107: Chapter 107 You couldn't possibly have outsmarted me, because I've already outsmarted you.
Tap, tap, tap—!
Fully armed soldiers patrolled within Cangyuan Town, their expressions never relaxing, and even their footsteps exuded Killing Intent.
The Three Heavenly Kings could not help but feel a sense of awe at this scene.
"With so many Genius youths, if someone were to try to break through, they'd be kicked to death, right?" Mo Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
His whispered muttering reached the ears of the two people beside him.
Xu Qingfang cast his gaze toward the firearms in the soldiers' hands, weighed it slightly in his heart, and reached the conclusion that they were invincible.
"The Weilong C4 and Tiger-Crouching Cannons here are in infinite supply, and the Tenglongs are fully modified; you had better really be able to return to the Special Service Division."
After a pause, Xu Qingfang added another sentence.
"If you surrender fast enough, you might even be able to enter prison with zero combat equipment and secure an iron rice bowl in the East District!"
He looked at the speechless Mo Yu with a playful expression.
Mo Yu curled his lips helplessly.
He was not like Yue Yun who could ignore physical damage; as a mortal, let alone hard-carrying C4, a single bullet would be enough to finish him off.
However, looking at the level of defense in Cangyuan Town, even a special existence like Yue Yun would be riddled with holes.
"Old Yue..."
Mo Yu called out to Yue Yun.
Before he could finish speaking, a sound of wind breaking came to his ears.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Pan Xuan was quick-eyed and fast-handed, landing three solid hand-chops on the heads of the Three Heavenly Kings, causing them to wince in pain.
"Teacher, I didn't say anything!"
Yue Yun complained while holding his head, receiving a disdainful glance from Pan Xuan, as if he were saying that you aren't any better either.
"You three had better behave yourselves!"
Pan Xuan repeated himself once again.
The three dared not argue with him and obediently formed a long line, handing their own luggage to the soldiers responsible for checking bags at the front, only entering the town after the inspection was complete.
"What is this?"
After the soldier checking the bags took out a sharp kitchen knife from Yue Yun's hiking backpack, he then pulled out three straight iron rods.
Pan Xuan turned his head to look at Yue Yun.
His expression was one of half-smile, as if he were watching a good show.
"This is my weapon."
Yue Yun explained quite calmly.
He retrieved the iron rods from the soldier, assembled them right there in a few quick movements, and attached the spearhead to assemble a cold iron long spear that gleamed with a biting chill.
The soldier's expression was not at all surprised.
Many people entering the Secret Realm brought things for self-defense; he had long since seen things like swords, spears, and halberds.
"Sorry, according to the regulations, you cannot bring this!"
The soldier reached out and took the cold iron long spear.
The heavy weight of the cold iron long spear caused a hint of surprise to appear on his face, and his gaze toward Yue Yun held a bit more appraisal.
Xu Qingfang spoke up with some hesitation: "Uncle, I saw on the official website that one can bring weapons into the Secret Realm. Why can't we take this iron spear in now?"
In reality, he had not looked at the Beast Tamer Association's official website; this was something he had heard from his father, Xu Tianli, and he just happened to remember it.
However, there was indeed such a regulation.
Compared to the extraordinary power possessed by a Beast Tamer, weapons were clearly much inferior, so they could naturally be brought into the Secret Realm.
The soldier's expression stiffened slightly.
His expression didn't change much, and he still explained kindly: "Adult Beast Tamers who enter the Secret Realm through regular channels can indeed carry weapons with obvious characteristics.
You are not yet adults and are entering the Secret Realm organized by your school, so you cannot carry any type of weapon."
Not only the cold iron long spear, but even the kitchen knife could not be brought.
The Three Heavenly Kings could not help but look at each other.
The corners of Pan Xuan's mouth curled up triumphantly.
As the teacher of the Three Heavenly Kings, he was quite willing to let them suffer some harmless little setbacks, and he especially liked seeing the three ignorant little brats get frustrated.
"Surrender?"
Pan Xuan teased the silent Three Heavenly Kings.
The Three Heavenly Kings said nothing as if they had resigned themselves to their fate, simply keeping their heads down and avoiding looking at Pan Xuan, trying their best to avoid eye contact.
The soldier, however, was staring at them closely.
Pan Xuan smiled with satisfaction, turned his head, and nodded to the soldier: "I am his teacher and can vouch for him. Let him take these things in!"
Pan Xuan showed his identification and took out a liability waiver that had already been written, handing it to the soldier for review.
After the soldier accepted the liability waiver, he returned the items to Yue Yun.
This little episode was thus settled.
"Phew—!"
The Three Heavenly Kings let out a long sigh of relief.
They slowly raised their deeply buried heads, revealing the bright, long-suppressed smiles on their faces.
Yue Yun looked like Secretary Gao: "Look, you're anxious again!"
Xu Qingfang raised his right hand and tapped, striking the same pose as the Master Ip meme, everything understood without words.
Mo Yu was also like the Donnie Yen meme, pointing at Pan Xuan in the same way, with a similar smile.
"I told you this move would work!"
The three no longer hid their upturned lips.
When Pan Xuan thought he had them in his grasp, he did not realize that he had already fallen into a trap and was being outsmarted by the Three Heavenly Kings.
This was the super intelligence of the top three brothers!
Pan Xuan also realized that he had been outsmarted.
He squinted his eyes to examine the three, with endless fierce light flowing in the depths of his eyes, like a hungry beast ready to devour someone.
The smiles of the three stopped abruptly.
"The weather is really nice!"
Mo Yu turned around and casually blurted out a sentence to fool him.
Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun also did not face him, shouldered their heavy hiking backpacks, and entered Cangyuan Town, leaving the lion-like angry Pan Xuan behind, leaving only their fading backs.
Pan Xuan's angry expression suddenly vanished into thin air.
He watched the backs of the three little ones with their arms around each other's shoulders and could not help but shake his head and laugh: "These three little brats!"
He nodded to the soldier in thanks, did not go to chase after the Three Heavenly Kings who had run away, but instead turned in another direction to help other students solve difficulties so that they could successfully enter the Secret Realm.
The soldier did not care where Pan Xuan went.
He also looked in the direction the Three Heavenly Kings had left, specifically looking at Xu Qingfang's back, and then subconsciously touched his own thin cheek, a trace of strangeness flashing in his eyes.
"Uncle? Am I that old!"
...
Cangyuan Town was more urbanized than imagined.
There were homestays and restaurants everywhere here, with various shops of considerable scale on both sides of the street, and the magnificent Beast Tamer Service Center formed a distinct landmark.
Rather than calling this an outpost for the Secret Realm, it was more like a unique tourist attraction.
The Three Heavenly Kings looked left and right, examining their surroundings like curious babies, without the slightest sense of tension about entering the Secret Realm.
The man and woman pulling at each other ahead caught the attention of the Three Heavenly Kings.
Mo Yu frowned and looked over: "How does that look like Xue Qin?"
"It doesn't look like her, it is her!"
Xu Qingfang rushed forward, yelled to shock everyone, and squeezed between the man and Xue Qin, separating them.
Yue Yun and Mo Yu also followed closely behind.
The three formed a solid human wall, protecting the two girls, Xue Qin and Su Lixia, behind them, not giving the man any chance to take advantage.
The man was clearly a bit surprised, and after a moment of discernment, he recognized the identities of the three: "You must be Qinqin's good friends, Xu Qingfang, Mo Yu, and Yue Yun, right?"
The Three Heavenly Kings were stunned upon hearing this.
The man introduced himself proactively: "Hello, I am Qinqin's uncle, responsible for the Pet Beast Materials docking work here in Cangyuan Town!"
