Peerless Battle Spirit Chapter 74 - Grand Invitation to the Disciples

Qin Nan did not linger around after leaving; he went straight back to the cave.

He had spent too much time here. Only four days were left until the conclusion of the Trial of Versatility.

Chu Yun and Xiao Leng had long been waiting for him at the cave.

Qin Nan quickly scanned the two and saw that their cultivations had greatly improved over the past few days, especially for Chu Yun, whose cultivation had reached the ninth-layer Body Tempering Realm. She had also mastered the Greater Success Stage of One with the Weapon, thus she was now stronger than someone like Childe Gloomy Rage.

As for Xiao Leng, with the help of the Martial Emperor’s cultivation notes, his comprehension of One with the Weapon had greatly improved too.

However, Chu Yun and Xiao Leng were astonished when they saw Qin Nan.

They could feel that even though Qin Nan’s aura was nothing different from an ordinary person’s, there was a nearly undetectable imperious pressure from him, causing the two of them to feel uneasy.

They could tell that Qin Nan’s strength had greatly improved over the past six days.

Having this thought, Chu Yun and Xiao Leng were curious about one thing, What had actually happened in those six days between Qin Nan and the mysterious old man?

“Only four days left.” Qin Nan did not waste any time and went straight for the main topic. He said in a deep tone, “We’ve got to find the Blue Dragon Badges. Now that our strength has greatly improved, we should split up to increase our chances of finding those Blue Dragon Badges.”

Saying this, Qin Nan felt a sense of helplessness.

Although he planned to reach the top three in this Trial of Versatility, he only possessed a piece of the map, which was far from enough to find the twenty hidden Blue Dragon Badges.

In other words, his current overwhelming power was not very useful at this moment.

Upon hearing these words, Chu Yun and Xiao Leng tried not to chuckle as Chu Yun spoke first with her pleasant voice, “Junior Brother Qin Nan, you probably don’t know yet, but something immense has happened over the past six days when you left. It seems like it will force us three to work together again.”

Qin Nan was stunned hearing this, before glancing confusedly at Xiao Leng.

Xiao Leng withdrew his smile and took out a letter made of animal hide from his waist, and said, “Brother Nan, have a look at this letter.”

Qin Nan took the letter and opened it. Following this, his expression changed slightly.

The letter read, “My name is Xiao Yunhe. I’m writing this letter on Senior Brother Ling Zixiao’s request. As we all know, only when the five pieces of the map are combined together can the remaining twenty Blue Dragon Badges be found. Currently, Senior Brother Ling Zixiao has two of the pieces, which means there are three pieces remaining. Therefore, I’m informing all disciples that if the map bearers are willing to bring the pieces to the center of the island, they will be given great rewards. As for the Blue Dragon Badges, all are welcomed to compete fairly.”

“How did you guys receive this letter? And who is this Xiao Yunhe?” Qin Nan took a deep breath before asking the questions.

This cave we are in was quite hidden from outside; ordinary disciples would never discover it. What kind of sorcery did this Xiao Yunhe have to send the letter here?

And from the letter, it seemed like this Xiao Yunhe was able to distributed this letter to all the disciples.

The Island of Versatility was a thousand miles wide, with the disciples appearing at random locations. How had Xiao Yunhe delivered this letter to every single disciple?

Xiao Leng answered immediately, “We received this letter two days ago. This Xiao Yunhe is ranked first among the top ten geniuses. His cultivation has reached the tenth-layer Body Tempering Realm. Not only that, his Martial Spirit has the ability to control low-level monsters. Apparently, he distributed the letters to every cultivator on the Island of Versatility by controlling monsters which are known as ‘Flaming Pigeons’.

“The ability to control monsters?” The words immediately cleared Qin Nan’s doubts, who could not help but exclaim, “The world is indeed fascinating, filled with all kinds of surprises. There exists such a variety of Martial Spirits with different capabilities.”

Qin Nan was greatly astounded by this.

Even though the ability to control low-level monsters was not seemingly useful, if Xiao Yunhe had not possessed this ability, even Xiantian Realm experts would not have been able to distribute the letter to all the disciples.

Chu Yun nodded her head, before a serious expression appeared on her face, “Junior Brother Qin Nan, this is good news and bad news at the same time. The good news is that now that Xiao Yunhe has informed all the cultivators to gather, the five map pieces will surely come together and reveal the location of the last twenty Blue Dragon Badges. The bad news is that it seems like Xiao Yunhe is now Ling Zixiao’s subordinate. Not only that, if Ling Zixiao dares to ‘invite’ all the disciples in the Trial of Versatility, it means that he is not worried even if all the disciples gather together.”

The words aptly explained the current situation.

After saying this, Chu Yun turned around with flickering eyes and said, “Junior Brother Qin Nan, it’s your decision. Should we go?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Leng instinctively glanced at Qin Nan as well.

Every disciple would know of the conflict between Qin Nan and Ling Zixiao, not to mention that Ling Zixiao had teamed up with two hundred and twenty new disciples to hunt Qin Nan down previously at the White Jade Dojo.

If Qin Nan were to accept the invitation and go to the center of the island, apart from facing Ling Zixiao, he would also be facing the huge group of cultivators that Ling Zixiao had gathered.

Even Xiantian Realm experts would choose to reject the invitation.

In other words, under the circumstances, it would be like a death sentence if Qin Nan chose to accept the invitation.

“Yeah, why not?” Qin Nan’s expression was calm, as if he did not realize the danger that was awaiting him. He said in a calm tone, “At the start of this Trial of Versatility, I had decided to at least achieve one of the top three spots. It is impossible to get into the top three with merely the three badges I have now. Therefore, the only chance is to compete for the remaining twenty Blue Dragon Badges.”

Chu Yun and Xiao Leng glanced at each other, and could see a helpless look in each other’s eyes.

It seemed like they both had already anticipated that Qin Nan would surely accept the invitation.

Chu Yun inhaled deeply to get rid of her thoughts and said, “If Junior Brother Qin Nan has decided to go, then I’m willing to offer some assistance.”

Xiao Leng nodded his head in agreement. He had long regarded Qin Nan as his leader, hence he was willing to follow him too.

Qin Nan glanced at the two and took a deep breath, before saying in a serious tone, “I appreciate the friendship between us. You have my thanks. However, if things are getting out of hand and your safety is endangered, leave immediately and don’t worry about me. Is that clear?”

Chu Yun and Xiao Leng both nodded their heads.

“Let’s go then.” Qin Nan was straightforward, and without wasting anymore time, started to pack up for the departure.

However, at that moment, Chu Yun could not help but ask, “Junior Brother Qin Nan, why would you still go after knowing that a great number of enemies will be there? Aren’t you scared?”

Qin Nan looked at her calmly and smilingly said, “Why wouldn’t I? So what if it’s a sea of flames or a cliff of great heights? Should I allow Ling Zixiao and the disciples to continue bullying me like that? If I don’t show them my stance, they would probably assume I’m like an ant, ready to be crushed at any time.”

Saying this, Qin Nan’s expression became stone cold, as he emitted an icy murderous intention.

He had always been an unforgiving person.
