The Wang Tong trio's faces were deathly pale as they stared at Mu, who had a calm expression on his face as he stared at them. However, they felt their scalps turn slightly numb. The scene of their previous defeat had caused them to be a little absent-minded. Even with the three of them joining hands, they were still defeated by this youth whose strength was merely at the quasi-Heavenly Transform stage.
"How can he be so strong?"
The mouths of the Wang Tong trio were filled with bitterness. They had bitterly trained for a year, and originally believed that they would definitely be able to shine brightly in this Hunting War after coming out from their seclusion. However, who would have expected that they would encounter such a vicious character not long after it had started.
It was said that this fellow was a new student that had arrived at Hokuang Reiwon for nearly half a year. With such ability, even many outstanding older students were left far behind him.
This fellow definitely had the strength to stabilize the top five of the Heavenly Rankings!
What a monster.
Wang Tong and the other two were slightly dispirited. The arrogance within their hearts had finally been smashed into smithereens. They had once prided themselves as geniuses. However, compared to people like Li Xuantong and Mu Chen, they were left far, far behind.
"What do you want?" Wang Tong was after all the boss. Immediately, he raised his spirits, clenched his teeth, and asked Mu Chen.
"Although it's impossible for me to take your little lives here, if I beat you half to death, you should be automatically transported out of the Spiritual Light World. In that case, you will also lose the qualifications for the Spiritual Light Empowerment."
Mu Chen sat down on a giant rock in front of the trio, and smiled. However, his voice did not contain much warmth.
The faces of Wang Tong and the other two turned pale. The reason why they had chosen to erupt forth during the Hunting War was for the sake of the Spiritual Light Empowerment. That's because it would allow their strength to advance once again, allowing them to truly catch up to those influential figures. If Mu Chen were to truly force them out of the Spiritual Light World, they would lose this opportunity. To them, it would undoubtedly be a gigantic blow.
"Therefore, take out a compensation that can move my heart. Otherwise …" Mu Chen faintly smiled, as his eyes evilly roamed around the trio.
"We have a thousand Spiritual Lights that we snatched from those fellows. We'll give them to you, how about it?" said Wang Tong as he clenched his teeth.
Not far away, the three groups of people that had gathered over were instantly enraged. However, they did not dare to say anything. Regardless of whether it was Mu Chen or the three brothers of the Wang Family, they were not people that they could deal with.
Mu Chen's expression didn't change much. He just stretched out his palm.
A radiance flashed within Wang Tong's hand, and a crystal ball the size of a human head appeared in a flash. The originally sparkling and translucent crystal ball was currently emitting a fiery-red radiance, akin to a blazing sun that was burning with flames. Thousands of Spiritual Lights filled the interior of the crystal ball, while an extremely dense Spiritual Energy fluctuation was emitted, causing the air to emit buzzing and vibrating sounds.
The people from the three teams stared at the crystal ball. That was theirs.
However, Mu Chen did not care about them. He did not have any good feelings towards the three Wang brothers, nor did he have any good feelings towards these petty fellows. Therefore, he directly received it, and with a flip of his palm, he kept it, without the slightest thought of returning it to Chen Peng and the rest.
Upon seeing this, Chen Peng and the rest could only twitch their lips. However, they did not dare to criticize him, as those were Mu Chen's spoils of war.
"These things are still not enough." After keeping the thousands of Spiritual Lights, Mu Chen looked towards Wang Tong and indifferently said.
"I've already given you the Spiritual Lights, yet you're still not satisfied. Mu Chen, don't go overboard!" The expressions of the three Wang brothers instantly changed as they furiously shouted.
Mu Chen slowly walked forward. With a clench of his hand, the crescent moon blade that was stuck in front of the Wang Tong trio hummed as it shot into Mu Chen's hand. With a casual flick of his hand, the swift and fierce blade glint tore a deep scar in the ground in front of the trio. As he stared at the Wang Tong trio, his gaze turned slightly cold.
When the Wang Tong trio saw Mu Chen's ice-cold gaze, their hearts turned slightly cold. Looking at each other, they finally let out a dispirited sigh. This time, they were really unlucky. Looks like if they did not bleed a little today, this fiend would not let the matter rest.
"We have a piece of information regarding the gathering point.
"I don't have much interest in ordinary gathering points." Mu Chen's eyebrows faintly twitched as he said.
"Humph, the gathering point that we know of is classified as an extremely dangerous level." Wang Tong furiously said.
"An extremely dangerous level gathering point?"
To one side, An Ran and the other two quietly cried out in alarm. Their pretty faces somewhat changed as they stared at Wang Tong and said: "You guys actually know of this level of gathering point?"
Mu Chen was also a little astonished as he looked at the Wang Tong trio. The current him had some understanding of this Hunting War. For example, the gathering points were divided into strong and weak. The gathering point that they had found was only an ordinary gathering point. Above these ordinary gathering points, there was still the dangerous level and the extremely dangerous level.
Generally speaking, the dangerous level gathering point would have the existence of a Heavenly Transformation Late Stage Spirit General. Moreover, it was not a small one. As for the so-called extremely dangerous level, it was very likely that a Spirit King would appear.
A Spirit King possessed a terrifying strength that was comparable to a Heavenly Completion stage. In the past few years of the Hunting War, there had never been a student that had hunted a Spirit King.
"This information is indeed valuable. However, I'm afraid that I won't be able to swallow it."
Mu Chen's eyebrows faintly wrinkled. If he was able to obtain the Spiritual Light of a Spirit King, then this Hunting War could definitely be said to be perfect. At that time, when he used the Spiritual Light Empowerment, the effect would definitely be described as perfect. However, he was after all not a person that would let some benefits get to his head. Although the Spiritual Light of a Spirit King was extremely alluring, one had to have the ability to enjoy it. Although Mu Chen's current strength could be considered to have greatly improved, he still clearly knew that if he were to really face a Heavenly Completion stage expert!
It would still be very dangerous for him to fight against a strong man of the Reaching Heaven State.
"Your courage is too small. Without this little bit of courage, you still want to shine in this Hunting War?" Wang Lei sneered as he said.
Mu Chen glanced at him and expressionlessly tilted his crescent blade. The sharp tip of the blade pointed straight at Wang Lei. When the latter saw this, he immediately resentfully shut his mouth.
"Tell me about this Extremely Dangerous grade gathering point. With your abilities, you don't have the qualifications to barge into this kind of place. There should be some things inside that you haven't told me, right?" Mu Chen looked at Wang Tong and said.
When Wang Tong heard this, his mouth instantly twitched. He never expected that Mu Chen's eyes would be so sharp. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "In this Spiritual Light World, the number of Extremely Dangerous grade gathering points will not exceed the number of fingers on two hands.
This is because in these past few years, there has never been a student that dared to approach that kind of place. "
Mu Chen nodded his head. Even influential figures like Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong would be relatively cautious and even fearful of a Spirit King with the strength of a Heavenly Completion stage, let alone an ordinary student.
It was precisely because no one dared to make a move against those Spirit Kings in these past few years that these Spirit Kings became stronger and stronger as time passed. Now, even the strength of the students had increased.
However, there was still no one who dared to make a move against those Spirit Kings.
"The gathering point that we are talking about is not among these. This is because it was only evaluated as an Extremely Dangerous grade within this year."
Wang Tong licked his lips. His eyes were a little fiery as he said, "The Spirit King in that gathering point was only recently born!"
"A newly born Spirit King?"
Shock instantly flashed across the faces of An Ran and the rest. This news was truly a heavyweight. Although the current Hokuang Reiwon students were unable to deal with those Spirit Kings that had been formed for many years, if it was a newly born Spirit King, there was a chance of success.
If this news were to spread, it was unknown how many people would rush towards that gathering point in a hot-headed manner. A Spirit King grade Spirit Light was enough to make them take the risk.
Mu Chen's eyes faintly narrowed. A newly born Spirit King?
No wonder Wang Tong and the rest dared to take the risk and make a move against a gathering point of this level. Although Mu Chen understood that with the strength of the three of them, even if the Spirit King was newly born, they would not be able to succeed, there was still a tiny bit of hope.
For the sake of a Spirit King grade Spirit Light, this kind of risk was worth it for the Wang Tong trio to take.
"How many people know about this news?" Mu Chen muttered to himself for a while before asking.
Wang Tong frowned, shook his head and said, "How would I know? This information was placed in the Spiritual Values Hall by Hokuang Reiwon. Although the number of people who would buy it is extremely few, there will always be people who have the intention to buy it."
"That means that this news isn't only known by you guys, right?"
Wang Tong nodded his head and said, "In this Spiritual Light World, you can forget about getting any exclusive information. Hokuang Reiwon wants everyone to compete against each other. It won't be so easy for you to take advantage of others."
With a smile, Mu Chen extended his hand and said, "Give me the location."
Wang Tong clenched his teeth. With an incomparable heartache, he retrieved a red scroll and handed it over to Mu Chen. Mu Chen received it and opened it. Then, he saw a rather complicated route map. In the north-west direction, there was a region that was marked with a blood-red colour. Beside that region, the four scarlet words' Extremely Dangerous' flickered with a chilling glint.
This kind of thing was obviously impossible for the Wang Tong trio to forge. Furthermore, the information that Hokuang Reiwon had sent out should not be wrong. Therefore, Mu Chen did not suspect anything, and directly kept it in his Mustard Seed Bracelet.
"Many thanks."
Mu Chen smiled as he waved his hand. Once again, he inserted the crescent moon blade in his hand in front of the Wang Tong trio. After collecting his benefits, he planned to turn around and leave.
"Wait!" Seeing that Mu Chen was about to leave, Wang Tong hurriedly called out.
Mu Chen slightly tilted his head to look at him and said, "Why?
Do you still have any objections? "
Upon seeing the expression in Mu Chen's eyes, Wang Tong hurriedly shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "I only want to discuss something with you. Since we are heading to that gathering point, why don't we cooperate?
This information isn't exclusive, so there will definitely be other powerful teams eyeing it. I feel that if we work together, we might have a higher chance of success. "
"Don't be too doubtful of us. After all, we are only students from Hokuang Reiwon. We can play with small schemes, but we still know some bottom lines that cannot be crossed."
"Let's cooperate. When the time comes, if we succeed, we can discuss how to split the spoils. How about it?"
Mu Chen looked at Wang Tong, who was seriously staring at him. Behind him, the Wang Lei duo pursed their lips. However, they did not say anything. Evidently, Wang Tong was the leader.
He slightly muttered to himself. After a long while, he nodded his head. The strength of the Wang Tong trio was not bad. If they did not secretly cause trouble, they would indeed be pretty good assistants.
"If you guys want to come together, I will not reject you. However, I will be the leader for the upcoming operation. If you guys are not willing, you can leave on your own. Additionally, remember your words. Do not do anything that exceeds my bottom line. If not, when the time comes, I might not be able to squeeze you guys for something as simple as a little bit of information."
Mu Chen took a deep look at Wang Tong, before waving his hand towards Luo Li, An Ran and the rest, before turning around and leaving.
The Wang Tong trio looked at each other, before letting out a bitter laugh. Then, they quickly followed.
