"How did it go?" Lumine immediately asked when Shen Fei returned to the tent after ending his call with Cyno.
"Don't worry. I've already told Cyno about it. You all know what he's capable of. I'm sure he'll resolve this soon."
Although Cyno usually liked playing cards and telling bad jokes, there was no denying that, as the General Mahamatra, he held tremendous prestige within the Akademiya.
"That's good. How could someone be so awful as to plagiarize another person's research?" Paimon looked furious. She absolutely hated that sort of behavior.
"Don't tell them yet. Cyno should contact him once he's resolved things."
"What are you talking about?" Just then, Marani returned from patrolling the surrounding area.
"Nothing much. We were just discussing the Sumeru Akademiya. All right, you should get some rest."
With that, Shen Fei left the tent and headed for another one nearby. There were three tents in total: Wiland and Kaja shared one, Lumine, Paimon, and Marani shared another, while Shen Fei had one to himself.
Although Shen Fei and Lumine had better options—whether the motorhome or the Serenitea Pot, both of which would let them live comfortably in the wilderness—this was Marani's guided expedition after all. After discussing it, they decided not to bring those things out.
Shen Fei had made quite a few Serenitea Pots in his spare time and upgraded them with the Grand Refinement Technique. By Fang Han's classification of time, the pots he made were all low-grade Dao artifacts. Of course, that was merely one way of putting it; in truth, he had also incorporated the artifact-refining techniques from the Devouring world.
He intended to give those Serenitea Pots away in the future. Compared to spatial rings, they had a unique advantage: their interiors could be arranged however their owners liked.
