“Cough.” Ma Ta suddenly said with a smile, “It’s truly great to see Mentor appear.”
“We’ve finished the mission of hunting ten spiritual beasts level-two and above. Can you bring us out of here now?”
Mentor Wei Xu’s expression shifted as he looked at Ma Ta. “Oh? Then where are the cores.”
Qiao Mu swept him a cool glance. “Wait.”
Afterwards, she called for Duanmu Qing, Ma Ta, and the little fatty to circle behind a rock with her. Only then did she take out the ten spiritual beast carcasses.
The four of them carried the spiritual beast carcasses to the mentor.
Wei Xu gave the students a complicated look. He glanced again at that spiritual beast that had clearly gotten butchered.
Mentor Wei Xu knitted his brows as he stared at Qiao Mu sternly. “Since you are a talisman practitioner, you should have a storage talisman?”
Qi Xuanxuan and the others felt their hearts sink.
They had gotten too carried away earlier. They had actually exposed Qiaoqiao’s identity as a talisman practitioner in front of Mentor Wei Xu.
Qiao Mu nodded lightly.
This matter simply couldn’t be hidden from the academy. Moreover, she didn’t think that there was anything to hide about it.
It wasn’t like being a talisman practitioner was some kind of skill that was not fit to be seen.
So what if she could draw talismans? That was because she had the talent!
“Since that is the case, why didn’t you say so at the beginning?” Mentor Wei Xu asked coldly, “I had sealed your conscious pool, but who would’ve expected that you still had such a cheat as a storage talisman. Then is there a difference whether I seal your conscious pool and inner worlds or not?”
“You didn’t ask.”
Wei Xu was startled. It took a moment for him to realize that the little fellow had been responding to his first question of “why didn’t she say so at the beginning.”
He couldn’t help but be angered into laughter!
He wasn’t just saying it, but this student gave him an extremely bad impression from the moment they met.
She had been putting on the airs of a lady from a patrician family. Everybody had reached Apex Academy’s summit after putting in effort to do so, yet her? Could she have been any more brazen than coming while riding a phoenix?
Of course, patrician families had their means. For example, this child was totally emanating the air of a “nouveau riche.”
A casual wave produced an ancient bloodfire phoenix sacred beast!
Right now, he also discovered that she commanded consummate skill over drawing talismans as a talisman practitioner.
As this child’s starting point was much higher than other people’s, it couldn’t be helped that she would be proud and aloof.
He wasn’t targeting her intentionally. He just wanted to take the edge off her arrogance and mellow her attitude.
Their academy would not necessarily be able to keep such an ambitious and proud child.
Mentor Wei Xu scowled and inflexibly took this situation out of context. “In that case, your results are inflated.”
“How is it inflated!” They had just been thinking that this mentor who had stood up to protect them wasn’t all that disagreeable. Who knew that he would still be that disagreeable after a blink!
Qi Xuanxuan shouted uncontrollably, “We had worked hard to hunt these ten spiritual beasts!”
“You had sealed our inner worlds! We had just been nibbling on dry food these last two days. How are our results inflated?”
“Even though I am not a talisman practitioner, I know that storage talismans can hold many items.” Mentor Wei Xu stated while giving them an indifferent glance, “Compared to other people, your team clearly has the advantage in sustenance.”
Qi Xuanxuan arched her eyebrows in anger, but she couldn’t help but feel a little bit guilty when she thought about that spiritual tea.
But how could they back down now?
They couldn’t just agree with a nod and allow Mentor Wei Xu to invalidate their results!
“You have no proof..” Qiao Mu gazed at Mentor Wei Xu icily.
