Chapter 241: Pulling Monsters in One Wave?
The next day, early morning.
When it was time for breakfast, Mingcang started his endless nagging again, which annoyed everyone.
The final match was a team battle in the secret realm. The rules of the competition were actually very simple: first, to seize the soul jade slips of the participants; and second, to hunt down a certain number of monsters in the secret realm.
Crushing a piece of soul jade slip is worth five points, while hunting demonic beasts is more detailed: obtaining an inner core is worth one point, while obtaining a demon core is worth five points.
Demon cores only grow in the bodies of demon beasts of the fifth rank or higher, so they are not much easier to deal with than those of cultivators.
It not only tests an individual's ability to adapt to real-world situations, but also their teamwork skills.
Ye Luo propped her chin up and stirred the food in her bowl, listening to her master's rambling beside her. She looked completely bored, and thus lost her appetite even more.
The First Elder said, "This team battle is a seven-player format, which is somewhat advantageous for us. Xiao Yin, you must take good care of them."
Nan Muyin said, "Elder, please rest assured."
Ming Cang said, "This secret realm competition is estimated to last about three days. Be careful once you go in. If you encounter any danger, crush the jade slip and come out. Do you all understand?"
"yes!"
When the Peach Blossom Valley group arrived at the arena, Ye Luo saw that a magic circle had been activated in the center of the arena, which was probably the entrance to the team battle secret realm.
At this moment, an elder of the Judgment stepped forward and handed over the soul jade slip in his hand, saying, "Pour a trace of your soul power into it, please keep it safe."
"Oh, thank you for your trouble."
Ming Cang took the jade slip and distributed it to the seven people, saying solemnly, "You must not act alone. This competition is different from the past. The judges will not come in with you. It is a life-and-death experience for the disciples within the alliance. After all, the missions that the alliance will send you in the future will not be these light-hearted competitions."
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, then nodded solemnly, "Yes!"
Before long, as the sound of the spirit drum rang out, the disciples from the ten participating sects all walked towards the magic array in the arena.
"Daddy, you can do it!" Ye Xi shouted excitedly to Ye Luo, holding Yu Xian'er's hand.
Ye Luo grinned, "Don't worry, watch how Daddy beats them up!"
Nan Yaoyao: "Brother, keep going!"
"good!"
With a flash of light, the seventy people standing inside the magic circle vanished instantly. In the blink of an eye, several huge crystal screens rose up, displaying scenes from various parts of the secret realm.
"Holy crap! What is this?!"
Looking at the "mountain of corpses and sea of blood" before him, which still reeked of decay, Xiao Huan couldn't help but move closer to Nan Muyin beside him. "These bones... they must belong to demonic beasts, right?"
Nan Muyin carefully looked around and said, "There must be quite a few ferocious beasts here, so we all need to be careful."
Cen Feng: "Senior Brother Xiao, keep your voice down, don't attract the monsters."
"Okay!"
Cen Feng summoned several small puppets and sent them forward to investigate, but apart from the rotting corpses, he found nothing unusual.
The unpleasant smell made Xiao Huan cover his mouth and nose, and he couldn't help but gag. "Ugh—!"
Seeing his appearance, Ye Luo suddenly felt nauseous and squatted down to vomit violently, throwing up all of her breakfast.
"Damn, what's wrong with you two?" Cen Feng saw them squatting behind him vomiting and couldn't help but turn around and walk towards them.
"It stinks here, I couldn't hold it in for a moment!" Xiao Huan said, wiping his mouth.
Seeing that Ye Luo was still gagging, Cen Feng patted his back and asked, "Are you alright?"
Ye Luo vomited until tears streamed down her face. She patted her chest, waved her hand, cleared her throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "Damn it... Senior Brother Xiao, can you please stop disgusting me?"
Xiao Huan said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, how could you react so strongly?"
"Tsk, what are you two doing?" At this moment, Yu Qianling came back from scouting and picked up Ye Luo. "Come on, don't fly yet, come with me."
Following Yu Qianling through many twists and turns, the group finally emerged from the terrifying mountain of corpses and entered a dense forest.
Xiao Huan finally stopped holding his breath and greedily inhaled several breaths of air. "I'm finally alive."
Ye Luo plopped down on the ground, and after a long while, the nausea finally subsided. After looking around for a moment, she said, "There are animal hooves everywhere here. It seems there are quite a few monsters, big and small."
Yu Qianling laughed and said, "That's great! Let's wipe them out and we'll get the points!"
Ye Luo: "Third Senior Sister, your idea is not wrong, but don't forget that this thing is like a jade slip. Others can snatch it. Don't be too reckless and exhaust your spiritual power. Otherwise, you'll be doing someone else's favor."
Yu Qianling said helplessly, "We can't just go around doing things to people, can we? It seems like we wouldn't earn many points that way."
"How about... we play it safe for now and grab the easy stuff later?" As soon as Feng Yue finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but look at him.
"W-What's wrong?" Feng Yue avoided everyone's gaze. "This...this method is indeed not good...just pretend I didn't say anything..."
Yu Qianling smiled with satisfaction, then draped her arm around his shoulder and said, "Oh dear, little Yueyue... you've become naughty, but I like it, hahaha!"
Jian Yu said, "But if we encounter a powerful enemy, it's better to fight a demonic beast..."
Nan Muyin chuckled and said, "Alright, although the alliance hasn't banned it, it's best to avoid these underhanded tricks. We still need to protect the reputation of our sect."
Ye Luo took out a green spiritual fruit, ate it in big bites, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "'Do less' doesn't mean you can't do it, right?"
Nan Muyin smiled and coughed lightly: "If you have a grievance, settle it; if you have a grudge, settle it. Just do whatever you want when the time comes, just don't go too far."
"I know, I know, I know exactly what I'm doing." Yu Qianling was overjoyed. Since both of them had already given their approval, she no longer had to worry about her master settling scores later.
Ye Luo swallowed the last bite of the spiritual fruit, stood up, and patted the grass clippings off his clothes. "Let's go, we can't just sit around doing nothing. Let's go kill a wave of demonic beasts to make sure we're absolutely safe."
Yu Qianling asked with a puzzled look, "Didn't you just say you wanted to conserve some spiritual energy?"
"There are ways to fight without using spiritual energy!"
"ah?"
Ye Luo took out a few rocket launcher magic weapons and threw them to them, laughing, "They do consume a lot of spirit stones, so we need to concentrate our firepower."
"How do we concentrate this?" Cen Feng asked.
Ye Luo said, "It's simple. I'll find a spot and set up a magic array later. You guys can go and lure those demonic beasts over one by one. That should do it, right?"
Nan Muyin chuckled and said, "This method is feasible, so let's do it this way."
The group found a place with a relatively open view. After looking around, Ye Luo activated the array flags in his hand and planted them around the area according to the layout of the array, instantly setting up three magic arrays.
"Alright," Ye Luo said with satisfaction.
"Hmm, Junior Brother's formations have improved quite a bit." Nan Muyin nodded. "Then Xiao Huan and Xiao Yu, you two stay here with Junior Brother to guard this place. The rest of you can disperse and lure out the monsters."
"good!"
