Chapter 123: This pool… the Dragon Palace wants it!

The Monkey King successfully achieved Core Formation, and the expressions of everyone present were not looking good; Xu Zhizhi was even scratching his ears and cheeks in anxiety.

If it were the previous group of Foundation Establishment monkeys, he would have the confidence to lead the Dragon Palace members to drive them away…

But encountering a Great Demon, this Dragon Palace strategist had a splitting headache; this thing was much more troublesome than Chu Ren.

Even Chu Ren would not be a match for the Monkey King before them. A Foundation Establishment fighting a Core Formation—that is the specialty of the top few Prodigies on the heavens pride ranking, and it certainly has nothing to do with this Chu Ren.

With the Core condensed, the Monkey King immediately walked out of the Dragon Transformation Blood Pool. Just now, the monkeys did not act rashly when facing the invading external enemies; they were all guarding it during its Breakthrough.

“Let’s see what you do.” Chu Ren laughed, rode his Flood Dragon, and turned to leave, not intending to clash head-on with this Monkey King.

“Damn it, this guy only knows how to fight amongst his own kind. He dares to fight us for the blood pool, but won’t fight this Demon Core Monkey King! Spineless guy.” Seeing this, Gao Sheng was stunned for a moment, then cursed loudly.

Wang Xiao also frowned, not expecting Chu Ren to run away directly. However, the situation was indeed dangerous; if they were not careful, everyone here might be wiped out.

After all, this Monkey King was not fighting alone; it had dozens of Foundation Establishment monkey demons under its command!

“Screeeaaaah!!!”

The Monkey King immediately attacked. Just its roar alone caused the surrounding mountains to collapse and giant rocks to shatter. A terrifying demonic pressure descended, and the Dragon Palace members also felt the urge to retreat.

“Within the God-Trapping Formation, even immortals cannot escape; the Nine Armies Map hides the true mystery!!”

“Everyone, do you know the God-Trapping Formation!!!”

“Teacher Lu from the Academy should have taught the method to enter the Formation!”

Just at this moment, among the Dragon Palace members, a youth in yellow clothes spoke up.

“Divine Formation Sect, Zhou Lang.” When Xu Zhizhi saw this person stand out, his eyes lit up slightly.

Zhou Lang, hailing from the Divine Formation Sect, was proficient in the Dao of Formations. Among the new students who joined the Dragon Palace, he had the most Pet Beasts. By his side were a Dragon Snake, Bird Demon, Turtle Demon, and Tiger Demon, even more Pet Beasts than Lin Jing kept.

Xu Zhizhi analyzed that the other party likely intended to use his Pet Beasts as the core of the Formation to practice the Divine Formation Sect’s Four Saints Killing Formation.

“An Opportunity is not easily found; it would be a pity to miss it.”

“I will set up the Formation. Everyone, please enter the Formation to fight the enemy together!”

Whether in the assessment or among the new students, the Divine Formation Sect Genius Zhou Lang had been inconspicuous. But now, as he spoke, Xu Zhizhi was overjoyed.

“Those who can enter the Dragon Palace are no mediocre talents; this situation can be solved.”

“Everyone, follow Brother Zhou’s instructions.” With a Genius proficient in the Dao of Formations here, the dozen or so Dragon Palace Foundation Establishment Geniuses were enough to trap and kill the Great Demon with a Demon Core, Xu Zhizhi was certain!

Boom!

The Divine Formation Sect Genius Zhou Lang acted as the Formation eye, took out the Formation Flags, and quickly set up the Formation. The Monkey King vaguely sensed the threat and immediately attacked Zhou Lang, but the Formation had already taken shape.

“Not bad!”

The Academy teacher sitting cross-legged in the clouds nodded and said, “This Zhou Lang is not bad. To be able to set up the God-Trapping Formation so quickly, and even guide others into the Formation so rapidly.”

The Academy Autumn Examination is truly the best stage for practitioners of the Hidden Dragon Secret Technique to showcase themselves. The Dragon Palace was created by Lin Jing; who would have thought that right now, it would be one of its ordinary members setting up a Formation to lead the new students in trapping and killing a Great Demon!!

Under the blessing of the Formation, this Great Demon that had just achieved a Breakthrough was instantly suppressed by the group of Geniuses, and it was defeated without even a chance to resist.

“And those monkey demons, knock them out and tie them up too!” Xu Zhizhi shouted. Borrowing the remaining power of the God-Trapping Formation, the Dragon Palace members immediately caused chaos among the monkey pack in the Dragon Transformation Blood Pool. With the Monkey King defeated, they had already scattered.

In almost no time at all, the Dragon Palace members achieved a complete victory.

The Formation dissipated. Zhou Lang, who was leading, was pale, and the others looked weak. Although this God-Trapping Formation was strong, allowing a group of Cultivators who had just stepped into Foundation Establishment to defeat a Great Demon and suppress dozens of Foundation Establishment monkey demons, the consumption was also huge.

Everyone quickly consumed Medicinal Pills to restore their True Essence. Although the consumption was huge, everyone had a look of joy on their faces; it was all worth it.

Not to mention successfully suppressing the monkey pack, this Dragon Transformation Blood Pool right now could be considered the best trophy.

“Brother Zhou is amazing. In this battle, you deserve the greatest credit. I will definitely report this to the Palace Master—” Xu Zhizhi said with admiration.

There are indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Academy. This Divine Formation Sect’s Zhou Lang did not show his true colors before; who knew he was this fierce.

“I have already seen it.”

Just as Xu Zhizhi was thinking about rewarding merits, a figure appeared in the air. Lin Jing looked at the crowd with surprise; he felt that he had slightly underestimated this group of new students.

Even the Great Demon with a Demon Core that he felt was tricky, and which even the Pine Leaf Squirrel could not steadily take down upon attacking, had actually been resolved by the Dragon Palace members while he was on his way…

This is the power of an organization!

“You finally arrived.” Seeing Lin Jing, Xu Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief.

“Just make the Rising Dragon Pill a bit cheaper.” Zhou Lang chuckled and said, “However, I feel that this Dragon Blood Medicine Pool should have an effect not inferior to the Rising Dragon Pill.”

Dragon Blood Medicine Pool—Lin Jing looked at this place and instantly realized that this was the blood of the Nan Shan Demon Emperor, because the scent of the blood was very similar to the blood that flowed from the Nan Shan Demon Emperor’s demigod Incarnation that Divine Pine had killed.

The Academy actually threw the Demon Emperor’s blood into the Autumn Examination as an Opportunity…

Lin Jing said, “Indeed, the effect of this medicine pool is not bad. Everyone can bring their Pet Beasts to soak in it together.”

“That’s right, hurry up and soak!!!” Xu Zhizhi said, “Just now, the Monkey King’s Breakthrough will probably attract quite a few people over. And that Chu Ren from earlier will definitely come back to snatch the Opportunity later.”

“No need to worry.”

Lin Jing looked at the group taking their Medicinal Pills and said, “Since this territory was conquered by the Dragon Palace, it is ours.”

“Everyone, rest assured and soak. I will be your Protector.”

“Whoever wants to snatch the blood pool must first get past me.”

“Just based on you, someone in the Qi Training Stage?” As soon as Lin Jing finished speaking, the clouds in the sky churned. Chu Ren, who had avoided the Monkey King earlier, indeed returned riding the Flood Dragon. Seeing that the monkey pack had been dealt with and the new students had severely depleted their True Essence, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Especially Lin Jing’s words, which made him find it even more amusing.

Glancing coldly over, Lin Jing directly threw out the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle. The next instant, over a hundred Mosquito Beasts swarmed out and headed straight for Chu Ren.

Seeing Lin Jing release over a hundred Qi Training Stage mosquitoes, Chu Ren’s first reaction was disdain, but the next instant, his pupils were instantly covered with shock.

Only to see the sky-filling swarm of mosquitoes turn into a black sphere, wrapping around Chu Ren. After only a few fluctuations of Daoist Magic came from within the mosquito swarm Domain, there was no more movement inside. Immediately following, a dried-up Flood Dragon and a figure fell from the sky.

“Ninety-eighth on the heavenly pride ranking, too weak. Only six places difference, far inferior to the previous Disciple from the Heavenly Sound Pavilion.” Lin Jing simply activated the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle, and relying only on the newly subdued mosquito swarm, he suppressed a Genius from the heavenly pride ranking.

With a difference of six places, Qin could still barely resist under the siege of the mosquito swarm, yet this Chu Ren had absolutely no power to parry.

“Was he the one who wanted to snatch our Dragon Palace’s things just now?” After Lin Jing finished speaking, the scene fell into silence.

“Oh, Brother Wang, you are here too.” Lin Jing discovered that Wang Xiao was also nearby.
