After that, quite a number of outer disciples exited Mount Luofu one after another. Each of the young disciples was injured, some of them more seriously injured than the others, but all of them underwent changes in their temperament compared to their young and inexperienced self before entering the mountain.

A month of training that involved blood and killing was enough to make them grow.

“How many have returned?” Elder Xu asked.

“110. I’ve tabulated the results,” answered Ling.

Right after she said that, another three figures exited the forest. The impressive people were Du Jia, as well as Ning Xia and Zuo Taofei, who were known as little warlords at Tianyuan Academy.

“We’re back.” Du Jia still had a graceful bearing and had no trace of blood on her at all, which was extraordinary. There was a sense of aestheticism in her elegance. Her fair skin was spotless, and she looked so composed as if a month of training had not changed her at all.

Ning Xia and Zuo Yaofei were unperturbed and arrogant as usual. They sneered when they noticed the other disciples who were terribly wounded.

“Du Jia, 100 low-level demonic cores, 80 middle-level demonic cores, and 20 high-level demonic cores! Hiss…This is quite an excellent result.” The middle-aged man had admiration for Du Jia after checking her treasure pouch because her result was the best so far.

Afterward, he proceeded to check Ning Xia and Du Yaofei’s results.

“Ning Xia, 108 low-level demonic cores, 75 middle-level demonic cores, and 27 high-level cores!

“Zuo Yaofei, 100 demonic cores, 69 middle-level demonic cores, and 22 high-level cores!”

Upon hearing the middle-aged man reporting Du Jia, Ning Xia, and Zuo Yaofei’s results, the other disciples gasped and looked at them respectfully. Their results proved that they were the cream of the crop, and the other disciples knew that they were not a match for them.

In fact, even Elder Xu, Ling, Leng Jianyun, and the middle-aged man thought highly of them. The three disciples were worthy of becoming inner disciples due to their quality and strength, and they had a bright future in the inner sect as they were talented.

Du Jia, Ning Xia, and Zuo Yaofei stood aside. The two young men lifted their chins proudly when the others looked at them respectfully and enviously, whereas Du Jia stood quietly while looking at the forest.

“He’s not out yet. Did he die inside? It’s such a pity. I wanted to see the fruit of your hard work.” Du Jia had a scornful look in her eyes.

As time ticked away, another two hours had passed, but there was no movement from the forest.

This time, Ning Xia was anxious. “Wan Qinghe’s not out yet. Did he die? Based on his strength, ordinary demonic beasts can’t hurt him at all.”

Zuo Yaofei curled his lip. “Tsk, you can never be sure. Wan Qinghe’s a conceited person, so he might’ve provoked a demonic beast on the Qi Plundering Boundary but ended up being killed.”

Ning Xia smirked. Although they were quite close to Wan Qinghe, it was only superficial for the three of them to compete with each other openly and covertly to be on the top so often. Besides, if one of them was dead, the competition between them would reduce once they were in the Tianshan Sword Sect.

Therefore, the two of them were not too surprised that Wan Qinghe was possibly dead.

“Oh right, I heard that Dong Hao and Nangong Ye were killed, and Chen Ran was crippled. What do you think about this?” Ning Xia suddenly asked.

“So what?” Zuo Yaofei was unbothered.

On the other hand, Du Zi’s eyes twitched as though she thought about something, and she seemed shocked.

Ning Xia chuckled. “Do you remember that Dong Hao and Ji Mi made a bet a month ago before we entered Mount Luofu?”

Zuo Yaofei recalled something with the help of Ning Xia’s reminder, and he was stunned. “Are you saying that Ji Mo killed Dong Hao? Are you kidding me? I know Dong Hao and the others very well, and they’re not weak at all. Chen Ran’s exceptionally talented that he’s even trained as an important seedling, so if they join hands, you and I might not be able to touch them at all, let alone Ji Mo.

“But they really died, and instead of being hurt by a demonic beast, it seems like they were killed by someone, which is evident since Chen Ran was crippled. Moreover, Xia Jiaojiao and Ling’er are nowhere to be found, so it’s likely that they came to a bad end too,” Ning Xia expressed with a frown on his face.

“That doesn’t prove that it was Ji Mo’s doing. I’ve heard of that fella before, and he only has a third-tier tempered body after being in the academy for two years. Even though his strength improved a little lately with Huo Lin’er’s help, it’s impossible for him to have killed Dong Hao and the others by himself.” Zuo Yaofei could not believe what he heard.

Ning Xia eventually became unconvinced too. “That’s true…Dong Hao and the others probably died from an accident. Ji Mo’s not out yet anyway, so it’s probable that he died too.”

While they conversed, Du Jia stood aside without saying a word. She furrowed her eyebrows as if she was in deep thought.

“Look! Someone’s out,” someone shouted all of a sudden.

Everyone looked toward the forest at the same time. After waiting for a few hours, they thought that nobody else survived, thus they were shocked when someone walked out of the forest.

Elder Xu, Leng Jianyun, Ling, and the middle-aged man stared at the figure at the same time.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the figure approached them, everyone finally saw that it was a teen who appeared to be bathed in blood. The young man was extremely thin, but he was carrying two huge creatures that were the size of elephants which also had tough scales. On top of that, the two creatures amounted to more than 1,000 kilograms, yet the teen was carrying them.

Since the teen was carrying heavy items, each step he took caused a deafening sound. He looked very relaxed even with the huge burdens on his body such that only his footsteps became heavier.

“It’s really him! He didn’t die!” Du Jia was the first who recognized the thin figure, and she exclaimed subconsciously.

“It’s Ji Mo! He really came out!”

“Oh my god, what is he carrying? Are those the carcasses of demonic beasts? The beasts are huge! They must be high-level demonic beasts!”

“He’s so powerful! The carcasses probably weigh more than 1,000 kilograms in total. Did he really carry them out like that?”

“Is that the good-for-nothing young master from the Ji family? Why is he so strong? I heard that his cultivation base is very low and that he doesn’t even have a fifth-tier tempered body. Why is he so strong?!”

Quite a number of people in Tianyuan Academy knew of Ji Mo, hence they were appalled when they saw him carrying two hefty creatures while being covered in blood.

Even Elder Xu, Ling, and the middle-aged man fixed their gaze on the gaunt young man.

Under the watch of everyone else, the teen made his way to the crowd, then threw the two huge creatures on the flow.

Bam, bam!

The weighty creatures caused a deep hole on the ground.

“These are… A Lihuo rhino and a green-scaled leopard! These are two demonic beasts that are going to advance to the Qi Plundering Boundary!”

Some disciples exclaimed when they saw the carcasses on the floor. After roaming around Mount Luofu for a month, they knew by heart how the demonic beasts were scattered in the mountain. A number of them had actually encountered the two powerful beasts during their hunt, but because the beasts were a step away from the Qi Plundering Boundary, the disciples decided to avoid them.

As such, they were in awe when they saw the demonic beasts’ carcasses in front of them.

“Disciple Ji Mo reporting for my return.” Ji Mo inhaled a little as he looked at Elder Xue calmly. He had curbed his aura, so the others could not tell how much power was actually stored in his veiled power.
