Hearing the sound of the door closing behind them, everyone paused.
"Let's go. We only have one hour. Vice Dean said before that it also depends on luck and strength. Getting the items won't be too simple. Don't waste any more time."
Xiao Jietian's voice echoed in everyone's ears. Besides Xun'er, everyone's hearts tightened. This was a rare opportunity; they didn't know when they would get to come in again.
What lay before them was an extremely spacious hall. Around the walls were a dozen or so energy shields, emitting light that illuminated the entire hall as if it were daytime.
"Xun'er, my grandfather said that the Inner Academy relies on fists to obtain resources. Let's stick together, that way it won't be so easy to be bullied."
Hu Jia stealthily came to Xun'er's side, whispering with a smile, a hint of expectation in her eyes.
"Thank you for your kindness, Hu Jia. I believe Tian Ge will protect me."
Xun'er held Xiao Jietian's hand, a slight smile on her lips, her small face radiant with confidence.
"In this world, if anyone dares to bully you, I will make him regret coming into this world."
Xiao Jietian tightened his grip on Xun'er's hand, his eyes filled with undeniable resolve. If a man couldn't protect his woman, he might as well cut off his own manhood.
"Damn it, this is too much. I can't take it."
Hu Jia watched their interaction, feeling her heart die, and pouted.
"The Inner Academy has many talented prodigies. You'd better make good on your word, or I'll snatch Xun'er away, hmph."
"You'll know in the future."
With Xiao Jietian's current strength, he was already on par with elders. If he were a little more ruthless, he could even blow up Jia Nan Academy. He had even dealt with Dou Zuns.
"It's empty here, there's nothing at all. Did we go to the wrong place?"
Xiao Jietian's wide eyes looked suspiciously at the empty room.
"They'll appear in a moment."
Xiao Jietian glanced at one of the energy shields. After Xiao Jietian finished speaking, that shield began to emit a faint whooshing sound.
The sound, however, was quite loud in the quiet environment.
A green light shot out from inside the energy shield, heading straight for the five people.
"Watch out."
Xiao Yan shouted, pulling Xiao Yu beside him to dodge.
Xiao Jietian directly reached out and caught the incoming green light cluster in his hand.
The green light cluster gradually dissipated in Xiao Jietian's hand, revealing the object inside. Xiao Jietian softly read the words on the scroll.
"Mysterious High-Rank Combat Skill: Wind Shadow Trace-less."
"Dou Technique?"
Xiao Yan examined the item in Xiao Jietian's hand, a hint of understanding appearing in his eyes. The others also reacted, realizing that this was how the items appeared.
After they understood the rules, each light shield continuously began to emit a large number of whooshing sounds. Light clusters of various colors constantly shot out from inside the energy shields.
"The items are all inside those light clusters. The light clusters also have resistance, so whether you can get them depends on your ability to suppress them."
Xiao Jietian directly released the scroll in his hand, and it transformed back into a green light cluster, mixing into the large number of light clusters and disappearing.
"Well then, let the snatching begin."
Xiao Yan licked his dry lips, his eyes shining as he watched the light clusters constantly flying past him.
Hu Jia and Xiao Yu were the same, and the three began to constantly chase after the light clusters.
"Tian Ge, what do you want? Xun'er will help you find it."
Xun'er stood quietly beside Xiao Jietian, constantly examining the light clusters flying quickly through the air.
Xiao Jietian thought carefully for a moment, then shook his head.
As for Xun'er, she originally needed a fire-attribute cultivation method for transition, but Xiao Jietian had already given Xun'er a Heaven-rank High-level fire-attribute cultivation method.
"Then help me find one of these medicinal ingredients."
Xiao Jietian knew that the rich woman Xun lacked nothing, so he didn't stand on ceremony and directly transmitted the medicinal ingredients needed for the Marrow Cleansing Pill into Xun'er's mind.
"Okay, I'll go look."
Xun'er directly left Xiao Jietian's side, her figure constantly moving between the various light clusters.
Time slowly passed as everyone searched for items.
Xiao Jietian stood on the west side of the hall, holding a blue light cluster and a milky-white light cluster in his hands.
The two light clusters struggled continuously, but as Xiao Jietian's aura spread out, the two light clusters immediately lay obediently in Xiao Jietian's hand.
Xiao Jietian glanced at the others, who were still busy, and activated the system: "System check-in."
