“Xuanyu, I support the implementation of the plan because you’re not the same as Master Yi,” Liu Feng said. “You have a calm nature—I didn’t say this, I overheard Teacher Ji saying it. So if you say that there is a 60 to 70 percent probability, you must have taken into account the many uncertainties. In fact, you’re probably more confident than that. Am I right?”

Stunned, Lan Xuanyu said, “I can’t guarantee that.”

“How about we talk about the overall tactical plan first, then see how it goes?” Qian Lei said.

Lan Xuanyu nodded. He obviously had to tell his partners the complete plan because during the upcoming battle, they must execute every step perfectly in order to achieve the greatest results. At this moment, he suddenly thought about Ye Lingtong. If she hadn’t betrayed them, there would be an additional person around and they would be more confident. Further, with her in the plan, he could have helped her gain a lot of experience. They might have really been able to get out of there hand in hand!

“The plan is like this. Our target is that team with nine people. The first thing we must do is let Frenzie observe them from afar and find out which people are a part of which team…”

By the time Lan Xuanyu finished explaining his plan, Qian Lei and Liu Feng were filled with dumbstruckness.

“This doesn’t sound too bad. There’s no danger, so we just have to see how much we’ll reap. Perfect, Xuanyu!” Qian Lei said excitedly.

Liu Feng said in exasperation, “Are you courting death?”

“It’s not flawless,” Lan Xuanyu said, “so you need to be quite lucky.”

“Let’s do it,” Qian Lei said excitedly. “I think we have a very high chance. If it doesn’t work, we can only say that we were unlucky and can’t blame anyone.”

“Alright, get ready, then. Let the Gold Silk Ape know about our plan and have it prepare. We need it to work with us.”

The trio heatedly began preparing. They were somewhat nervous but also excited at the same time.

Bing Tianliang stood atop a mountain and looked afar, with hands behind his back. He was merely 12 years old, but he stood there like a javelin, giving one a rigid feeling.

The Ling Tian Academy uniform revealed his identity. His gaze was calm yet icy, and a tinge of burning madness would flash across every now and then.

The title of being top in Ling Tian Academy didn’t come from nowhere. In Ling Tian Academy, he was known as the genius among geniuses. Among his classmates, there were some particularly unruly and arrogant ones, but they were all very cautious in front of him. Nobody dared to challenge his position.

At least after he was ten-years-old, there wasn’t anyone who dared.

He wasn’t merely strong, but also possessed outstanding leadership skills and was a true talent in the eyes of the teachers. They even said that he was the most outstanding student in Ling Tian Academy’s history.

Due to his excellent conduct, he even received an offer of early admission into the Shrek Academy.

However, Bing Tianliang didn’t accept the offer and chose to take part in the qualifiers because he thought that it would be a very good chance to train. He was very confident that he would be able to get into Shrek Academy anyway. He wanted to use all the glory to send himself to the place of his dream. He wanted to reach the pinnacle of success through the path of Shrek Academy.

His journey had been smooth sailing, and he reaped results each time. That is, until not long ago, when the final results of the first round of qualifiers came out. When he saw that his team was not in first place, there was a change in Bing Tianliang’s state of mind.

He went away without speaking, covered in an icy aura.

He lost, he had lost. It was the first failure in his life, and he lost so badly. The disparity between their scores was huge, and his heart was filled with an indescribable emotion.

However, he told himself to calm down; one failure didn’t mean that he would fail forever. Furthermore, a score of 20,000 plus points definitely couldn’t have been achieved through strength alone. Everyone was merely 12 years old, after all, and there couldn’t be such a huge gap.

If it wasn’t strength then, what could it be? Luck or wits?

Bing Tianlian calmed down and analyzed the qualifier. He thought about many possibilities, and finally, he guessed that those 20,000 points came from killing the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons. Not one Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon, but two.

Back then, he and his team died when they were besieged by both Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons. It was impossible to fight against them. He guessed that the other party must have found a way to make those two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons fight against one another and were able to take advantage of the situation while both dragons were severely injured.

Coming to this, he actually really wanted to meet these three people from Heaven Luo Academy to ask them what really happened back there.

Ever since the start of the qualifier, he had been looking and looking for the opponents who had defeated him for the very first time.

It was also because of Bing Tianliang’s absolute dominance in school that he was able to pull the other teams to his side upon encountering each other, creating one body. He told them that as long as they abided by his arrangements, everyone would be able to reach the end of the qualifier.

Everything was going his way. Under his command, they had already destroyed 12 teams that were taking part in the qualifier and accumulated the most points. There was no doubt that these three teams should be able to make it in the top ten even if they relied on the points they had right now alone.

However, deep in Bing Tianliang’s heart, he kept waiting to encounter that team. All he wished for right now was to see them appear and determine the winner once and for all.

As to whether it was fair or not, he didn’t think much about having nine people against three. His father told him before that nothing is fair on the battleground, just live!

Killing your enemies and gaining the final victory is what a soldier should do.

Bing Tianliang’s iciness was inherited from his father.

There were only a few days left, yet that team was still not found. Was it because they weren’t in this area, or did they think that they had accumulated enough points and could hide?

This made Bing Tianliang a little disappointed. With such great results in the first round, why wouldn’t they aim to be the champion once again and gain the Shrek Academy’s attention?

“Big Bing,” a clear voice resounded.

Bing Tianliang turned around and saw a sweet young girl skipping over. After she saw him, she clearly became a little cautious, but the eagerness in her eyes increased.

“Shushi, what is it? I already told you not to call me that, you just have to learn from them, huh.” Bing Tianliang’s expression turned gentler. Big Bing was a nickname that his classmates gave him.

Liang Shushi, being very talented, was also from Ling Tian Academy’s Elite Class. Also, she grew up with Bing Tianliang, and they were both very close. Bing Tianliang was only a month older than her, and the two of them could be said to be childhood playmates.

Unfortunately, because of the incompatibility of their Martial Souls, they were split into separate teams. Liang Shushi had been very upset about this for a long time. She obviously wanted to be with her Big Bing.

Liang Shushi giggled, “But it’s so cute! What should I call you, then? Big brother Bing? Is that alright?”

Bing Tianliang looked somewhat helpless, “Go on, what happened?”

Liang Shushi smiled. “What else? We found another team and they seem quite strong. Let’s get ready to fight. Didn’t you say that you would go all out no matter who the opponent is?”

Bing Tianliang’s eyes lit up. “Could you identify who they are?”

“I don’t think they’re from Heaven Luo Academy,” Liang Shushi replied, “so they’re not who you’re looking for.”

Bing Tianliang frowned, slightly disappointed, but he still said, “Let’s go, get ready for battle.”

As a part of his strategic plan, no matter what sort of opponents they encountered, even if the opponents were very weak, they must attack in groups of three and come out victorious, using the least amount of effort and not giving the enemies a single chance.

The duo went down the mountain slope hand in hand. At the bottom, people started jumping out of the surrounding bushes and trees, and gathered.

“Big Bing!”

“Big Bing.”

Everyone greeted Bing Tianliang respectfully.

Bing Tianliang nodded towards them and said, “Same as before, get ready for battle.”

With over ten experiences previously, everyone worked very well together already. Although three people were injured, after some treatment, they were no longer in serious danger and only their strengths were slightly affected.

Nine people disappeared into the woods without a sound, and a new hunt was soon underway.

Bing Tianliang rose up and moved his body slightly in mid air, then disappeared. Two figures followed his pace and disappeared into the woods as well.

They didn’t notice the pair of eyes observing their every move on the gigantic branch a few hundred meters away. Only when the nine people completely disappeared did he quietly escape into the shadows.

In the Star Dou forest, three Soul Masters were moving fast.

They came from a school in Heaven Luo Planet called Long Feng Soul Master Academy. From their school, only the three of them made it into the top 100 of the first round.

In the academy, they were naturally well-known and were relatively confident in their strength. However, when the results of the qualifier came out, they found that they only landed at 60th place. This was quite a huge blow to these three people.

When entering the next round, these three people trembled with fear as if they were walking on thin ice. They finally lasted till this day, and their luck was not bad. They hunted a couple of soul beasts and even bumped into two teams that were both defeated and wounded. They took advantage of the situation and gained quite a few points. This also served to increase their courage.

There was only half a day left of this round, and they didn’t intend on venturing deeper into the Star Dou Forest now; the unknown danger was too scary. If they died, their points would be deducted, so they just wanted to hunt a few more soul beasts to increase their points then last till the end of the round. They felt that they would be able to enter the top ten with just a few more opportunities.

Just a while ago, they noticed an injured soul beast. Its injuries seemed quite severe; its arm, which was dripping with fresh blood, couldn’t move anymore. It was a Gold Silk Ape of at least 1,000 years! If they killed it, they would get quite a hefty amount of points. The three people quickly chased after it.

Among the three people from Long Feng Soul Master Academy, the leader was called Niu Yiwei. His speed wasn’t the fastest, but the other two people tried to be around him.

“Quick, chase after it! It’s injured and can’t move fast. It’s good to let it use up its energy like that too, so when it fights later, it won’t be able to resist much,” Niu Yiwei said excitedly.

The other two people naturally agreed because that Gold Silk Ape kept bleeding non-stop!

The magnificent Gold Silk Ape continued to wander and move around the woods. All of a sudden, its gold eyes moved and it pinched the dead little soul beast in its hand. After that, it squeezed a few droplets of blood on the ground and tossed the body afar. Its speed increased sharply as it sped into the depths of the woods.

Niu Yiwei’s team moved quickly, but the huge net of nine people from Ling Tian Academy enveloped them.
