Volume 3: Star Tower Chapter 58: Black Island Academy
If Tang Zheng and Fang Junji were already very familiar with each other, he would definitely use his claws to press his head into the monitor... If there was no monitor, he would at least press it into a basin, mud pond or something like that.
Why did Tang Zheng feel that Fang Junji's last sentence was hinting at him?
Because, he got lost and went to the place where the enfeoffment order was, and it seemed that he encountered specific things at a specific time and place?
It would be fine if he didn't take the "future Lord of the Sun Star" seriously, but the allusions to others were so weak. Tang Zheng really wanted to say, "You speak so blandly, I have no interest at all."
"You are so good at fortune-telling, could you be the 'future Lord of the Sky'?" Tang Zheng said with a smile, imitating Fang Junji's tone.
"Heavenly secrets?" Fang Junji seemed a little surprised by the word, "No. I have never performed a heavenly secret deduction."
"Then what do you know about a two-star warrior becoming the Lord of the Sun Star?"
"I just said that star power has strengths and weaknesses, and dragon veins have life..." Fang Junji shook his head, "My astrological talent will tell me, so there is no need to go through the trouble of deducing the secrets of heaven."
Tang Zheng recalled that when Fang Junji had given him directions that day, he had also purely based his analysis on star power.
Star power has strength and weakness, dragon veins have life...
Tang Zheng rubbed his temple and smiled: "So it's astrology talent, not bad."
"Unable to fight." Thirteen blurted out these four words without giving any face.
"You are wrong again." Fang Junji refuted Thirteen without giving him face. "If you stand in the upwind position, you can go down with the wind. If you stand in the water position, you can use the water to move. Once you find a good spot on the battlefield, you can control the situation and fight against a hundred strong men alone..."
Thirteen blinked, seeming not to understand.
However, Tang Zheng recalled a lot of things through the battle between Bailu Academy and Qide Academy that he had just witnessed.
Fang Junji never took any action.
However, Tang Zheng vaguely felt that the movement of the entire battlefield and the entry and exit of each person on the battlefield were all under his control.
He is like a fixed star, commanding the battle situation?
So, Kai Tak Academy thought it was outnumbered five against three, but was actually facing the pressure of five against ten or even a hundred?
This was only the second time Tang Zheng and Fang Junji met, so it was not convenient for him to ask too specific questions about his astrological talent and the secret martial arts that directly invoked the astrology. He just casually gave two likes and went to talk to Shisan.
The two hadn't seen each other for such a long time since they parted at Wu Qingshan, and Thirteen talked more and more.
As he spoke, his sentences had already upgraded to the point where he could say eight words in a row.
Tang Zheng couldn't help but feel relieved: "Not bad, not bad, really good, Fang Junji, you teach your children well..."
Fang Junji was only in his early twenties, so it was impossible for him to have a child as old as thirteen. However, when he heard Tang Zhengshun's joke, he just smiled without frowning.
Tang Zheng stayed at the Bailu Academy for dinner before saying goodbye to Shisan and the others.
After Tang Zheng left, Li Qingming raised his head and asked, "Aji, who is he? Why did you specially invite him here?"
"He...he is Thirteen's old friend." Fang Junji frowned and smiled.
Thirteen nodded vigorously, as if to say that they were not just ordinary old friends, but also very good friends.
Shangguan Su tilted her head and said, "No, I have too many old friends, and you haven't invited them all to chat and drink tea, right?"
"Susu, are you complaining about me?" Fang Junji said with a smile.
"No, I just think your behavior is a little abnormal." Shangguan Su shrugged, looked at Thirteen, and said, "Could it be that this child is really your son?"
"Poof..." Chang Qing sprayed out a mouthful of rice.
Fang Junji didn't care too much: "Abnormal? Well, it is a little abnormal..."
Shangguan Su wanted to pinch his neck and shook him: "Then tell me what's going on! Didn't you say before that when you were looking for the dragon vein of the Tianqin family, you accidentally ran into him? So, is he also looking for the dragon vein? He also wants to find the remains of the Purple Gold Emperor?"
She asked so many questions in one breath, but Fang Junji didn't say a word.
After she calmed down, Fang Junji asked, "Is it over?"
"That's it." Shangguan Su was not polite, "I know you remember everything, answer them one by one."
"Actually, there's no need to answer them one by one." Fang Junji looked at the night outside the door and said, "I went to the Tianqin family's fiefdom order to find the dragon vein, and then I met him."
"Then you stayed there to check the dragon vein?" Li Qingming asked.
"Oh, I wanted to stay there to check the dragon vein, but after checking for a while... I found that I was in the wrong place."
"What's the meaning……"
"The dragon vein is not in the enfeoffment order."
"But you came to the Fengfeng Order because you were following the dragon veins. How could you be wrong?"
"Maybe, what I'm pursuing is something similar to the aura of dragon veins...what about other things?" Fang Junji raised his head and glanced at all of them.
Li Qingming and the others understood Fang Junji's meaning in an instant and stopped using the chopsticks in their hands.
Thirteen took a few more bites of rice, then looked up and realized that they hadn't eaten yet. He was stunned and asked, "You guys aren't going to eat?"
"I'm full." Shangguan Su was a little dazed.
"You're full after just eating so little!" Thirteen muttered to himself in confusion and continued eating his own food, completely unaware of what they were talking about.
…
After a few days of warm-up battle, it was over quickly.
The official academy martial arts competition is about to begin!
That morning, when Instructor Zou received the schedule for the martial arts competition at the academy, his hands almost shook.
"How could this happen? How could this be possible? Arrange a battle between us and Hei Dao Academy in the first match? Isn't this a deliberate attempt to trick us?" Instructor Zou yelled in the room.
Tang Zheng and the others were all alarmed. They ran over and saw Instructor Zou pulling his hair desperately.
Tang Xiaotang quickly stopped him: "What are you doing, instructor?"
Instructor Zou looked as if he was ready to die as an apology, and looked at them in mourning: "Hei Dao Academy! Did you know that our first opponent in the academy martial arts competition is Hei Dao Academy?"
Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang looked at each other, bewildered.
Leng Zhan frowned slightly and asked, "Why is it the Black Island Academy?"
"Yes, how could it be Hei Dao Academy!" Instructor Zou was almost crying.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, wait a , what happened to the Black Island Academy? I don't see their names among the top academies." Tang Zheng stopped them from talking in riddles and asked about the situation first.
Jiang Wuyan walked up slowly and said, "The Black Island Academy is the only academy of the Fushan Zhou family. They are famous for their fierce fighting, but they rarely attack vital points in non-life-and-death battles. Therefore, fighting with them will cause serious injuries."
Tang Zheng said "oh".
In other words, the fighting style of this academy is relatively radical, but it does not attack vital points. In the formal battles of the academy's martial arts competition, as long as there is no danger to life, the protection mechanism of the arena will not be triggered.
"In the past, the Black Island Academy maintained the principle of 'no life or death unless it is a life-and-death battle', so in places like the Academy Martial Arts Conference, they never attacked vital points. However, in recent years, the Black Island Academy..." Leng Zhan's face was solemn, "They did it on purpose."
"Intentional?" Tang Xiaotang asked in surprise, "Could it be that they are intentionally trying to seriously injure their opponent?"
"Yes." Instructor Zou sighed several times again, "Although there is no evidence, it has been like this in recent years..."
"Heh, a good sutra has been misinterpreted." Tang Zheng interrupted them again, " But , if they want to do this, they need enough strength to support it, right? If they have such strength, why didn't their ranking in the academy martial arts conference last year be so good..."
"This is what we don't understand. They fought all the way and paid the price of being seriously injured!" said Instructor Zou.
"Harming others without benefiting yourself?" Jiang Wuyan had only heard of the former Black Island Academy and was not clear about their recent changes.
"Interesting." Tang Zheng laughed. "Maybe it will take a few years to build up a bad reputation, and then, in the subsequent battles, the opponent will be timid... This is a big chess game."
Leng Zhan shook his head: "It shouldn't be that simple. With their strength, if they play normally, they will have no problem ranking within the top 30. However, with the way they play, they will definitely be ranked outside the top 50. The gain is not worth the loss."
"There are only 4,000 places in the Star-Seeking Tower next year! No matter how notorious they are, how could others be afraid to take them seriously?" Tang Xiaotang has always been thinking about the places for Tang Zixie and others next year, and of course she will not be scared by the reputation of the Black Island Academy.
Tang Zheng spread his hands and said, "As to why this group of people suddenly became mentally abnormal, there is probably no way to verify it..." He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "That's great, let's try a new way of fighting tomorrow."
"What kind of fighting style?" Everyone looked at him.
"Does it have to have a name? Well, then I'll name it lossless attack..." Tang Zheng touched his nose.
"Speak nicely..." Leng Zhan frowned.
What they wanted to know was the content of the new style of play that Tang Zheng mentioned. Who cared what it was called!
Tang Zheng smiled and held his hand in the air: "Don't worry, don't worry. In fact, meeting the Black Island Academy is definitely a good thing!"
"How come it's good news again?" Tang Xiaotang was tired of complaining about Tang Zheng. In his mouth, everything could be turned into black and white, and he could call a horse a zebra. But most of the time, it made people feel that it made sense.
"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. The most terrifying situation is that we encounter an academy that we know nothing about. Then we really have no idea where to start. However, the characteristics of the Black Island Academy are so distinct, everyone knows their fighting style, and there is no need to learn more about it - if this is not a good thing, is it a bad thing?" Tang Zheng asked with a smile.
“Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat…” Leng Zhan thought thoughtfully.
"..." Tang Xiaotang had an expression that said, "I'm convinced by your twisted logic again." "Okay, then please continue..."
