Chapter 947: Chapter 945: Sword List Master! Hua Jingcheng!

After Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan turned back, the members of the Guard Team watched them with a look of stunned amazement.

"Elder Brother Ruan?"

Seeing Ruan Jinhui standing there in a daze, Lin Bai called out softly.

"Oh, Junior Brother Lin Bai and Junior Sister Jian Ruohan, you’ve both worked hard. We’ll take over the battlefield from here," Ruan Jinhui said with a faint smile, promptly arranging for the other disciples to sweep through the Third Grade Spirit Puppets and Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets on the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan began to rest.

"Truly two monsters!" Ling Shuang crossed his arms and stood aside, his face showing a hint of wariness as he glanced at Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan.

Lu Rui stayed silent, his face revealing unwillingness.

As for Chi Hu and Qian Shanyun, they could only offer bitter smiles without speaking a word.

Just at that moment!

While Ruan Jinhui was organizing the warriors to sweep the battlefield, suddenly, at a distance on the Earth, a group of shadows whizzed past, appearing on the edge of the battlefield.

"Hehe, Elder Brother Hua, seems like our luck is good, just arrived at the Scorching Gobi and found such a large group of Spirit Puppets," one of the shadows in the group said with an indifferent smile.

"Junior Brother Zhang Yun, these are but Third and Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets, and you are a warrior with Seventh Stage Martial Intent, are you really interested in these?" another disciple said.

"Elder Brother Song Huan, even a mosquito’s leg is meat, don’t be so picky. Besides, the Spirit Crystals from these two to three thousand Third and Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets added together are not much less than a single Seventh-level Spirit Crystal," Zhang Yun continued to say, smiling.

"What do you think, Elder Brother Hua?"

Zhang Yun then asked the leader of the group.

The group consisted of five people, the leader among them a high-ranking expert with Eighth Stage Martial Intent, handsome in appearance, with a demeanor as splendid as jade, red lips, and white teeth—a genuine handsome man.

This person was named Hua Jingcheng, ranked fifty-second among the masters of the Sword Art Academy’s Sword List!

"Junior Brother Zhang Yun is right. We’ve just arrived at the Scorching Gobi; there’s no reason to let go of these Spirit Puppets," Hua Jingcheng said with a light smile, his eyes flashing with battle intent.

"Haha, Elder Brother Hua thinks the same as I do," Zhang Yun laughed heartily as he spoke.

"But Elder Brother Hua, there are warriors sweeping ahead, wouldn’t it be a bit unreasonable for us to intervene?" Song Huan from the team, seeing the warriors on the Scorching Gobi, spoke with some doubts.

Zhang Yun spoke impatiently, "Aye, Elder Brother Song Huan, you’re a Seventh Stage warrior, how are you still so timid and fretful? If these people dare to meddle in our affairs, we’ll just wipe them out."

"A bunch of Third and Fourth Stage warriors, what is there to worry about."

"If Elder Brother Song Huan won’t go, then I’m free to go."

Having said this, Zhang Yun dashed out from the midst of the team.

"Hey hey, Junior Brother Zhang Yun, I didn’t say I wasn’t going. With so many Third and Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets, I’m also envious," Song Huan, seeing Zhang Yun make a move, immediately hurried to catch up with Zhang Yun’s steps!

Hua Jingcheng smiled slightly and followed them at an unhurried pace.

"Hahaha, so many Spirit Puppets, we’re going to be rich, we’re going to be rich."

"Mad, after cleaning up this bunch of Spirit Puppets, my Martial Intent will almost be able to break through to the Fourth Stage."

"These few days at the Scorching Gobi have truly been a great opportunity!"

"Brothers, quit the nonsense and attack quickly!"

The alliance team on the Scorching Gobi swiftly slaughtered these Third Grade and Fourth Grade Spirit Puppets.

Suddenly.

At that moment, a power like a Flood Dragon emerging from the sea, Devouring Heaven, immediately swept through the entire field.

All the warriors under this power turned pale in an instant, their bodies trembling involuntarily.

"Everyone listen up, we Blood Sword Team have taken an interest in these Spirit Waves. Anyone who doesn’t want to die, get lost!"

A roar spread, terror congealed within the soundwaves, making every disciple’s illusionary body begin to tremble and revealing a hint of imminent shatter.

Ruan Jinhui, Chi Hu, Qian Shanyun, Lu Rui, and others showed a trace of surprise on their faces upon seeing this scene.

Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan were also shocked as they looked toward the center of the battleground.

Five individuals slowly emerged in the midst of the battlefield.

Especially the man leading them gave off a hair-raising sensation at first glance.

Clearly, many disciples recognized this man.

"Sword List master! Hua Jingcheng!"

Having mingled on the Miracle Ridge for many years, Ruan Jinhui naturally recognized this man’s identity and background at a glance.

"Elder Brother Ruan, do you know these people?" Lin Bai immediately inquired upon seeing the shock on Ruan Jinhui’s face.

Ruan Jinhui solemnly nodded, "Hua Jingcheng is a master from the Sword Art Academy’s Sword List, ranked fifty-second. His strength is terrifyingly exceptional. He is the captain of the Blood Sword Team."

"Last year, at the Primordial World Monster Hunting Conference, Hua Jingcheng led the Blood Sword Team to the ninth position, rewarded with 100,000 points, and instantly, the Blood Sword Team’s reputation surged throughout the Miracle Ridge!"

"This team is extremely strong!"

"And don’t be fooled by Hua Jingcheng’s smiley appearance. At heart, he is a man who is ruthless and vicious. Once he has you in his sights, even if you run to the Yama Hall, he would drag you out to toy with!"

Ruan Jinhui spoke with deep wariness.

Blood Sword Team? Primordial World Monster Hunting Conference?

Lin Bai was very unfamiliar with these two names, having never heard of them before.

"Elder Brother Ruan, what do we do now?" Ling Shuang asked Ruan Jinhui.

At this moment, because of the Blood Sword Team’s appearance, all the alliance disciples present dared not continue hunting the Third Grade Spirit Puppets and turned their attention towards Ruan Jinhui, waiting for his decision.

Besides being the Alliance Leader, Ruan Jinhui was also highly respected for his excellent character; many disciples trusted him completely.

Ruan Jinhui shook his head helplessly, "We can’t afford to provoke the Blood Sword Team, let it be. Let them have these Spirit Puppets."

"Give them to them? Why should we! Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan had a hard time killing those above Fifth Level Spirit Puppets. These Third Grade Spirit Puppets are ours by right; why should we give them up?" Ling Shuang said discontentedly.

Ruan Jinhui responded with a wry smile, "What can I do? Alas, we can only blame our incompetence."

"Mad, it pisses me off," Ling Shuang glared at Hua Jingcheng with a teeth-gritting look.

Ruan Jinhui stepped forward with a smile and said, "Turns out it’s Elder Brother Hua Jingcheng from the Blood Sword Team. Since Elder Brother Hua has taken an interest in these Spirit Puppets, Ruan wouldn’t be so ungracious."

"Consider these Spirit Puppets a greeting gift I offer to the Blood Sword Team."

"All alliance disciples, let’s go."

After saying this, Ruan Jinhui promptly signaled the alliance disciples to leave.

Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, upon hearing Ruan Jinhui’s decision, had no objections and prepared to follow the team out.

After all, Hua Jingcheng was an Eighth Stage Martial Intent master. Lin Bai and Jian Ruohan, even if they joined forces and played all their cards, might not be able to match him!

At the moment, although the alliance warriors were unwilling, Hua Jingcheng’s strength was clear for all to see, and no one dared to utter another word, ready to depart with Ruan Jinhui.

Just then, Lu Rui’s eyes spun slyly, and he darted out from the crowd to Hua Jingcheng, saying, "Elder Brother Hua, Elder Brother Hua, I am Lu Rui from the Sword Art Academy. I have some information for you."

"Lin Bai has over a hundred Fifth Level Spirit Crystals, more than fifty Sixth Level Spirit Crystals, and even a Seventh-level Spirit Crystal!"
