All the contestants rested for a day.
The contestants were still fine and rested on their own. However, the other students were already in an uproar. The whole school was filled with people talking about the competition.
As for the familiar faces from the previous batches, everyone wasn't too surprised. What they talked about the most was Sima Youyue, the monster among the freshmen.
The first place would definitely be Little Seven. There was no doubt about it and there was no debate about it.
As for the second place, everyone started to debate. Some said it would be Wang Si Miao, some said it would be Hua Piao Miao.
Some said that Wang Si Miao was the second place last time, so it would definitely be him this time.
Some said that Hua Piao Miao only lost to Wang Si Miao by one and a half moves in the previous competition. She had been working hard these few years and had improved a lot. She would definitely win against Wang Si Miao and become the second place.
Others said that the second place would be Pang Jia Nan or Mo Bin. Because they performed well in the previous rounds and didn't lose to Wang Si Miao and Hua Piao Miao, the second place could also be theirs.
Ten years wasn't a long time, but it wasn't short either. To the young people who were at the peak of their career, they could have improved a lot in these ten years, or they could have stayed the same. So it was hard to say who would be the second place.
Among the many voices, there was a small voice that had a different opinion.
"I think that the second place will be Sima Youyue." Someone said.
As for this opinion, some people supported it, while others laughed. How could a freshman get to the second place? It was her luck to be able to enter the top ten.
At the same time, somewhere in the mountains behind the school, Pang Jia Nan turned left and right and came to a mountain.
He looked behind him and after confirming that there was no one, he entered the cave at the foot of the mountain.
This cave was very deep. The surrounding walls had traces of new carvings. It was obvious that it was dug out not long ago.
After he entered the cave, he took a few turns and entered the innermost stone room.
In the stone room, an old man was meditating. When he heard that he had come, he opened his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"
Pang Jia Nan bowed to the old man and said, "I've already investigated what happened last time. At that time, Sima Youyue and Little Seven gave Wang Si Miao that poison. At that time, the person who overheard our conversation was their member, Fatty Qu. I think that he was the one who told Sima Youyue the news. That was why Sima Youyue gave him the poison and hindered our previous operation. "
"Sima Youyue, where did this person come from? He actually managed to create a poison that can kill a Monarch level expert." The old man asked.
Pang Jia Nan told the old man everything he had found out about Sima Youyue and the others, allowing the old man to decide what to do next.
"That person was able to get so close to us last time. This means that he knows how to restrain his aura." The old man said, "He's called Fatty Qu, right? This person ruined our plans. Let's find a chance to get rid of him."
"Yes, Elder Peng."
"His friends must know as well. Let's deal with them together," Elder Peng said.
"What about Little Seven?"
"I really didn't expect that after searching for so many years in the inner courtyard, the Eye of the Earth had actually transformed into a human form." Elder Peng said, "No wonder we couldn't find her even after searching for so long."
"This is indeed surprising." Pang Jia Nan said, "At first, I didn't link Little Seven to the Eye of the Earth. However, I realised yesterday that Little Seven's strength is too strong. It's not something an ordinary transformed beast can possess. Therefore, she is most likely the Eye of the Earth. "
"Since we've already confirmed it, we should act quickly." Elder Peng said, "There are many experts in the academy. If I didn't have the help of a treasure, I wouldn't have been able to hide here for so long. I feel that recently, there have been divine senses scanning the back of the mountain. Therefore, I think the academy has already sensed something. "
"Then we should act quickly." Pang Jia Nan said, "If we're late, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape."
"It's not likely that we can hide from the academy and kidnap the Eye of the Earth. Let's discuss a comprehensive plan and execute it immediately." Elder Peng said.
"Should we ask for outside help?" Pang Jia Nan asked.
"Not at the moment." Elder Peng said, "The people in the academy have been watching closely. I don't dare to do anything. I'm afraid that once we contact the outside world, we will be discovered by those old fellows. How about this, you think of a way to bring the Eye of the Earth to the back of the mountain. As long as those old fellows don't come, we still have time to escape after capturing her. If it's within the academy, I'm afraid those old fellows will come even earlier. There's a space barrier in the academy. We can't tear through space. As long as we leave this area, we can leave successfully. "
"Alright, I'll definitely think of a way to bring Little Seven to the back of the mountain." Pang Jia Nan said, "However, Elder Peng, that Wang Si Miao, he …"
"The reason you gave that person last time, did he believe you?"
"He did."
"Then continue to let them do it." Elder Peng said, "It's best if they succeed. If they don't succeed, as long as we get the Eye of the Earth, everything else is trivial."
"I understand." Pang Jia Nan said, "However, Elder Peng, we can find them to kill Wang Si Miao. However, if we want to kill Sima Youyue and the others, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find them. After all, it won't be easy to find an excuse. "
Elder Peng thought for a while and said, "The situation now is different. We have to prioritize getting the Eye of the Earth. We can't let other things affect this. Let's put aside the matter of those people for now. We'll talk about it again when we get out. "
"Yes."
"Alright, you can go back first. If you don't get in touch with me, don't come here again unless the plan is carried out. Don't expose my location. "Elder Peng said.
"Yes."
Pang Jia Nan left the cave and looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, he left the back of the mountain and rushed towards the academy.
What he didn't know was that on the big tree outside the cave, there were two scarlet bees hiding in the dense leaves.
One of the scarlet bees followed him out of the back of the mountain. The other stayed on the tree and continued to watch the cave.
Parting Garden.
Sima Youyue, Little Seven and Wang Si Miao sat in the pavilion in the courtyard.
"How is it, did you hear any news?" Little Seven asked.
Sima Youyue shook her head and said, "There's a very strong person on the other side. The scarlet bees didn't dare to get close. They could only hear some things faintly."
"What did you hear faintly?"
"They mentioned you and senior." Sima Youyue said, "I don't know what it is exactly."
"I didn't think that there would be such an expert hidden in the academy. I wonder if the academy knows about this." Wang Si Miao said with a solemn face.
"No matter if they know or not, we have to remind Instructor Mao and the others." Sima Youyue said, "These people are hiding in the academy. They must have some secret that they can't let others know. To us, this is a huge hidden danger. "
She looked at Little Seven. The other party must be coming for Little Seven. She had to tell the academy. If Little Seven got into trouble, it would be too late for regrets.
