C40 The Shocked Crowd!
"800 empirical value? That much?"
Even Ji Wuyan was shocked by the system's information. From the looks of it, he might be able to break through to the Second Layer in less than a day.
" I never thought that he would drop a spiritual crystal! "
Looking at the number on the bottom right corner of the blue crystal in his storage space, Ji Wuyan couldn't help but smile.
Looking at the dead Ji Batian on the ground, Ji Wuyan thought for a while and searched his body. Maybe he had news about his father.
However, it was obvious that he thought too much.
Other than some gold notes, a cultivation book called Black Demon Palm, and a black token, there was nothing else on Ji Batian.
However, just as Ji Wuyan picked up the black token and was about to check it out, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Main Mission 2: Save Father and destroy Netherworld Palace. Mission reward: 50,000 empirical value. Mission Punishment: Reduce cultivation level by one realm.'"
Outside the Redbud Mountain Range.
Most of the disciples had already returned, and there were all kinds of discussions going on.
"Those Scarlet Flame Rabbits are so hard to catch! I only caught one in four hours. It's over now. I definitely won't be able to make it!"
"Yeah, I only caught two. I'm afraid only those who have reached the Sixth Layer of Strength have the qualifications!"
"I wonder who among these people will be selected."
...
Gradually, more and more disciples returned from the mountain range.
"Zhao Yan, 26 Scarlet Flame Rabbit Ears, a total of 13." On the counting table, an elder counted the number in his bag and shouted loudly.
As soon as he said that, the discussions below boiled like boiling water.
"Wow, thirteen, that's amazing! As expected of one of the top geniuses of the Zhao Family!"
"That's right. Right now, other than those few people who haven't returned yet, let's count him as the most!"
"Tsk tsk, thirteen. How awesome is that?!"
...
Hearing the praises around him, the corner of Zhao Yan's mouth couldn't help but raise up high. He had a smug look on his face. The reason why he was able to catch so many... It was mainly because he had recently made a breakthrough in his strength... Now that he had broken through to the Seventh Layer, he was comparable to the number one genius of the Zhao family, Zhao Danfeng. It was not much different.
Even so, he couldn't help but look in the direction of the disciples of the Ji family. He was trying to find someone who had humiliated him in the past. He wanted to see the result of that person.
Unfortunately, after looking back and forth twice, he did not find that figure and could not help but feel slightly disappointed.
Roughly two minutes later, the figure of a beautiful girl appeared in everyone's line of sight.
"It's Zhao Danfeng!" Someone who saw her exclaimed.
"It's her. Hehe, I wonder how much she has hunted? "
"It should be quite a lot. No matter what, she is the number one genius girl of the Zhao family."
"Now their Zhao family is going to be awe-inspiring!"
...
Zhao Danfeng came to the Clear Point Platform and placed a package on the table. After the elder did the inventory check, he smiled at Zhao Danfeng. Nodding his head, he said loudly, "Zhao Danfeng, thirty Crimson Flame Rabbit Ears, a total of fifteen."
"Tsk tsk, as expected of a genius girl, she actually caught fifteen!"
"This is really amazing!"
"She's so beautiful and has great talent. I really don't know why Ji Wuyan wants to divorce her. "
"Yeah, I don't get it!"
...
Zhao Danfeng's expression turned ugly when she heard the gossips around her. She looked in the direction of the Ji family and then looked at the Redbud Mountain Range. Her eyes were filled with hatred. She clenched her fists and bit her red lips, "Ji Wuyan, I will make you pay back the humiliation that the young lady of Japan has suffered in the future!"
She didn't even think about how she had treated this marriage.
However, some people were always selfish. They would always blame everything on others.
Another three minutes slowly passed and a few more figures appeared in the Redbud Mountain Range. This person was handsome and wore blue embroidered clothes. Behind him were two followers.
"It's Sun Dong from the Sun family!"
"He has finally come out. I wonder how many he has hunted?"
"There should be at least ten of them. After all, he is a Seventh Layer."
Sun Dong placed the items on the stage. He looked at the elder with a proud expression and said, "Elder, you can count them!"
The elder nodded his head lightly and began to count the items. The number of ears on the table increased. In the blink of an eye, it had piled up to the height of a small hill. After that, he looked around the crowd and said in a loud voice, "Sun Dong, 48 rabbit ears, a total of 24 ears."
Hearing this, all the disciples present were shocked.
"What, 24?!"
"Too formidable! There were actually twenty-four of them, nine more than Zhao Danfeng. "
"Unbelievable! How did he do it?"
Hearing the flattery around him, Sun Dong's face was full of confidence. He walked proudly to the disciples of Ji family. He glanced at them and sneered, "What's wrong? Is that trash Ji Wuyan not back yet? The time for the competition to end was almost up. One should know that once the competition ended, no matter how many Scarlet Flame Rabbits he hunts, it's useless! "
"Mr Wuyan will definitely come back on time!"
At this moment, Ji Wufeng's tender voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh, is that so? However, it didn't matter even if he came back. After all, he was the first in the preliminaries. I, Sun Dong, am definitely going to win, haha... " Sun Dong laughed carelessly and left, as if he was afraid that no one would know that he had hunted a Scarlet Flame Rabbit's ear at most.
Time passed bit by bit. Those who were supposed to come back had already returned, but Ji Wuyan was nowhere to be seen. This made the elders of Ji family anxious.
If Ji Wuyan failed the preliminaries this time, the Ji family would suffer a great loss. Out of the 16 spots, only three of them had been selected. Originally, with the strength of the Ji family, five of them should have no problem.
However, for some reason, Ji Batian didn't allow his son to participate, which caused them to lose a candidate. If anything happened to Ji Wuyan now, Ji family's reputation would plummet.
The elders looked at the pocket watch in their hands, then nodded at the elder who was counting. The elder nodded in response, then turned around and shouted at the crowd, "It's time..."
"Wait, someone seems to have come out!" Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
The elder was stunned and looked in the direction of the Redbud Mountain Range. A thin figure slowly walked out.
"It's Ji Wuyan!"
"Great, he finally came out!"
"He's been inside for so long. I wonder how many Scarlet Flame Rabbits he has hunted."
...
"Tsk, he actually caught up!" Sun Dong spat a mouthful of water to the side unhappily.
He had been defeated by his opponent here previously. Now that he saw so many people looking forward to Ji Wuyan, Sun Dong's mood naturally wasn't any better.
Ji Wuyan came to the Clear Point Platform and placed the luggage on the platform. He smiled at the elder and said, "I'm sorry, I encountered an accident in the middle of the journey."
The elder nodded and did not say anything. He opened the bag and counted. "Two, four, six..."
"Forty-eight!"
Forty-eight Crimson Flame Rabbit ears were the same as Sun Dong's.
"Haha, forty-eight ears, the same as that arrogant guy!"
"This is great. There's no need to look at Sun Dong's expression anymore!"
"That's right. Isn't it just that we arrived here a step earlier? What's there to be proud of?"
The disciples of Ji family laughed heartily and mocked him without showing any signs of weakness.
Sun Dong's facial expression became extremely ugly as well. In fact, only he himself knew how much he had hunted this time. He had only caught so many of them because he had followed his two subordinates.
Initially, he thought that he could act arrogantly this time and strike Ji Wuyan's arrogance down. However, he didn't expect that his opponent's harvest would be equivalent to the result of the three of them working together.
"Hmph, so what? This young master is still tied with him in the first place." Sun Dong was still unwilling to be outdone, and he said with disdain.
"This..." Ji Wuyan looked at him and then looked at the elder. He rubbed his nose and asked, "Elder, does one ear count?"
As he spoke, Ji Wuyan took out another Crimson Flame Rabbit's ear from one pocket and placed it on the stage. Only the red ear was very eye-catching.
... ""
"..."
Everyone fell silent!
"Why do you still have one?" The elder asked speechlessly.
"I accidentally fell into the river, so I dropped some. I only found one. I was going to put it in. However, after thinking about it, it didn't seem to be of much use. So I didn't put it in. But now... "
His tone paused. Ji Wuyan glanced at Sun Dong and smiled indifferently." It seems like someone is provoking me. I want to ask if this ear counts. "
"This..."
The elder hesitated for a moment. After discussing with the other elders, he finally announced.
"Ji Wuyan, 49 Crimson Flame Rabbit Ears, a total of 25."
When the Ji family disciples heard this result, they immediately cheered.
"Haha, I was just saying that we would be tied for first place, but now, why is it the second place?"
"Now, I think that kid still has something to say?"2
"Hmph!"
When Sun Dong heard the voices around him, his face turned as red as a pig's liver. He immediately snorted coldly and turned his head away, not saying another word.
At the same time, on a cliff not far away, there was a handsome young man about fourteen or fifteen years old. When he saw Ji Wuyan coming out of the Redbud Mountain Range, his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible? How could this be? That trash is actually still alive? Father personally took action, how could he fail?"
If it was Ji Wuyan who saw this man, he would certainly be shocked, because this man was Ji Batian's son, Ji Wushuang.
He hadn't seen this man from the beginning, but he didn't expect him to be hiding here!
