2075: To Win the First and the Second Prize

To Win the First and the Second Prize

After about fifteen minutes, Leng Shaoting finally killed the two demonic monsters. He took out a fourth-level magic crystal from a demonic monster this time.1

In another three minutes, Gu Ning also killed two demonic monsters and took out a third-level magic crystal from one of them.

However, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning didn't go to help Mo Qilin afterwards. Although it was difficult for Mo Qilin to win the fight, he was likely to defeat the demonic monster after a while.

After another five minutes, Mo Qilin killed the demonic monster with great effort, but there was no magic crystal.

It disappointed Mo Qilin when he found no magic crystal after spending so much energy on killing this demonic monster, but he soon accepted it. After all, his aim was to put his skills into use by coming into the misty forest, so the prizes weren't important.

Seeing his disappointed expression, Gu Ning said, "Mo Qilin, I think I should be honest with you. We came here to win the first and second prize, so we might give you fewer magic crystals later, but we'll make sure that you can get into the top 10. After the game is over, we'll send you some high level magic crystals for your cultivation. I hope you can understand us."

Participants could take the magic crystals as their own after the competition was over, because they had risked their lives for them. Tiandaozong wouldn't take the magic crystals away, so Gu Ning had the right and freedom to give Mo Qilin some magic crystals when the game was over.

Knowing that, Mo Qilin explained at once in case Gu Ning misunderstood him. "Senior Qing He, I came here simply to put my skills into use. I don't care about the prizes, so please don't misunderstand me."

"If you can't win a prize at the top of the list while being in our team, it'll be humiliating!" said Gu Ning.

"Well, thanks, Senior Qing He." Since Gu Ning said that, Mo Qilin could only thank her because he really wanted high level magic crystals to improve himself.

…

Dongfang Ziyu and Jing Yunyan were also walking deeper because they wanted to get magic crystals at a high level too.

After they walked deeper, they met a third-level demonic monster.

Because both Dongfang Ziyu and Jing Yunyan were in the Golden Core Stage, it was easy for them to deal with a third-level demonic monster and it was done within a dozen minutes. However, compared with Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, they took a lot more time and strength.

Dongfang Ziyu had good luck and got a third-level magic crystal, but Jing Yunyan got nothing. He was so mad that he even wanted to beat the demonic monster again.

He vented his anger on this demonic monster without a magic crystal. He ached to win, so he didn't have patience.

Half of the time had passed, and he only had two second-level magic crystals now.

Although he didn't think other participants would have more magic crystals than him, they might not be worse than him, so Jing Yunyan felt a sense of crisis.

Along with Jing Yunyan were people arranged by the Jing family. None of them were at a higher level than Jing Yunyan, so they couldn't help him, but they still had to follow him.

At least they could do something for him.

They were sent here by the Jing family, but they were slightly reluctant to do it because their task was to help Jing Yunyan win the best prize.

Even if they got magic crystals on their own, the magic crystals wouldn't be theirs.

Jing Yunyan had a magic crystal, but it was taken out by other people after they killed a demonic monster. However, it went to Jing Yunyan in the end.

Even though Jing Yunyan could get this magic crystal without their help, it was different when he directly took it away from then.

They were unwilling to be his teammates, but they had to listen to the Jing family's order.

Yin Ruyan and her team weren't as lucky as Dongfang Ziyu or Jing Yunfei, but she successfully got three magic crystals after killing nearly twenty demonic monsters. One magic crystal was at the first level, while the other two were at the second level.

She wasn't satisfied with the levels, so she and her teammates went deeper into the forest as well.

In addition to Leng Shaoting, Dongfang Ziyu, and Jing Yunyan who were in the Golden Core Stage, there were also three other cultivators in the same stage, but they were only in the primary stage, so Leng Shaoting was still the strongest among them. He was at the peak of the Golden Core Stage.

One of the other three cultivators in the Golden Core Stage was from Tiandaozong, and the other two were from small families of other cities.

No one had heard of their names before. Leng Shaoting was also a new face in the game this time, so their appearance was a big threat to Dongfang Ziyu and the other cultivators.

They also had teammates, and they got two or three magic crystals too. However, they didn't have all the magic crystals because they weren't selfish and wouldn't take all the magic crystals as their own. Whoever killed the demonic monsters could get the magic crystals.

The cultivators in the Golden Core Stage walked deeper into the forest in order to get higher level magic crystals.

Unfortunately, not every cultivator could finish the game. In three hours, there were already four cultivators who broke their number cards and went back to the square of Tiandaozong. All of them were seriously injured.

They were at lower levels, so they weren't able to defeat the demonic monsters and were injured. In order to survive, they could only break their number cards and leave the game.

Everyone was worried about their family members, especially Jing Yaorong, Dongfang He, and Yin Wandian, because they wanted their grandchildren to win more than anyone else. However, several new cultivators in the Golden Core Stage showed up this year, which made them feel less confident. They were very worried now.

Baili Qifeng understood that Baili Zongxue was at a common level, so he didn't expect her to win, but he hoped that she could safely leave the forest.

Yun Hongqing had the same thought as Baili Qifeng. He didn't expect Mo Qilin to win a good prize and only hoped that he would be safe.

Anyway, he believed that Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would treat Mo Qilin well if they had many magic crystals.

Only Shangguan Yang stayed calm, because he wasn't worried about Leng Shaoting's safety at all. Instead, he believed that Leng Shaoting's team would win.
