Ren Qing’s face alternated between going purple with rage and paling, looking worse than he did before.
Ling Hong chuckled lightly and continued to say while looking at him, “Ren Qing, listen to my advice, don’t be too merciless in whatever you do! So what if you are in Team one now? Can you guarantee that you will always stay up there, don’t forget what was your previous position? Even if you have forgotten all of us remember it very clearly?”
“You...” His expression was becoming increasingly upset, as his gaze towards the four of them became even more venomous. “Sure, I’ll wait and see, how all of you and this bug is going to safeguard these array flags?”
With that said, he sneered coldly and left with the four others on their swords.
Buggy was still staring at the flags on the table with a look of disbelief and subconsciously asked, “How... How did we get these?”
“I would like to know too.” Lonemoon also turned his head and looked over, they’d just entered and did not even move locations, the more they did not specially search for the array flags.
Yet Chef said with a neutral expression. “Saw them in the stomachs when I was cutting and cleaning up the fish earlier.”
Lonemoon: “...”
This means that the array flags of this competition were actually hidden in the bodies of these demons? Indeed, the foodie saves the world!
“With these array flags, we will be able to pass the first round of the competition.” Buggy was surprised, of course, that’s as long as they don’t get snatched away in these 10 days. He quickly gathered the array flags on the table and handed them to Shen Ying beside him with a fawning expression. “Here you go, Great Immortal!”
Shen Ying frowned in disdain, probably because it was in the fish’s stomach, the flags had a fishy smell. Hence she turned towards Ling Hong and the others and asked, “Want them? Gift for you all.”
“Ah? Ah!” Ling Hong was stunned, looking like he had heard things. “You want to give... give them to us?”
“That’s right!”
“But... but these are array flags needed to pass the round!” He reminded.
“I know that.” Shen Ying nodded, the smell was too strong, she didn’t want them.
“But... but...” He went for a long time but never came up with the whys and wherefores and could only look towards Lonemoon.
“Take them!” Lonemoon also said uncaringly. “We have no lack of these array flags, take it us a bonus on top of the fishbone you bought earlier.”
Ling Hong turned back and looked at the three others, feeling a warmth filling his chest and could no longer reject them, only feeling increasingly grateful towards these few people. He replied with cupped fists, “Then, we really thank you four fellow Daoists.” As he spoke, he picked up the array flags on the table, conjured a spell to clean up the flags, then distributed four amongst themselves before returning the remaining two.
“We only have four people so just four is enough, as for these remaining two...” He spoke seriously, “Though you all are strong and powerful cultivators that we can barely match up to and you might not care for these two array flags, but it’s still early in the competition, it’s better to keep it with you just in case. Of course, if anything crops up later on, you can take back these four flags from us anytime.”
He looked extremely sincere that Lonemoon raised his brows in slight surprise before taking the remaining two array flags back. “Alright!” Seems like the nature of these people were still good, at least they weren’t greedy and knew gratitude and propriety. Initially, he’d sold the fish bone to them on the account that they were disciples of the Immortal Spirit Academy and thought that they might require their help with regard to the matter of the spirit seed.
“Oh yes.” He seemed to have recalled something and turned back to glance at his sister Ling Fei before saying with a troubled and slightly guilty look, “Just now my sister Ling Fei’s loose tongue revealed that you all had captured the Red Scented Fish Monster. That Ren Qing has always had an irreconcilable feud with us, he will definitely make sure that everyone knows about that. Adding to that the array flags that we have... it might attract many covetous eyes and bring trouble to you all.”
He’d directly voiced out his worries, Ling Fei had also just thought about that, knowing that she had made a mistake, she paled instantly, looking at the few of them bewilderedly. “It’s my... it’s my fault!” She looked like she was about to break into tears anytime.
“No worries!” Lonemoon wasn’t bothered, those fishes naturally came with an exotic fragrance, even if she hadn’t said anything, those people would have thought of it after they left too. So it had nothing much to do with them, besides, they were really not too worried, especially after knowing that those array flags were placed within the monsters. “You don’t have to blame yourselves, if others want to come seek trouble, by all means.”
“No.” Ling Hong said slightly agitatedly. “This matter started because of us, though our cultivation is lacking, we... we still ask that fellow Daoists allow us to join you. Even if we can only offer a little bit of help, it’s still good!”
“Join us?” Lonemoon’s eyes narrowed.
“Please do not misunderstand.” Afraid that he thought that they wanted to cling onto them, Ling Hong brought out an item, adding, “Though our cultivation is lacking, but we’re disciples of Immortal Spirit Academy, everyone in our academy has such a communication token. This can display the location of people from the same academy within 10 miles of our radius. Although we won’t be able to guard against the disciples of the other academies, we can still help in avoiding disciples of Immortal Spirit Academy.” In this mystic realm, a majority were disciples from Immortal Spirit Academy.
“Oh?” Lonemoon became slightly interested and took another look at the communication token in his hand. “You’re saying that you can contact all the disciples from your academy?”
“That is the case!” He nodded.
“I see!” Lonemoon suddenly broke into a wide grin, looking Spring had come as warmth floated around him. His eyes squinted into a narrow slit. “Earlier on you said... that this Red Scented Fish Monster is very rare?”
Ling Hong faltered for a moment and nodded subconsciously. “Ye... Yeah.” Why does his smile seem quite odd? Suddenly felt like he was about to lose something.
“Come, tell me in detail...” Lonemoon’s smile became brighter, he had some sort of prescience that stacks of cash bills were flocking towards him.
The master and disciple at a side...
“Master, could it be that Father Niu is thinking of doing business here?”
“100%.”
“Then has he forgotten, what we came here to do?”
“Huh? What did we come in here for?”
Yi Qing: “...”
Buggy: “...”
****
The stone tablet outside the mystic realm.
The name “Immortal Spirit Academy Three 23” that was at the bottom of the stone tablet suddenly lit up and rose all the way to the topmost spot, a number ‘four’ that was slightly smaller also lit up underneath and following behind it was the name “Invincible Academy”, with ‘two’ written below it.
At this time, everyone outside the mystic realm were the teachers of the various academies. The changes on this stone tablet instantly caught everyone’s attention and they were all shocked.
“Hmm? Four array flags!” A teacher smiled and said to the few people from Immortal Spirit Academy. “They’ve just entered the mystic realm less than an hour ago and they’ve already obtained four array flags, indeed proving themselves to be disciples from Immortal Spirit Academy.”
“You’re too kind, Teacher Li!” The Stygian Immortal from Immortal Spirit Academy took a look and was also stunned. “Perhaps it’s just being lucky that they happened to see four array flags.” He replied courteously with a smile, similarly amazed deep down. He did not expect that the first to get four array flags would be the disciples from team three.
