Invincible Martial King

Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned. If he remembered correctly, in order to deal with the dangers within the Wilderness Secret Realm, the students in the learning palace would form their own small group called the Battle Team.    

However, he didn't expect Third Prince to have his own team.    

"That's right."    

"Are you surprised?" Third Prince, Yin Zhi, smiled when he saw this. He continued saying, "One of the reasons that I had said I hoped for you to join the East Branch was because I hoped that you could stand by my side after you had grown up."    

"I just didn't expect your strength to be this strong."    

"In the entire academy, it's rare to see a person with talent like yours."    

"That's why I invited you in advance to join my team."    

Liu Tie revealed a contemplative look and did not directly agree. Third Prince and Yin Zhi's invitation seemed to be to join his team, but the real meaning of it was to join his faction.    

One had to know that Third Prince and Yin Zhi were not just students of the academy, but most importantly, they were princes. Once they joined his team, they would become Third Prince and become his supporters.    

Although he had never seen the First Prince before, to be able to motivate such an outstanding student with West Campus like Yang Yuan and make almost the entire group of students bow their heads was definitely a ruthless person.    

"I know that you are more or less worried. After all, my brother has treated me as his mortal enemy. You should be able to see what happened today. It's not only related to the battle between the East and West Branch. It also covers all the conflicts between me and my brother."    

"However, I can guarantee that as long as you are willing to join my team, you will be able to obtain many resources that others would find hard to obtain. In the shortest amount of time, you will be able to raise your cultivation level to an even higher level."    

Noticing the hesitation in Lu Chen's eyes, Third Prince, Yin Zhi, unhurriedly added.    

"Third Prince, I'm not questioning your ability. Whether I join your team or your faction, what kind of resources can I get?"    

"And what makes you think you can help me reach a higher level in the shortest time possible?"    

Lu Chen's eyes flashed as he asked with a smile.    

"You're smart."    

"If I'm not wrong, the last time you searched for high quality spiritual herbs, you were in need of high quality ones. I even guessed that with your fleshly body's achievements, you would not be able to escape the help of high quality spiritual herbs."    

"It's not just the Clear Moon Merchant Guild that I have, but all of the several merchant guilds in the Imperial City are my property. As long as you are willing to stand by my side, I can use several merchant guilds to help you gather even more top grade spiritual herbs.    

"Also, other than these merchant guilds, you might not know too much about the authority granted to princes like us. Even if it's within the Dagan Academic Palace, as long as I'm willing to speak, even if you don't pass the examination, you can enter the Great Fantasy Stage to cultivate in the shortest amount of time possible."    

He believed that Lu Chen would not reject his offer. As a prince, the authority he held was not as simple as he had imagined. Even the teachers in the academy had to treat him with respect.    

"If I want to cultivate in Great Fantasy Stage, I believe that I will have the strength to qualify during the end of the month examination. As for the matter of spirit herbs, I do have a lot of needs, but that doesn't mean I'm dependent on them."    

"If it was only this price, it wouldn't have made me join your team, or even become a staunch supporter behind you." Hearing this, Lu Chen shook his head.    

If that was all, why would he go through the channels of Third Prince, Yin Zhi, if he also had a way to get it? Moreover, standing on his side now was undoubtedly challenging the First Prince's side. With that person's power and influence, he would be in a lot of trouble.    

Therefore, in order for him to make a decision, the conditions offered by Third Prince and Yin Zhi were still too little.    

"I knew that it would be hard to win over a guy like you. Who would've thought that it would be even harder than what I imagined." Seeing that, not only did Third Prince and Yin Zhi not get angry, they even burst out laughing loudly.    

"But because of this, the more valuable it is for me to win you over."    

"Since you're a frank person, I won't continue to hide it." Third Prince, Yin Zhi, smiled. Then, his face turned extremely serious as he asked seriously, "Do you know why Yang Yuan is here to cause trouble today?"    

"It's not just because my big brother ordered me to deal with him."    

"More importantly, it is because of this item."    

As his voice faded, an exquisite wooden box appeared in Third Prince and Yin Zhi's hands.    

"This is …"    

Lu Chen raised his eyebrows. This wooden box looked extremely ancient and there were complex runes on its surface. Even he couldn't see what was inside.    

"Buzz!"    

Under the command of Third Prince and Yin Zhi, the charm characters on the surface of the wooden box slowly lit up. A golden map slowly floated into appearance. It was an ancient secret map depicting the mountains and the sun and the moon.    

"This aura is …"    

Lu Chen's eyes lit up as he felt a familiar yet foreign aura from the map.    

"You probably don't know about this."    

"However, it is a map of the ancient ruins called the Mountain and River Diagram of the Sun and the Moon."    

"My elder brother has repeatedly caused trouble for me. Not only did he make things difficult for me, the most important thing he did was to obtain it."    

Third Prince, Yin Zhi's expression was solemn, he paused for a moment and continued in a low voice, "As long as you are willing to join my team, then you have the qualifications to go with me to search for this ancient ruin. You should have heard about it, right?"    

"Ancient ruins?"    

Lu Chen stared at the map in Third Prince's hand, a burning look flashing across his eyes. As the name implied, the ancient ruins were the remnants of the heavenly paradises from the ancient era.    

Even though the Sky Martial Continent was huge, there were very few ancient ruins. Most importantly, there might be some exceptionally strong primordial techniques and treasures inside, even the other Martial Monarch Level experts would find it difficult to remain indifferent to it.    

Even those super powers in the Sky Martial Continent would go crazy if they knew about the news of the Ancient Ruins. However, he did not expect that in the Dagan Dynasty, there was actually a clue about the Ancient Ruins, much less Third Prince, Yin Zhi.    

Lu Chen did not doubt its authenticity because the aura from the Mountain and River Diagram was familiar and unfamiliar. In his previous life, he had also obtained something similar, and the Eternity Chaos Arts that he was cultivating in was a Supreme Cultivation Method from an ancient ruin.
