Chapter 260: Chapter 260: The Righteousness of Brothers!

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

The annual beast-hunting competition arrived as scheduled.

At the East Courtyard Martial Arts Arena.

"Hehe, you little rascals!"

Devil Instructor Leng Jianfeng looked at the forty-six students from the East Courtyard who had signed up for the beast-hunting competition and nodded in satisfaction as he stroked his chin.

Of these forty-six, naturally, all seven roommates from Ling Feng’s Tianshu East Courtyard had signed up. Of course, there were also Lee Bufan, Wang Yishan, Lio Yunfei, Qin Wanwan...

It is worth mentioning that the female students who signed up for the competition actually took up ten spots, which made those male students who were too timid to enter blush.

"Not bad, one third of the students are participating. You really aren’t afraid of dying!"

As soon as Leng Jianfeng opened his mouth, he drew enough ire to earn a round of rolling eyes from those who had registered.

After spending more than a month together, everyone knew that although Leng Jianfeng seemed cold and ruthless, he was actually a compassionate and good instructor, albeit with a venomous tongue.

"Once you get to the Heavenly Position Mountain Range, keep your wits about you. I definitely don’t want you rookies dying on me and then having to collect your corpses!" Leng Jianfeng said with a sneer.

"Oh come on, Instructor Leng, can’t you hope for something good for us?" The burly Wang Yishan immediately complained.

"Exactly, Instructor Leng, if anything happens to us, it’ll be because your mouth is too venomous, and you poisoned us to death!"

"Haha..."

Laughter erupted on the field.

"Get out of here, you little rascals!" Leng Jianfeng, merciless, kicked one of the contentious students in the butt, sending him sprawling. "If you die, it’s your own fault for being useless. You’d have returned everything I taught you!"

"Alright, enough talk, let’s get moving!"

With a grand wave of his hand, forty-six students from the East Courtyard Yellow Sect set off majestically toward the Heavenly Position Mountain Range.

As for those who didn’t sign up, they naturally stayed inside the academy and attended classes as usual.

The beast-hunting competition lasted three days. After three days in the Heavenly Position Mountain Range, the participating students must return.

The sole criterion for judging the final results was naturally the Demon Cores. The greater the number and higher the rank of the Demon Cores, the higher the final score.

...

After about half an hour, under the leadership of Leng Jianfeng, they arrived in front of a vast mountain range.

At the moment, quite a few people had already gathered in the open space outside the forest.

Of course, most participants in the beast-hunting competition were Yellow Character Disciples, with each of the Five Academies having forty to fifty participants. As for Xuan Character Disciples and higher, there were far fewer competitors.

These seasoned students had already assessed the abilities of their peers and knew roughly where they stood, so those who knew they had no chance at the final reward didn’t bother to sign up.

"Finally, a chance for some real combat!" Jiang Xiaofan clenched his fists in eagerness.

This guy had always been a battle maniac, itching for a chance at such real combat.

"Just to be clear, I’m just here to watch." Feng Mo sighed lightly. Among the seven roommates of Tianshu East Courtyard, this guy was the laziest. He thought spending these three days fighting and killing was less appealing than enjoying some "classics" in the Book Collection Pavilion.

However, since the other six were all participating, Feng Mo had no choice but to grit his teeth and join them, adhering to the principle of sticking together.

"Every student of each rank must secure a place in the top ten to receive a reward. Therefore, after entering the Heavenly Position Mountain Range, our opponents will not only be Demons but could also be students from any of the other academies," Ling Feng quietly reminded everyone, pursing his lips.

In reality, even students from the East Courtyard could backstab each other for that valuable reward.

However, Ling Feng didn’t want to spell it out. It was enough for everyone to understand tacitly.

Especially Jiang Xiaofan, whose mind was a bit too naive.

"Uh-huh, got it." Jiang Xiaofan was the first to nod in agreement. Regardless of the situation, the one person Jiang Xiaofan would never question was Ling Feng.

"You big silly, Brother is particularly saying this for you. Being naive isn’t a bad thing, but being too naive is downright stupid!" Ouyang Jing, who was sworn brothers with Jiang Xiaofan, naturally felt obliged to remind him.

Recalling the past, the struggle for the position of Young Master within the Ouyang Family saw kin slaying each other. It wasn’t wise to be too naive.

One must not harbor ill intentions, but one must also guard against others!

"Hehe..." Jiang Xiaofan scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed, continuously nodding. How much he understood, only he himself knew.

"Alright, once we go in, let’s stick together," Ling Feng patted Jiang Xiaofan’s shoulder. These guys’ abilities were passable among the Yellow Character Disciples, but it would be challenging for them to stand out among the students of the Five Academies.

Since they all called him Brother, he naturally had to lend a hand and at least secure a decent ranking.

"Haha, with Brother Feng’s words, we’re relieved!" Feng Mo immediately came closer with a smile on his face. With Ling Feng around, hunting ordinary Demons was almost like child’s play.

He Yiming and Yang Jun also nodded continuously, "Thank you, Brother Feng!"

Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaofan clenched his fists and said grittily, "Brother, I... I want to..."

Seeing the look in Jiang Xiaofan’s eyes, Ling Feng understood what was in his heart. This stubborn young man did not want to rely on his protection all the time.

"I understand," Ling Feng’s eyes flickered with a trace of admiration. Perhaps Jiang Xiaofan had the least talent among his roommates, but with his temperament, he was bound to achieve the highest accomplishments in the future.

"Xiao Fan, go for it!" Ling Feng patted his shoulder again. He had no reason to stop Jiang Xiaofan and even felt proud of such a brother.

"Thank you, Brother!" Jiang Xiaofan awkwardly scratched his head, grateful to have a brother like Ling Feng who understood his thoughts.

"No, letting Xiao Fan act alone won’t do," Ouyang Jing said with a grin. "Brother, I’ll team up with Xiao Fan. My strength is about the same as Xiao Fan’s, which makes us a good team. Although Xiao Fan is strong, his naivety makes him easy to fool!"

"Second Brother..." Jiang Xiaofan was moved, looking gratefully at Ouyang Jing, with a hint of tears glimmering in his eyes.

"Okay, okay, am I not your Second Brother for nothing!" Ouyang Jing pretended to be nonchalant, shrugged his shoulders, and chuckled, "Since I am your Second Brother, don’t you think of leaving me far behind. My strength is quite strong, too!"

"Mm, it’s good for you two to look out for each other."

Ling Feng nodded his head. With Jiang Xiaofan’s combat skills, combined with Ouyang Jing’s intelligence, they were unlikely to suffer any major losses.

"Damn, you can’t let these opportunities all go to you guys! Brother Feng, I’m going my own way!" Zhou Kai, also stirred up by Jiang Xiaofan and Ouyang Jing, slapped his chest and declared loudly.

"Brother Kai, I’ll go with you!" He Yiming laughed heartily.

In the end, the seven roommates from Tianshu were split into three teams: Ling Feng, Yang Jun, and Feng Mo in one group; Jiang Xiaofan and Ouyang Jing in another; Zhou Kai and He Yiming in the last.

At the same time, not far away in some bushes, most of the students from the West Courtyard were gathering there, with He Zhongjie and his brother stealthily blending into the crowd, their eyes flashing with an unmistakably chilly gleam...
