 Xioo Weimin trembled but soon regained his composure.
 "Can we talk?" He asked and Zhu Huang immediately nodded.
 Two days layer, Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang approached Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan.
 [What took them so long? It’s been two days since they decided to cooperate.] Shen Xu secretly grumbled.
 "It’s your move." Zhen Yuan reminded, pointing at the chess board.
 Reflexively, Shen Xu looked at the board but soon frowned.
 ’What a tragedy.’ He thought.
 When he first brought out the games, Shen Xu was proud because he had a clear advantage.
 Unfortunately, his advantage didn’t last.
 No matter which game, Zhen Yuan mastered it after a few plays.
 Before long, the master became the student and Shen Xu hadn’t won a single game in the last fifteen days.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Looking at the board, the double sighed.
 ’I have no path to victory.’ He thought and narrowed his eyes.
 A moment later, he suddenly pointed to Zhen Yuan’s back and exclaimed in surprise.
 Seeing this, Zhen Yuan turned with a helpless expression.
 However, he didn’t see anything behind him.
 When turned to the front, the chest board had mysteriously fallen and the pieces were scattered on the ground.
 "You accidentally knocked it over when you turned around." Shen Xu explained with a righteous expression.
 "It’s too bad. I just thought of a brilliant move I wanted to try." He continued and Zhen Yuan almost rolled his eyes.
 ’XiaoXu’ s talent is wasted on me. ’ He thought but had a solemn face.
 "Is that so? Maybe you can show it to me next to time."
 "You can count on me." Shen Xu smiled.
 However, in his mind, he had already decided not to play games with Zhen Yuan in the future.
 At this time, Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang arrived before them.
 "Can we help you?" Shen Xu asked.
 "The two taoist friends have been here for a long time but we haven’t introduced each other." Zhu Huang smoked and continued.
 "My name is Zhu Huang and he is Xiao Weimin. We are both student of the Divine Rainbow Academy."
 "Felllow daoist Zhu, fellow daoist Xiao." Shen Xu greeted and Zhen Yuan nodded.
 "My surname is Yuan and his surname is Xu. We are casual cultivators." Shen Xu said.
 "Fellow daoist Xu, Fellow daoist Yuan." Zhu Huang greeted and quickly continued.
 "Did you come to Black Turtle mountain for training?" He asked.
 "My partner and I are looking for opportunities to advance." Shen Xu sighed.
 "We heard there might be an opportunity on Black Turtle Ridge."
 "Is that so?" Zhu Huang and Xiao Weimin secretly looked at each other.
 However, this outcome was within their expectations.
 After thinking about it, they felt the couple knew about the red-veined loquats.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Otherwise, it was too strange for the two to ’coincidentally’ block the cave entrance for so many days.
 If the two truly wanted to relax, the current place was neither the most beautiful nor the most relaxing on the Black Turtle Ridge.
 "We also heard the same." Xiao Weimin said, narrowing his eyes into slits before he continued.
 "Do the two fellow daoists know what kind of opportunity is on Black Turtle Ridge?" He asked and Shen Xu smiled.
 "What about fellow daoist Xiao? What kind of opportunity did you hear about?" The double asked.
 Hearing this, Xiao Weimin fell silent and Shen Xu almost sneered.
 ’You want us to reveal our hand but you are unwilling to reveal yours. Wishful thinking.’ He thought.
 " I heard there is a red-veined loquats tree in a hidden cave on Black Turtle Ridge." Zhu Huang revealed and everyone turned to look at him.
 A moment later, Shen Xu burst into laughter before he spoke.
 "We also heard about the tree." He said.
 "So did I." Xiao Weimin nodded.
 After revealing their cards, the following negotiation was easy.
 "My group needs three loquats." Xiao Weimin said and Zhu Huang nodded in agreement.
 "So does my group."
 "Why don’t we guarantee three loquats for each group? The remaining three will be up to our abilities. What do you think?" Shen Xu suggested.
 "I agree to this approach." Xiao Weimin and Zhu Huang readily agreed.
 After all, each of their groups had three people while the couple only had two people.
 From this perspective, the deal was unfair to the couple but what had thought got to do wihh them?
 Soon after, Zhu Huang and Xiao Weimin left.
 [Look at how happy they are. They think they can take advantage of us.] Shen Xu snorted.
 [Don’t be angry. Yang Shi is already on the tree. The remaining three loquats will also be
 ours.]
 [Will they keep their word?]
 [We agreed that one person from each group will fight the guardian beast while the others get the fruits. If someone gets injured during the fight, their group may be in danger.]
 [Then I don’t have to worry.] Shen Xu smiled.
 [Do you have so much confidence in me?]
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> [Of course.] Shen Xu nodded.
 Time passed and in the blink of an eye, it was the day for the loquats to mature.
 Knowing this, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan packed their tent and dismantled the formations ahewsd of time.
 When it was almost time, Shen Xu, Bai Guo, Lin Mengmeng, Zhu Huang, and the swordsman hid while Zhen Yuan, Xiao Weimin, and the martial artist approached the boulder entrance.
 Xiao Weimin held his world piercing spear, the martial artist wore gloves and Zhen Yuan held a long qiang.
 "Daoist friend Zhen also uses a spear." Xiao Weimin commented but Zhen Yuan didn’t answer.
 In fact, his main weapon was a brush.
 However, a brush was too conspicuous and unsuitable to use when Zhen Yuan was in disguise.
 Considering that, Zhen Yuan learned a spear art.
 First, the brush he found in the gambling stone could be transformed into a black-handled spear.
 Second, Shen Xu happened to have refined a batch of spears during his practice.
 This time, Zhen Yuan wasn’t using his brush spear but one of Shen Xu’s practice outcomes.</div>
