My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Chapter 172: Winning The Flags

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lonemoon focused on the crystal in front of him. The crystal revealed everything that was happening inside the mystic realm. There were spells cast on each flag, which allowed the various emperors on the viewing platform to clearly see where each of them were located.

WIthin an hour, most of the ten array flags had already been found. Only two or three remained hidden in the crystal.

Lonemoon instinctively looked for the position of the disciples from his sect.

Feng Ying had the system. It became obvious that the Earth Immortals group were doing very well at remaining indifferent. What’s more, the place that they chose to rest was near the entrance. It was unlikely that any of the array flags were located at the entrance. That was why most people went deeper into the mystic realm to find the flags and few turned back toward the entrance. Immediately, the entrance became the safest place. One or two would appear here and there, but none of them posed much of a threat.

Just as they guessed, the immortals that went in stuck with the other immortals from their own countries in the beginning. But there were only ten flags found, and as time went by, they began to part ways. More and more people got eliminated so that the remaining people who stuck together were in groups of two or three. Ten flags had already been found by then.

Just as most people carefully guarded the array flags and waited for the competition to end, the disciples of Invincible Sect who had been resting for almost four hours by then began to take action. Without a second thought, they charged toward the group that possessed a flag and was closest to them. They had about three people. Ten people against three – it was obvious who had the upper hand. They successfully obtained the array flag. It was even easier as they travelled deeper into the mystic realm.

With the map that the system provided, they could locate groups that were even supposedly well-hidden. They swept nearly all the flags. By the time people discovered their strategy and attempted to band back together, it was too late. The mystic realm was too big. It was easy to separate, but very difficult to gather back together. Apart from the system which managed to hack into the view of the Celestial Emperor, everybody else had difficulty locating one another.

The various emperors were at first only concerned with the Stygian Immortal and Mystic Immortal groups. Later, they became shocked to find that the array flags in the Earth Immortal group were starting to gather. First, it was two flags, then three... four... five... At last, half the flags were gathered together, and the number of flags was growing.

They began to study the team that only had ten people very closely and found that most of the magic was being done by the two people right at the front. The others behind were employing very little sorcery and were only using their limbs. They could not help but begin guessing.. Could the remaining eight all be sword immortals? The people who were viewing did not mind this; sword immortals were not uncommon. But they were merely Earth Immortals afterall — the sword Qi around their bodies should not be that strong.

Then... they met a team that had more than ten people. The size of the ten-man group no longer gave them the upper hand. The other group surrounded them very quickly, and the two immortals who initially took the lead began to retreat slowly. The various emperors heaved a sigh of relief. It looked like this was as far as that ten-man group would go.

Before their eyes, they saw the array flags being snatched away after a long, hard struggle. But the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

Eh, why are those two leaders hiding at the back? Are they going to leave the group?

Eh, why did the eight people throw their weapons away?

Eh, why is the immortal Qi around their bodies getting stronger?

Eh, why is it that the girls who looked so gentle now look like musclemen?

Eh, why does sorcery have no effect on their bodies at all?

Eh, how could they destroy the other group’s immortal weapons with just one blow?

Eh, it was fine that they crushed the opponents’ talismans and threw them out of the game – why were they throwing people out of the entrance? And more importantly... they really... really were throwing people right out of the entrance!

The people watching the battle were completely shocked. It was not until the eight people plucked each of their opponents like radishes and threw them out of the battlefield that they realised the answer to all of the questions in their heads.

These people are not sword immortals... they... they are... body cultivators!

There are actually body cultivators within the immortal realm. They ascended to immortality! They’re alive! And they have physical forms!

“Quick, look at the Golden Immortal mystic realm!” Someone shouted.

Everyone turned to look at the crystal which revealed what was going on in the Golden Immortal mystic realm. They saw a very similar thing happening. Inside the Golden Immortal mystic realm, the same performance was going on, except there were only half the people fighting – only five of them. It was obvious, though, that they were more cruel than those in the Earth Immortal group.

It was especially so for the immortal in the center, who looked like the weakest one. After she transformed, she became bigger and stronger than anyone else. There seemed to be several layers of muscle on her body – it was clear as day. With one punch, she managed to hit five or six immortals until they became breathless. Her skill could beat even Mystic Immortals, much less Golden Immortals.

The more people saw, the more curious they became. They are all body cultivators! Where did they come from? They were all new faces – nobody could figure out which country they came from.

Six hours went by just like that. The competition was coming to an end. Nine out of ten flags in the Earth Immortal Group were already in the hands of Feng Ying’s group. Moreover, they were fighting for the last one. Over at the Golden Immortal Group, Yu Hong had fewer people. What’s more, they did not have the assistance of the system. They only had three maps, but they took a lot of effort to obtain those three.

At the Earth Immortal group, half of the immortals who had not yet been eliminated were all gathered together. Perhaps it was because there was only one flag remaining. Moreover, the body cultivators were getting tired after about an hour of fighting. They used a lot more effort to obtain the last flag.

“Junior Sister Qi, this is for you!” A female disciple obtained the flag and handed it over to Qi Chengyu, who was standing behind her. It was the last flag. A few of the disciples could not contain their excitement. They did not expect that things would go this smoothly – they really got the top ten positions in the Earth Immortal group. The competition was almost over and their spots were nearly confirmed!

Qi Chengyu excitedly reached out for the flag.

Suddenly, a figure flashed past them. The female disciple found her hand empty. The flag was now with a girl in pink robes.

The girl was grinning widely. In an innocent tone, she said, “Big Sisters.. Since you have so many flags. Why don’t I take the last one?”

Qi Chengyu frowned, and looked cautiously at the girl, who did not look in the least bit threatened. How could they not have realised that she was nearby? It was either that this girl was of too high a cultivation level, or she had some sort of special weapon on her.

“Fellow Immortal, this is a competition. Of course, the flag ends up with whoever is most capable. It would be difficult for us to let you have it!”

“Pfft!” The girl tutted. “How stingy. You already have nine flags. How about you give me the last one?”

“Fellow Immortal, you do like to joke!” Qi Chengyu laughed mirthlessly. She was angered by the girl’s matter-of-fact tone. “We have nothing to do with you.” Why would we let you have the flag?

“My name is Hui Ling. I am Celestial Emperor Chen Ge’s disciple. Do you know me now?” She proudly asked.

The disciples’ expressions darkened. Feng Ying stepped forward. “Stop talking nonsense with her. We’re here to compete, not to suck up to the Celestial Emperor. She snatched the flag from us. It’s time to see if she has the ability to get away with it.”

Once he finished speaking, he drew his immortal sword and charged at her. Without hesitation, the other disciples followed closely behind him.
