Chapter 78 Second Ranking
Master Wuzhu patted its head. The divine beast did like to be tossed around a bit, but overall it was still in good condition and not to the point of being stewed.
However, the eyes of the disciples around him changed when they looked at the guardian beast, and tears of joy flowed down the corners of their mouths.
After Junior Sister treated everyone to delicious monster meat, will she also invite everyone to try the meat of divine beasts?
The saber-toothed tiger tugged at Master Wuzhu's sleeve, motioning him to look at the disciples around him. What kind of looks are those? I am a divine beast after all. Do divine beasts understand that they cannot kill beasts just because they have a dragon vein?
Master Wuzhu twitched his lips and said, "Don't look at it anymore. If you want to eat meat, go find Chef Zhou and tell him I said there will be plenty of meat today. We have plenty of spirit stones now, so how can we let you go hungry?"
As for the divine beast, don't even think about it. It is still very rare and it is not your turn to eat it. The meat on it is not enough for Ling'er to eat for a few days.
The saber-toothed tiger raised its head high again, completely unaware that its head was still hanging.
At this time, Master Wu Chen was not thinking about the guardian beast, but how to keep the dragon vein he had obtained.
More than twenty sect leaders of Dongzhou surrounded him, hoping to share the benefits brought by the dragon vein. They imposed all kinds of righteousness on Taiqiong Sect. If he dared to say no, he would be a sinner who harmed Dongzhou. It was his fault that Dongzhou's spiritual energy was not as good as Zhongzhou's. It was also his fault that Dongzhou did not have as many beauties as Zhongzhou. In short, it was wrong not to share the dragon vein.
Zhong Ling'er pulled Bai Luochen's sleeve and whispered something to the second senior brother who lowered his head.
Bai Luochen stepped out from the crowd and said to them, "Everyone, I also think that sharing the dragon vein is good for everyone. But whether we can control the luck of such a large area as Dongzhou, we still need to ask Qinglong's opinion. And as you all can see, his evil spirit has not been eliminated yet, so we need everyone's joint efforts."
Master Wu Chen asked the Azure Dragon in the sea of consciousness to come out. The Azure Dragon appeared in the sky impatiently, thought for a while, and then landed on Zhong Ling'er's head.
"It's fair for me to be a dragon. The Taiqiong Sect said they would support me and help me get rid of the evil spirit, so I agreed to follow them. If you also want my protection, the conditions are the same."
"I need to cultivate. Every ten years, I need to absorb a spiritual vein, which is equivalent to about two billion spiritual stones. Even if each of your sects has 100 million, the demonic energy in my body will be divided into 22 strands. Each of you can eliminate one strand. After you eliminate the demonic energy, I will connect the mountains and rivers of your sect to increase your luck."
"Didn't the Taiqiong Sect help you get rid of the evil spirit? And you just said that it doesn't cost any spirit stones and won't cause any trouble."
Faced with such shameless words, Qinglong was so angry that he laughed, "You don't work hard, but you still want to get benefits. You are dreaming. All the work will be done by Taiqiong Sect, and you should share all the benefits. Why don't you go to heaven?"
"I said I don't want the spiritual stones from Taiqiong Sect because they said that both spiritual stones belong to me, which is enough to support me for a hundred years. After a hundred years, the Taiqiong Sect's veins should have been able to nourish me to a certain extent, and its own spiritual energy can be used for my cultivation. But if I protect you for free, will Taiqiong Sect agree? Will they still give me spiritual stones?"
"Of course not!" Zhong Ling'er answered firmly, "Why don't we use Lingze ourselves? Why give it away for free? Anyway, you have to treat us the same way you treat them. I, Zhong Ling'er, will eat anything but won't suffer any loss."
Bai Luochen smiled faintly, "Why don't you discuss this first, if everyone agrees, it will be fine, after all, it is an equal share between the twenty-two sects, everyone can afford it. If a sect withdraws, then everyone will have to bear more, and some sects may find it difficult."
The leaders of the small sects have changed their expressions. Who said that if the twenty-two sects divided what they could afford equally? One hundred million spirit stones could be gathered in ten years, but how to eliminate the demonic energy? That was the demonic energy of the ancient demon, which even the ancient gods could not eliminate. It permeated the entire secret realm for ten thousand years before half of it was eliminated. Who of them dared to touch it?
As for Lingze, that is something that has not been seen in a thousand years. The little junior sister of Taiqiong Sect is a monster that only appears once in a thousand years. Can their sect accept such a disciple?
Qinglong didn't give them much time to think. He said, "I'll hear your reply tomorrow," and returned to Wuchen Zhenren's sea of consciousness.
The matter of the dragon vein could only be discussed further, so everyone's attention returned to the competition, and each sect began to gather disciples to calculate scores and rankings.
Li Qiufei, who had been forgotten for a long time, finally caught the attention of his master and fellow apprentices. He was able to get out thanks to Zhong Ling'er. If Zhong Ling'er had not subdued the dragon vein and sent everyone out when he took back the Origin Pearl, Li Qiufei would not know how long he would have to stay in the secret realm.
When the ranking came out, Taiqiong Sect was unanimously ranked first, and it was still the first by a large margin. After all, the magic flower that Qinglong gave them at the end had already made them invincible.
Then everyone was looking at their chins. The second place was Feixing Sect, the third was Huiying Valley, the fourth was Zixiao Sect, the fifth was Fengming Sect, and the sixth was Yaoxiang Pavilion...
Yes, there were no five major sects in people's minds, but instead, small sects that had always been less well-known emerged. People who watched the entire competition guessed that the big sects would suffer, but they did not expect it to be so miserable.
As the rankings were announced, the major sects appeared at the end: Qingshuang Sect ranked 16th, Wanluo Sect ranked 17th, Lingxi Valley ranked 18th, Wuji Sect ranked 19th, Tianyu Sect ranked 20th, Lingjian Sect ranked 21st, and Danxiang Pavilion ranked last again.
Master Yuying's face flushed red, and he was so angry looking at his own disciples, but he couldn't say anything to blame them. The big sects were all ranked at the back, but why were they the only ones ranked last twice in a row? Even if they were ranked second to last, he would look better.
The small sects were cheering, while the big sects were filled with sorrow. Immortal Wuji immediately pulled Zhong Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, your master asked your uncle to prepare spiritual food for you. He wants to reward you well."
When Zhong Ling'er heard this, she immediately took everyone to eat and quickly fled the battlefield.
After a hearty meal, Master Wu Chen called all his disciples to the yard and asked Fairy Qionghua to give everyone a lecture, focusing on popularizing common sense in the world of immortal cultivation. This competition made him see the shortcomings of his disciples. He couldn't figure out the Demon Lord and the Demon King, and didn't know the role of Lingze. The most terrifying thing was that they had to hold hands to overcome the tribulation. This was too damn terrifying. When he saw it, he was so scared that his heart stopped beating.
The five people who were tired after a few days did not expect that the first thing they did when they came back was to go to class. They all looked up at the sky in silence. They got the first place, shouldn’t they be rewarded well? At least let them have a good sleep.
Fairy Qionghua was speaking in front, and Zhong Ling'er took out paper and pen to take careful notes, which won praise from Fairy Qionghua. Qi Haoran felt something was wrong no matter how he looked at it. The little junior sister's pen was almost leaving afterimages, and she was speaking faster than Fourth Uncle. There was definitely something wrong.
