Ji Yuan was secretly looking at Hua Yunzi when a bulky man began to say loudly, "We have only an hour. Why don't we introduce ourselves first and select a leader from among us? I am Hu Butao. What about the rest?"
The reason why Ji Yuan was looking at Hua Yunzi was because he had a guilty feeling toward her when she had suddenly left in the middle of the trial when they were at the Demonic Divine Realm; he still remembered that night when she had left, he had a drunken wet dream about her which was quite vivid and he was wondering if it may be real.
He had always wanted to ask her about what had happened that night if he was able to meet her again.
But he did not have the courage to confront her especially when she was deliberately looking away…
He still remembered how she had come to his aid when they were outside this SS portal when he was being confronted by Xi Huangdi and she had even given him a warning that there were a few cultivators that were from the Evil Cultivation Palace here that were after his life.
Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were all walking to the center where Hu Butao was and so did the others.
"Hua Yunzi…"
"Shui Xisi…"
"Ji Yuan…"
The other 6 champions consisted of 5 males and 1 female. None of them were from Snowy Pavilion City or from Shui Xisi's city state either.
Ji Yuan saw that they all had a black ring on their fingers, so they were actually all celestials like him.
2 of the 5 males looked old and also like veteran cultivators.
They were Huo Mingdi and Tian Ao.
The other 3 males were Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Zhang Feihong.
As for the other female champion, she was Xie Hongyu.
Everyone quickly introduced themselves since they all know the drill by now.
The faster that they could introduce themselves, the quicker that they could nominate a leader and decide on their group strategy.
After everyone had introduced themselves, Hu Butao smiled. "I think we should nominate a group leader now. Why don't we nominate Ji Yuan to be our group leader? He is after all…"
Then he smiled at the bandaged Ji Yuan before he lit a smirk, "He is well renowned as the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan."
Ji Yuan laughed, "This won't do. We have two older cultivators here. They should be the leaders instead. It is more respectful."
He had turned to look at Huo Mingdi and Tian Ao.
Huo Mingdi smiled as he stroked his white beard, "We are all celestials here. Naturally, we should choose the one with the highest cultivation realm to be the leader here."
Tiao Ao laughed coarsely in his old voice, "That's right. This is the fairest. Hahaha…"
Ji Yuan took a look at Shui Xisi as though he was trying to say: These old wily celestials are so good in playing mind games....
Huo Mingdi turned to look at Ji Yuan and said, "I believe that Brother Ji Yuan here is a great saint, right? I have heard you announcing yourself at the trial portal outside."
Ji Yuan chuckled, "That may be the case but I believe that there are other great saints beside me, right? Moreover, I am a half-dead cultivator now. How can I take the position of the demanding leadership?"
Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi are both great saintess as well.
Moreover, Shui Xisi is also a peaked great saintess.
But Ji Yuan did not believe that Shui Xisi is the only peaked great saintess as these two old cultivators looked extremely formidable.
But he saw that Hua Yunzi looked extremely quiet and she did not even dare to look in the eyes of this Huo Mingdi.
So, he got a quick conclusion in his mind; Is this Huo Mingdi actually from the Evil Cultivation Palace?
On all appearances, he looked too friendly and was even eager to appoint Ji Yuan as the group leader.
But Hua Yunzi was not looking in her norm and this had raised Ji Yuan's suspicions.
Other than this, he could not think of any other answer!
Huo Mingdi smiled to Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan is too humble…"
Then he had turned to the others to ask, "Well, do you all agree with me?"
And everyone was nodding, including Shui Xisi with a wry smile.
Only Hua Yunzi was quiet.
So, he asked Huo Mingdi with a grin to confront him directly in the face, "I wonder why Huo Mingdi is so insistent on choosing me as a leader? There must be some other reasons, am I right?"
Huo Mingdi laughed coarsely, "Indeed. It seems that I can't hide it from Great Saint Ji Yuan here."
Ji Yuan frowned: I know it!
Huo Mingdi smiled to explain, "With Great Saint Ji Yuan to lead us, we may score a few Trust Points from our divine consorts as this shows that we respect their Great Spiritas Hero. As you know, the closer our Trust Points are to 100, the better is our reward."
When he had said that, many of the champions broke into smiles and grins as they shared the same agreement.
Ji Yuan was frowning again; it is because he did not know about this reason since he is standing on the other side of the coin.
Shui Xisi giggled, "May the Great Saint Ji Yuan leads us for this trial!"
Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at her: Sisi, whose side are you on?
He knows that Sisi did not care for the trial rewards and there was no reason for her to nominate him as a leader.
Tiao Ao, the other elderly cultivator smiled, "Why don't we vote for the leader in our mind? This is the fairest."
When he said that, many of the champions were exclaiming this was such a good idea.
And Ji Yuan thought that this was a good idea too.
Or so, he had thought.
It was because...
Ji Yuan got 9 votes from the other 9 champions, including from Hua Yunzi.
What the heck?!
This is a rigged vote.
Ji Yuan had to suck his thumb and said bitterly, "Alright then. I shall be our team temporary leader."
Now he had to be responsible for all the bad and good decisions of the team.
He did not mind getting praises from making the good decisions but he would also have to shoulder the blame for making the bad decisions at the same time.
As soon as he got nominated as the leader, Hu Butao was smiling to him. "So, what is our strategy for the team, Great Saint Ji Yuan?"
Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes for a while to ponder before he grinned, "We should all stick together as a group…"
When he said that, all the others were nodding or agreeing with him.
Hu Butao even praised him, "What a brilliant leader."
Beitang Hai was even adding, "This is a good plan!"
"There is no better plan than this!" Zhang Feihong raised his thumbs at Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan was a little speechless by their flattering.
It was because this was a common strategy and there was nothing special about this.
He was sighing to himself: Good bye to my strategy of running alone to the end point now…
But he quickly composed himself to grin again as he pointed at Hua Yunzi, "Maiden Yunzi, please stay by my side to protect me since I am injured. I will need another protector as well…"
Shui Xisi giggled, "I can volunteer myself!"
Ji Yuan grinned at her before he pointed to Xie Hongyu behind her, "Maiden Hongyu, may you be my other protector."
Shui Xisi: …
Then he said to Shui Xisi, "This beautiful Maiden Xisi here, you look tougher than Maiden Yunzi and Maiden Hongyu. May you walk behind me to support our rear."
Shui Xisi: …
Ji Yuan, I am going to castrate you!
Ji Yuan said to the rest of the 6 other cultivators with a big grin, "Haha… since this leader is injured and my injuries are not light, I will like the rest of you to support in front of me and the three maidens at the back. What do you say?"
Huo Mingdi slowly looked at Ji Yuan before he looked at Tian Ao, Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Hu Butao, and Zhang Feihong.
These 6 champions were all looking at one another slowly too; it was because Ji Yuan's plan literally put them as cannon fodders at the front line first.
And Ji Yuan kept emphasizing that he was 'injured'.
But the darndest thing about this Ji Yuan was that he had placed the two most beautiful maidens Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi at the back, causing them unable to admire the beautiful views that were brought upon by their liberate spiritas clothing.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm Now Xie Hongyu was also a really beautiful maiden as well but when she stood next to Hua Yunzi or Shui Xisi, she paled in comparison.
Hua Yunzi was so coyly looking and fascinating appealing that the 6 men all had thoughts about banging and depraving her.
As for Shui Xisi, she was like a peerless goddess and they were already defiling her with their looks on her body and imaging her without any clothes in front of them, right from the beginning.
And this Ji Yuan had just put all the maidens behind them.
However, none of them could actually speak their thoughts and they could only bitterly agree with this 'brilliant' plan that was put forth by Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan laughed as this means that only he could admire Shui Xisi's butts and not the others.
But why did he put her at the back instead?
It is naturally to cover his back because Shui Xisi is really a strong cultivator and Ji Yuan could trust her completely on this.
Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, why did you put Maiden Sisi to your back? You can't admire her like this. Other than the reasons that you have mentioned? Do you know that you can't talk to Maiden Sisi because of this?"
Ji Yuan did not expect for Xiang Li to ask him this question so he answered with a straight face, "Do I need to talk with Sisi when I know everything about her already? With Sisi around, I can't talk to the other maidens. Haha…"
Xiang Li, Anyang: …
Fairy Anyang warned him: Be careful of crashing your two balls too early.
Ji Yuan laughed jovially: Don't worry, my two balls are like a formidable twin tower that is impervious to all crashes. Not even a 9th rank flying dragon can rock my formidable twin tower. Haha…
He did not know that at this moment, Shui Xisi is already thinking on how she is going to castrate him with her divine sword.
