At this moment, Olivia Bennett of Bennett Island spoke up again: “I’m planning to go to J City to take care of some matters. I’ll first fly to Jiangnan Airport, then transfer to J City. The Jiangnan area is close to H City, so if anyone needs help, feel free to contact me at any time… Although I’m not familiar with H City, I’ll do my best to help if needed.”

“That’s really great,” replied Logan Carter.

Passing through the Jiangnan area? Is this girl from the group coming here? Ethan Brooks blinked.

Logan Carter said happily, “I’ll try to get in touch with Adam. If help is needed, I’ll contact you, Olivia Bennett.”

He and Adam Foster were quite close, having been life-and-death friends even before joining the Nine Provinces Number One Group. Now, Brian Cooper’s divination had left Logan Carter feeling uneasy.

If it doesn’t concern you, you’re calm; once it does, you get anxious.

At this moment, the group owner Henry Clark appeared and offered comfort: “Logan, don’t worry too much. With Adam present, not to mention a third-rank postnatal lightning tribulation—even a fourth-rank innate lightning tribulation wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.”

“That’s true,” Logan Carter sighed. “Actually, I wasn’t worried at first. After all, it’s just a mere third-rank postnatal thunder tribulation. But Brian Cooper’s extremely auspicious divination made me suddenly anxious.”

“……” Henry Clark.

“……” Blake Miller.

What Logan Carter said made so much sense that the two of them were left speechless.

Chapter 7: The Troublemakers Who Got Wiped Out by the Group

Brian Cooper: “Logan, what do you mean by this? You’re going too far! Next full moon night, on the summit of the Forbidden City, do you dare to come?”

“Fine, do you think I’m afraid of you, you fake diviner? But I’m not free next full moon night—how about we set it for three months from now?” Logan Carter agreed readily. “Also, how am I supposed to find you then? You have too many identities. If you change your disguise, I wouldn’t even recognize you standing right in front of me.”

Brian Cooper was not only ‘proficient’ in divination, but also quite skilled in disguise—everyone in the group guessed that he must have often made wrong predictions in the past and been hunted down, forcing him to change identities and go on the run. Over time, he developed excellent skills in disguise and changing outfits.

“Three months it is! Just wait for me at the summit of the Forbidden City, I’ll find you! Even if your hateful face turns to ashes, I’d still recognize you!” Brian Cooper said angrily.

“It’s settled then!” Logan Carter replied calmly, looking as if he had Brian Cooper completely under control.

When Henry Clark saw this, he suddenly sent a smiling emoji and said, “Looks like you’re about to break through, Logan. You need a battle as a catalyst to make a breakthrough, right? You’ve been stuck at the fifth-rank Spirit Emperor level for a long time—it’s about time. On the full moon night three months from now, if I can make time, I’ll go to the summit of the Forbidden City to preside over your duel. I’ll also prepare a little gift for both of you.”

“True Monarch, you really understand me!” Logan Carter immediately lost his composure. After all, Henry Clark was a senior; whatever he prepared would definitely not be just a ‘little gift.’

Even a small item that slipped through the fingers of these seniors would be a rare treasure for juniors like them!

“Since True Monarch put it that way, I won’t let Logan freeze alone then. I was originally planning to let Logan wait at the summit of the Forbidden City and shiver in the cold wind for half the night,” Brian Cooper said leisurely.

“……” Logan Carter.

Bastard!

This guy really is a master at manipulating people’s hearts with divination—so devious!

At this moment, Logan secretly decided that three months from now, he would beat Brian Cooper so badly that even Monarch wouldn’t recognize him!

With that, the group chat quieted down for a while.

……

……

After reading the group chat records, Ethan Brooks felt a bit worried: would the group’s Brian Cooper and Logan Carter really go to the summit of the Forbidden City to duel three months from now? With their personalities, they just might do something that foolish. What if they got caught by the authorities?

Better make a note of this and remember to remind them before leaving the group—not to damage national relics, since that would be illegal.

After closing the group chat, Ethan Brooks opened the website for the university town in the Jiangnan area to check today’s news.

The campus network’s headline was about the inexplicable thunderstorm that afternoon. As Ethan Brooks had guessed, the lightning struck in H City.

Because of that sudden bolt from the blue, some areas in H City and neighboring Jiangnan lost power, causing a series of accidents. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

There were also some scattered news items about the Jiangnan university town. For example, updates to the campus beauty and handsome guy rankings; which academic star had once again dominated the nation by winning a prize in a national competition; or how much a certain graduating senior’s used blanket had fetched at auction; and so on.

Ethan wasn’t interested in these, but skimmed them just to have some small talk material for chatting with others.

He then searched the campus network for information on signing up for driving lessons. The fee for learning to drive a standard manual car was 2,500 yuan—the student price was really that affordable. Here in the Jiangnan area, once you step out of school, driving lessons start at ten thousand yuan.
