Feng Wu frowned when she saw their reactions. She asked Chen Ziyun, “Do we earn rewards if we defeat the people of the Military Academy?”

Chen Ziyun shook his head. “No. That only happens when we defeat the people of the Dongsang Kingdom.”

Feng Wu said, “Aren’t we here to earn rewards? If we can’t get anything out of a battle, why should we bother to fight? Why don’t we beat each other up in the fortress?”

That was right —

Hearing that, everybody calmed down and no longer wanted to cut their opponent’s throat.

Song Yao glanced at Ying Yuan. “We won’t help you if you run into danger here. Let’s go!”

He led the other four team members into the woods.

Senior Sister Lan smirked. “Help us? They’ll be the ones who need help!”

Their journey resumed.

Feng Wu observed her surroundings and memorized all the paths they had taken. It was vital that she didn’t lose her way in the woods.

Senior Sister Lan looked back at Feng Wu and smirked.

She told Senior Brother Min, “Do you see what that fool is doing? She’s trying to memorize the routes. Doesn’t she know how complicated the terrain is? No one can remember what paths they’ve taken!”

Senior Brother Min felt embarrassed and didn’t want to reply.

However, Senior Sister Lan wouldn’t stop talking.

“I can’t believe how stupid she is. Doesn’t she know we have a built-in compass in our armband? We can walk out of the Dayless Woods just by following it. Instead, she’s using her brain. She’s hopeless!”

Senior Sister Lan was hostile toward Feng Wu because she was jealous of the girl.

Feng Wu raised an eyebrow. “What if the armband is broken?”

“Don’t make me laugh! How can it be broken?” Senior Sister Lan found that suggestion idiotic.

Feng Wu asked Chen Ziyun, “Do we have a repair service office for the armbands?”

Chen Ziyun said, “Yes. It’s in the exchange office.”

Feng Wu glanced at Senior Sister Lan, who looked like she was being choked and couldn’t say a word.

Soon, she sneered at Feng Wu. “Only people with low cultivation levels like you will get caught and break your armband. Senior cultivators like us will never let that happen!”

Feng Wu nodded and ignored her.

She already knew how to handle somebody like Senior Sister Lan. They always thought other people were as foolish as they were.

Feng Wu only needed an opportunity to defeat her once and for all.

She didn’t need to waste her spit.

“Look! An essence crystal!” Senior Sister Lan picked up a crystal from a crack in a rock, looking pleasantly surprised. “Look! Lucky!”

Feng Wu looked at the essence crystal.

It was her first time seeing one, and she immediately saw that the essence crystal was denser and purer than spiritual stones.

Meanwhile, in the general’s quarters of the fortress, the crown prince was tossing and turning in bed.

Feng Xun had been eavesdropping outside for a while. Hearing the noise, he decided to pop in and have a look.

What if Boss Jun wanted to kill himself?

Knock, knock, knock —

Feng Xun tapped on the door.

The sulking crown prince suddenly sat up.

Was she back?
