Douluo blood duke

Chapter 71 Genius Training Program, Third Round: All Pass
"Brother Heng, wake up."

In the haze, Zhang Heng vaguely heard a familiar voice coming into his ears, he slowly opened his eyes, the bright moon was in the sky, and the outline of the person in front of him gradually became clear.

With Yun Xue's help, Zhang Heng sat up, rubbed his eye sockets, and asked puzzledly: "Xue'er, you're coming up too, why did you choose the third floor?"

Yun Xue half supported him and shook her head.

"No, Brother Heng, I chose the second floor."

"Then how do you do that?"

Zhang Heng looked at her suspiciously.

Yun Xue pointed behind him and said, "Brother Heng, look."

Looking back, Zhang Heng saw two white tiger sculptures, one arrogant and the other ferocious still standing there, but the black spire that stood between them was nowhere to be seen.

"This tower, such a big tower, where is it?"

Looking at Zhang Heng who cast a puzzled look, Yun Xue shook her head incomprehension.

"I don't know, we were suddenly pulled out of that illusion, and then the old man watching the tower came in and told us that the assessment was over, you were brought down by him from the third floor, and after you came out, then The tower disappeared."

"Ah, that's it."

Zhang Heng just woke up, but his mind was still a little unconscious.

"Boss."

"Master."

A few chaotic calls sounded from his ears. Zhang Heng turned his head and saw a group of people surrounding him. He looked around.

Lin Kai, Yan Fei, Fan Ming, Mi Li and Mina are all there.

"Have you all taken the test?"

When they approached, Zhang Heng hurriedly asked, he didn't want anyone to be left behind.

Fortunately, after Zhang Heng's questioning, everyone said that they participated in the assessment, and they did not quit early. They were all woken up by the old man watching the tower.

Hearing their chattering answers, Zhang Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

While they were discussing, beside them, three old men in black Star Luo Empire Academy uniform surrounded Zhu Li, and the man standing in the middle asked, "Zhu Li, what's going on, you?"

Zhu Li raised his hand, interrupted him, and then said calmly: "I'm going to die, the assessment can't go on."

"what!"

An old man with a short beard standing on the right widened his eyes as if he had heard something big, and asked in a hesitant voice: "You, how is it possible, you are not"

"Okay, don't talk so much, take those students away, and let me enjoy the last time alone on the top of this mountain."

Zhu Li shook his head, he didn't want to, and he didn't want to explain, it was unnecessary.

Hearing what he said, the three people in front of him were silent. After a while, the old man on the left asked, "What about the assessment? Is there a final result?"

He looked at Zhu Li, quietly waiting for an answer.

Zhu Li didn't answer him immediately.

Zhang Heng, who was the first to go in, logically did not pass the assessment, because the assessment condition for the third floor is to defeat all the remnants inside, but he has already defeated four, so who knows if he can pass the rest? , which is an unknown factor.

As for the first floor and the second floor, because the entry time is different, he also needs to judge whether they pass through by the remaining soul energy after they are killed in the Corridor of Despair, but now
He glanced at the dozen or so students behind the three old men, sighed and said, "All passed."

"All passed, Zhu Li, don't be joking, there are thirteen students behind here, if they all pass, then it's not a mess."

The short-bearded old man on the right stepped forward and said hastily, blowing his beard and staring.

"Yeah, Zhu Li, this matter is very important. You can't talk nonsense. In the past, it was a good result to have three passed the assessment a year. This year, thirteen, that's a bit."

The old man in the middle also said softly with a wrinkled white beard.

But Zhu Li's expression didn't change, he said: "The students in this class are very different, I can't comment on them, but I can guarantee that if you have to choose only three of them, you will definitely regret it. "

The three old men looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, they said, "Well, then, Zhu Li, do you want to ask His Majesty for instructions, maybe His Majesty can find a way to protect you?"

"Hahaha."

Zhu Li laughed a few times and said, "No need, I, Zhu Li, have lived long enough, forget it."

He shook his head, smiled, turned around, and walked towards the original direction of the pointed pagoda.

The three old men looked at his back, and after someone sighed, the three turned around and walked towards the students who didn't know what happened, and then the person walking in the middle announced that the assessment was over and all passed. .

After he finished his announcement, there was a half-minute silence on the top of the mountain, which was then broken by a happy shout, and that shout was like a spark lighting a firewood, making the entire mountain top hot.

"I'm coming up, I'm finally coming up."

While the crowd was cheering and shouting, a voice with the same high emotion but weak and deep voice squeezed out from the sound wave.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a figure standing at the entrance of the white stone steps, looking at them in astonishment.

The scene fell silent again, but in less than half a moment, more enthusiastic cheers erupted from the crowd.

It is different from the excitement on the top of the mountain far away in the suburbs.

In the imperial capital of the Star Luo Empire, the evening market was over, the crowd dispersed, and the entire city fell into a deep sleep.

And in the center of the city, in the imperial palace that occupies the best location in the city.

In a large hall, the lights are brightly lit, just like daytime.

In the hall, there are two figures playing chess.

One was wearing a black robe with a civet mark tattooed on his chest. His face was resolute and majestic. He was the only Duke of the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Ming.

Opposite him, the man was a bit bloated, wearing a loose white brocade nightgown, with disheveled hair and a smile on his face. He looked like an ordinary, amiable rich man, and he was the current Emperor of the Star Luo Empire. , Dai Jue.

Dai Jue placed the sunspot in his hand on an inconspicuous place on the chessboard, and then looked up at Zhu Ming, who was frowning and meditating in front of him, smiled and did not speak.

Zhu Ming's eyes scanned back and forth on the chessboard, holding the white piece in his hand, and stopped in the air. After about 5 minutes, he sighed, put the piece back into the chess box, then stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you are superb at chess. The minister lost."

"Hahaha, you bastard."

Dai Jue patted the table and laughed a few times, pointed at Zhu Ming and shook his head, saying, "You've been like this since you were a child, that's all right, don't stay here, the loser takes the chess, hurry up."

"Yes."

Zhu Ming replied softly, then sat back to his original position, lowered his head and silently cleaned up the chessboard.

Dai Jue squinted his eyes, a few strands of drowsiness leaked from the creases of his eyes, he yawned softly, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, rinsed his mouth, poured the tea Spit into the iron bucket beside.

Hearing the sound of yawning, Zhu Ming looked up and said, "Your Majesty is going to be sleepy, so I will take my leave first."

"Sleepy, who is sleepy, are you sleepy, I am not sleepy, I will wait for my nephew to bring me news."

Dai Jue waved his hand, moved his butt, and said while lying down.

Zhu Ming looked at him, breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and continued to pack the chess pieces in front of him.

When he put the last white chess piece into the chess box and closed the box, the door of the hall was pushed open.

The moment he heard the sound, Zhu Ming suddenly raised his head and looked towards the door. Dai Jue, who had already half-closed his eyes and hummed softly, also opened his eyes suddenly, looking at the hunched body who came in from the door. A eunuch in a dark red robe.

After the eunuch closed the door, he walked in front of Dai Zhu and the two of them in small steps. When he bent his knees and was about to kneel down to salute, Dai Jue's dull voice came from the front.

"Okay, don't kneel, hurry up and say."

The eunuch trembled, straightened his knees, then bowed slightly and said.

"Your Majesty, news has come from outside the palace that the third round of assessment is over, but..."

"But what."

"Your Majesty, there are some unexpected circumstances in this year's assessment. The assessment did not end normally. There was news from outside the palace that the assessment ended because the third round of assessment officer, Mr. Zhu Li, said that he did not have much time, so he ended it early. Examination, and let a total of thirteen students pass this examination, and among them is Mr. Zhang Heng who you pay special attention to."

"Zhu Li? What are you talking about? He said he was going to die!"

Dai Jue looked at the eunuch with his head bowed with surprise.

"Yes."

The eunuch nodded slightly, confirming.

Dai Jue frowned, his face darkened, and he asked again: "During the assessment, is there anything unusual?"

The eunuch lowered his head, thought for a moment, then shook his head and responded, "Nothing unusual."

Dai Jue was silent, he was silent for a long time, waved his hand and said: "You go down first."

"Yes."

After the eunuch left, Dai Jue turned to look at Zhu Ming, who was also frowning at the moment.

"Zhu Ming, tell me, did this Evergrande nephew get that thing?"

Hearing Dai Jue's question, Zhu Ming recovered and looked at him, then shook his head.

"No?"

"No, I don't know."

"Not sure?"

Dai Jue looked at Zhu Ming, and listened to him continue to say: "Accordingly, if Brother Zhang didn't lie to us, he probably didn't get it. Brother Zhang is an upright person. He said that if that thing was taken out, it would be Earth-shattering, ghosts and gods cry together."

"However, the current situation seems to be a little different. The Zhang family can't treat it with common sense, so I shouldn't jump to conclusions."

Dai Jue nodded while listening, and after a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Forget it, we've been guessing here and there, but we can't guess the result, so how about it, tomorrow, you go to see him and take him Enter the palace, we will ask him face to face."

"Yes."

"Well, do you have anything else to do?"

Dai Jue, who was about to rest, raised his head, and seeing Zhu Ming still standing there, he asked suspiciously.

Zhu Ming showed hesitation, and after a few seconds, he cupped his hands and asked, "Your Majesty, forgive me for your boldness. I would like to ask what would happen if Zhang Heng didn't get the thing."

Dai Jue stared at him, his eyes fixed, and a ferocious aura emanated from his body. Zhu Ming was startled, but he pursed his lips, lowered his head, and continued to stand there.

Seeing him like this, Dai Jue was silent for a while and said: "You know, on the day I came to the throne, my father was also the last emperor of the Star Luo Empire. My descendants continue to pass it on, you know what that sentence is."

Zhu Ming quickly shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Dai Jue hesitated for a moment, and then said: "He said that the Star Luo Empire can live without the Dai family, but it absolutely cannot live without the Zhang family."

"what!"

Zhu Ming's eyes widened, he raised his head and took a few steps back quickly, with a look of panic on his face.

"This"

Dai Jue looked at him, and continued calmly: "I am also very puzzled, but I am also very honest, so I asked Brother Zhang, and then he showed me the thing."

"And at that glance, I understood why our Dai family always has such a sentence, so..."

"If Zhang Heng gets that thing, when he becomes an adult, there will be nothing less that should be returned to him, but if he doesn't get it, then..."

"Let him be duke."

The waves in Zhu Ming's heart could not be calmed down. After bowing his head for a long time, he bowed and saluted and said, "Yes, that minister retreated first."

"Well, remember about tomorrow."

"Yes"
