For a moment, Ling Hong's eyes were shining as he looked at Lonemoon. He always felt that Lonemoon was able to reveal some unimaginable abilities from time to time.
Lonemoon's expression was a little ugly. He had specially walked around the academy just now, trying to find the location of that spirit seed, but to no avail. He couldn't help but suspect the authenticity of that prize. Was the spirit seed really in the academy?
"Ling Hong!" He couldn't help but ask for confirmation.
"Ah! Huh? "Ling Hong was stunned, then reacted." Fellow Daoist, please speak. "
"I heard that the prize for this competition is a colorful egg?"
"Yes." He thought for a moment and nodded. "It seems so. I heard that this egg is full of immortal Qi. If you can get it, your cultivation might increase greatly."
"Oh, there's such a magical egg? I wonder if Fellow Daoist Ling has seen it before? "
"I haven't seen it before." He shook his head honestly. "But this egg was brought back by chance when the teacher went to the Flame Mountain in the north for a mission." He thought of something and his expression darkened. "My big brother injured his leg because of that."
"I see. Sorry to mention this! "
"No, no, no." He shook his head nonchalantly. "Thanks to you, my big brother has already drunk the medicine and will get better soon. You don't have to worry anymore. Oh right, if Fellow Daoist Lonemoon is curious about that colored egg, the teachers will officially announce the prize in the second competition three days later. You can see it then. "
"Oh." Lonemoon was stunned for a moment. He hid the light in his eyes and nodded. His heart settled, he immediately changed the topic and talked about something else. It was good that they could see the spirit seed. It seemed like they could confirm in three days if it was what they were looking for.

Three days later.
The second round of the league.
Early in the morning, all the candidates who passed the first round arrived at Immortal Spirit Academy. Compared to the sea of people last time, the number of people this time was several times fewer. There were only 75 people who passed the first round. Including the teachers from the various academies, there were less than 200 people present. It seemed a little deserted.
The competition venue this time was no longer outside, but moved inside Immortal Spirit Academy. Lonemoon and the others went in with Ling Hong and the others. Compared to the previous time when no one paid any attention to them, the moment they entered, many people came up to greet them warmly. They were obviously customers from the previous round. Lonemoon smiled and responded to them one by one. Occasionally, he would say a few polite words. After a while, the rules of the competition were announced from above.
A few teachers from the Immortal Academy appeared on the stage. Lonemoon glanced at them, but did not see Teacher Yan from last time. Ling Hong was right, the semi-finals had indeed begun to announce the prizes. In this competition, the top three would each get a high-grade magic tool, and the first place would indeed get that Easter egg. The moment the Easter egg was revealed, Lonemoon sensed a faint trace of original source Qi on it.
"Shen Ying." Lonemoon nudged the person beside him. "Is this it?"
"Hmm, it's … right?" Shen Ying looked up and tilted her head.
"Do we do it now?" Yi Qing sent a voice transmission.
Lonemoon frowned and turned to look at Ling Hong and the others. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, since we've already confirmed that it's a spirit seed and we've entered the second round, why don't we win this prize openly? It's just a waste of time, there's no need to implicate others."
The master and disciple exchanged a look, then looked at Ling Hong and the others and nodded. Indeed, if he directly made a move now, Ling Hong and the others would definitely be thought of as their accomplices. They might as well win the competition and get the prize openly.
After explaining the rules, the start of the competition was announced. The second round of competition was very simple. Everyone entered the maze ahead. Those who could find the exit within six hours would pass.
Lonemoon activated his divine perception and explored the maze ahead. He discovered that it was a maze made up of many arrays. The deeper they went, the more complicated the arrays became. He thought for a moment and took out a few communication talismans and placed them in their hands. "Once we enter, we'll be teleported to different places at the edges. We'll use this to contact each other. Let's meet up first. Don't act rashly. "After he finished speaking, he turned to Shen Ying and emphasized," Especially you! "
"Huh?" Shen Ying looked innocent.
"What huh!" Don't you have any f * cking idea about your dark history? "The eye of this maze array should be at the center. Don't move around after we enter. Just stay where you are and wait. When we meet up, we'll go to the eye of the array together. Don't do anything rash! "
"Oh." Alright, you're Daddy, I'll listen to you. She took the talisman.
At this time, the door of the maze was already open. The four of them took a deep breath and walked in. Almost in an instant, they felt a white light flash before their eyes. The next moment, they were in a completely different scene.
Lonemoon looked around. Chef and Shen Ying were gone. They were indeed teleported to different places. He released his divine perception to check around before activating the communication talisman in his hand.
"I'm at the west side of the entrance. Where are you? Report your positions."
"I'm at the east side." Chef's voice sounded.
"I … I should be at the south side." Buggy also replied.
"Where's Shen Ying?" Lonemoon asked directly when she didn't reply. "Where are you?"
After a while, a voice sounded from the communication talisman. "I …" Shen Ying looked around. She didn't know at all. Hence, she turned to look at the person beside her. "Big Brother, where is this?"
The man on the other side then replied with some difficulty. "The heart of the array."
"Oh, thank you!" Shen Ying nodded before replying. "Father Niu, I'm at the heart of the array."
Lonemoon: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
Buggy: "…"
How on earth did she do it? She was teleported directly to the end point!
"Wait, don't run around!" Father Niu said before cutting off the communication.
"Oh." Shen Ying then kept the talisman calmly and found a rock to sit on. She calmly took out a handful of melon seeds and started munching on them. Then, she even handed them to the person beside her. "Want some?"
Yan Luo who was guarding the array: "…"
Based on Yan Luo's cultivation, he actually didn't need to come in personally to guard the array. It was just that there were indeed some things he couldn't figure out about the preliminary round a few days ago. Though Ren Qing's words couldn't be completely trusted, he still had some suspicions about that Invincible Academy. So with the intention of finding out the truth, he temporarily replaced the teacher who was originally guarding the array to come in.
He had the intention of testing Lonemoon and the others' abilities, and even specially chose the heart of the array. He thought that if they really had the ability, they would definitely barge all the way here. By then, he would act and change the array. Whether they cheated in the previous round, they would know once they tested their abilities. Of course, if they didn't even have the ability to barge into the heart of the array, that was even more needless.
