. He calmly healed his injuries while exploring alone.
Fourteen days passed in a flash. No one came to disturb them, and the few who were focused on cultivation didn't pay attention to other things. They just heard that the number of people who signed up for this year's Soul Gathering broke the historical record, more than any previous year. The registration day was the third day, so it was extended for a long time.
What worried Lu Ping and the others the most was that they were going to participate in the Soul Gathering early in the morning, but Morin was still in a state of slashing. He lived like this for a full month, blind, deaf, and speechless.
Everyone didn't worry about his state, because his mood continued to be good. In this month, he even gained a little weight, probably because he only enjoyed eating, causing him to eat too attentively.
"Is he not going to participate in the Soul Gathering?" Su Tang said.
"I said it, I'm not familiar with this child. You see, he's not reliable, right?" Guo Youdao said to Chu Min.
"Hehe." Chu Min just smiled, she didn't take the Soul Gathering seriously at all.
"It doesn't matter, there can only be one first." Lu Ping said.
"Although it's not good to be so frank, it's still deep in my heart!" Guo Youdao sighed.
"Do we still take him?" Siffin asked. His injury has now been healed, and a few days ago, he got rid of the wheelchair and walked.
"Bring him, maybe he will suddenly be proficient?" Su Tang said.
"Okay!" Lu Ping said and carried Morin on his back, "Then let's go."
"The two of us will follow." Guo Youdao said and looked at Chu Min, "Or me alone?"
