"Just putting on a show," Xu Ang sneered with disdain.

Qian Can and Wen Shuhao chimed in with mocking laughter.

Xing Luo gnashed her teeth, feeling quite indignant. "Look at her acting all high and mighty, going home indeed! When the time comes, she'll be the one dying the most miserably!"

Shen Ziqian also knitted his brows. "We're a team. How can she be so selfish?"

The scouts described the realm of Great Tang as wealthier than any overseas nation, while the royal fleet voyaging abroad was laden with abundant supplies. If they could intercept and plunder this fleet, those fellow disciples would surely feast until their lips shone with grease.

The Bone-Faceless Demon reappeared behind the Blue Moon Sovereign's head, violently accelerating forward. Its entire body quickly surged with silver light, hurtling onward like a shooting star.

The heritage of an outstanding university nurtures its students, yet likewise, the students graduating year after year feed back into that heritage, accumulating endless strength for the institution.

Reimu Hakurei was pressed down to the ground from behind, her face making intimate contact with the earth as she experienced the fragrant aroma of the soil up close.
