Chapter 235: Each Generation Produces Its Own Talents (Second Update)

Perhaps it is because of the existence of uncertain factors, but compared to the previous Difficult-level Task, the Academic Credit reward for this mission is higher.

The Silent Forest is vast; it is the largest primeval forest in the Langya Kingdom, with an area half the size of a province. No one knows how many powerful wild Spirit Beasts one might encounter inside, and even Divine Beasts are possible.

However, as long as one does not venture too deep into the Silent Forest, the danger will not be great. Moreover, they have Instructor Qian Yuanfei with them; if they truly encounter a wild Spirit Beast that they cannot defeat, Instructor Qian Yuanfei will certainly intervene.

With the strength of a unicorn, even if they encounter a dragon, they would have the power to put up a fight.

On the outskirts of Luo City, the Li Family Manor!

At this moment, the daylight had completely faded, and Li Zhangsheng and the others steered their large Flying Demon Pets, circling down to land at the main gate of the Li Family Manor.

As usual, the Li Family Manor was still brightly lit, but compared to usual, it seemed to have a bit more security.

Upon seeing several large Flying Demon Pets land, the few servants responsible for the night watch subconsciously became alert. Only when they saw Li Zhangsheng and Li Tianyu did they all heave a sigh of relief.

Both of them were the hope of the family; it was impossible for them not to recognize them.

"Young Master Changsheng, Young Master Tianyu!"

Upon seeing Li Zhangsheng, the few servants hurriedly bowed respectfully.

"Mm! These are my instructors and classmates. They will stay here for the night, but I still need to ask the Clan Leader about this first!"

Li Zhangsheng's small courtyard was not large enough to accommodate so many people, and he felt it would be too distant to let them stay at an inn in Luo City, so it was better to leave it to the family to host them. After all, this was a good thing for the family.

Instructor Qian Yuanfei went without saying, and the other four were also elites of the Yuanling Academy. Someone like Yuan Yongyan was born into a Famous Clan and had the potential to become a Stronger in the future. As long as the Clan Leader was not a fool, he would certainly try his best to win them over and take the opportunity to establish a connection with them.

Since they were Li Zhangsheng's instructors and classmates, they were naturally also from the Yuanling Academy. The servants immediately attached great importance to them, and one of the servants hurried to report to the Clan Leader at top speed.

"Everyone, please!"

Regardless of the servants' reactions, Li Zhangsheng reached out a hand, and with Li Tianyu accompanying him on the side, he welcomed everyone into the family.

"It feels about the same as my home!" Chen Yunsheng lifted his foot to step through the gate. His family was also a Local Power, and their status in the region was similar to that of the Li Family.

Instructor Qian Yuanfei and Yuan Yongyan did not speak; this was a common occurrence for them.

Among those present, only Wang Ding found it novel, looking around here and there, acting like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden. He came from a commoner family and this was his first time entering the territory of a Local Power family.

"Haha, I was wondering why there were magpies chirping on the branches; so it is Changsheng and Tianyu returning with their instructors and classmates. Rare guests, rare guests indeed!"

Very quickly, the resonant voice of the Clan Leader, Li Wenbo, came over. The voice arrived before the person, and almost in a flash, he appeared before Li Zhangsheng and the others with a pace that seemed slow but was actually fast.

"Greetings, Clan Leader!" Li Zhangsheng and Li Tianyu hurriedly called out, then introduced Li Wenbo to the instructors and classmates.

Feeling Instructor Qian Yuanfei's undisguised Mental Power, Li Wenbo felt a chill in his heart; he immediately understood that the other party was far above him.

Instructor Qian Yuanfei was not an impolite person, and furthermore, he valued Li Zhangsheng very much, so he naturally showed corresponding respect to Li Wenbo.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, Li Wenbo hurriedly invited them to the reception hall.

Perhaps having heard the news, some Clan Elders were already waiting in the reception hall beforehand. Very quickly, except for those Clan Elders who truly could not get away, all the others arrived. This was undoubtedly a very high level of treatment.

It was no wonder Li Wenbo attached such importance to them; they were only a Local Power, while the other party consisted of a Fifth-rank Instructor and Elite Class Members from the Yuanling Academy. How could they not be grand?

However, Li Wenbo was a person who paid attention to details. From the casual conversation along the way just now, he discovered that Li Zhangsheng held a high status among them and was even addressed as "Captain" by them.

Li Zhangsheng looked at the various Clan Elders. At this moment, he noticed that the face of the Clan Elder who had sent him the family reward a few days ago was full of desolation, and his right sleeve hung limply; he was missing his right hand.

Li Zhangsheng had a mind to ask, but this occasion was not the time to talk about such things.

Due to the connection of Li Zhangsheng and Li Tianyu, both sides were quite polite. Instructor Qian Yuanfei was knowledgeable and had no airs, and the few team members were even more talkative, embellishing their accounts of what they had seen and heard during this period.

"I never expected that Changsheng would not only become the Class Monitor but also the captain of one of the training teams!"

"To have even defeated an Elite-level Demonic Emperor Crocodile, impressive!"

"Each generation produces its own talents; I fear Changsheng's strength has already surpassed this old man's. I am getting old, I am getting old!"

The Clan Elders praised him one after another. The more prosperous the family, the higher their status would be, and the more cultivation resources they could secure, which would also improve their own strength.

This was a virtuous cycle!

"So Changsheng is looking to dispose of five adult Emperor Crocodiles. You are worthy of being an elite descendant cultivated by us, thinking of the family the moment there is a benefit. It just so happens that the family needs to expand its strength recently! Rest assured, I guarantee you won't suffer a loss!"

Li Wenbo showed a gratified expression. Ever since his father, Li Xinming, took away several elderly Clan Elders to clear out demons, the defensive strength of the Li Family Manor was naturally not as good as before, and their main target of defense was the Lin Family.

Hearing his older brother say this, Li Wenhan, who had originally wanted to take advantage of the situation, had to suppress the small thoughts in his heart.

Excluding Li Zhangsheng, the entire Li Family had only a single-digit number of Medium Grade Demon Pets, and these Medium Grade Demon Pets were very scattered. Whether it was the Clan Leader or the Clan Elders, most of them held Low Grade Demon Pets in their hands.

Adult Emperor Crocodiles, a High-Level General Species, Medium Grade, and also large Water Attribute Exotic Beasts—this naturally made the Clan Elders flock to them, their eyes staring hotly at the five adult Emperor Crocodiles that Li Zhangsheng had placed in the open space.

Due to the unfamiliar environment, the Emperor Crocodiles appeared a bit irritable, but they ultimately possessed a certain level of intelligence and did not act rashly.

"An adult Emperor Crocodile is worth about two hundred Soul Crystals each. Changsheng, what do you think?"

"Two hundred Soul Crystals per head is fine!" Li Zhangsheng could not really sell them at market price. If he were truly stingy, it would not be good for his reputation in the family, and besides, he wanted to get rid of them as quickly as possible.

"Good, generous!" Li Wenbo praised him.

Under Li Wenbo's direction, the Clan Elders reached into their own pockets one after another, and those who did not have enough borrowed from familiar clansmen. Very quickly, all five adult Emperor Crocodiles were bought up, and some Clan Elders who were a step late could not help but stamp their feet in frustration.

In just a short quarter of an hour, Li Zhangsheng had exchanged the five adult Emperor Crocodiles for one thousand Low-grade Soul Crystals, which greatly replenished his funds.

At this time, Li Zhangsheng suddenly asked: "By the way, why haven't I seen Clan Elder Li Yi? Did he go to execute a family mission?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Zhangsheng's voice fell, the previously lively reception hall instantly became quiet, so silent that a pin drop could be heard.
