Path of the Elven Master

After several weeks of travel, Ding Zhi and the others finally arrived at the southernmost port in the Chinese region and boarded the liaison ship bound for Tianhuo City.

If you want to say what Tianhuo City is most famous for, it is of course the hot springs, but it is overcrowded here. After going around, no matter which hotel is full, it is full.

"What should we do?" Song Lina looked frustrated. "If this continues, we will have to sleep on the streets. It's annoying. I originally wanted to take a bath in a hot spring."

"Don't worry, I've already reserved a seat."

Ding Zhi was well prepared for this and had booked the room over the phone a few days ago. Speaking of which, the price was really not cheap.

However, the previous incident brought a great psychological shadow to Song Lina. In order to let her relax, Ding Zhi spared no expense to book the most luxurious hot spring hotel.

Of course, there is also the reason for the extra income, which is the previous verbal agreement with Dr. Ye Qiuye, which is the introduction fee of the annual salary.

Just as Ding Zhi thought, Dr. Ye Qiuye had no intention of defaulting on the debt and happily transferred the money to Ding Zhi's account. The total amount was 30. In other words, Dr. Ye Qiuye had an annual salary of one million when he first joined the Crimson Group. .

But Ding Zhi thinks this is completely natural. After all, he has studied for decades and even created the finished product. This means that the Crimson Group can mass-produce it with just a little research. The profit will be more than a thousand times. Ye Qiu Dr. Ye's annual salary of one million is simply a drop in the bucket.

The three of them enjoyed the hot spring bath and delicious food in the hotel, and the fatigue caused by the long journey was instantly swept away.

After resting, Xiaozhi also began to prepare for the next gym battle. Since Xia Bo was good at fire-type elves, he went to the store to buy some special burn medicine in case he needed it.

At noon, after having a meal, the three of them arrived at the Tianhuo Gym according to the map, and found that the gym had collapsed. It seemed that it had collapsed for a while and was very dilapidated.

"How could this happen?" Ding Zhi took out the map in confusion. It showed this place, that's right!

Song Lina also stretched her head over, looked at the map, then looked around, and said slightly strangely: "It is indeed here, but why has this gym collapsed?"

"Hey, two young girls!" Just when Ding Zhi and Song Lina were about to leave in regret and go to ask the locals, a middle-aged man with black hair and sunglasses appeared in front of them.

"Is something wrong?" Ding Zhi looked at the person in front of him calmly.

"Haha! Boy, are you here to challenge the Skyfire Gym?" The middle-aged man didn't care much about Ding Zhi's attitude and asked with a laugh.

"Do you know the Tianhuo Gym?" Ding Zhi looked at the middle-aged man and raised his right eyebrow.

"That's right!" The rich man nodded, "I can tell you where the gym is, but you need to answer me a question!"

Ding Zhi heard that the other party knew the location of the gym. Although he had to answer a question, he felt it didn't matter, so he nodded.

"Okay!" Seeing that Ding Zhi agreed, the middle-aged man asked the question: "What is the thing that makes your head cold and your body warm?"

Ding Zhi and Song Lina looked at each other, thinking that the middle-aged man was going to ask something, but in the end he actually asked about a brain teaser?

But Ding Zhi and Nazi are really not good at this, and they have never played brain teasers before.

Even so, it was indeed difficult for the two of them. Song Lina thought for a moment and replied calmly: "Hot spring."

"That's right! This girl answered correctly! It's a hot spring!" The middle-aged man nodded and said loudly and exaggeratedly.

Uncle Xia nodded with a smile at first, and then continued: "This place used to be a dreaming place for trainers, but since the hot springs were dug out one day, Tianhuo City has completely transformed into what he said here. Suddenly he knelt down on the road in a very exaggerated manner, looked up to the sky and roared: "Oh my God!What a sigh! "

"Uh."

Song Lina was confused by his exaggerated acting skills, but she still kindly comforted him, "Uncle, don't be so sad. In fact, the hot springs are not bad."

"Humph, a little girl like you won't understand. Alas, today's young people." Unfortunately, the middle-aged man didn't appreciate it, and instead lectured him in an old-fashioned way.

"What?" Song Lina immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Uncle, you should be from Tianhuo Island, right? Do you know Mr. Mu Xia? He is the trainer of Tianhuo Gym."

When someone asked him, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly flashed under his sunglasses: "What is the thing that is so close but cannot be seen?"

"Another puzzle?"

Song Lina was a little impatient, but she still held back her temper and thought about it. After a while, she replied: "Is it the eyelids?"

"Correct answer again! Little girl, you have a very smart mind!" The middle-aged man extended his thumb and praised.

"Now, can you tell us the location of the gym?" Ding Zhi gave Song Lina an appreciative look, then looked at the middle-aged man.

"Since I have promised, of course I will tell you!" The middle-aged man nodded, then pulled the hair on his head, took off his sunglasses, and revealed his true appearance. It turned out that this person was not a middle-aged man, but an old man. !

"Ha, Mr. Ding Zhi, Miss Song Lina, Miss Gigi Gigi, welcome to Tianhuo City. It's Mu Xia, the leader of the Tianhuo Gym. You can just ask me to ask for Uncle Xia!" The old man laughed and couldn't tell that he was already a gymnast. Six, a 70-year-old man. .

"So you are Mr. Xia Bo, you were rude just now." Ding Zhi bent down slightly and said.

"It doesn't matter. After all, it's because my disguise was so successful!" Xia Bo replied with a smile, feeling slightly smug.

"Mr. Xia Bo, I'm here to challenge the gym. Please fight me." Ding Zhi issued a challenge declaration.

"No problem, come with me..." Xia Bo nodded, took Ding Zhi and Song Lina out of the old gym and headed towards the crater.

Along the way, Ding Zhi was a little confused, why was the original gym closed? So he asked Xia Bo.

"Mr. Xia Bo, why did you move the gym to the volcano?" Ding Zhi asked while following Xia Bo.

"Just call me Xia Bo, sir. No need." Xia Bo corrected Ding Zhi's title, and without waiting for Ding Zhi's reply, he said the problem of closing the original gym, "In the past, this place was for researchers and trainers. However, after the hot springs were excavated, more and more tourists came here to play, and more and more trainers came here for fun to challenge the gym, which annoyed me so much that I closed the one at the bottom of the mountain. Gym, move the gym to the mountain.”

After Ding Zhi heard the reason, he nodded. Challenging a gym is an important matter. If he challenges just to satisfy his own play mentality, it would indeed be disrespectful to the gym trainers.

"I now have two venues, one is in the crater, where I prepare for the battle stage against powerful challenges." Xia Bo, with Ding Zhi and Song Lina, has almost reached the crater, "The other one is in my Below the hot spring hotel we are running, it is used to deal with ordinary challengers."

"Why prepare two places?" Ding Zhi asked doubtfully. Is this looking down on ordinary challengers?

Xia Bo explained to Ding Zhi: "To deal with ordinary challengers, they are not strong. The small stage allows them to better cope with the challenge. On the contrary, for the masters, the stage can only limit their performance."

Ding Zhi heard this and nodded understandingly. Indeed, weak trainers can perform better in small places, because the small space makes it easier for their own elves to hit their opponents.

On the contrary, in the duel between masters, the vast stage can display more tactics and is not limited by space.

"We're here!" Xia Bo led the two of them to the highest point, the crater!

This crater is alive, with magma underneath. There are several rock pillars standing in the huge crater. This is the battle stage of the Skyfire Gym!
