Looking at the small booklet that the other party took out, there were already nine names written on it. Furthermore, there was a special indication of the corresponding cultivation level of the nine people.

Among the nine of them, Tang Lichuan, who had advanced to the first level of Elemental Martial Stage, had the lowest strength.

Honestly speaking, Tang Lichuan did not want to cooperate to complete the mission.

It wasn't because Tang Lichuan felt that his realm was lower than those people's that made him get eliminated, but because there were too many things that he had to be wary of when working together with others. Especially this kind of quest that had a conflict of interest.

Inside the Profound Dragon Sect, the number of outer sect disciples were like crucian carp in a river, countless, and only by passing through the Dragon Gate and becoming a inner sect disciple, would they be able to rise to the sky in a single step, and receive the sect's focus on raising them.

With such a precious placing added to the competition for elimination, who wouldn't go all out to fight for it?

The human heart was dangerous, especially in the face of personal benefits. Tang Lichuan didn't want to finish his mission without having to be on guard against his comrades who were stabbed in the back.

Especially after going through the cooperative search of Liu Family, he felt that having more people might not necessarily be a good thing. Sometimes, it would even drag him down, and being partners with a bunch of idiots, would be better than being alone and free.

"Is there really no one who has completed this mission? It doesn't matter even if it's dangerous... I am not very good at cooperating with others! " Tang Lichuan laughed bitterly and said, which didn't seem to mean anything to the person in charge.

He knew that Tang Lichuan was the weakest amongst this group of people, and there were even two more who would be eliminated.

He shook his head and said, "There isn't any left. The mission we sent out was adjusted according to the changes in the Evil Realm. Right now, it is not suitable for one person to complete the mission. "Why don't you wait a little longer. The villains might soon let their guard down and at that time, we will arrange for a solo mission."

Who knew when the Evil Realm would let their guard down, not relaxing for a year, not relaxing for ten years, was Tang Lichuan still going to wait for another ten years?

Moreover, there was only about a year or so until the Ghost Clan invaded, so how could Tang Lichuan have the time to dawdle? If he wanted to further raise his strength, becoming a inner sect disciple was something that he had to do.

"Alright, I'll register to participate in this team mission." With a sigh, Tang Lichuan had no choice but to agree to the team quest that he wasn't willing to participate in.

"Have you really thought it through? Once it was signed, there was no way to go back on his words! If you get eliminated, you know the consequences! "

The person in charge still wanted Tang Lichuan to think about it more carefully. After all, Tang Lichuan was someone that Gan Lin had recommended, if he was eliminated in this team mission, he would have five years to himself before the assessment. He would have to waste five years in outer sect, which had a huge impact on the future of martial cultivator!

If it was someone from the Opening Spirit Stage, then it would be alright. However, Tang Lichuan was already a person from the Elemental Martial Stage, so if he did not enter the depths of the inner sect to study, there was not much of a chance for him to improve by staying there.

Staying behind in the outer sect and staying with people who were inferior to him, hearing too much flattery would inevitably cause his heart to laze around. Once he lost the will to fight for martial arts, he would most likely become crippled.

"Thank you for your kind intentions, but I've already decided. I can't wait any longer, so I'll participate in this exam."

As Tang Lichuan spoke, he signed his name on the wooden slip, and at the same time, his outer sect disciple badge flashed, causing the name on the wooden slip to be branded with a ring of faint spiritual energy, which indicated that he could not go back on his words.

"Well, since you have decided, you can take this thing. Tomorrow morning, we will meet in the small forest at the east side of the town. There will be a special person to send you to the villain's stronghold!"

With that, the person in charge handed over a milky white jade pendant to Tang Lichuan. Holding the jade pendant in his hand, Tang Lichuan realized that his Qi had become weaker, but his spirit energy was not obstructed at all.

"The evil people's stronghold has many mechanisms to sense the aura, this is an item that everyone who attends can have, it can hide part of the aura, but this thing has a time limit, the effect of hiding the aura for more than ten days will disappear."

After the manager finished speaking, Tang Lichuan thanked and took his leave. There were still a few hours until tomorrow, he had to find an inn in the town and wait for the mission to start tomorrow.

"Little brother, come with us. Someone is looking for you!"

Not long after he left the manager's office, Tang Lichuan was walking alone on a quiet street when two people came around from the front and back blocking his path. The person behind him quickly came up and spoke in a low voice.

"I don't know anyone here, you've got the wrong person!"

Tang Lichuan looked at the two of them, their faces full of treachery. It was obvious that they were not good people, so he had no interest in meeting other people with them.

"I'm not wrong. You're the one I'm looking for. Come with us."

The two of them still did not have any intentions of giving up, and at the same time, slowly walked towards Tang Lichuan, as though they wanted to forcefully bring him away.

"No matter who sent you guys, if anyone dares to take a step closer, you will have to bear the consequences!" Tang Lichuan squinted his eyes, his sensing power locking onto the two of them, his tone was cold.

"Little brother, don't be so cold! Second Young Master Long greets you! " The person behind him smiled, his expression suddenly became sinister, a silver dagger slipped out of his sleeves and stabbed at Tang Lichuan's waist!

"Humph!" Tang Lichuan's face sunk. He had already seen that these two were not good people, how could he not be wary?

With a flash, the figure turned into smoke and appeared behind the dagger-wielding man.

Puchi! Two of his fingers pierced through the man's throat. Fresh blood splattered all over the man's face!

"Who's Second Young Master Long?"

Slowly retracting his finger, the man's body became weak and fell to the ground. Tang Lichuan looked at the blood on the tip of his finger and asked the other man who had been scared silly.

"So powerful!" What a sharp movement martial skill, this person is an expert! "

The two of them had also cultivated to the first stage of Elemental Martial Stage, so they came to "greet" Tang Lichuan after receiving the reward from Second Young Master Long. Who knew that their companion would be killed by Tang Lichuan in a single move?

"Don't think too much. You will die unless you tell me who ordered you!" Tang Lichuan's figure flashed again, disappearing from his original position, but the voice came from behind!

The man turned pale with fright. He dashed forward and rolled on the ground. His entire body was covered by a fiery red attributed battle armor!

Bang!

Tang Lichuan's blue imbued Yuan Qi fist fiercely landed on the opponent's shoulder, the fiery red attributed armor shattered. The person felt a pressure on his shoulder, his entire body was so stiff that he did not dare move.

"Please spare me, young hero! We brothers were forced to do this and this job was just for the sake of eating, so please let me go, alright? " Being someone from the same Elemental Martial Stage, every single movement of this person seemed to be within Tang Lichuan's expectations. He suddenly sensed that Tang Lichuan's battle experience was not weak at all.

Due to the different circumstances each person faced and different degree of concentration, when he used the attributed armor, it would definitely have different strengths and weaknesses. And his shoulder was exactly the weakest point of the defense, who would have thought that Tang Lichuan would see through it with a single glance!

"Let you go?"

Tang Lichuan sneered as he struck his knee on his opponent's back, the person staggered and pounced forward. Before he could even react, Tang Lichuan's right hand had already grabbed his head and smashed into the ground, using the Lion Barbarian Fist to take his life.

He took out a dagger from his opponent's sleeve and said with a smile, "Doing this kind of thing while begging for mercy would stimulate my killing instinct!"

"However, rather than being a small fry that can be used as a weapon, I hate those schemers who can take control of everything behind the scenes!" Laughing, Tang Lichuan threw out the dagger and rushed towards the private room on the second floor of a restaurant five hundred meters away.

His senses swept across the room on the second floor and discovered that there was someone secretly observing him. The other party's expression and expression had all entered into Tang Lichuan's mind.

Dong!

The dagger pierced through the window and deeply embedded itself into the wall of the room. A drop of blood slowly dripped from the shiny blade.

In the room, a trace of blood that was as thin as a strand of hair appeared on the left cheek of a blue-clothed youth.

His eyes clouded over as he watched Tang Lichuan, who had disappeared into the streets. This person said with a cold voice: "You dare to make this young master bleed, you can only live until tomorrow!"
