Chapter 436: Sneak-Attack and Also Steal Potato Chips?

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

The Heavenly Academy couldn’t sit back and watch if these participants fell into mortal danger, so it gave each of them a Heavenly Insight Token, a spiritual artifact looking neither like gold nor jade. Once it was activated, it would release a spiritual stamp with great defensive power while sending a message to the cultivators of the Heavenly Academy on the Sky-Patrolling Spiritual Ship.

Although only a part of the mountainous area was set aside as the exam area, the space was still vast, and the ship couldn’t monitor everything happening in the exam area. However, once this token was activated, the message would be sent to the spiritual ship; it meant that the participant forfeited the exam and would be rescued by cultivators of the Heavenly Academy.

Of course, this token didn’t guarantee safety. The participants might die before they could activate the tokens, or some powerful force might just break the defensive stamp of the token and kill them. Everything was possible.

In Cloud-Hacking Mountain outside Heavenly Academy, Jiang Xiaoyue began to broadcast her exam by posting texts and images on QQ with the communication jade. On the other hand, she had a bag of potato chips.

“Sister Lanruo, do you want more?” Jiang Xiaoyue crunched on the potato chips and handed a bag bigger than her head to Li Lanruo while saying with a smirk, “Now, Boss can’t stop me from eating!”

While eating potato chips, Li Lanruo said with great enjoyment, “So delicious! How come we don’t have potato chips in the shop?”

“I got it from a gift box at the new year party!” She had complained about her bad luck when she saw others getting items like the Black Snow Treasure Sword or Rune No. 13. But now facing Li Lanruo who had never opened gift boxes, she was quite smug. “It’s a new item that the shop has never sold yet!”

At this moment, some faint, irregular noises came from the hidden places near them.

“Look!” A black-robed young cultivator pulled the leaves before his eyes and saw a loli and a blue-clothed beauty who were busy eating potato chips, oblivious to the things around them.

“They are alone?!” Another black-clothed young man said as if he had discovered a new continent. “They show no signs... they haven’t discovered us for one bit!”

He beckoned at his companions. “Come over here! Come over here!”

“That girl... seems to be the little princess of the Jiang Family?!” A yellow-clothed young man froze as if he had recognized Jiang Xiaoyue. “We might greatly offend the Jiang Family if we attack her.”

“What are you afraid of?! We’ll just take her items and won’t hurt her! In the academy exam, if we don’t dare to attack anyone we meet, it’s better that we just pack and go home!”

“I checked around and found nothing good around this place. I’m sure that this little girl took them all!”

“You’re right!” There were about ten people in the group. “Let’s attack at the same time!”

Many masters from major forces had entered this year’s exam, but it didn’t mean that the others had no chance.

It was hard for cultivators with moderate strengths to survive in the spiritual mountains full of restriction arrays and look for natural treasures.

For the smart participants, they either joined a master or formed a group with other participants. When they were in danger, they could deal with it with combined forces and thus reduce damage.

This group of a dozen-or-so cultivators was clearly trying to use this strategy. Some of them came from one force and thus had a tighter bond.

More than ten people sneak-attacking two! Obviously, they had greater odds of winning!

“Brother Huang! You guys set a net array and restrict their spiritual essence!” The black-clothed cultivator said in a low voice, “Do it at my signal, and I’ll break her protective spiritual artifact with the Black Feather Snake Needle at the same time!”

“Okay! Brother Mo, you even brought Black Feather Snake Needles with you?!” The yellow-clothed man licked his lips. “I wonder what elixir they are eating; they seem to be enjoying it very much. Let’s take it and try it ourselves!”

“Right! We’ll have a taste of it too!” The black-clothed cultivator sneered. Then, he concealed his presence and moved forward stealthily.

Next, an air-piercing whistle came.

“Move!”

With a yell, a large pale blue light net surrounded Jiang Xiaoyue and Li Lanruo!

The light net spread to the depths of the mountain around them. Under this light net, Jiang Xiaoyue and Li Lanruo’s spiritual essence stopped circulating. Meanwhile, several sharp black needles shot toward them with low whistling sounds!

It seemed that Jiang Xiaoyue was too dazed to react.

“Move!” The black-clothed cultivator looked pleased. “We got them!”

At his order, about ten cultivators wearing yellow or black robes removed their concealment and stealth techniques and launched all kinds of spiritual spells and spiritual artifacts!

At this moment, they suddenly saw Jiang Xiaoyue holding two metal spiritual artifacts with strange shapes; one was black, and the other was white.

The black-clothed cultivator felt that she didn’t activate any spiritual essence.

“She is even weaker than I expected!” The black-clothed cultivator sneered.

The black holes in the spiritual artifacts suddenly shot out burning flames!

Crack! Crack...

The dozen-or-so cultivators and several spiritual artifacts dropped to the ground like dumplings going into the pot!

“We have suppressed your spiritual essence! What is th...?”

Jiang Xiaoyue changed the magazines and murmured to herself, “These guns are not good... Without my spiritual essence, their power is so weak!”

“Pu–!” The black-clothed cultivator spat out a mouthful blood, and it wasn’t clear if it was caused by the fury or getting shot.

Li Lanruo was at a loss for words while standing beside her.

Meanwhile in the distant Jiuhua City, Li Haoran was explaining something to his audience with a few bullets engraved with pale blue spiritual patterns in hands, “After many experiments, we’ve produced the eighth type of bullets—Spiritual Penetration Bullets!”

While holding one of the bullets, he said, “They are derived from the basic Magnum bullets, and the guns are based on the special guns originating from those in Devil May Cry 3 which can condense demonic energy. On the bullets, we engraved the special arrays used to break protective spiritual artifacts or spiritual spells.”

“Have you tested them?”

“We tested them only at the spiritual shooting range,” Li Haoran said, “The shop owner brought Xiaoyue here last time, and she bought some bullets; I wonder if they are effective...”

“Pu-!” The black-clothed cultivator spat out another mouthful of blood and passed out.

The cultivators who didn’t pass out immediately lowered their heads.

Xiaoyue sent a screenshot to the group chat. “ I’m awesome, eh? I knocked down more than ten cultivators in one breath!”

“Awesome! Awesome!”

“Powerful!”

“Xiaoyue is the champion!”

Then, she looted them cheerfully and took everything that they had. “Humph! Where were you when I got attacked and robbed every day in the Legend of Mir 2?!”

“Ahh! My spiritual herbs!” Seeing Jiang Xiaoyue taking all of their precious spiritual plants, they felt like crying, wondering what kind of spiritual artifacts could unleash such great power without spiritual essence?!

How could they survive that?!

They released their Heavenly Insight Tokens. GG!
