Several teachers stood at the very front of the students, ready to move on and conduct the next exercise."Next, we're going to see who gets the highest monster core and reward the five winners...." Elder Su was cut short by the sudden noise of the students, and this time he decided to listen."Sir, when we were finding our way out of the forest, my group and I were robbed of our monster core," explained a girl from the back of the crowd."Same here; many of us weren't able to escape the grasp of those greedy fellows," another among the crowd added, along with some others.He allowed them to finish talking. "How does that have anything to do with us? It's none of anyone's business, or you expect us to come to your aid because you're too weak to defend yourself," Elder Su snorted, his expression cold.Those who voice out their problem shut up, not daring to say anything again, and lower their heads in shame.Elder Su took a few steps forward and then halted. "Why do you think you were
Everyone was stunned by Lu Shang; it was an unexpected scene. It is quite shocking to see a junior cultivator at the 5th stage of the body enhancer realm bring out many monster cores at once.Instructor Deng and other teachers, along with some elders, widened their eyes in shock, looking at Lu Shang as a monster.Only some elders weren't surprised at Lu Shang bringing out numerous monster cores, especially the ones that happened to witness when Lu Shang and his team were battling against numerous class 1 magical beasts with ease.Elder Su had a bright smile on his face. 'I wonder how you got stronger so quick. The sect master must know something about you; he wasn't shocked nor surprised when I told him about you.' He was thinking deeply about Lu Shang."Impossible! It can't be true. He must be one of those greedy fools who cooperated with others to rob his fellow students." A student angrily snorted from the crowd.Hearing that, many junior cultivators became angry, follow suit by cu
The junior cultivators discussed amongst themselves, looking at Lu Shang in shock, their hearts sinking in disbelief. Some refused to believe that a 5th stage body enhancer cultivator would be able to hunt for so many monster cores.Even some senior cultivators couldn't help but talk about him, rebuking the idea that he gathered such monster cores with his own strength, suspecting he might have gained them through unfair means."Lu Shang? Isn't he the weakling that Mo Shen always bullies?" one junior cultivator asked, the disbelief evident in their voice."Yes, I still remember him. That's him," another replied, shaking their head in disbelief."I heard he suddenly fought against Mo Shen and even beat him. Not only that, he dealt with Mo Shen and his friends mercilessly," a third added, the shock evident in their tone."I also heard that he and his friend got into a conflict with the Furious Five and defeated them, causing them the biggest embarrassment," someone else chimed in, their
Meanwhile, the sect leader of the Glossom battalion sect arrived in front of a magnificent building.Approaching the grand gate, he was about to fly through when abruptly stopped."Stop there! Who are you? Don't you know the rule that no one is permitted to fly into the palace except for special individuals?"The guard's voice boomed around the vicinity, which immediately alerted the guards inside. They began to rush out, prepared to attack if the person was an enemy.It was a laid-down rule that flying isn't allowed in the palace vicinity except for some individuals. Everybody knows about this, so seeing someone break this rule in broad daylight was quite shocking.The sect leader obeyed without hesitation, cloaked in black with his face concealed, except for his eyes. He stood calmly on the high wall of the gate, his hands behind his back."Oh, sorry, sire." The moment the guard got to him and saw his face, he immediately went down to his knees and apologized. "I never knew it was y
The eyes of everyone were fixed on Lu Shang, and their expressions revealed a mixture of curiosity and seriousness.Lu Shang seemed unfazed by the attention, continuing in a calm tone. "Sir," he began, "I would like to know if my friends and I can still participate in the next monster core submission?"Instructor Deng's eyes widened, and his voice betrayed his disbelief. "Wait. You're talking about the class 2 monster core submission?" he asked, still struggling to grasp Lu Shang's request.Lu Shang nodded, his mouth composed into a cute smile.The room fell into an unusual silence as everyone absorbed the weight of Lu Shang's request. Even the Elders and teachers present were taken by surprise. Was Lu Shang being overconfident, or was there something wrong with him at that moment?Instructor Deng stood dumbfounded for a moment, trying to regain his composure. "You want to submit a class 2 monster core?" he confirmed again, shock evident in his voice.Lu Shang's friends watched from t
Soon, the sky was filled with dark thunderclouds, and strange energy surged in the middle of them.Everyone looked up, drawn by the sight."What’s going on?""Look at the sky! Those lightning strikes are terrifying. I’m scared I’d die if even a little spark hits me.""Is that scary event from a few days ago about to happen again?""......""......."Panic spread as people watched the chaos, especially among weaker cultivators who felt afraid.Thunder and lightning flashed across the sky, their loud roars creating a sense of dread.In different clans and sects, powerful experts stopped their training, opening their eyes to the sky with worried expressions."It can’t be," said the grandmaster of the Chilling Wind Clan, fear in his voice. "This energy is different and much stronger than what we felt days ago." He tried to look deeper into the sky but was hit by a wave of lightning that nearly killed him....In the palace, the king stood on the roof of the tallest building, staring at the
"I challenge you to step onto the stage and fight me, Lu Shang," Mo Shen said to Lu Shang, who was the same with him in the training hall. Mo Shen was one of the powerful junior cultivators in the Glosom Sect battalion."I'm sorry, Mo Shen, but I can't fight you today; I am tired for today; tomorrow we are going to spar," reply Lu Shang, who was just about to leave the junior cultivator martial arts training hall."I know you are afraid to fight with me because you are a fool, always giving excuses to run away from fights. Bastard!" yell Mo Shen mockingly, trying to get Lu Shang to fight him because Lu Shang was the weakest of all the young cultivators in the junior academy."Hahaha, we are going to be seeing an interesting show before the end of the day.""With the strength of Mo Shen now, I think Lu Shang is going to be defeated in 10 moves.""I don't know why we have such a frightened person who is afraid to fight.""I even heard that Mo Shen just started learning a new skill named
Mo Shen slowly raised his hands, performing his skills."Heavenly golden fist: first stage; destroying mountains!" shouted Lu shang as he took his stance, ready to at least counter Mo Shen attack which he knew isn't going to be easy.Lu Shang's fist started to glow a golden yellow light, and his fist started going toward Mo Shen. With only an inch left to hit his target, Mo Shen performed his footwork combined with his newly learned skill, "windflaming fist.""Wind flaming fist!"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!Before Lu shang fist could reach Mo Shen.THUD!He was already sent flying, crashing into the nearby wall again because it was already too late to dodge the punch of Mo shen."Do you think you can defeat me, or you overestimate yourself?" Mo Shen sneered and ran towards Lu Shang to continue beating him.As Mo Shen got close to Lu Shang, ready to launch punch after punch on him. "STOP!" Came the loud voice of a guard who entered the training hall. The fight was stopped by the interruption o

All the students quickly brought down their tents and placed them in their space belts.The students began their journey back to the sect.Lu Shang, Lu Xun, Wang Lei, and Yin Deng walked side by side without leaving each other for a minute. They discussed it on their way back.Meanwhile, others were staring at Yin Deng from time to time with a confused look on their faces. This was the first time they saw his face and couldn't grasp who he was or where he was from."Who is that?""This is the first time that I am seeing his face.""Me too; I don't know him either. Maybe this is a fresher who recently joined the academy.""Fresher? No, I don't think so, because before coming down to the forest, there were only three in their team without him, but all of a sudden, when they came out, they became four."".....""True, meaning something is wrong somewhere, but no matter what, we are still going to get the full gist when we arrive back at the sect."Different people silently discussed with
The disciples of the Glosom Sect Battalion quickly exited the forest and set up their tent outside of the forest, awaiting those who were yet to be out. Some of the students were terrified after the strange phenomenon that happened within the forest and hurriedly moved out of the forest. The various teachers had already received urgent messages to pay attention to the students from the sect leader, who was still deep in the forest, trying to find trace of the dark energy with Elder Su and Elder Yu that accompanied him. The teachers didn't know the reason for this urgent message but acted according to the instruction. At this moment, Lu Shang and his groups have successfully found their way out of the forest. "Finally, at last," Lu Shang said with a smile on his face as he took a deep breath in relief. "Don't you guys feel that the air here is better and fresher than the one within the forest?" he added, looking at the faces of those behind him, especially Lu Xun, who seemed to be t
Lu Shang was able to stable the injuries on him but he noticed something was wrong with his body.He released his aura from his body and a powerful aura began to surge in the air making Wang Lei, Lu Xun, Yin Deng, and the identical triplet feel an uneasy pressure pressing down on their body but were able to control their body from the damage of it.Suddenly, Lu Shang jumped back in fright, looking dumbly at his body."What!! How come?" He yelled out, questioning himself with a hint of confusion mixed within his voice.The others that were close to him, looked at him with confused expression, wondering what made in yell out in such manners."Lu Shang, what is the problem?" Lu Xun immediately asked with a worried look on her face, seeing the kind of expression on the face of Lu Shang.Lu Shang didn't reply to her but was focusing all his attention on his body. Lu Xun wasn't angry that Lu Shang didn't reply to her but rather she felt that Lu Shang was focused on himself.He checked within
