Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

By the kitchen side, at the table.

When Ye Luo and the other two heard Zhang Han straight up betting Ao Yu as the stake, they were momentarily stunned.

Playing for such high stakes?

Betting a mount as the prize...

Ye Luo even pondered for a moment.

He was estimating whether Ao Yu was qualified enough to be used as a stake.

After a while,

Ye Luo finally spoke up.

"It won't do, second junior brother. Although your mount is indeed a pureblood azure dragon, it has a deficiency in qi and blood, and it's unclear what it has gotten itself into. If it were in normal condition, offering it as one or two magical treasures would be more than sufficient. But this Azure Dragon in its current state just won't suffice," Ye Luo said, waving his hand.

Upon hearing this,

Zhang Han was taken aback.

What? Ao Yu has a deficiency in qi and blood?

That doesn't make sense.

He subtly spread his divine sense.

Soon, he located Ao Yu, who were lying on the ground at the cliffside, emitting strange noises.

Upon a closer look,

the creature indeed suffered a severe deficiency in qi and blood.

He hadn't been around during this time.

What on earth had the creature been doing???

The corners of Zhang Han's mouth twitched wildly.

To play to the point of having a deficiency in qi and blood...

Goodness!!

Zhang Han had wanted to call Ao Yu over and ask,

but before he could do so,

Li Ergang's voice came from outside.

"Here it comes, make way please, ladies and gentlemen, the Dragon's Blood Goji Berry Soup is ready—it's a great tonic! The taste would be perfect if we added some dragon meat to it..."

Li Ergang, holding a large pot of soup, approached the table.

He placed the soup steadily on the table, then got up to leave, but he paused upon seeing the four disciples' peculiar gazes.

Why are they looking at him like that?

Do I have something on my face?

"What's the matter, esteemed sirs? Did I prepare a dish poorly?" Li Ergang asked, with an ingratiating smile on his face.

"This dish, you made it with dragon blood? Where did you get this dragon blood?" Zhang Han asked in a strange tone.

"Well... I exchanged a little bit of it with Lord Zhang for your mount's blood,"

Li Ergang said, coughing twice before he spoke.

Upon hearing this,

Zhang Han's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

A little bit?

More like a lot!

How much blood must have been drained from such a massive azure dragon to make it come down with a deficiency in qi and blood?

Of course, Zhang Han had no intention of blaming anyone.

It's just that because of this issue, he was left without anything to use as a stake, which was quite frustrating.

Seeing this, Ye Luo stepped forward.

"Alright, since it was Er Gang who caused this, let's leave it be. Let's count this Azure Dragon as part of the stakes. Whoever doesn't rank within the top ten in the grand competition of ten thousand sects will forfeit their stake to the Wayless Sect," Ye Luo stated.

"If you lose, second junior brother, then this Azure Dragon shall become a mount for all of the Wayless Sect," Ye Luo continued.

"Yes, yes!"

Zhang Han immediately agreed.

His eyes were gleaming.

All this talk was just paving the way for him.

The first senior brother is a good man, indeed!

Who doesn't know that he's going to be the future Sect Master of the Wayless Sect?

"Then it's settled. Now then, third junior brother, what stake can you put up?" Ye Luo asked, appearing to have read Zhang Han's thoughts. He smiled unconcernedly and shifted his gaze towards Su Qianyuan.

"This... Senior brother, my storage bag has restrictions, and it will self-destruct if someone other than me tries to open it. However, I don't have any mana to open it. If I could, I actually do have a magical treasure," Su Qianyuan said bitterly.

"A restriction? Junior brother, let me take a look at your storage bag, I might be able to undo it," Zhang Han offered.

As someone who played with formation patterns, he had some familiarity with restrictions.

He might not be able to unlock some ancient restrictions, but he found standard ones quite simple to handle, given his expertise.

"Here, Second Senior Brother, it's here."

Su Qianyuan took out a storage bag from his waist and handed it to Zhang Han.

Zhang Han took it and paused for a moment.

"Third Junior Brother, is this...?"

"How cautious can you be? Thirty restrictive enchantments, plus traps enticing enemies further in, and once the thirtieth enchantment is broken, there are still hidden restrictions that will not only destroy the storage bag but also detonate everything inside it..."

Zhang Han couldn't help but laugh with resignation.

All this trouble, and in the end, it turned out to be a hassle for himself.

"Stop laughing, Second Senior Brother, can you break the enchantments on this storage bag or not?"

Su Qianyuan said awkwardly.

"Yes, these are all modern enchantments, they're easy to decipher."

Zhang Han said.

Right away, he infused mana into the storage bag, and a formation pattern coalesced in his heart and entered the storage bag along with his mana.

Creak...

A moment later, there was a crack.

Zhang Han withdrew his mana, the formation pattern dissipated, and he placed the storage bag on the table.

"It's done, Third Junior Brother, the enchantments on your storage bag have been undone, and now anyone could open it."

Zhang Han said indifferently.

"Then, please, Senior Brother, help me open it and take everything out, I have no mana and can't retrieve these items."

Su Qianyuan spoke with great frustration.

This was indeed a significant shortcoming of body refinement.

Being unable to use things like storage bags and storage rings.

Upon hearing this, Continue your saga on empire

Zhang Han nodded.

He opened the storage bag completely and started taking out everything inside.

Suddenly, countless spirit stones and over a hundred magical treasures were brought out.

The luminance of the spirit stones and magical treasures lit up the entire area by the kitchen.

Li Ergang, who was watching from the side, immediately knelt down.

So many spirit stones...

Forgive him for not being worldly...

He had never seen so many spirit stones before.

And those magical treasures.

My heavens.

Is this what it means to be a disciple from a hidden sect?

Such a generous display of spirit stones and magical treasures.

Li Ergang couldn't bear to keep looking.

He feared that if he continued, he might faint.

The other disciples over there weren't doing much better.

Apart from Ye Luo, the master of a Holy Land,

The other three were feeling quite mixed.

Dantai Luo Xue fared slightly better, as she possessed a treasure that surpassed spiritual treasures.

As for Su Qianyuan, he just felt utterly helpless, having so many items he would never be able to use.

As for Zhang Han,

He almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

As it turned out, among the sect disciples, he was actually the poorest.

"Third Junior Brother, besides bringing a magical treasure as a gift, you can't use the rest, right? What do you plan to do with all these spirit stones and magical treasures?"

Ye Luo suddenly asked.

"What do I plan to do? Might as well give them to Respected Master. Let Respected Master use them to enhance the Wayless Sect's foundations. Although these items might not be useful, they might at least add a little to the sect's foundation."

Su Qianyuan pondered and replied.

"Give them to Respected Master? Sounds good."

Ye Luo nodded.

He looked towards the direction of the Respected Master's palace, estimating the time for the Respected Master's emergence.

It had already been over four months, with less than a month left until the Grand Competition of a Thousand Sects.

As East State was situated in a remote location of Divinity Continent, traveling to Zhongzhou would take a considerable amount of time.

They needed to set out at least half a month early; otherwise, they would be too late.

While Ye Luo was thinking,

Suddenly, from the direction he was looking at, a familiar aura spread out.

Respected Master has emerged?

No!

Ye Luo's face showed a smile, but it instantly turned into a puzzled expression.

Why...

Why could he sense that the Respected Master's realm had advanced?

Foundation Establishment Realm??
