The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

"No problem, we are willing to take on this internship task."

Frost seriously agreed.

Now that they were aware, they had to be humble, devoid of any genius's arrogance, only solemn and resolutely determined!

"Okay."

A voice came from Su Qi's side, "It's a simple task."

"About a minute from now, there will be around thirty people arriving within your line of sight, and all you need to do is one thing—unleash all your Strength and try to block them as much as possible."

Su Qi's voice calmly conveyed, "Block them for as long as you can."

The next moment, Su Qi seemed to go offline again.

"All our Strength? Try to block? Thirty people?" A young member of the Meteor Alliance paused, "Aren't they underestimating us a bit too much?"

"And… treating us like tools right from the start…" Another person slightly shook their head.

Bai Yilin spoke, "Trust Brother Su, he must have his reasons for doing this."

Frost also nodded, "Let's just do it, since it's already decided, and it seems that the Hierarch of The Hustlers Sect is also nearby, we should get to see what kind of person he really is."

"Wait, shouldn't we move a bit outward, given that this place is close to those two God's Sons…" someone remarked, frowning.

If a battle erupted and angered these two frightening beings...

Not just them, but even The Hustlers Sect… this late-arriving Hierarch might face the wrath and hostility of the two God's Sons!

That would truly be the end.

After all,

The Hustlers Sect… even though Bai Yilin frequently praised it, they weren't fools; anyone with clear eyes could see that The Hustlers Sect was just a fledgling group, starting from nothing, which was also why they were willing to join, to share in the initial stakes, striving together, starting from scratch!

But if they angered the God's Sons… their first day joining might also become the day they were forced to disband, scattering to pieces.

"There's no time left."

A minute didn't last as long as one might think, Bai Yilin looked up and noticed some movements there.

In a few more seconds,

they saw three individuals, rapidly flying through the sky!

Bai Yilin immediately recognized Su Qi in the middle!

"Brother Su!"

Then he saw Nancy, "Senior Nancy is also here!!"

And another person beside them, though not known, must be strong, bursting forth with tangible Spiritual Energy, another formidable character, seemingly a new ally of Brother Su.

A joy of reunion flashed across Bai Yilin's face.

The Hierarch of the Hustlers Sect… damn, finally back online!!

But this joy did not last long...

Because,

the next moment,

they saw tiny specks the size of ants in the distance, about a kilometer away.

Approximately thirty people.

"Are those the thirty people mentioned?" You asked with some surprise,

"So they are being chased… asking us to cover their retreat?"

Some showed slight displeasure, considering they had just decided to join and were immediately being used as pawns.

Yet Frost, You, and Bai Yilin had already drawn their weapons,

"No matter what, whether being used as tools or proving our loyalty, let's do it first."

"Also, Brother Bai, quickly tell that Hierarch…" You softly said, "to not go any further forward."

"Ahead lies the territory of God's Sons and many powers' meeting point."

The rage there was not something they or The Hustlers Sect could endure.

Bai Yilin nodded seriously, "Rest assured, everyone. I believe Brother Su must have his reasons for doing this."

"He won't let us…"

He was about to say, he won't let us end up in deep trouble.

But he suddenly choked back his words, remembering the numerous dangerous situations that always involved Brother Su.

"Start now!"

Although those thirty people hadn't yet arrived, their speed was extremely fast, not ordinary by any measure.

"Let's not use full force." Frost spoke softly, "We just need to block them, not strike them down too severely."

It wasn't out of arrogance; although they were in a sorry state, their strength was still considerable. Each had their own trump cards, and their numbers were about a hundred.

Thirty people...

They shook their heads, wondering how they could possibly need a hundred people just to block.

"Boom!"

Their myriad Strength burst forth concurrently, heading toward the area behind Su Qi!

The thirty Divine Sons watched coldly, "They have comrades?"

"With such Strength... are they underestimating us??"

"Weak ants! Begone!"

The next moment!

All the Strength that had just intercepted them disintegrated in an instant as only a few Divine Sons made their move!!

"????"

Frost and the others were taken aback!

Wait, although they hadn't used their full strength, nor had everyone acted together, it was just three or four people on the other side who had easily disintegrated their interception. Wasn't that a bit... odd!

"Wait, everyone attack!!"

Frost did not hesitate for a moment.

These thirty individuals seemed no ordinary; they were true powerhouses!

Since that was the case, they naturally had to show their real strength. All one hundred people made their move, and this astounding wave of energy created a powerful fluctuation.

It made the entire air vibrate crazily, and also drew the attention of others around them. Many furrowed their brows slightly.

However.

This interception merely made the expressions of the Divine Sons even colder.

"Annoying insects!!"

Their Strength was even greater. With a simple gesture, they continued to tear through everything that was thrown at them!!

At this point.

Frost seemed to finally realize something was wrong.

Wasn't the opposition too strong!? They were nothing like what they had imagined!

And at this moment.

Su Qi had already appeared in front of them with a smile.

"Gentlemen, you can't kill anyone like that."

"The internship tasks of The Hustlers Sect aren't that simple..."

"If you don't use your full strength, you might not even be prepared."

"This... you are being hunted," Frost took a deep breath.

"Hunted?" Su Qi smiled, "This is a trial."

He didn't move forward but looked at the gazes cast upon him and smiled slightly:

"Don't you want a stage?"

"I will give each of you a real grand stage, bigger than you can imagine! And this is the first step onto that grand stage."

Su Qi's words made each of them furrow their brows tightly.

A stage?

A real grand stage?

What does that have to do with these thirty people?

And the next moment.

You suddenly looked up, "Something's off."

"How?"

"These thirty people... their identities seem off..."

Everyone looked up as the thirty or so people drew nearer, and they too sensed something off about them...

"That aura on them..."

"Why does it resemble Divinity so much?"

"The word 'resemble' doesn't seem quite accurate."

Frost widened his eyes, "They're Divine Sons! They're all Divine Sons!!"

"Did we just attack the Divine Sons?!"

"Brother Su, what exactly is going on??" Bai Yilin couldn't help but shout!

Su Qi did not respond but said softly.

"If you want to become members of The Hustlers Sect, you must have the courage to contend with... powerful enemies. I highly doubt... you have that courage."

"And also, can you stop them?"

Someone was about to say something when You suddenly held out a hand to stop him, just calmly looking at Su Qi, watching his smile.

Then...

He slowly turned towards the group of Divine Sons.

"Kill!"

The word fell!

Frost, with a solemn expression, exclaimed, "Everyone, go all out!"

"Divine Sons, right!"

"We'll show you our interception!"

In that instant, everyone's momentum didn't weaken but instead burst forth with various truly powerful strengths!

Boom!

Terrifying fluctuations surged towards the thirty Divine Sons!
