Full Dive: Eternal Phantasy

Chapter 246: Test Results

Elder Tian looked at all the disciples who were split into two groups, well, if you could call it two groups. It was basically one group of five while the other side was the rest of the disciples who were all glaring at the group of five with hatred in their eyes. "The final test is over. Each team should bring up the cores they..."

"Elder Tian! I wish to report something!" A young man yelled out as he glared at Misaki.

"Oh, and what do you wish to report?" Elder Tian already had an idea of what the complaint was but still asked.

"That group over there, not only robbed us of our demonic beasts cores, they even stole our interspatial rings." The young man answered.

"Oh? And Miss Misaki what do you have to say about this?" The elder asked.

"Hmmm? Oh well, first they were too weak and gave me the cores but since I had no place to store them, I took their rings. What's wrong with that?" Misaki answered while tilting her head to the side with a confused expression on her face. She then continued: "You said from the start that we were to collect demonic beasts cores but you never said how we should collect them. I did not kill anyone or beat them up. They willingly gave me their cores and rings without me doing any physical violence."

Elder Tian did his best to hold back his laughter. 'Of course, you didn't do any physical violence! You could just suppress them with that pressure you give off.' He kept his comment to himself and turned to the young man who made the complaint. "What do you have to say against this?"

"She threatened to string us up naked if we did not hand our things over. Are we not all disciples of the same sect now? Why is she using underhanded methods when she is so much more powerful than us?" The young man shouted in anger. He could not live down the humiliation he felt when he was forced to hand his ring and demonic beasts cores over.

"Young man, I did not say how one can get cores. So if you were robbed of your cores this is your own fault for not being strong enough. Her taking your rings is also something she can not get in trouble for. Since she did not actually force you to give the ring. If you had taken the punishment of being hung up naked and still had your ring taken, then I would be able to stand up for you but you willingly gave up your rings. This is not the fault of anyone but yourself for being weak and without courage. This exercise was done in a way to allow all of you to understand what the real cultivation world is like. There is much competition for resources outside the sect's borders. If you do not have the courage to stand up to someone stronger and the wit to outsmart your opponent then you will be slaughtered without even knowing how or why. 

"Let me tell you this! If you wish to become strong then you need courage! Courage to run headlong into danger even if the odds are against you. Many dragons have risen and fallen over the years. Some who shook the heavens themselves when they were alive. They all started off where you are now. But these people acted more like the group you are complaining about than a sniveling little brat who tries to get gains after suffering a loss.

"Did any of you try to put up a fight? Did any of you try to run? No, you gave up before you even had a chance. This is utterly disgraceful! Do not come to me and whine when you did not even try to do a damn thing on your own! Young man, you and your group of five, have now lost all their resources for the next six months and they will be given to Misaki Mitsu and her team. 

"Does anyone else wish to join them?" Elder Tian looked at all the disciples who quickly lowered their heads. "Good Now let's get to counting cores."

In the end there were only five groups with demonic beast cores. Misaki's group ended up with over eight thousand cores and taking first place. When the counting was over, Elder Tian called Misaki over to the side and let out a sigh. "Miss Misaki, I know you are very strong, but can you refrain from actions like you did earlier when it comes to your sect mates?" 

"If you wish. You have the final say since you are an elder. I will not oppose your words." Misaki answered with a smile.

Elder Tian felt very grateful for how understanding Miski was and nodded his head in approval. "I must ask what do you plan to do with this winged lion?" 

"He is my Yan'er portable bed so he will go where Yan'er goes. Its name is Cutey Cuddles." Misaki replied to only receive a strange look from Elder Tian.

Elder Tian looked at the Winged Lion and suddenly felt pity for it. "Alright, but you should have it form a contract with her so it will be easier to move around when you do not need it for anything."

"Contract?" Misaki never heard anything about contracts.

"I will help you two form the contract. Call the little girl over." Elder Tian said. Although he was a little jealous of the fact that Qian Yan was getting such a high ranking demonic beast, he also felt this was a good thing and maybe just maybe it would stop people from trying to do anything to Qian Yan if Misaki was not around. He shivered at the thought of someone attempting to target Qian Yan if Misaki was busy doing other things.
