1789 The Struggle Within the Solar Dragon Race! (4)

These factions would be powerful even in the outside world.

Even mighty forces like the Parkers family which had dominated the Great Qian Empire for years might not be as powerful as these academy factions.

Moreover, these factions weren’t limited to the academy alone. They had extensive networks of relations.h.i.+ps beyond the academy. The academy was just a microcosm of their influence.

A few Solar Dragon Race martial warriors were gathered in a manor in the academy.

“Hmph, he lost. Zhulong Shan is a disgrace to our Solar Dragon Race!” A heaven-stage martial warrior from the Solar Dragon Race crossed his arms in front of his chest and snorted.

“I’ve already told you that w.a.n.g Teng isn’t an easy person to deal with and we shouldn’t offend him. However, you didn’t believe me,” another lady from the Solar Dragon Race said with a smirk.

Although this lady was from the Solar Dragon Race and was at least five meters tall, her body was well-proportioned and not overly bulky. She didn’t look strange.

Her figure was extremely voluptuous, and along with the dragon horns on her head, she exuded a unique charm.

Unlike the male members of the Solar Dragon Race, she was quite attractive. She wasn’t rough-looking.

“Zhulong Shuang, stop making sarcastic remarks. It’s of no benefit to either of us if we don’t get that body back,” the heaven-stage martial warrior said coldly.

“Believe it or not, if I go and retrieve it, I can bring it back easily,” Zhulong Shuang said calmly as she swirled a gla.s.s of red wine in her hand.

“You?” The Solar Dragon Race man scoffed.

“What will you do if I succeed?” Zhulong Shuang asked.

“Zhulong Hao, what if Zhulong Shuang uses her charm and succeeds?” Another martial warrior from the Solar Dragon Race laughed and commented.

“Get lost!” Zhulong Shuang snapped.

“How can a lady from the Solar Dragon Race do such a thing?” Zhulong Hao snorted. Then, he looked at Zhulong Shuang and said, “If you succeed, I’ll give you 100,000 points!”

“100,000 points isn’t enough!” Zhulong Shuang said.

“How much do you want?” Zhulong Hao frowned and asked.

“300,000!” Zhulong Shuang said.

“300,000!” Zhulong Hao was infuriated. “Why don’t you just s.n.a.t.c.h the points from me?”

The others were also taken aback. 300,000 points wasn’t a small sum for them. After all, no one’s points appeared out of thin air.

In the academy, points were extremely important. They were needed everywhere.

300,000 points was enough to buy an eternal-stage scripture.

“You!” Zhulong Hao fell for the ply. He glared at Zhulong Shuang and said, “Fine, 300,000 it is. If you can get the body back, I can afford to give you 300,000 points.”

“Alright, you said it. Everyone, be our witness,” Zhulong Shuang immediately shouted.

The others naturally agreed with a smile. Zhulong Hao and Zhulong Shuang were not from the same lineage. They were happy to watch them argue.

“I’m not done yet. What if I brought it back first?” Zhulong Hao asked with a sly look in his eyes.

“Tsk, is this your plan?” Zhulong Shuang rolled her eyes. She was speechless. “What do you want?”

“If I retrieve it first, you will give me 300,000 points,” Zhulong Hao said.

Zhulong Shuang stared at Zhulong Hao for some time, wanting to see where his confidence came from.

“Do you dare to agree?” Zhulong Hao smiled.

“Why won’t I? I’ve already said that I can retrieve it,” Zhulong Shuang replied with a smile.

“Since you’re so confident, let’s set a time limit. I can’t wait forever,” Zhulong Hao said.

“How about one month? Excluding some uncertain factors, one month should be enough,” Zhulong Shuang pondered and suggested.

“Alright, one month. Let’s see who retrieves it first.” Zhulong Hao agreed without any hesitation.

After agreeing, the members of the Solar Dragon Race dispersed. Despite being from the same race, they came from different branches and fought for interests and benefits within the race. They weren’t necessarily united in purpose and often engaged in internal compet.i.tions.

Retrieving the Solar Dragon Race’s body was a mission a.s.signed by the higher authorities. It could be considered a subtle power struggle within the race.
