"Could it be an illusion?" Wen Qian asked. She sensed the woods carefully, but except for a few people she sent there, there was no scent of anyone else.

She and Nuo Xi are strong men in the fifth level of swordsmanship. With their cultivation, it is impossible not to notice them. Besides, there are seven deans in the entire academy now. Who dares to cause trouble?

"No, I have been hunted for many years. I am very familiar with this feeling. It cannot be an illusion." Mo Bai said firmly.

He was assassinated in various ways at the Anton Army Guards Mansion. His vigilance was much higher than that of ordinary people. His intuition for threatening things was very sharp and almost never was an illusion.

"It's just that this feeling is fleeting. The moment I discovered it, it disappeared." Mo Bai thought deeply.

Wen Qian and Nuo Xi looked ahead. If this was the case, it would be hard to tell. The other party must be a strong person with a high level of cultivation, or he must have practiced some hidden secret skill.

Several guards came back soon. The leading man clasped his fists and saluted, and said respectfully: "Report to the captain, we searched carefully and found no suspicious persons."

Wen Qian waved her hand, and the guards nodded and returned to their original posts.

Mo Bai looked at the woods. He didn't notice anything at the moment. He even thought that the moment just now was an illusion. However, after so many years of training, he knew the physical reaction most clearly.

If he is not careful, his life may be in danger.

Nuo Xi looked at Mo Bai's expression, sighed inwardly, and said, "Maybe you've been too tired recently! Go back and rest well to prepare for the next game. You don't have to worry too much about this, we are here!"

"

The next game is extremely important for Mo Bai, and she doesn't want to put too much pressure on Mo Bai now, lest it affect the game.

Mo Bai looked at Nuo Xi, who looked at him with a friendly face. Her eyes showed concern, giving people a sense of intimacy, and her words also gave people a sense of security.

He paused, and then the spiritual power in his body calmed down. He put back the black sword in his hand, and then glanced at the woods in front of him. He could feel that the woods were full of threats, and they still exist to this day.

"Maybe!" Mo Bai sighed, turned around and walked into the yard.

Just as Mo Bai stepped into the threshold, his tired eyes suddenly became determined. For so many years, his intuition has never been wrong.

The feeling just now couldn't be an illusion, and Nuoxi should know it well with his understanding of him, so what Nuoxi said was actually not to make him worry too much.

Seeing Mo Bai walk in, Nuo Xi and Wen Qian looked at each other.

"Let's go too!" Nuo Xi looked at Wen Qian and said.

"Yeah!" Wen Qian nodded and smiled, and then Nuo Xi walked into the yard together.

The sun shines on the ground, illuminating everything very brightly, but the trees provide a lot of shade because of the leaves.

When Nuo Xi and Wen Qian walked into the yard, in a dark corner of the woods, a pair of eyes were looking at them. His body was covered with dust. If you didn't look carefully, it would be hard to tell that there was someone here.

.

But the strange thing is that the auras on their bodies are vague and non-existent, as if they are integrated into the entire forest. It is difficult for ordinary people to detect their auras. Even Nuo Xi and Wen Qian did not notice it.

"Why is this guy so alert? I just glared at him and almost got caught." He was surprised.

He had just arrived here not long ago, and as soon as he saw Mo Bai, he made the other party aware of it. This alertness was beyond ordinary people, and even an assassin like him who specialized in assassination felt a little inferior to him.

"It seems that we must find an opportunity to strike again." He thought secretly in his heart.

For someone with extraordinary vigilance like Mo Bai, if you take action now, not only will you not be able to hurt him, but you will actually put yourself in danger, so you can only find a suitable opportunity.

In the darkness, his figure slowly escaped and disappeared into the invisible. No one knew when he would come and when he would leave.

...

In the courtyard, Wen Qian and Nuo Xi were walking side by side on the quiet gravel road. The breeze drifted across the lake, blowing their waterfall-like green hair.

It's very quiet here, but it's a good place for conversation.

The two of them walked slowly, and Wen Qian said, "I wonder what Nuo Xi thinks of Mo Bai's move just now?"

Nuo Xi walked slowly, without any expression on her face, and said: "Based on my understanding of him, it is unlikely that it is an illusion."

"Then what you just said..."

Wen Qian paused and seemed to understand the meaning of what Nuo Xi just said, and said: "You want Mo Bai to know that it's just his illusion, so he doesn't need to worry too much about this, so he can concentrate on the game.

So as not to be distracted.”

When Nuo Xi heard this, she nodded with a smile. That was indeed what she meant.

"I see."

Wen Qian figured it out, but she frowned, and a new question appeared in her mind, and said: "But what if he knows that it is not an illusion? You don't think it is an illusion, let alone him."

Seeing the questioning look on Wen Qian's face, Nuo Xi's lips curved gracefully. She knew Mo Bai so well, how could she not have considered this issue.

"Don't worry, he has his own sense of proportion, and I have already given him hints. I think he should be able to understand." Nuo Xi said confidently, after so many years of getting along with Mo Bai, she still has great confidence in Mo Bai.

"It's just..." Nuo Xi's pretty face suddenly became serious. As long as there were no problems on Mo Bai's side, she would have to consider the other side of the problem.

"If Mo Bai's feeling is really correct, then we have to be careful. Even we can't detect any aura, so the other party must be prepared." Nuo Xi said seriously.

Although she felt that the possibility was very low, and Mo Bai's intuition might be wrong, it was a critical moment now, so it was better not to be careless.

"Yeah!" Wen Qian nodded, crossed her arms, and thought about this matter.

"I will further strengthen my vigilance next time. If Mo Bai needs to go out, I hope we can go together. One more person means more insurance." Wen Qian said.

Nuo Xi heard Wen Qian's words and nodded: "I will ask Mo Bai, but based on my understanding of him, after today's incident, he should not refuse."

Wen Qian smiled slightly, and for some reason she suddenly felt recognized by others. You must know that even if others ask her, she may not necessarily help.

But she didn't say anything. After all, it's not a bad thing to be recognized by others.

The game time came soon. Due to Su Liufeng's sudden departure, Mo Bai had no opponent and naturally won the game. This caused a lot of controversy.

There were even rumors that Chu Liuzhang would play as Mo Bai's opponent. These words caused dissatisfaction among some people, but most people chose to watch the show neutrally.

On the fighting field in the Dou Ling Arena, Gao Yanfang stood up in embarrassment. Her clothes were covered with sword marks and looked a bit tattered, which attracted the attention of many people.

Yichen stood opposite her, holding the sword in his arms, standing upright and motionless, looking at the wounds on Gao Yanfang's body.

When fighting Gao Yanfang, he needed to take into account the forces behind her, which he couldn't mess with, so he didn't dare to strike too hard and beat Gao Yanfang directly until she lost.

"Yi Chen wins this game!" A high-pitched voice echoed through the sky.

The entire Dou Ling Arena suddenly burst into cheers, but most of them were people from Jiansuo Academy. They were ranked on the list, so they naturally felt the glory.

Yichen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then turned around and left the fighting site. He originally wanted to hold back, but Gao Yanfang's strength was not low, so it was impossible for him to be without injuries.

Li Ling'er came over, took out a cloak and put it on Gao Yanfang, and said with concern: "It's cold, don't catch a cold."

Gao Yanfang looked at the competition table of Luoying Academy with some dullness, where Mo Bai usually sat. At this time, there were only Wu Han and Shang Yu there, but Mo Bai was not there.

Wu Han felt a little embarrassed when he was looked at like this, and hurriedly moved to the side.

Seeing Gao Yanfang's look, Li Ling'er chuckled and said, "What's wrong? Mo Bai didn't come today. Could it be that you miss him?"

Hearing this, Gao Yanfang stomped her foot angrily and said, "No way! Fortunately, he didn't come over to see me. Otherwise, if he saw me like this, he would definitely laugh at me."

"It's a good thing he's not here, otherwise I wouldn't be able to let go and fight."

She looked at the spot where Mo Bai had been sitting before, feeling a little dazed. Now that she had lost the game, Mo Bai's next opponent would be Yi Chen. She didn't know who of the two would lose next.

win.

"Didn't he say that he would give Yichen a good lesson for you? Let's see if he can help you vent your anger!"

"Let's go, go back and rest first." Li Ling'er said.

Gao Yanfang nodded and left the arena accompanied by Li Ling'er.

The results of the competition quickly spread throughout the Holy Cherry Academy. Many people are looking forward to the next match. The fight between Mo Bai and Yi Chen. Both of them are extremely skilled in swordsmanship. They don't know how exciting the next match will be.

However, Mo Bai ignored their comments and just chose to continue reading in the pavilion. During this time, he read and practiced swordplay whenever he had free time. He had almost finished the second book.

After understanding most of the swordsmanship in this book, he could feel that his swordsmanship was constantly improving, and the spiritual power in his body seemed to be tempered by the swordsmanship, and his cultivation was deepening.

Although it has brought him great benefits, it still cannot significantly improve his strength in a short period of time, and he is not very sure of winning the game.
