NOVEL NEXT Chapter 335 Supreme Master
Ye Chen quickly sensed the location of the Pill Master, and only after feeling the Pill Master still in the mountain did he relax.
"Brother Hong Ye, where are we right now?" Bai Ye asked.
Hong Ye looked around and said, "We're still on the mountain. Now we head back down to the foot, where Master and the others are waiting."
The group headed down the mountain.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, many people had already returned and were calculating the resources they had gathered.
Hao Sheng stood in place, eyes fixed ahead, a hint of worry in his gaze.
Upon seeing Ye Chen and the six others approaching, his expression softened instantly, and he smiled.
"Master!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
The six quickly walked up.
Hao Sheng laughed heartily, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Seeing all six of you safely return puts my heart at ease!"
The War Wolf Army's Supreme Leader, War Wolf, paced back and forth anxiously, seeing no sign of Celestial Wolf's group.
The Supreme Army's Supreme Leader was equally anxious.
An hour later, those who could return had returned, while those who hadn't likely wouldn't.
The Supreme and War Wolf Armies were entirely wiped out, and some other squads were missing one or two members.
Some teams exchanged glances full of anger, implying they had inevitably fought amongst themselves.
Hao Sheng glanced and chuckled, "How come not a single one from the Supreme and War Wolf Armies returned? Encountered powerful monsters and got wiped out?"
Hong Ye and the six exchanged a glance but tacitly remained silent.
Just then, a figure descended rapidly amidst white light.
Hao Sheng hurriedly went up to greet them.
The many Supreme Leaders also quickly went up to welcome them.
The newcomer was about 1.9 meters tall, clad in white armor, appeared to be around thirty-five, and had a resolute face.
Hao Sheng and the other leaders respectfully saluted, "Supreme One!"
Hong Ye and the others also bowed to show their respect.
"Who might this be?"
Hong Ye replied, "This is the Law Enforcement Alliance Province's Supreme Leader, the Supreme One, an LV55 Pet Tamer! Their pet is a Creation Tier, extremely rare Light Element pet!"
Ye Chen was also taken aback internally; Light, Dark, and Thunder were known as the three extremely rare attributes, with Light being the rarest!
He didn't expect this Supreme One to be as high as LV55!
The Supreme One waved their hand and said, "Alright, everyone rise, we're outside, not within the Law Enforcement Alliance, no need for such formalities."
Ye Chen and the six stood behind Hao Sheng, saying nothing.
"Supreme One, have you finished your work?" someone asked.
The Supreme One nodded, saying, "All done, just a minor issue."
The Supreme One exuded an aura of supreme power, a feeling that left Hong Ye and the others breathless.
Ye Chen was also somewhat uneasy; he understood he was definitely not a match for this Supreme One.
The Supreme One glanced at War Wolf and Supreme, frowning, and asked, "Where are your disciples?"
"They didn't make it out, maybe ran into danger!" War Wolf replied weakly, clearly pained inside.
If he found out it was Ye Chen and his group who endangered his disciples, he might seek endless revenge later!
"Alas, condolences, this Secret Realm holds dangers even I can't withstand, they just had bad luck!" the Supreme One sighed.
War Wolf and Supreme remained silent.
"Alright, bring out your spoils and let's see which team scored the most!" the Supreme One instructed.
Hao Sheng immediately turned around and asked Hong Ye, "How was it? How are the gains this time?"
Hong Ye replied, "Should be no problem, we'll go last."
Hao Sheng felt more assured hearing this, nodding.
Celestial Might Army's Supreme Leader, Celestial Might, was the first to step up and have his disciples present their spoils.
"Yellow Tier Spirit Grass Low Level fifteen stalks, Intermediate ten stalks, Advanced five stalks, totaling forty points!"
"Profound Tier Spirit Grass Low Level three stalks, totaling thirty points!"
"Yellow Tier materials, Low Level twenty, Intermediate twelve, Advanced four, totaling 46 points!"
"Profound Tier Low Level five, totaling fifty points!"
"Five Stars Epic Level blueprints two, totaling 100 points!"
"Others combined, totaling sixty points!"
"Celestial Might Army, totaling 326 points!"
The Supreme One announced.
Celestial Might's face broke into a smile, evidently quite satisfied.
Hao Sheng worriedly asked, "Can we best Celestial Might Army?"
Bai Ye grinned, "Should be close, might be a bit higher! Could be a few points more!"
Seeing Bai Ye's mischievous grin, Hao Sheng felt more assured.
"Earth Spirit Army, totaling 305 points!"
Earth Spirit looked displeased!
"Holy Sea Army, totaling 330 points!"
"Oh yeah!"
The Holy Sea Army's seven members immediately cheered excitedly, jumping up!
Hao Sheng turned again to Bai Ye, "How about now?"
Bai Ye, still smiling, replied, "A bit higher, should be a few points more!"
"Still a few points more?" Hao Sheng exclaimed, eyes wide.
"Yeah, a few points more, a few points more!"
Hao Sheng was momentarily speechless.
"Heaven-Piercing Army, totaling 314 points!"
The Supreme One's voice rang out again!
"Wild Arid Army, totaling 360 points!"
"Yay yay yay! That's awesome, awesome!"
Wild Arid cheered excitedly.
Hao Sheng turned once more, asking, "And now?"
"Heh heh, should still be a few points more!"
"Damn! Are you messing with your old man?" Hao Sheng dropped his usual calm demeanor and cursed!
Bai Ye didn't reply, just grinned.
Meanwhile, he handed a few items to Hong Ye.
Ye Chen immediately understood. Wow, they're controlling the score!
The scoring system was already known, and Hong Ye was manipulating the points.
If they revealed everything they had obtained, it might be too shocking.
As the last to go, they only needed a bit more than first place.
Finally, it was the Holy Guard Army's turn.
The current highest score was still 360 points.
Wild Arid watched Hong Ye nervously, silently praying, "Please don't surpass me, please don't surpass me! Just don't!"
After a round of calculations, the Supreme One smiled and said, "Holy Guard Army, 365 points!"
"Good heavens! That's a good score!"
Hao Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief, smiling with satisfaction.
"Holy crap, the winner is actually the Holy Guard Army!"
"When did the Holy Guard Army become so formidable!"
"Yeah, taking along an LV30 deadweight and still winning, what a stroke of luck! Damn it all!"
Their strength was mid-to-low tier among the teams, yet winning was indeed unexpected.
The Supreme One began, "The winning team this time is..."
Before the Supreme One could finish, Wild Arid interrupted, "Wait! Wait! Hold on Supreme One, we forgot to bring out one item!"
Saying this, Wild Arid took a weapon from someone's hand and scolded them, "Brain-dead, always forgetting things, what the heck is this!"
