Chapter 74: True-Body Descend One
Translator: 549690339
It was Zheng Yifan, the horoom teacher of Class Two, who eventually made the suggestion:
“How about this, if it’s successful, Yan Renjie and student Wan Ying each get a bit of Divinity, a small part of a High-Level Demigod’s body, a quarter of the Sanctuary, a quarter of the Snake People Demigod’s Treasure House, and besides that one Mythical Quality Card and that Legendary Quality Card, an extra ten random Five Star Cards for them to split?”
After he spoke, his tone beca sowhat embarrassed because the look Wu Hai was giving him made him feel sowhat self-conscious.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Hai imdiately vetoed:
“Are you joking?”
Zheng Yifan tried to hide his embarrassnt with a ‘hehe’ and said:
“Then how do you think it should be divided?”
Wu Hai didn’t answer imdiately but instead relayed Zheng Yifan’s words to Lin Xiao, saying:
“However you want to divide it, teacher supports you.”
Lin Xiao didn’t get angry upon hearing this. Bargaining, after all, is like his horoom teacher protecting him; it’s only natural for other teachers to advocate for the interests of their students.
He pondered for a mont, didn’t answer the question, but instead asked sothing unrelated:
“Teacher, could you save from the hands of an injured High-Level Demigod?”
“I an, if I were to Invoke my True Body and fight with the Snake People High-Level Demigod, could you save if I were to fail and get caught by the Snake People High-Level Demigod?”
Wu Hai’s eyes imdiately bulged in astonishnt as he asked:
“You’re thinking of Invoking your True Body and going it alone?”
Lin Xiao nodded firmly:
“Yes, 1 want to try it with my own strengths.”
It was a joke that the two of them had just arrived and were asking for half of the share; he was not pleased.
“This…”
Wu Hai hesitated for a mont, still astonished, surprised at his student’s audacity, but mostly impressed. He had not expected this usually quiet and low-profile student to possess such courage.
Throughout history, anyone who achieved greatness had to possess extraordinary bravery.
Opportunities never fell from the sky; they had to be seized, much like the thirteen brave students in the school’s history who, during their first-year final exams, dared to make a move against a High-Level Demigod. Regardless of success or failure, as long as they did not fall midway, each beca a legendary figure in the school’s history.
Because they not only had outstanding talents but also trendous courage, daring to seize and create opportunities, and thus rapidly rising to prominence.
In Lin Xiao, he saw this precious quality.
Combining this with the talents he had previously witnessed, as well as the ability to create a new Race at such a young age, he was very optimistic about this student’s future prospects.
He nodded emphatically and said:
“I greatly admire your courage and thoughts, teacher can tell you clearly, you can confidently and boldly implent your plan, according to the rules the teacher can’t help you, but I can promise to protect you at the most critical mont, you can be at ease.”
“That’s great!”
Lin Xiao still trusted the promise from a High-Level Demigod.
“Then please tell the two horoom teachers my decision to take action myself; there’s no need to trouble the two students.”
On the Divine Artifact Platform, Wu Hai watched his colleagues’ confused and incredulous expressions with a smile, feeling very pleased. He then said:
“My student has asked to thank you both for your kind intentions!”
No sooner had his voice faded than his two colleagues could reply, the horoom teachers began to discuss heatedly, and Vice Principal Xu’s eyes lit up as he exclaid with approval:
“Good, that’s courageous!”
At that mont, his fondness for this student, whom he hadn’t heard much about before, grew dramatically, and he said:
“His boldness is comndable and should be affird. The school mustn’t fail to show its support. Relay to Lin Xiao that I, the principal, will hold off the Sea God for him, so he can focus on completing this task. Furthermore, if he manages to accomplish it, he will get to choose the card types for the task reward—a golden mythical card, an orange legendary card, and ten five-star cards of random quality, rather than them being random.”
As the vice principal spoke, it was the turn of the horoom teachers of classes one and two to feel awkward. The two exchanged glances, and Zheng Yifan said to Wu Hai:
“About that, I misspoke earlier. What 1 ant was, if the task is successful, my student Yan Renjie and Wan Ying from class one would each share only a bit of their Divinity, and…”
He paused, swallowed the rest of his sentence, and chuckled:
“They don’t lack other things; they just lack Divinity. If successful, they’d only need to share a little bit of Divinity. Brother, could you discuss this with Lin Xiao? It’s less challenging for three people to cooperate than one person alone; the success rate is higher, and the loss smaller. Lin Xiao certainly doesn’t want his Clan to be wiped out. After success, they would only need to share a bit of Divinity with each other, and the rest would belong entirely to Lin Xiao.”
After hearing what the teacher had conveyed, Lin Xiao pondered seriously for a mont before replying with only one sentence:
“Do they dare to have their True Bodies Descend and enter the Sanctuary with ?”
“True Bodies Descend and enter the Demigod Sanctuary?”
Yan Renjie and Wan Ying were both stunned for a while after receiving the ssage from their horoom teachers, and it took a while for them to understand what was happening from their teachers. Shocked yet tempted, they imdiately nodded in agreent:
“We are willing!”
“Will you follow my lead during the action?”
“Yes!”
“Then good, have them co over imdiately.”
What made Lin Xiao change his mind was the worry that his Clan would be wiped out in this battle.
With this, the matter was settled.
With the vice principal as a witness, Yan Renjie and Wan Ying agreed to cooperate with him to complete the task. The vice principal made an exception allowing their cooperative effort to count as completing the task, which normally isn’t the case, as a task is limited to individual players and can’t be completed in cooperation.
Although it ant giving up two points of Divinity, having two collaborators to share the pressure and risk made this little sacrifice worth it.
Lin Xiao wasn’t stubborn about completing it solo to hoard all the rewards. His initial desire to do it alone had a lot to do with their wish to take nearly half of the spoils of war.
He definitely couldn’t bear parting with half the spoils, but if it were just a bit of Divinity, that was a different story.
The Snake People Demigod corpse, the Sanctuary, treasures accumulated over thousands of years by the Demigod, a golden mythical quality five-star card of specified type, an orange legendary quality five-star card of specified type, and ten five-star cards of specified type with random quality—these potential gains were quite extravagant.
The old saying goes that eating alone can lead to overindulgence or envy from others. Sharing a little can be a part of human decency.
Therefore, he specifically proposed that the two also have their True Bodies Descend, to join him with their Clan’s mbers to act together.
If the success rate of taking down the Sanctuary and killing the Snake People Demigod alone stood between forty and fifty percent, which was less than half, then the success rate with the three of them cooperating would rise to above eighty percent. With careful planning, it was almost a certainty.
The cooperation was officially established through the communication of the three horoom teachers, under the envious eyes of the other teachers.
There was no helping it—none of the seven other horoom teachers had students of comparable talent to participate in this feast.
The Clans of Yan Renjie and Wan Ying would be teleported over by their horoom teachers, while Lin Xiao also prepared for his True-Body Descend. He instructed his Clan to construct a rudintary altar behind the battlefield, where a group of devout followers began to pray around it..
