Chapter 161
Lian Chengkong lowered his head and looked at the compass in his hand. The compass in his hand did not show the location of Jing Feiyue's space ring.
That space ring should have been lost in the secret realm. If Jing Feiyue was killed, the student who killed Jing Feiyue would definitely have taken Feiyue's space ring. Could it be that Jing Feiyue died at the hands of the monster in the secret realm?
Lian Chengkong suddenly looked much older when he found out that the two disciples he had carefully trained were actually in the secret realm.
Xiong Wei looked at Lian Chengkong's face and couldn't help feeling a little sympathy.
Lian Chengkong accepted two disciples with eighth-level qualifications, and usually hid them like treasures. If the secret realm had not been opened, Xiong Wei would not have known that Lian Chengkong had these two disciples.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Lian Chengkong spent so much effort to train these two people and had high hopes for them, but they both died quietly in the secret realm, without a single one of them left.
Yin Zong’s death dealt a heavy blow to Kong Sha, but when he saw that both of Lian Chengkong’s disciples had died, Kong Sha’s mood suddenly calmed down a lot.
Kong Sha looked at Lu Yao and thought secretly: At least I still have one disciple left, but Lian Chengkong’s two disciples are all dead.
Kong Sha looked at Mu Chen and Ye Shi with a bad face. Ye Shi made a face at Kong Sha fearlessly, which made Kong Sha's face turn ashen with anger.
Jing Chiyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ye Shi's actions.
After a genius dies, he is just an ordinary dead person. Kong Sha did not turn against Yin Zong and Sheng Xing.
The two academies had a good experience on this trip to the secret realm, but because both principals lost their disciples, this trip was overshadowed.
…
"Disciple, you are amazing. You can even handle an eight-star martial spirit. He is Kongsha's most proud disciple! You made Kongsha's face turn green with rage. You are the first one who can make him so angry." Jing Chiyan looked at Ye Shi with admiration.
Ye Shi said smugly, "It's just an eight-star martial spirit. I can kill it easily. It's no big deal."
Jing Chiyan rolled his eyes and said, "I told you you were fat, and you were out of breath. I've heard that you were able to kill that guy with the help of the formation, and luck also played a big part."
Ye Shi argued disapprovingly: "My strength, Ye Shi, is crucial."
Jing Chiyan shook his head helplessly, "If it weren't for Mu Chen, how could you be so arrogant here?"
Ye Shi rubbed his nose and said, "Mu Chen is very powerful."
Jing Chiyan narrowed his eyes. Before, everyone in Mingyue Academy thought that Yin Zong had killed Mu Chen and Ye Shi. But in fact, it was the two of them who killed Yin Zong. Those people in Mingyue must have been very disappointed.
"It's a bit strange to say. Jing Feili was killed by Yin Zong. No one knows how Jing Feiyue died. She was a four-star martial spirit. If she hadn't met Yin Zong, she should have been able to protect herself." Jing Chiyan muttered in confusion.
When Ye Shi heard Jing Chiyan's words, his heart couldn't help but pound.
"Maybe a monster saw that she was pretty and married her as his wife." Ye Shi said with a wandering look.
"You! You just talk nonsense. Forget it, the person is dead. It's useless to investigate how she died." Jing Chiyan smiled helplessly, shook his head and sighed lightly.
Ye Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jing Chiyan no longer mentioned Jing Feiyue.
"Master, how's the matter with the Lion Jade going?" Ye Shi asked.
Jing Chiyan's face darkened. Shi Ziyu was a spy for the Mingyue students. As soon as Xing Tang found out, the dean quickly and decisively got rid of Shi Ziyu.
Shi Ziyu was originally from the Fran Empire. He had been lurking in the Xuanfeng Empire for decades and then entered the Holy Star. His intentions were truly sinister.
The academy focused all its attention on Shi Ziyu, and as a result, Zhuang Yu ran away with the people from Mingyue Academy.
The dean originally thought that Shi Ziyu had bad intentions, but the academy was pretty good to Zhuang Yu, and Zhuang Yu must have some feelings for the academy, so the dean sent someone to persuade Zhuang Yu.
As a result, Zhuang Yu felt that the academy had killed her master without any discrimination, which was really despicable, and she seemed to hate the academy to the core.
The dean was already exhausted by the death of his two apprentices, and was further angered by Zhuang Yu, almost going insane.
"Shi Ziyu is dead, and Zhuang Yu left with the people from Mingyue Academy."
Ye Shi narrowed his eyes and said, "It's better for him to leave. He's always in front of me. He's too much of an eyesore."
"It's a pity that the academy used a lot of spiritual objects on Zhuang Yu, but this kid left cleanly and neatly." Jing Chiyan shook his head and said helplessly.
Ye Shi curled his lips. Before the martial arts competition, the academy used a lot of things to help Zhuang Yu improve his cultivation. In the end, were all things done to benefit others?
"Before, I didn't realize that Zhuang Yu, this delicate and weak boy, is such a cruel and ruthless person." Jing Chiyan said with a frown.
Zhuang Yu was also a Level 8 student! She also had a Celestial Yin body, and I heard she also possessed special spiritual eyes. It was a shame that such an outstanding student was snatched away by someone from Dark Moon Academy.
"Master, you have no vision! I can tell at a glance that Zhuang Yu is a cruel, vicious, hypocritical, two-faced person." Ye Shi said with some pride.
Jing Chiyan smiled helplessly and said, "Yes, you have the best vision."
"It's good that Zhuang Yu is gone." Ye Shi said with some joy.
"What good will it be if he leaves?" Jing Chiyan asked.
"He is a traitor. It is better for such a person to leave sooner rather than later." Ye Shi said as a matter of course.
Jing Chiyan smiled and said, "That's true."
I heard that Zhuang Yu helped Lu Yao find more than a dozen thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in the secret realm. Zhuang Yu and Lu Yao must have been hooking up for a long time.
This kid Zhuang Yu is really... hard to tell!
"Lan Ruofeng died in the secret realm." Jing Chiyan looked at Ye Shi thoughtfully.
Ye Shi nodded and said calmly: "Oh, he deserves it."
Jing Chiyan looked at Ye Shi's gloating face, but did not ask Ye Shi whether Lan Ruofeng's death was related to him.
"The dean has been in a bad mood these days. You and Muchen should keep quiet and don't hang around him." Jing Chiyan said seriously.
Ye Shi nodded and said readily, "Okay."
Ye Shi lowered his head. He had no intention of showing up in front of the dean. Although no one saw Jing Feiyue being killed, there was no guarantee that there would be no clues left behind. At this time, it would be better for him to stay out of the spotlight. After the storm passed, even if the dean knew that he was the one who killed her, he would keep quiet.
…
After resting for a while, Mu Chen and Ye Shi both went into seclusion.
While in the secret realm, the two of them took pills made from thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. The medicinal properties were deposited in their bodies and had not been completely absorbed. The Yuanshi they harvested in the secret realm were not used up either.
During this trip to the secret realm, the appearance of Yin Zong and the Jing brothers and sisters made Mu Chen feel the hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this world.
Lu Yao and Zhuang Yu also put a lot of pressure on Mu Chen. Mu Chen realized that if he didn't work hard, he would easily be caught up by the two and then become cannon fodder.
Mu Chen secluded himself for a month and completely absorbed the medicinal properties dormant in his body. The sixty Yuan stones found in the secret realm were also absorbed.
After coming out of seclusion, Mu Chen's strength was promoted to the four-star martial spirit level. To Mu Chen's surprise, Ye Shi's strength was also promoted to the four-star martial spirit level, catching up with him.
"Shi Tou, you're making rapid progress!" Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and said with a smile.
Ye Shi scratched his head and said, "Really?"
He absorbed all the sixty Yuan Stones in just a few days. After using up all the Yuan Stones, Ye Shi had no choice but to start absorbing ordinary Yuan Stones. After getting used to high-quality Yuan Stones, Ye Shi felt that low-quality Yuan Stones were not enough.
"Yes!" Mu Chen said.
There is indeed a gap between the innate eighth-level talent and the acquired eighth-level talent. Looking at Ye Shi, Mu Chen couldn't help but mutter secretly.
It seems that if Weilong doesn’t want to be left behind by those with true level eight qualifications, he needs to work harder!
"Have both of you come out?" Xiong Wei walked over with his hands behind his back, looking at the two of them calmly.
"Yes! Master." Mu Chen said respectfully.
Xiong Wei looked at the two of them and smiled slightly. Mu Chen and Ye Shi were only fourteen years old, but they were already four-star martial spirits. The dean's two disciples became four-star martial spirits at the age of eighteen.
"I'm going to Tianxin City. Do you two want to go there together?" Xiong Wei said.
"Tianxin City?" Ye Shi couldn't help but blink.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Tianxin City was said to be a commercial capital. As long as you had Yuanshi, you could buy anything there.
Tianxin City does not belong to any country. It is a joint organization of several powerful forces. There are several Martial Emperors in charge. I heard that it is very powerful.
Mu Chen couldn't help but feel a little excited. His cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and so did his numerology. At this time, relying on closed-door hard training would not make much progress, so it would be nice to go out for a walk and take a look.
"Senior, have you taken a fancy to something?" Ye Shi asked.
Xiong Wei nodded and said, "Yes! I heard that there is an auction in Tianxin City, and there is a piece of black ice jadeite as big as a washbasin for sale."
If he could get this thing, his cultivation level would rise quickly to two stars.
Once one's cultivation reaches Xiong Wei's level, it is very difficult to move forward. Many Martial Emperors need decades or even hundreds of years to leap from one star to two stars.
With such an opportunity, Xiong Wei naturally didn't want to give it up easily.
"That thing must be very expensive." Ye Shi said.
Xiong Wei nodded and said, "Yes! The starting price is 300 million."
Ye Shi widened his eyes. The starting price was 300 million, how much would the final price be?
Ye Shi looked at Xiong Wei suspiciously and said, "The starting price is 300 million. Why are you still going to see it? You can't afford it even if you see it."
"How do you talk like that?" Xiong Wei glared at Ye Shi unhappily.
Ye Shi curled his lips. He was telling the truth. Xiong Wei was very poor!
"The dean gave me 500 million Yuanshi, and I have some assets of my own." Xiong Wei took out a Yuanshi card and said.
Ye Shi looked at the Yuanshi card in Xiong Wei's hand, his eyes shining with gold. Five hundred million, five hundred million! The dean is really a rich man!
Xiong Wei looked at Ye Shi's sparkling eyes and glared at him unhappily, "Don't dwell on it."
"Senior, you have a family fortune. How much does it mean?" Ye Shi asked curiously.
"Five million." Xiong Wei said somewhat dejectedly.
Ye Shi: “…”
"Only five million!" Ye Shi looked at Xiong Wei with a look of contempt in his eyes.
Xiong Wei looked at Ye Shi's face and was furious.
"What's with that expression on your face?" Xiong Wei asked unhappily.
"Senior, you are the Martial Emperor, but you are a Martial Emperor and you only have a family fortune of five million." Ye Shi muttered.
What's wrong with Emperor Wu? Can't Emperor Wu be poor?
