Chapter 325: Nine Abysses

“What? You don’t want the jade pendant?”

All stared at Ye Zifeng in shock, be it the students or Elder Suo.

Ye Zifeng continued with a light laugh, “Yes, I don’t deserve such a precious treasure. Whoever wants it can make an offer.”

To Ye Zifeng, unlike a saving medallion that could help one escape immediately, the jade pendant was of little value as by the time Elder Suo sensed the signal and came to rescue, he would be a dead man already.

Besides, his whereabouts would be easily detected if he carried the jade pendant as Elder Suo had infused his spirit into it, which would somehow hinder his plans.

As expected, the silent crowd was stirred upon his words.

“500 gold coins!”

“I want it too! 800 gold coins!”

“You stupid guys! Is gold more important than life? I offer 1,000 gold coins!”

Ye Xueyi pulled her brother aside and persuaded in a low voice, “Brother, what the hell are you talking about? You can gain more chance of survival with the jade pendant on. Countless students are desperate to get it but just could figure out a way. Why did you just give it up? Is gold more important than your life?”

“1,000 gold coins? Then you win the bid!” said Ye Zifeng with a light smile. He then somehow rubbed the pendant in his palm. Quite confusing!

“Brother Zifeng, did you hear me?” Ye Xueqi grumbled with her mouth pouted. Her anger was visible to all.

Ye Zifeng, however, ignored his sister. He just handed the jade pendant to the one who shouted the loudest then took the bag with 1,000 gold coins and threw it into his storage bad after casually weighing it in hand.

“Brother Zi Feng!” Ye Xueyi bitted the words one by one to express her rage.

As for the one who got the pendant, he just exclaimed with joy, “Excellent! I finally have someone to protect myself.”

There were naturally some who had awakened their martial spirits came from rich families. For them, life mattered more to them than gold coins.

Therefore, all students present stared enviously at the young boy who just bought the jade pendant while the next moment, they all turned to others holding the “saving jade”, their intentions obvious to all.

Those who had the pendant, though trembling in fear, still refused to sell it after thorough ponderation.

Men as daring and quick as Ye Zifeng were few.

“Nonsense! How dare you…”

Elder Suo watched all this in a daze as his anger brewed. He would definitely stop the exchange if not for Ye Zifeng’s completing it in a split second.

Ye Zifeng took a step forward with his hands cupped after sensing Elder Suo’s bursting rage, “Elder Suo, please forgive me if I’ve done anything improper. But if we don’t get pass the formation at the entrance soon, I’m afraid we may have to wait for another five years before the Nine Abysses opens again.”

“How come you know there is a formation at the entrance?” asked Elder Suo with all his lecture chocked by Ye Zifeng’s remind. He just felt extremely grumpy with no chance to vent his anger out.

“Daoist Master Suo, is it true that there is a formation and time limit to get through it?”

“Yes! And I wonder where the hell did Ye Zifeng learn it?” answered Elder Suo with a gloomy glance at the talkative attendant.

But the next second he raised his head and scanned all the students, “Alright, time is running out. Team up as you like and get through the formation now. All those failing to enter the Nine Abysses will be disqualified for the hunting competition. Now I announce the hunting competition for demonic pets begins!”

The hearts of all students jolted upon hearing ‘be disqualified’. They all looked into the Nine Abysses and readied their mind for entering.

“Big Brother Rough Guy, I’m here.” Liu Bingqian flew merrily to Ye Zifeng after forcing her way out of the crowd.

Her cheeks flushed and her gaze avoided that of Ye Zifeng out of the embarrassment caused by his words. But she soon relaxed after seeing the Ye Zifeng’s calmness.

Ye Xueyi greeted with chuckle, “Sister Bingqian, why are you so late?”

“I too wanted to be here earlier…yet as a disciple of Fairy Feng, I have to be in their group. Not until now before the competition begins did I manage to get out.”

Ye Zifeng smiled with a light nod, “Bingqian, you are not late.”

“Thanks for your understanding, Big Brother Rough Guy!”

“I mean someone is even later than you,” explained Ye Zifeng as he raised his head to gesture the two girls, glimmer flashing across his eyes.

Walking toward them were a girl and a boy respectively in black and white.

They were no other but Qingxuan and Xinghui.

Qinghui chuckled, “Ye Zifeng, do you mind we two joining your group for the competition?”

“I knew you would say so.”

“Then your answer is…” asked Qingxuan with interest.

Ye Zifeng smiled, “Of course. A team of give is perfect. One more member may cause management problems, while one less could not give full play to the value of teaming up. Now that you all trust me, then follow me.”

Upon hearing his words, some couldn’t help but sneer.

“Look! A guy who hasn’t awakened his martial spirits is actually leading four awakened? Isn’t that funny?”

“Bah! Ye Zifeng is just nothing but an unweaned baby! He truly knows how to boast himself with all that bullshit. I’ll see how he ends up in the beast’s belly with his jade pendant sold. So avaricious and arrogant he is!”

“You all stop that nonsense!” berated Ye Xueyi with furious glare. She wanted to rush over to teach them some manners but was pulled back by Ye Zifeng with a smile.

Ye Zifeng took an unfathomable glance over their robes, the same as the uniforms of Discipline Hall. Thus, they were half-martial-brothers of Wang Tianzhi.

Wearing that unfathomable smile Ye Zifeng turned several times to look at where Wang Tianzhi stood, who avoided his eyes for several times.

“Brother, I can’t bear to hear they speak ill of you!”

“Can’t bear? The thing is those…” Ye Zifeng pointed to a place first then another as he talked, “…and those there, I bet they think basically the same. Yet they just didn’t speak out.”

Having looking right into her brother’s eyes for quite a while, Ye Xuening nodded slightly as if she had realized something.

“Brother, did you sense something with your innate divine talent?”

“That we can put aside for the moment. What I truly meant with those words is that we don’t have to provoke everywhere and make trouble. The top priority for us is to hunt down spirit or profound level demonic pets, understood?” said Ye Zifeng with a light smile, not answering her question about innate divine talent.

“I got it…” Ye Xueyi unwillingly accepted her brother’s words, only with her mouth pursed a bit.

Actions speak louder than words.

The best way to stop the villain from badmouthing was to get stronger.

“Haha! Ye Zifeng, you’re such a coward to not even dare to refute. And you even dream of hunting demonic pets of spirit and profound levels? Ridiculous! I’ll bow at your feet if you can do it!” sneered Chen Wenyuan before he led some of his friends into the formation with a wave of his hand. “Everyone! Follow up!”

Ye Zifeng just shook his head. He just could understand why some many strangers who he had never known before would set themselves against him as if merely doing so could help them gain a sense of superiority.

Taking a deep breath, he said, “Well then. The entrance formation to the Nine Abysses is about to close. Hurry up!”

With that, he strode right ahead, while the rest of his team members followed right after him in two lines after exchanging glances with one another.

The moment they stepped into the formation there came a dazzling light, with pure white frog and freezing air enveloping them five.

The next moment they five appeared in a new place after a burst of light beam and the freezing air dispersed.

Here they were in the Nine Abysses.

“Xueyi, you woke up?” asked Ye Zifeng smilingly. He had already walked around the place.

“Yeah, where…” Ye Xueyi touched her forehead and raised her head to look around, only to find the rest three asleep just like she did.

She had seen the Nine Abysses from the outside that it was covered with skeletons. Yet the truth was far better than she had expected, which somehow relived her mind.

“So we are in Nine Abysses now? It looks much better than I thought.” Gently Ye Xueyi smiled as she held an ancient tree to stand up.

Suddenly, change occurred!
