I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples Chapter 1414: Scheming in the Dark (1/3)

When the people from Mixed Spirit Academy left Xuanwu City to head to Tongtian City for the competition representing Tianji Continent,

most of the powers, such as Jingshan Academy, Wangyue Academy, Xuanwu Academy, did not leave.

Instead, they held a secret eting in the main hall of the Imperial Palace.

"Are we just going to let Mixed Spirit Academy leave without any issues?" An elder from a second-tier academy said with an ugly expression, "If we intercept them along the way, can’t we take their place in the competition for a spot?"

The people from other academies did not speak, they just quietly watched the representatives from Jingshan Academy, Wangyue Academy, and Xuanwu Academy.

After all, these three academies were the strongest here, and naturally, they took the lead.

"Intercept Mixed Spirit Academy, and then what?" The Vice Dean of Jingshan Academy asked indifferently.

The elder from the second-tier academy was slightly startled and hastily replied, "Isn’t it about taking their place in the spot competition?"

"Heh, and then what, fight among ourselves again for the spot?" The Vice Dean of Jingshan laughed mockingly, having long seen through the people of the Chaos Realm, as he himself was one of them.

The others’ faces stiffened.

"Setting aside whether or not we will compete for this spot, even if soone does seize it, who among you is confident in competing against the representative academies from the eastern, western, and southern parts for this spot?"

"If we can’t even overco Mixed Spirit Academy, what chance do we have in the competition for a spot?"

Everyone had a look of unwillingness but couldn’t refute it, after all, what the Vice Dean of Jingshan said was true—they had joined forces to besiege the Mixed Spirit Academy without success...

Moreover, according to reliable information, the representative of the eastern part was chanical College, an academy led by the Mo Family.

Although chanical College didn’t have much of a reputation before, the special nature of this Six Realms Academy exchange had prompted the best talents of the Mo Family to erge and beco competitors for chanical College!

Previously, chanical College only recruited rogue cultivators with talent in puppetry to provide fresh blood for the Mo Family.

The Family’s own people would not take part in it.

"What do you suggest then?"

The Vice Dean of Jingshan Academy sneered, "Wait until the competition for a spot is completely over, and then see who gets it; we focus on attacking them."

"And if we successfully besiege them and get the token for that place, how should it be distributed?"

The First Elder of the Wangyue Academy laughed and said, "It’s quite simple. We will gather the best talents from each academy in one academy, and then use that academy’s na to go in with the token."

Nine main competitors plus substitutes would be enough.

Hearing this proposal, everyone nodded their heads in agreent, "Let’s do it this way!"

The Emperor of Xuanwu Divine Dynasty, sitting at the head, also nodded at this plan and said, "This spot, we must secure!"

It was too important.

...

Tongtian City.

Located in the center of Tianji Continent.

Although it was not ho to any formidable powers or special resources,

Tongtian City had been historically endowed with great significance.

Usually, when there were major martial contests or academy exchanges, the finals would be set here.

Tongtian City was huge, at least twice the size of Xuanwu City.

Even so, it was now congested to the point of bursting, with dense crowds flooding the streets.

Because of the academy exchange, schools poured in from all sides, and so other powers were here to watch the excitent.

When the numbers of these two groups increased, so rchant associations and cultivators wanting to resell their treasures would set up booths here or hold auctions.

Thus, among them were not only spectators and competitors but also treasure hunters seeking rare finds.

There were still seven days until the spot competition.

After heading to the accommodations, Vice Dean Ming stayed behind, while the other students road the streets.

Qin Chi took action with two other personal disciples.

Blackie and others, Tan Zongzhao, and Gu Sheng acted together.

Oh right, except for Mu Fusheng.

Mu Fusheng had just arrived in Tongtian City and was ready to go check out good finds and investigate when he was caught by Jiu Bailu.

Jiu Bailu invited Mu Fusheng.

Mu Fusheng initially wanted to decline.

But who knows what Jiu Bailu said, Mu Fusheng eventually nodded in resignation and agreed to go along with her, amidst the ambiguous glances of the crowd.

The streets were too crowded, and there were many stalls.

No ordinary items were displayed on the stalls.

So much so that along the way, they had seen quite a few Divine Master and Divine Emperor Realm treasures, and even one or two from the Ancestral Realm!

"Are these only displayed on stalls like these? Don’t those rchant associations take them?" Shi Sheng wondered aloud.

Tan Zongzhao chuckled and explained, "It’s simple. Every ti Tongtian City has such a large competition, it draws cultivators from the entire Tianji Continent and many strong figures appear, boosting purchasing power."

"The spending ability of the strong is naturally higher than others, so those rchant associations, aiming to raise their level, generally don’t sell items below the Ancestral Realm in order to attract these strong figures and then make a fortune by organizing auctions."

Gu Sheng also laughed, holding a tree root and wearing a woven straw hat, "These rchant associations are really shrewd."

Blackie shrugged, "Then there’s no point in us looking around here; we have no use for items below the Ancestral Realm."

Gu Sheng waved his hand and replied, "That’s where you don’t understand the trick. Sotis, these stalls might have treasures that are hard for others to find, hence the term ’treasure hunting’."

Tan Zongzhao took out several tokens and said, "The auction won’t start until tomorrow anyway. Let’s just wander around today and see how our luck serves us."

anwhile, Lu Changsheng and Mo Yu were also strolling through the streets.

Lu Changsheng wore an expression of disdain, while Mo Yu’s face was filled with excitent.

Clearly, Lu Changsheng had been dragged here by Mo Yu.

There was no helping it; otherwise, this little girl would keep buzzing around him incessantly like a mosquito, which was unbearable.

Seeing Lu Changsheng’s expression, Mo Yu pouted and said, "Cheer up a bit, Master. Who knows, we might discover sothing great here!"

"Isn’t getting the best goods at the lowest price sothing to be happy about?"

Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes.

Treasure hunting here was less appealing than taking a nap.

He hadn’t had an afternoon nap in days!

However, as they were walking, Lu Changsheng suddenly let out a sound of interest.

Then he headed towards one of the stalls.

Mo Yu was stunned for a mont, then her face lit up with surprise, stars twinkling in her eyes.

Sothing that piqued her master’s interest was bound to be a great find!

This stall was surrounded by many people, and it displayed a variety of weapons and armors as well as array scrolls and dicinal pills.

The stall owner was an old man, with a wooden tablet standing beside him engraved with the words:

No bargaining.
