Chapter 109 Disciples of the Upper Court(1/2)
Chapter 109 Disciples of the Upper Academy
On the day of departure.
More than 500 Changxi Realm disciples from Jiuyang Taoist Academy gathered outside the east gate of Linlong City.
There was a deacon at the scene reading out the team list early on.
The disciples were evenly divided into three teams, each with about 180 people.
Among them, the disciples of the four levels of Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang, etc. are distributed as evenly as possible.
It is a pity that Lin Shen, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian were not assigned together, they were in another team.
The scene was extremely noisy.
Regarding the upcoming war, a group of disciples were either excited and looking forward to it, or they were nervous and nervous, gathering together in twos and threes and talking loudly.
However, not long after, the discussion was suppressed by a low whistling sound.
A large shadow suddenly fell on the ground, almost covering the crowd.
Everyone looked up in astonishment, and were surprised to find that three behemoths had appeared in the sky at some point.
Those are three towering towers!
The tower is divided into seven floors, with six square corners, red lacquered columns, round doors and round windows, exquisite golden bells hung on the cornices, lifelike stone carvings of mythical beasts sitting on them, and a Qi-gathering copper gourd above the top of the tower.
The majestic tower slowly flew down from high in the sky, and the clouds and clouds at the bottom of the tower followed the clouds and mist, which was dazzling.
To be honest, Lin Shen had guessed many ways to get to the Longyuan Mountains, either by riding flying monsters or setting up a temporary teleportation array, but he never expected that Jiuyang Taoist Academy would directly use flying magic weapons!
That's right, this kind of tower that can fly in the air is definitely higher than a magic weapon and belongs to the ranks of real magic weapons!
While Lin Shen was greatly surprised, the disciples around him also sighed repeatedly.
Not long after, the three towers landed on the ground at the same time.
Just when the disciples were wondering how to go up, they saw the copper gourds gathered above the spires of the three towers spurting out streams of dense mist at the same time, coming around the disciples, turning into clouds and surrounding them, supporting them.
Get up and float towards the tower.
In a short time, more than 500 disciples had all climbed onto the three towers.
As soon as he landed and stood firm, Lin Shen looked around curiously.
The place where he is at this time is the first floor of the tower.
This place is laid out like an open-air martial arts arena, and it looks extremely spacious at first glance.
In the middle of the martial arts arena, more than twenty people were already standing.
Among them are obviously five people.
Two in front and three in back.
The two people standing at the front were about forty or fifty years old, with extraordinary bearing and high spirits. Judging from their attire, they must be the leaders of the Taoist temple.
The three people standing behind are all young men in their twenties.
"It's Senior Brother Xie Jingsheng!"
"There are also Senior Brother Jiang Hao and Senior Brother Mu Chuanhua!"
"So, these three senior brothers are leading the team this time!"
"We are very lucky. These three senior brothers are all very powerful, especially senior brother Xie Jingsheng, who is recognized as the top three among the top ten disciples of the Upper House!"
Listening to the discussions around him, Lin Shen was thoughtful.
After learning from Yang Zhongyi that the disciples of the Taoist Academy were leading the battle this time, the disciples of the Upper Academy made a special trip to find out about the disciples of the Lower Academy.
Therefore, he was impressed by the three people in front of him.
Standing in the middle, the tall and smiling young man is what everyone calls Xie Jingsheng. In the third year after entering the Taoist Academy, he became one of the top ten disciples in the academy. This year, he has directly reached the top three. Regardless of talent or strength, he is
It is the leading existence in the Taoist Academy!
What's more important is that this Senior Brother Xie is not from a noble family, but an out-and-out commoner!
So much so that there is a saying in the Taoist Academy that if Xie Jingsheng was born into a noble family, then the top ten disciples of the Upper Academy would probably not be Shen Zening, but him!
Standing on Xie Jingsheng's right hand was Jiang Hao, well-dressed and looking around with an air of pride and arrogance.
On the left is Mu Chuanhua, who is fat and has a warm smile on his face, which makes people think of Maitreya Buddha.
"quiet!"
One of the two leaders standing at the front suddenly spoke up.
The deep and resonant voice immediately suppressed the discussions among the disciples.
There was a sudden silence on the tower, and all the disciples fell silent and looked at the two leaders.
Upon seeing this, the vocal leader nodded with satisfaction and said in a deep voice:
"The next operation to eliminate the monsters of the Tiger Division will be coordinated and directed by three disciples of the Upper House. Unless we are surrounded by a large number of monsters, Commander Shi and I will not intervene. You can take care of yourself!"
After saying this, the two leaders left the first floor of the tower without any delay and walked down.
In the coming time, they will sit at the bottom of the tower. Unless the disciples are in danger of being annihilated, they will not interfere easily.
This war is actually a test for Jiuyang Taoist Academy to train its disciples!
After the two leaders left, Xie Jingsheng took a step forward, smiled and waved his hand.
"Junior brothers and sisters, don't be restrained, please take your seats."
There are many seats already placed in the martial arts arena.
The first person in charge is Xie Jingsheng, Jiang Hao and Mu Chuanhua.
The remaining disciples consciously sat in the left and right rows according to their rank and age.
Lin Shen has been admitted to the hospital for the shortest time, so he sits at the bottom of the prefecture-level disciples.
Because they were divided into three teams, there were only a dozen heaven-level disciples on the tower, and only about thirty earth-level disciples.
Without exception, these people are old students who have been admitted to the hospital for three or four years, and they are already very familiar with each other.
Therefore, Lin Shen was particularly conspicuous sitting inside.
Suddenly, he attracted a lot of strange looks, including curiosity, jealousy, and vague hostility.
Even the three upper court disciples on the main seat also cast their gazes.
"Is this Junior Brother Lin?" Xie Jingsheng suddenly asked with a smile.
Lin Shen cupped his hands with a calm expression and said calmly: "I've met Senior Brother Xie!"
"No need to be polite."
Xie Jingsheng smiled and waved his hands, his expression warm.
"Junior brother Lin is so talented that even his teachers praise him. We must get closer in the future."
Lin Shen was stunned for a moment: "Who is Senior Brother Xie's teacher?"
Mu Chuanhua, who was standing next to him, suddenly answered: "Junior brother Lin, don't you know? Senior brother Xie's teacher is the director who promoted you to a Xuan-level disciple!"
Lin Shen suddenly realized this and was a little surprised at the same time.
Taoist temples do not prohibit the head of the temple from accepting disciples as disciples, but such examples are always very rare.
Just because the master is a powerful Taoist high-level official, accepting Taoist disciples as disciples would inevitably lead to the unfair and hidden concern of favoritism and would easily attract criticism, so very few masters would do this.
That's why Lin Shen didn't think about it at first.
Not many people knew about this matter, at least he hadn't heard about it when he asked about it.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Mu, for clarifying my doubts!"
Chao Mu Chuanhua thanked him, and Lin Shen raised his hand to Xie Jingsheng and said:
"Please thank senior brother for your guidance in the future!"
Seeing that Lin Shen did not resist his approach, the smile on Xie Jingsheng's face became gentler.
The reason why he expressed his closeness to Lin Shen was not just to respond to the teacher's promotion of Lin Shen, but also because Lin Shen, like him, came from a commoner family.
In a place like Jiuyang Taoist Academy, where the majority of disciples are from aristocratic families, it is naturally easier for disciples who are from the same commoner background to stick together and get close to each other.
Seeing the friendly exchange between Xie Jingsheng and Lin Shen, many disciples couldn't help but look envious and jealous.
Xie Jingsheng is a disciple of the Upper Academy, and even more so, Si Yuanpei's apprentice. Being able to establish a relationship with him will undoubtedly give him an extra source of support in the Taoist Academy, with his back to the big tree for shade.
Seeing that everyone was already seated, Xie Jingsheng stopped delaying and took out a forbidden talisman and injected it with real energy to drive it.
The next second, the tower rumbled and shook, and the bottom of the tower was filled with clouds. It supported the huge body of the tower and slowly rose up. After a while, it reached an altitude of 100 feet, then broke through the clouds and flew towards the Longyuan Mountains.
There are formation restrictions around the tower. Once it is opened, even monsters in the Tongxuan Realm can't do anything about it. The disciples sit firmly inside and can advance, attack, retreat or defend. They can come and go freely.
The tower moved extremely fast, and as it soared, the strong wind roared in our ears, but the people inside were not affected by the strong wind at all.
In just a moment, the rolling and towering mountains appeared in the field of vision.
