Chapter 381
“Now that I am the Master of the Mystic Realm, what can I do?” Yuan asked them.
“Literally anything you want.” Grandpa Lan said.
“The Mystic Realm itself is a treasure, and as its master, you’re like its god. If you desire, you can even change the landscapes in this world.”
“Hmm…”
After pondering for a moment, Yuan spoke, “I think I want to open up the Mystic Realm, allowing the natives of this world to go outside.”
“What? Really?” Grandpa Lan looked at him with wide eyes.
Yuan nodded and said, “You told me that the natives of this world dislike outsiders because of envy, right? That they’re all stuck inside this world because of their ancestors’ decision.”
“If that’s the case, I would like to free them.”
As someone who loved to go on adventures and visit new places, Yuan pitied these Mystic Realm natives that are secluded inside this world like birds in a cage.
He then turned to look at Lan Yingying and said, “You also told me that you’re interested in the outside world, right? If I open the Mystic Realm, you’ll be able to go outside and experience it for yourself.”
After a moment of silence. Grandpa Lan said, “If that’s your decision, you may do as you please.”
Yuan nodded, and he proceeded to ask, “How do I open up the Mystic Realm, though? And before I do that, can I forcefully remove people from the Mystic Realm? I would like to disqualify the other participants if I could in this manner.”
Wang Xiuying couldn’t help but chuckle after hearing his words.
“Yes, you can remove anyone you want. Just command the Mystic Realm to do so.” Grandpa Lan said.
“How do I do that?”
“Just tell it to do so like you’re speaking to someone.”
“Really? Does it really work like that?” Yuan mumbled.
After taking a deep breath, Yuan said loudly, “Mystic Realm, can you kick out everyone who doesn’t belong in this world? Ah, but don’t kick out Wang Xiuying who’s with me now.”
Ding!
[Command acknowledged!]
[All outsiders shall be removed from the Mystic Realm]
A moment after Yuan’s command, every single participant besides Wang Xiuying was suddenly teleported outside of the Mystic Realm, shocking everybody outside.
“What?! Why am I outside the Mystic Realm?! Has a month passed already?!” One of the participants exclaimed in a puzzled manner.
“Impossible! We should’ve had another two weeks inside!” Another one said.
“Then why are we all out here?! What’s going to happen now?”
Senior Nie felt a headache incoming after seeing this phenomenon.
“Just what in heaven’s name happened? Why did all of the participants suddenly get kicked out of the Mystic Realm?” One of the crystal balls spoke.
“Not everyone.” Senior Nie said, and he continued, “There are two people missing… That genius from the Dragon Essence Temple and that girl from Medicine Valley.”
Senior Nie remembered all of the participants before they went inside, so he knew who was still inside the Mystic Realm.
“What should we do now? This year’s Mystic Realm is a complete bust.”
“Hmmm…”
After a moment of silence, Senior Nie said, “Let’s wait until everyone comes out of the Mystic Realm before I decide.”
Meanwhile, amongst the participants that had been forcefully teleported out of the Mystic Realm, Gao Dongya and Xue Jiye looked around with disbelief on their faces, as they had been forcefully kicked out as well.
“What the fuck is happening?!” Gao Dongya cursed out loud, as they were extremely close to reaching the Mystic Pagoda.
In fact, they were able to see the Mystic Pagoda in the distance right before getting kicked out of the Mystic Realm!
“This is why I said we should hunt some magical beasts for points! Look at us now! Besides increasing our cultivation base, we don’t have any other points! If our rank is screwed up because of that, the Sect Master will kill us!” Xue Jiye complained to him.
Gao Dongya would normally have a comeback for her complaints but he was speechless this time, as it was true that they didn’t have many points.
“Where is Disciple Yuan? I don’t see him out here.” Xue Jiye suddenly realized that he wasn’t with them.
“Perhaps he was disqualified before us.” Gao Dongya said.
“Don’t jinx it!” Xue Jiye quickly said.
Sometime later, Senior Nie said to them, “Everyone that just got kicked out of the Mystic Realm, you may return to your sect for now. I will announce the results once everyone is out.”
“What? Does this mean there are still people inside the Mystic Realm? Why were we kicked out? Who decided that?” The disqualified participants were speechless.
Many minutes later, once the participants returned to their sects, Long Yijun stared at Gao Dongya and Xue Jiye with a deep frown on his face, yet he didn’t look angry at all.
“I’m sorry, Sect Master. We have failed you.” Gao Dongya said with his head lowered.
“I’m sorry, Sect Master.” Xue Jiye also apologized.
After a moment of silence, Long Yijun spoke, “Don’t worry about it too much. Although I am also upset about the results, this situation was completely unexpected and out of control. Hopefully, Disciple Yuan, who is still inside the Mystic Realm, won’t disappoint us.”
“What? Disciple Yuan is still inside?” Gao Dongya was surprised to hear this.
“Where was he this entire time? He was separated from us the moment we went inside.” Xue Jiye said.
“I know. However, I don’t know why he was separated from you two or where he went. All I know is that he’s still safe and sound inside the Mystic Realm. In fact, he even managed to open the Mystic Pagoda.” Long Yijun revealed to them.
“What?! He opened the Mystic Pagoda?! How?!” Gao Dongya exclaimed in a shocked voice, causing the other participants to look at him.
Who opened the Mystic Pagoda? The participants that were not there to witness Yuan coming outside the Mystic Pagoda were unaware of the situation. However, they would soon come to learn about everything from the others, greatly shocking them as well.
