265: Powerful cards in the treasure chest!

“But they were only Jiang Lou ( Jianglou) strength, and you let them escape?”

Dong Yumeng looked at the setting sun outside and said indifferently.

“I don’t know which academy they’re from, but they have a lot of tricks up their sleeves.” Zhao Gongming also said indifferently.

“However, even if they escaped from us, they can’t run too far.”

A mechanical Card Master’s hand flashed with purple light, and a small reconnaissance camera appeared in the air.

“Ahead is a plain. To enter the safe zone, they basically have to cross this plain. It’s already very good that they’ve made it this far with their strength. They definitely won’t reach the next safe zone.”

After the mechanical Card Master finished speaking, he turned to look at Dong Yumeng: “It’s almost time to set off.”

“Mm, let’s go!”

Dong Yumeng nodded, and the three of them headed directly towards the safe zone.

“Looks like our luck is good.”

Seeing Jiang Yuan and the others successfully escape, Li Yueying finally breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Guan Chutian with a slight hint of provocation and said.

However, Guan Chutian did not speak, she just pursed her lips and continued to watch Jiang Yuan and the others on the screen.

“But honestly, even if he successfully escaped this time, what about later?”

Miao Xinghuo lowered his head, rubbing his forehead, not wanting to speak, while Yu Chengtian on the other side didn’t care at all, rubbing his bald head as he spoke.

“You know, the place they’ll pass through later is a plain, where even the grass isn’t knee-high. How will they hide?”

“Just relying on Earth Walking Technique, there’s no way to cross such a long stretch of grassland.”

“Who knows? Maybe geniuses have their own genius ideas.” Guan Chutian smiled slightly, teasing again.

“You don’t need to worry about that. It doesn’t matter if they can’t pass, after all, they’re only Jiang Lou ( Jianglou) strength. It’s already very good that they’ve made it this far, unlike some people’s… hmph.”

Li Yueying snorted proudly, feeling very pleased.

As expected, Guan Chutian’s expression was also not good at this moment.

“Indeed, it’s good, but how will you cross that plain next?”

The four Vice Principals were openly and covertly fighting on the stage, while Wang Boqing, who had already been eliminated in the plaza, looked at Jiang Yuan on the screen with a smile.

“You say, how will he cross that plain?”

“You don’t need to worry about that.”

Mu Qianshan was expressionless. After being eliminated, he was clearly not in a very good mood.

Especially since he had just come out and run into Wang Boqing, who they had eliminated.

And Wang Boqing seemed to be like a dog-skin plaster, constantly sticking to his side, asking him all sorts of questions.

“If you were to follow your previous idea of turning into a small bird and flying across the sky, that might not work.”

As Wang Boqing spoke, he looked up at another screen.

At the same time, Guan Chutian also looked up at the same screen.

On the screen, above the plain, a crow with black mechanical feathers was hidden in the clouds.

Around the black mechanical crow, there were also many mechanical devices.

......

......

“Finally, we’ve reached the edge of the Ruined City. It wasn’t easy.”

The Ruined City was still very large. The speed of Earth Walking Technique was not slow, but with cooldown time, Jiang Yuan and the others still waited until after sunset before arriving at the edge of the Ruined City.

“Should we just walk? Visibility is lower at night, so passing through the sky should be a better way.” Shi Ji looked at Jiang Yuan, seemingly curious as to why Jiang Yuan still hadn’t made any moves.

“Wait a moment, no rush.”

Jiang Yuan smiled, and after waiting a few minutes, when Cute Head’s cooldown ended, two purple-quality cards appeared in Jiang Yuan’s hand.

Cute Head’s duration was one hour, with a ten-minute cooldown.

Coupled with the ability of [Deng Chao] to amplify Cute Head’s effect, the duration also increased to about an hour and a half, while the cooldown remained ten minutes.

And with the increased effect, Jiang Yuan could sense all crises targeting him in advance during this hour and a half.

In other words, during this hour and a half, Jiang Yuan was basically in a safe state.

“Let’s rest here first.”

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly and didn’t explain anything to Nezha and the others.

However, Nezha and the others would not refute Jiang Yuan. After Jiang Yuan made his decision, they nodded, found a safe place, and began to rest.

“Hmm, weren’t you planning to turn into a small bird and fly across the sky under the cover of night?”

Wang Boqing, who was ready to watch the show, saw Jiang Yuan and the others suddenly stop to rest, and he also turned to Mu Qianshan beside him, asking with a puzzled expression.

“How would I know? I’ve already been eliminated.” Mu Qianshan rolled his eyes, having no intention of bothering with the other party.

He had already changed positions several times, but this guy was like a dog-skin plaster, sticking to him again.

So annoying!

“Tell me, you must know his plan, right?”

“It’s possible that because I died, the plan changed.”

Mu Qianshan stared at Wang Boqing with dead fish eyes, and after speaking, he prepared to change places again.

However, as soon as Mu Qianshan lifted his leg, Wang Boqing followed him again.

“You also use a sword, right? Can I see the weapon in your hand?”

“No.”

“I’ll show you the weapon in my hand too, we can observe each other.”

“No.”

“I’m quite curious, is the weapon in your hand lightning-attributed? Why don’t you use a non-attributed weapon?”

“Don’t like it.”

“How effective are other attribute skills when used with a lightning-attributed weapon? Will they be worse? Or similar to a non-attributed weapon?”

“Don’t know.”

“I don’t know either, that’s why I’m asking you. After all, I’ve only used non-attributed weapons from the very beginning.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t go, can’t you really let me see the weapon in your hand? It looks pretty cool.”

......

......

“Does he have some new plan?” Yu Chengtian rubbed his bald head, looked at Li Yueying, and asked with some curiosity.

“I said, can you guys stop being like curious babies? Every time something happens to him, you ask me. How would I know?”

Li Yueying was annoyed and rolled her eyes: “Everyone is already a Tenth Realm expert, at the Vice Principal level, why are you still asking around? Don’t you know it’s annoying?”

“Buddy, why don’t you apologize to him? I really want to know.”

Facing Li Yueying’s barrage of retorts, Yu Chengtian awkwardly rubbed his bald head, then leaned in front of Guan Chutian and said.

Guan Chutian didn’t speak, but her expression darkened even more.

She knew she shouldn’t have come to this Four School Joint Examination!

So annoying!

One who asks around without much thought, one woman she can’t stand, one who smiles and clearly isn’t a good person, and the last one who doesn’t talk much but is ugly.

What kind of lineup is this!

So annoying!

The little person inside Guan Chutian was constantly going crazy, and she was even more depressed looking at the two guys in the field who still had the nerve to smile.

Her two disciples had just appeared and hadn’t even shown any abilities before Jiang Yuan instantly killed them.

They weren’t even worthy of having their names mentioned, nor were they worthy of discussion.

How embarrassing!

She was too embarrassed to say that those two guys were her disciples.

But even so, the two eliminated wretches still had the nerve to smile there?

It seemed their usual training was too easy.

Guan Chutian gritted her teeth, looking at her two disciples.

And the two young men in the plaza who were taken down by Zhao Gongming’s two Instant Flashes had no idea that their master was already holding a grudge against them.

At this moment, they were laughing heartily at the sight of a person who had been hiding for a long time being ambushed and taken down.

The two of them were definitely genius Students.

At only twenty years old, they had already reached Fourth Realm, Jiang Lou (Late Stage)!

Although they were eliminated quickly, their master also said that those of Jiang Lou ( Jianglou) strength with bad luck were just cannon fodder on this battlefield.

So, after they were eliminated, they didn’t care, only thinking that they were unlucky and ran into a strong opponent.

An arrow shot from eight thousand meters away, wasn't that definitely Great Beam (Late Stage) strength?

Perhaps they were even among the top-ranked Students from some academy.

Otherwise, how could the two of them, as genius Students, be taken down without even seeing their opponent?

Their guess was correct. The person they were referring to was indeed ranked high, even first, on Zhongyuan Academy’s leaderboard.

However, unfortunately, it wasn’t the fifth-year Student leaderboard they thought, but the fourth-year Student leaderboard, the same grade as them.

Time passed, and it was soon around three in the morning.

Most of the people in the First Battlefield and Second Battlefield had fallen asleep, with only those in the Third Battlefield and a small portion of Sixth Realm Shi Shen and above in the plaza still watching the battles.

Sixth Realm Shi Shen could stay awake for one or two nights without sleep because they had reshaped their bodies.

However, due to habit, most people would still choose to sleep.

After all, there were basically no battles at night in the First and Second Battlefields.

Only in the Third Battlefield were there occasional battles at night.

But the battles in the Third Battlefield could be watched as replays the next day.

So at this time, in the plaza, besides the energetic Yu Chengtian and Jin Lingyu, Guan Chutian, Li Yueying, and Miao Xinghuo had all gone to sleep.

Miao Xinghuo used the excuse of being old, while Guan Chutian and Li Yueying said they needed their beauty sleep.

“What do you mean, old? Is there such a thing as ‘old’ for us Tenth Realm experts? Aren’t we all more cunning the older we get?”

Yu Chengtian looked at Miao Xinghuo slowly leaving, feeling a bit bewildered.

“Jiang Yuan seems to be making a move?”

Jin Lingyu looked back and forth at the screens of the Students he favored, but found that they were all resting.

Just as he was about to rest for a while himself, he suddenly saw Jiang Yuan stand up on the screen.

“What?”

Yu Chengtian also became excited. For someone like him who disliked sleeping, causing trouble late at night was quite entertaining.

“Don’t know, let’s see.”

Jin Lingyu and Yu Chengtian looked at the screen, and Jiang Yuan on the screen also began to move.

After a purple-quality card appeared in his hand, Jiang Yuan glanced at the sleeping Nezha, then at the awakened Zhao Gongming and Shi Ji, and then the purple-quality card in his hand began to glow.

Purple light shone, and Jiang Yuan also closed his eyes.

“What’s going on?”

“Don’t know.”

“Alright, asking you is like asking nothing.”

Seeing Jiang Yuan’s actions on the screen, Jin Lingyu subconsciously asked Yu Chengtian.

But as he said, asking was useless.

Watching Jiang Yuan open his eyes after a short while, a smile on his face, and then lie back down to sleep, Jin Lingyu and Yu Chengtian were also a bit puzzled.

As dusk faded and the sun once again bathed the earth, people in the Second Battlefield began to rush towards a single location.

And that place was a lake on the plain at the edge of the safe zone.

“Is the news reliable? I always feel it’s a bit unreliable.” Yin Lingbai, ranked thirty-seventh in Da Xia Academy, asked his two teammates while hurrying.

“It’s not just one of us who dreamed this, that might be unreliable, but all three of us dreamed it simultaneously. It’s just going to take a look.”

After Yang Lingwen, ranked nineteenth in Da Xia Academy, finished speaking, Qi Chenfeng, ranked tenth, also nodded: “Indeed, and that place is also on our mandatory path to enter the safe zone, so there’s no harm in going to see.”

“Then let’s go see.”

The three nodded and sped up again.

Although it was only a little past eight in the morning, and the promised treasure wouldn’t appear until two in the afternoon, arriving earlier definitely had an advantage.

Whether for ambushing or hiding.

“You say, is the powerful card mentioned in that treasure, which can allow us to successfully enter the top two hundred, real?”

Sha Yiwei, ranked sixteenth among the fifth-year Students of Martial Arts Academy, was also rushing towards the lake on the plain at the edge of the safe zone, asking his teammate beside him as he rushed.

“Most likely no problem, after all, that’s the Old Principal of Zhongyuan Academy, can he lie to us?”

Bei Le'an, ranked seventh among the fifth-year Students of Martial Arts Academy, pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Perhaps he thought our battles were too dull, so he wanted to change the rules, but because it was inconvenient to notify us, he chose to notify us in dreams.”

Zhan Youqing, ranked ninth on the Martial Arts Academy leaderboard, also thought for a moment before speaking.

“But it’s not a big problem. Although the four of us aren’t very strong, our strength isn’t weak either. Let’s go check it out.”

“Right, it’s on the mandatory path anyway.” Bei Le'an smiled and checked the time: “We still have plenty of time, no need to rush.”

“Okay, we’ll go slowly, then reap the benefits.”

People outside the safe zone were trying to rush into it, while in a forest within the safe zone, two people sleeping in a tree suddenly opened their eyes.

“What do you say?”

“Of course we’re going to see. A powerful purple-quality card that can largely ensure we enter the top two hundred, I also want to see what kind of card it is.”

“Then let’s go.”

After a brief exchange, the two decided to head towards the lake.

The two were Wei Qiyou, ranked first among the fifth-year Students of Bei Mang Academy, and Bai Fusi, ranked second.
