Chapter 383: Wang Wang Hejiu's Choice
When Li Luo's squad and Qin Qin Zhulu's squad began their assault on the thirty-sixth platform in cooperation, the entire situation finally began to turn.
Li Luo and Qin Qin Zhulu directly withstood four Advanced Green Spirit Constructs of the Manifestation Phase, Second Transformation, while Student Xin Fu, Bai Bai Mengmeng, Lu Qing'er, and Yin Yin Yue, relying on combined tactics, temporarily isolated and trapped all the other Green Spirit Constructs.
The battle on Li Luo and Qin Qin Zhulu's side lasted less than ten minutes, and the two utterly crushed the four Advanced Green Spirit Constructs of the Manifestation Phase, Second Transformation, with a momentum that swept away withered wood.
Having resolved these four Advanced Green Spirit Constructs, the other problems became simple; Li Luo and Qin Qin Zhulu continued to join forces, destroying the isolated Green Spirit Constructs wave by wave, and thus the thirty-sixth platform, which had previously made it impossible for Li Luo and his three companions to advance an inch, was completely cleared.
When that massive surge of Green Spirit energy descended from the sky and flowed into their bodies, everyone present could not help but rejoice and leap with joy.
This cooperation of theirs had changed the method of the upcoming special training.
In just a single day, Li Luo's and Qin Qin Zhulu's squads helped each other, completely conquering the first clear of the thirty-sixth platform for the other, and this had not even stopped; they began to continue their assault toward the thirty-seventh layer.
Such speed naturally caused other squads to follow suit one after another.
Bai Bai Doudou's squad and Beside Yi Yi Lisha's squad began to cooperate and likewise made progress.
What was surprising was that Wang Wang Hejiu's squad was still slowly climbing alone, so they were quickly left behind by the other four squads, leaving people wondering what on earth they were thinking...
However, everyone's doubts were resolved the next day.
Because Wang Wang Hejiu's squad cleared four levels in one day!
Originally, Li Luo's and Qin Qin Zhulu's two squads had already begun assaulting the thirty-eighth layer, while Wang Wang Hejiu's squad was only at the thirty-fourth layer, but within a single short day, Wang Wang Hejiu's squad, as if taking medicine, directly cleared four layers in a row, catching up to Li Luo and Qin Qin Zhulu's combined squad.
And this efficiency directly caused everyone to be shocked and stare in amazement.
How did Wang Wang Hejiu and the others suddenly become so fierce? This is simply impossible!
Thus, with hearts filled with such shock, they cast their gaze toward the platform where Wang Wang Hejiu and the others were located, and there they saw a squad that did not belong to the One-Star Academy... That was a Purple Radiance squad from the Two-Star Academy, led by Ye Ye Qiuding!
Wang Wang Hejiu and the others had actually chosen to cooperate with that Purple Radiance squad from the Two-Star Academy, which was also deep within the Holy Wood Realm Cave!
"Damn it, doesn't this dog thing count as a violation?!" Seeing Yu Lang immediately burst out cursing.
The others also had somewhat unpleasant expressions; after all, within this Holy Wood Realm Cave, the distribution of Green Spirit energy was by academy; for instance, the entire One-Star Academy was allocated ten points of Green Spirit energy per day. It was one thing for their five Purple Radiance squads to compete with each other, at least they were all within the One-Star Academy's meal tray, but now Wang Wang Hejiu and the others had suddenly brought in Ye Ye Qiuding and the others from the Two-Star Academy; wouldn't that mean six squads were now splitting those ten points of Green Spirit energy?
This was simply handing over what belonged to the One-Star Academy to others!
Li Luo's brows also furrowed tightly; Wang Wang Hejiu and the others' action was obviously somewhat breaking the rules.
He could guess Wang Wang Hejiu's thoughts; it was nothing more than borrowing the stronger Purple Radiance squad from the Two-Star Academy to clear more platforms, thereby plundering more Green Spirit energy, and as for the Green Spirit energy divided away by Ye Ye Qiuding's squad, it was not within Wang Wang Hejiu's consideration; perhaps in his view, it was better to give it to Ye Ye Qiuding's squad than to let them have it.
After all, as Purple Radiance squads from the same One-Star Academy, there was still some competitive relationship between them, not to mention there were some personal grudges beforehand.
With the addition of Ye Ye Qiuding's squad, Wang Wang Hejiu and the others' strength could be said to have expanded exponentially; in this way, they would plunder the most Green Spirit energy; if this continued... it might affect the breakthrough in Li Luo's plan.
"What they are doing is too excessive." Lu Qing'er's face was like frost, speaking with some anger.
"Since they are so unrighteous, why don't you, Captain, go find Senior Sister Jiang to act as an external ally?" Student Xin Fu stroked his chin and gave a suggestion.
Bai Bai Mengmeng reminded, "The Three-Star Academy has not entered the Holy Wood Realm Cave for special training, so we cannot find Senior Sister Jiang to act as an external ally."
"Then what do we do now?" Student Xin Fu said helplessly.
Li Luo fell silent for a few breaths and said, "Actually, in the strict sense, although what they did was excessive, it does not count as a violation. As for how this matter will ultimately be judged, our words do not count; let us wait for now. At this moment, the five Purple Radiance instructors should be discussing it; let us see the final result before making plans."
Upon hearing this, the others also nodded; indeed, this was the only option at present.
And Li Luo's thoughts were indeed correct; when the situation of Wang Wang Hejiu and Ye Ye Qiuding's squad clearing four levels in one day appeared, the Purple Radiance instructors of the One-Star Academy also fell into a dispute.
"Shen Shen Jinxiao, is this how the students you teach are? To obtain more Green Spirit energy, can they even do such things that harm others for self-benefit? Or perhaps this action of theirs was secretly signaled by you?" Instructor Xi Chan struck first, her words sharp, pointing directly at Shen Shen Jinxiao.
Shen Shen Jinxiao's face showed no ripples, and he said calmly, "Instructor Xi Chan, did what they did violate the rules?"
"Shen Shen Jinxiao, do not use such words to perfunctorily dismiss us; rules are merely the lowest limit of morality. As students of the One-Star Academy, they should naturally safeguard the interests of the One-Star Academy. Such behavior of handing over the One-Star Academy's interests to outsiders is sufficient to explain their character." Instructor Xi Chan said coldly.
"It seems that in Instructor Xi Chan's eyes, students of the Two-Star Academy are not people of our Holy Zhu Xuan Star Academy?" Shen Shen Jinxiao refuted.
"Quibbling." Instructor Xi Chan's willow brows rose slightly.
The two argued endlessly, and the other Purple Radiance instructors also furrowed their brows tightly, because they all understood that this matter simply could not be untangled; Wang Wang Hejiu and the others had indeed acted excessively, but the rules of the Holy Wood Realm Cave did not prohibit such behavior, so they could say Wang Wang Hejiu and the others were unscrupulous in plundering Green Spirit energy, but they could not expel them for violating the rules.
Therefore, finally, after a while of arguing, Instructor Cao Sheng said in a heavy voice, "This matter should first be reported to the Jin Dian of the Academy and handed over to Vice Dean Su Xin for judgment."
The other Purple Radiance instructors nodded, and Instructor Xi Chan also let out a cold snort, saying no more; she had known this result from the very beginning, but the dissatisfaction in her heart had to be vented at Shen Shen Jinxiao.
However, although this matter had been stirred up and the other Purple Radiance instructors could not say anything, it was clear that they were also somewhat dissatisfied with Shen Shen Jinxiao; such a thing had been made too awkward, and if it spread, it would inevitably make the instructors of other academies laugh at how intense the internal strife was within the One-Star Academy.
Li Luo, Qin Qin Zhulu, and the others waited for a long time but heard no voice from any instructor, and then they understood the result.
No voice was equivalent to tacit approval.
Wang Wang Hejiu and the others seized the loophole in the rules, preventing the several Purple Radiance instructors from depriving them of their right to cultivate in the Holy Wood Realm Cave; needless to say, Shen Shen Jinxiao's strong support must have been behind this.
"This dog thing."
Li Luo cursed in his heart, then turned his gaze toward Qin Qin Zhulu and the others and said, "Do you have the courage to compete with the Purple Radiance squad of the Two-Star Academy?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Qin Zhulu grinned, and the excitement and agitation in his eyes almost surged out as if they had become solid.
"I have been seeking nothing else!"
