Chapter 190: An Overlooked Detail (2/2)

It resembled that of a fire though at its core, there was a black circle with three dots within it.

”This is my sigil, showing it at the gates of the kingdom should get you in and bring you to the Stellar Sky Foundation. That is where I spent much of my time before coming here. When you're there, find someone named ”Ou Fenhuang”, tell her that you are a student of the one named ”Shen Zhong”, she will do the rest.”

Ming Yue examined the mark on her arm before she thanked him wholeheartedly, knowing that his help was more than enough.

”Alright then, make your preparations and set off quickly. You have much to do.”

Elder Shen waved his hand once more, reforming the illusion and went back to reading his book. Though this time around, he had small smile as he read.

Ming Yue left quickly and went off to find her two pet companions. After close to an our of searching, she found them running around with the Bestial Elder in one of the larger training fields.

”Elder Zhou?” she called out.

”Ah, girl! Right on time! We were just about to watch some sparring matches. Care to watch with us? It's your two small friends against two of ours”, the bestial elder turned around and spoke with a carefree tone, managing to convince her to stay and watch.

Joining the group of Beast Hall disciples, she sat on the soft grass and watched the fight in front of her. None of them really cared that she was here, there were often others who would come nd watch the outdoor spars of the Beast Hall's creatures.

At the center of the large training field, she saw both Hei Yue and Xiao Yin fighting together against another pair of beasts, a small red furred monkey and a auburn horse with a black horn. Both beasts, she was not familiar with.

The monkey rode on the horse's back, wielding a wooden staff. Spinning it around with ease, the pair ran circles around Hei Yue as the monkey's staff struck at the ground. Dust began to pick up, covering the fox's eyes. He did not move but the other two were already tightening the encirclement. His eyes tracked their bodies, waiting for an oppurtunity to strike.

Xiao Yin was already flying in the sky, looking at the situation below her.

”Who do you think will win?” asked Elder Zhou, he looked for her opinion with interest.

”I don't know, I'm not familiar with these types of fights.”

It was true, Ming Yue did not know who would win. Perhaps if it were a match against people, she might have some input but between beasts, she could only guess. The principles of fighting were different between cultivators and beasts, different actions and thoughts.

”Oh, well I think that your little friends will win. You'd be surprised by how much that Bai Ying had taught them”, Elder Zhou spoke confidently.

This had piqued her interest. What had they been up to when she was with Elder Xiang?

Her eyes returned to the fight, and watched as the monkey and horse pair closed in on Hei Yue. Enough dust had gathered that neither they nor Hei Yue could be seen, only their silhouettes. The black horned horse suddenly charged at the fox as the monkey leaped off of its back, aiming to land behind their victim. With staff in the monkey's hand, it spun faster and faster as the monkey gathered momentum. The horse had lowered their head, the sharp horn raced forward, aiming for Hei Yue's body.

A pincer attack!

It was a coordinated move that anyone would find difficulty breaking. But such a thing would not happen so easily for as they made their move, so did Hei Yue and Xiao Yin.
