The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

After Mo Ya was kicked out.

In less than ten minutes, Andway also came out and sat down in the circle of people with a depressed look on his face.

The originally heated conversation paused for a moment because of his arrival. Jiang Liujing, who was surrounded as soon as he returned, looked at him puzzledly and asked: "Aren't you cooking? Is it ready?"

No one was surprised that Mo Ya was kicked out, but Andway could still help out, and Chi did not drive him away at that time.

Andway said with a depressed look on his face: "I really can't stay here any longer."

He was generous by nature and liked to talk. When he met Chi, an iceberg who only said "hmm" for a long time, he felt as helpless as a decent woman encountering a thief.

Not wanting to talk about the sad experience, he asked in confusion, "What were you talking about just now?"

When he walked over just now, he seemed to have heard a faint sentence: "Well, we killed him."

Understatement, callousness.

The tone sounded like he just killed a chicken on the roadside.

Andway looked at the boy who spoke.

With the experience of working together in the Hidden Dragon Mountains, Andway no longer dared to judge Jiang Liujing easily with his previous thinking.

Beneath the angelic beauty and elegance of this young man is a heart that is sometimes gentle and sometimes cold. So far, no one who angers him seems to have suffered any harm.

"Killed a few people with bad intentions." Jiang Liujing said simply.

Lessden added a little more detail for him: "They were the ones who killed the second academy team that just disappeared."

"Why? Did they attack you?"

Andway felt that Jiang Liujing was not the type to actively attack others.

It’s not that he is so kind, but he is very “lazy” and it is troublesome for him to actively hurt others.

Jiang Liujing is already busy enough and doesn't want to cause himself any unnecessary trouble.

Chu Zhou nodded: "It looks like they are deliberately ambushing us. We were very careful on the way back, so no one should have noticed this place."

Once the camp is exposed, there will be endless troubles.

Having been ambushed before, they kept an eye on their surroundings throughout the journey.

Wen Xun picked up a stone, carved a few little men on the ground, and carved a big cross on the men's faces. He used great force to cut the men in half from head to toe.

He dropped the stone in his hand, his expression indifferent: "They think we're weak in the early stages and it's easier to attack us. After all, it's twelve people against four. There are always fools who think that having more people means I have the advantage."

"Actually, it's because their numbers are not large enough and we are too careless." Lesden shook his head, a sharp cold light flashing in his eyes.

"If I were them, I wouldn't dare to attack every school without hesitation. I would at least be fully prepared to overwhelm them in one go. Otherwise, I'd end up like they did today, and only I'd be the one to die. The next academy that comes will probably learn from their mistakes, and it will be even more difficult for us to deal with them."

He looked at Jiang Liujing: "Does this team have many points?"

After a team is destroyed, the opponent's points will automatically be halved and transferred to the other party's points jade card. This is also a rule set to prevent someone from refusing to hand over.

Lesden guessed that this team was so bold because they had some confidence.

Jiang Liujing showed a look of regret and raised his index finger.

"100 points?"

Jiang Liujing shook his head: "1 point."

"..." Everyone was silent.

"So poor." Mo Ya never thought that he, who had always been poor, would one day express such emotion to others.

The more wool you can pull from them, the less you can get from just a rabbit in the field.

"This is a person who is in serious difficulty with points. Aren't they ambushing you just to rob you of your points?" Liu An had to think about other possibilities.

"They only have one team coming. Maybe it's not that they don't want to cooperate with others, but they can't find anyone, and they also want to take all the points for themselves."

"Then they are not as weak as you think. The archer who attacked Xiao Jing is at level three. He must have used all the points he got to upgrade himself," Chu Zhou coughed and lightly praised the team.

Being able to reach the third level means that the team has obtained at least one thousand points in one day and can also get a mid-to-high ranking on the leaderboard.

Jiang Liujing also spoke up: "Many teams with low points rankings follow this model. The current standings ranking and points count don't mean anything."

Lesden nodded, acknowledging their words.

"Indeed. Most teams are still focused on leveling up, not accumulating points. Furthermore, our current method of finding treasure chests to earn points is only useful for the first two or three days at most. From then on, defeating higher-level mythical beasts will definitely earn more points."

He paused here, looked at Jiang Liujing, and said hesitantly, "So when do we start...?"

Hunting mythical beasts.

This is a little hard to say.

Lessden knew that Jiang Liujing had a very close relationship with many mythical beasts.

In fact, they were rarely attacked by phantom beasts throughout the day.

During the day, Lessden had secretly observed other teams, and they didn't seem to be like that at all. Many teams had directly engaged in head-on battles with the phantom beasts, being chased all the way to the ends of the earth.

Compared to those students, their first day was completely peaceful and comfortable. They could earn a lot of points just by looking for boxes.

But if they want to advance in the future, it is still necessary to obtain points from the phantom beasts.

Especially for high-level fantasy beasts, Lesden had a hunch that the points exchanged for capturing high-level fantasy beasts would be far more than what the treasure chest could match.

If you don't take action, you will fall behind.

Lesden's eyes fell on Jiang Liujing, staring at him closely, waiting for a decision.

Jiang Liujing was silent for a long time.

When he didn't speak, everyone also kept their mouths shut tacitly, without making any sound, just looking at him quietly.

Kill, or not kill.

"Regarding this, I don't intend to actively hunt mythical beasts."

Jiang Liujing spoke slowly, and was already prepared for everyone's opposition when he spoke.

However, everyone's reaction was much calmer than he had imagined. Even Lesden, who had asked the question, did not immediately express his opinion. He just looked him in the eye and asked, "Can I ask the reason?"

"It's just my willfulness," Jiang Liujing said, "You don't have to listen to me. I'm just saying I'll do it myself."

Jiang Liujing knew that most humans and phantom beasts didn't like each other, and he didn't force others to be like him. After all, not everyone had the experience of growing up with phantom beasts as playmates.

But it is certain that the decision he made went against the interests of the team.

For this reason, Jiang Liujing thought it was normal even if he was scolded by others.

The crowd was silent for a moment, and then Mo Ya was the first to stand up.

He stood out from the crowd, with a gloomy expression.

When he walked to Jiang Liujing, Jiang Liujing was surprised for a second. He didn't expect that he would be the first one.

Under the shadow, the black-haired boy pursed his lips, frowned and remained silent.

Mo Ya reached out and grabbed his shoulders, shaking him back and forth vigorously twice, catching Jiang Liujing off guard and making him feel a little dizzy.

"Xiao Jing, what do you take us for?" Mo Ya said angrily.

"We are your teammates and even more so your friends. We will listen to what you say. Don't exclude us without permission!"

"But the decision I made may not be correct..." Jiang Liujing hesitated, "You can make your own judgment."

"No one can always make the right decision. Not even gods can always be right." Chu Zhou smiled gently. "We all have our own ideas and judgments, but this isn't a competition for us alone. We prefer to follow the will of the core."

"If you don't want to kill, then don't kill." Wen Xun said directly, "It's not like there are no other ways to gain points."

Andway looked unsurprised. "When I saw your attitude towards that Snowbeast, I knew what you would choose. You're the captain, and I'll listen to you."

Jiang Liujing was silent, seeming a little overwhelmed by their reaction.

After a long time, he corrected Wen Xun's words.

"It's not that we won't kill them, we just won't attack them. If they attack us in return, we will kill them."

"It doesn't make much of a difference." Wen Xun crossed his arms lazily, "Anyway, we'll fight wherever the captain points. If anything goes wrong, the captain will take the blame."

"..." Chu Zhou hit him on the back of the head without saying a word, "Shut up."

He turned to Jiang Liujing and said, "Ignore him. No matter what the final result is, this decision was made by us together."
