319 Found It! (1/2)

Krune then used his Divine Sense so that he could talk with Ruik and the others in the distance.

”So, this is the situation at the moment. What should we do now?”

Dilo was the first to answer.

”We can simply follow the same plan as before. Let's go to the Mission Hall of this city and connect to their network. If there is any news about this Mohie Sect or Clan, it will definitely appear inside. Perhaps the other owners are also looking for it at the moment.”

Krune nodded, and they decided to follow Dilo's plan. But before that, there was one thing that they had to take care of first. The fact that they have been followed all the time. Krune couldn't bring Dilo out since it would just make those who want to fight him and Ruik to call their own Soul Forging Realm companions.

While Krune was pondering about this issue, a young man approached him.

”Hello there. Can I have a minute of your time?”

Krune and Ruik looked at him and nodded.

”You were one of those keeping Divine Sense on us, right?”

The young man nodded.

”Exactly. My name is Joiu Rak, a Divine Soul Realm cultivator. I'm also one of those who want to challenge you as well if the opportunity .”

Krune and Ruik were already expecting this much.

”I see. So it was really because they want to fight against us. But there is one thing I don't understand. It is evident that you all can feel each other's presence, so why don't you use a black token to challenge those guys?”

Joiu smiled and then explained.

”That's because we don't want to be the ones who are issuing the challenge. As you know, as long as you hold for five minutes, it will be your victory. After that, the other part has to do whatever you want them to do. We are all geniuses here, so no one wants to risk it.”

Krune nodded.

”I see, it is really disadvantageous to be the once issuing the challenge. So, why are you all focusing on my friend and me? Even if I didn't have the white token, I don't think anyone between you would challenge me anyway, right?”

Joiu confirmed Krune's assumptions.

”Exactly! What I'm here for is to offer you the chance to join our group. Of course, even though I say we are a group, the fact is that there is no such thing as a leader or that many activities that we do together. Our group usually has only one objective, to be able to challenge each other without the need to pay anything to the victor. You can simply see us as sparring partners that will issue challenges to each other now and then.”

Krune finally understood.

”I see, so you are basically a representative of everyone else.”

Joiu nodded.

Krune pondered a bit and then said.

”Very well, I accept.”

Joiu immediately showed a happy expression.

”Great! Bring out your communicators. I will pass you the other members contact so that we can keep in touch. Oh, you will be able to find a few pieces of information about each one of us inside too. Like which type of opponent we wish to test our abilities against and other things like that.”

Joiu then remembered one thing.

”Oh, right! No one holds back when we fight against each other, so there is a chance of dying. Please be careful if you decide to accept a challenge or challenge someone instead.”

Krune and Ruik nodded, and they passed their contact numbers over. Soon, the two of them received several friend requests from the other members. They were even invited into a chat group that those geniuses keep together.

”Well, this is it. If you decide to accept a challenge, you won't need to care about black or white tokens. The city has arenas with protection formations ready for anyone who wishes to fight. Of course, different from outside, there will be no judge, nor will there be anyone who will save you in case you are about to die, so keep that in mind.”

Krune and Ruik noticed that the majority of the Divine Senses disappeared right after they received the friend requests.

”Alright. There is another issue, if I'm not wrong, this group thing only works inside the cities, right? If I leave the city, everything goes back to the Law of the Jungle, correct?”

Joiu nodded.

”It's good that you understand this part.”

Joiu then turned around and started to walk away.

”Anyway, that's all I had to do, so take a look and see if you want to accept someone's challenge or if you want to challenge someone yourself.”

Joiu soon disappeared in the distance.
