Dusk fell, and a gentle rouge-colored glow covered the endless sea, as well as the small island that had been shrouded in fighting and roaring for many days.

There was a row of tents set up on the beach, and even more tables filled with food, so much so that it couldn't fit anywhere else and was piled up on the ground.

Jiang Liujing waved goodbye to a phantom beast. The phantom beast's huge body paused with every step, its two wings drooping at its sides. It looked back from time to time, as if it was very reluctant to leave.

People outside were heartbroken.

[Where's your dignity? Where's your pride? Where's your integrity as a mythical beast?]

[A bite of food just came to your door? Do you need this bite of food?]

Jiang Liujing picked up the thing that the phantom beast brought him, a purely transparent crystal ball with a special golden symbol marked on the bottom.

After staring at it for a few seconds, he threw it to Mo Ya: "Are there any duplicates of this type?"

Mo Ya took it, shook his head, and said happily: "No."

"Sure enough, they are classified according to the attributes and characteristics of the mythical beasts." Lesden was still struggling.

"It doesn't matter how it's classified, this is what's important." Mo Ya walked to the other side of the beach with the crystal ball and lifted the curtain of one of the tents. In an instant, a dazzling light leaked out, almost blinding everyone's eyes.

Mo Ya laughed, "Hehehehe," and carefully placed the crystal ball in a corner. He turned around and said proudly, "The important thing is, we're going to win soon."

He doesn't think any other team can surpass their "results".

Anderwei looked at Jiang Liujing and said, "Using points to buy things and trade with fantasy beasts, only you can think of it."

They originally wanted to search for the lair of the fantasy beasts one by one, but Jiang Liujing put forward other suggestions.

He felt that barging into their lair to ask for their help was too rude, and not very efficient. Rather than asking them to find it, it would be better to let the phantom beasts come to them.

Since points can be exchanged for almost everything available on the market, there will always be fantasy beasts that need them.

Fair trade and mutual benefit.

When Anderwei heard this, he was amazed and at the same time, he became genuinely curious about Jiang Liujing's upbringing. What kind of environment did this person grow up in to develop his current personality?

"In fact, even if others think of it, they can't realize it." Liu An stretched lazily and looked up at the orange-red sky.

"Of all the mythical beasts you've seen, which one seems to have a good temper? If Xiao Shui'er wasn't here, they would definitely choose to fight and take the things away."

The rabbit suddenly looked up, glanced at him, and gave him a quick kick.

Liu An was caught off guard and kicked so hard he flew away. He got up from the ground with a confused and aggrieved look on his face: "Why did you hit me?"

"I told you not to fire indiscriminately when you say bad things about others, but there is a phantom beast here." Mo Ya laughed.

The rabbit nodded, indicating that it was exactly as Mo Ya said.

Liu An muttered, "It really does have a bad temper. What was I saying wrong..."

He fell silent again at the rabbit's death gaze.

Liu An raised his hands in surrender, then quietly turned off his microphone and sat down in the corner.

The mountain king is not to be messed with.

Jiang Liujing sat down on the edge of the bed, watching them playing and fighting, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.

Perhaps because of the life-saving grace, everyone present now looks at the rabbit differently.

If he was a kind landlord who took them in before, now he can probably be considered a friend.

Before the competition, no one had thought that they would become friends with a phantom beast that was not in a contracted state.

In fact, if humans and mythical beasts want to get along well, it is not as difficult as they imagine.

"After the game is over, we will have to say goodbye to it." Chu Zhou suddenly said.

This one sentence made the whole audience quiet for a moment.

"Sorry, I think I said something wrong." Chu Zhou reacted slowly and apologized.

Lessden shook his head: "No, you are telling the truth."

He glanced at the time and said, "Today is already the third day. Once tonight is over, the competition will be over and we will be taken away from the island."

Rabbits are native to the island, so naturally they are here to stay.

The smile on Mo Ya's face gradually faded. He lowered his head and suddenly said, "It's not just this. The game is over, and we have to separate now."

"Xiao Jing, are you and Chi planning to graduate as soon as you return?"

Jiang Liujing didn't expect that Mo Ya, who was usually a carefree person, would have such a sharp sense of smell at this moment.

He had never mentioned the fact that he was about to graduate in front of his roommates, but Mo Ya discovered it himself.

He and Chi looked at each other, and finally decided not to continue hiding it, and nodded.

"Yes, with the credits we earned from participating in the competition, we were able to graduate early."

Wen Xun rarely spoke up and asked, "Where are you going after graduation? Stay in Chenxi? Or go back home? Ernst has already reached a truce, right?"

Jiang Liujing said: "It's just a temporary ceasefire. It may start again at any time. The crisis has not been resolved... Besides, I want to see my family."

At least he and Sang Mo had met twice recently.

But I haven’t seen Xing Yue for seven years.

Jiang Liujing missed him very much.

He was eager to return home.

It's like a little eagle whose feathers have just grown a little fuller. After flying around outside, it can't wait to show its growth to its grandfather.

"Go home, I want to go home too. My parents should still be waiting for me at home." Mo Ya looked at his hands.

He didn't have a complicated background. His parents were just normal people and couldn't give him wealth to squander, but Mo Ya knew that they loved him very much.

On the contrary, his roommates, all of whom were glamorous and extraordinary, when asked about their background, either they had never seen their parents, or their parents were worse than dead.

He and Chu Zhou both seemed particularly happy being sandwiched in the middle.

Wen Xun said nonchalantly, "Don't you want to be a noble? Ask the king to give you the title when you return. If we win the competition, the principal will at least give us each the title of outstanding graduate, right? We've all worked so hard, if the principal has even a modicum of common sense, he definitely wouldn't turn a blind eye."

He smiled at the flying ball of fur in the air, as if he had no intention at all.

"..."

Mo Ya said, "Be careful, your dean will talk to you when you get back."

Wen Xun laughed, and out of his 150 pounds, 140 pounds was filled with rebelliousness: "Why would I be afraid of him?"

Jiang Liujing looked at Liu An: "What about you? I don't think I've ever heard you mention your background."

They met Liu An on the spaceship heading to the Dawn Empire. They had known each other longer than Mo Ya and the others and spent a lot of time together, but they had never heard Liu An mention his family. They didn't even seem to know what country Liu An was from.

"I'm pretty much the same as you. I don't have parents either. I used to live in a small village, but it was destroyed a long time ago. I was rescued by my master, but he died a few years later."

Liu An smiled faintly and did not shy away from mentioning it.

"I don't have a fixed home. I've been everywhere. School is the place where I spend the most time."

The atmosphere suddenly became more depressing.

The only sound in the air was the rolling waves.

Mo Ya said carefully: "How about we... not talk about this anymore?"

Every question you ask about this group of people is a landmine.

Mo Ya was terrified when he heard them talking, fearing that they would explode at any minute.

Liu An shook his head, but his expression was not sad.

"I should have said it a long time ago. Otherwise, after we break up, Xiao Shui'er might forget about me one day."

Jiang Liujing felt that this was malicious slander: "How can my memory be so bad?"

Liu An glanced at him and said with a hint of sarcasm:

"When you're with Chi, do you still have time to think about us?"

During these few days on the island, they would often hide in a corner together for no apparent reason, and sometimes they couldn't hear other people talking to them.

This was when they were present. Once they had separated and disappeared, and someone was still hanging around in front of Jiang Liujing, would Jiang Liujing still remember them?

Liu An didn't believe it.

Not only Liu An, but everyone else also nodded in conviction, each with an extremely solemn expression.

Mo Ya said: "This is a big problem."

Wen Xun: "In five years at most, he won't be able to tell who is who between you and Liu An."

Lessden: "I believe in Senior Jiang's intelligence. It will take at least ten years."

Jiang Liujing: "...I've already told you I won't forget."

He was almost helpless because of these guys.

"Words are not enough, let's make a deal, Xiaojing." Mo Ya grinned at him.

"No matter what, please remember us."

"You're so overbearing. It's not necessary at all times. We should still give them two some private space."

Liu An said, "There are twenty-four hours in a day, and you only need to remember twenty-three hours."

red:"?"

He thought they were crazy too.

"That's it, it's a deal, no regrets."

Mo Ya stretched out a hand and placed it in the air, a warm smile in his eyes, "Mo Ya is Jiang Liujing's best friend."

Liu An's hand chased after him: "Nonsense, Liu An is Jiang Liujing's best friend."

Wen Xun put one hand in his pocket and said, "You are so childish. How old are you and still playing this kind of trick?"

Chu Zhou patted him: "Don't spoil the fun."

They both put their hands on it.

Andway: "Is this some special ceremony? Take me with you too."

also joined in.

……

One, another, and another hand.

The young people's hands piled up into tall towers in the sea breeze.

The firelight was dim, lighting up the beach and the stars hidden in the dusk.

They turned around and looked at the last two people left.

The dark color in Jiang Liujing's eyes turned into mist, his long hair hung down on the side of his face, and his expression could not be seen clearly in the dim sky.

Chi stretched out his arm, gently put his arm around his shoulders, and pushed him forward, just like the first day of school when he pushed him to go to school alone.

Every growth is a farewell.

"Miaomiao."

"happy graduation."
