Cultivation Pet Shop

But then she knitted her brows as she also muttered, "It seems like Shi Yan really was doing something under our noses…I'll have to tell the others to look out for him."

This old woman was actually in disguise, but it was a disguise to only those that weren't hunters. All the hunters recognized this disguise since this was the form that she normally took when she was in the Hunters Organization.

As for what she really looked like, that was a mystery to most of the people in the Hunters Organization.

Her true identity was a terrifying one, she was one of the only few Three Star Hunters and the current president of the Hunters Organization, Hai Yin.

She raised her wrist to her mouth and said a few things to an unknown person before heading back into the main area of the airship.

In that main area, the various examiners that passed were all standing and waiting around in groups. Most people were in smaller groups of two or three or standing alone, while there were also four larger groups that also formed.

Surprisingly Wang Jian was one of those people who were alone.

Back in the ruins, when Wang Jian had been pulled into the fountain, leaving those other Myriad Sword Hall juniors alone in that city, they had been targeted by everyone and wiped out in the end.

While Wang Jian had travelled alone previously, just him being in the realm was enough pressure on the others that no one dared to move against those from the Myriad Sword Hall.

However, when he had fallen into the fountain, everyone had assumed that he was dead, which had relieved the pressure that he had placed on them by just being there.

There were those that immediately had the idea of taking care of those Myriad Sword Hall juniors since there was no one protecting them and they were in these ruins where no one would know who killed them. Even if they turned in the artifact to pass this exam with, they could just say that they had found it or taken it from the actual killer and no one would be able to say a thing since this was just what was commonly accepted.

But that changed when Wang Jian had come back alive…

Not a single person had dared to turn in the Fragmented Soul Realm Artifacts that they had gotten from the Myriad Sword Hall juniors and it was all out of fear of Wang Jian.

He was a famed maniac, someone who did whatever he wanted in pursuit of his own strength, so there was no one that would stop him if he wanted revenge since this was a matter between the younger generation.

The other one thing he was well known for was how protective he was of his people, even if he didn't seem to show it, but they were certain that he would take revenge for the ones that they killed if he found out.

That was why there were some people who tried to approach Lin Fan, trying to pull them to their side.

They had seen the fight between Lin Fan and Wang Jian, so they knew that Lin Fan was stronger than Wang Jian.

For someone this young to be this powerful, there had to be some kind of backing behind him, one that wasn't even weaker than Wang Jian's, which was most likely why he wasn't afraid to fight Wang Jian.

Since that was the case, it would be in their best interest to befriend Lin Fan since he would be the only thing that could keep Wang Jian off their backs.

Many of these people came over to try and talk up Lin Fan, but all that they were met with was an ice cold wall. Still, there were some that persisted even in the face of this ice cold wall, it was just too bad that none of them had succeeded.

Finally they could only give up, but many of them still stayed close to where Lin Fan was since they could see the look that Wang Jian looked at Lin Fan with.

It was a look that had a trace of fear, one that they recognized because it was the way that they looked at Wang Jian.

This all happened while they were waiting in the main hall of this airship, but that all came to an end when the old woman came into the main hall.

She looked over the hall and her eyes stopped on a few of them before she suddenly gave a clap and said with a faint smile, "Why are you all so nervous? You've passed the second round and you're on your way to the third round, so you should be happy."

But when she said this, no one had let down their guard,

The only reason they had followed her was because Shi Yan had been respectful to this old woman, but that didn't mean that they would let down their guard so easily. As far as they were concerned, it was likely that this was already the third exam and this old woman was already watching how they would react to grade them.

The old woman didn't mind that they were all on guard, rather she just gave a shrug and said, "It's fine if you don't believe me, but we'll be reaching the third stage in another two hours, so you have time to relax before we arrive."

p Once again, no one let their guard down, but there was someone who raised their hand and asked, "What's waiting for us at the third exam?"

The old woman revealed a faint smile and just shook her head as she said, "That's for you to find out, isn't it?"

That person put their hand down and didn't keep pushing it.

Everyone had seen the people who had been smashed into the ground by some kind of pressure and they could feel a strange aura coming from this old woman. Based on how she talked, it was clear that she didn't have a good temper, so if they pushed it, who knew what would happen.

There was nothing to gain from annoying this old woman, so they immediately stopped asking.

However, it was at this time that Lin Fan suddenly said, "But that isn't a no, is it?"

The old woman turned in Lin Fan's direction and gave a nod with a faint smile before saying, "Then how about we play a game?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this since they had all assumed that this old woman wouldn't tell them anything, but now it seemed like the situation was changing?

The old woman raised her hand and with a flick of that hand, there was a ball that appeared in her hand. This was a simple looking red plastic ball that didn't have any special features. There wasn't even a special aura that came from this ball.

The old woman held this ball as she said, "There's ten of these balls that are hidden on this ship. The time limit will be when we land. If you're holding one of these balls when time is up, you'll win a special prize."

Then she turned back to Lin Fan and said, "Is that enough for you?"

Lin Fan knitted his brows before asking, "What are the rules then? It can't be that there are no rules, right?"

The old woman gave a nod before saying, "You're right, there are rules in all things, so how could there not be rules here? It's very simple, you're free to do what you want, but let's avoid taking things too far. You'll be considered out if you cause serious injuries to someone or kill someone, but you're free to hinder people however you want."

Then the old woman pointed at something on the ceiling and said, "There are cameras all over this place, hidden and not hidden. If you're caught breaking the rules, you'll be immediately disqualified."

Lin Fan calmly asked, "Then to confirm, this isn't the third round, right? Also, will we be disqualified from the exam or just the game?"

The old woman didn't reply this time, she just stood there with a smile on her face as if everything was obvious.

But it was obvious to those that had picked up on the clues.

First, based on how they were being transported by this old woman instead of the normal transport and based on how she said that there was trouble, it seemed like there was a problem with the third round, which was why she most likely came here to stall.

There were people who could tell that this wasn't the max speed of this airship since they knew what the max speed of this airship model was, so they could tell from the beginning that something was off.

Second, this old woman was now offering a game to keep them distracted, so it was clear that they didn't want to give people time to think and figure out that something was wrong.

However, that just told the people who were insightful that something was off.

Still, even if that was the case, there was no harm in joining this game because they would most likely give a good prize at the end of this game, one that would make up for the delay.

If anything, it would most likely be some kind of advantage in the third round…

Since that was the case, there were people who started getting excited for this game.
