Chapter 3871: Luck

Little did they know, this Spirit Recovery Pill had been thoroughly revamped by Qiao Mu with the addition of Purple Nethergrass, an herb that accelerates spirit recovery.

Even if one's spiritual power reached exhaustion, just one pill would bring them back to a state of abundant spiritual power within minutes.

This was naturally a terrifying pill in combat.

For example, if the opponent had beaten you to a pulp, and victory was within sight, you were about to collapse, and then suddenly, they pop such a pill, watching them instantly regain their vitality and come back strong—wouldn't that be an utterly frustrating experience?

Everyone took a deep breath. With their spiritual power restored, they continued to run forward with Qiao Mu and her group.

Along the way, they occasionally encountered two mercenary teams, who were almost instantly enveloped and devoured by the rapidly swarming man-eating bees within a single breath.

Everyone secretly gasped in fear, and their pace quickened even more.

Are you kidding? In the prime of their youth, no one wanted to die in this wretched place!

"The poisonous bees are coming!" All along the way, they heard miserable shrieks, voices that would disappear within moments amidst the swarm.

Wherever the man-eating bees passed, only skeletal remains were left behind.

"The bee swarm has attacked nine times already, and a quarter of an hour is almost up. Fellow classmates, what should we do next?" Cao Qi, whom Duanmu Qing was carrying, asked with a dull expression.

While everyone was frantically running, Bookworm Cao's focus was indeed different from others.

But his pointed question sent a chill down everyone's spines.

Yes, Little Stoic Qiao had said that this defensive talisman array, protecting so many people, could at most last for a quarter of an hour and withstand ten attacks from the bee swarm!

Was it already about to give out so soon?

Then wouldn't they all become... souls claimed by bees?

Duanmu Qing smiled faintly, "Don't worry."

Bookworm Cao opened his mouth. The Royal Academy students around him, though unsure what Duanmu Qing meant, all felt a prickle of fear.

"Boom!" The bee swarm launched its tenth deadly attack.

Qiao Mu moved a finger, pulled out another defensive talisman array composed of thirty-six jade talismans, and threw it into the sky above them.

The intense radiance of the jade talismans suddenly opened up a natural barrier, replacing the previous talisman array whose light was gradually dimming.

Qiao Mu held the previously depleted talisman array in her hand, calmly replenishing its power while saying blandly, "How much longer until we reach that chasm?"

So annoying, being chased by these buzzing man-eating bees. She really wanted to kill them because they were too noisy.

Mo Lian held his wife's small hand, feeling an inexplicable contentment in his heart. Even if he was chased to the ends of the earth with his wife, as long as he could hold his little wife's hand, he would be satisfied.

Second Young Master Qin snorted coldly and said faintly, "Three miles."

Duan Yue couldn't help but glance at him sideways. "So, Qin Er, you also went there just now?"

"Luck," Second Young Master Qin coldly retorted to Student Duan Yue.

Since your team can even pick phoenix flowers from the dirt, why can't someone else's team find the Millennium Phoenix Wood before you?

Heh heh!

Duan Yue blinked, looking innocently at Little Qiao beside him. "Qiao Qiao, he's rebutting me!"

Little Qiao glared, shooting a look at Second Young Master Qin. "If you want to compare luck, come at me!"

Everyone suddenly felt speechless, not knowing why...
