Chapter 1357 – Fly Away

The twins could be said to be one of the first groups to obtain two marks. However, the thing was that the pool they went to obtain the second mark was far from the second level’s exit, which was the reason why there were already three other groups with their second marks. They simply got their marks somewhere nearer to the exit. 

Those three groups couldn’t help but discuss after seeing Rean’s group. “What should we do? Should we kill them?”

The Void Tempering Realm elder of the Lanqueas Sect group, a man called Yuan, said in response, “They are just kids, so we can kill them easily. However, the marks will be given to the ones who are closest to them and don’t have the two marks.”

The Croste Clan’s guardian elder nodded in agreement. “Yuan is right. That means the marks will jump to the other cultivators who have already made their way out of the second level. It won’t come for us since we’re already in the Void Tempering Realm,” the elder said, who was known as Xintari.

The elder from the Jix Organization, Papola, didn’t seem to care, though. “Hmph! So what if we kill the rest? It’s better than letting the secret escape. Only our top ten powers should know about the marks. Besides, they’ll all die once the third wave comes. We would be just anticipating their outcome.”

Yuan shook his head after hearing that. “Since they were able to kill the Dragon Tail Brotherhood’s group, they might have some card capable of posing a threat. Don’t forget our main objective is to guarantee our disciples’ safe passage into the second plane.”

“What if they are also selected and are teleported outside after a week? Wouldn’t the secret be at risk of being spread?” Papola asked soon after, still preferring to attack the twins’ group. It’s just that she was also apprehensive. She didn’t want to do it alone, even though her cultivation was much higher. She also got to the same conclusion as Yuan regarding the twins’ group, who might have killed their opponents and possibly a Void Tempering Realm elder of the Dragon Tail Brotherhood.

However, one of the disciples of the Croste Clan mentioned, “Now that I think about it, I think I saw a group from the Dragon Tail Brotherhood who didn’t have their marks back at the entrance of the second level.”

Yuan, Xintari, and Papola immediately looked at him as one of them asked, “Is that true?”

“Yes,” the disciple replied, nodding. “It was Celso’s group, but only Celso had the ice-blue Dragon Wing Mark. The other four members of his group didn’t have their marks. Look at that group. They have exactly four marks with them. However, Celso’s group was entirely alive, and there were no elders dead from the Dragon Tail Brotherhood either. I don’t think they killed anyone. Instead, they seem to have stolen the marks. Most likely, they reached the Dragon Pools at the same time as Celso’s group.”

One of the Lanqueas Sect disciples found it to be strange, though. “If they got there at the same time as Celso’s group, the dragon in the pool would still distribute the marks to those with the highest talents. Then, does that mean the four members of this black and white bird group are more talented than the other four members of Celso’s group?”

At that moment, everyone narrowed their eyes. They all knew that only the top disciples of each power came for the Lost Star Selection. They were the cream of the crop when it came to talent in the entire Lanqueas Continent. How could four members of Celso’s group be worse than them? “Just who are those guys?”

Nevertheless, that news was enough for Yuan, Xintari, and Papola to understand that there was probably no risk involved. “Let’s go check them out.”

All that conversation happened with Divine Sense, so just a few seconds had passed since Rean’s group appeared. Before they could have Kentucky fly out of this place, those three Void Tempering Realm elders blocked their path. Rean’s group didn’t seem the least bit worried, though. “Oh, it’s the elders of the Lanqueas Sect, Croste Clan, and Jix Organization. Is there something we can help you with?” Rean asked with a beaming smile, giving off a weird feeling to those elders.

However, Yuan quickly recovered before asking, “Where did you get your Dragon Marks?”

Hurio, Lilia, and Roan simply let Rean do the talking as always. “Where else? From the Dragon Pools, of course. Oh, that also reminds me of one thing. What are the other nine beast marks? Can you tell me more about them?” Rean asked in response with a curious expression, looking at the disciples of the three powerhouses.

Yuan narrowed his eyes after hearing that. Only an idiot wouldn’t notice that Rean’s group didn’t seem to be concerned with their presence at all. “These marks were reserved for our Lanqueas Continent’s top ten powers. You shouldn’t be carrying them.”

Rean shrugged his shoulders as he replied, “We both know that’s not true. The dragon in the pool mentioned that only the five cultivators it finds to be the most worthy would receive them. It didn’t mention anything about having to be part of the top ten powers of the Lanqueas Continent.”

The three elders’ expressions turned dark after that. In any case, Rean didn’t care. “Besides, you should all know that only by killing a beast mark owner can the mark be transferred to some other cultivator in the surroundings. Could it be that you seniors want us to kill ourselves? I’m sure you wouldn’t be asking for something like that, right?”

Papola snorted in response, replying, “Obviously. However, we can simply kill you and everyone here so that the marks won’t have anywhere to go. They would then return to the dragons in their pools and would be distributed in the next Lost Star Selection as always.”

“Oh, is that so?” Rean’s smile only became even brighter after that. “Then, I wish very much to see how you will do that.” Soon after, Rean patted Kentucky, telling him, “Let’s go. We don’t need to pay attention to them..” With that, Kentucky ignored the elders and began to fly away once more.
