Two Realms High Martial Arts: Gathering the Heavens to Become a Great Luo Immortal

Chapter 193 First-Grade Golden Elixir, Withered Wood Poison Dragon

Three days later

Inside Lisa's attic, filled with warm fragrance and the scent of books.

Afternoon sunlight streamed through the window, casting warm dappled patterns on the carpet.

On the soft, wide sofa,

Li Xijun sat relaxed, with several light screens floating in front of her.

The screen displays images and data of potential athletes from around the world.

One after another, powerful figures with impressive battle records flashed by.

Although the number of national team players from each country is still uncertain at this time.

However, we should still pay attention to the talents from many popular countries such as the United States and Britain.

Moreover, it's said that a direct disciple of the Western Alliance's Thunder Saint will also be participating in this year's competition.

For the sake of knowing oneself and one's enemy, Li Xijun still needed to put in some effort.

Su Nianyi sat close to him, leaning slightly to the side, almost resting on Li Xijun's shoulder. A few strands of her beautiful long purple hair slipped unintentionally into Li Xijun's arm.

While listening to Lisa quietly analyzing a contestant's abilities and characteristics...

She occasionally pointed to a plate of crystal-clear, radiant grapes on the coffee table in front of her, and slowly savored them.

But more often than not, he would naturally and precisely place the peeled, even carefully seeded, fruit to Li Xijun's lips.

Li Xijun was already used to it. Her eyes remained focused on browsing the documents, but she naturally opened her mouth slightly and ate the snack that was offered to her.

A tacit understanding and intimacy flowed between the two, the atmosphere peaceful and warm.

Teacher Lisa sat on the other side, completely unconcerned about Su Nianyi's public displays of affection, and generously let her do as she pleased.

Meanwhile, he was thinking to himself that the supplementary matches were finished today, and the National Government training would begin soon, so he would have to eat his fill tonight.

As time slowly passed, "Bang!"

The attic door was suddenly pushed open with great force, slamming against the wall with a loud thud that instantly shattered the tranquility of the room.

A fiery red figure rushed in like a whirlwind!

"hope-jun! Nian-yi, I did it!"

The person arrived before the voice.

Jiang Qiyue rushed in, her pretty face flushed and her eyes shining brightly.

She was dressed in a practical outfit that allowed her to move around easily, and her long, straight, and powerful legs covered the living room in just a few steps.

She completely ignored the floating light screen and Su Nianyi with slightly raised eyebrows beside her. With a clear goal in mind and full of vigor, she cheered and pounced directly on Li Xijun on the sofa!

"Hehehe! I got the backup spot!"

Like a large feline that has caught its prey, she wrapped her strong arms around Li Xijun's neck.

She practically fell into his arms, excitedly announcing the good news loudly in his ear, her whole body radiating an irrepressible sense of pride.

This sudden "attack" forced Li Xijun to reach out and catch her to prevent them from both falling off the sofa.

A hint of helplessness appeared on his face, but he was mostly happy for her. He patted her back with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, get up now."

Su Nianyi watched the two people who were almost piled on top of each other.

Especially after Jiang Qiyue's unabashedly affectionate gestures, her good mood from feeding Jiang Qiyue vanished instantly. A clear displeasure flashed in her amethyst eyes, and she gave a soft, cold snort.

He put the grapes he had just peeled back into the dish.

Although Su Nianyi had already guessed this outcome after learning that Jiang Qiyue had entered the realm of martial arts mastery yesterday.

But seeing that Jiang Qiyue actually secured a spot and became one of the team members for this Global National Team Competition...

For the next few months, he would be in the way, interfering with his plans for time alone with Li Xijun.

She was still very unhappy.

Ms. Lisa, watching this lively scene, couldn't help but chuckle. She put down her teacup and said softly:

"Alright, Qiyue, get off Xijun. Tell me slowly, what exactly happened? Is the selection competition over?"

Jiang Qiyue then happily climbed out of Li Xijun's arms, but still sat down close to him.

The lively young girl tilted her chin slightly, her face radiating undisguised pride and excitement.

She began to gesticulate wildly as she recounted how she had displayed incredible prowess in the match, ultimately securing the victory and earning that precious spot as a reserve member for the National University Tournament.

"Hmm, it seems the remaining two spots have been taken by you and Zhou Mingji, the top third-year student from the Guanghua Palace of Aurora University in the Nine Schools Alliance."

Lisa seemed thoughtful after hearing this.

"The Zhou family of Shanghai is indeed renowned for cultivating their own family members, and their family secret techniques are also outstanding, so it's not surprising that they were able to obtain this spot."

"Yeah, Zhou Jiming is indeed quite troublesome. Luckily, I wasn't in the same half of the draw as him, otherwise this second spot might not have been mine."

Jiang Qiyue spoke of the incident with some lingering fear, feeling that the lottery for the backup spot was indeed a matter of luck.

Lisa smiled at this, then turned to Li Xijun and began to explain:

"The Zhou family of Shanghai is a top-tier martial arts family that rose to prominence a few years ago with the help of the Wood Saint. Their cultivation method is based on the 'Dead Wood Poison Dragon Scripture' that the Wood Saint helped modify and gave to them. Their methods are all biased towards poison and Yin Sha, which can be considered a supplement to the National Army team."

"Okay, I understand."

Li Xijun nodded and noted down the last member.

But the faces of Zhou Yibai and his brother couldn't help but appear in his mind.

Speaking of which, these two are actually from a branch of the Zhou family in Shanghai.

If she hadn't gone astray back then, she might have gone to university in Shanghai, and then... she might be training and working under this young master of the Zhou family's main branch, right?

Li Xijun sighed inwardly and finally asked:

"The ten members of the Nationalist team are all here. Who are the two instructors leading the team this time? Lisa, are you coming along too?"

These words made Jiang Qiyue's eyes light up immediately.

If Lisa were to actually follow the National Government on its global training program and participate in the subsequent global martial arts competition,

During these months,

Wouldn't she be able to work together again, just like now, so that her best friend wouldn't even get to drink soup!

Unfortunately, under Su Nianyi's somewhat nervous gaze, the female principal shook her head.

"I won't go this time."

Lisa's words immediately disappointed Jiang Qiyue.

Su Nianyi breathed a sigh of relief without making a sound and moved even closer to Li Xijun.

"However, apart from Professor Xu from the Weiming Linglang Pavilion next door, who is at the Great Vajra Realm, the other teacher leading this team is someone you know."

At this point, Lisa couldn't help but curl up her lips as she looked at Jiang Qiyue, who was becoming increasingly arrogant, sneaking into Li Xijun's room every night.

"With her there, you won't have to worry about being mistreated outside."

This piqued the curiosity of the three people present, but Lisa remained silent for a while, until...

The next day,

The capital city, the Great Xia National Stadium.

The magnificent building, which can accommodate nearly 100,000 people, was temporarily cleared today. Ordinary tourists and citizens were kept out, and only those with special passes were allowed to enter.

The enormous oval stadium appeared exceptionally solemn and quiet under the clear sky, a stark contrast to its usual hustle and bustle.

On the open lawn on one side of the venue, several streamlined, dark black large aircraft were quietly parked, their fuselages gleaming with a cold metallic luster, and the emblem of "Great Xia State" was engraved on their surfaces.

In the center of the stadium, a huge electronic screen continuously displays the time.

Below, on the field, seven or eight young figures were already standing in the empty space.

Several exceptional individuals, selected through rigorous processes from the top universities, martial arts families, and military systems of the Great Xia Dynasty,

They sized each other up, assessing each other, with an undercurrent of tension and competition between them.

However, Ju Mengya, representing Qingquan Chunhui Palace, looked around again and, not seeing Li Xijun, couldn't help but look at Su Nianyi and the other person.

"Hasn't the junior arrived yet?"

"This is a rather important occasion, and it would be somewhat inappropriate to leave a bad impression on the two teachers leading the team."

Su Nianyi, dressed in purple, was also somewhat puzzled.

"I told you last night I'd go to bed early, maybe something's wrong with hope-jun?"

In response, Jiang Qiyue, dressed in a fiery red outfit and sporting a bright smile that drew attention, said quietly:

"That's probably because my aunt gave Xijun an extra night of practice..."

Hearing this, Su Nianyi was a little confused as to why Lisa was still training Li Xijun at this time.

But Senior Tachibana Mengya, who was standing to the side, pushed up her decorative gold-rimmed glasses and showed a subtle expression, choosing to remain silent.

Time passed by,

The agreed meeting time is approaching.

Just when everyone thought that the participants had basically arrived and the teachers leading the teams would soon appear, the light dimmed slightly at the entrance of the huge passageway on one side of the stadium, and a figure walked in unhurriedly.

Dressed in all black, he walked confidently into the National Stadium, instantly attracting a lot of attention.

"The one from Qingquan Chunhui Palace—it's finally here!"

"Li Xijun!"

"That legendary figure of a martial saint—"

Several gazes instantly fell upon them from the two military personnel and from the Weiming Linlang Pavilion.

Li Xijun, who casually rubbed his lower back, also sized up the people in front of him.

Aside from Ye Ningxue, whose aura was at the early stage of the Art of Contemplation,

These are currently the most talented martial artists in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and almost all of them are at the mid-stage of the Intent Realm.

Among them, Jiang Tu, the military member with the most distinctly rugged style, is the most powerful.

His spirit and energy were as strong as steel and iron; he was truly extraordinary.

"I just don't know what kind of external killing techniques they've all mastered."

With a hint of anticipation in her eyes, Li Xijun withdrew her gaze and walked steadily to the side of the three people in Qingquan Chunhui Palace.

"Sorry, it's a little late."

Jiang Qiyue hummed in agreement, fully aware of Li Xijun's actions of supporting her waist.

Ju Mengya stepped closer and said, "It's alright, it's perfect timing. The teachers haven't arrived yet!"

Su Nianyi then stepped forward in front of the group of Nationalist government members, took Li Xijun's arm, and while asserting her ownership, said:

"Anyway, your advisor arrived later than you. I just don't know who the other advisor is besides Professor Xu..."

1,

She hadn't finished speaking.

However, two figures emerged from the opposite direction simultaneously. Neither of them were talkative, and after exchanging a few words,

The extremely tall, nine-headed female martial artist in purple martial arts attire walked up to the ten prodigies of the National Team.

"This is our first time meeting. Let me introduce myself. I am Su Nianying, a Golden Core Realm martial artist who recently formed a first-grade Golden Core."

As she spoke, the long-legged, mature woman turned her gaze toward Li Xijun and the others.

They are also your mentors for this Nationalist government training program!
