Chapter 377

"Thank you for this time, Chen Ang. With this Dragon Clan essence blood, the strength within my body will be a notch more powerful. Even if I break through to the God Realm in the future, I will belong to the ranks of the elite."

Chen Ang couldn't help but laugh: "Wan Shitong, it seems you have hidden many things from me. There aren't many people who can completely refine and absorb Dragon Clan essence blood in such a short time."

"I see your cultivation has improved; it seems this Dragon Clan essence blood is very pure. If you have any needs next time, remember to help me. Why does that purple flame feel so terrifying?"

"I know it's your secret, and I'm very curious. If you don't want to tell me, that's no problem; after all, it's your own choice. I'm just purely curious."

345: The Trial Ends

"This purple flame counts as my innate divine fire; it has existed since I was born. Under normal circumstances, I would absolutely not show it to others. This flame not only has the ability to burn the soul but can also purify the bloodline of demonic beasts. It is a very outrageous divine fire."

"People in my family have always warned me not to expose this ability of mine. Being caught by those old monsters for research would be fatal. I can take this flame out because I treat you as a friend; I hope you won't betray my trust."

Chen Ang said with a smile: "Rest assured, I understand the general situation. Your flame is truly magical; it can transform a corpse of a Dragon Clan demonic beast into complete Dragon Clan essence blood."

"I have observed this drop of Dragon Clan essence blood carefully; the purity is very high. I am even more curious about your identity. Who exactly are you?"

"What identity could I have? Just treat me as an intelligence peddler—a weakling who has no strength to truss a chicken and can't even defeat a Tier 9 demonic beast."

Chen Ang said mysteriously: "Is it that you can't defeat them, or you don't want to? Just based on your mysterious flame, there aren't many Tier 9 demonic beasts in the entire Demonic Beast Forest that could escape your harm."

Wan Shitong also had his own grievances: "You don't know that this flame has limitations; it can be used at most once a day. Right now, any ordinary person could kill me. It's a waste of a trump card."

"To use the flame as I please, I must reach the God Realm. The power consumed each time the flame is used is extremely huge; that is the reason I never use it lightly."

Chen Ang understood that everyone's thoughts were different. The mission of obtaining the Red Dragon Fruit was considered successfully completed. Just as the two were about to leave, their path was blocked by a Tier 9 senior student in front of them.

That senior student spoke directly: "Such a big commotion must have been caused by you two. I discovered this Red Dragon Fruit tree first. Later, seeing there was no city, I prepared to come and take it in a few days, but it was taken by you. Do you need to give me a reasonable explanation?"

Chen Ang said without hesitation: "Senior, there is a rule of first come, first served for this thing. You discovered this Red Dragon Fruit first, but who can prove it?"

"After we defeated that demonic beast, the Red Dragon Fruit naturally became our spoils of war. If you are not convinced, you can go to the academy to file an application. Don't have the idea of getting something for nothing."

The senior student also attacked Chen Ang without hesitation. His own strength was that of a Tier 9 powerhouse, and with the tempering of his physical body, he had the strength to fight against the senior.

Taking advantage of the time the two were fighting, Wan Shitong was not idle either; he took out the Heaven-Trapping Rope and directly trapped the senior.

"Senior, when you go out, don't you know that you should be careful and cautious? You dared to deal with the two of us alone; I don't know where you got the courage."

Chen Ang could see that Wan Shitong could not use this mysterious flame all the time, but the Heaven-Trapping Rope consumed very little power, almost no effort, and had no side effects.

Chen Ang took out the Azure Dragon Bright Moon Spear and successfully wounded the senior. He took away his demonic core to check the quantity inside; there were indeed quite a few, with dozens of Tier 9 ones.

He took out half and handed it to Wan Shitong, saying: "You also need grades. This time, without the help of your Heaven-Trapping Rope, I couldn't have subdued the senior so quickly. Just take it."

Wan Shitong admired people like Chen Ang from the bottom of his heart. The two began to constantly look for those senior students who were alone. One would constantly attack to attract attention, while the other would use the Heaven-Trapping Rope to trap the opponent, and they began to constantly rob the seniors of their demonic cores.

The two found a hidden place to discuss. In the Demonic Beast Forest, besides obtaining the Red Dragon Fruit, they also had to achieve a first-place grade. However, seeing so many seniors wanting to get first place, the demonic cores in their hands put together didn't have much possibility; they had to discuss a strategy.

They began to analyze the situation. Wan Shitong was worthy of being an intelligence peddler; he thought of a very good idea: borrowing a knife to kill someone. Basically, those acting alone were dealt with by the two, and the rest were groups acting together.

If there was no conflict of interest, they would find a way to create a conflict of interest. When internal strife occurred, solving them was the best choice.

Wan Shitong took out the pills he had prepared in advance and exhorted Chen Ang: "These are two pills that can hide our breathing. After taking them, a state of temporary death will occur."

"You kid are really not simple; you could actually think of such a method." The two began to act according to Wan Shitong's plan.

Looking at the six or seven people in the distance, Chen Ang and Wan Shitong pretended to go up to attack the demonic beasts. Finding the right time, with the cooperation of the demonic beasts, they perfectly created a fake death scene.

Those few people took the demonic cores from the two and began to distribute them. Among them, someone was dissatisfied with the distribution and wounded another person, and they began to argue with each other. The original cohesion of the entire team instantly shattered.

They began to fight each other. Originally, the distribution of demonic cores was uneven, and coupled with small daily conflicts, everything erupted at this moment. The trust of the team instantly fell apart.

What they didn't notice was that the corpses of Chen Ang and Wan Shitong on the side suddenly disappeared. The two were quietly hiding in a tree, watching the situation happening around them.

When they were almost done fighting, the two walked out and said: "A few of you, shouldn't we discuss the situation? You are all more or less injured, right? You can't exert your full power."

"Obediently surrender and hand over all the demonic cores, and I can spare your lives. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"As seniors, you should understand even more that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. Don't force me."

Seeing Chen Ang take out the Azure Dragon Bright Moon Spear, they had no choice but to surrender. One of them asked suspiciously: "How were you able to avoid our pursuit? We observed the aura of you two. You were killed by demonic beasts, and there was no possibility of survival."

"A few seniors have somewhat shallow knowledge. Don't you know that one can fake death? It just happened to give you an illusion. Putting the demonic cores by our side, you only saw the demonic cores and subconsciously assumed we were dead."

"You actually used fake death to deceive us; isn't that a bit too much? We will report you to the academy."

"All is fair in war. Next time, I hope you can be more careful. On the battlefield, do you know what kind of insidious means the enemy will use to deal with you?"

After speaking, he took all the demonic cores from the few people into his hands. This time, he was confident that he could win first place in the trial. When the ten days ended and they were teleported back to the Wuqu Academy, the pockets of Chen Ang and Wan Shitong were bulging.

Shangguan Canyue looked at the resentful classmates around her and knew that this matter was done by that kid Chen Ang. There was nothing he couldn't do; this person was very terrifying.

346: Anger

After the Dean heard the news reported by Teacher Li, he was very angry. Regarding the rewards for this trial, he said a few words and left in a hurry. Teacher Li knew that the Dean was definitely angry this time.

What kind of punishment there would be, he didn't know in his heart. He prayed to be scolded less. For such a big thing, not being expelled from Wuqu Academy was a blessing in misfortune.

The two came to an open space. Teacher Li spoke first: "Dean, I'm sorry. This time it was my drinking that delayed things. I also didn't expect that a Tier 9 demonic beast could break through to the realm of a Demonic King in the Demonic Beast Forest."

"This time, fortunately, there was Chen Ang's help, helping me temporarily hold back the Demonic King, which prevented others from being harmed. Also, I don't know why there were traces of soul-bewitching incense on Chen Ang."

It stands to reason that soul-bewitching incense is something used specifically to attract demonic beasts. It was actually sprinkled on someone; it seems that some people here want Chen Ang to die. They have started killing each other; what kind of order is this?

After hearing this, the Dean was very angry: "Teacher Li, you are an old teacher of the school. Before this trial started, I exhorted you repeatedly, telling you to be careful and drink less so that nothing would happen."

"This time, what do you think should be done? The Sin Prison side happens to need a rotation. You go there to reflect for three months first. I believe three months will make you realize your mistake."

Hearing that it was the Sin Prison, even Teacher Li couldn't help but tremble with fear: "Dean, give me another chance. With my cultivation, going to the Sin Prison is truly a place with no burial ground."

"This is your business and has nothing to do with me. I have already given you a chance, but you didn't choose to cherish it. As a teacher of Wuqu Academy, you should understand your responsibilities at all times."

"This time, fortunately, he forcibly held back the Demonic King. If Chen Ang hadn't held him back, tell me what I should do? Go to the Sin Prison for three months. If you are still alive after three months, you will still be a teacher of Wuqu Academy."

"Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in heaven. Your family will be settled by Wuqu Academy. This is all I can do to help you. I must be responsible not only for you but also for so many students of Wuqu Academy."

Teacher Li could also see the Dean's determination at this time. With no other choice, he began to head to the Sin Prison. He didn't know if he could come back alive. In that place called the Sin Prison, very few people could survive.

The Sin Prison was originally a place where the Perished World and extraterritorial enemies fought each other. The minimum requirement inside was a powerhouse of the God Realm. Teacher Li was a God Realm cultivator, but he belonged to the low-tier God Realm. The probability of surviving in the Sin Prison was very low.

Three months of time belonged to the existence of cannon fodder. Most of the powerhouses of the Perished World were stationed here. Wuqu Academy basically sent a large number of graduates to the Sin Prison for support and training every year.

This is also the reason why Wuqu Academy could have such great energy in the Perished World. Offending Wuqu Academy basically meant no good fruit to eat.

The Dean's mood at this moment was very complicated. You must know that he was quite optimistic about Lin Ye, but he actually put soul-bewitching incense on Chen Ang, which made the Dean very surprised.

Who had such courage to dare to break the rules? For these years, he hadn't been angry. Others thought Wuqu Academy was so easy to bully. It seems he had to find a way to give them a lesson.

He began to say to his confidant: "Find a way to organize all the information of the personnel participating in this trial and bring it to me. I want to know everything that happened in the last month."

"Through the clues, see who bought the soul-bewitching incense. I must investigate this matter strictly and must give Chen Ang an explanation. Now Wuqu Academy can't even protect the lives of its students; what use am I as a Dean? Investigate quickly, do you hear me?"

The confidant knew the Dean's temper, so he began to prepare. This time, it was estimated that many people inside the academy would be punished. The anger of the Dean was not so easy to calm down.

The Dean kept his word, and the required cultivation materials were soon delivered to Chen Ang, which made Chen Ang very happy. With these materials, his cultivation would be more rapid.

Only when one's own strength is strong enough can one have the possibility of dealing with those dangers. If the strength is too weak, one must constantly improve it. Only when one is strong enough will others feel fear and be afraid of oneself.

After resting for the night, he came to the residence of Master Wu Tian the next day. Wu Tian looked at Chen Ang returning and couldn't help but laugh: "How is it? You brat, did you get the things I asked you to take?"

Chen Ang wanted to take out the Red Dragon Fruit and hand it to Wu Tian to see. Wu Tian was full of joy and laughed loudly: "Not bad. After taking this Red Dragon Fruit, it will be of great benefit to you. You are really lucky this time."

"I didn't expect that there would be dragon blood in this Red Dragon Fruit. Cultivate well. The path of body cultivation is far more difficult than you imagine. This time I heard that someone set a trap for you. Do you know who this person is?"

Chen Ang shook his head: "As for this, I really don't know. I asked Wan Shitong to investigate this matter, but the information obtained so far is very limited."

"Wan Shitong is a person who has experienced life and death with me. I believe he should have some clues and is currently trying to investigate."

Wu Tian said seriously: "This matter is too complicated. I believe the Dean is also trying hard to investigate. You brat might not know that your matter this time made the Dean extremely angry."

"The high-level officials of the entire Wuqu Academy have been in deep water these two days. For so many years, daring to destroy the situation of classmates in the Demonic Beast Forest is the taboo of the Dean. I didn't expect that there would still be people touching this brow. They really have commendable courage."

Chen Ang took out the cultivation technique the Dean gave him. Wu Tian saw this cultivation technique and couldn't help but ask: "This wouldn't be given to you by the Dean, would it? The power of the cultivation technique is very strong. If you can refine it successfully, you will definitely be an existence that can fight one against a hundred."

"But the problem is, Chen Ang, do you have that time? The time and energy consumed to cultivate this cultivation technique are huge, and it's possible you won't be able to practice it. You have to think it over."

"Master, don't worry. If you don't try, how would you know? If I happen to practice it successfully, wouldn't I have one more trump card? At critical moments, it will definitely have unexpected effects."

"Good boy, that's how it should be. Go forward bravely. The materials needed will be reimbursed by the Dean, and I will provide you with a part. During this period, cultivate constantly."

"Your cultivation should also be improved. Among the Tier 9, your strength is not considered the top. I not only want your strength to reach the peak of Tier 9 but also to reach the ultimate of the peak of Tier 9."

"I will build a perfect foundation for you to impact a higher realm. Let you win at the starting line. Don't think about breaking through to the God Realm for the time being. With the help of Wuqu Academy, there is still a long time for cultivation."

347: Dragon Clan Phantom

Chen Ang hadn't been cultivating at Master Wu Tian's place for long when Wan Shitong found him and said seriously: "Chen Ang, I'm sorry. This time I didn't find any evidence. The person who wants to kill you is very powerful."

"The family background is extremely powerful. Not only can they get things like soul-bewitching incense, which are banned in the market, in a short time, but they can also send dead soldiers cultivated by their own family into the interior of the Divine Beast Forest. This is a very difficult thing to do."

"The mastermind behind the scenes is very terrifying. I also asked about all the buyers of soul-bewitching incense in the black market during this period, and the result is that there are no clues."

"As for the identity of that dead soldier, I also investigated carefully, but unfortunately, the face was destroyed, and there is no substantial evidence. This time I really tried my best. I didn't expect the mastermind to be so powerful."

"According to the clues, we can still analyze some things. Being able to cultivate dead soldiers shows that his family is extremely powerful. Not buying in the black market shows that his family has special channels."

"Or he asked someone else to buy it. Secretly let people keep a close eye on everyone who has bought soul-bewitching incense in the black market in the past year. Just see if anyone has contact with the students of Wuqu Academy within a year. If there is any situation, I will tell you immediately."

Chen Ang said with a smile: "This is no problem. You don't have to worry too much. It's good that there's nothing wrong with people. The Dean is also investigating on his side, so rest assured."

Wan Shitong said with a smile: "Recently I am preparing to break through to the peak of Tier 9. Do you want to watch? Do you have time?" ===== CHAPTER 378 =====
