"I dare not accept such praise, it's just a bad reputation!" Zhao Wuji said with a fake smile, "I haven't been adventuring in the Soul Master world for a long time. Now I'm retired and teaching in an academy. This time I came to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt the Third Spirit Ring for some of my students, and this thousand-year Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent is just right for one of them."
As Chao Tianxiang guessed, Zhao Wuji didn't give her face and directly give up the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent.
Chao Tianxiang frowned, "Are you saying that you have several students who have reached level 30, but these children?"
With her eyesight, she could naturally see that among these children, the oldest, Dai Mubai, was about the same age as her granddaughter Meng Yiran, and the younger ones were only eleven or twelve years old. But what she didn't expect was that several of them had broken through level 30. Did they poke a genius nest?
"Humph, so what if this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent is suitable for your student? We discovered it first and started hunting it. Return it to me quickly." Meng Yiran was a little anxious. It was rare to see such a good Spirit Ring, with its age and attributes so compatible with her. She couldn't give it up.
The importance of level 30 is self-evident. A suitable Third Spirit Ring has a great impact on future achievements.
"You say you started hunting this Soul Beast first, what's the proof?" Oscar also valued this Spirit Ring and immediately questioned.
"Hehe, young man, don't worry. Look at the snake's abdomen. Are there several wounds? Those were inflicted by my old woman's crutch. If it weren't for its excellent escape skills, it would have died in my hands long ago." Chao Tianxiang pointed to the snake's abdomen, where there were indeed several wounds, each of which was fatal.
This proved that what Chao Tianxiang said was true, so it was reasonable for them to ask for this Soul Beast. Zhao Wuji looked at Tianlin, who had subdued the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Elder Chao, actually, I didn't subdue this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent, but this little friend from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. He is a friend of one of my students and not a student of my Academy. I can't order him. Since you two contributed to subduing this snake, why don't you discuss the ownership yourselves?"
Passing the buck, Zhao Wuji was quite clever. He couldn't afford to offend the Peerless Dragon Serpent, but could the Peerless Dragon Serpent afford to offend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Sure enough, upon hearing the name of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Serpent Granny's expression changed. That was a sect a hundred times stronger than her Dragon Serpent Family.
Tianlin smiled slightly. This Zhao Wuji seemed rough, but his mind was quite delicate. This was also good, selling another favor to Oscar. Besides, he had long had ideas about the Peerless Dragon Serpent couple.
However, daring to use his sect as a weapon, he had to remember this debt. Next time, he would find Grandpa Bone or Master to chat with Zhao Wuji again. Grandpa Eagle's heart was not hard enough.
"This young man, so you were born in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. May I ask your name?" Chao Tianxiang asked.
"I am Jun Tianlin, paying my respects to Senior Serpent Granny."
"Jun Tianlin! You are the Sword Douluo's Direct Disciple, Sword Prince?" Chao Tianxiang said in surprise. This group of people couldn't be touched now. Even if her husband came, it would be the same. A Chen Xin was enough to turn their family into ashes.
"Since it's Sword Prince in person, let's just drop the matter today. Alas, Yiran, let's go!" Chao Tianxiang sighed, pulling Meng Yiran to leave.
"No, this is my Spirit Ring, I will never give up." Meng Yiran stubbornly shook off her grandmother's hand and stepped forward, "Even if you are from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you can't be unreasonable, right? Since both of us have contributed to capturing this snake, let's follow the rules of the Soul Master world and have a fair fight. The winner gets the Spirit Ring."
"No." Tianlin shook his head.
Seeing this, Meng Yiran's eyes filled with tears, "You are bullying people too much. So what if your sect is strong? Bullying people with power like this, I, Meng Yiran, am not convinced."
"Miss Meng misunderstood. I refuse because the condition you proposed cannot be fulfilled at all. The one who wants to hunt this Soul Beast on our side is Oscar, and he is a Food-type Soul Master. His Spirit is Sausage. How can he have a fair fight with you?" Tianlin explained.
"What, Food-type?" Chao Tianxiang was shocked. Food-type was the most difficult type to cultivate among all categories, but this young man, who was slightly younger than her granddaughter, had actually reached level 30. Perhaps there wasn't a second such Food-type genius in the entire continent.
Delighted to see talent, she directly asked, "Young man, may I ask which sect you come from? Are you also from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"
"I don't have a sect. Our Dean said that my Sausage Spirit has mutated, which is why this happened." Oscar shook his head.
"No sect!" Chao Tianxiang was overjoyed upon hearing this. Since he wasn't from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she immediately had the idea of poaching him. If such a talented Food-type Soul Master could assist her granddaughter, wouldn't that be perfect?
Just as Chao Tianxiang was about to speak and extend an invitation, Tang San seemed to be preparing to step forward and fight in place of Oscar. At this moment, Tianlin quickly grabbed him, "Brother Tang, can't you see that Senior Serpent Granny is interested in Oscar? Don't mess around at this time, otherwise you will ruin Oscar's future and marriage."
Without Tang San messing around, Serpent Granny finally said what she didn't finish saying in the original work, "Young man, since you don't have a sect, would you like to consider coming to us after you graduate? My granddaughter Yiran needs someone who can assist her. If you agree, not only will we not compete for this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent today, but my husband and I will take care of all your Spirit Rings in the future."
"Grandma, what are you talking about?" Meng Yiran said dissatisfiedly. Her grandmother wasn't recruiting people at all, she was simply arranging a marriage for her.
Secretly glancing at Oscar, she hadn't paid attention before, but this guy was really handsome. Even compared to that Sword Prince, he wasn't much worse, and he was so talented. Honestly, he was indeed worthy of her.
Oscar was also very embarrassed by Serpent Granny's straightforward words. He had just lost his love, was it possible that God was compensating him and sending him such a beautiful girl today?
"This, that I am an orphan, grew up in the Academy since I was a child, such a big matter still needs the Dean to decide." Oscar stammered.
Serpent Granny smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Alright, since that's the case, I'll go back and have a good discussion with your academy's dean. You can absorb this Spirit Ring."
Oscar didn't directly refuse, which in her eyes meant he agreed. Her Dragon Serpent Family's strength was not weak, and her granddaughter was so beautiful, she really couldn't find any reason for that dean to refuse.
Ning Rongrong glanced at Tianlin strangely upon hearing this. She knew that Tianlin had always had designs on Oscar. Today, he actually watched as he was recruited by Serpent Granny, and remained indifferent as the thing he had his eye on was snatched away. It really didn't fit his personality.
Little did she know, Tianlin wasn't just interested in Oscar, he was also interested in the Peerless Dragon Serpent. As long as he brought the Peerless Dragon Serpent under his command, then Oscar, who had joined the Dragon Serpent Family, wouldn't that be the same as joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?
This is what they call, 'Children make choices, adults want it all!'
