Luo Tong

Chapter 28 Luo Tong (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Collection)

The spiritual energy absorbed into his void apertures was nearing saturation.

Mu Yuan knew he was about to condense his third Dragon Elephant phantom.

The cultivation techniques and spiritual arts of the Great Thousand World refined spiritual energy into spiritual power to break through realms.

However, the core of the God Elephant Suppressing Prison Force was the Dragon Elephant phantom.

Each additional Dragon Elephant phantom condensed made his spiritual power more profound.

Once he condensed the third Dragon Elephant phantom, his cultivation would officially advance to the mid-Spiritual Movement Realm.

With this thought, Mu Yuan no longer felt distracted. He poured all his focus into his cultivation, aiming to break through to the mid-Spiritual Movement Realm today.

Seeing Mu Yuan, Mu Chen, and the others immediately enter their cultivation states, Tang Qian'er pouted slightly before closing her eyes and beginning her own training.

However, their cultivation didn't last long before it was interrupted by an unpleasant laugh.

"Heh heh, the two young domain lords of the Mu Region are truly overbearing!"

Mu Chen and the others opened their eyes to see a figure slowly approaching. He appeared to be around eighteen years old, with slightly sunken eye sockets and thin lips that exuded a hint of coldness.

Beside him stood Jiang Li, who had been defeated earlier in a sorry state.

Jiang Li stared at them with a face as dark as water, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"They sent an elder after beating up the junior! This plot is so cliché."

Mu Chen suddenly understood.

It was clear that Jiang Li had been instigating this from behind the scenes.

"Luo Tong?"

Tang Qian'er frowned as she looked at the person.

"Luo Tong?"

Mu Chen's brow twitched. He was no stranger to this name.

This was because Luo Tong's father was also a domain lord in the Northern Spiritual Territory.

Although Luo Tong had turned eighteen last year, his current strength was still stuck at the late-Spiritual Movement Realm.

This meant he had already lost his chance to enter the Five Great Academies.

And this also meant that Luo Tong was exactly the kind of person Tang Qian'er had referred to as a "veteran" – the most troublesome kind.

"Mu Chen, it's really been a long time."

Luo Tong walked up to Mu Chen and grinned, but it wasn't a friendly smile. They had known each other for a long time, but they never really saw eye to eye.

"Are you here to back him up?"

Mu Chen pointed at Jiang Li.

"How could I dare? You're a genius who's qualified for the Spiritual Road."

Luo Tong sneered, his feigned surprise laced with unconcealed jealousy.

When he heard that Mu Chen had qualified for the Spiritual Road, his eyes had turned red with envy.

Mu Chen withdrew his gaze, too lazy to bother with this pathetic fellow consumed by jealousy. Compared to Liu Mu Bai, this Luo Tong really wasn't much.

However, Mu Yuan, who had been sitting on his cushion cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Luo Tong and said coldly, without any pleasantries:

"If you don't dare, then scram. Don't act so passive-aggressive."

The spiritual energy in his third void aperture was almost saturated. This guy had interrupted his cultivation the moment he arrived, which made him extremely annoyed.

Luo Tong glanced at Mu Yuan and said coldly:

"Mu Yuan, if you're just going to cower in the corner, then shut your mouth and stop embarrassing yourself."

Back then, the Mu Region had produced Mu Chen, and also Mu Yuan, a legendary waste who couldn't sense spiritual energy for three years.

This contrast had provided Luo Tong with some solace, making him feel much better.

But then, Mu Yuan had miraculously sensed spiritual energy recently, rising like a legend. With his cultivation at the early-Spiritual Movement Realm, he had defeated Liu Yang and forcefully entered the Heaven Tier.

Meanwhile, Luo Tong, who was already past eighteen, had still not reached the Spirit Wheel Realm, which dashed his hopes of entering the Five Great Academies.

And when he thought of Mu Yuan, with his current legendary cultivation speed, entering the Five Great Academies shouldn't be difficult. This undoubtedly fueled his jealousy.

Mu Chen was one thing, but why should Mu Yuan, the former legendary waste, rise like a legend?

Mu Yuan heard Luo Tong's words and his brow twitched. Then, as if mocking himself, he thought, cowering in the corner?

He really couldn't stand it.

"What? Not convinced? Want to fight me?"

Luo Tong sneered back.

Although Mu Yuan could unleash power equivalent to the mid-Spiritual Movement Realm, Luo Tong himself was at the late-Spiritual Movement Realm, so he naturally wasn't afraid of Mu Yuan.

"You're in the late-Spiritual Movement Realm, and you want to fight me? If you want to humiliate yourself, I can oblige."

Mu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, speaking calmly.

"In the fight with Liu Yang, Mu Yuan intentionally held back. He knew his limits weren't at the mid-Spiritual Movement Realm."

"Huh?"

The surrounding students erupted in a clamor upon hearing Mu Yuan's words.

Following that, astonished gazes landed on him.

No one had expected Mu Yuan to actively seek out Luo Tong for a spar.

"This isn't fun."

Luo Tong thought Mu Yuan was deliberately mimicking his tone just to mock him.

"I always keep my word. If you don't mind the embarrassment, I certainly do."

Mu Yuan continued speaking, arrogant and confident. He stood with his hands behind his back, peerless in his pride, not even sparing Luo Tong a glance.

Luo Tong's face turned ashen at Mu Yuan's taunt, but he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. He immediately grinned coldly and said:

"Since you have this request, as a senior, I naturally must agree."

As the last word fell, the cold glint in Luo Tong's eyes was no longer concealed. Spiritual energy slowly coiled around his body, emitting a powerful fluctuation.

Seeing this, the surrounding students quickly retreated a step, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.

Some students, like Jiang Li, even found it amusing.

"Isn't this a case of refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit?"

"Now it's great. I don't see how Mu Yuan can get out of this today."

This was because everyone knew what Luo Tong represented.

"Luo Tong, what are you doing?!"

However, at this moment, a deep voice sounded from not far away.

Everyone looked over and saw a rather burly figure striding over, then standing in front of Luo Tong.

"Mo Ling, aren't you meddling a bit too much?"

Luo Tong frowned as he looked at the burly youth before him.

The person before him was a celebrity in the Northern Spiritual Academy, ranked just below Liu Mu Bai of the West Courtyard Heaven Tier on the main roster. He was currently in the late Spiritual Movement Realm and had a high chance of breaking through to the Spirit Wheel Realm within half a year.

The most important point was that this person was not yet eighteen years old.

In other words, once he broke through to the Spirit Wheel Realm, he would also gain the qualification to enter the Five Great Academies.

He was a key talent being cultivated by the Northern Spiritual Academy.

"Master Mo will be here any moment. If you want to continue causing trouble here, you'll face the consequences," Mo Ling said with a frown.

Luo Tong's expression was unpleasant, but he also knew that Mo Ling wasn't afraid of him. He could only grit his teeth resentfully and withdraw the spiritual energy from his body.

"You're lucky today."

Luo Tong gestured with his fist towards Mu Yuan before unhappily finding a spot to sit down.

Seeing Luo Tong leave, Mo Ling then turned to Mu Yuan and the others, asking with a smile:

"Are you all alright?"

"What a shame."

Mu Yuan sighed.

Mo Ling: "..."

Mu Chen could only smile and explain:

"Uh, Brother Yuan is just like that. Please don't mind him."
