"Lin Shidi is not to be trifled with!"
They foolishly believed that Lin Qiubai would not be able to deal with them, but reality gave them a harsh slap in the face.
The seven rascals were completely remorseful.
If they could do it all over again, they would never entertain any malicious thoughts about trying to take advantage of Fortune.
Not even to stir up trouble.
"Alas, how could we have been so foolish? Lin Qiubai is a walking Fortune. We should have done everything to please him. Why did we lose our minds and offend him?"
At this moment, the Seven Rascals realized their mistakes and lamented repeatedly.
They had tried to gain small advantages but ended up suffering great losses.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Lin Shidi's demeanor and expression as he approached the Formation indicated that he was already furious to a certain extent.
At this point, nothing could be said to change the situation.
They had to be careful in making amends and pay three times the amount of Cloud Energy if they wanted even a glimmer of hope for Lin Shidi's forgiveness.
With this in mind, the seven waited quietly outside the Formation.
However, upon seeing their fellow disciples, Senior Brother Lin, enjoying the benefits of Triple Insight Amplification inside the formation, their hearts ached with pain.
Triple Insight Amplification, how rare it is! Yet everyone else had Fortune, while they alone did not!
The feeling of being left behind was excruciating for them.
But what could be done?
One reaps what one sows.
...
Time passed slowly like a fleeting horse.
Lin Qiubai was surrounded by everyone, sitting cross-legged on a mat, with glowing musical notes floating between his fingers. These notes merged into the void, creating delicate ripples in the surrounding space.
Within those ripples contained a profound energy capable of cleansing the heart and bringing about Triple Insight Amplification.
"This..."
The representatives of the Upperclassmen from the Sect landed on Unnamed Lake aboard the Three-Legged Crow, all of them wide-eyed in astonishment.
As the vanguard to challenge the new students, they had come to gather intelligence on the enemy and provoke a reaction, stirring up indignation among the newcomers.
After all, there was a greater sense of accomplishment in beating down those who resisted fiercely.
Unexpectedly, they witnessed a scene that left them unable to calm down for a long time.
Nearly two hundred Creation Realm elders were surrounding Lin Qiubai like stars encircling the moon!
Outside the formation stood seven elders, and judging by their expressions, they seemed to be very respectful?!
The Upperclassmen representatives were taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to bow in greeting.
"Greetings to all the Shishu."
"Greetings to all the Shishu."
They were respectful on the surface, but deep down, a thick layer of doubt began to rise.
Why had these Shishu suddenly gathered at Unnamed Lake?
Earlier, it seemed that these seven Shishu were discussing strange topics, like not daring to provoke Lin Qiubai and adopting a lower posture.
The representatives of Upperclassman were already stunned by just hearing snippets of their conversation.
Lin Qiubai was actually that terrifying?!
Even the Shishu from Creation Realm had to treat him with caution?
What kind of ability was that?!
With an unbalanced mindset, they were filled with suspicion as they looked at Lin Qiubai, who was sitting cross-legged on a mat inside the Formation, playing the zither. Their expressions gradually grew serious.
Setting aside combat power for now.
Just based on Lin Qiubai's ability to create astonishing events wherever he went, this exaggerated talent alone was enough for them to be wary.
"Do not make noise. Stand quietly and wait."
Upon hearing this, the group of Upperclassman representatives immediately fell silent, even their shocked expressions slowly receding.
But in their hearts, they felt even more panicked.
A whole hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Of course, to a group of Creation Realm Senior Brother Lin, that hour felt like barely three seconds.
Just when they were still savoring the moment, it suddenly came to an end...
Zhou Senior Brother looked disappointed. He was on the verge of grasping the key to that fleeting insight.
But Lin Qiubai abruptly stopped playing the guqin.
Without the Triple Insight Amplification, Zhou Senior Brother scratched his head in frustration, unable to comprehend that puzzling segment no matter how hard he tried.
"Lin Shidi..."
Zhou Senior Brother's tone was filled with pleading.
However, Lin Qiubai maintained a serious expression, leisurely putting away the guqin under the resentful gazes of the Senior Brothers.
So shamelessly serious.
So hypocritically dignified.
"Lin Shidi, is it really over after just one hour?"
The Senior Brothers were still immersed in their state of enlightenment, dazed and somewhat incredulous.
"Naturally, not a minute more, not a second less."
Lin Qiubai dismissed the Formation and waved his sleeve. He was ready to set off with Yuan Chonghuan and the other six towards Qin Huang Heavenly Palace.
"Can't we extend it for another hour? Lin Shidi, please let us continue for another hour!"
This group of martial enthusiasts had developed a strong desire for the Triple Insight Amplification.
Therefore, disregarding their dignity, they pleaded earnestly.
One by one, they presented Jade Tokens in front of Lin Qiubai, hoping that as long as Lin Qiubai was willing to play a tune on the zither, they would be willing to exhaust their savings and tirelessly run around to complete their tasks in the future.
"Junior Brother Lin?"
The senior brothers looked at Lin Qiubai with eager expressions.
"No, playing the zither for an hour is exhausting. Moreover, I have already been working hard for two hours before this. Today, I am already mentally drained; I will come again another day."
Upon hearing this, the eager expressions of the senior brothers intensified.
But what could they do?
Since Junior Brother Lin had said so, they could only indulge him!
"Alright then, Junior Brother Lin, here is my communication stone. You must remember to notify me in advance!"
The first senior brother handed over his communication stone, and the others quickly followed suit. After all, the Triple Insight Amplification was too precious.
That one hour had already benefited them greatly; although it did not increase their cultivation level, their understanding of the Realm and Martial Arts had significantly improved.
Over time, they would surely achieve tremendous progress!
"Alright, everyone disperse; there’s nothing more for today."
Lin Qiubai waved his hand and was the first to leave the small courtyard. He whistled, and a Three-Legged Crow landed in front of him.
"Wait, Lin Shidi!"
The Seven Rascals definitely need to apologize properly.
Otherwise, they won't be able to attend tomorrow's Celestial Music event, and they'll have nowhere to cry.
Lin Qiubai turned around indifferently; of course, he wouldn't show any good face to these people who disrupted his event.
"What is it?"
"Lin Shidi, we sincerely apologize to you. Here are six thousand Cloud Energy, plus an extra two thousand as a small token of respect..."
The seven of them presented their Identity Jade Tokens.
Fifty-six thousand Cloud Energy is quite a substantial amount.
It's even more generous than the reward for completing a Counter-Strike Mission!
Lin Qiubai smiled meaningfully. Eight thousand Cloud Energy is actually enough for them to enjoy for four hours.
But these seven insisted on causing trouble.
Now they've gotten themselves into a bind.
Lin Qiubai naturally wouldn't feel sorry for them; they had brought their heads forward, and it would be unreasonable not to take a slice.
With that in mind, he skillfully took away the fifty-six thousand Cloud Energy.
"This matter ends here."
Upon hearing Lin Qiubai's emotionless words, the seven Transcendents of Creation felt no anger at all; instead, they breathed a sigh of relief and admired Lin Shidi's broad-mindedness!
Seeing this scene, the Upperclassmen retreated. They no longer dared to act recklessly.
This was a situation where the Creation Realm elders were chatting and laughing! They even managed to make several elders apologize without any hint of anger!
Even if they had a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble anymore.
They quickly climbed onto the Three-Legged Roc and fled in a hurry.
Lin Qiubai did not pay attention to these Upperclassmen but turned to Yuan Chonghuan and the others.
"Let's go to the Qin Emperor's Heavenly Palace!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded heavily, feeling a surge of excitement.
It gave them the illusion that their cultivation was skyrocketing.
