Demon beast egg

A thousand years ago, Baili Hongzhuang was already aware of the various major academies. Although the academies were not as influential as the cultivation clans, they could indeed promote the cultivation of practitioners.

After all, only after witnessing more geniuses would one understand their own shortcomings, thereby igniting their fighting spirit. Otherwise, they would remain stagnant, and their cultivation would only come to a halt.

"Master, Canglan Academy is a good place to go." Xiao Hei smiled and said.

Baili Hongzhuang had already planned to go out for training. Comfortable cultivation was not conducive to development.

What she needed was more opponents, breaking through her own limits time and time again!

By joining Canglan Academy, Baili Hongzhuang could encounter a large number of outstanding cultivators, and there would be no shortage of cultivation and training opportunities in the academy. It seemed more convenient than practicing alone.

Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "Canglan Academy is indeed good, but that's still not the reason I want to go."

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds.

Baili Hongzhuang was cultivating in her room when she heard news from her maidservant that mentors from Canglan Academy had come to visit.

Upon hearing this news, Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow. She didn't need to think twice to know that it must be those two guys from yesterday!

The front hall of the Chengwang Mansion.

As soon as Baili Hongzhuang arrived at the front hall, she saw Lu Huaiyan and Fu Hongbo enjoying snacks and tea, occasionally praising each other.

These two guys really didn't treat her as an outsider!

"Miss Baili is here!" Lu Huaiyan smiled when he saw Baili Hongzhuang, "I wonder how you've considered it overnight?"

"Still the same," Baili Hongzhuang replied indifferently.

Fu Hongbo put down the tea and stood up. The teasing expression on his face gradually faded, replaced by a serious demeanor.

"I know the reason why you don't want to join Canglan Academy is because of the tests we gave you."

"We did something wrong in this matter. However, your displayed strength has attracted our attention, so we wanted to test your depth."

"For that, we apologize to you."

Fu Hongbo's eyes were sincere and serious. As an elder apologizing to a younger generation, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.

After all, if such a thing happened to him, he would also be very displeased.

"I hope you don't mind."

A faint smile appeared on Baili Hongzhuang's lips, resembling a blooming lotus. "I apologize for my attitude towards both of you earlier."

Since Lu Huaiyan and Fu Hongbo had taken this step, she naturally wouldn't hold onto it. She admired their magnanimity.

Upon hearing Baili Hongzhuang's words, Fu Hongbo and Lu Huaiyan immediately sat back in their original positions and continued to enjoy their snacks. "Young lady, the tea and snacks in your mansion are indeed good."

Seeing the rapid change in the two's attitudes, even the way they addressed her switched within a short period of time, Baili Hongzhuang's mouth twitched. These two guys rarely seemed serious!

With ink-black eyes gleaming with a faint smile, Fu Hongbo's attitude actually made her more accustomed to it.

"If you think they're good, I'll have the kitchen prepare more for you to take away," Baili Hongzhuang said calmly.

"Haha, you're really generous!" Fu Hongbo laughed.

"After one month, it will be the enrollment day at Canglan Academy. Don't be late," Lu Huaiyan reminded.

Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "I will report on time."

"In that case, we should take our leave. Work hard in your cultivation, and we'll wait for you at Canglan Academy," Fu Hongbo smiled.

"Alright."

Baili Hongzhuang had just seen off Fu Hongbo and the others when she encountered Shao Zifan and Zhao Yunqian at the entrance of the Chengwang Mansion.

When Shao Zifan saw Baili Hongzhuang, he waved his hand repeatedly. "Baili Hongzhuang!"

Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow. She didn't expect Shao Zifan to come looking for her. The Imperial Hunting Competition had just ended, and everyone should be recuperating in the mansion.

"You're looking for me?" Baili Hongzhuang nodded.

Shao Zifan nodded, "There's an auction today at Tianxiang Trading Company. I heard that there are many treasures there. Yunqian and I happened to pass by and wanted to ask if you're interested."

"An auction?" Baili Hongzhuang's bright eyes flickered, and a beautiful smile bloomed on her lips. "I'd like to go and see."

In the Holy Abyss Continent, if cultivators wanted to find the things they needed, besides searching in stores, there was another way, which was to participate in an auction.

The items auctioned in the event were usually related to cultivation, and their value was often much higher than what could be found in regular stores. However, the prices they fetched were also higher.

Baili Hongzhuang was very interested in this auction. Perhaps she could acquire the things she needed.

What she lacked most at the moment was a suitable weapon. Ordinary swords were useless; it was evident from her sword being directly bitten and broken by the Dark Abyss Wolf King.

"The auction starts at three in the afternoon. Let's meet directly at Tianxiang Trading Company!" Shao Zifan smiled.

Baili Hongzhuang nodded her head lightly. It was still early, and there was a long time before the auction started. She decided to go back and check on the demonic beast egg first!

Last night, she had been preoccupied with gathering information about Canglan Academy and had forgotten about the demonic beast egg. Now that she remembered, she was curious to see what kind of spirit pet it was!

Returning to her room, Baili Hongzhuang took out the demonic beast egg. The egg was only twenty centimeters tall, pure white in color, and covered in intricate and mysterious seals, indicating the power of the seal.

Baili Hongzhuang had some knowledge about beast taming techniques, but looking at the seals on the demonic beast egg, she couldn't help but furrow her brows.

The difference of a thousand years was unexpectedly so vast; these seals were completely different from the ones she had seen before.

"Master, I feel that this seal is extraordinary," Xiao Hei spoke up.

Little Bai nodded, "I feel that the sealed demonic beast inside seems even more unusual. I can sense its aura."

Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were also types of demonic beasts, but they didn't know what species they belonged to.

Demonic beasts were different from humans; they had a strict hierarchy, and lower-ranking demonic beasts would naturally submit from the bottom of their hearts when facing higher-ranking ones.

Although the black and white furballs didn't know what kind of demonic beasts they were, they were well aware that their rank was definitely not low.

If Xiao Hei described it as extraordinary, it meant that the demonic beast sealed within the egg was extraordinary as well!
