Chapter 60 The fear of being dominated
Chapter 60 The fear of being dominated
After Lu Wan changed his appearance, it was already past midnight when he returned to the disciple courtyard...
As soon as you enter the courtyard, you will see a lot of people standing or sitting in the courtyard.
"Why... are you all here?" Lu Wan looked at the people in front of him. Sitting there were Mo Yan, Kong Sheng and a group of others.
Standing were several old disciples of Skinny Monkey who had restored their appearance and formed a team this time.
Skinny Monkey and his companions looked at the people sitting there with admiration, and then looked at Feng Qing with starry eyes. The captain is worthy of being the captain. He even knows the people from the team led by Master Zhu in the previous session!
"Wait for you." Mo Yan looked at everyone and decided to let these scumbags speak first, so he raised his head and gestured.
Skinny Monkey and his companions quickly pulled Feng Qing aside and said excitedly, "Boss, we didn't expect you to be so awesome! You actually mixed up with them. They were the team of Master Zhu back then. They were known to be invincible back then. It's a pity that they all withdrew from the academy one after another after Master Zhu left. However, the legend of this small group of people has been circulating in both the inner and outer courtyards! What's more, the inner courtyard still has the disciple badges of these people. Although they are no longer disciples of the academy, they can still enter and leave the academy at will!" Skinny Monkey looked at the people sitting there with admiration.
Lu Wan was shocked. Is it so popular? "Then why are you here..."
"Of course I'm going to receive the award! Boss, you wouldn't have forgotten, we came here a long time ago, but I didn't expect someone to arrive earlier than us." Skinny Monkey said happily.
"The ranking is down?" Lu Wan asked, feeling very embarrassed. It was all Su Yichen's fault...
"Well, there will be a meeting in the square in the afternoon, don't be late," said Tang Yi.
"Go away, how can you talk to the boss like that? Is there any need to explain the ranking? Our team is definitely first, and the individual ranking must be the boss!" The skinny monkey squeezed Tang Yi and said to Feng Qing with a grin.
"Even if the meeting is in the afternoon, you've been waiting here so early in the morning...just tell us what you want to say." Lu Wan guessed, after waiting for the entire morning, it was impossible for them to just convey one sentence.
The skinny guys looked at each other, hesitant and not knowing how to start...
"If everything is fine, I'll leave..." Lu Wan looked at the hesitant people and sighed inwardly. Although these people were not as good as Mo Yan and others, they also had their own strengths. If they could be trained well, they would definitely become strong in the future and might even create their own legendary stories...
"No, no! Boss, we have something to ask you..." Skinny Monkey, as the representative of several people, stood up and said helplessly.
Lu Wan nodded, motioning everyone to follow him to another pavilion in the courtyard to talk. Everyone stood up and followed Lu Wan to the pavilion to sit down.
"Go ahead." Lu Wan said lightly.
"We will definitely be assigned to the inner courtyard this time." The skinny monkey took a deep breath and continued, "Although the resources in the inner courtyard are much more than those in the outer courtyard, it is also a place where the strong prey on the weak and eat people without leaving any bones. I just heard those seniors say that you are going to the middle world, so we want to ask you, can you take us with you? We promise that we will never cause you any trouble, let alone hold you back. In the inner courtyard, we may have no way out; but if we don't go to the inner courtyard, it will also be a dead end. In this case, we might as well give it a try and follow you, the boss, to the middle world to adventure. Even if we die in a foreign land in the end, we will have no regrets."
Skinny Monkey's words made the others nod their heads in agreement. Lu Wan looked at them quietly, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Although these people were not top-notch in strength, they had a brave and fearless heart, which was rare among practitioners.
Lu Wan looked at the determined eyes of several people and then shook his head.
Everyone is frustrated...
"It's not impossible to take you there, but some prerequisites must be met..." Lu Wan said calmly.
Hearing this, Shouhou and the others raised their heads again, their faces full of excitement, staring at Feng Qing with burning eyes, and responded in unison: "Any conditions are fine!"
"Don't be in a hurry to agree to it so quickly. What if we can't achieve it by then?" Lu Wan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at the people in front of him with interest.
"Captain, just say it. As long as it is within our ability, we will do our best!" Ye Wenxi was the first to express his opinion, and the others nodded in agreement.
"Very good. After you receive your rewards in the afternoon, you will prepare to enter the secret realm for training. When the training in the secret realm is over, I hope to see you challenge the leaderboard! Of course, during this period, I will leave a trace of spiritual consciousness on each of you in case of emergency. It may save your life at the critical moment." Lu Wan arranged the next tasks in an orderly manner.
"Boss, aren't you going with us?" The skinny monkey asked suspiciously. The others also looked at Feng Qing with confusion in their eyes.
"Well, I have to go back home first. This trip will take two months, and you only have two months left. After two months, you must at least reach the peak of the Spiritual Emperor realm. If you can achieve this goal... I will give each of you a reward." Lu Wan thought about the thousands of spirit beast eggs in his sea of consciousness, and stared at the people in front of him with a sharp gaze, feeling helpless. The Middle Realm is not a place where you can play around at will, even the Spiritual Immortals dare not easily set foot in it. And how can the strength of the peak of the Spiritual Emperor stand firm there... However, it is also good to give them a little hope. Maybe in this academy, they can create another miracle.
Hearing Lu Wan's words, everyone was shocked. The peak of the Spiritual Emperor! However, their eyes soon became firm, staring at each other, as if to say, "Let's fight!"
After finishing the conversation with Feng Qing, several people left...
Lu Wan shook his head helplessly and walked towards another group of people.
"I didn't expect that you are still as powerful as ever, boss! Even your ability to bluff people remains as good as before!" Jiang Baiqi said jokingly.
Lu Wan smiled, gently waved the folding fan in her hand, and then slowly sat down. She swept her eyes over the people in front of her, as if she was thinking about something. Then, she raised her hand and waved it, a ray of light flashed, and the whole courtyard was instantly covered by a layer of transparent barrier.
Mo Yan and others looked at Lu Wan in confusion, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Since you have already heard it, I will not waste any more words. For them, the task I gave them is to reach the peak realm of Spirit Emperor. As for you..." Lu Wan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at everyone carefully.
A feeling of being dominated surged in their hearts, and everyone couldn't help but look at Lu Wan nervously. At the same time, their hearts were full of anticipation, not knowing what kind of tasks they would face.
"Then let's reach the peak of spiritual immortality." Lu Wan said lightly.
However, this seemingly simple sentence was like a bombshell, causing a storm in everyone's heart. The peak of the Spiritual Immortal? This is not as easy to achieve as the peak of the Spiritual Emperor!
Everyone was shocked. The goal of reaching the peak of Spiritual Immortal was too far away for them. You know, it was already an extremely difficult process to rise from Spiritual Master to Spiritual Emperor, and to break through to the peak of Spiritual Immortal, it would take even more effort and time. This task was simply an insurmountable peak, which made people afraid.
"Boss... Boss, you are not kidding, are you?" Kong Sheng had a sad face and looked at Lu Wan bitterly as if he had eaten a hundred kilograms of Coptis chinensis, secretly complaining in his heart.
Lu Wan, however, acted nonchalant: "Do you think I'm joking?" His tone was calm, even with a hint of teasing.
Kong Sheng's face was filled with sorrow... Those people had a minimum standard, but how come it became the peak here! Mo Yan and Mu Yang were fine, but I was only at the second level of the Spiritual Emperor! It was really miserable...
"Don't worry, I'm in the same situation. Don't forget, I haven't practiced for many years. Although I have now recovered to the peak level of Spirit Master, I still lack spiritual power. So, these two months are not only time for them, but also time for us. If you don't want to go, it's okay to stay here..." Lu Wan glanced at the uninterested Kong Sheng with a smile, as if he could see through his inner thoughts.
Kong Sheng suddenly raised his head and said with an extremely firm look in his eyes: "Go! You must go!" He thought to himself, how could he not go? He must not let those little brats outdo him!
Mu Yang secretly watched Kong Sheng silently from the side, his eyes full of doting.
The others looked at each other and smiled knowingly...
At this time, Kong Sheng suddenly asked timidly: "So... Boss, will we also get rewards?" Although his voice was not loud, everyone present could hear it clearly.
Lu Wan nodded without hesitation and answered readily: "Of course there is, and you will definitely get your share!" His tone was full of confidence and affirmation, making people look forward to future rewards.
