Locke: Daily intelligence, I'm going crazy finding bargains!

The path down the mountain was much easier than the path up. Luo Xing walked in front, glancing at Xu Yifei every now and then out of the corner of his eye.

The more Luo Xing looked at the girl, the more he felt that she was quite different from Xu Yifei in the photos.

In the photo, Xu Yifei has a bright smile, giving people a very approachable feeling, but the one in front of you is cold and aloof, giving people a feeling that strangers should not approach.

Luo Xing didn't think much of it, since he didn't have any other ideas anyway, and continued walking forward.

Golden Bean stayed close to Xu Yifei, talking non-stop the whole way. Xu Yifei would occasionally hum in agreement or give a polite smile.

Su Mumu clung tightly to Luo Xing's arm the whole way, pinching it every now and then.

Luo Xing glanced at her helplessly, but said nothing.

"How much longer until we reach the camp?" Su Mumu asked softly.

"Soon."

What time does the match start?

Luo Xing paused, glanced at his wrist, and silently calculated in his mind. "One hour left."

Su Mumu's smile froze, and she asked anxiously, "...Will we make it?"

"rest assured."

Hearing their conversation, Huang Jindou jumped back from beside Xu Yifei and poked Luo Xing's arm with a strange look: "Wait, an hour? Brother Xing, I'm a contestant in this competition too!"

Luo Xing turned to look at him: "I know."

"You know? You... and you're still so calm?!" Golden Bean said helplessly.

"What's the rush? We'll make it." Luo Xing patted his shoulder.

Luo Xing returned to the camp, took out the token, and tossed it into the air.

The token hovered in mid-air, flashed with golden light, and a semi-transparent settlement panel unfolded.

[Secret Realm Results in Progress...]

[Bosses defeated: 3 (including the hidden boss, Irelong)]

[NPC defeated: ×2]

[Treasure Chest Opened: ×7]

Overall Rating: SS

[Rewards: Treasure Map x1, Light-Catching Orb x1 (100% capture rate)]

Golden Bean came closer, looking at the treasure map. "Where is this?"

"Let's study it when we get back!" Luo Xing put the items into the star chart, and the token disappeared into the air.

Luo Xing turned around, walked to the iron cage, and found that a piece of ice brick had appeared in his hand.

The three people in the cage were hanging their heads because of the beating from Xue Douding, but they immediately perked up when they saw Luo Xing walking over with a brick.

The bald man and the tall, thin man exchanged a glance, their legs went weak, and they both shrunk into the corner, pushing and shoving each other to push their baseball caps to the front.

"No, no, no! Sir, we were wrong, we'll never do it again!" The bald man's voice trembled.

"Please, please! I have elderly parents and young children to support, I'm just here to make a living!" the tall, thin man pleaded.

With a smile on his face, Luo Xing bent down and gently tapped the ice block against the cage door bars.

"Smack."

A crisp sound.

Both of them shut their mouths at the same time.

Luo Xing turned around, and just as the three of them thought everything was alright, he raised a brick and brought it down. Each of them took a solid hit, their eyes rolled back, and they all lay down quietly.

Luo Xing clapped his hands, turned around, and walked towards Xu Yifei.

Xu Yifei stood there, her face paling. She took a half step back, her eyes fixed on the ice block in Luo Xing's hand. She subconsciously took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes.

Her hands were clasped tightly together, and to Luo Xing's surprise, she showed no intention of summoning a spirit to resist.

"Brother Xing, what are you doing! You can't bully girls!" Huang Jindou rushed forward, stood in the middle, and spread his arms.

Before he could finish speaking, Luo Xing casually tossed the ice brick in his hand aside and clapped his hands.

Xu Yifei opened her eyes, just breathed a sigh of relief, and hadn't even had a chance to speak yet.

Luo Xing raised his right hand, and the chop landed cleanly and swiftly on her neck.

Xu Yifei closed her eyes and collapsed. Luo Xing caught her and handed her to the dumbfounded Huang Jindou.

"Hold on tight."

Su Mumu held the unconscious Xu Yifei, her mouth open for a long time, but she couldn't utter a single word.

Luo Xing didn't want to expose the secrets of the star chart to outsiders. After confirming that no one was around, Luo Xing summoned the star chart and began to select the area.

Four people were selected, along with an iron cage. The target location was set to the battlefield.

"Hurry up."

Luo Xing held Su Mumu's hand with his left hand and hugged Xu Yifei in his right. The star chart shone brightly, and the teleportation was activated.

On the training ground where the battle was about to begin, Old Wang was almost going crazy. The battle was about to start in a few minutes.

Except for two students from No. 1 Middle School and one student from No. 2 Middle School, all other contestants have completed their reports, and the leaders on stage are reading the last few paragraphs of their opening remarks from their prepared scripts.

Old Wang stood in the corner of the line, his phone screen almost burning out. He had sent countless messages, all of which were read but not replied to.

Bai Qiuxue held little Pal in one arm and put the other hand in her pocket. Little Pal's ears drooped, and he leaned lazily against her, enjoying the soft feeling.

"What on earth did those two little rascals do?" Old Wang sighed.

"They must have entered the secret realm. They haven't come out yet, so they probably won't make it in time." Bai Qiuxue seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold.

Old Wang pondered with a pained expression who could be a substitute: "Who should we bring on? Besides Luo Xing and Su Mumu, the strongest player currently on the field is Lei Lei, a level 14 rare Winter Snow Sparrow, and the other is Spark, a level 10 rare player from Class 2."

"None of the substitutes have a level 10 spirit. The second and third schools each have a prodigy who I heard has contracted an epic spirit and completed the first transformation. How can we compare?"

Bai Qiuxue finally turned her head to look at him.

"Then just admit defeat."

"...Teacher Bai!"

"It's over, it's all over." Old Wang slumped into a chair, staring blankly at the sky.

"This year, forget about securing second place or even aiming for first, I probably can't even beat that bottom-ranked school, No. 4 High School. I've completely lost face."

He sighed, his gaze falling on Lei Lei in the corner: "Lei Lei, you'll lead the charge later. Your Winter Sparrow is at least level 14, try to hold on a little longer, don't lose too badly."

The leader on the stage finally finished his opening remarks, cleared his throat, and announced, "Now, the 17th Four Schools Showdown officially begins..."

Before he could finish speaking, a shout suddenly came from the sky.

Everyone's attention was drawn to the sudden sound, and they looked up.

Three figures plummeted straight down from the sky. One of them was holding someone in his arms, while the other stood on a huge iron cage with the chains clanging.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh..."

Bean has a very loud voice, and its body spins freely in the air.

"Brother Xing...! You're really sabotaging me! Help!!"

The students below were terrified. The once orderly formation instantly erupted into chaos, and the crowd scattered and fled like a flock of frightened sheep.

Old Wang rubbed his eyes in disbelief, pointed to the sky, and watched as the large iron cage crashed down on his head.

"Luo Xing?"

Bai Qiuxue finally turned her head to look at him.

"Then just admit defeat."

"...Teacher Bai!"

"It's over, it's all over." Old Wang slumped into a chair, staring blankly at the sky.

"This year, forget about securing second place or even aiming for first, I probably can't even beat that bottom-ranked school, No. 4 High School. I've completely lost face."
