Qingyang College, Central Plaza, was crowded with people in front and back, waiting for the start of the election.

"Old Qiao, you came so late today, I must have gone to Mr. Wei's place."

Li Lei asked Qiao Yuan beside him with an excited and curious look on his face.

On such an important day of the election, Qiao Yuan was late, and Li Lei guessed that he must have gone to meet Mr. Wei.

Two years ago, Qiao Yuan did not hide it from Li Lei before leaving. He told him that he had communicated with Mr. Wei before leaving, so he could be absent for a long time in Qingyang College, which was under strict rules.

Li Lei only had a lot of respect for Mr. Wei. He used to be a small dish in the academy, but he didn't know much about it.

But since the change in the sky that day brought about by the force of Mr. Wei, everyone in Qingyang Town, knew about Mr. Wei's existence.

People do not know what kind of person Wei Lao is, but they know that Wei Lao is the savior and hero of Qingyang Town.

Moreover, Mr. Wei also grew up in Qingyang Town and is a real Qingyang native.

This made everyone in Qingyang Town feel a sense of pride, especially the students in Qingyang College.

The era when Wei Laozhuang was in a prosperous era was too far away from them, so the students of Qingyang College did not know that there was such a big figure in their college.

But since that day, many forces have come to inquire about the information on the day the strange beasts attacked.

Those forces focused on the disciples of Qingyang Academy to inquire. Gradually, everyone knew that it was Mr. Wei who saved Qingyang Town that day.

From then on, the spiritual masters in the academy will occasionally use the old Wei to inspire the disciples in the academy to stimulate their practice.

After becoming famous all over the world, he will return to the Tao and protect his hometown.

This is the lifelong pursuit and dream of many people. This adds a bit of competition to all the originally peaceful and peaceful Qingyang Academy.

All students regard Mr. Wei as their goal. From the words and phrases in the spirit masters' classroom, they have a little understanding of Mr. Wei's glorious deeds outside. This little past deeds alone have already made everyone extremely fascinated.

"Yes, I went to see Mr. Wei."

Li Lei is Qiao Yuan’s only close friend. They grew up together. Li Lei has been with Qiao Yuan during the most difficult period when he blamed himself. They have extraordinary feelings, so Qiao Yuan did not hide it from him.

"What have you talked to Mr. Wei? Tell me quickly." When Li Lei heard that he really went to see Mr. Wei, he immediately asked impatiently.

"I didn't talk about anything. Mr. Wei just asked where I have been to over the past year, how I have experienced it, and how I have grown my cultivation."

However, Qiao Yuan's answer was obviously not satisfied with Li Lei. He looked at Qiao Yuan with disbelief.

Li Lei is actually very smart and usually acts more ostentatious, but it does not mean that he does not have his own mind.

"Don't tease me, Qiao Yuan, I don't know your little secret yet. Don't look at the day the strange beast came, I fainted on the surface, but in fact I still have a little consciousness. I know how you took Tang Zhongkai and me and I to escape from the strange beast that day before Mr. Wei arrived. How could Mr. Wei not talk to you about anything else?"

When Li Lei saw that Qiao Yuan's answer was so perfunctory, he suddenly became serious and even the title on his mouth changed, and Old Qiao became Qiao Yuan.

"Oh, right? I thought you two completely fainted without even suffocating the first attack of the strange beast."

When Qiao Yuan saw his answer, Li Lei suddenly became unhappy, but he became a little happy instead and said with a smile.

When Li Lei heard Qiao Yuan's words, he was immediately furious and punched Qiao Yuan beside him hard on the shoulder.

Qiao Yuan didn't hide either. He pretended to be in pain and touched his shoulders, as if he was being hurt by Li Lei. But Qiao Yuan's joking expression was obvious that he was teasing Li Lei, which made Li Lei even more unhappy.

"Okay, Qiao Yuan, you've been leaving like this for two years, and you haven't come back yet. Why are you so confident outside now? You treat me like this as soon as you come back, and you don't take me seriously?"

Li Lei's nose seemed to spit out of Heat, and he said angrily.

Qiao Yuan looked at Li Lei, who was a little angry and embarrassed, and decided not to tease him anymore.

"Li Lei, what do you think the election we are about to face is like."

Qiao Yuan suddenly looked into Li Lei's eyes and asked him a question seriously.

This sudden change made Li Lei stunned. What was the election like... Li Lei looked into the distance and began to ponder.

After a while, Li Lei spoke.

"The election is like a door. After opening it, you will be another wonderful new world."

"It's just that in front of the door, there is a deep pit covered with sharp knives. The way to reach the door can only be through a narrow single-plank bridge on the pit."

"The small single-plank bridge is full of dense students. It is so difficult to surpass others and reach the gate."

After saying that, Li Lei sighed deeply, shook his head, as if he was suddenly full of worries and lowered his head.

The cruelty of the election and the difficulty of practicing are actually shrouded in the hearts of every student.

Years of preparation are only for this moment. If you can cross it, you will be a carp leaping on the dragon gate.

If you cannot, the end of the path of practice in this life will be roughly this.

And they all have their own pressure and responsibilities.

Qiao Yuan looked at Li Lei's sudden heavy and depressed mood and patted him on the shoulder.

"This is the way of practicing. As you said, resources are limited, and we are all monks crammed on the single-plank bridge, terrifyingly sternly."

"But we are always lucky to practice in the academy, so we can stay where we are and return to it if we are not good. Outside the academy, the environment faced by monks is extremely harsh."

Qiao Yuan enlightened Li Lei, he was a little worried that a problem would affect Li Lei's mood.

The election is about to begin. If Li Lei's performance is affected by his mood fluctuations, it would be worth it.

"Yes, we are quite lucky. Did you and Mr. Wei talk about this?"

Qiao Yuan's slight enlightenment made Li Lei feel a little heavier. He was already open-minded and cheerful, and would not be immersed in negative emotions.

Li Lei recounted the previous topic of Mr. Wei. It seemed that he was really curious about what Qiao Yuan and Mr. Wei talked about.

"Yes, Mr. Wei and I also talked about the election. The question I asked you just now was Mr. Wei asked me first."

Qiao Yuan didn't go far this time and told Li Lei.

"How did you answer, don't keep it a secret."

When Li Lei heard that Qiao Yuan had really talked to Mr. Wei, he immediately swept away the haze just now and turned into a curious Li again.

"It's similar to your answer, but your metaphor is about a single-plank bridge on a sharp knife, and I'm about a small boat on a vast ocean."

"The sea? Our Xiding County is located in the middle and is not along the coast. Tsk tsk, Lao Qiao, you are not good at this metaphor." Li Lei joked and interrupted.

Qiao Yuan gave him a blank look after hearing this, "Do you still want to listen? If you don't want to listen, I won't talk."

Li Lei was immediately shocked when he heard this. He finally asked Qiao Yuan to talk about what he had talked to Mr. Wei, how could he only listen to half of it?

"Haha, okay, I won't interrupt you, please continue talking. You are different from us. You have been practicing outside and must have seen the world that we have never witnessed. I really want to hear how you answered Mr. Wei."

After saying that, Li Lei shut up and started to laugh seriously.

Qiao Yuan saw that Li Lei became dignified again, and he started to tell again.

"Mr. Wei and I said that we monks are like primitive people on an isolated island. There are fierce beasts on this isolated island, which makes us difficult to survive. Until one day, people invented tools and defeated the beasts. Then we invented ships, sailed into the boundless deep sea, and explored outwards."

Li Lei nodded after hearing this. It was obvious that Qiao Yuan's metaphor showed the differences in the environment in which they grew up and had very different experiences.

"The monks are sailing in the endless ocean, trying to find the continent on the other side."

"The ruthless vast sea under the stormy waves will be crushed to pieces if you are not careful. I don't know how many predecessors have swallowed and overturned the deep sea, and how many monks are buried at the bottom of the deep sea, and they are no longer heard of it. But later people still devoted themselves to the sea without hesitation, as if that was their only way to live."

"The vast sea under the vast stars is strange and strange. But the reason why the ships are destroyed and people die is the other people who are on this sea together."

"Because when you step into and devote yourself to the deep sea, you have no way out, you can only choose to sing forward and strive for others to cross. Otherwise, the person who is buried under the sea will be yourself."

"Since we have practiced the spiritual method, we have all become one of the thousands of scramblers in this world. The election is the first step."

After Qiao Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Li Lei.

Is it a fight to cross... It sounds so far away from me. Am I one of the thousands of fight to cross in the vast ocean? After listening to Qiao Yuan's metaphorical description, Li Lei felt mixed feelings.

"I first practice the original method of light boats, and the waves sank the sky and the earth and the currents. I have sunk boats and cross the sea, but I have never heard of anyone reaching the shore and surrounding area."
