With the speed of the Snake King and Ye Lin, finding Ye Tian was quite easy. They encountered no trouble along the way, arriving right by his side.
Of course, the two didn't arrive at the sa ti. Since Ye Lin had signed a Soul Contract with Ye Tian, it was naturally easier for him to find his way. The Snake King appeared about an hour after Ye Lin reached Ye Tian's side.
"Big Brother, a lot of instructors from the academy ca. The issue you were worried about should be resolved. By the way, did you run into any incidents like that along the way?" Ye Lin asked Ye Tian.
"Maybe we just got lucky and didn't run into any. Looks like you did, though. You killed them, right? Did any of the instructors see you?" Ye Tian asked.
"I killed two people. Although they hadn't done anything too excessive yet, they were close. A few instructors spotted , but I didn't engage them and just flew away. I ca to find you to avoid any unpleasantness," Ye Lin said.
"That's for the best. Thanks for your trouble, Ye Lin. The ti isn't right for you to reveal yourself to everyone, so I'm sorry you have to be put in this position," Ye Tian said.
"Big Brother, I understand. I don't bla you! In that case, I'll enter your body now," Ye Lin said.
Without any hesitation, a purple light flashed from Ye Lin's body, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished. Needless to say, he had entered Ye Tian's body.
The Snake King then glanced at everyone and said, "Young Master, if you're in danger, you must let out to help. My strength may be limited, but I can still be of use to you! I have no regrets about following you, Young Master!"
"Snake King, I understand your loyalty! I'll definitely be counting on you in the future, so I won't say any more. We have a long road ahead; you're not getting away that easily! How about you enter the Storage Ring for now?" Ye Tian said.
"Very well! But Young Master, you must take care of yourself too! If a true ergency arises, I would gladly give my life. Please, do not worry about my safety!" the Snake King said.
Ye Tian nodded slightly, deeply moved. 'To have soone as loyal as the Snake King following is a blessing, an achievent in itself.'
"Alright. I promise," Ye Tian said slowly. Everyone knew the weight his words carried.
In the blink of an eye, the Snake King's body shrank into a small snake. With a single thought, Ye Tian drew him into the Storage Ring. Once again, only Ye Tian's group of four remained.
Ye Tian and the three won continued onward, slaying a constant stream of Demon Beasts and reaping a rich harvest. Ye Feifei and Qin Xiaowan were especially amazed by the graceful Martial Skills Zhang Xinlan displayed while fighting.
Just then, Guan Tianshui's voice suddenly bood from the sky, "The wilderness activity will end in three days. All students, please exit the Demon Beast Region as soon as possible. These next three days are your last chance to slay Demon Beasts. Everyone, do your best!
"Students are forbidden from killing one another, and male students are forbidden from preying on female students. Anyone discovered doing so will be executed without rcy! Rember this well!"
Soon, Guan Tianshui's voice faded. The four of them were montarily stunned, with Ye Feifei and Qin Xiaowan looking particularly astonished.
"That was Dean Guan's voice! The Demon Beast Region is enormous. How did he manage to project his voice across the entire area? It's truly astonishing!" Ye Feifei exclaid.
Ye Tian was also a little confused, but then he rembered that Guan Tianshui was a Five Vein Realm expert, so he would naturally be capable of such a feat. 'Still, the Demon Beast Region is imnse. The ability to cover the entire area with just his voice is terrifying to consider.'
He figured Zhang Xinlan might know how it was done, so he looked to her, hoping she could explain.
Zhang Xinlan naturally understood Ye Tian's unspoken question and smiled. "Experts of the Five Veins can use spatial principles to gather sound in the air. Then, by using a vast amount of Spiritual Power to create vibrations in space itself, they can broadcast the sound everywhere.
"However, the energy cost is trendous. Just by saying those few sentences, Dean Guan must have consud more than half of his Spiritual Power. I'm sure he wouldn't have done it if it weren't a true ergency."
"That incredible? It seems they finally realize how serious this is. We have three days left, so let's give it our all and slay so more Demon Beasts. Since we're here, we have to get a decent ranking. It would be too embarrassing otherwise!" Ye Tian said.
"You can forget about us; we haven't killed that many Demon Beasts. But you, Brother Tian, you've slain so many! We're sure you can get a top spot!" said Ye Feifei.
"Have you forgotten who you're talking about? This is the guy who killed a Tier Five Demon Beast while only at the Three Veins. It would be a real sha if he didn't get first place!" Qin Xiaowan chid in.
"Xiaowan, I don't want anyone else to know about killing a Tier Five Demon Beast," Ye Tian said quickly. "If certain people learn of my true strength, it'll cause a lot of trouble. It's better to keep a low profile." He really didn't want this incident to expose him to people with ulterior motives.
"I get it. Don't worry! Of course I won't tell anyone," Qin Xiaowan said with a laugh. As she glanced at Ye Tian, she felt sothing indescribable.
The four of them continued slaying Demon Beasts as they made their way toward the entrance. They chatted and laughed along the journey, and the animosity Ye Feifei and Qin Xiaowan felt toward Zhang Xinlan had diminished considerably.
After all, there was no reason to be at odds with a beauty like Zhang Xinlan. Besides, they had to show Ye Tian so respect. Still, it was impossible for them to beco truly close just yet.
anwhile, several of the academy's instructors were far from calm, Guan Tianshui among them. At that mont, they were standing before the corpse of an Earth-Split Demon Turtle.
"What kind of Demon Beast is this? Its body is enormous! This thing must have been powerful," one of the instructors remarked.
"This was a Tier Four Demon Beast, at least. Look at how the ground around it is torn to shreds. The battle must have been incredibly fierce. What I don't get is which student could have done this. Could it have been the academy's top ranker, Chen Shaoyu?" another instructor comnted.
Guan Tianshui carefully examined the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's corpse and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary Earth Attribute Demon Beast, the Earth-Split Demon Turtle. And the fact that this horn has appeared on its head ans it had already broken through to Tier Five.
"To slay a Tier Five Demon Beast... I doubt even any of you could do that! Don't tell a true genius has erged in our academy, soone who's already broken through to the Five Veins? That seems highly unlikely!"
"Not necessarily," another instructor said gravely. "A short while ago, I encountered soone incredibly powerful. They didn't feel entirely human, though. I only saw them from afar, but I could sense their strength was definitely at the Five Vein level."
