Linhai city center, underground of the Spirit Master Association.
"Creak!"
The huge bronze door made a dull sound.
Luo Tang walked out of it.
The scene in front of me gradually turned from blurry to clear.
Luo Tang quickly looked around and saw a slightly familiar sight.
"came back……"
This is the first time Luo Tang has returned to Linhai since he entered the hunting ground to practice for seven days.
There was no one else in the hall except Luo Tang.
According to what Xu Wenxing and others said before.
There should be someone here to greet me.
"I guess there are other things that have delayed me."
Luo Tang guessed that Zhang Chenghua and the others might have other things to do, so they didn't come here.
Following the route in his memory, Luo Tang was about to leave.
"Huh? Little guy, you are... that, what's your name... Luo Tang, right?"
There was a rumbling sound of questions coming from behind.
Luo Tang turned around and looked.
It was discovered that two huge eyeballs had appeared on the bronze door that had just been closed. It was the same door senior that he had seen when he first entered the hunting ground.
"Senior, it's me."
Luo Tang responded with his hands raised.
"I know. Let me ask you, little guy, have you ever encountered anything weird in the hunting grounds? For example, you suddenly become excited, or... you suddenly have clear thoughts, a clear mind, etc.?"
There was doubt in the urn's voice.
Luo Tang's brows gradually wrinkled along with the question.
High?
Thoughts are clear?
Clear mind?
What does it mean?
Luo Tang thought for a moment but couldn't come up with any results, so he raised his hands and moved forward.
"I'm sorry, Senior Men, I don't understand what you mean. Can you explain it in detail?"
After speaking, Luo Tang looked forward.
He found that Senior Men was looking at him like this and did not continue to speak.
A long while passed.
"Oh... forget it, I can't tell. You can go back. The two boys here told me that there is someone waiting for you outside. Just follow them."
The senior doorman sighed.
Although Luo Tang had doubts, seeing that the senior sect himself couldn't explain clearly, he didn't ask any more questions.
He cupped his hands, turned around and walked out.
Luo Tang left quickly, leaving only this lonely bronze door in the hall.
After a moment of silence, the senior doorman sounded confused again.
"Strange...how come I sense the old guy's aura on this kid?"
…
Through the long corridor, Luo Tang came outside.
As soon as he walked out of the corridor, he saw a person in front of him greeting him.
Wang Jian, the deacon of the Spiritual Masters Association.
"Classmate Luo, you're out."
"Deacon Wang."
Luo Tang greets you.
Wang Jian smiled and nodded.
"I haven't seen you for seven days. I think Luo's strength has improved a lot in the hunting ground."
"President Zhang asked me to wait for Student Luo here, let's go."
Luo Tang nodded and followed.
While talking to Wang Jian, he entered the elevator.
Soon, we came to the ground.
"President Xu rushed to the front line of Yueluo Mountain?"
Luo Tang frowned.
He just learned from Wang Jian.
Some time ago, a general-level monster appeared on Yueluo.
After Xia Liang killed him, he thought that the strongest demon in Linhai had been killed.
Unexpectedly, two general-level demons appeared yesterday.
Xia Liang was at a disadvantage with one against two, but fortunately he had no obvious injuries.
This morning Xu Youcheng had already set off to provide support.
"Not bad, after this week's search."
"A large number of demons were discovered on the Yueluo Mountain. Commander Xia has led his men to kill many of them."
"But there are still a lot of them, and two general-level demons appeared yesterday."
"President Zhang had something going on here and couldn't leave for the time being, so President Xu went."
Luo Tang nodded silently as he listened.
He didn't know if these were related to the identity of the Night Shadow Demon.
…
Imperial Capital, Bai Family Manor in the western suburbs.
Inside the pavilion.
Bai Xiujie accompanied a white-haired old man to play chess in the pavilion.
At first, Bai Xiujie had the absolute upper hand.
As time went by, Bai Xiujie made a 'wrong' move, and Bai Xiujie's winning streak gradually disappeared, and finally came to naught.
"My grandson lost. Second Grandpa has been resting for these years, and his chess skills have become better and better."
Bai Xiujie bowed and admitted defeat.
Bai Zhengqing, the second master of the Bai family, stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and laughed.
"Haha! As a human being, you don't have much to do in your free time. Fishing, fishing and playing chess are all the other hobbies left."
Bai Xiujie smiled and nodded, remembering the purpose of coming here, and asked while helping Bai Zhengqing collect the chess pieces.
"Second Grandpa, have you heard about what happened recently in the hunting ground?"
"I heard a little about it. Taotao and Yuxuan mentioned it to me the day before yesterday when they came back."
"Then what do you think of this?"
"What can I say...I have been retired for ten years, and now it is your uncle and your father who make the decision."
"However, I am still a little curious about the origin of the Overlord of Western Chu. Have you made any progress these days?"
After picking up the chess pieces, Bai Zhengqing smiled and wanted to play another game.
Bai Xiujie pondered for a moment, sorting out his thoughts in his mind.
"There has indeed been some progress, but I may need your help, Grandpa Second."
As soon as these words came out, the chess piece in Bai Zhengqing's hand suddenly stopped and he looked up and looked ahead.
Thinking of the previous situation, Bai Zhengqing reacted immediately.
"I'm telling you... why did you suddenly make the wrong step before? How dare you wait for me here, old man!"
"Second Grandpa, what are you talking about? Did my grandson make any mistakes before?"
Bai Xiujie looked confused.
Seeing this, Bai Zhengqing took a deep breath.
"You little fox... I'm an old man."
"Tell me what you want me to do for you."
Bai Zhengqing knew that the step just now was definitely made by Bai Xiujie.
The purpose of not admitting it is what is going to be said immediately.
"Don't there be some special quotas allocated to our families in the hunting grounds every year?"
"This year, our Bai family has six special quotas in addition to the quotas obtained by Yuxuan Taotao and others based on their strength. Previously, Second Grandpa, you took away these quotas and said they were given to an old friend."
"At that time, Second Grandpa, you said that it was difficult to reveal the identity of this old friend, so no one asked more questions."
"If it were before, this would be nothing, but now the association is investigating the whereabouts of every quota this year."
"I don't know, would it be convenient for Second Grandpa to tell me the identity of this old friend now?"
Bai Zhengqing frowned slightly when he heard this. He had already guessed what Bai Xiujie meant.
"Listen to what you mean... did the quota for the overlord of Western Chu come from the ones I gave out in the first place?"
"Yes, in the past three days, the Spirit Control Master Association has screened the quotas available in each major region of the federation, as well as the students allocated to these quotas."
"I found that there are no students who share the characteristics of the Overlord of Western Chu."
"Other than that, there is no screening for students who enter only for special quotas."
"But except for our family, all other families have given special quotas to their own clansmen, so the Overlord of Western Chu can only enter the hunting ground through the special quota of our Bai family."
Bai Xiujie and the others have been busy for a long time in the past three days and finally determined this range.
"Didn't you ask the seniors?"
"What Senior Men means is that the hunting ground training time has not yet come, and according to regulations, it cannot take back the consciousness scattered in various cities."
Hearing this, Bai Zhengqing fell into silence.
Li Xinhou's old face automatically appeared in his mind.
"Old man... I didn't expect you to hide it so deeply..."
