Chapter 1010 Alliance Leader Bonus
Ten days later, Jiangbin City Railway Station.

"That damned Jiang Xiao," Xia Yan said as she yanked open the door of the train's soft sleeper compartment, plopped down on the lower bunk, and said to Jiang Xiao behind her, "You go up top. I'm sleeping with your sister."

"Alright, I'm above you, I'm above you..." Jiang Xiao chuckled as he moved closer and sat down beside her, "Still angry? It's not a big deal."

Her eyes blazed at Jiang Xiao. Even though it had been ten days since she was tricked, she still held a grudge.

That day at the dinner, she had deliberately eaten a lot of pork skin, preparing to be whipped.

But nothing happened. Foolish Xia Yan was on tenterhooks until she saw Jiang Xiao's strange smile, and then she realized she had been tricked, and she exploded on the spot...

No one knew if Xia Yan was angry because she had been tricked, or angry because she wasn't beaten...

In the past ten days, Xia Yan had launched a frantic revenge on Jiang Xiao during training. To Xia Yan's surprise, Jiang Xiao's swordsmanship was a bit too exquisite. Whether from the basic skills, or from the techniques, or even from the creativity, his great sword skills really made Xia Yan look at him differently.

Although she was playful when she was young, and didn't study swordsmanship diligently until her first year of high school, she had at least practiced for two years. Seeing Jiang Xiao's rocket-like growth rate, Xia Yan felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

There was no doubt that she could defeat Jiang Xiao in every competition.

But Xia Yan knew that was because she was comprehensively crushing Jiang Xiao in terms of personal physical qualities. If it was only about swordsmanship, Xia Yan was not sure who would win or lose.

This also made Xia Yan secretly admire Jiang Xiao's efforts. Thinking about it, he had fought in the snowy plains for more than a month, and really slept with a wooden knife every day, coupled with his extraordinary athletic talent, that was why he had such results.

Thinking about herself, alas... Xia Yan, you're not working hard enough.

Of course, although she had a sense of urgency, her nature was what it was, and she was not stingy in teaching Jiang Xiao's skills. Seeing that Jiang Xiao's basic skills were so solid, she taught Jiang Xiao the Xia family's nine sword forms.

Jiang Xiao was also quite touched by this. However, what Xia Yan didn't know was that after Jiang Xiao used skill points to forcefully raise the Xia family's sword techniques to the Silver quality, the Inner Star Map had filled in the nine sword forms, all imprinted in Jiang Xiao's mind.

Those moves and techniques were not only simply imprinted in Jiang Xiao's mind, but had even merged into his muscles.

Jiang Xiao was even thinking that after his Xia family's sword techniques were upgraded to the Gold quality, would more creative sword techniques appear in his mind.

Could this be considered a kind of mastery? When you become familiar with a skill, you will strive to innovate, comprehend, and deduce more exquisite and deeper skills?

Jiang Xiao didn't have any skill points to upgrade the Xia family's sword techniques. He only had 14 skill points left in his Inner Star Map.

Today, there were still 4 days before the Beijiang Province High School League. The school had long signed up the participating students.

And the official regulations required that they go to the site three days in advance to confirm and arrange accommodation.

So at this time, the team boarded the train to Guanlin City.

In addition to Jiang Xiao's team, there were two other teams going to Guanlin City this time.

Among them was the team led by Little Cannonball Xing Lang.

The remaining team came from Class 2 of the third year of high school. In the sub-key class, the strength of this team far exceeded that of their classmates. Even if they were placed in Class 1, they could reach the upper reaches.

Jiang Xiao didn't know the team from Class 2 of the same year, but after half a semester of getting along, he had a certain understanding of the other team in his class.

Close combat Xing Lang, not tall, a little over 1.7 meters, very strong, with a forthright personality, a big brother-level figure.

Shield warrior Zheng Jiang, 189cm tall, strong and sturdy, with an ice shield from the "Ice Cave," a special other-dimensional space in Zhongji and Liaodong provinces, but was tricked by the officials...

Logically speaking, the Beijiang Province High School League had been held in the snowy plains in previous years, and Zheng Jiang's ice shield could be said to occupy the right time and place in the snowy plains, with extremely fast condensation speed.

But what happened?

This time, the league was actually held in the armory with its beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, which almost made Zheng Jiang angry to death...

It wasn't that Zheng Jiang couldn't bring out the ice shield in the armory, but the condensation speed was too different compared to the snowy plains.

Agile warrior Zhang Hui, relatively thin, nearly 1.7 meters tall, but the damage he caused was very strong. This was a true agile warrior who knew how to play with daggers.

He was the true king of output in the team, even better than the team's magic class.

It was said that his parents were in foreign trade, and his family was very wealthy.

He wore genuine limited edition AJs, said to be worth tens of thousands of yuan. Jiang Xiao didn't know why these shoes were worth tens of thousands of yuan, but seeing how agile he was, he guessed there was some black technology in the insoles that allowed him to take off when he wore them...

The last member was the female magic class Liu Chang. When Jiang Xiao first heard this name, many faces from elementary school to university appeared in his mind, all kinds of male and female Liu Changs, filling his growing years.

This Liu Chang wore glasses, had a ponytail, had a spicy personality, and was 167cm tall.

The train runs fast, all thanks to the locomotive.

Under the leadership of Big Brother Xing Lang, the team had already formed its own fighting style. This team revealed one word from the inside out: Brute!

What was rather unexpected was that before the train started, this group of brutes came to Jiang Xiao's team's compartment.

Jiang Xiao's team had Xia Yan, who originally wanted to drive, but the journey was too far, and the school regulations were strict. Helplessly, she had to choose to take the train. Thinking about the nearly 12-hour train ride, Xia Yan felt like she was collapsing, and directly paid to upgrade to a soft sleeper compartment.

The soft sleeper compartment had four beds, enough for a team to stay.

Xing Lang's team was obviously not short of money either, and the four-person team stayed in a compartment not far away.

Xia Yan and Jiang Xiao were arguing here, and Xing Lang knocked on the door.

"What's wrong, Little Cannonball?" Xia Yan asked.

"Haha." Xing Lang smiled and pointed at Li Weiyi, who was climbing onto the upper bunk in grievance, "Now you know the disadvantages of having long legs, right?"

Li Weiyi curled up his legs with a resentful expression, without saying a word.

Han Jiangxue, who was changing her shoes on the lower bunk, heard this, got up and glanced at Li Weiyi, and smiled, "Don't climb, you sleep here."

"Okay." Li Weiyi responded, supporting himself on the bed and jumping down.

Xia Yan glared fiercely at Jiang Xiao, and said, "I'm sleeping across from her, you sleep up there."

Jiang Xiao scratched his head: "Ah, okay, then why don't you go up?"

Xia Yan: "Can't I sit for a while!?"

Jiang Xiao repeatedly begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, sit wherever you want, we can even sleep together."

"Eh? I have a bad temper..." Xia Yan pressed Jiang Xiao onto the bed.

Han Jiangxue looked at the two people playing around with helplessness, turned her head to look at Xing Lang, and said, "What's the matter?"

A thin figure flashed out, leaning on the compartment door on the left side, and said with a smile, "We've been classmates for two and a half years, and we've developed feelings even from regular sparring. We're here to say hello in advance, so we can take care of each other in the armory."

Han Jiangxue looked at Zhang Hui, who suddenly appeared, and said, "We all have to wear the official's camera equipment."

"Sister, you're overthinking it. The competition rules are different every year, and there's real-time monitoring. We don't want to cheat." Zhang Hui was playing with a small wooden stick in his hand, with no threatening intent. He was just used to it. Usually at school, he played with real daggers.

Zhang Hui said with a fake smile, "What we mean is, within the scope of the rules, if we can take care of each other, we will."

Han Jiangxue frowned slightly. She didn't like Zhang Hui.

Xing Lang patted his chest and said, "We still don't know what the competition system is. If it's allowed, it's certainly a good thing to be united."

Zhang Hui interjected from the side, "At the very least, it's good to be lenient."

Han Jiangxue quite admired Xing Lang. In fact, most people would like Xing Lang's forthright and righteous manner.

Xing Lang ignored Zhang Hui, with a heroic look, "You can rest assured, people should know their own limits, and it's impossible for us to hold you back. If the competition system requires it, and we're up against each other, you don't have to be merciful."

"Beer, drinks, mineral water, peanuts, melon seeds, eight treasure porridge~" The train attendant aunt pushed a cart and stopped in front of Xing Lang, "Little brother, step back a little."

Xing Lang: "..."
