Never underestimate those families; their relationships are deeply intertwined, and they are more or less connected to the ancient families in the Capital. When emotions surge, Zhengying Academy will definitely face a catastrophic disaster.
Duan Tianya and the others grew more and more worried, their faces covered in sweat.
"No, we must open the Barrier. Pang Daoist, if there is anything we can do to help, just say the word. Even if it costs me my life, I, Duan Tianya, am willing to sacrifice it," Duan Tianya declared seriously and resolutely.
"And us too," several other instructors stepped forward.
"I’ll try again. In a moment, I will need to set up an Alchemy Array and will need your help," Pang Dezong nodded and said.
It was clear that he wasn’t very confident, merely adopting an attitude of doing what he could and leaving the results to fate.
The hearts of Duan Tianya and the others sank even further. Follow current novels on NovєlFіre.net
At this moment, in the Exotic Beast Valley, Qu Fengting and the others were preparing to rest.
This stretch of the valley was narrow, unable to accommodate hundreds of Swordsmen to establish a camp. Fortunately, the rock walls were not completely vertical, with odd-shaped rocks protruding, providing temporary places to settle.
The Swordsmen grouped in twos and threes to set up their camps and lit campfires. Seen from a distance in the night, the lines of campfires looked spectacular.
Walking far away, Mu Hanyan finally chose a spot far from everyone else’s line of sight to set up her camp.
This Exotic Beast Egg came in a most peculiar way, whether it was the Barrier protecting it or its mysteriously patterned shell, all of which proved its extraordinariness.
It is said that pure-blooded Griffins or Dragon Eagles, which are other talented Exotic Beasts, could set up Barriers around their Beast Eggs after laying them, so to ordinary people, Mu Hanyan’s luck seemed incredibly good.
However, that was the extent of their understanding. As far as Mu Hanyan knew, although Griffins and Dragon Eagles were rare, they were not the pinnacle of Exotic Beasts in the Holy Court Continent, nor were they likely to excite the Star Illusion Thousand Machine that much.
The life incubated within this Beast Egg must be stronger than a Griffin or a Dragon Eagle.
What could it be? Could this be what Qu Fengting and Wu Qiuyun were targeting— an Ancient Divine Beast? Thinking of this, Mu Hanyan felt a bit excited, but she quickly dismissed her speculation.
If it truly was the Ancient Divine Beast they were looking for, Qu Fengting would have fought her desperately by now, not remain indifferent.
"Want to eat a walnut?" While Mu Cheng and Wu Qiuyun were setting up the tent, Mu Hanyan took out some walnuts, cracked one open, threw it into her mouth, and asked Star Illusion Thousand Machine in her mind.
"If you’re offering favors without a cause, you’re either up to no good or a thief, just ask your question," Star Illusion Thousand Machine said grumpily.
"Hehe, you know it already. Do I even need to say it?" Mu Hanyan said a bit embarrassedly.
"Bring the walnuts here," Star Illusion Thousand Machine demanded.
Mu Hanyan promptly handed over the walnuts in her hand, and as they approached the Star Plate, they disappeared without a trace. The Star Plate even displayed a large mouth pattern, chewing merrily.
"Now can you tell?" Mu Hanyan urged.
"Bring a few more," Star Illusion Thousand Machine said, clearly wanting more.
"You glutton," Mu Hanyan pinched a few more walnuts, watching the large mouth chew even more joyfully.
"Want to know, do you? Want to know why don’t you hatch it and find out?" Satisfied with eating, without waiting for Mu Hanyan to ask, Star Illusion Thousand Machine took the initiative but left her hanging.
"Are you teasing me?" Mu Hanyan rolled her eyes. I already know this, do I need you to tell me? It’s strange for a living person to be teased by a broken Star Plate.
