Chapter 54: The Secret Realm of the Grotto
The entrance to the grotto secret realm is located in the deeper part of the desert on the north side of the martial arts arena.
A large group of people walked for about half an hour before finally reaching their destination.
Mu Ying raised her eyes and observed the layout around her.
Generally speaking, this place is similar to the stadium in later generations, with a high platform in the center, and above the high platform is the entrance to the teleportation array to enter the secret realm.
Around the high platform, a circle of stands was built, and there was an awning above the stands to facilitate everyone to wait and rest.
"Please invite His Royal Highness the Seventh, Miss Mu Xuening, and the top eight winners of this competition to take the stage!"
The presiding work of the head of the Ji family started again, and I saw him wave his hand, and Shangguan Lin and Mu Xuening, who had regrouped their image, took the stage hand in hand.
The combination of handsome men and beautiful women, noble and elegant temperament, friendly and gentle smile, mmmmmmmmmm......mm If you ignore the boos of the people who eat melons, it is actually quite eye-catching.
It's a pity that these two people have bad character and very poor popularity, and the short two steps on the stage seem to be as long and unbearable as a century.
The gentle smile on the corner of Shangguan Lin's mouth was about to be suppressed, and he accurately found Mu Ying in the crowd, and glared at him hatefully.
"Humph! This hall will never forget that today's shame is all due to Mu Ying, you waste! ”
"When you enter the secret realm later, this hall will definitely let you have no return!" Shangguan Lin silently swore in his heart that his hatred for Mu Ying had reached an unprecedented peak.
The allergies on Mu Xuening's face were not yet complete, she was already upset because she loved beauty like her life, and she listened to the sneering all the way, and she didn't bother to do the smirk on her face.
Xu is a scumbag and a have a heart, she also made the same action as Shangguan Lin, turned her head and glared at Mu Ying.
Anyway, the secret realm is not absolutely safe, and there may be people who are seriously injured or lose their lives every year, so it's not too late to clean up Mu Ying when the time comes......
The eyes of these two people are so sharp that it is difficult to ignore them, but Mu Ying is not flustered, and even smiled back.
Want to pit Master Ben? You're still young!
"Sister Muyun, let's go up too!" Mu Ying and Mu Yun looked at each other, and they took the stage as each other's companions.
At the same time, the three players of the Ji family, led by Ji Han, took the stage from the other side.
Ji Han was almost in a face-to-face position with Mu Ying, staring at her meaningfully for a long time, and the thoughts in his heart coincided with Shangguan Lin and Mu Xuening.
And Xia Ye and Xia Youlin of the Xia family were standing closer to Mu Ying before, and when Xia Youlin walked, he deliberately wanted to hit Mu Ying with his chubby body.
"Stinky boy, I didn't expect you to be so lucky that you could actually enter the top eight, but there are dangers in the secret realm, you have to be careful!"
Xia Youlin's nostrils were facing the sky, and the mung bean eyes that were about to be squeezed out by the fat meat on his face glared at Mu Ying angrily.
Mu Ying flashed lightly to the side, dodging Xia Youlin's fat body.
However, in the face of the other party's provocation, Mu Ying is not a master who gives up easily.
"Tsk...... To correct a little, this young master is the first place in this competition! It's not just about finishing in the top eight! ”
"Besides, the one who walked the shit and got into the top eight is clearly you, right?"
"In the first round, you met a weak opponent, in the second round, you met your own family and won without a fight, and in the third round, your opponent was greatly reduced because of the consumption in the first two rounds, and your strength was greatly reduced, which made it easy for you to win."
"A mere spirit disciple peak, you should be careful!"
"You ......" Xia Youlin was scolded, but what Mu Ying said was right, he couldn't refute it at all.
That is, he was so stunned, Mu Ying and Mu Yun had already ascended to the high platform, leaving him with only an arrogant back.
Xia Youlin stomped his feet unwillingly, glared at Mu Ying, and found that the other party didn't care at all, so he had to beckon to Mu Jia, who was lonely.
"Sister Mu Jia, Mu Ying, this guy is not interesting enough, they are all Mu family, but they don't take you, you might as well come with us!"
Mu Jia was worried that no one would form a team, and it seemed that her popularity was not good, so she immediately caught the olive branch thrown by Xia Youlin.
"Brother Youlin, it's still your best!"
Mu Jia smiled slightly, revealing two lovely wine vortices on her cheeks, diluting the innocence and pity in her watery eyes.
It seems that because she suffered two big losses in the hands of Mu Ying before, Mu Jia's IQ returned, and she no longer fought against Mu Ying in public, but pretended to be a cute little Lori again.
This trick is really easy to use, and the people who eat melons also look at their faces, everyone doesn't seem to hate her so much, and their comments on her are much better.
But the hatred in Mu Jia's heart has not diminished at all, Mu Ying, you wait for me!
"Okay, now that everyone is here, it's time to start distributing the distress jade cards!"
The head of the Ji family spoke in time, interrupting the eyebrows and eyes of several people.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the children of the Ji family holding a tray and walked forward, and on the tray, there were ten exquisitely shaped jade medals in the middle of the tray.
This kind of jade card Mu Ying knows that if she encounters an unsolvable danger after entering the secret realm, she can automatically pop up the secret realm by crushing the jade card.
Of course, crushing the jade plate is also giving up the journey to the secret realm in advance, no matter whether you find the baby you like or not, there is no chance to enter again, so everyone will be cautious.
But it's a good talisman, so it's still important.
The disciple held the tray and distributed the jade plaques in turn according to their status.
Mu Ying is the first place in this competition, and after Shangguan Lin and Mu Xuening got it, she was followed by her.
The jade brand tentacles are warm and cool, and the jade color is pure, which at first glance looks like a high-end product.
But at this moment, Mu Ying happened to catch a glimpse of the eyes of the Ji family master standing not far away, and a different color suddenly flashed.
Mu Ying immediately had a big alarm in her heart, the Ji family was very strange in this competition, could the jade plate distributed to her be problematic?
"Oops......" Mu Ying made a 'miss', the jade plate slipped from her hand, fell to the ground, and fell into eight petals with a 'click'.
"Tut, Master Ji, the quality of the jade plate you asked people to prepare is not good, it can't slip and can't hold it, and it will be broken into scum with a light fall! The tofu scum project is not so bad, right? ”
"Master Ji, you don't still hold a grudge against me, pointing out the many shortcomings of the Ji family's holding of this competition, so you deliberately gave me defective products, right?"
"I ......" the head of the Ji family was angry.
He is jealous of Mu Ying, and there is indeed a problem with the jade card, maybe he can't always mention the Ji family's bad points in this big competition?
"Mu Ying Gongzi thinks too much, how can the head of the family be such a small person, Young Master Mu Ying pointed out our fault, we are grateful, and we will correct it as soon as possible."
"As for the jade plate being broken...... Each batch of jade plates has a certain probability of producing defective products, which may just happen to be obtained by Young Master Mu Ying. ”
"But it doesn't matter, we have prepared a lot of jade plates, which will change you to a new ......"
"Hey, wait!" Mu Ying didn't buy it, "This jade card can save my life, I can't cultivate, the probability of encountering danger has greatly increased, and I can't make a mistake!" ”
"But I can't trust the head of the Ji family a little, it's better to do this, Uncle Mu Quan, you personally help me and Sister Mu Yun choose a good quality!"
"Otherwise, what if we are 'unlucky' and are assigned a defective product?"
Mu Ying's words were quite meaningful, and the eyes of the people who ate melons when they looked at the head of the Ji family were suddenly different.
"This kind of thing has to go through layers of inspections before it is brought up, but there is something wrong with Young Master Mu Ying, why is it so strange?"
"But isn't it, if it weren't for Young Master Mu Ying's cleverness, I'm afraid that some people's ways would be going to be triggered again......"
"You...... I ......" The head of the Ji family was so angry that his nose was crooked.
inevitably caused more serious consequences, so he had to grit his teeth and agree to Mu Ying's proposal.
"Brother Mu Quan, then it's hard for you! The jade plate prepared by my Ji family can definitely stand the test! ”
Regarding the safety of Mu Ying and his daughter, Second Elder Mu naturally responded to this matter happily.
Fortunately, after his selection among the spare jade cards, he didn't find any problems, and by the way, he also helped Mu Ying and Mu Yun pick two of the best quality.
"In this way, you should rest assured, remember to pay attention to safety when entering the secret realm, Yun'er, you take care of Mu Ying more, he can't cultivate after all......"
Mu Quan nagged a few words, Mu Ying smiled and thanked again and again, and when she took the jade card, she quietly stuffed a small note into Mu Quan's hand.
Mu Quan was immediately stunned, but just as he was about to ask, he saw Mu Ying wink at him quickly.
"Uncle Mu Quan, don't worry, Sister Mu Yun and I will definitely be safe, but you, remember to take the pill on time to regulate your body!"
Mu Ying came over with a stubble, Mu Quan blinked in hindsight, and clutched the small note tightly, "Uncle knows......"
"Alright, alright, it's not too early." The Ji family master interrupted Mu Quan's words impatiently, "It's time to send the players into the secret realm." ”
"You have to remember that you can only stay in the secret realm for three days at most, and when the time comes, whether you find the treasure you like or not, it will be automatically ejected."
While speaking, the head of the Ji family asked Mu Quan to go down.
Immediately after, the Ji Family Master, the Xia Family Master, and Mu Peng all mobilized their spiritual power and injected energy into the teleportation array.
Seeing a flash of golden light in the teleportation array, Mu Ying suddenly grabbed her wrist in order to be teleported to the same place as Mu Yun, and the next moment, the ten people on the teleportation array disappeared in place in an instant.
And just as the golden light was about to disappear, everyone didn't notice that there were several streamers that were so fast that people couldn't see clearly, and they took a 'hitchhike'.
The speed of the teleportation array was very fast, almost in the blink of an eye, and Mu Ying and Mu Yun felt that their feet were on the ground again.
"Hmm...... It's so hot......" There was a suffocating heat wave, Mu Ying let go of Mu Yun's wrist and looked around.
It is also a dry desert, but the desert here is full of stones of different sizes and shapes.
"I finally understand that there are not many stones in the stone city, but why is it called the stone city, it turns out that the stones are all in this grotto secret realm!"
Mu Ying sighed silently, and after saying it for such a short time, she couldn't help but dry her mouth, which showed that the environment of this secret realm was much worse than outside.
Mu Ying took some water from the Xuanming Divine Spring of the Xuan Shen Illusion Device, drank it thoroughly, and instantly felt a lot more comfortable.
"Sister Muyun, you can also drink two sips to quench your thirst!" Mu Ying generously handed over the water bag.
Mu Yun didn't answer, she was raising her forehead covered with fine beads of sweat, looking around, her brows were also tightly wrinkled.
"No, this secret realm seems to be a little strange......"
