Chapter 272: Hunting Godzilla, Australian Continent Trial (Combined Part 2)
"You..."
Quan Zuo pointed angrily at Qin Shou, "You... you better know your limits! Leave some room for maneuvering in life!"
Qin Shou looked serious and pondered for a moment, "Hmm, leave some room for maneuvering in life, so we can meet again later. That does make sense."
Quan Zuo was thrilled. Did this brat finally see reason?
"Boom..."
Suddenly, the ground trembled again, and a high-temperature air shield swept over the fallen colossal Green Demon, melting half of its massive body.
Quan Zuo's face was filled with anguish, but before he could question Qin Shou, he saw Qin Shou grin at him.
"Mr. Quan, my apologies. If you don't wish to see me again, I can grant your wish right now."
In an instant, a chill crept up Quan Zuo's spine, and cold sweat started pouring from his forehead.
Did that sentence mean...?
Has this brat ever even read a book?
Could it be that he intends to...
"Roar!!"
Godzilla's ferocious roar interrupted Quan Zuo's thoughts. Looking toward the high-temperature-covered land, he saw Godzilla lift a leg as colossal as a Sky Tower and stomped down, completely pulverizing the half-melted Green Demon.
"No!!"
Quan Zuo screamed in agony as he witnessed the scene, his heart breaking.
The resources required for nurturing a Nightmare Six-star beast were beyond imagination for ordinary people.
Not everyone had cheat codes.
"Buzz..."
On the hellish land, Godzilla's imposing monstrous form stood tall, radiating grandeur as the energy within its body rapidly depleted. The crimson hue on its surface gradually faded.
Qin Shou glanced sideways at Quan Zuo, who was glaring at him with hatred-filled eyes, and raised a thumb, drawing it across his neck in a cutting motion.
Provocation. Utter provocation!
"This is just a minor punishment," Qin Shou sneered, "if you dare speak ill of our beloved principal again, next time I will absolutely kill you!"
Quan Zuo clenched his fists tightly, his face twisting in rage, suppressing the urge to strike.
At that moment, a figure flickered into view—Quan Zhqing rushed over and firmly pressed down on Quan Zuo's shoulder.
"Quan Zuo, hurry up and thank Qin Shou for his generosity in not holding this against you." Quan Zhqing hinted with his gaze.
"I..."
"Hmm?"
Quan Zhqing widened his eyes, and Quan Zuo could only swallow his anger and lower his head reluctantly.
"Thank... thank you, Qin Shou." Quan Zuo gritted his teeth.
Qin Shou scoffed dismissively and ignored the two of them.
Retrieving Godzilla, Qin Shou waved to summon the others.
"The Mechanical Monsters from Dragon Island have all been sent to the Beast Cultivation Main City. This matter is already settled. If anyone is unhappy, they can file an appeal."
Calmly saying this, Qin Shou ignored everyone's reactions, raised his communicator, and tapped on the virtual interface.
Pointing at the virtual map of Dragon Island displayed on the interface, he said, "Next, let's discuss the development rights for Dragon Island."
"Development rights?"
Everyone was stunned.
Qin Shou nodded, "That's right. After going through this disaster, Dragon Island has been transformed into a mechanical island. It's no longer suitable for students to use it as a trial ground."
"So I... ahem, so the principal has decided that Dragon Island will no longer serve as a trial ground in the future!"
Upon hearing this, everyone appeared deep in thought.
Leng Xinlan spoke up, "Little Shou, if trial grounds are no longer conducted on Dragon Island, where will the younger generations go for their trials in the future?
And how does the development rights you're talking about differ from the previous arrangement?"
These were questions everyone else wanted to ask as well.
Qin Shou slid his finger, pulling up the map of the Australian Continent shrouded in dark clouds.
"The future trial grounds will be here!"
Everyone was shocked.
"Australian Continent? It's full of Cosmic Monster King Ghidorah. If the younger generations enter there, the casualty rate would be as high as 99%. No, absolutely not!"
"That's right. Even if we entered the Australian Continent ourselves, we wouldn't necessarily come out unscathed, let alone them..."
"This is sending them to their deaths. My Liao Zhai Group absolutely disagrees..."
"My Ma Family also disagrees..."
"The Search God Group also disagrees..."
"We at the Mountain and Sea Group also disagree..."
Let alone others, even representatives from the Long Family, Leng Xinlan and Yan Bo, would never agree to this.
Qin Shou raised his hand, quieting everyone down.
"Relax, I obviously won't send students to their deaths. Do I seem like someone so ruthless, so cruel, so unreasonable?" He gazed at them sincerely.
In their hearts, everyone nodded, don't you?
Qin Shou shook his head and continued to explain, "Of course I know how dangerous it is there..."
Before he could finish, Quan Zuo interrupted him with a cold snort, "At least you know."
Qin Shou turned to look at Quan Zuo and Quan Zhqing, surprised, "What are you doing here? What we're discussing has nothing to do with you."
"You..."
Quan Zuo was about to erupt, but Quan Zhqing immediately held him back, putting on a warm smile.
"Haha, Qin Shou, what do you mean? We're all on the same side. Wouldn't you agree?"
Qin Shou touched his chin and looked up at the sky, "Whether we're on the same side depends on what Mr. Quan does."
Quan Zhqing lowered his head and noticed Qin Shou standing with one hand on his hip, while the fingers on his other hand subtly rubbed together—a gesture whose meaning was crystal clear.
Quan Zhqing's face darkened, thinking, this brat is openly demanding benefits. Does he think everyone else is stupid?
Looking up, everyone else was staring at the sky as if they'd all been rendered utterly stupid.
Fine, they really were stupid.
Quan Zhqing leaned closer and handed over a Space Wristwatch to Qin Shou.
"One million Earth Core Energy Crystals!" He whispered.
He hadn't forgotten the matter of Dragon Island's development rights.
Qin Shou continued to stare at the sky as if something fascinating had caught his eye.
Quan Zhqing gritted his teeth, "Two million Earth Core Energy Crystals."
"Wow, what lovely weather we're having!" Qin Shou whistled.
Quan Zhqing's face grew even darker.
"Five million Earth Core Energy Crystals..."
"Hey, look, there's a little sparrow over there." Qin Shou remarked.
Quan Zhqing was about to cough up blood.
"Qin Shou, five million Earth Core Energy Crystals, and I'll apply for an additional hundred Constant Star Energy Crystals from above!"
