Lin Ran stood with his hands behind his back, watching calmly.
Following the referee's words, Hu Jia and Wu Hao on the stage began to officially fight.
As if to let Lin Ran see his own strength clearly, Hu Jia launched his attack on Wu Hao as soon as he came on stage. He held a long whip in his hand and shot straight at Wu Hao. Under the amplification of fighting spirit, the long whip in his hand immediately broke through the air, making a hissing sound.
Facing Hu Jia's attack, Wu Hao did not move. However, just when he was about to block the attack, his body suddenly shook, and immediately, the figure disappeared mysteriously.
The attack missed, Hu Jia's pupils shrank slightly, and without any hesitation, he swung the whip in his hand towards the back.
"Bang!"
The long whip was swung down, and just as it was about to fall back, a blood-red heavy sword appeared out of thin air and easily blocked it. The heavy sword was quite large, and the sword body was three inches wide, which perfectly blocked Hu Jia's long whip attack.
Lin Ran shook his head when he saw this collision.
"Since she has chosen the whip as a weapon, she should make use of its flexibility and wide attack range. What is she doing now? Is she rushing over to engage in close combat with the opponent?"
"She has a bad temper, low self-awareness, and a poor grasp of the situation... Dean Hu, is this really your granddaughter?"
"this..."
Faced with Lin Ran's comments that did not give him any respect at all, Hu Qian's face looked very ugly. He usually thought that his granddaughter was talented, but her personality was a bit weird. She loved women more than men.
But after being evaluated like this by Lin Ran today, Hu Qian suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
But soon, as the battle between Hu Jia and Wu Hao continued, Hu Qian soon discovered that what Lin Ran said was completely accurate. Although the two people had almost the same strength and fighting spirit on the surface, the gap between them in battle was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Within two rounds, Wu Hao's blood sword was already on Hu Jia's jade neck.
"Obviously, this guy can hold this kind of weapon and have this level of speed. He must be very strong and fast, and he has experienced a lot of life-and-death battles."
"Facing an enemy like him, a long whip is not a good weapon. Coupled with the close combat style, defeat is certain."
Lin Ran shook his head and said calmly: "When you go back, ask your granddaughter to change her fighting style or change her weapons. If nothing else, her fighting power can be increased by at least 30%."
"How easy is that?" Hu Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head.
It is not difficult to practice something like this, but changing a person's habits is the most difficult thing.
Such changes in combat habits and fighting habits require not only strong adaptability and learning ability, but also sufficient self-control. Only in this way can it be achieved.
As Hu Jia was defeated on the field, the little vixen also revealed a look of loss, biting her red lips tightly, and cast her gaze towards the direction where Lin Ran and Hu Qian were.
"Then I have no choice. When I can change all these, I might let her come to my Shengyu Sect and try."
Lin Ran shook his head and said calmly.
Hu Qian's expression changed, and in the end he could only sigh, full of helplessness.
This is why simple-minded people don't like it!
The fight on the ring was still going on, but Lin Ran had no intention of continuing to watch. Just as Hu Qian said, this kind of fight was no different from playing house for Lin Ran now.
Under Hu Qian's leadership, Lin Ran also left the noisy square.
Soon, the two arrived at Hu Qian's office. Hu Qian respectfully brewed a cup of tea for Lin Ran. While Lin Ran was savoring the tea carefully, two figures hurried over and walked into the room.
It was Elder Qianbaier!
"It's been a long time since I last saw Sect Master Lin. In just a few days, I feel that your aura has become deeper and more powerful." Elder Bai said with emotion.
"You two are the same. In my opinion, it won't be long before you two can touch the threshold of Dou Zun."
Lin Ran smiled faintly.
Hearing this, the two elders looked at each other and both smiled bitterly.
How could the threshold of Dou Zun be so easy to reach? If it was so easy, could they have been stuck at the peak of Dou Zong for so long?
"Sect Master Lin, I am going to tease us two old guys. With our qualifications, I am afraid that we will never be able to become Dou Zun in this lifetime." Elder Qian shook his head helplessly, and then looked at Lin Ran with curiosity: "I heard from Hu that you are going to leave some inheritance in the library?"
"It's not really an inheritance, but now I am also a guest elder of the academy, and I should do something for these little guys in the academy."
Lin Ran smiled faintly and said, "I happen to have some martial arts, fighting skills, natural treasures, etc. in stock, so why not leave some of them. If I really meet one or two little guys who are destined to be with me, I will help them if I can, right?"
"After all, we all know about cultivation. If you really want to be on the path of cultivation, you really need a little opportunity, a little fate, and a little guidance, right?"
"Master Lin is so righteous!" The two elders looked at each other again and sighed in admiration.
"It was just raining, so I thought of taking an umbrella."
Lin Ran waved his hand indifferently, indicating that it was not worth mentioning, but it was this expression and this action that made Lin Ran's image infinitely elevated in the eyes of the two elders Qianbai and Hu Qian.
Look at what is magnanimity and what is pattern!
Perhaps, this is the reason why Lin Ran can become a Dou Zun powerful at such a young age!
"Please come with us."
Elder Qian sighed lightly, and his palm moved slightly. A low rumbling sound was heard, and then a dark passage appeared in front of Lin Ran.
After speaking softly to Lin Ran, the two elders stepped into the passage. Hu Qian beside them followed without hesitation. Lin Ran also did not hesitate and stepped in.
The passage was dim, with huge luminous pearls inlaid on the walls. Their faint glow made the passage a little hazy, but light was naturally nothing to strong men of their level.
Soon, they passed through the passage and appeared in front of an ancient, heavy and simple pavilion.
The book collection pavilion
looked very simple and ancient. Even the three characters of the book collection pavilion had been blurred by the erosion of time.
However, these are not the key points. What really attracted Lin Ran was the spatial energy surrounding the library.
The spatial energy overlapped and formed a seamless spatial barrier that enveloped the entire library. The seal was so tight that it was not much worse than the seal that sealed the Fallen Heart Flame in the inner courtyard.
"What an exquisite space lock! The person who set up this space lock must be at least a mid-level Dou Zun master!" Lin Ran exclaimed.
"Master Lin, you are joking. This space lock may be an iron wall for other people, but it should be useless for you."
Mr. Qian sighed and smiled bitterly.
The space lock of this library was left by a Dou Zun-level elder of the academy hundreds of years ago. If it weren't for him and the elder Bai's special method to open it, even a Dou Zong-level powerhouse who was as powerful as them would not be able to get through.
However, it can only limit Dou Zong masters.
Facing a Dou Zun-level existence like Lin Ran, this kind of space lock is obviously nothing to him. As long as Lin Ran is willing, entering this kind of space lock would be as easy as going home.
This is also the reason why the two elders had no doubts or rejections when they knew that Lin Ran wanted to leave something in the library.
After all, this place was not defensive at all for Lin Ran. If they really wanted to do something, they could just empty it out. Why waste time with them?
The two elders stretched out two pairs of dry hands from their sleeves, and then slowly formed hand seals one by one. As their hand seals formed, Lin Ran and others could clearly feel that two extremely powerful and invisible waves were coming out from their palms like waves.
The invisible waves gradually spread, and finally came into contact with the folds of space. When the two came into contact, the space in front of Lin Ran was like a mirror made of water, with ripples constantly appearing. After a while, the ripples stopped, and a door-shaped object was slowly torn open by an invisible giant hand.
"Interesting."
Lin Ran showed a look of surprise, this kind of space lock method was quite clever, and it brought him a lot of inspiration. He could use it in various bases of Shengyu Sect.
"Master Lin, please come in."
The four of them stepped into the space barrier, and the vision in front of them suddenly became much brighter than before. It was obvious that they had truly entered the library at this moment.
The two elders formed seals with their hands again, and a faint light shone down from the top of the pavilion. Along with the emergence of the faint light, balls of light suddenly emerged from the surrounding walls and hovered around the light column.
It looked like branches full of fruits.
"Master Lin, you only need to integrate the things you want to leave behind into this core, whether it is a martial arts technique or a natural treasure." Elder Qian said with a smile, "I would like to thank Master Lin on behalf of the little guys in the academy."
"Hahaha, it's my job, why should I thank you?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lin Ran waved his hand, and suddenly dozens of items appeared in his palm, including scrolls, medicinal herbs, and pills.
The dazzling array of things not only made Hu Qian open his eyes wide with shock on his face, but even the two elders were extremely surprised.
"Could this be the sixth-grade elixir, the Douling Pill? It even has the Rongling Pill?!"
"Low-level earth-grade fighting skills, low-level earth-grade skills... Liuhe Youshenchi... This is actually an intermediate earth-grade fighting skill?!... Sect Master Lin is really generous!!"
Under the shocked gazes of the three people, Lin Ran stuffed all of his martial arts techniques, fighting skills, and elixirs into the light column.
The beam of light suddenly burst out with an inexplicable energy, wrapping up everything and forming a thin film on its surface.
After being wrapped in this energy, those martial arts and fighting spirits began to dance wildly in the sky like inflated balloons, or disappeared in the blink of an eye like naughty elves.
Seeing this, Lin Ran clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Let's just do this much for now. I'll come back next time and add a little more."
Anything else to add?!
The two elders and Hu Qian looked at each other with emotion on their faces, and they became more and more curious about Lin Ran's strong background.
He even casually took out sixth-grade elixirs and earth-level fighting skills, and they were not low-level, but mid-level. With such a generous hand, the four words "rich and powerful" may not be enough to describe Lin Ran!
"Sect Master Lin is really open-minded and ambitious. I would like to thank you again on behalf of the students in the academy!"
The two elders spoke again, and Hu Qian bowed deeply to Lin Ran to show his respect.
"It's my job, it's my job. There's no need to do this. There's no need to do this."
Lin Ran smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, the things have been given, and I won't stay in the outer courtyard any longer. I still have some things to deal with in the inner courtyard, so I'll take my leave first."
"Master Lin, you have worked hard!"
"Is there anything else in the inner courtyard that needs to be dealt with by Sect Master Lin? Could it be that Su Qian has done something wrong? Sect Master Lin, don't worry, I will go and give that kid a good scolding right away!"
Thousands of elders spoke up one after another, and their enthusiasm made Lin Ran feel helpless. Their expressions were exactly the same as those of the responsible persons who accepted donations in his previous life.
Come to think of it, who wouldn't be happy when such a big piece of pie falls from the sky for no reason?
But is this really pie?
Lin Ran smiled and greeted the two elders, Qian Bai and Hu Qian, then tore through space and walked towards the inner courtyard.
Only the top five students from the external college who are the most outstanding every year in the trials can enter this library for selection. It can be said that they are almost all the pillars of Canaan College, the elite among the elites.
Although the things left by Lin Ran are of considerable value, they are nothing compared to those little guys with endless potential.
Yes, those things had actually been tampered with by Lin Ran a long time ago. Once they were taken away by someone, they would be subtly affected.
Among these items, there was one that Lin Ran had set up as a special surprise.
Just waiting for someone to open it...
Lin Ran traveled through space and in the blink of an eye he returned from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard.
Based on the positioning of the Holy Jade Order, Lin Ran easily found Xiao Ziyan.
The gentle sunlight penetrated the window and fell on Wu Ziyan.
At this moment, the little girl was curled up like a kitten, hugging a medicinal herb that exuded a strong medicinal fragrance and sleeping soundly.
There were several tooth marks on the medicinal material, and there was also a lot of saliva on it, telling that it had been brutally attacked by someone.
"Still sleeping, your herbs will be stolen and eaten by others!"
Lin Ran leaned forward slightly and suddenly spoke into Zi Yan's ear.
"Ah! My medicinal herbs, who dares to steal my medicinal herbs!"
Zi Yan, who was suddenly awakened, subconsciously hugged the medicinal herbs in her arms tightly, with a look of being on guard against thieves on her face. With sleepy eyes, she turned her head rapidly.
Because the pills made by Lin Ran had already been eaten up by the greedy girl, she was so greedy that she ran to the pharmacy and stole some medicinal herbs.
As luck would have it, she was caught red-handed by the elder who managed the pharmacy, who banned her from entering the pharmacy for a week.
Xiao Ziyan's stock is running out now, and she doesn't want to go outside to dig. If someone comes to snatch the herbs from her, she will definitely fight with that person to the death!
The dazed little Zi Yan stared with her sleepy eyes, half asleep and half awake, looking for the bad guy who might want to steal her medicinal herbs, and happened to make eye contact with Lin Ran.
When the two looked at each other, Xiao Ziyan was slightly stunned, as if she couldn't believe her eyes. She first rubbed her sleepy eyes, and then let out an exclamation full of surprise.
"Brother! You're back!"
"Zi Yan misses you so much, brother!"
Along with Zi Yan's joyful exclamation, the little fellow casually threw away the medicinal herbs that were previously very precious, and then hugged Lin Ran, blinking his big, crystal eyes at the storage ring on Lin Ran's hand.
The pitiful look with helpless eyes made Lin Ran burst out laughing.
This is not about missing him, this is purely about missing the elixirs in his ring!
