The moment the teleportation began, not only were the Federation Seedlings shocked, even Feng Qiuran of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace was paying attention to it. After all, she was very concerned, since it was the first time that a Federation Seedling had sent back a cultivation technique.
However, the one that was most concerned was… Duan Muque!
Right now, Mercury remained heavily guarded and in a state of vigilance ever since the Federation Seedlings were teleported months ago. Even Li Xingwen personally stood guard there.
Right now, as Li Xingwen opened up the array formation in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, a bright glow was immediately seen on Mercury’s teleportation array formation. There was little direct communication between the Federation and the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. So, the moment Li Xingwen realized what was happening, he grew extremely solemn, and the cultivators surrounding him also focused all their attention on it.
Regardless of whether it was the Solar System array formation or the Anti-Spirit Bomb, everything was put on standby, ready to fire. Duan Muque also came to know what was happening at the earliest possible moment. Even though he was on Earth, he could still use some Dharmic Artifacts to form an illusory image of himself, which he projected onto Mercury.
As the entire Federation was soaking in a tense atmosphere, the teleportation array formation was unleashed completely. The glow covered a distance of thousands of feet, and a loud boom emerged from within. However, this time, the scale was clearly much smaller than when the hundred Federation Seedlings were being teleported.
As such, Li Xingwen and Duan Muque narrowed their eyes. They didn’t immediately give the green light for things to proceed, and instead chose to observe the situation first.
Even though the teleportation array formation could send things bidirectionally, it required the approval from both sides. For example, opening the teleportation array formation required the acknowledgment and approval from Mercury’s side before the teleportation could proceed. There could perhaps be ways where teleportation could take place without approval, but it would require a high price be paid.
“It doesn’t seem like someone is being teleported back. It seems like a jade slip is being sent back!” Before long, a glow flashed across Li Xingwen’s eyes. He seemed to be able to look past the glow from the teleportation and vaguely see the item being sent back, which still remained an illusion.
After confirming what was happening, Duan Muque held a short discussion with Li Xingwen before the two of them decided to give the green light. With approval being given, the glow became even more brilliant, and the illusory jade slip within it could be visibly observed. In the blink of an eye and amidst the loud boom, as the glow from the teleportation array formation dissipated, a jade slip that floated in the middle of the teleportation array formation caught everyone’s attention.
Li Xingwen raised his right hand and grasped. Immediately, the jade slip arrived at high speed, being caught by him the moment it neared. After scanning it with his Spiritual Sense, Li Xingwen laughed heartily.
“It’s a cultivation technique! It was sent by Li Yi, the disciple from the four great Dao Colleges!”
In his agitation, Li Xingwen was also somewhat confused. According to his predictions, Wang Baole should be the first to send a cultivation technique back.
Without waiting for Li Xingwen to ponder it, Duan Muque, who was beside him, agitatedly took the jade slip. Even though he was only present as a projected image, his cultivation level still allowed him to look through the jade slip. After seeing the words ‘Vast Expanse Skill’ written on the jade slip, Duan Muque laughed heartily towards the sky. He was in high spirits.
“Good job, Li Yi!” In his excitement, his physical being on Earth also agitatedly stepped out of seclusion. He immediately sent an order to announce the matter to the entire Federation. At the same time, after taking a deep breath, he sent another command.
“The Federation Seedlings Contributions Ranking that we have prepared previously can be launched now. We need to let everyone in the Federation know about the contributions made by the Federation Seedlings for the Federation!”
As Duan Muque sent out the command, the entire system in the Federation began to operate. A ranking list from the Federation directed to the entire Solar System appeared on all media and advertising platforms simultaneously, with such a huge coverage that up to ninety percent of the people in the Federation were exposed to it!
It was a long ranking list with a hundred names on it, arranged according to last names. After every name was a digit, 0.
However, after the ranking list appeared and was noticed by countless people, the hundred names on the list blurred. Instantly, a gold-colored name appeared at the top!
That name was Li Yi’s, and the number that followed after was changed from 0 to 1!
The entire Federation was filled with agitation. Duan Muque was also immensely satisfied and delighted about making the ranking list. To him, the ranking list represented fairness, as well as the contributions made by every Federation Seedling. At the same time, it also paved the way to success for the hundred Federation Seedlings.
With the entire Federation surprised, Wang Baole, who was on the ancient greenish-bronze sword, also widened his eyes. Looking at Li Yi’s message in the group chat, he didn’t know what actions the Federation took, but he could imagine that the Federation would be announcing Li Yi’s name with pride right now.
That made Wang Baole unhappy. If it were someone else that had sent the cultivation technique back, he wouldn’t have felt this way. However, Wang Baole felt that Li Yi was a brainless person who had nothing but a big chest. He also couldn’t figure out how Li Yi had managed to obtain two thousand battle credits.
Is she trying to steal my limelight on purpose? Wang Baole snorted. Even though he was unhappy, he didn’t place much emphasis on the teleportation that took place this time. He had his own plans, and he was more focused on the end result.
I, Wang Baole, am a person with principles. There’s no need for me to care about her. Wang Baole took a deep breath and was about to put the regional Spirit Internet jade slip away when at this moment, Li Yi’s insulting and arrogant voice emerged from the group chat.
“Fellow Daoists, the Vast Expanse Dao Palace is our new beginning. I believe that everyone here would surpass themselves and reach new heights! This is unlike someone else who thinks highly of himself. Even though his cultivation level is high, this is not the Federation, but the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. The rules are different, and he is nothing without the Federation’s help!”
The moment Li Yi’s words were heard, everyone in the group fell silent. They clearly knew that after a month of silence, Li Yi had begun to attack Wang Baole directly.
Wang Baole had wanted to keep his jade slip away, but after hearing how arrogant Li Yi was, he raised his eyebrows, and his anger raged. He stared sternly and immediately leaped into the air, charging towards the Vast Expanse Dao Palace from Green Fire Island.
The first place he went to was the Vast Expanse Techniques Chamber to exchange three cultivation techniques worth a thousand battle credits each. After that, he charged towards the teleportation array formation in Vast Expanse Dao Palace. The entire process didn’t last long, and soon, the teleportation array formation of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace was opened up once again!
As the second time the teleportation array formation opened up wasn’t long after the first time, it immediately caught the attention of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. The Dao Palace cultivator in charge of teleportation gasped in shock, especially after noticing Wang Baole taking out three jade slips and paying three thousand battle credits to open up the teleportation array formation.
Three thousand battle credits was a large amount in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. Even Feng Qiuran was surprised after hearing about it, much less the Federation…
The glow from Mercury’s teleportation array formation had just dissipated before it started glowing again. This time, the glow was several times more brilliant than previously. Li Xingwen had just heaved a sigh of relief when he grew vigilant again. That was the case for Duan Muque as well, his illusory figure gathering once again a short while after it had dissipated.
With the duo fully focused on what was happening, a loud boom reverberated. The glow from the teleportation was so brilliant that it made Duan Muque gasp.
“Could it be that a person is being teleported back this time?” As the two of them reveled in shock, and as all the forces were on the highest alert, Li Xingwen’s eyes suddenly widened.
“It’s not a person… It’s a jade slip… Three of them!”
“Three jade slips?” Duan Muque was shocked and was instantly filled with indescribable joy. Therefore, after giving approval, the glow from the teleportation gradually dissipated. Three jade slips appeared clearly within the teleportation array formation. Duan Muque couldn’t wait and grabbed hold of all of them. After looking through them, he grew even more agitated than when he noticed the cultivation technique that Li Yi had sent back previously. Li Xingwen, who was beside him, also hurriedly took a look, and a wide smile appeared on his face.
“Three cultivation techniques, all sent by Wang Baole. This chap is capable indeed!” In his exhilaration, Duan Muque’s physical being on Earth immediately announced the news. Soon, the people in the Federation all noticed in astonishment that changes were appearing on the Federation Seedlings Contributions Ranking List again!
Li Yi, was originally ranked at the top. However, right now, Wang Baole’s name glowed in a gold-colored hue and appeared at the top position, and the number after his named leaped from 0 to 3!
This shocked the entire Federation. Countless people were agitated, and at the same time, Wang Baole also ended the teleportation process. He proudly turned and charged back to Green Fire Island. Along the way, he couldn’t wait to open up the regional Spirit Internet jade slip group chat. He began to send out a calm-sounding message.
“What a coincidence, I have also just sent three cultivation techniques back. Ah, being on a high level just makes one formidable.”
As Wang Baole’s words were heard in the group chat, it was like a huge rock had fallen into a calm pond, creating ripples. Gasps of shock and incredulous expressions immediately emerged from the chat.
