Chapter 102. An Interdiate Gift Pack Yields a Supre-grade Reward. System, You Really Ca Through!
After Jiang Yichen and Su Linyu saw Shen Qingyue off, they gathered around the Sleep God with thoughtful expressions.
As he continued cultivating the divine-grade cultivation art, the Grand Dream Scripture, he was becoming harder and harder to suppress after falling asleep.
At this rate, sothing was bound to happen sooner or later.
“Boss, why are you all looking at like that?” the Sleep God asked, scratching at his bird’s nest of hair in confusion.
After that nap just now, he was no longer sleepy.
Jiang Yichen frowned. “This can’t go on. I can’t stay by your side at all tis to suppress you after you fall asleep.”
Su Linyu and the others also nodded. Even Martial Gods had turned serious in front of the Sleep God’s strength. He really did need to get this under control.
The Sleep God sighed helplessly. “Then what should I do?”
Jiang Yichen thought for a mont, but no good solution ca to mind.
In the end, he could only open his system space and turn his gaze toward the Interdiate Gift Pack.
I’ll give it a try. Let’s see whether it can give sothing useful.
“System, open the gift pack.”
[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained: Supre-grade · Dream-Entering Stone.]
Huh?
Jiang Yichen froze for a mont, then smiled.
Life really was full of surprises.
For it to yield a Supre-grade item from this was truly sothing else.
The Dream-Entering Stone.
Jiang Yichen silently repeated the na in his heart and opened its description.
[Supre-grade · Dream-Entering Stone: When worn, the Dream-Entering Stone allows the user to enter dreams while maintaining clear consciousness, dispelling any interference from gods.
Note: It can take effect once per day.]
The description was extrely simple, yet it left Jiang Yichen deeply astonished.
Putting aside how absurdly fitting the reward was, it was probably the slacker system deliberately trying to put him in a good mood.
But the phrase “dispelling any interference from gods” made him fall into deep thought.
Could it be that when the Sleep God killed people in his sleep, it was because a “god” was interfering with and controlling his body?
In his previous life, when the five major regions of Huaxia had been facing violent beast tide uprisings, he had heard legends about gods appearing to wipe out those beast tides.
But those had only ever been legends.
Did gods really exist?
Even as the young master of the Jiang family, he had never co into contact with such things in his previous life.
Jiang Yichen shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He took the Dream-Entering Stone out of the system space.
“Wear this stone. The next ti you fall asleep, you’ll be able to control your own body.”
The mont he said that, all five of them revealed looks of intense curiosity and stared fixedly at the purple stone in his hand.
The Sleep God’s eyes widened even more. With trembling hands, he cradled the stone and asked in shock, “Boss, can this stone really let control my body after I fall asleep?”
Jiang Yichen nodded. “Of course. But try not to sleep casually. This stone only works once a day.”
“Okay, okay. I’ll rember that. I can finally control myself after I fall asleep.” The Sleep God looked overwheld with emotion, and a deep bitterness rose in his eyes.
It seed that, while asleep, he had done many terrible things.
Jiang Yichen patted him on the shoulder, happy for him.
“Boss, I really don’t know how to repay you. I’m clumsy with words, and I’ve never been to school. All I have is this life of mine.” The Sleep God looked at him with absolute seriousness, his tone firm.
Jiang Yichen smiled and shook his head. “Train hard. Winning the league will be enough.”
The Sleep God nodded gratefully.
Lei Zhen slung an arm around the Sleep God’s shoulders. “Kid, you can finally get a good night’s sleep from now on. That’s been your wish all along.”
The Sleep God had been with the Phoenix Team for four years, and he had often begged Lei Zhen to shock him once to keep him alert.
Over ti, the two of them had gradually beco close.
Aside from Captain Huang, Lei Zhen was the Sleep God’s only friend.
Everyone else was afraid of him and did not dare get close.
But the Sleep God’s wish had always been a simple one.
He just wanted to sleep soundly.
Looking at the stone in his hand, the Sleep God slowly curled his lips into a smile. His nose stung as he said, “Yeah... I can finally get a proper night’s sleep.”
“But I can’t waste it whenever I want. I have to save it for a crucial mont.”
Unable to contain his curiosity, Tang Long asked, “Sleep God, your martial talent is really strange. Do you know anything about it?”
To be honest, when the Sleep God was awake, he could not even beat Tang Long.
But once asleep, he could pin Lei Zhen down and pound him.
Tang Long had truly never seen such a wildly contradictory martial talent before.
Su Linyu and Chu Xingchen also looked curious.
The Sleep God was silent for a long ti. His gaze was complicated, as though he were hiding many things.
“I... I don’t know either...” he said haltingly.
With his powerful spiritual perception, Jiang Yichen sensed fear in the Sleep God.
But what exactly was he afraid of?
The Sleep God had never spoken of his background. He probably had his own difficulties.
“All right.” Tang Long did not press any further. Instead, he said guiltily, “Sleep God, sorry about that. After you beat up last ti, I was actually pretty scared of you.”
The Sleep God scratched at his bird’s nest hair. “That’s normal. Luckily the Boss is here. eting the Boss really was the greatest blessing of my life.”
“Enough flattering .” Jiang Yichen took out five jade bottles. “Co on. You’re all taking pills today.”
The mont those words were spoken, the smiles on all five faces vanished instantly, replaced by miserable expressions.
They each took a jade bottle, their faces full of hesitation.
“Ah! Brother Yichen, it was supposed to be seven hundred pills. Why did you give eight hundred?!” Tang Long cried out.
Jiang Yichen rely responded with a calm, “Oh. I saw that you eat a lot, so I gave you more.”
Tang Long looked as though he wanted to cry but had no tears. “Brother Yichen, having you in my life really is my blessing!”
Looking at her own six hundred pills, Su Linyu secretly chuckled.
Jiang Yichen patted Tang Long on the shoulder. “Eat more. Tomorrow, we still have to fight the Thunder Team.”
Tang Long looked as though his soul had left his body.
...
The next day, at the headquarters of the Huaxia Team League.
“Welco, everyone, to the Huaxia Team League’s thirtieth season. This is the semifinal match between the Spark Team and the Thunder Team.”
“That’s right. The Spark Team is unquestionably the dark horse of this league. I believe they’ll crush their way through the semifinal as well.”
The male host smiled. “That may not be the case. The league rules were revised at the last minute. The highest-grade Magical Artifact that participating teams can use is now only seventh-rank.”
“I’m afraid Spark’s strategy of crushing everyone through superior equipnt won’t work anymore.”
The audience in the arena had already heard about the league’s rule change.
“Haha, the Spark Team finally got sanctioned, didn’t they? They kept crushing every match with their equipnt. There was no fairness in it at all.”
“Exactly. Without Ninth-rank Magical Artifacts, I’d like to see how Spark can win with three people only in the fifth realm.”
“The Thunder Team was a top powerhouse that ranked third in the previous tournant. Their entire roster is in the sixth realm, all Grandmasters. Even though their captain left for Spark, they’re still terrifyingly strong.”
“...”
Hearing the hosts’ words, Jiang Feng, seated in the stands, curled his lips into a faint smile and turned his gaze toward Jiang Yichen in the opposite spectator section.
Now then, without Ninth-rank Magical Artifacts, let’s see how you win.
That position of heir is mine for the taking!
“The semifinal match: Spark Team versus Thunder Team.”
The host’s voice rang out with excitent. Seeing that both teams were already standing in the arena and prepared, he declared, “The match begins!”
