Chapter 218: Meeting
Shua!
The knife that Chu Tian chopped down was like a bright comet that was constantly burning, with a long tail, and suddenly fell from the sky!
Bang!
The bright and burning knife light suddenly chopped the ground!
With a bang, a striking crack appeared in the desert, and then spread forward at a high speed, spreading for more than ten feet before it stopped.
Strangely, after this striking crack appeared, it existed for a long time like the crack chopped by the white-clothed swordsman.
"My belief is to protect, to protect my friends, my home, and everything I cherish!"
"My character is that if people don't offend me, I won't offend others, but if people offend me, I will offend them!"
Chu Tian whispered in a deep voice.
At this moment, Chu Tian felt that his thoughts were clear, and his mind was clearer than ever before.
He initially found his own beliefs and his own personality.
Although this belief and personality may not be the deepest thing in Chu Tian's heart, it is an extremely solid step taken by Chu Tian on the road to understanding the meaning of the knife!
Chu Tian slashed out with a knife, stood there, motionless, closed his eyes and comprehended.
After a few breaths, he suddenly opened his eyes and nodded secretly.
"My sword intention should have reached the initial stage!"
Chu Tian whispered.
Then, he suddenly looked up and looked at the white-clothed swordsman opposite.
After the white-clothed swordsman slashed out with a knife, his internal energy seemed to have been consumed to the extreme, and his body looked extremely illusory, as if it could disappear at any time.
Chu Tian took a deep breath and bowed deeply to the white-clothed swordsman opposite.
Just as Chu Tian bowed deeply, the corners of the white-clothed swordsman's mouth actually raised a faint smile of appreciation.
Immediately, with a snap, the white-clothed swordsman's extremely illusory body exploded directly, turned into stars, and disappeared.
Chu Tian stood up, looking at the rapidly blurring picture, and a sense of loss arose in his heart.
In a flash, Chu Tian returned to the hall again.
He opened his eyes and found that the swordsman statue standing on the ground was still the same as before, but it had completely lost its inner charm and turned into an ordinary stone.
Then, Chu Tian quickly turned his head and scanned the whole place.
In a moment, he found that a light and shadow gate appeared on the wall of the hall not far away, and a trace of joy suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Swish!
Chu Tian's figure flashed and rushed directly into the light gate and disappeared.
Just three breaths after Chu Tian rushed into the light gate, Qu Xiaoer and Xue Tian woke up almost at the same time, turned around and rushed into the light gate.
One breath later, Zhan Zijie woke up and rushed into the light gate.
Two or three breaths later, Dang Fengyun woke up, shouted, and rushed into the light gate.
The remaining people still stood in front of the statue, struggling to comprehend.
"Just as I expected, Chu Tian, this kid, actually won the first place!"
Xue Mingqing's eyes flashed, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.
At the same time, he began to cast a spell secretly, trying to move his body.
...
After Chu Tian rushed into the light gate, he suddenly saw endless light and closed his eyes.
When Chu Tian opened his eyes again, he was stunned and his face showed extreme shock.
At this moment, he found himself standing under a crooked tree.
What he saw was lush trees, clusters of flowers, and colorful fallen petals. A crescent lake lay quietly not far away, and a thatched house stood next to the lake.
In front of the thatched house, many gorgeous flowers were planted.
An old man in a gray shirt was squatting in the flower field, busy taking care of the flowers growing on the ground.
From time to time, one or two snow-white rabbits ran by among the flowers, suddenly stopped, and after quietly looking at Chu Tian for a few times, they kicked their hind legs and ran away in an instant.
Here, it was like a paradise!
Chu Tian stared at the old man in a gray shirt squatting in the flower field with his eyes fixed. Just as he was about to call him senior, he suddenly heard a light sound behind him and hurriedly looked back.
Qu Xiaoer and Xue Tian walked out of the void almost at the same time.
After the two appeared, they immediately showed shock on their faces.
Obviously, they were also shocked by the scene in front of them.
Then, Zhan Zijie and Dang Fengyun walked out of the void one after another.
"Haha, they are all here!"
At this moment, the gray-shirted old man suddenly stood up, looked at the few people, and said with a smile.
The old man had a head full of silver hair, an ordinary face, and was approachable. He looked like a court official who had retired and returned to his hometown in the secular world. Although he had retired, there was still a hint of sharpness between his eyebrows.
"Meet the old dean Gongsun!"
Chu Tian and other Tianji Academy disciples hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Gongsun Tai's portrait was hung in many important places in Tianji Academy. It was not a secret, so Chu Tian and others immediately judged that the gray-shirted old man must be Gongsun Tai, the first dean of Tianji Academy!
"Haha, I'm just a dead man, you don't have to do this!"
Gongsun Tai stepped out of the flower field and said with a smile.
After hearing this, Chu Tian and the others suddenly showed a trace of sadness on their faces.
It was obvious that Gongsun Tai was in a state of residual soul at the moment. I don’t know what means he used to survive until today.
“Tianji College, is everything okay?”
After a few breaths, Gongsun Tai suddenly asked casually.
Zhan Zijie hurriedly took a step forward and rushed to reply respectfully: “Tianji College is fine, please don’t worry about it, old dean!”
While speaking, Zhan Zijie laughed secretly in his heart.
At this moment, he took the initiative to show his ability in order to leave a good impression on Gongsun Tai.
In this way, perhaps, he could gain a slight advantage invisibly.
Gongsun Tai heard Zhan Zijie's answer and nodded secretly, and the worry between his eyebrows slowly faded away.
Hundreds of years ago, he founded Tianji College single-handedly, and naturally hoped that Tianji College could exist for a long time, grow and develop, and cultivate more outstanding disciples.
"Old Dean, many disciples of the college miss the great achievements of the old dean very much. The current dean Li Jianming has repeatedly emphasized that the greatest credit for Tianji College to be what it is today must be attributed to old dean Gongsun!"
Zhan Zijie took the opportunity to flatter him again.
Chu Tian, Qu Xiaoer and Dang Fengyun all showed a trace of contempt at the same time.
"Haha, I hope your strength can be as good as your flattery skills!"
Suddenly, Gongsun Tai smiled at Zhan Zijie.
After hearing this, Zhan Zijie's face flushed red, and he felt uncomfortable all over. He wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Hehe!"
Chu Tian and the other two laughed secretly at the same time.
Zhan Zijie thought that he could seize the initiative by flattering others, but he didn't expect that he was exposed by the old Dean Gongsun, which made him look ashamed.
Xue Tian stood aside with a gloomy face.
Gongsun Tai was busy talking with Chu Tian and other Tianji Academy disciples, and didn't even look at him.
From this point of view, he was most likely out of luck this time.
"You are all outstanding, but my inheritance can only be left to one person. Now it's the last test, you should all do your best!"
After a few breaths, Gongsun Tai spoke in a deep voice.
Immediately, one of his palms suddenly raised and slapped at several people in the air!
