Chapter 189 Let Me Make a Contract with You
"It was the old man who entrusted you to me, asking me to form a contract with you," Feng Jiutian sighed and said calmly.
She understood Jiu Yao's feelings.
After being together for so many years, it's naturally unpleasant to suddenly open your eyes and find that person gone.
"How could he..." Jiuyao murmured, his expression manic, revealing his bestial nature.
Having seen her so many times, this was the first time Feng Jiutian had directly felt Jiuyao's bestial state, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
“He hopes that you will use your skills to roam the world, rather than stay by his side and live a mediocre life.” Feng Jiutian looked at Jiuyao seriously and said, word by word.
Jiuyao was able to cultivate into a ninth-order magical beast and transform into human form, so he naturally possessed a belief in his heart.
However, because of the old man's kindness, it was bound to the old man's side. Although it did not feel wronged, the old man still felt guilty.
Jiuyao remained silent, head bowed, not uttering a word, and sobbing softly.
At this moment, she resembled a little girl who couldn't get candy.
"You will see him again." Feng Jiutian smiled gently. "When you reach a high enough level, he will naturally see you again."
Jiuyao raised her head and looked at Feng Jiutian. At this moment, from her angle, she could only see Feng Jiutian's profile, but it was full of domineering aura that looked down on the world.
Feng Jiutian's tone was very calm, but for some reason, Jiuyao could hear an invincible determination in her tone, as if there was nothing she couldn't achieve!
Subconsciously, Jiu Yao chose to believe Feng Jiu Tian.
"I believe you. Take me to travel the continent, and one day I will see him again!"
After speaking, Jiuyao's aura began to subside, eventually returning to calm. If it weren't for the lingering ripples in the Sea of Spirits, no one would believe that this little girl could unleash such terrifying energy.
Feng Jiutian patted Jiuyao's head: "However, I cannot form a contract with you now. I believe you have already felt this before. I tried, but failed. However, even though I failed, I still benefited greatly from forming a contract with you. I admit that I really want to form a contract with you, but I promise that I will never force you before I get your permission."
Feng Jiutian knew that the Contract Master's manual he cultivated gave him the innate ability to make magical beasts submit.
Although Jiuyao is powerful, she is still a magical beast, so it is unavoidable. However, Feng Jiutian does not want to force Jiuyao. She hopes that one day, Jiuyao will be willing to stay by her side.
Jiuyao nodded. Having just left the old man who had been with her for many years, she was in low spirits and didn't react much. She looked no different from an ordinary little girl.
Feng Jiutian took Jiuyao out of the Void Spirit Space and told her to rest for a while, while he himself sat down and quickly entered a meditative state.
She never slackens in her cultivation journey. Only the strong are respected, and strength is the ultimate truth. She will never forget these principles. She will not allow herself to live under the protection of others forever. She does not want something like what just happened to happen again!
After Jiuyao left the Void Space, Feng Jiutian's spiritual power calmed down and circulated smoothly within her body, one cycle after another.
The night passed quickly, and early in the morning, the five members of the Royal Academy gathered in the hall. They all knew that their opponent in today's team competition was Maple Forest Academy!
In terms of individual strength, perhaps no one from Maple Forest Academy can compare to Huang Mang from Luojia Academy who fought against Feng Jiutian yesterday. However, overall, Maple Forest Academy is the strongest among the four participating countries!
Qiang Huan looked at Feng Jiutian with some concern: "You were seriously injured in yesterday's battle with Huang Mang. Will you be okay in today's team competition?"
Feng Jiutian waved his hand dismissively: "It's just a minor injury. I've fully recovered. Today, I'll see just how strong Maple Forest Academy really is!"
Has everything been restored?
Upon hearing this, Ruohan and the other three couldn't help but exchange glances and click their tongues in amazement. Although Feng Jiutian had won in the end yesterday, Huang Mang's attack was extremely domineering, and they had all seen how badly Feng Jiutian was injured. However, she had actually recovered after just one night!
Such abnormal recovery ability made Ruohan and the other three look at Feng Jiutian with a hint of amazement and a little envy.
What they didn't know was that Feng Jiutian's rapid recovery was largely due to his contract with the Nine Luminaries. Although it failed, healing his injuries was not a problem.
Upon learning that Feng Jiutian was unharmed, the five began to discuss tactics. Unlike individual competitions, team competitions emphasize cooperation. The reason why Maple Forest Academy was so strong in team competitions was mainly due to the seamless cooperation between the team members.
As a healing mage, Qianghuan should undoubtedly be at the back. As long as she doesn't get injured, the others can receive a continuous stream of healing.
Ji Xiao is a martial artist, so he should stand at the front. Feng Zhi and Ruo Han are both mages, so they should stand diagonally in front of Qiang Huan to be responsible for ranged attacks and protecting her.
Feng Jiutian, being a dual cultivator, could be more flexible in her positioning, standing diagonally to Ji Xiao, ready to launch attacks or provide support at any time.
Feng Jiutian quickly explained his proposed tactics. Ji Xiao, Qiang Huan, and Feng Zhi had no objections, but Ruo Han was somewhat dissatisfied that Feng Jiutian had placed him at the back. In his opinion, his cultivation level was currently the highest among the five, and his explosive power was also the strongest, so he should naturally be the one to take the lead in the attack.
"I want to switch positions with Ji Xiao. I'll focus on attacking, and he'll provide support."
Feng Jiutian shook his head: "Ji Xiao is a martial artist. He specializes in close combat. If he stands in the back row, how can he exert his strength and attack the enemy?"
Ruohan couldn't refute this, so she said, "Then let me stand at the front with him. Qianghuan is protected by Fengzhi alone."
When Ruohan said this, she glanced at Qianghuan, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied. They were both mages, so why did Qianghuan need someone to protect her?
Qiang Huan naturally saw Ruo Han's gaze, and her face immediately turned red. She hurriedly said, "Although I am a healing mage, I also have the ability to protect myself. I don't need anyone to protect me!"
Feng Jiutian gave Ruohan a deep look, and suddenly said, "Do you think I didn't trust Qianghuan's abilities, which is why I arranged for people to protect her?"
When Feng Jiutian said this, everyone fell silent. Although no one spoke, the meaning was clear: that was what they thought.
