Mysterious Egg & ......A stupid Lickspittle

< A Grade 3 Spirit Beast killed, 10,000 Exp obtained >

Ash directly slumped to the ground after the last hit. He was exhausted both in mind and body, and he was also bleeding in his legs.

Both Lu Zhang and Airi were better off than Ash because they only expended energies. Their bodies were not much exhausted.

Airi hurriedly took out the first aid box from her bag and started tending to the wounded Ash.

Lu Zhang went alert while Airi was treating Ash.

After cleaning the wound and properly bandaging the wound Airi asked, " How is it? Does it still hurt? "

Ash smiled faintly and said, " Haha This little bit of wound is not enough to make me feel pain, I've suffered worse than this "

Airi blushed slightly seeing Ash's dazzling smile and hearing his words.

Lu Zhang rolled his eyes seeing the scene.

Ash doesn't understand this fellow, Lu Zhang's fighting style is quite aggressive but he stays silent most of the time.

< System Advice Host to Drop the Mysterious Egg into the pond >

' What?! ' Ash was startled hearing what the system said.

' You mean The Mysterious Egg I got in my first Main mission? It's not showing any sign of hatching even tho I injected 100 Spirit Energy into it every day. ' Ace spoke to the system.

< The Mysterious Egg seems to have great origins, At first, I thought it was a normal legendary grade spirit beast's egg but it is not the case since it did not hatch after you injected 100 spirit energy into it everyday >

' Legendary Grade? What Grade is that? '

At this moment Lu Zhang spoke, interrupting Ash, "Are you able to move normally? If not, I can carry you "

Ash smiled awkwardly and said to Lu Zhang, " of course I can walk normally albeit with slower speed as I want to heal my wounds using spirit energy, But first let's stay here for a while, I want to check out that pond "

< The Legendary Spirit Beasts are 1 Grade higher than Grade 10 Spirit Beasts >

' Oh...So what will happen if I drop my mysterious egg into the pond? '

< Don't know but there seem to be mysterious energy in the pond, And I think it might just help you accelerate the hatching process of the Egg >

Hearing this, Ace stood up which he did easily despite being injured, and walked towards to pond.

Afterward, He directly jumped into the pond. Airi and Lu Zhang were startled.

" What are you doing Ash? " Airi said as she ran towards the pond.

Lu Zhang also followed her as both of them peeked into the pond only to see Ash popping his head out.

" Nothing just wanted to check out the pond. " Ash spoke while grinning. He can't just show them as he conjures up an Egg from the air. Even his bag is not capable of holding the egg otherwise he could pretend to take it out from his bag.

So he dived into the pond and summoned the egg from his storage while in the water.

He took a pick in the pond and was badly startled, ' What the hell...My egg disappeared, System what's going on? '

< System senses some Spatial fluctuation just now, Which means that the egg entered some kind of space inside the pond. >

' Can I enter that space? ' Ash asked anxiously.

< Unfortunately you can't enter because that partial fluctuation only appeared after you dropped the egg and disappeared afterward, But Host does not need to worry because The Egg will most likely come to you on its own after it hatches as you have injected your mana into it every day. >

Ash relaxed hearing this and got out of the pond.

" So did you find anything? " Lu Zhang spoke after Ash climbed out of the pond.

" Nah, It was just a normal pond it seems, Let's get going because we have to find a good spot to spend the night. " Ash said after he soaked himself with Fire Energy while Airi used her Wind Energy to produce some winds.

" Thanks. " Ash said thanks to Airi with a smile. But Airi did not blush this time and said with a smile, " Your welcome "

Lu Zhang feels awkward even tho there's nothing strange about their exchanges, So he went to the beast and took out its core and heart, as they can't take with them the other parts of the beast.

The three started their journey to the north once again.

After 30 minutes they once again encountered a beast but it was just a Grade 2 beast that was easily killed by Airi and Lu Zhang.

Because Ash didn't participate in the fight he did not receive any exp.

After traveling for another hour they heard some sounds ahead of them which were most likely other participates and increased their speed.

Soon they arrived at the place and were surprised to find two teams confronting each other.

" Humph, We found this Moonflower first so it's ours. " spoke a boy with a loud voice who seems to be the leader of his team.

In front of him were a girl and her two teammates, Her two teammates were boys and they seem to treat the girl as the leader of their group.

" You....." The girl got angry at the boy and said, " It was us who discovered the Moonflower first but a Grade 2 spirit beast was guarding it so we had to kill it that's why you arrived here first. "

Ash, Lu Zhang, and Airi also revealed themselves at this time which alerted the other two teams.

" We were just passing by here and heard a commotion here, So what's going on? " Ash spoke as he eyed the Moonflower because even now both were just arguing and haven't yet picked it up.

" If you are just passing by then continue, Don't poke your nose into other people's business " The boy who first spoke said to Ash.

" Why so serious? Let's first introduce ourselves, My name is Ash. What about you two? " Ash said with a faint smile. He knows that instead of taking on a grim face all the time, It's better to smile while talking to strangers.

" humph. " The boy just snorted while The girl said, " Hello, My name is Alexa. "

' is that boy idiot? doesn't he think that I will side with the girl if he keeps this attitude? ' Ash thought.

" If you are done, Then wipe your filthy smile and get going, stop poking into other people's business, otherwise..." The boy sinisterly smiled as he looked at Ace.

Ash frowned and spoke, " Can't you speak nicely? why is only sh-t coming out from your mouth?, You're polluting this clean environment. "

Hearing this, everyone started to laugh while the boy's face turned beet red, either from embarrassment or anger.

" You...Fine, I didn't want to take advantage of my friend's identity but you forced me. " The boy took a breath before shouting, " LISTEN CAREFULLY, Joe handou is my cousin, If you don't fuvk out from here then, I don't need to tell you what will happen once you're outside. " He then turned to the girl and said, " You too. roll away from here. "

Hearing this, Ash and others started laughing but Alexa and her teammates were startled and seem to be scared.

Ash said while laughing, " Who is this Joe Handou? "

The boy regained his composer and said with disdain, " The likes of you don't deserve to know his greatness, Anyway, In this Competition, The only ones I have to be careful are The Big Five's Special Class students, The other 10 High-Class Academies are not worth in my eyes.

Alexa said with a grim face, " Let's go, We don't need this Moonflower " saying this, She directly left with her teammates.

Ash, Airi, and Lu Zhang were startled.

But Ash was not worried and once again said while smiling, " Lickspittle, You are really good, I bet your master Joe whatever would be happy seeing you using his name to scare others. "

Lu Zhang with a rare smile, " That Joe handou is the son of the senator Ricky handou, He struts around and makes trouble for other people because his father Ricky handou just recently reached Spirit Grand Master Stage. "

Airi spoke at this time but her tone changed into a cold one, " If you don't roll out from here in 5 seconds then you will not be able to proceed further in this competition. "

The boy was startled after hearing her and was ready to lash out again before one of his teammates whispered something in his ears.

The boy, after hearing something from his teammate turned his shocked face to Ash and said, " You...are you from The Big Five? "

Just as Ash nodded, The boy and his teammates ran away and were out of sight in a few seconds.

Ash was dumbfounded seeing this and spoke, " What! Are the big five really that scary? "

Airi spoke with a giggle, " The Big Five are scary but their's Special Students are scarier, Everyone knows that The Big Five's Special Students are a notch above other academy's special class students both in cultivation and Skills. "

Lu Zhang went towards the Moonflower and plucked it before putting it in the bag.
