Chapter 203 Volunteering
Holy Star Academy.
"Wanbai, have you heard? Mu Chen and Ye Shi are coming back soon. They have already arrived in the Cang Qiong Empire. They should come back with Senior Xiong Wei." Xie Danyan said, waving the whip in her hand.
Xie Danyan sighed secretly in her heart. Over the past three years, she had practiced with all her might and had become a three-star martial spirit. Such an achievement was outstanding in the academy, but compared with Muchen Ye Shi, it was really not enough.
Cheng Wanbai smiled and said, "How could I not have heard of it? These two are making a big fuss whenever there's even a little bit of trouble."
Because of the beast tide, the atmosphere in the country was somewhat tense. Several cities were breached by monsters and the people in the cities were slaughtered, which caused panic among the people.
Muchen and Ye Shi are both nine-star martial kings with great strength. Their return is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the subjects of the Xuanfeng Empire.
Heroes emerge in troubled times, and the country also needs heroes to stabilize people's hearts. So, Muchen and Ye Shi became such heroes.
All kinds of praise were poured down on Muchen and Yeshi, such as selfless, concerned about the country and the people, selfless devotion, clean hands, noble character, and loyalty... Muchen and Yeshi were instantly transformed into saints.
"I heard that Muchen is already a sixth-level alchemist. In the Cangkong Empire, he has refined a large number of Spirit Emperor Pills. A group of Martial Emperors now worship Muchen as a Bodhisattva." Cheng Wanbai shrugged.
When they first met, Cheng Wanbai thought that Muchen was just a young man with some potential. But now, Muchen has reached the top of this world. Now, the principal's status is probably not as high as Muchen's.
"Mu Chen and Ye Shi are already nine-star martial kings. I really don't know how these two guys cultivated." Cheng Wanbai murmured.
Xie Danyan rolled her eyes and said, "I guess these two guys are practicing so fast, they must be practicing dual cultivation."
Cheng Wanbai glared at Xie Danyan unhappily and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xie Danyan shrugged and said, "Maybe not. Mu Chen and Ye Shi hang out together every day, so how could they not practice dual cultivation? Unless, Mu Chen is impotent."
Cheng Wanbai glanced at Xie Danyan and said, "In that case, why don't you find someone to practice dual cultivation with?"
"I do want to, but unfortunately, there is no suitable one. If there is a man who is half as good as you, Wanbai, I will marry him. What's the harm in that?" Xie Danyan said sadly.
Cheng Wanbai glared at Xie Danyan angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Senior Xiong, the people from the summit have delivered the invitation." Lin Nan walked in and said.
"The Four-Nation Summit is finally about to begin!" Xiong Wei said meaningfully, with his hands behind his back.
"Mr. Ye, this is an invitation for you, and there is another one for Muchen." Lin Nan said.
Ye Shi looked at Lin Nan in surprise. "Me too? I heard that only emperor-level masters are invited to the summit! How come I'm invited too?"
"Originally, only emperor-level masters would be invited. However, Master Ye, you are so powerful that ordinary emperor-level masters are no match for you. Moreover, you are a sixth-level formation master, so it is only right that we invite you."
Lin Nan looked at Ye Shi with admiration.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad, you have good taste."
"Mr. Ye, you're too kind." Lin Nan said with a smile.
Ye Shi tilted his head, looked at Lin Nan with a playful look, and said, "Hey, do you think Senior Xiong is an ordinary emperor-level master?"
Lin Nan's expression suddenly changed. Ye Shi's question was really...
Xiong Wei glared at Ye Shi furiously and said, "You bastard, with your limited skills, you still want to compete with me."
Ye Shi smiled indifferently. In a head-on confrontation, he would naturally not be a match for Xiong Wei. However, if he drove the Sky-Devouring Worm to deal with Xiong Wei, his chances of winning would be greater. If he then used talismans to attack, then defeating Xiong Wei would be a sure thing. Imagining Xiong Wei running for his life away as he was chased by the Sky-Devouring Worm, Ye Shi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Xiong Wei looked at Ye Shi's expression and felt annoyed. "What are you thinking? You smile so cunningly."
Ye Shi's eyes flickered left and right as he said, "Nothing!"
Xiong Wei snorted coldly and said, "Don't get carried away. Not every level six monster is as easy to deal with as the monster snake you encountered that day."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "I know."
A loud "boom" suddenly sounded, Ye Shi's face changed, and he immediately jumped out, followed closely by Xiong Wei.
In the alchemy room, the alchemy furnace was blown into pieces, three pills were floating in the air, and Mu Chen sat on the side, gasping for breath.
"Mu Chen, are you okay?" Ye Shi walked forward anxiously and asked.
Mu Chen shook his head, smiled, and said, "It's okay. I just used the alchemy furnace too much and it had a problem. I didn't expect it to explode. But fortunately, at the last moment, I was able to get the pill out. The pill is fine, only the alchemy furnace is damaged."
Xiong Wei: "..." The pill is fine! The pill is fine, the furnace has exploded, and Mu Chen is still thinking about the pill. Why didn't he know before that this guy, like Ye Shi, is a man who values money over life.
Waves of whistling sounds were heard, and seven or eight emperor-level masters appeared around.
"It seems that the explosion of the furnace made too much noise and attracted a lot of people." Xiong Wei said.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "It seems that many people are worried about me now."
"That's not the case." Xiong Wei nodded.
The four-nation summit was finally held under the attention of the public.
Mu Chen and Ye Shi followed Xiong Wei into the meeting room.
As soon as Mu Chen entered the door, a group of Martial Emperors stood up and greeted him.
Mu Chen's alchemy skills are obvious to all. Even an emperor-level master would not underestimate such a young and powerful alchemist with extraordinary alchemy skills.
Ye Shi's eyes swept around. Three Martial Emperor masters came from the Mingyue Empire. Ye Shi's gaze stopped on an Emperor-level master. Ye Shi did not recognize that person, but Ye Shi recognized the person behind that person, Mu Mingfeng.
That year, Mu Mingfeng and he met in the secret realm. Mu Mingfeng said that only by practicing the Hundred Refinements Body Art to the level of Purple Gold Wall can one open the Wuzong Secret Cave left by the Jin family.
If he could practice the Hundred Refinements Body Art to the level of Purple Gold Wall, this person would tell him how to open the secret cave.
Feeling Ye Shi's gaze, Mu Mingfeng secretly gritted his teeth and thought about the years when they were in the secret realm. Ye Shi was a martial spirit and he was a martial artist. Although the gap was huge, it was not as despairing as it is now.
In just three short years, Ye Shi and Muchen had both become Nine-Star Martial Kings. Even his grandfather, a Five-Star Martial Emperor, had to treat them with respect.
Feeling Ye Shi's gaze on him, Mu Mingfeng nodded lightly at Ye Shi.
Ye Shi bit his lip. He had already cultivated to the Golden Jade. If he wanted to cultivate to the Purple Golden Jade, he would have to find a sixth-level monster to refine his body with its blood. Sixth-level monsters were rarely seen on ordinary days. Fortunately, he heard that there would be many sixth-level monsters appearing during the beast tide. Ye Shi thought to himself: If a sixth-level monster appeared, he must find a way to catch two and bleed them.
Ye Shi lowered his head and couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.
Fortunately, the Martial Emperors didn't know what Ye Shi was thinking. If they knew that Ye Shi used Level 6 as his private blood bank, they would probably vomit blood.
Muchen and Ye Shi sat down next to Xiong Wei.
The Cang Qiong Empire is the host, and the person in charge is an eight-star Martial Emperor named Wei Xuan.
"Thank you very much for coming to this four-nation summit. I believe you all know that the beast tide is imminent. Now is a matter of life and death for the four nations. The first topic of discussion at this meeting is defending the Tianlan Line. I believe everyone knows the importance of this line of defense. Once it is breached, the monsters of the Dusk Forest will be able to march straight in. I hope everyone will pay attention to this line of defense."
"Brother Mu, who do you from the Mingyue Empire plan to send to guard the defense line?" Wei Xuan asked.
"We, Mingyue Society, will send out three fellow Taoists: Shan Cheng, Lu Chengfeng, and Fang Yun." Mu Zhan said lightly.
Wei Xuan nodded and said, "That's great. Brother Shan is a Seven-Star Martial Emperor. With him stationed here, and with the help of Lu Chengfeng and Fang Yun, we should be able to rest easy. Brother Xiong, how about your Xuanfeng Empire?"
"I'll go with Mu Chen too." Ye Shi said.
Wei Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, "You and Mu Chen."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes! Although Muchen and I are not as good as the emperor-level masters, we are both level six formation masters. We can use formations to strengthen the defense line. With Muchen and I in charge, we will be no worse than the emperor-level masters."
Wei Xuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Of course we believe in your abilities, but..." Mu Chen is an alchemist! Everyone relies on him to make the elixir.
"Even if we reach the border, I can still find time to refine pills and won't delay the work of the seniors." Mu Chen said lightly.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Master Mu and Master Ye."
Canglan Defense Line.
Several Martial Emperor masters gathered together.
"What are the higher-ups thinking? They actually sent two Martial Kings to guard the Canglan defense line. Do they treat this defense mission as a game?" Shan Cheng said unhappily.
"That's not the case. Although they are just Martial Kings, they are two Nine-Star Martial Kings." Duan Li said.
"Even if he is a nine-star martial king, he is just a martial king." Shan Cheng said unhappily.
"Brother Shan, there's no need to be so angry. I heard that Ye Shi once killed a level six monster by himself. I believe he won't be a burden." Fang Yun said.
Shan Cheng said with a gloomy face, "I've seen that video. That level six monster must have just entered level six. It's not that strong. Ye Shi, he's just lucky. If he gets another chance..."
"If it happens again, maybe he will still be lucky." Duan Li said with a smile.
Shan Cheng said unhappily, "Are we going to rely on luck for the safety of the four nations?"
"That's not the case. Even if Muchen and Ye Shi are not strong enough, they are both level six formation masters. I think they can still be of great help." Duan Li said indifferently.
Shan Cheng said coldly: "Sixth level formation master, who can confirm it?"
"Okay, Brother Shan, I know that you and Lin Moyuan are old friends, and Mu Chen and Ye Shi have always had a grudge against each other, but now that we are facing a powerful enemy, we should all work together." Duan Li said indifferently.
Shan Cheng snorted coldly and said, "I'm just discussing the matter."
"Return it. Stop arguing, you two. We'll know whether it's a mule or a horse after we take it out for a walk. Wait until the two men arrive and see their abilities. If they're really no match, we can only ask the higher-ups to replace them." Fang Yun said coldly.
"It's not that easy to change people!" Lin Luofeng said with a smile.
"This damn place is so dangerous. If two people who really drag us down come here and I don't get a replacement, I'll quit." Fang Yun said coldly.
