In the end, Han Xing did not go to the genius gathering.
On second thought, it was meaningless because Han Xing realized that he was somehow tied to Tang Ling's warship.
Aside from the promise he made to the Ro siblings, he was already in Dvesha Moha.
Since he was in Dvesha Moha, it was an unchangeable position.
Dvesha Moha was actually a good place to be.
Han Xing was not an idiot. After feeding Monty for three days, his sword skills had improved by leaps and bounds, and he could even feel the sword intent more directly.
Because no matter how intelligent Monty was, it did not know any systematic Sword Styles. It relied on its most natural instincts to 'exchange blows' with Han Xing.
It was undoubtedly a great help in sensing the sword intent.
"Forget it. Let's go check on Tang Ling." Thinking about how Tang Ling met Higan and Tang Long yesterday afternoon, Han Xing felt sad for Tang Ling.

"Why didn't you go to the genius gathering?" Tang Ling was seriously carving a piece of scrap material in his hand.
He had asked Boss Huang for the scrap material along with a set of carving tools.
It was rare for Boss Huang to be generous and give it to Tang Ling. According to him, it was a good thing for Tang Ling to learn how to use the iron carving.
Tang Ling possessed Precise Instinct, and his control over his body was unusually strong, so it was no doubt that he had a pair of skillful hands.
As he asked Han Xing, an exquisite little umbrella the size of half a pinky was carved out from his carving knife. It looked rather cute and delicate.
"I'm not going. What's the point? I'm not a free genius anymore. I'm yours, Bro. "As Han Xing spoke, he quietly put the little umbrella into his pocket.
He had no idea what it was, but his instinct told him that it looked cute. It might be a good tool to woo girls.
"Can you not be so disgusting? What do you mean by you're mine? " Tang Ling saw Han Xing's little action, but he did not care. He was just a piece of scrap material for practice anyway.
"Oh, that's what I mean. Oh right, Big Brother, Ro Li and Ro Xin didn't go either, "Han Xing said.
"They're not geniuses yet," Tang Ling said calmly. He knew that once Ro Li broke free from the shackles of his bloodline and Ro Xin achieved something, they would be on par with the other geniuses.
"Bro, what do you think the geniuses will do when they gather? Who organized this gathering? What's the purpose? "Han Xing sneakily took a cigarette from the box on Tang Ling's desk and lit it up.
Actually, he had a vague answer in his mind, but he wanted to hear Tang Ling's opinion.
"What? The opening of the Life and Death Ring and the establishment of a navigational warship, how could the major forces be willing to be left out? I don't know who organized this gathering. All I know is that the organizer is warning the bigger factions to stay out of the game that Tang Long and I started. Let us kids play by ourselves, "Tang Ling said casually because deep down in his bones, he did not care about it at all.
No matter how the situation in the outside world changed, Tang Ling was still himself. Since the night of the sudden change, he had gotten used to fighting the big factions alone.
Han Xing's eyes shone for a second before he spat out a puff of smoke as if nothing had happened. He realized that the more he understood Tang Ling, the more extraordinary he felt.
Tang Ling was not only smart, but he also had wisdom. He could see things more clearly than Tang Ling.
Maybe the way he dealt with Higan's matter was also his unique wisdom …
With that in mind, Han Xing asked, "Brother, then why did they gather together …"
"Since they are geniuses, they will also participate in the formulation of the rules. You already have the answer in your heart, so why do you have to ask me? "Tang Ling stretched his body and cleaned up the crumbs on the table before throwing them into the trash can.
There were already some materials in his drawer. These were the materials needed to draw simple body arrays.
Tang Ling asked the two Glutinous Dumplings to buy it for him because he could not afford to delay the practice of body arraynology anymore.
In the Life and Death Arena, it was always good to have a few more trump cards.
In this way, the good days of being able to sleep well every day were coming to an end.
"Is there anything else?" Tang Ling wanted to practice drawing the body array.
"Nope." Han Xing also wanted to go back to his training.
As a matter of fact, no genius could slack off.
"Hold on," Tang Ling called out to Han Xing.
Han Xing turned around and saw a bright light draw an arc in the air before it leaped towards him.
Han Xing grabbed the light and took a closer look at it. It was a Black Sea coin.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Han Xing was touched. A Black Sea coin was not enough to buy Han Xing over. It all depended on the situation and the attitude of the person who gave the coin to him.
"Don't steal my cigarettes anymore," Tang Ling said calmly.
Han Xing walked out of Tang Ling's room with a Black Sea coin in his hand. His feelings towards Tang Ling were indescribable.
Han Xing might be lively and funny, but he did not have many friends. Geniuses were more or less lonely, and even Han Xing could not escape from this reality.
After Han Xing left the room, Tang Ling took out the Horror Lullaby from the drawer. Every time Han Xing appeared, the lullaby would react strangely.
However, the strange thing was, the lullaby would only react but not reveal Han Xing's name.
Unlike Ro Li, his name would appear on the lullaby. Why? Tang Ling thought about the past that Ro Li's father had told him.
The real Horror Lullaby was a book.

The gathering of geniuses ended.
However, Darkness Port fell into an unknown period of silence again.
It was as if nothing major had happened. There were no more Desperado Ring events, no more Life and Death Arena games, and no more geniuses gathering at the Dreamy Visitor.
In short, everything was normal.
Tang Ling became exceptionally busy. Every day, he would smith, cultivate, practice drawing the body array, and squeeze out some time to carve the scraps.
No one knew why Tang Ling was carving, but it was a good thing for the two little balls. The two of them seized the opportunity to collect a lot of Tang Ling's little umbrellas and had a lot of fun with them.
During this period of time, Tang Ling only went out once to get Zero.
However, the result baffled Tang Ling. As he wished, he met Zero, a stranger who seemed a little violent and dignified.
However, during this meeting, Zero told Tang Ling, "It's not time yet, so there's no need for us to meet."
What did he mean? Nevertheless, Tang Ling had to accept the result because according to Su Siao, he did not give Tang Ling any specific goal. All he had to do was find Zero.
Finding Zero was Tang Ling's biggest goal in coming to Darkness Port, but after achieving it, he was forced to stay in the city. All sorts of things kept him busy, preventing him from leaving.
He lived his life in peace. He worked harder than anyone else and improved by leaps and bounds.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed, and he was almost done mastering the strength of nine bulls.
He was even more familiar with the drawing of the body array. He even helped Han Xing draw a few single-use basic body arrays so that Han Xing could shine in the ring. Tang Ling followed Han Xing and bought the peripherals, earning him quite a bit of money.
They were known as the Thieving Duo.
Of course, no matter how thieving they were, they were no match for Boss Huang, so Boss Huang exploited them for a lot of money.
However, the exploited money was not meaningless. At least, Han Xing got his hands on a sword technique analysis book that Boss Huang boasted was exclusive and could not be found anywhere else in the world.
As for Tang Ling, Boss Huang granted him the so-called Level 2 clearance, which allowed him to read some books about talents even though they were just the basics of the basics.
Tang Ling did not understand why he had to learn about all these messy talents, but Boss Huang told him that they were very important to him.
Speaking of which, his days were not bad at all. Higan was like a shooting star that flashed across Tang Ling's life as if she had never appeared before.
As for the Ro siblings, they had been to Dvesha Moha a few times, so they got to know Boss Huang and the two little balls better.
Darkness Port was peaceful.
No one purposely mentioned the Life Or Death Ring anymore. Everyone knew a huge undercurrent was brewing, so all they had to do was wait for it to happen.
When will it erupt?
A lot of people speculated that it would happen on Medley Sea Day.
After all, it was the most important festival in Darkness Port. If the Life Or Death Ring was officially activated on that day, what kind of explosive effect would it bring?
The festive atmosphere in Darkness Port was getting heavier and it was only two days away from Medley Sea Day.
Higan sat quietly on the edge of the roof, just like how she did in Starstay City. She sat on the edge of Sky Castle every day, gazing at the sunset.
Ten days had passed.
Higan looked a little haggard, but the more she looked like that, the more people pitied her.
She was a sight to behold. Even though a lot of people labeled her as Tang Long, it did not stop many young men who had their first awakening of love from watching her from afar.
Higan did not care about all that. All she knew was that she had missed Tang Ling for 12 days, which meant that she had been with Tang Long for 12 days.
Was the calculation a little too heartless?
No, it was already the limit. She could feel her body withering like the scab on her palm. It was healing, but it looked like a withered petal.
"Must you leave?" Tang Long somehow walked up to the roof and sat beside Higan.
"Mm-hmm." Higan nodded.
"Sure." Tang Long did not feel heavy in his heart. Instead, he heaved a breath of relief.
It was better that Higan was not in Darkness Port. After all, he and Tang Ling were about to start the Life Or Death Ring game. He was afraid that the slightest movement would arouse Higan's feelings for Tang Ling.
Little did he know that the past few days were not what he thought it would be. Higan's feelings for Tang Ling were not wearing away. Instead, as the days went by without him, the feelings grew day by day and eventually became a heart-wrenching torture.
Of course, Higan had to leave. She had her own plans and there was no need to wait anymore.
Tang Long, on the other hand, believed that everything was progressing in a good direction. After Higan left Darkness Port, she would have nothing to do with Tang Ling anymore.
When the wagon arrived, Higan would ride the wagon to the port of Darkness Port and the Stardust Council would send a fast ship to pick her up.
"Let's go then. I'll send you off." Tang Long still had a warm smile on his face. After he dealt with everything in Darkness Port, he would return to Starstay City without stopping.
In his heart, after his return, he did not want to be separated from Higan anymore. He wanted to formally propose a marriage to his godfather.
