In the early morning, the mist is rising and the rising sun shines in the east.

"Master, take care of yourself all the way."

At the gate of the Yangji Sect, Yang Jiuding looked reluctant, and behind him were all the disciples of the Yangji Sect.

"Everyone, there will be a date later."

With a clasped his fists, Shi Xiaole smiled and turned around and left, and his figure quickly disappeared at the corner of the street.

"I wonder if I can see my master in the future?"

Some disciples sighed.

"It's certainly possible. The hero competition will start next year. The eldest and second brothers will participate. With the master's high talent, how could he be absent?"

"It's true, I almost forgot about this."

The atmosphere of parting was immediately broken, and the disciples began to chatter, and their words were full of expectations.

"Are you a hero contest?"

Yang Yi's eyes were full of fiery.

He admitted that he was not as good as Shi Xiaole, but it did not mean that he would be content with the status quo. Half a year left before the competition, and working hard may not be able to narrow the gap with Shi Xiaole.

"From today, all members will go into seclusion. On the day of seeing you next year, I hope you can give your master a surprise."

Hearing the words of his disciples, Yang Jiuding was also excited and said loudly.

"yes."

Everyone shouted in unison.

...

Walking out of the city, Shi Xiaole whistled. Soon, a green horse carved with jade came galloping in awe of the high horse's hooves, and came to Shi Xiaole's eyes in a flash.

Driven by the green wind, Shi Xiaole ran away.

"It's indeed a peerless horse."

In the mist, three beautiful figures walked out from the side. The woman talking was wearing a golden gauze dress and a jade hairpin on her head. Her beauty was amazing.

"Sister, with your skills, it's not difficult to defeat that kid, why don't you take action?"

Yuhuaniang withdrew her gaze and asked indignantly.

The more she looked at Qingfeng, the more she liked it. She missed such a strange horse, and it would be too difficult to see it in the future.

"A horse is a good horse, but it also depends on whether you have a life or not. If you want something that does not belong to you, you will only harm others and yourself in the end."

The golden flower girl shook her head slightly, her tone was calm.

No one knew that she was good at observing people. She had just carefully observed Shi Xiaole's face, but she couldn't even see any clues. There were only two explanations.

Either the other party has a low fate and does not show its characteristics, or the other party's fate has exceeded her understanding, making it difficult for her to see through.

A person who destroys the Buyi Gang by his own strength alone will be a person with a low fate? She doesn't believe that Jin Huaniang will kill him.

So she didn't take action.

Fate has always been something illusory, but it is thought of in detail.

Any choice in front of you will have a profound impact on the future. Jinhuaniang's intuition told her not to offend that young man.

"My elder sister has always been independent. What we listen to is the third sister. I heard that you have agreed to Pan Yue, 'Yu Langjun'. As long as he can enter the top 20 in the hero competition next year, will you accept him?"

Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, Yinhua's mother took the initiative to change the topic.

Sure enough, hearing this, two rays of red clouds appeared on Yuhuaniang's beautiful face, and she snorted: "It's one thing to agree, but it's another thing to do it."

Someone has done statistics. Anyone who can enter the top 20 in previous hero competitions will basically become a giant in the Qingxuezhou world in the future.

So if Pan Yue can pass this threshold, Yuhua Niang doesn't mind getting along with her.

Of course, it will be very difficult.

Especially next year, the number of geniuses, elites and fierce competition will be the most in nearly a hundred years. Now the entire Qingxuezhou world is looking forward to it, and many sects have created momentum for their disciples in advance, waiting for the competition in half a year.

It can be said that those who can be on the list next year have a value of comparable to the top 20 in the past, while those who enter the top 20 have a value of comparable to the top 10, or even the top five.

"Yingxia Mountain is located in the snowy area. It takes more than half a year to walk slowly from the Yunfeng area. If you set off now, you can visit the scenic spots and historical sites all the way."

Jinhuaniang also laughed.

Competing for heroes and geniuses to compete for power has always been a grand event in the entire world. At this time, major rivers and lakes will be unprecedentedly lively. Like them, countless people are rushing half a year in advance.

Of course, if there are one million people rushing to the road, it would be great if there are 900,000 people who can successfully reach Yingxia Mountain. The battle and fighting halfway can always consume a lot of people. Some guys just look at the crowds and take advantage of the troubled waters.

"I don't know, who can you rank?"

Before leaving, Jin Huaniang couldn't help looking back and glanced at the official.

...

The same idea as Sanhua Lady, Shi Xiaole also planned to set off for the snowy land, but not to visit famous places, but to walk through dangerous mountains and rivers.

Anyway, with the green wind here, walking through dangerous mountains and rivers is like walking on flat ground. It can also avoid disasters and allow yourself to concentrate on your cultivation. It can be said that you will kill you in one fell swoop.

"My strength is not very outstanding now. I still have half a year to use it."

Although he won many battles, Shi Xiaole was not proud at all.

Because he had heard a lot of news that many of the masters of the previous Xiaoying Heroes were defeated by rising stars. It was not that they were powerless, but that the challengers were stronger and younger.

Now many elders and even the heads of famous sects have a sense of urgency and ordered many proud disciples to return to the sect and practice in seclusion.

This also led to fewer and fewer heroes walking around in the Qingxuezhou world. Everyone is working hard and studying martial arts, waiting for the hero competition in half a year to become famous all over the world!

Shi Xiaole lived for a lifetime. He seemed to be peaceful on the outside, but he had a competing spirit that was not inferior to anyone. He wanted to see how big the gap was between him and the top talented men in Qingshui Province.

Sleeping in the open air, sleeping in the sky and the moon.

Since this day, Shi Xiaole drove the green wind into the dense forests of the mountains and forests. When he was hungry, he would pick fruits or eat some wild game. He deliberately avoided other lonely tourists when he was on the way, walked deeper and deeper in the mountains, and put on the ground to bed at night.

And he spent all the rest of his time practicing.

Internal skills, sword skills, sword skills, even palm skills, claw skills... He practiced all the martial arts he could practice over and over again, without knowing whether it was boring or exhausted.

Although this kind of cultivation method is comprehensive, it will inevitably become mediocre and lead to no strengths. However, Shi Xiaole has his own ideas.

The way of martial arts is to know one thing and all kinds of knowledge.

He felt that practicing swordsmanship or swordsmanship alone was not conducive to learning from others' strengths and broadening his horizons and ideas. It was better to lay a solid foundation first and settle down yourself, and then practice one more way in the later stage and accumulate strength.

Days pass by day.

Shi Xiaole's figure is becoming more and more like an adult, and a lot of stubble appears on his face. His cultivation is progressing very slowly, but his martial arts level is constantly improving through repeated sorting, reflection and innovation.

Bang bang bang bang.

In the night sky, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks bloomed everywhere.

It's New Year's Eve again.

In the city outside the mountains, there were traffic, lanterns hanging high, and there were noisy laughter everywhere. The disciples of major families and sects also had a rare day of relaxation and reunion with their fellow teachers and peers.

In the Golden Phoenix Tower, wearing a red dress, the charming Su Yanru was even more seen. Looking at the fireworks outside the window, deep longing flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Owner, the dinner is ready and everyone is here."

Mengqi stood outside Ru Garden and said respectfully.

"How are you?"

When Su Yanru sighed secretly, she withdrew her gaze and turned to go downstairs. She had a charming smile on her face and walked into the hall of the Golden Phoenix Tower with Mengqi to have dinner with the senior executives.

Inside the mountains, there is darkness and loneliness.

Shi Xiaole, who was sitting cross-legged under the tree, retracted his gaze from looking up at the sky, and the Qingfeng beside him screamed non-stop.

"I'm going to continue practicing."

Touching Qingfeng's head, Shi Xiaole closed his eyes with a smile, and soon entered the clear and clear state.

If there are Buddhist monks here, they will be extremely surprised, because this is clearly the state of selflessness that countless martial arts people have always dreamed of.

When you are in this state, people's thoughts and inspirations will be faster and more quickly than usual, and it will be easier to understand the wonderful skills that cannot be understood in normal states.

However, if you want to reach this state, you must be consistent in your mind and be extremely focused, and you must not be affected by the secular world.

This is why, often only those who have wisdom and possess great wisdom can enter this state after sitting and practicing meditation for many days.

But those Buddhist monks have seen all the worldly love and experienced the beauty of the world, and have already had a clear mind. Those who touched this state at the age of seventeen are simply rare in the world.

Half a month after New Year's Eve, Shi Xiaole changed his normal state and no longer practiced martial arts such as light skills, palm techniques or claw techniques. Instead, he focused on sword techniques and sword techniques.

A few days later, he even gave up his sword technique and only practiced sword technique every day.

Da da da da da.

The green wind carried Shi Xiaole, running wherever it was remote and wherever the terrain was dangerous, as if this was the only way to show its ability. After a while, one man and one horse accidentally came outside a hidden small valley.

A series of green winds blew out from the valley.
