Chapter 466 Farewell Ceremony
Chapter 466 Farewell Ceremony
As they continue to move forward, seeking a way home
in real world
In the secret square of the Magic City Academy, it was almost 6 o'clock and the sky was gradually getting dark.
The secret square, which was originally bustling with people, now had only a few people sitting around a fire in the center, and the rest of the place was silent.
Two golden roasted suckling pigs were floating in the air above the fire, constantly rotating on their own.
A burly man put his hand into the fire without caring about his image, tearing off piece after piece of meat from the roasted suckling pig and stuffing it into his mouth.
Every time he finished a roast suckling pig, the people watching silently on the side would quickly replenish it with another one.
Among the onlookers, a girl watched this scene and swallowed her saliva secretly, whispering to another girl next to her.
"Grandpa, the food is delicious!"
"... "
Qingqiao's mouth twitched.
Of course I know he eats it with relish!
Anyone can see it!
But don’t say it out loud, do you really think other people’s ears are just decorations?
Just as she expected, the burly man who was eating suddenly turned his fierce eyes towards her.
His greedy eyes met Zuo Yingqiu's.
Facing this beast-like gaze, Zuo Yingqiu secretly swallowed his saliva and said cautiously
"Hi~"
"Hey! The little girl has something!"
The burly man narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Zuo Yingqiu's seemingly very thin body, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Then he waved to her, motioning her to come over.
"Eh? Calling me?"
Zuo Yingqiu pointed at himself in surprise. Before coming, his family told him that he just had to keep quiet during the farewell ceremony and not do anything else.
But his grandfather had already called her, so what should she do?
"Hehehe, then I'd rather obey than be disrespectful!"
Zuo Yingqiu glanced at the golden roasted suckling pig and walked over quickly without control.
Among the people around, an old man gave Zuo Yingqiu a warning look.
However, Zuo Yingqiu didn't even look at the burly man and walked up to him with a smile on his face.
"Hello, great grandfather~"
Zuo Yingqiu forced himself to look away from the roast suckling pig and called out sweetly to the burly man.
"Okay, okay, my great-granddaughter, right?"
The burly man grinned and put his big hand on Zuo Yingqiu's shoulder.
The next moment, a bloody aura burst out from the burly man.
Zuo Yingqiu instantly felt a huge force pressing down on her, as if it was going to crush her small body.
Her arms swelled slightly and her fingertips became sharp, but she suppressed this change in an instant, gritting her teeth and enduring this enormous force.
After a moment, the huge pressure receded like the tide.
The burly man patted Zuo Yingqiu's shoulder with satisfaction and said
“Okay, okay, your physique is much better than your useless grandfather’s.
If you want to eat, go eat. Don’t suppress your desires.”
Zuo Yingqiu, who was gasping for breath, suddenly brightened up when she heard this. She quickly wiped the sweat off her face, said thank you, and went straight to the roasted suckling pig.
She had long been curious about this tribute to her great-grandfather. What secret ingredient was added to the roast suckling pig that looked just like the ones sold outside? It was so delicious that he could actually eat it.
After taking a bite, her expression froze.
She took another sip, somewhat unconvinced. After chewing it for a while and swallowing it with difficulty, she fell completely silent.
Sparkling dots begin to gather in my eyes
She hated it! She hated herself for having to be so greedy!
This is simply not food for human beings!
There is no taste of seasoning at all, it's full of pork smell!
This is the charred corpse of a pig!
Behind her, the burly man laughed silently with amusement in his eyes.
The old man in the crowd around him also shook his head helplessly, and looked at Zuo Yingqiu's slightly trembling body with some pity.
The taste of the older generation is not something that today’s kids can handle…
Then he stepped forward and said to the burly man.
"Father, is there really no other way?"
The burly man shook his head, picked up the wine bottle next to him and took a sip.
“No, and there’s no need.
I would have died long ago. If it weren't for maintaining the existence of the Bodhi Secret Realm and leaving opportunities for the children, I wouldn't have survived for so many years as a remnant soul.
You, a piece of shit, actually wasted a chance to revive and built this fragile body for my useless soul. I should have shot you against the wall!"
The burly man said this as he crushed the bottle in his hand, causing the old man to subconsciously take a step back.
The old man felt the strange looks from the people around him, coughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject.
"After this secret realm ends, the remaining power of the Bodhi tree will be transformed into a blessing for those who participated in the secret realm. I don't know how many people will break through to the fourth level..."
The people around were also very tactful and took up the topic to discuss it.
"If I were to say, it would be Li Daoyi from our academy. With his natural swordsmanship and talent, he has reached his full potential. In addition, the entire Li family's resources are placed on him. Maybe he can even break through to the fourth level without the final blessing.
By the time he reaches level 4, he might already have the strength to defeat level or even level .
He will definitely be able to secure a spot for our human race in the Star Arena!"
A middle-aged man folded his arms and nodded in agreement.
“Indeed, if it weren’t for the sudden reform of the college entrance examination this year, Li Daoyi’s reputation would have long been known throughout Daxia.
Rather than being taken away by that little guy from that little place..."
"... "
The conversation seemed to be going off track. Qing Qiao had just finished comforting the distraught Zuo Yingqiu with a drink when she heard these voices. She frowned and then looked at the middle-aged man and said lightly:
"As far as I know, Li Daoyi also came from that so-called small place."
The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this and retorted subconsciously.
"How can they be the same? Even though the Li family has declined, the resources they possess are not comparable to those of small families."
Qing Qiao said with a gentle smile on her lips.
"But Li Daoyi didn't even make it into the top three in the country~"
"Um... this is because..."
The middle-aged man was suddenly at a loss for words. In the early stages of sword cultivation, there were no means of causing large-scale damage.
At the first and second levels, you basically just chop with a sword.
Even though Li Daoyi was already able to roam freely in the sea of monsters with just a sword at that time, it was still difficult for him to get a high score.
What's more, there were a few weird guys who widened the score gap to a cliff-like level.
But putting it this way seems to be a bit of a sophistry.
He struggled for a long time but couldn't think of any reasonable rebuttal. He immediately looked at Qing Qiao with some anger and embarrassment.
The young appearance made him sneer.
"Little girl, you look like you're also a freshman this year, right?"
But before he could finish, Zuo Yingqiu, who had recovered after taking a few gulps of juice, stood up with a smug look on his face and interrupted him.
"Oh~ You are blind!
The person standing in front of you is the head teacher of Fenghen Academy, the judge who decides the fate of this class of freshmen.
He is also the general manager of the scientific research area, and the official...! ! !
