Divine Seal: I am the Demon God Emperor's beloved granddaughter

Chapter 39 I could recognize you even if you turned to ashes!
"Only we can afford to raise that money-devouring beast."

Despite saying this, Bai Xi still flicked her sword tip and picked out the magic crystal of the Emerald Twin Blade Demon, tossing it to Haoyue, who was following Long Haochen, like a dried fish.

Haoyue didn't hold back at all, and ate the magic crystal directly, crunching it as if it were some kind of delicacy.

Although it couldn't speak, it was very intelligent and, after eating the magic crystal, it gave Bai Xi a pleasant look, as if it were thanking her.

"As long as you protect Chenchen well, you'll have plenty to eat."

As she spoke, Bai Xi turned to Li Xin and the others.

"I have some use for this corpse, so it's mine now?"

They all shook their heads, indicating that the body belonged to Bai Xi and they would not take it.

Li Xin went even further and spoke directly:
"Of course it's yours! Even if the rest of us encountered this guy, we couldn't handle him!"

After saying that, she swallowed hard and finally remembered the sentence she had ignored.

"I guess I could be considered a Sky Knight, right?"

Good heavens! A fourteen-year-old fifth-tier professional? Is she dreaming? How can someone cultivate so fast?!
It is said that Bai Xi started her formal cultivation a year later than Long Haochen.

At that moment, Li Xin finally understood why Bai Xi had advised others to participate five years later, while she herself had participated this year.

She was only fourteen years old, yet she was already a fifth-tier professional.

If we wait a few more years, five years from now, or ten years from now, all the participants will probably be so discouraged by her that they will completely lose their confidence in cultivation.

After defeating the Emerald Twin Blade Demon, they encountered no more formidable opponents and returned to their camp without incident.

However, the demon scout who was initially released by Bai Xi left behind her portrait, which slowly spread throughout the demon realm.

"Xixi, when will your Xiaoqing grow up?"

Back home, Li Xin couldn't hide her excitement and secretly asked Bai Xi about it.

She had seen Bai Xi's mount once; it was a juvenile "mutated four-winged green snake," still small and too small for her to ride.

The mutated four-winged green snake is a species created by Long Xingyu, and it also served as a shield for Xiao Qing before she grew up.

"I'm not sure either, Xiaoqing's growth period is quite long. But it's okay, I can wait, it can grow up slowly."

As Bai Xi spoke, she gently tapped the blue bracelet on her wrist with her finger.

If you look closely, you'll see that it's not a blue bracelet at all, but a blue snake-like creature coiled around Bai Xi's wrist, just like a blue bracelet.

"Oh? Haoyue likes to eat magic crystals. Should we feed Xiaoqing some too? Will that help it grow faster?"

Li Xin was a little anxious; she really wanted to see Bai Xi become a true Sky Knight and ride a flying mount.

That would be amazing; just thinking about it made her excited.

"Xiaoqing doesn't like to eat magic crystals, but I'm trying other things."

Bai Xi told the truth.

In fact, the only way she knows of to make Xiaoqing grow up quickly or instantly gain great strength is to consume her blood.

In the past, the azure dragon egg was able to hatch only after absorbing her blood.

However, Xiaoqing is a very sensible dragon baby and refuses to let Baixi feed her blood.

"Alright then, you should give it a try."

Just then, the inspector in charge of their operation arrived.

The six gathered in a tent, listening to the inspector's instructions and explanation of the competition. "The preliminary rounds will ultimately select ten of the strongest individuals from each of the six great temples to participate in the finals."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xi really wanted to ask:
"Can we switch to another temple midway through the competition?"

It was Long Xingyu who asked them to participate; she didn't know anything about the competition beforehand. She didn't know that each temple had ten qualifying spots, and thought it would be a team battle or a group selection of the strongest from the six temples!

"The sixty people who will participate in the final will be drawn into the competition, so luck will be very important in the final."

"The top three finalists can also choose a teammate who is not among the top three before the Demon Hunter Roulette matchmaking event."

That's the general outline of the competition rules.

In other words, Bai Xilong, Hao Chen, and Li Xin are all very likely to face off in the preliminary and final rounds.

Upon hearing that merit points and completing Demon Hunter missions could be exchanged for all of the Alliance's reserves, including various powerful equipment and secret techniques.

Bai Xi finally understood where the various secret techniques covering all professions that Long Xingyu sent to them every now and then came from.

"He's given me a lot of things over the years. I don't want to drain his merit points, that would be bad."

If Long Xingyu knew what Bai Xi was thinking, he probably wouldn't be able to resist giving her a good whack on the head.

How can you look down on him like that? Do you think his merit points can be depleted so easily?

Aimei City Holy Alliance Auction House.

"Xixi, what place is this? What do you want to buy here? I'll buy it for you."

Long Haochen, who was pulled out by Bai Xi, showed no reluctance whatsoever.

I just feel that a balance between work and rest is the most important thing.

Completely forgetting that he had just refused Li Xin and Lin Jialu's invitation, Li Xin and Lin Jialu, who were following behind them, both rolled their eyes at him.

"Let's take a look first, and balance work and rest. We can also try our luck and see if we can find anything good."

Bai Xi simply wanted to try her luck and find some bargains.

However, she regretted it soon after entering the auction house.

"Feng Aotian! You've finally reappeared!"

A very cheerful voice came from behind Bai Xi to her ears.

The sound was a bit loud and attracted a lot of attention. Bai Xi just felt a little embarrassed and immediately pretended not to hear it, pulling Long Haochen to continue walking forward.

However, the person behind her seemed to have decided on her.

It ran happily towards her, making such a loud noise that Bai Xi's toes started digging into the ground.

"Feng Aotian! I recognized you, but you still pretended not to know me! This really hurts my heart! How could you ignore such a handsome man like me? You are so heartless!"

The man was incredibly fast, instantly appearing in front of Bai Xi and her group of four. He spread his arms wide to block them, striking what he thought was a very cool pose.

"Sir, are you sure you haven't stopped the wrong person?"

Long Haochen shielded Bai Xi behind him, looking at the handsome green-haired man in front of him with some wariness.

But the man only glanced at him before making an exaggerated, mournful face and shouting at Bai Xi.

"How could you stop the wrong person? Feng Aotian, Tiantian, I would recognize you even if you were ashes!"
