All at once, Ling Hong's gaze as he looked at Ling Hong was glowing, he kept feeling that Lonemoon could always, from time to time, reveal some unbelievable ability.

On the other hand, Lonemoon looked slightly upset, he had specially circled the entire academy, wanting to find the location of that spirit seed, unfortunately he still came back empty-handed. He could not help but suspect the authenticity of the prize, was the spirit seed really in the academy?

“Ling Hong!” He spoke up for confirmation, no longer able to hold back.

“Ah! Ah?” Ling Hong faltered for a moment before reacting. “Please speak.”

“I heard that the prize for this competition is a rainbow-colored egg?”

“Mm.” He recalled for a moment then nodded and said. “Seems so. It is said that this egg is full of Immortal Qi, if one can get it, it might boost one's cultivation greatly.”

“Oh, such a magical egg exists? Have you seen it before?”

“I haven't.” He shook his head honestly. “But this egg was something that Teacher got by chance when he went to the Flame Mountain in the North on a mission.” His expression darkened at the thought of something. “My big brother, also injured his legs then.”

“I see. Sorry that I brought it up.”

“No no no.” He shook his head, not minding at all. “Thanks to you, my brother has already drank the medication and will recover soon, we no longer have to worry. By the way, if you are curious about that rainbow colored egg, three days later, during the second round of the competition, the teachers will officially announce the prize, by then you will be able to get a look at it.”

“Oh.” Lonemoon paused for a moment, concealing the brightness in his eyes, he nodded. Feeling assured, he immediately changed the topic of conversation, bringing up something else. As long as they would get to see the spirit seed, seems they would be able to confirm three days later, whether that was what they were searching for.

Three days later.

The second round of the league.

Early morning, all the participants who passed the first round were already at Immortal Spirit Academy, compared to the huge crowds the previous time, the amount of people here were more than 10 times less. In total, there were only 75 participants who had passed the first round, together with the teachers from the various academies, there were still less than 200 people present, it seemed slightly desolate.

This time, the arena was no longer outdoors but inside the Immortal Spirit Academy. Lonemoon and gang went with Ling Hong and the others, compared to being ignored previous time, once they stepped in this time, a good number of people enthusiastically came over to greet them, they were obviously the customers from the previous time. Lonemoon responded to everyone with a smile, with occasional short conversations, in a short while, the voice that announced the rules of the competition sounded from above.

The few teachers from Immortal Spirit Academy appeared on the podium, Lonemoon swept his gaze across, he did not see the Teacher Yan from the previously time. Ling Hong was right, they were indeed starting to announce the prize of the competition. For the top three places, the prizes for the second and third place was a superior-grade artifact, and first place indeed gets the rainbow colored egg. Almost in the same moment when the colored egg was revealed, Ling Hong sensed a faintly discernible trace of the aura of the original source on it.

“Shen Ying.” Lonemoon nudged the person beside him. “Is this it?”

“Mm, yes… I guess?” Shen Ying lifted her head for a glance and cocked her head to a side.

“Do we act now?” Yi Qing spoke through the voice transmission.

Light frowned, turning to look at Ling Hong and the others beside them, he shook his head after a second. “Forget it, since we've confirmed that it's the spirit seed and we've also made it into the second round, why don't we win this prize fairly and squarely, it's just having to waste some time, no need to implicate other people.”

The master and disciple also exchanged a look, then glanced at Ling Hong and the rest and nodded. Indeed, if her were to act now, Ling Hong and gang would definitely be taken to be their accomplices, it'd be better to win the competition and obtain the prize openly.

The start was announced after a short briefing of rules, the second round was very simple. Everyone will enter the maze before them, those who were able to find the exit in six hours will advance.

Lonemoon used his divine perception to examine the maze and realized that it was a maze formed up of various array formations, the deeper inside, the more complicated it was. He brought out several communication talismans after some thought and handed it out. “The moment we step in, we will definitely be transported to different locations on the edges. Use this to communicate then, we will gather before anything else, don't act rashly.” With that said, he turned back and emphasized while looking at Shen Ying, “Especially you!”

“Huh?” Shen Ying looked very innocent.

“Huh what huh!” Do you have no f*cking idea how much dark history you have?” The eye of this maze array formation should be right in the middle. After we enter, don't move blindly, just stay in your spot and wait, after we have gathered, we will then move to the eye of the array formation together, never ever act rashly!”

“Okay.” Alright, you're the daddy, we'll listen to you, she then took the talisman.

At this time, the gates of the maze were already open, the four of them inhaled deeply and walked in. Almost in an instant, they saw a white light flash before their eyes and in the next moment, they'd arrived in a completely different scenery.

Lonemoon looked around, both Chef and Shen Ying had disappeared, they'd indeed been transported to different locations. After checking his surroundings with his divine perception, he then activated the communication talisman in his hand.

“I'm on the border of the entrance on the west side, where are all of you, state your locations.”

“I'm on the border on the east side.” Chef's voice came through.

“I… I should be on the southern side.” Buggy also replied.

“How about Shen Ying?” Not hearing her reply for a long time, Lonemoon called out directly, “Where are you?”

A voice came through the communication talisman moments later. “I…” Shen Ying looked around, totally don't know, hence she turned towards the person beside her. “Big brother, where is this?”

The man opposite her replied with slightly complicated feelings. “The eye of the array.”

“Oh, thank you!” Shen Ying nodded before answering, “Father Niu, I'm at the eye of the array.”

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Buggy: “…”

How exactly did she do it, get transported to the end point right away!

“Wait there, don't go anywhere!” Father Niu instructed before ending the communication.

“Okay.” Shen Ying then calmly put away the talisman and calmly found a rock to sit down, calmly brought out her melon seeds and started nibbling on them, then even handed some to the person beside her. “Want some?”

Yan Luo who was guarding the array: “…”

With Yan Luo's cultivation, he actually need not come personally to guard the array. But the incident from the qualifiers a few days ago still left him a little confused. Though Ren Qing's words should be taken with a grain of salt, but deep down, he'd still had some doubts with regards to that Invincible Academy. So with the thought of investigating thorough, he swapped with the teacher who was supposed to guard the array at the very last minute to come in.

He'd come in with the thought of wanting to test the capabilities of Lonemoon and the others and even specially chose the eye of the array. His thinking was that if they were truly capable, they would definitely charged through and make their way here, by then he will act and change up the array formations, then whether they had cheated in the previous round, he would be able to know once he tested their capabilities. Of course, if they didn't even have the ability to make it to the center of the array, then all the more nothing else needs to be said
