Strange Occurrence

Zhao Xuan's low shout instantly brought the two arguing men to a halt.

"There's movement."

Zhao Xuan suddenly looked in one direction, where several powerful fluctuations of Soul Power were coming from.

"What's going on?"

Seeing Zhao Xuan's grave expression, the Grandmaster stopped arguing with Dean Flender and asked seriously.

Flender and the other teachers immediately became alert and prepared to summon their martial souls.

Zhao Xuan hurriedly stopped them. "Don't move. I'll help conceal your auras first."

The teachers nodded. Though the little monsters had no idea what was happening, they also grew wary. Zhao Xuan released his divine sense and used his Computer Spirit to simulate the surrounding auras, blending the group perfectly into their environment.

A strange glint flashed through the Grandmaster's eyes, but he did not ask anything at the moment.

Before long, sounds came from the direction Zhao Xuan had been watching. Flender and Zhao Wuji also sensed the fluctuations of Soul Power.

"At least Soul Sages?!"

The two exchanged glances, each seeing the shock in the other's eyes. Since when had Soul Sages become so common? Or were there really so many Soul Sages in Heaven Dou City that one could run into them anywhere?!

Since the targets were already nearby, Flender and Zhao Wuji, as Soul Sages themselves, were the first to sense those auras. Every one of them belonged to a Soul Sage.

The group hid beneath the bushes in the forest. Those figures were still some distance away, and with Zhao Xuan concealing their auras, they did not notice them at all.

It looked like a pursuit. Two somewhat bedraggled figures were fleeing ahead, while five black-robed figures chased closely behind them.

They came quickly and left just as quickly, soon vanishing from sight.

Only after they had gone far away
