Next day early in the morning, everyone woke up early for the training session. At first, they felt a little bit unmotivated since the monster stampede was still at least a week away.
However, when their communication jade slip sent them a direct message from the academy itself, that they will have to depart in the afternoon today as the monster stampede will arrive tomorrow, all of them let out a surprised reaction and their faces turned grim.
This timing is too soon!
Thus, as their anxiousness built up under that pressure, it gave them a high dose of adrenaline that fired up their motivation to train properly in these last few hours before they were required to depart simultaneously!
Positioning themselves into the formation that was agreed on yesterday, each began to line up with their roles as vanguards and rear-guards respectively.
Shen Lu made some small adjustments to the overall distances between each member that was suitable with their roles, and everyone was starting to get the hang of it.
Suddenly however, an unfamiliar voice spoke out.
”This group formation you guys are using is not too bad, but there are several fatal flaws in it!”
Hearing this comment, everyone turned their head into the direction of that voice to found out that a lady whom they've never met before, seemingly in her forties and shorter than an average woman's height, was looking at them while shaking her head, standing at the balcony on the first floor.
It was Meng Yue.
”Who are you? How did you get in?” Wang Xiolun put up his guard as he said this.
From his senses, he couldn't detect the spiritual Qi of the other party to determine her strength at all, and this could only happen because of one reason; that she purposely reigned in her aura so skillfully such that not a single trace of it could be felt, and what this practically meant was that - this short lady was stronger than them by a huge gap!
One has to know that, although a Core formation realm cultivator did not have the exclusive ability of Soul Sense that a Nascent Soul realm cultivator has just yet, their senses were still extremely sharp and could usually detect what realm a person was currently in!
Therefore, he felt extremely wary that an unknown person with such means to suddenly appear before them and quickly took position to cover Duan Li from the front with the rest following suit behind him.
However, Wang Xiolun couldn't help but to have a strange gut feeling that, he somehow knew who this lady actually was.
Why does she seems so familiar?
Where have I seen her before..?
”Ohh? You're not too bad.” Meng Yue said after she witnessed Wang Xiolun's loyal action and nodded in satisfaction.
The fact that this man was the first to take action to protect her son on the first sign of danger, has won her approval!
”Who are you? And what do you mean by fatal flaws? I see no problem with it myself and in fact, it was a much better formation when compared to the subjugation squad I was in back then.” Fei Longwei said, being an experienced person in group formations before.
Seeing that his party was slowly getting riled up by his mother, Duan Li was just about to tell them who she was when the latter then threw him a gaze to not say anything first and let her handle it.
Meng Yue chuckled when she heard Fei Longwei's reply, ”You're an ex-member at one of the Subjugation squads? At such a young age and low realm too..”
”If I am not mistaken, you must be practicing some form of special skill arts or the sorts and was recommended by one of the Senior Teachers? Impressive!”
Shen Murong then suddenly snorted, ”Hmph! Flattery would not deceive us from the fact that you are a suspicious person to intrude into someone else's residence court like this. Eventhough I can see that you are strong and we won't be a match for you, but if you don't state your business soon, I will call for reinforcements from my Shen clan!”
Meng Yue's brows shot up as she found something amusing.
”Hmm? You are from the Shen clan? That group of brutes with dragon bloodline flowing in them? Sorry to say but, back in the old days, your elders used to run errands for me. If you were to call them here, I'm afraid they'll just run back to your clan's residence and shut their gates tight such that, not even ants could come through from the crevices!” Meng Yue replied with a wide and smug grin.
Pu!
”Y-You..!” Shen Murong's veins popped out from his temples as he choked on himself.
Just what kind of existence was his Shen Clan?
Even in the whole Jiu Empire, in terms of pure battle prowess, their clan came in second after the Royal family, the Jiu Clan's phoenix bloodline!
In addition, their glory dated back since the ancient past, even before the founding of the Jiu Empire itself, and whenever wars were fought, the enemy would run between their tails just from hearing rumors that the Shen clan was participating in the battle!
Yet, this short lady claimed to have made his powerful elders, her errand boys back then?
