254 End of the Battle (2/2)
”Now that we have managed to get rid of all the bandits, what is the plans to do with the spoils?” Lin Xiao suddenly asked. ”I can ask this boar to take us to their treasury and we can take all the things they have looted throughout the years.”
”If you can do so, then we will be very grateful,” one of the four-eyed experts from the academy said with a slight bow. No one dared look down on Lin Xiao and the other three just because of their two eyes anymore.
”We would like to bring the loot back to the academy so that it can be distributed amongst the unfortunate souls that have been robbed and their descendants.”
Xue Wei was quite surprised when he heard that they did not want the loot for themselves, and although he had a few ideas about the valuables himself, he quickly lost interest when he saw that there were mainly weapons, gold, and silver alongside some essence stones.
He already had all of those items so gifting them to the academy in exchange for some merit points was a much better idea.
Like this, the students all stored everything within their storage treasures and returned to the academy's camp.
When they arrived, Elder Sun was ready to greet them, but the moment he noticed the figure of the bandit leader, his face turned dark and spiritual energy exploded from his body, knocking the bandit leader flying back.
”Halt! Elder halt your steps!” one of the four-eyed experts called out, petrified, and he quickly stepped between them, surprising Elder Sun.
”Why should I? He is a criminal deserving damnation! Why have you brought him back alive?!” Elder Sun was aggravated. It was clear that this man was their target, and yet here he was, alive and well.
”Elder Sun, he has been tamed by Sir Lin Xiao and his friends,” one of the people said with a quiet voice. ”Sir Lin Xiao is a Diviner. He is capable of taming beasts. He brought him back to be judged by the magistrate! We also brought back all the loot the bandits have accumulated throughout the years, all of it because Lin Xiao tamed the boar!”
”That's right, Sir Lin Xiao made everything much easier!” another agreed with a nod of his head, and soon the rest of the people nodded their heads and stood out to praise Lin Xiao.
It was at this point that Elder Sun's eyes roamed past all of them and his eyes widened. ”How did all of you break through your Qi layers?!” he then exclaimed with shock.
”It is known that it is impossible for us spiritual energy cultivators to have our Qi levels advance past the Heavenly Warrior rank, but now all of you are a rank above even me!”
Elder Sun felt his heart beating fast in his chest. He could not understand how this could happen. Everything that he had known was being changed right in front of him. Not only had a Primordial Beast been tamed, but now a whole bunch of students had turned into Ordinary Knights?!
”This is thanks to Sir Xue Wei,” another one said with pride in his voice. They were but teens and youths, but all of them were now Ordinary Knights!
”He offered us all a pill which boosted our Qi levels to the Ordinary Knight rank. This has been a great help for us throughout the battle with the bandits and caused us to have no fatal casualties, only serious wounds.”
Once again, Elder Sun was fully stunned by the fact that Xue Wei and his group had done such magnificent things. All the usual rules that the world followed seemed to be completely shattered one after another.
”Well, in that case, Elder Sun thanks Sir Xue Wei and his companions for helping the Garden of Shadow's campaign in becoming such a success!
”Everyone pack up the camp!”
Following this announcement, the camp became a big mess of people rushing around, packing up the tents and getting ready to return to the Garden of Shadows.
