Chapter 450: Achieving the Goal (Combined Chapter, Requesting Everything)

Unfortunately, Tian Jingling did not find a trace of Kailan among those wood fragments.

At the critical moment, Kailan used Grafting to complete Cicada Sheds Its Skin.

"Careful!"

Following the sound of Tian Jingling's voice, Kailan appeared extremely abruptly behind the Dark Elf.

Before the Dark Elf could make a move, Kailan directly hugged the Dark Elf from behind, Rich Wood Energy suddenly emerged on her body, and like an arrow leaving the bowstring, she rushed rapidly toward the Obsidian Wall with the Dark Elf.

"Ah!"

The Dark Elf let out a scream; she struggled with all her might, but could not break free no matter what.

In terms of strength, the Dark Elf discovered that she was actually no match for Kailan.

When approaching the Obsidian Wall, Kailan swung her hands violently, the Dark Elf's screaming stopped abruptly, and she slammed fiercely into the hard Obsidian Wall.

Boom— Crack!

A dull sound rang out, stone debris flew everywhere, the Dark Elf's head was directly embedded into the Obsidian Wall, and the Obsidian Wall even developed spiderweb-like cracks, collapsing with a roar and burying the Dark Elf in the ruins.

Kailan knew very well that although this strike was strong, it was certainly still a distance away from finishing off the Dark Elf.

Without hesitation, Kailan flew to the headless Treant, her hands made contact with the headless Treant, and a glowing green light began to spread over the headless Treant.

In almost the blink of an eye, the green light completely enveloped the headless Treant.

"Split!"

Following the sound of Kailan's voice, dense cracking sounds came from the headless Treant, and under Kailan's control, the headless Treant transformed back into countless giant logs.

Clatter—

In the Obsidian ruins, the Dark Elf pushed away the stones on her body with blood at the corner of her mouth; her appearance was very disheveled.

Gulp—

Upon seeing the headless Treant being decomposed into countless giant logs, the Dark Elf swallowed a mouthful of saliva subconsciously, and the hairs all over her body stood on end.

Swish swish swish swish swish—

In an instant, piercing sounds of breaking through the air rang out, and countless giant logs formed a 90° angle, completely shrouding an area of several dozen meters; no matter how fast the Dark Elf was, she still could not escape the attack range of the giant logs.

Before being hit by the giant logs, the Dark Elf only had time to condense a Darkness Barrier, being wrapped up by an oval-shaped darkness energy shield a step ahead.

The first giant log slammed into the darkness shield, and ripples began to emerge on it.

However, the number of giant logs was simply too great; before the ripples could subside, the second giant log followed closely and crashed down, making the ripples on the Darkness Barrier even more intense.

At the same time, under the indiscriminate coverage of the countless giant logs, the Dark Elf's field of vision was full of giant logs, and there was simply no possibility of escaping.

Boom— Boom— Boom— Crack crack— Clatter—

When the fifth giant log landed on it, the Darkness Barrier finally made a sound of being unable to bear the weight, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

Under the Dark Elf's terrified gaze, the Darkness Barrier shattered with a roar, dissipating into countless fragments of darkness energy.

Without giving the Dark Elf any chance to take measures, a giant log slammed directly into the Dark Elf's stomach.

"Ugh!"

The Dark Elf let out a muffled groan, her bloodshot eyes bulged out violently, looking more than just painful.

Under the impact of the giant log, the Dark Elf crashed into a section of the Obsidian Wall that was still relatively intact.

The wall cracked instantly, and then under the bombardment of the countless giant logs, this section of the Obsidian Wall could no longer hold up and was directly blasted to collapse by the countless giant logs.

The entire arena was shaking violently, dust filled the air rapidly, and for a time, it was impossible to see the situation on the field.

The watching audience and the referee looked at the violently trembling Restriction with heart-palpitating fear, terrified that the Restriction surrounding the arena would shatter.

Otherwise, if the Restriction shattered, the audience would definitely be affected.

Fortunately, the Restriction surrounding the arena was quite strong, and it was only affected, finally managing to neutralize the bombardment of the giant logs.

Seeing this situation, while the audience felt a sense of relief in their hearts, they stared tightly at the dust-filled arena.

Tian Jingling frowned tightly, her heart filled with unease; how could she not have expected that Li Zhangsheng's Grassland Elf would perform so aggressively.

On the other side, Li Zhangsheng revealed an expression of having victory in his grasp.

Soon, the dust settled, revealing the situation on the field.

An entire section of the Obsidian Wall had been completely collapsed by the giant logs, and countless giant logs were messily pressing down on that collapsed ruin.

The Dark Elf had not appeared for the time being, but according to Li Zhangsheng's guess, she had at least been severely injured.

In the sky, Kailan panted for a moment; she did not give the Dark Elf any chance at all and began to condense the next wave of offensive.

Dozens of sharp wooden spears formed instantly, the spear tips accompanied by a touch of green light, quietly floating in front of Kailan.

This is the Spear Forest of Wood, which can carry out a covering strike on objects within a 45° angle, and the green light on the spear tips can significantly enhance the penetrating power of the spears.

Once the Dark Elf appeared, she would definitely be met with Kailan's thunderous strike.

Clatter—

A giant log was pushed aside, the Dark Elf's right arm was hanging limp, her left hand was touching her chest which had sunken in quite a bit; it was unknown whether a rib was broken or if the protrusion on her chest had been beaten back in by the giant log.

Additionally, the Dark Elf's back was completely bruised, and every time she wanted to flap her wings, a burst of intense pain came from her back, so she could only laboriously walk out of the ruins.

When the Dark Elf raised her head, her pupils contracted; those sharp spears erupted with a sharp, piercing sound and shot rapidly toward this side.

In the Dark Elf's condition, it was simply impossible to resist.

Tian Jingling sighed in her heart and hurriedly shouted: "Stop, I forfeit!"

In the sky, Kailan moved her mind, and under her control, the trajectory of the dozens of spears changed slightly; over a dozen spears grazed directly past the Dark Elf's body and finally stuck fiercely into the Restriction wrapping the arena, causing violently twisting ripples.

The Dark Elf was clearly startled, her legs trembled involuntarily, and she collapsed limply onto the ground.

"In view of contestant Tian Jingling's forfeiture, this match is won by contestant Li Zhangsheng!"

Seeing this situation, the referee announced the result of the match.

After an intense battle, Kailan ultimately completed a one-versus-three with force, helping Li Zhangsheng achieve victory.

"Well done, Kailan!"

Li Zhangsheng flew down and vigorously ruffled Kailan's long green hair.

"Li Zhangsheng, I won!"

Kailan could not help but be excited; her voice carried a tremor. This was the first time she had achieved such a satisfying victory, especially since her opponent's strength was not weak.

In the spectator stands, Luo Jie said to Xu Xiangzhi, "I told you! Brother Li would definitely achieve the final victory!"

"I just didn't expect him to be so powerful. The 46th place on the Hidden Dragon Ranking was no match for him at all. No, I must strive to catch up, otherwise the gap between us will only grow wider. Enough talk, I'm going back to train!"

Xu Xiangzhi sighed and left with hurried steps.

"Wait for me, let's train together!"

Hearing Xu Xiangzhi say this, Luo Jie felt anxious and hurriedly chased after him to leave.

He was only at the Second Rank now and needed to strive to catch up even more, otherwise he feared he wouldn't even be able to touch Li Zhangsheng's shadow.

It wasn't just Luo Jie and Xu Xiangzhi; many people present had the same thought, with the number of people from Yuanling Academy being the highest among them.

After applying healing medicine to the Dark Elf, Tian Jingling approached Li Zhangsheng with a look of unwillingness. With a wave of her right hand, five crystal coffins appeared on the ground.

Inside each crystal coffin lay the corpse of a Moon Elf.

"I only brought this many with me. Give me some time, and I will bring the remaining 25 over. What do you think?"

Tian Jingling lowered her head slightly. This duel had been a spur-of-the-moment decision, so naturally, she could not have been carrying so many Moon Elf corpses on her.

Furthermore, Tian Jingling couldn't help but feel a sting in her heart. Although her status allowed her to purchase Moon Elf corpses from her clan at a discounted price, 25 of them would cost at least 50,000 Soul Crystals.

Not everyone was Li Zhangsheng; for Tian Jingling, this was the rhythm of bankruptcy.

Li Zhangsheng pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "That's fine. About how long will it take?"

"Give me one month!"

"Since Miss Tian can obtain a large number of Moon Elf corpses, your status within the Tian Clan must be quite high."

Tian Jingling said with some pride, "My grandfather is a Supreme Clan Elder, and my father is the Clan Leader!"

Information like this, which was out in the open, could be easily found by anyone with a discerning eye; this was also the reason why Tian Jingling did not hide it.

Li Zhangsheng was secretly surprised by Tian Jingling's background. It was no wonder she could obtain so many Moon Elf corpses and possessed so many excellent Demon Pets; it turned out her background in the Huizhou Tian Clan was so profound.

"Miss Tian, I am willing to purchase Moon Elf corpses at a price of 3,000 Soul Crystals each. I wonder what you think of this?"

Li Zhangsheng stated his purpose directly. If Tian Jingling refused, he would have no choice but to go find Zu Yu or other channels to obtain Moon Elf corpses.

Because the market was monopolized by the Huizhou Tian Clan and the Yecheng Zu Clan, and these two major clans also engaged in hunger marketing, the price of various elf corpses within the Langya Kingdom had remained consistently high.

3,000 each was the market price for a Moon Elf corpse.

If it were the corpses of other elves, such as Dark Elves, Blood Elves, etc., their corpses would be much cheaper, which was mainly related to the difficulty of hunting these races and their population numbers.

"3,000 each!"

Tian Jingling's eyes lit up. If it were at this price, she could use her internal clan price to secretly earn the difference—earning 1,000 Soul Crystals per corpse. However, fleecing the clan like this always carried some risks.

Tian Jingling's eyes darted around. Thinking about how she was almost bankrupt, she couldn't help but feel tempted.

"It's possible, provided the quantity isn't too large. Also, you must keep it a secret."

Tian Jingling could not resist the temptation and finally agreed against her conscience.

"What about the corpses of the Moon Elf Royal Family?"

During that one transaction with Zu Yu, Zu Yu had still been short 5,000 Soul Crystals in the price difference and had been forced to use a Moon Elf Royal Family corpse to make up for it.

"7,000 each!"

Tian Jingling's eyes lit up. She naturally quoted a higher price, wanting to earn a larger difference; after all, Moon Elf Royal Family corpses were undoubtedly much rarer.

"If possible, then get as many Moon Elf Royal Family corpses as you can."

Li Zhangsheng did not haggle. Expecting a horse to run without letting it eat grass was simply impossible. As long as he could establish a stable trading channel with Tian Jingling, even if the price was inflated, he would have to accept it.

Moon Elf Royal Family corpses possessed a Concentrated Grade Sprite King Bloodline, while ordinary Moon Elves almost exclusively had only Pure Grade bloodline concentration.

Looking at a 20% extraction rate, the former could yield two bowls of Spirit Essence, while the latter yielded less than half a bowl. No matter how you looked at it, the Moon Elf Royal Family corpses had a higher cost-performance ratio.

However, Moon Elves were famous for their slow reproduction and long growth cycles, which was the main reason their numbers were far inferior to other elf races. The number of Moon Elf Royal Family members was naturally even smaller, which was the main reason Li Zhangsheng did not give up on ordinary Moon Elf corpses even though he knew there was a significant gap in efficiency.

"But I don't have that much capital. You had better pay some deposit in advance."

"That's fine, here is a 20,000 deposit."

Li Zhangsheng nodded and tossed a bag to Tian Jingling.

This bag contained 200 Medium-grade Soul Crystals, which, at a conversion rate of 1:100, was equivalent to 20,000 Low-grade Soul Crystals.

After confirming no one was around, Tian Jingling accepted the deposit with peace of mind.

Her expression became a bit more excited, and her heart pounded, fluttering like a frightened deer. This was her first time fleecing her clan, and it gave her an inexplicable sense of stimulation.

However, given her status, even if the clan discovered it, she would not receive a very heavy punishment.

"Then I'll be going first. Wait for my good news in a month!"

Tian Jingling did not stay long and soon disappeared from Li Zhangsheng's field of vision.

At this moment, Ning Bizhen appeared before Li Zhangsheng with an inexplicable smile.

With Ning Bizhen's strength, even if Tian Jingling had intended to observe, she still wouldn't have been able to detect her.

"Bizhen, you are currently in charge of the Academy's trade. If it's convenient, please keep an eye out for some things for me."

Li Zhangsheng shamelessly handed a list to Ning Bizhen, which detailed a large number of item names.

Ning Bizhen was in charge of trade and could utilize the manpower and channels of Yuanling Academy, so the efficiency of searching would naturally be very high.

"Alright!"

Ning Bizhen naturally agreed, but when she saw the items listed on the list, she couldn't help but feel her scalp tingle and didn't want to look any further.

"I'll give you some more Soul Crystals in a few days."

After paying Tian Jingling the deposit, Li Zhangsheng did not have many Soul Crystals left, and most of them were Low-grade Soul Crystals.

Once the Starry Sky Auction House held its auction, the Bronze dragon cub alone could sell for six figures of Soul Crystals.

Clang, clang, clang~

Just as the two were preparing to return to Yuanling Academy, the iconic large bell in the center of the Pengcheng Academy District suddenly began to toll, its sound echoing throughout the entire Academy District like a funeral knell.

From the time he enrolled until now, this was the first time Li Zhangsheng had heard such a bell, so he could not help but look toward Bizhen at his side with confusion.

Ning Bizhen, who had previously been smiling charmingly, saw her expression change abruptly; the smile on her face vanished completely, and her entire face tightened, filled with gravity and tension.
