Chapter 540 540 Cooperation
While Li Shi Ying was busy searching for the golden leaf without knowing where it usually grew, other participants one by one arrived at the beach.
It was 7 a.m, and around 3 participants arrived at the beach. Of course they weren’t unharmed like Li Shi Ying, but they were quite capable if they could arrive two hours before the time limit.
"Damn it, my brother isn’t here.." A voice of a haughty young girl could be heard at the beach, talking to herself. The girl wore a badge from Liang Xin Academy, so she must be in the same team as Meng Yue Ming!
historical
"Hey you, from Liang Xin Academy right?" A young man, around 16 years old suddenly struck a conversation at the young girl.
"Yeah, so what? Commoner don’t talk to me. Don’t you know that I’m the only princess of White Tiger Country?" The girl who turned out to be Duan Hui Nan, patted her clothes to clean up the dirt as she answered the young man.
"I’m Gu Zhong from Pegasus country, my academy is Tian Ming Academy. How about we team up?" The young man looked patient, facing the unreasonable princess as he kept a smile on his face. He looked mature for his age.
"Why should I?" Duan Hui Nan frowned as she inspected the man from his head to his toe. This man looked refined, so he must have come from a good family in Pegasus country!
"You see, we don’t even know what we should do after we arrive here but just know, I read a small information board stating that the next test is a treasure hunt. But we don’t even know what treasure we should hunt, meaning we need to find the list first. I need your help."
Gu Zhong smiled as he patiently explained why he needed to team up with someone else. It would be hard to find the list of treasures if he just searched for it alone.
He too didn’t want to team up with a spoiled brat like this princess, but it was better than teaming up with another participant, one that looked smarter and stronger than him. What if he got backstabbed?
"Fine, let’s go now." Duan Hui Nan too knew she couldn’t team up with the third participant arriving with her, so she chose to follow this young man to find the scroll.
Seeing the two already gone, the third participant smirked. He was from Ouyang Academy, the third best academy in this continent. He, Shu Chen, didn’t need a teammate!
But from what he observed...from the footprints on the sand...it seemed that there was one participant already arriving before all of them?
This one participant headed to the forest...just who would be so fast enough to arrive before him? He thought he was fast enough, who knew that this one was even faster than him!
He should just follow this person’s footsteps. He was sure he could benefit a lot from it.
Forest.
"We have been searching for an hour, but we haven’t found the golden leaf yet! Jiu Wei, you really don’t know of such a leaf?" Li Shi Ying sat down as she wiped her sweat, trying to take a short break.
The forest wasn’t that dangerous since she had Jiu Wei and the others with her, so this mission should be easy, but for the f*ck’s sake, she couldn’t found this damn golden leaf!
"Mistress, I don’t know of such a leaf! We need an alchemist in Meng Yue Ming’s class to know of such a leaf." Jiu Wei broke out in a cold sweat when he couldn’t even help his mistress to get the first item needed.
They actually could just skip and search for the second item, but it would require double the effort, since they had to visit a nearby village for the second item. It’s better to get the first item now!
"Ugh what to do...Long Ao Zhen would arrive in an hour so we could wait for him, but..." Li Shi Ying was just about to finish her words when she sensed a person moving behind her, making her stand up and shout.
"Who is there?!" Not only Li Shi Ying, even Jiu Wei was alerted. He quickly went back to Li Shi Ying’s contracted space as Li Shi Ying prepared her talisman.
"Calm down, I don’t mean anything bad." The person appearing behind the trees was none other than the smart guy earlier, Su Chen. His black sharp eyes were looking at Li Shi Ying from her head to her toes with a spark of curiosity inside.
So this weak-looking girl was the first participant arriving here? Unbelievable! This girl even had the list of treasures they had to gather. His decision to follow the footsteps here was indeed right.
"State your business or scram." Li Shi Yin wasn’t used to acting like a domineering female lead, but for the sake of her own good, she tried her best.
"I’m here to offer a cooperation." Shu Chen raised both of his hands casually. He was here indeed to propose cooperation.
Cooperation? ??
"I’m listening." Li Shi Ying secretly sighed in relief when the guy said he just wanted to cooperate with her. She was nervous since this guy looked as strong as Zhan Jiouli! Truly another monster.
