 Chapter 21 Night Talk

  After the other three fell asleep, Li Fei walked over to sit opposite Chi Yao.

  Li Fei thought about his words before speaking: "This matter involves a lot of things. I have been reluctant to talk about it for the sake of protecting you."

  Chi Yao said: "Well, I can understand, but I must know the relevant information. To be honest, I can sense that Wang Tao has a strong killing intention. There will definitely be changes in this competition."

  "Killing intention? This is unreasonable. Could it be..." Li Fei heard Chi Yao's words, his face suddenly changed, and he confirmed with Chi Yao: "Are you sure?"

  "I am sure, now you know why I must understand the situation. Wang Tao, this unstable factor, will actually threaten our lives." Chi Yao affirmed.

  "Okay, okay," Li Fei sighed, and continued: "The grievances between the Li family and the Wang family, tracing back to the source, must start from the founding of the empire"

  "Well, then I hope you can explain it as briefly as possible." Chi Yao couldn't help interrupting.

  Li Fei continued, "Okay, in short. The Yong family is the current royal family. When the empire was founded, the three strongest families were the Yong family, the Li family and the Wang family."

  "The ancestors of the three families had a close relationship and were like brothers. They worked together to create the Yongsen Empire."

  "The Wang family was responsible for economic support before the establishment of the empire, and later it was responsible for most of the economic operations of the empire. It was a business family in the court."

  "The Li family was responsible for commanding the army before the establishment of the empire, and later it held military power. It was a military and political family in the court."

  "The Yong family became the royal family. The ancestor of the Yong family, the first emperor of the empire, Yongjun, was an enlightened emperor. He did not abandon the donkey after it had done its work. He just took back some of the power of the Li and Wang families to ensure the authority of the royal family."

  "In the generation of the ancestors and the previous emperor, they fought side by side and had a basis of mutual trust. The previous emperor Yongjun was confident that he could control the Li and Wang families, but the younger generations of their respective families were not necessarily."

  "In his later years, Yongjun chose to balance the power of the Li and Wang families and tried to make the two families hostile to each other for the sake of future generations."

  "The ancestors of the Li and Wang families naturally understood their situation. Coupled with their trust in Emperor Yongjun, they cooperated with the emperor to start targeting each other on their own and gave up part of their power to the royal family."

  "The struggles between the Li and Wang families all originated from the balance of the Yong family's royal family. But after years of fighting, the Li and Wang families actually had a real hatred for each other, but there should never be any killing intent."

  Chi Yao took over the conversation: "Unless the current Yong family's royal family also intervenes, and even gives instructions to the Wang family."

  Li Fei was silent.

  Chi Yao continued, "It's normal. The current emperor holds power and naturally wants to control more. The Li family and the Wang family, the military, politics and economy, in the eyes of the emperor, your Li family is definitely a greater threat."

  Li Fei seemed to accept Chi Yao's statement and said, "That means the Yong family and the Wang family want to use this prize-seeking competition to get rid of me?"

  "Well, it's very likely. After all, you are the only heir of the Li family now. Even the royal family of the Yong family will not attack you directly in public, but will create an accident through the Wang family and the prize-seeking competition." Chi Yao said, and added in his heart that it is also possible that they want to kill me. Li Fei

  calmed down and eased up, saying, "I didn't expect the current emperor to be so narrow-minded. Let me teach Wang Tao a good lesson."

  After speaking, Li Fei looked at Chi Yao, "It's your turn. What's the matter with the anomaly in the test?"

  "Well, to be honest, my elemental adaptability is relatively comprehensive, and the test array's detection is not accurate enough." Chi Yao explained.

  "Comprehensive? Wait, you mean you have all the elements??? Is that true? Are there really people who have all the elements?" Li Fei couldn't hold back and grabbed Chi Yao's hand with an expression of disbelief.

  "I don't have to lie to you." As he spoke, Chi Yao entered into meditation and began to guide the elements around him, classifying and gathering different elements into clusters.

  Seeing Chi Yao easily condense nine element clusters, Li Fei finally recognized the reality.

  "It's true, there really is a person who has all the elements," Li Fei murmured, and then quickly cheered up and said to Chi Yao seriously: "You have a bright future, and you may even be able to break through to the realm above the great magician. You must never tell anyone about this in the future."   

  "Wait, after the academy takes you away, is it to retest you?"

  Chi Yao replied, "Yes. Several deans are here, they all know."

  Li Fei frowned and said, "That means the top leaders of the empire will also know. With the narrow-mindedness of the current emperor, you are probably an uncertain factor, and you are now in a team with me."

  "Yes, I am afraid I am also a target to be eliminated." Chi Yao said frankly. After Li Fei explained the truth about the feud between the Li family and the Wang family, Chi Yao guessed the real mastermind behind the scenes, and he was probably also a target. No wonder when he saw Wang Tao before, the killing intention was more directed at himself. However, Chi Yao

  was not worried at all. As long as the prize-seeking competition was over, he could return to the paradise. If he had the ability, he would go to the reincarnation paradise to have a try!

  "After you safely pass the prize-seeking competition, the Li family will protect you." Li Fei said seriously.

  "Okay," Chi Yao agreed, knowing that Li Fei really regarded him as a brother and was willing to provide shelter.

  It's just that he has a stronger backstage (referring to the paradise), so there is no need to worry at all.

  After a conversation, the two began to keep watch seriously.

——The

  second day of the prize-seeking competition.

  Chi Yao used meditation to temporarily replace sleep, and was still awake. He had a simple breakfast with everyone, and then continued to move forward according to the arrangement.

  However, on the way, Chi Yao was more careful to pay attention to the changes around him, and from time to time he would use the wind breath technique to explore the surrounding situation.

  In this way, hunting monsters and looking for treasure chests, another day passed quickly.

-

  Follow this rhythm until the fourth day of the prize-seeking competition.

  In the first three days, Chi Yao's team harvested a total of 8 level 1 boxes, 5 level 2 boxes, and 2 level 3 boxes. The

  level 1 and 2 boxes are all magic materials, and the second level 3 box opened a magic weapon, which is an ice-attributed shield, and was given to Zi Hanyan to use.

  A total of 13 level 1 monsters and 2 elite level 1 monsters were hunted.

  This allowed Chi Yao to harvest 13 white treasure chests and 2 green treasure chests, and the explosion rate of the treasure chests was as high as 100%.

  Since he was still in the competition, Chi Yao put away the treasure chest first and did not choose to open it.

  Due to the huge venue, Chi Yao and others only encountered two teams in the past three days. When they met Chi Yao and Li Fei, the fighting spirit of the team was greatly reduced.

  With Chi Yao's reasonable distribution, the two teams were quickly eliminated.

  "A level 1 box is 1 point, a level 2 box is 2 points, and a level 3 box is 4 points. A level 1 monster is 2 points, and an elite monster is 4 points. Our total score is now 60 points, ranking first." Chi Yao said, looking at the ranking displayed on the college terminal in his hand. "

  The second place is Wang Tao's team, with 52 points, and the gap is actually not big."

  "Then let's go find the level 4 box next?" Lin Cai said.

  "Well, yes, after the experience of hunting monsters in the past few days, we have a lot of tacit understanding, and my magic tools are also fully prepared, so we can try." Li Fei said. "Then let's

  go, the goal is the level 4 box!" Chi Yao said.

   Bow, sorry.JPG

    Listen to my quibbling. I was a bit lazy before signing the contract, and I have been consuming my saved manuscripts.
