Coupled with Ye Changqing's meals, opening up this gap was an inevitable result.

Understanding the meaning behind Xu Jie's words, everyone nodded, but Wan Xiang said at this moment.

"That may be so, but in the beginning, there will always be an explosive improvement; it won't take long for them to catch up."

There was no problem in the short term, but others would improve too. Moreover, according to past experience, the progress was fastest during that initial period.

Just like him, Wan Xiang, he had been advancing by leaps and bounds at the beginning.

Besides strength and cultivation, the state of their hearts, their grasp of playing dirty, and so on, were all the same.

And as time passed, the speed of this progress would become slower and slower.

This was indeed a problem, and an unsolvable one at that.

Just as they were talking, they saw Zhu Wu walking in carrying several Black Rock Goats.

"Yo, are we eating mutton today?"

"Yeah, Master said we're making a new dish today: Braised Black Mountain Goat."

A new dish? Hearing this, the eyes of Xu Jie and the others suddenly lit up. They hadn't expected a new dish.

Zhu Wu didn't know what they were thinking; he greeted them with a laugh and strode toward the kitchen.

As for Xu Jie and the others, after Zhu Wu left, they looked at each other.

"Don't worry about anything else for now; we must secure our share of the new dish."

Future matters can be discussed later; let's solve tonight's dinner first.

Hearing Xu Jie's words, Zhong Ling and Shen Xian were the first to react. Understanding Xu Jie's meaning, the three of them smiled at each other.

"Heh heh..."

First, they would muddle through today's meal, and then the three of them stood up. Seeing this, Zhao Zhengping and the others asked suspiciously.

"Where are you going?"

"To deal with those people."

"Oh... wait, what do you want to do?"

Before they could finish speaking, Xu Jie and the other two had already walked out of the courtyard.

The three of them acted separately, each visiting a personal disciple with whom they had a good relationship.

Xu Jie was the first to find the senior brother of the Tyrant Spear Peak. The other party was originally practicing, and seeing Xu Jie arrive, he immediately laughed.

"Junior Brother Xu, what brings you here?"

"Haha, Senior Brother, you overstate it. Since I've come to the near-shore camp, I should naturally pay a visit."

"It's been almost a year since we last met, hasn't it? Come, sit down and talk."

The two sat on bamboo chairs in the courtyard, and Xu Jie took a pot of fine wine from his spatial ring.

"Come, it's rare to see each other today; we senior and junior brothers must drink a few cups."

"Haha, I have the same intention."

Without thinking much, the two immediately began to drink happily.

But after only a few cups, the Tyrant Spear Peak senior brother felt his head becoming dizzy, and his eyelids felt as heavy as ten thousand pounds, unable to even open.

He looked at Xu Jie in a daze.

"Junior Brother, this wine of yours..."

Before he could finish, he slumped onto the table.

Looking at the senior brother who had fallen into a deep sleep, Xu Jie smiled slightly. One down.

This wine was naturally fine; it was ordinary wine, but Xu Jie had added a little something to it.

It had no harmful effects; it was purely to make someone faint, and they would be fine after a sleep.

Carrying the senior brother back to the bed in his room, he covered him with a quilt.

Xu Jie left with a smile, continuing to find the other senior and junior brothers.

On the other side, Zhong Ling and Shen Xian used the same method.

The three of them hadn't discussed it beforehand, all saying they could handle it, but coincidentally, the methods they used were exactly the same.

They had thought of the same thing.

On Shen Xian's side, he was also drinking with a senior brother from the Beast Taming Peak. After a few cups, this senior brother also quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, Shen Xian skillfully carried him and walked toward the room.

Inside the near-shore camp, the personal disciples of the Hundred Grass Peak, Beast Taming Peak, and Tyrant Spear Peak were knocked out one by one by Xu Jie and the other two.

However, what the three didn't know was that it wasn't just them; at this moment, inner disciples like Chen Mu, outer disciples, and even servant disciples were all acting in a rush.

And the method used was exactly the same as that of Xu Jie and the other three.

It was as if everyone had planned it in advance.

Some disciples even bumped into each other by accident.

For example, Chen Mu had just finished dealing with the number one inner disciple of the Beast Taming Peak and quickly found the number one inner disciple of the Tyrant Spear Peak.

But after entering the courtyard, he discovered that the number one inner disciple of the Literary Academy Peak was also there.

When the two looked at each other, they were both stunned, clearly not expecting the other to appear here.

The Literary Academy Peak disciple was the first to react and immediately stood up to smile at Chen Mu.

"Haha, Senior Brother Chen, are you here to find Junior Brother Li too? Perfect, why don't you come and have a drink?"

His smile was incredibly bright, but a brilliant plan instantly surged into his heart.

He had originally only intended to deal with Junior Brother Li first, but who would have thought there would be an unexpected surprise?

Since Chen Mu had also come, dealing with one person was a mess, and dealing with two was also a mess; let's just deal with them both together.

Harboring bad intentions, he stood up on the surface and affectionately took Chen Mu's hand into the courtyard.

Being pulled by the Literary Academy Peak senior brother, Chen Mu saw through it clearly. He first glanced at Junior Brother Li, who looked clearly abnormal with a flushed face, and then looked at the incredibly enthusiastic Literary Academy Peak senior brother.

Chen Mu guessed almost instantly that this guy had added something to the wine.

"Come, come, come, it's rare for us three brothers to gather together today; let's drain this cup."

He took the initiative to pour a cup of wine for Chen Mu. Looking at the Literary Academy Peak senior brother raising his cup, Chen Mu sneered in his heart.

"Is he trying to deal with me too?"

But he didn't show it on the surface. Looking at the unsuspecting Junior Brother Li, Chen Mu also smiled and raised his wine cup.

"Haha, good, today we senior and junior brothers must drink until we're drunk."
