Chapter 898 Role Transition
Although they were both at the middle stage of the Voiding Realm, Qin Haodong’s Spirit was much more sensitive than Zhao Xingyue’s. He had long sensed that someone was approaching.
He immediately pulled the two girls through the trees and finally chose a big tree with dense branches and leaves to hide.
Not long after they hid, three figures arrived. They stopped near the tree.
“What’s going on? I clearly felt that someone was here. How did he suddenly disappear?”
The one who spoke was the murderous Xue Pan. Beside him was He Kaishan. There was also an old student who had reached the early stage of the Voiding Realm, Hao Wei.
The three of them looked around carefully and found no one. Hao Wei said, “Brother Xue, are you mistaken?”
Xue Pan said with a puzzled face, “I shouldn’t be mistaken! I clearly felt that someone was here. How did he suddenly disappear?”
He Kaishan said, “Brother Xue, don’t worry. The competition has just begun. Qin Haodong won’t be able to escape from us.”
Xue Pan nodded. “Let’s go ahead and look. We must find him.”
Then the three of them rushed forward again.
“Three idiots!”
The Little Witch giggled and was about to jump down from the tree but Qin Haodong held her back, indicating for her not to speak.
She did not understand why Qin Haodong did this. Since they had already left, what else was there to be afraid of? But out of trust in Qin Haodong, she still closed her mouth, squatted on the branch, and looked down.
A few minutes later, Xue Pan and the other two appeared under the tree again.
He Kaishan said, “Brother Xue, it seems that you were overthinking. There is indeed no one here.”
Xue Pan said doubtfully, “It seems that I was wrong.”
When they left again, Qin Haodong jumped down from the tree with the Little Witch and Zhao Xingyue.
The Little Witch said, “Xue Pan is quite cunning.”
Zhao Xingyue said, “Big Brother Qin, why don’t we hide in the tree? They can’t find us anyway.”
Qin Haodong said speechlessly, “Don’t forget the rules of our academy. If we can’t reach the exit of the canyon in 24 hours, we will lose and have to forfeit all the Spirit Stones.”
The Little Witch said, “Sister Xingyue, I really don’t know what you are afraid of. If Big Brother Qin hadn’t asked me to hide, I would have summoned the Silver Claw Octopus that would have devoured them all.”
Qin Haodong suddenly thought of something. Although he had now received 20,000 Spirit Stones as a reward, it belonged to three people. It was not good for him to take it all for himself.
In this way, there was still some distance from his goal of 100,000 Spirit Stones. He had to find a way to make more money.
He asked, “Hongying, according to the rules of the competition in the academy, can we rob old students of their top-level Spirit Stones?”
“Of course,” Luo Hongying said, “what’s the hunting competition for? Everyone else is your prey. You can snatch the Spirit Stones as long as you have the ability to do so.
“However, generally speaking, the strength of the new students is much weaker than that of the old students. It is lucky enough that they will not be robbed. Few new students dare to rob the old students of their Spirit stones.
“In the past, when I participated in this kind of competition, be it as an individual or a unit, no one dared to rob me but I robbed them of a lot of top-level Spirit Stones. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be ranked second in the whole academy.”
Qin Haodong said, “In that case, we can’t go back empty-handed this time. We must grab more.”
The Little Witch shouted excitedly, “Good! Great! That’s the most exciting. I don’t want any money. I’ll give it all to you, my little brother.”
She had always been fearless and didn’t care much about money. What she cared about was the process of getting the money.
Zhao Xingyue said nervously, “Big Brother Qin, I don’t want my share of the money. Can we not rob others? Let’s get out of here as soon as possible.”
Qin Haodong said, “Xingyue, remember that no matter where you go, the weak are the prey of the strong. It’s the law of nature. If you don’t dare to rob others, others will come to rob you.”
Zhao Xingyue nodded and said, “Well, I’ll listen to you.”
After the three reached an agreement, they rushed forward together to find their first target.
In the dense forest, three old students in black school uniforms galloped over.
A tall and thin student said, “Boss, we seem to be unlucky this time. We haven’t found a single freshman.”
Another student added, “Yes, for this hunting competition, we have invested a lot of money to buy pills. We have finally improved our cultivation. If we can’t find new students to rob, we will lose money.”
The student whom they addressed as the boss was Li Yunhe. Just a month ago, he was still at the early stage of the Voiding Realm. However, in order to obtain more Spirit Stones in this hunting competition, he spent a large sum of money to buy a Voidbreaker Pill and improved his cultivation to the middle stage of the Voiding Realm.
“Don’t worry! Only an hour has passed. As long as we can find new students, their money will be ours.”
The tall and thin student said, “Boss is right. Now you are at the middle stage of the Voiding Realm and the two of us are at the early stage of the Voiding Realm. Although those freshmen looked great on the arena, compared to us, they are still rookies.”
“Of course. With our current cultivation, except for Murong Jinghong and the others, no one can compare with us, let alone those new students.”
A wisp of complacency suffused the corners of Li Yunhe’s mouth. “We must make the best use of our time. Otherwise, others will beat us to it and we won’t be able to get much money.”
“According to the rules of the academy, only half of the Spirit Stones are allowed to be taken. The earlier we take action, the more money we will get.”
After that, the three of them rushed forward and kept looking for traces of the new students.
More than ten minutes later, the tall and thin student shouted, “Boss, look ahead.”
Li Yunhe looked in the direction of his finger and saw three people sitting on the grassy ground in the forest, eating snacks and drinking beer. They didn’t look like they were here to participate in the competition but more like they were here for an outing.
The tall and thin student cried, “Boss, they are the Little Witch and Qin Haodong. Shall we take an action?”
Li Yunhe said excitedly, “We certainly will do it. They are fat sheep. They have twenty thousand top-level Spirit Stones. As long as we snatch half of Spirit Stones, we’ll get ten thousand. It’s much better than robbing the other freshmen.”
The tall and thin student said hesitantly, “But boss, the Little Witch is so powerful. Are you sure we can succeed?”
Li Yunhe said, “The Little Witch’s summoning is famous for being unreliable. She has successfully summoned two extremely powerful demonic beasts in a row. This time, she definitely won’t be so lucky. This is our chance. Quickly make your move!”
As the saying goes, money comes from danger. The other two companions also suppressed the fear in their hearts. After a loud shout, they rushed over and surrounded Qin Haodong and the others.
Li Yunhe took two steps forward and yelled at the Little Witch and Qin Haodong, “Brat, if you know what’s good for you, quickly hand over the money. When we brothers make our move, you will suffer.”
Qin Haodong picked up one steamed peanut and threw it into his mouth. He smiled at the Little Witch and said, “I didn’t expect the fish to take the bait so soon.”
The Little Witch said excitedly, “Little brother, your idea is really good. Let’s hurry and grab the money!”
“You’re right. We must make full use of our time.”
Qin Haodong stood up and said to Li Yunhe and the other two, “Hurry up and hand over the money. Or, when I make my move, you will suffer.”
The tall and thin student was at first taken aback. Then he said to Li Yunhe, “Boss, he said what you had said.”
Li Yunhe’s face darkened. “Brat, don’t think that you’re so amazing because you’re the new champion. You are one of the new students who are on a completely different level than us old students.”
“Hand over the money now. Or, I won’t be nice.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Since you are not convinced, then hurry. Don’t waste time.”
“Brat, go to hell!”
Li Yunhe glanced at the Little Witch. Seeing that she did not take out the crystal ball to use the summoning skill, he immediately took the initiative and punched Qin Haodong in the chest.
This was the first time for him to go all out after reaching the middle stage of the Voiding Realm. The punch was powerful and shocking. The strong momentum rustled the fallen leaves on the ground and made these leaves fly all over the sky.
In his opinion, Qin Haodong was at most at the early stage of the Voiding Realm and could not resist his full blow.
But before his fist could touch Qin Haodong’s chest, a palm suddenly slapped him from the air and sent him flying.
There was no one watching them. Qin Haodong no longer hid his strength and beat them up as fast as he could.
“I…”
Li Yunhe was beaten until he was confused. Originally, he thought that his cultivation would be able to crush his opponent but he didn’t expect that he would be slapped away like a fly. He didn’t even have the slightest ability to resist Qin Haodong.
“Great! My little brother is so great!” The Little Witch clapped her hands and shouted happily.
“What’s going on? Is he not the weakest?”
Li Yunhe got up from the ground and felt the powerful momentum from Qin Haodong. He immediately understood that the young man had been hiding his strength during the freshmen competition.
He was the strongest of the three-person team.
Qin Haodong took two steps forward, looked at him with a smile, and said, “Hand over the money as soon as you can, lest you get hurt. Otherwise, you will be robbed by others later.”
“I…”
Li Yunhe was extremely depressed. He was an old student and came to rob money, okay? This fellow actually wanted to rob his money. How was that possible?
Seeing his unwilling look, Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “It seems that I have to do it myself.”
He strode toward Li Yunhe. Li Yunhe glanced at his two companions before shouting with a grim voice. “Let’s make a move together.”
The three of them were good friends in daily life. They cooperated very well. After a loud shout, they rushed toward Qin Haodong together.
“Pa! Pa! Pa!”
After three successive crisp sounds, Li Yunhe once again fell to the ground. What was different from before was that he had two more companions by his side.
This time, they realized the other party’s strength. Li Yunhe climbed up from the ground and yelled, “Qin Haodong, let’s go our separate ways and not make things difficult for each other, okay?”
The Little Witch stepped forward and said, “Can you be any less shameless? You want to embarrass my little brother? Do you have the ability to do that? Take out the money quickly. Or I will take action now.”
Li Yunhe and the others exchanged glances. They had originally come to plunder money but now they were being robbed.
“Run!” Li Yunhe yelled loudly. The three of them ran in three different directions.
He had already made up his mind. Since he could not snatch Qin Haodong’s Spirit Stones, it would not be a bad idea to protect his own.
But it turned out that their dream was too perfect. After taking a few steps, they felt their knees going soft and they fell to the ground.
The Little Witch stepped forward and grabbed Li Yunhe’s Storage Ring. Then, with a thought, she pulled out two thousand top-level Spirit Stones from the Storage Ring.
