Please call me Dadaozu

Chapter 25 The princess invites you to fight?
There was a glint of pride in Liemang's eyes, his expression was gentle, and he clasped his hands together.

"My fellow disciples, there's no need for this. We're just discussing this with each other."

As his words fell, the atmosphere among the crowd became more heated.

Lie Lin'er looked at the crowd calmly, observing everyone's reaction and looking at their excited faces.

She seemed to feel a mighty trend.

"Is this what Father meant by the power of the masses?"

tower! tower! tower!
The crisp sound of footsteps interrupted the noisy voices and also interrupted the princess's thoughts.

Looking sideways, the disciples' expressions changed drastically.

No matter the many disciples with grateful expressions or Lie Mang who was chatting, they were no exception.

Even Lie Lin'er frowned slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

A child in a gray robe, with black hair draped over his shoulders and a calm expression, walked over.

His once stout figure became well-proportioned, and beneath his long, sharp eyebrows were a pair of dark, eerie double pupils.

Even his aura was sharper and fiercer than before, with a faint chill in his tone.

"Qi Condensation Realm!"

Lie Mang murmured.

As someone who came from a different background, how could he not understand what the changes in the other person's body meant?

Zhang Yuanzhu let his hands drop, looking indifferently at the gathered crowd, ignoring them.

He walked past the crowd, came to the cushion, and sat down cross-legged.

Start recalling the exercises and summarizing and generalizing them.

Suddenly, a unique fragrance of peony came.

A clear female voice followed.

"Junior Brother Zhang, congratulations on breaking through the Qi Condensation and embarking on the path of cultivation."

Zhang Yuanzhu tilted his head slightly and looked into those calm and beautiful eyes with his double pupils half-closed.

"I'm just a simple guy. Some things can be simple and direct, without any half-heartedness."

The girl was speechless for a moment.

This was the first time she had come into contact with such a direct and straightforward person, who was completely different from the previous court officials, her father the emperor, and her mother the empress.

After a while, she smiled and said:
"Junior brother, you are indeed different from ordinary people. However, being too rigid can easily lead to failure. You must remember this."

Zhang Yuanzhu turned his head back without any response.

Since Lie Mang refused to apologize, the relationship between the two sides was that of enemies, and he had never had the habit of talking nonsense to his enemies.

For a moment, the entire Taoist temple fell into depression.

No one dared to discuss freely, and their eyes kept glancing at the man and woman sitting cross-legged in the front row.

The oppressive atmosphere did not disappear until the figure of Teacher Yan appeared on the preaching mat.

The moment Taoist Yan appeared, he turned his gaze to Zhang Yuanzhu, with shock in his turbid eyes.

Although the other party had excellent physique, he was only at the lower level, far less outstanding than Lie Lin'er, yet he actually embarked on the path of cultivation the next day.

"Could it be that his comprehension is astonishing?"

Teacher Yan was guessing in his heart.

"Zhang Yuanzhu has entered the Qi Condensation Realm."

The old Taoist spoke to confirm.

Zhang Yuanzhu placed his hands flat on his knees and lightly tapped his forehead.

"Yesterday, during my practice, I gained something unexpected and grasped a glimmer of inspiration."

"Okay, very good!"

Instructor Yan laughed loudly, looking excited. There were actually two geniuses in Daofeng.

This time, he will definitely receive a huge reward.

He stretched out his hand and waved it gently, and balls of light emerged and hovered in front of everyone.

"There are nine low-grade magical instruments. You can pick one too."

"it is good."

Zhang Yuanzhu suppressed the emotions surging in his chest.

Magical weapons are far more powerful than ordinary weapons and possess all kinds of unpredictable abilities. They must be [Level 1] items.

It is excellent whether it is controlled by the palm or used directly.

While thinking, he had already stood up and carefully observed the light balls.

There were beads, pistols, incense burners, rulers, and all sorts of strangely shaped instruments. Zhang Yuanzhu frowned slightly, unable to distinguish the good from the bad with his knowledge.

Then it depends on the shape. A knife or a bow is undoubtedly the most suitable for him.

You can fight in a small space or at a distance.

but
'No! ’

He felt somewhat helpless, and observed carefully again, then pointed to a dark ball of light based on his feeling.

"Teacher Yan, this is it."

"can."

Taoist Master Yan stretched out his hand and grabbed, and all eight light balls were put into his sleeves, leaving only the pitch-black light ball floating towards the child.

Zhang Yuanzhu grabbed the ball of light, revealing the true appearance of the magic weapon.

It was a ruler as black as ink, but it did not reveal any evil or demonic energy, but instead had a sense of moisture.

"The ruler is named Xuanshui, which suits you quite well."

"This is the Yellow Bud Pill, and there is also a jade key for selecting secret techniques."

Taoist Master Yan has a kind expression.

Before the voice fell, a dusty bag and a jade key floated in front of him.

Zhang Yuanzhu clasped his hands together and bent his body slightly.

"Thank you, Master Yan."

He straightened his waist and took the storage bag and jade key.

Then he put the Xuanshui ruler into his arms and sat down cross-legged.

The whole process was done with respect.

Instructor Yan nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at everyone, feeling the burning gazes on them.

"There are still eight spots available. You must practice diligently and don't fall too far behind."

"Next, let's start morning class."

Afterwards, Instructor Yan carefully explained the basics of cultivation, and during the period he repeatedly explained the precautions that needed to be taken when refining magical instruments.

Zhang Yuanzhu felt the three items in his arms.

After that, he focused all his attention on the morning class. When he heard about the ritual of refining the magic weapon, ripples appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Time passed minute by minute, and he listened with fascination.

"Today's morning class is over."

"Yuan Zhu stays here, and you guys leave on your own."

Instructor Yan waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.

"and many more!"

A gentle voice made many disciples who were about to leave stop.

Lie Lin'er stood up, saluted Instructor Yan first, and then looked to her side.

"Master Yan, Junior Brother Zhang has achieved a breakthrough today. I would like to spar with him to improve each other's cultivation. I hope you will allow me to do so."

Instructor Yan looked at Lie Lin'er with a frown on his face, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He knew that Zhang Yuanzhu was isolated by everyone, but he didn't expect that the situation had become so serious that this princess from the Yuan Dynasty royal family would actually take action personally.

Both of them are the achievements of Daofeng's teaching, and he doesn't want them to be harmed.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the Taoist temple was extremely solemn.

All the disciples turned their eyes to Instructor Yan, their gazes filled with anticipation.

Song Xuan, Wang Chong, and Tian Hao were especially excited.

They wanted to see the unruly beggar trampled into the dust.

The guards and maids looked at the beggar sitting cross-legged with sarcasm and ridicule.

Do you dare to accept such a direct invitation?
If you agree, you will definitely fail.

Only followers like them knew how terrifying the princess who had embarked on spiritual practice was.

"Ah!"

A low laugh echoed among the crowd.

Under all kinds of gazes, Zhang Yuanzhu slowly stood up, smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes, and looked at the girl beside him.

Five fingers lightly tapped the hilt of the knife, accompanied by the sound of the knife clanging, and he spoke word by word:
"Sparring is too boring."

"Fight to the death, do you dare?"
