1669 No More Water

Fairy Huanghe looked up in surprise and mumbled to herself, "Someone's actually advancing a level in such a vile environment." Afterwards, she didn't pay any more attention as she led her team back the way they came.

"Wait, wait up!" Suddenly, a feeble voice came from nearby, making Fairy Huanghe pause her footsteps.

Fairy Huanghe turned around and saw a dog-tired Che Ruman beckoning toward her while lying in Li Qian's arms.

"This friend, cou-could you sell us a bit of water?" After several rounds of fierce battle, not only did Che Ruman feel utterly exhausted, she couldn't even lift up her arm. Furthermore, that feeling of thirst was almost about to drive her crazy!

She wanted to drink water. Right now.

Yet each of her teammates had already finished drinking all of their water during the fierce battle.

Fighting the mystic beasts expended a lot of their strength, and only by hydrating themselves continuously could they barely brace themselves from toppling to the ground.

They were able to persist until the end, but they had drunk all their water when it was only the second day of the exam.

They were at a loss. After all, the mentor's mission for them was to hunt ten spiritual beasts level-one or above.

Even so, they basically hadn't seen any spiritual beasts appearing in the mystic beast army that they encountered yesterday.

Even if they did see one, who had the energy to target a specific spiritual beast when they were nearly at the jaws of death?

Fairy Huanghe was a rather nice girl. When she saw Che Ruman and her team's conditions, she couldn't help but sympathize.

She took out the remaining two bottles of water in her inner world and handed them to Che Ruman, saying, "I've basically drunk all ten or so bottles of water that I brought here. You can have these two, but I see that you guys are in extremely poor condition right now. If possible, you should leave with us and restock supplies at a nearby village first."

"There aren't any villages within 50 kilometers of here. The closest to the Lava Mountain Range is o-only Wengka City."

"Then we'll go to Wengka City."

"No." Che Ruman bit her lip and said while shaking her head, "We haven't completed our team's mission yet. Could you also have your team members give us several bottles of water. Since you will be leaving the Lava Mountain Range anyway and should be reaching Wengka City tonight at the latest."

Fairy Huanghe was put in an awkward spot as she looked at the teammates behind her.

Due to their prudent character, some team members looked down and avoided Fairy Huanghe's gaze. That meant a clear rejection.

Fairy Huanghe naturally found it awkward to force her team members. After all, they had yet to completely leave the Lava Mountain Range's special environment, so they weren't considered completely safe.

Seeing Fairy Huanghe's awkward situation, only two team members stepped out and each gave Che Ruman two bottles of water.

Che Ruman was a bit dissatisfied. There were ten or so people in Fairy Huanghe's team, yet they only gave them six bottles of water. Weren't they being too petty?

However, she had no other choice and could only look on helplessly as Fairy Huanghe's team walked off.

Che Ruman then turned to look at the heaving Li Qian. "Li Qian, you promised that we will definitely get first place in this time's competition."

Irritation flitted across Li Qian's eyes. "Who knew that the environment in the Lava Mountain Range would be so vile."

At this time, the two of them were about to get into an argument.

It was rather the last level-13 mystic cultivator that had joined the team who placated with a sleazy smile, "First place isn't impossible."
