Wutian and the other two naturally did not lack essence. However, one million essence was a considerable amount of wealth for a person at the bottom of the Celestial realm.
Coincidentally, they were now playing the role of a person at the bottom of the hierarchy. If they refused, they might arouse Liu Lili's suspicion.
"The mission is complete. Let's go back!"
Liu Lili was in a very good mood now that she had completed the test so quickly. She was like a beautiful blue butterfly as she flew towards the teleportation gate with a pleasant laugh.
After walking out of the portal, Wutian and the other three immediately saw Sun Monan standing not far away. He had his hands in front of his chest, his head lowered and his brows furrowed.
Leng Aoxue and Sun Jiyuan had already disappeared.
A shifty-eyed man in white. He was Sun Monan's companion.
When he saw Wutian and the other three, he immediately ran to Sun Monan and said in a low voice, "Brother Sun, look. Why did they come out from the first battlefield?"
"Don't disturb me. I don't want to hear about anyone except Liu Lili," Sun Monan said without raising his head.
The man in white hurriedly said, "Brother Sun, she is Liu Lili!"
"Liu Lili?"
Sun Monan immediately raised his head and turned around. He saw four familiar figures walking straight in front of him and heading out of the hall.
"Stop right there," Sun Monan shouted.
Wutian and the other two acted as if they did not hear him. Liu Lili glanced at him with disdain and did not say a word.
Sun Monan's eyes darkened and he shouted coldly, "Stop them."
Dozens of young men and women immediately blocked in front of the four people with cold smiles on their faces.
Wutian and the other two raised their eyebrows.
Han Tian said in a low voice, "These people are making a big fuss. Don't the four law-enforcement officers care about them?"
"In their eyes, we're just clowns. If they're in a good mood, as long as they don't kill anyone, they won't care. But if they're in a bad mood and walk too heavily, they'll be punished." Liu Lili whispered.
"Punishment depends on one's mood. How interesting." Han Tian smiled evilly.
Wutian glanced at the four law-enforcement officers. As expected, all four of them had a playful look on their faces.
"No matter where I go, I will encounter such vermin."
Wutian shook his head.
If it had been Jian Yi and the others, they would definitely have stopped him at the first moment, instead of watching him like a monkey.
Sun Monan strode over and looked coldly at Wutian and the other two. He then fixed his gaze on Liu Lili and said darkly, "When did you go to the first battlefield?"
"It has something to do with you?" Liu Lili raised her eyebrows.
"You …"
Sun Monan's eyes were gloomy. He suddenly swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Then, he looked up and down at the four of them. Finally, he smiled mockingly and gloated, "I told you to team up with me, but you didn't listen. You just had to team up with these good-for-nothings. Now, not only did you come here for nothing, but you also wasted an opportunity for no reason."
Liu Lili sneered, "I'm sorry. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed because we've already completed the assessment task."
"Haha, with just the four of you, you still have the ability to complete the task? Stop joking. "Sun Monan laughed wildly as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He couldn't stop laughing at all.
The other dozens of law-enforcement officers also sneered.
"Di Tian, how long are you going to endure?" Han Tian transmitted his voice.
"Just this kind of senseless action is enough to make you angry. Your temperament still needs to be tempered." Di Tian shook his head slightly and glanced at the dozens of people in front of him. He narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Move."
The two simple and calm words made the dozens of people's pupils shrink. They instinctively moved to the side. Even they didn't know why they did that.
"Let's go! Our opponents are not these small fries, but the geniuses of the Earth Palace, the Heavenly Palace, and the Celestial Court, "Di Tian transmitted his voice.
"You're right. It's a waste of time to argue with these people." Han Tian thought to himself.
The eyes of the three of them flashed and they left directly.
Liu Lili glanced at the dozens of people who were in a daze. Then, she looked at the backs of the three people and couldn't help but have a touch of suspicion in her beautiful eyes.
"That's strange." Liu Lili muttered and didn't think much. She chased after the three people and said proudly, "Sun Monan, you have to work hard. I'll be waiting for you at the Zodiac Palace."
"Did they really pass the test?"
Sun Monan murmured.
Suddenly, he realized a very important problem. His dozens of companions had been blocking their way. How did they leave?
He looked up and was instantly furious. He shouted, "What are you doing?"
After he shouted, the dozens of people suddenly came back to their senses like a bolt from the blue!
"What's going on?"
They looked at each other and couldn't remember what had happened just now.
Moreover, they were surprised to find that their undergarments were soaked in cold sweat!
Looking at the dozens of bewildered companions, Sun Monan's anger rose. He roared in exasperation, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring them back!"
"Sun Monan, enough is enough. Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving face to your elder brother."
But at this moment, a cold voice sounded. It was one of the Enforcers.
Sun Monan shivered and hurriedly stopped the dozens of people. He turned to look at the four Enforcers and said submissively, "Four elder brothers, I was confused for a moment and lost my sense of propriety. I hope you can forgive me."
The Enforcer said lightly, "If they really completed the test, you can settle your grudges with them in the Zodiac Palace. At that time, with your elder brother's help secretly, I believe it will be more advantageous for you. If not, when you become a disciple of the Zodiac Palace, killing them will be as easy as killing ants. Do you understand? If you understand, go to the battlefield. Don't let your elder brother down. "
"Thank you, Brother Chengyi, for your advice."
Sun Monan cupped his hands and thanked him.
Then, he called his companions and rushed toward the portal.
After the dozens of people entered the battlefield one after another, the Enforcer named Chengyi said to the other three companions, "Did you notice that the red-haired man suddenly changed?"
"Did we?"
One of the Enforcers smiled and said, "Sun Monan's companions are only at the early half-step Divine Transformation realm. As for the red-haired man, his strength is at the peak of the early Divine Transformation realm. It's natural for them to be unable to withstand his pressure, so it's normal for them to retreat."
"If that's the case, then it must have been my misconception."
Chengyi shook his head and smiled, not caring too much about it.
…
At the same time.
The registration hall was also filled with heated discussions.
From the time Wutian and the others registered to leaving the battlefield and returning to the hall, it had only been an hour at most.
However, to have completed the assessment mission in only an hour, not only did the people who were originally mocking them fall into deep disbelief, even the old woman behind the counter, who had always been calm and ordinary, could not help but raise her head and began to seriously size up the few of them.
After a moment, she revealed a kind smile and said, "To be able to complete the test in just an hour, Di Tian, Liu Lili, the two of you are quite good."
It was clear that she attributed all of this to Di Tian and Liu Lili. As for Han Tian and Wutian, they were only basking in their glory.
As for Wutian and Liu Lili who were ignored, they didn't care about this result at all.
"Thank you for Senior's praise."
The two people cupped their hands together.
Di Tian had an indifferent expression.
Liu Lili was a bit unnatural.
At this time, the old woman was happy that she had recruited two talented disciples. She didn't notice the change in Liu Lili's expression.
Thinking for a moment, the old woman said, "Hurry and pack up. This old woman will personally lead you to the Zodiac Palace."
"What, Elder Yun will personally lead them to the Zodiac Palace?"
The hall was suddenly in an uproar.
Everyone's eyes were filled with envy.
However, as the person involved, Di Tian frowned slightly. He was thinking about the old woman's purpose.
In fact, the old woman's purpose was very simple. She wanted to personally escort Di Tian and Liu Lili safely to the Zodiac Palace.
As for the reason, it was even simpler.
To be able to complete the test in such a short time, they must be invincible among their peers.
This kind of person was one in a million and was worthy of intensive training.
At the same time, this kind of person would also be hated by others. If they were intercepted halfway, the loss would outweigh the gain.
However, Wutian and the other two didn't know this. They also didn't think that the old woman would personally escort them for such a simple purpose.
Of course, the three of them couldn't be blamed for being suspicious.
After all, ever since they stepped into the path of cultivation, they had been facing schemes and schemes. Therefore, they had already formed the idea that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the sky. If there really was a free lunch, there must be something fishy going on.
After pondering for a while, Di Tian decided to decline the old woman's kindness. He tactfully declined, "Senior Elder Yun, you are busy with official business. This junior really doesn't dare to take up your precious time. Therefore, this matter of you personally escorting us, please forget about it."
Liu Lili was anxious. She secretly transmitted her voice, "Di Tian, what are you doing? Elder Yun is one of the strongest in the entire Zodiac Palace. To have her personally escort you is a supreme honor. Why are you declining? "
Di Tian ignored her and continued, "Senior Elder Yun, it's actually not that this junior doesn't want to be escorted by senior, but I don't want this special treatment. This junior is afraid that I can't keep my heart and develop a sense of superiority over others."
These words caused Elder Yun to have a whole new level of respect for Di Tian.
She said with gratification, "You possess strength that surpasses cultivators of the same realm and a mental state that surpasses your peers. In the future, you will surely have extraordinary achievements. Alright, this old woman will take back what I said before. I hope you can keep that ordinary heart of yours for the rest of your life."
"This junior will bear that in mind." Di Tian cupped his hands.
"Take out the jade slips I gave you before." The old woman said.
Hearing this, the four of them took out jade slips one after another and placed them on the cabinet.
The old woman's bony fingers pointed repeatedly, and four divine rainbows merged into the jade slips.
Instantly, a small black sword appeared on the four jade slips.
"This is the symbol of your status. Remember to take care of it carefully. Go." The old woman instructed and then waved her hand.
"This junior will take his leave."
Wutian and the other two cupped their hands, grabbed their respective jade slips, and turned to leave.
"This is so infuriating."
Liu Lili stomped her feet, grabbed the jade slips, and angrily followed.
"Phew … It's unbelievable. That man named Di Tian actually refused Elder Yun's escort."
"Yeah, Elder Yun is in the Zodiac Palace. Even the Lord Of The Palace has to respect her. Normally, it's hard for us to even talk to her!"
"Isn't that so? If I can get Elder Yun to personally escort me to the Zodiac Palace, it's worth it even if I die. But he gave a bunch of reasons to refuse. I really don't understand what's in his head."
"Sigh, don't say anymore. Comparisons are odious."
The crowd whispered. Some said that Di Tian was an idiot, some said that he was an idiot, and some even said that he was pretending to be virtuous.
In short, there were not many who really admired him.
But there was one difference. That was, the initial disdain had disappeared and was replaced by fear.
