Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation

While Jie Kuangren was still contemplating, the Sword Array team of Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy broke through the last obstacle, the Immortal Puppet Array, and successfully reached the summit.

Although the other Sword Array teams were still battling on the Sword Formation Stairs, the ranking on the Array Formation Screen for the Sword Array team competition had already been revealed.

There was only one ranking on the Array Formation Screen, which was the first place, the Sword Array team of Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy, followed by the names of the eight members of the team.

Yuan You's hands were trembling with excitement.

This Sword Array competition did not have any elimination rounds or finals.

The Sword Array race in the group competition involved climbing the Sword Formation Stairs; now that the Sword Array team from Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy had secured the first place, it was guaranteed to be the first, with no chance of other teams overturning the result.

Even if the other teams managed to reach the summit, they could only rank from the second place onwards.

First place could secure one Immortal Emperor advancement slot, three Immortal Venerable slots, and ten Immortal King slots.

Jie Kuangren walked towards Yuan You.

"Greetings, Lord Xie." Upon seeing Jie Kuangren approaching, Yuan You and the other deans hastily greeted him.

Jie Kuangren's personality was cold and indifferent, rarely associating with these deans, Immortal Lords, or Alliance Hierarchs.

However, his reputation was the most prominent in the entire Great Dao Corridor.

Ever since Jie Kuangren single-handedly exterminated the Demigod Hall with a single sword, no force in the Great Dao Corridor dared to challenge the Immortal Supervisory Council.

This is also why no one dared to provoke the Ten Thousand Laws without reason.

Jie Kuangren nodded slightly: "I need to trouble Dean Yuan to take me to see your academy's Daoist Ding Huan."

Yuan You was momentarily stunned; it wasn't surprising that Jie Kuangren wanted to find Ding Huan.

With Ding Huan's level of teaching, he would soon become a coveted existence sought after by all academies.

For the first time, Ding Huan led students to achieve first place in the group competition and the Sword Array race.

Even if Ding Huan's other students failed to achieve any rankings, Ding Huan was bound to become a Four-Star Daoist.

A Daoist whose students won an Immortal Emperor advancement slot in the Daoist College Grand Competition.

If he was below Four-Star, he would directly advance to Four-Star. If above Four-Star but below Seven-Star, he would advance by one star.

"Lord Xie, Daoist Ding Huan is not here; he left due to some urgent matters a few months ago," Yuan You quickly said.

"Where did he go?" Jie Kuangren frowned slightly.

Ding Huan not being here indicated some alignment.

The two poisoned Luo Tian Immortals claimed they were poisoned in the wild because they attacked a cave mansion of a reclusive cultivator.

Although elsewhere in the Immortal Realm, attacking someone's cave mansion could justify being killed ten thousand times.

But here in the Great Dao Corridor, according to the Ten Thousand Laws of the Great Dao Corridor, cultivating in the wild was not protected by any laws, and anyone could attack.

And such attacks were justified.

"I really don't know." Yuan You shook his head.

The Great Dao Corridor's Ten Thousand Laws indeed had provisions for failing to report known information, but the penalty was not severe.

Even if he truly didn't know, even if he did, he felt displeased with Jie Kuangren's attitude and was disinclined to inform him.

Why should his academy's Daoist report his whereabouts to Jie Kuangren?

Ji Xing and others were discussing excitedly; having achieved first place, they each had the opportunity to cultivate on Great Dao Mountain.

At that moment, someone interrupted their conversation.

"Does anyone know where Daoist Ding has gone?"

The eight turned their heads in bewilderment, finding Dean Yuan You and a quiet young man standing behind them.

"Ji Xing, this is Lord Jie of the Immortal Supervisory Council. Lord Jie has some questions regarding a case; please share what you know."

Yuan You said amicably.

Immortal Supervisory Council's Lord?

Everyone became serious and quickly bowed.

Jie Kuangren waved his hand: "I am here to ask your Daoist Ding Huan about something. Do you know where he went?"

"We don't know." Ji Xing was the first to shake his head, his tone without hesitation.

The others followed, shaking their heads and saying they didn't know.

Jie Kuangren's gaze fell on Ji Xing; it was evident that Ji Xing's attitude suggested he wouldn't reveal even if he knew.

But he could tell Ji Xing wasn't lying and genuinely didn't know. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"Does anyone have Daoist Ding's Communication Bead?" Jie Kuangren softened his tone.

No one answered.

After a while, Ji Xing replied: "Daoist left in a hurry, seemingly for something urgent, and didn't leave a Communication Bead."

One thing he didn't mention: although Daoist Ding didn't leave a Communication Bead, he left a Teleportation Array Plate.

Jie Kuangren did not make things difficult for the cultivator students and left.

He was certain that after the grand competition, Ding Huan would surely come here.

Ding Huan taught such outstanding students; he would come to claim the advancement slot badges.

After Jie Kuangren left, Ji Xing and others lost their previous excitement.

How could they not know who Jie Kuangren was?

And they knew the responsibilities of the Immortal Supervisory Council.

Evidently, their Daoist Ding Huan had encountered some trouble, and it was significant enough to warrant the personal inquiry from the Immortal Supervisory Council's lord.

Everyone glanced at each other; after a while, Ji Xing spoke: "Regarding Daoist Ding, it's not our place to discuss."

"Correct, we should not discuss matters concerning our Daoist." Long Xiyue first loudly agreed.

Although Jie Kuangren didn't explicitly say anything, they vaguely sensed unease.

This unease was imperceptible before; after cultivating Daoist Ding's modified cultivation technique, this sixth sense became clearer.

"Dear senior brothers and sisters..." A melodious voice broke their silence.

Everyone turned to see a stunningly beautiful woman.

"Hello, Sister Mu." Zhu Qi hurriedly responded, his face slightly reddening.

The newcomer was Mu Wuhui, the only cultivator student to rank in the top five in this fighting competition, and even ranked higher than Zhu Qi.

Mu Wuhui was also the first prodigy of the Daoist College of Western Ruins.

If not for Daoist Ding emerging unexpectedly, producing eight monstrous students.

Mu Wuhui would still hold first place in the fighting competition.

Daoist College of Western Ruins was the number one academy in the Great Dao Corridor, perennially ranking first.

Before, these people would have no chance to converse with Mu Wuhui unless dispatched to the Competitive Dao Class.

Not to mention Mu Wuhui initiating a conversation with them.

Besides being the first prodigy, Mu Wuhui was also the first beauty of the Great Dao Corridor academies.

Among the numerous academies in the Great Dao Corridor, Mu Wuhui was the most beautiful, without exception.

Zhu Qi, having ranked fifth before the fighting finals, felt inherently inferior in front of Mu Wuhui.

"Sister Mu, do you have any matters to discuss?" Long Xiyue sensed Zhu Qi's unease and proactively asked.

She differed from the others.

Her status in the Long Family was not as high as the Mu Family, but it was still one of the mid-tier Immortal Clans.

She too lived amidst envious gazes, making her self-assured despite Mu Wuhui's presence.

Mu Wuhui blushed slightly: "I came to find Brother Ding."

Brother Ding?

Ji Xing and others looked at each other in surprise.

They were all cultivator students and also in the midst of the competition.

Daoist Ding was their teacher, yet this woman called their teacher Brother Ding; was she trying to take advantage of them?

Ji Xing's face darkened:

"Mu Wuhui, Daoist Ding is not here. Moreover, don't think of taking advantage of us; such immature tricks won't make us hold back on the fighting platform."

Mu Wuhui was the only one they could compete with on the fighting platform.

Lin Zhenruo, being perceptive, had heard of Mu Wuhui and knew she wasn't immature.

She hesitated and asked: "Mu Wuhui, is your Mu family planning to pair you with Daoist Ding?"

Though she didn't finish, everyone understood her intent; she couldn't think of any other possibility.

Mu Wuhui was the first prodigy of Daoist College of Western Ruins, unlikely to inquire about Daoist Ding at this time.

Mu Wuhui nodded: "Yes, therefore I want to know Brother Ding's whereabouts. After this grand competition, I want to see Brother Ding."

After the initial awkwardness, Mu Wuhui returned to normal.

This matter was nothing to hide as it concerned her lifelong future.

Mu Wuhui had seen Ding Huan's portrait, found him handsome, and felt satisfied.

Ding Huan's students' prowess proved his capability.

Even a fool could predict the heights Ding Huan would reach in the Great Dao Corridor.

The Mu family wanted to attract Ding Huan, with Mu Wuhui as the bait.

Such matters weren't new to the Mu family, who consistently excelled at it.

After all, the Mu family produced beauties.

The Mu family's clan leader had already discussed this with Mu Wuhui, so she came to inquire about Ding Huan before the fighting finals.

If Ding Huan were here, meeting him would be ideal.

If not, knowing his whereabouts would allow her to seek him out after the grand competition.

While everyone pondered how to respond to Mu Wuhui, the voice of Immortal Lord Zhu Qi rang out:

"The group competition is over; it's time to award the first-place prizes. All participating cultivator students please proceed to the platform for your awards."

The Great Dao Corridor Daoist College distributed awards differently than other competitions.

Rewards were given immediately after each competition's ranking was announced, never delayed until the competition concluded.

"Let's go claim the Sword Array team's reward." Ji Xing waved, and the eight hurried to the awarding platform.

No one paid attention to Mu Wuhui.

Mu Wuhui could only follow; she had participated in the group competition but not in the Sword Array.

When Ji Xing and others arrived, the awarding platform was already set up.

Only the top three teams from each group were eligible to receive awards on stage.

The Sword Array team from Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy, having placed first, stood in the forefront row.

Yuan You and the entire top management of Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy watched Ji Xing and his team with excitement.

By achieving first place in the Sword Array competition, the academy secured one Immortal Emperor advancement slot, three Immortal Venerable slots, and ten Immortal King slots.

Yuan You had already decided how he would allocate the Immortal Emperor slot.
