This fairy mountain, even if he is reluctant to leave, he should leave
Cong Mo instructed him, "Xiao Can, hide aside and protect our Doulou. We will end this quickly."
Leng Can hugged the three baskets tightly, with Xi Chengming's little spirit beast still on his shoulder. "Ah-woo!" he cried. He hurriedly ran back and hid under a tree, "I will protect myself well, you guys hurry up!"
"I will." Cong Mo closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, put his thumbs together, and pressed them between his eyebrows to draw spiritual power into the magic circle in his hands. He opened his eyes again, and fire ignited in his eyes, "You go left and I go right, interrupt their spellcasting!"
"Okay." Xi Chengming narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists tightly and then opened them again. A magic circle suddenly appeared, and his spiritual power burst out from his eyebrows. "Let's go!"
The man in the middle transformed the formation into a virtual flute. He held the flute, which was engraved with runes. He played it gently, and the notes turned into invisible blades, shuttling through the air.
Cong Mo Dang struck back, and the magic formation in his hand turned into a sharp chain, which was thrown towards the man. The chain wrapped around the flute and pulled it tightly towards him. He put his hands together, and the magic formation collided with the flute and crushed it.
"you…"
"ah!"
Before the man could curse, the shrill screams and blood splattering on his face were enough to make him panic. Xi Chengming pinned the man down and smashed him down with his fist. He raised his head, and the blood on his face turned into ethereal smoke and drifted away. The man under him had long lost consciousness, half of his body had become empty. "Junior brother, forget what I taught you, learn to be humble."
The man immediately retreated and used his spiritual power to transform into a flute again, "Cover me!"
"Who will cover you?" A long voice sounded in his ear, and the man's back touched an object as hot as fire. Cong Mo fixed the magic circle behind him, and with a strong push, the man's whole body flew into the air. His limbs were trapped and unable to move, and he flew forward.
Xi Chengming raised his hand, and he fell into his hand, with his neck strangled, unable to breathe, let alone use his spiritual power to make a flute.
"What a shame! Senior Brother didn't teach me well. Because of you, I also don't know how to write the word humility!" Xi Chengming looked at him with a smile, "Junior Brother, you should take a look around you."
The man was speechless and looked around. There was a large group of people lying on the ground. Most of them had half their bodies turned into smoke, and those who were still breathing could no longer move. It turned out that just when he paid attention to Xi Chengming, these fellow apprentices around him had been killed silently by Cong Mo. The speed was so fast and the means were so cruel.
"Senior brother, let him go!" A woman came running over, flew past, and dropped a thunder that exploded at them. Xi Chengming subconsciously exerted force, pinched the man and flew backwards.
The smoke obscured his vision, and the air was extremely quiet. Cong Mo killed the last person, and at the same time, he smelled the scent of danger and restlessness.
Oh no, Xiaocan is in danger!
She stomped her feet violently, and the ground shook instantly. Earth walls rose from the ground, from low to high. Cong Mo tiptoed upwards, stepping on the stone walls and flying quickly. She put her hands together, and a large amount of spiritual power overflowed from her eyebrows. The magic circle collided with her palms, and spiritual power was infused into it and merged with it. Huge energy quickly condensed in her palms, and then aimed at the figure and pushed out. During the woman's action, she had not yet encountered the person she wanted to catch, but suddenly felt a threat from behind, so she had to start a counterattack and activate protection.
The spells collided with each other, making a deafening noise. The energy shock swept around like a storm, sending dust flying and making it impossible to open one's eyes.
Cong Mo immediately landed behind a tree and pulled Leng Can over to check if he was injured.
"I'm fine." Leng Can smiled foolishly, pointing to a fence on the ground surrounded by a simple magic circle. Inside, the little spirit beasts were nibbling on the snacks and preserved fruits he brought. "They are all hungry."
Cong Mo waved his hand to clear the gray mist. The woman was kneeling on the ground, vomiting blood, and half of her body had disappeared. Cong Mo walked over, a look of displeasure between his brows, "You should be glad this is an illusion."
"You won't really die."
"You shouldn't have touched him."
"Who said more people are better than fewer? Hmm," Xi Chengming pushed the man against a tree. Seeing that the two men were doing nothing, he started to scold him. "If you had stayed put, you could have made it to the next round. But you had to show up at the last moment. You really don't like participating in the competition. Then I will satisfy you."
After saying that, with a flash of light and the man's scream, he turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the air.
[There is still half an hour left before the end of the game. Please make a final effort and persevere.]
Their baskets dissipated, and the spirit beasts that were originally contained in the baskets ran out like a wisp of smoke. The three of them surrounded the entire area, using snacks and dried fruits to lure them into their baskets.
When the time came and the competition was about to end, Xi Chengming said goodbye to the little spirit beast reluctantly, his eyes red and he was about to cry.
Leng Can comforted him, "If we win, we will have the wish stone, right? We can just use it to make a wish."
"really?"
"How should I know? Why not just give it a try? It's not right for a grown man to cry!"
"Wuwu..." The more Xi Chengming spoke, the more excited he became. He grabbed Leng Can's shoulders and lay on his shoulder, crying.
Leng Can once again looked towards Cong Mo for help, "Xiao Mo..."
Cong Mo closed his eyes and leaned to the side.
Leng Can: “…”
"Next, we will announce the qualifiers and the top ten finishers for this magic competition."
"... First place, Wuqing Mountain, Cong Mo; second place, Shu Mountain, Xi Chengming; third place, Wuqing Mountain, Leng Can; fourth place... Congratulations everyone!"
The elders gave them wish stones.
"I've given you ten wish stones. Now you can make wishes related to the competition to help you progress in the upcoming matches."
Xi Chengming blinked, holding up the spirit stone and saying seriously, "I want to...let the little spirit beasts in the fantasy world come to the real world so I can raise them. Master, can you help me ask them if they are willing?"
The old man Shuyi smiled kindly and nodded, "Okay."
Then, a spot of light suddenly appeared in the air. When the spot of light disappeared, the little spirit beast fell into his hand. The little spirit beast made a joyful "Ah Wu" and rubbed his palm.
"One wish stone can only summon one spirit beast."
"There's one more." Cong Mo didn't need any wish stones. With Leng Can's tacit approval, he gave his share to Xi Chengming. "Two spirit stones will give you two spirit beasts."
The old man Shuyi nodded, "Okay."
Then, a larger spot of light appeared in the air, and shortly after, a pink meat ball fell from Xi Chengming's head, causing Xi Chengming to stagger and fall on his butt. However, the spirit beast licked his face, and he laughed even happier, with his mouth wide open and unable to close.
"When a spirit beast enters the human world, its body shrinks. A spirit beast that was once the same size as you is now only half your size."
"It's okay." Xi Chengming held up the two spirit beasts with his hands. He held the big one in his hands while the small one lay on top of the big one. "I can raise them to be plump and white."
Not knowing what he was thinking of, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Cong Mo with gratitude. Leng Can immediately became alert and pulled Cong Mo over to block her. "I allowed it, otherwise Xiao Mo would not be willing to give it to you. You have to thank me..."
"Bo"
Xi Chengming was so happy that he hugged him. To be more precise, he bumped into him. He was holding two spirit beasts in his arms, and Leng Can almost fell down. Xi Chengming didn't care about anything else and kissed him on the face, which petrified Leng Can on the spot.
"Thank you, Leng Can." After Xi Chengming expressed his gratitude, he happily left with the spirit beast in his arms, leaving Leng Can standing there stiffly, shaking with anger.
"Xiaocan, are you okay?" Cong Mo gently poked his face, "Are you frozen?"
“I am dirty, dirty…” Leng Can turned around and hugged Cong Mo. He couldn’t bear the grievance and kept wiping his face with his hands. Tears fell like beads that had fallen off the line. His eyes were like valves that couldn’t be closed. They fell down with a “click, click” sound, and a large area of Cong Mo’s shoulder was wet. “I am dirty… wuwuwa… Xiaomo, I am dirty… wow wow wow…”
He had never thought in his life that he would be kissed by a man, and it was this guy Xi Chengming.
But he also completely forgot what he had just said to Xi Chengming, and hugged Cong Mo and cried.
Cong Mo helplessly cast his gaze towards the old man, then watched him turn around silently.
Cong Mo: “…”
"This time, find a safe place and don't fall asleep again."
The second round of the competition begins. In this round, each player has an illusion, and even if the illusion scenes are the same, they cannot see each other.
Cong Mo patiently reminded him, "The wish stone hasn't been used yet. Be smart when the time comes. Just make sure you can hold on past half the crowd. It's already difficult for you to concentrate, so don't fall asleep again. Think about what you did in the past two months."
Leng Can didn't want to see her. Cong Mo knew better than anyone how he spent those two months.
"I understand, Xiaomo, don't worry." Leng Can patted her hand gently, "I will try my best. At least I have practiced before, and I can still get through half of the people."
"You'd better do it." Cong Mo stared at him, "I need to see you on the promotion list."
"Got it, I'm sure I'll be fine."
The illusion unfolds and everyone enters a different place.
Each player has half an hour to find the most suitable location for mental concentration training. Once you find a suitable location and are ready, you can activate the magic circle to activate the bracelet on your right wrist. Everyone, work hard!
Leng Can separated from Cong Mo and entered a village. The streets were deserted and looked desolate and dilapidated.
Although Leng Can was a little scared, he felt much more relaxed.
The wish stone in his pocket had not been used yet, so he took it out, looked at the river next to him, thought about it, and still couldn't bear to throw it away, so he kept it in his pocket.
Then he found a thatched hut that looked relatively clean, pushed the table to block the door, covered the window with wooden boards, and then lay down on the couch.
"This pillow is so hard."
He originally wanted to activate the bracelet to end the game and be eliminated, but he found that he didn't know how to use this magic circle and activate the bracelet.
After thinking about it, he covered his stomach with a leaf and prepared to sleep. After half an hour, he would be eliminated sooner or later.
He didn't plan to compete anymore. Even if he was reluctant to leave this fairy mountain, he would still be trapped in it despite struggling with all kinds of emotions.
He should have left a long time ago.
