In the densely forested area with overlapping mountain ranges, disciples of Leiyun Academy in groups of three or five have all turned into the most diligent cleaners. Everyone is desperately searching. Rocks, mountains, vegetation, broken branches and fallen leaves. As long as it is a place where things can be hidden, they are all targets of their search.
During the search, everyone is likely to cross paths with each other. But at this moment, everyone's minds are focused on finding the token keepsakes. Even if acquaintances meet, they don't have the mood to exchange a few words.
Everyone dreams of becoming the ultimate winner of this grand competition. But as time passes, everyone realizes one thing. That is, Feng Qiangu has hidden those token keepsakes so thoroughly that there is no trace to be found. Many people have searched for half a day, but still haven't seen what the so-called token keepsakes look like.
Of course, it is not excluded that someone has already found a token keepsake. But no matter who it is, obviously it is impossible to show off everywhere after obtaining the token keepsake for fear that the world will not be in chaos. So, even if someone has found a token keepsake, not everyone can know about it.
In the dense forest, Yun Xiao is advancing alone at a leisurely pace. Different from others, his pace is very slow and he almost doesn't search everywhere. Looking at his posture, it seems that he is just strolling around in Jinshi Mountain.
Some disciples passing by will subconsciously cast a contemptuous look at him when they see his performance, as if mocking his lack of initiative. And in response to this, he doesn't bother to pay attention and still walks slowly forward on his own.
"That academy dean is really something. Just hiding something, why hide it so secretly? It's already been half a day, and I haven't even seen a single hair of a token keepsake."
Walking forward all the way, Yun Xiao is simply in awe of the dean of Leiyun Academy. Speaking of which, he originally thought that with his familiarity with the mountains and forests and the assistance of his unparalleled spiritual power, finding some token keepsakes would be a piece of cake. But after walking all this way, he realizes that the situation is not as simple as he thought.
That academy dean is clearly trying to make things difficult for them. His spiritual power has been released within a radius of a hundred meters centered on himself. But after searching for so long, even his spiritual power hasn't found a single trace.
You know, spiritual power is omnipresent. If there is a token keepsake within the range of his spiritual power exploration, then it will definitely not escape his perception.
Obviously, in the past half a day, there is no token keepsake within the area where his spiritual power has passed.
"This reward for this grand competition is really too generous. If I can get the first place, I will have two hundred pure yuan pills and ten thousand-year rare treasures to assist in cultivation. At that time, my strength will definitely be greatly improved and I should be able to rank extremely high among the younger generation of Leiyun Academy."
While searching everywhere, he has been thinking about the ranking rewards of this grand competition.
Seriously, after learning about the rewards of this grand competition, he is simply extremely envious of the first place in the grand competition. From the bottom of his heart, he hopes that he can find the most token keepsakes and thus obtain those rewards.
But then again, the first place in the grand competition is really too conspicuous. Whether he really wants to stand out like this, he is still a bit hesitant in his heart.
Too much attention brings trouble. If he really gets the first place in the grand competition, then from now on, it will be impossible for him to keep a low profile. Even because of such a ranking, he will attract a lot of trouble. These situations, he has to consider.
Of course, it is not easy to get this first place. Although he has the assistance of spiritual power and has an extremely obvious advantage, in the end, he is all alone. Compared with those powerful small teams, he is already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
He knows in his heart that although he is currently in a powerful team, no matter how many token keepsakes the other four people find, they will definitely not give him one. So, saying that he is all alone is simply extremely appropriate.
"I wonder if those four guys have found a token keepsake. If they have found one, at least let me see what the so-called token keepsake looks like."
After half a day without any harvest, he is also secretly a bit anxious. After all, if he can't find token keepsakes all the time, it means that his spiritual power is not useful. And if spiritual power is not useful, then his wish to get the first place is simply out of the question.
"Um? Something's wrong?"
Just at this moment, Yun Xiao, who was advancing, suddenly raised his eyebrows. Immediately, his gaze sharply looked up towards his left front. There, a thick ancient tree was swayed by a gentle breeze, making rustling sounds. But these are not what he is concerned about. What he is concerned about is a nest in the branches of the ancient tree.
This is an ordinary bird's nest. The nest is not big and seems to have been abandoned for a long time. But when his spiritual power swept over this nest, he found something unusual.
Looking around, he found that there was no one nearby. Then, he stomped his foot and in a few leaps, he came to the crown of the ancient tree and just stood still next to the bird's nest.
"This is......"
As he stood still, within his sight, a small black plaque was quietly lying in the nest. This plaque is about the size of a thumb. There are four small red characters engraved on it - token keepsake!
"Good. I was just thinking about what the token keepsake looks like. I didn't expect to see it so soon."
Taking the small plaque in the nest in his hand, Yun Xiao's face showed a delighted smile. He knows that his crazy token-collecting mode is about to begin. Because facts have proved that his spiritual power is definitely the best means to find token keepsakes. There is no need to doubt it at all.
"That academy dean is really cunning. He actually hid the token keepsake in a tree. There are countless trees in Jinshi Mountain. Who would have thought that the token keepsake would be placed on a tree?"
Shaking his head, he has some complaints about the way the academy dean hid the token. But then again, this token keepsake is placed in a bird's nest. Speaking of which, it is not completely without a trace. And this depends on whether everyone's observation is detailed. Maybe, if someone finds this bird's nest, they will really climb up the tree to take a look.
"Hehe. The first token is in hand. Finally, this first step has been taken."
Jumping down from the tree crown, he put the first token he obtained into his bosom. In fact, it is put into the space ring hanging on his chest. Because only by putting it there can this token keepsake be completely impossible to be lost.
Such a treasure as a space ring is definitely not something that anyone can afford. Judging from his observation, among the many disciples of Leiyun Academy, those who can wear a space ring can be counted on one hand. Even most of the elders of Leiyun Academy don't have such a treasure.
Of course, even for those who have a space ring, their space rings will definitely not have too much space. It is even possible that just a few swords will fill it up. It is definitely not comparable to the space inside his space ring.
Judging from what Yun Jin said when he left, his space ring is a real treasure. Even the lord of Leiyun Prefecture will be tempted to snatch it. This shows how high the grade of this space ring is.
"It seems that my luck is still good. If I can find a token keepsake every day, then in a month's time, I can at least find thirty. With a quantity of thirty, it should be able to rank first, right?"
Putting the token keepsake away, Yun Xiao is in an extremely good mood.
He can see that these one thousand token keepsakes are definitely all hidden very deeply and are not so easy to find. If he can find thirty, at least he should be able to rank at the forefront.
"Continue. Let me see where all the other token keepsakes are hidden!"
He quickened his pace and invisibly increased his search speed. And in his heart, he is also becoming more and more determined to get the first place. After all, with such an obvious advantage, if he doesn't get this first place, it will simply be a waste of this grand competition format......
