Chapter 163: My team mates? Part2

The next day Tang Yue woke up fresh in the morning. 

She leisurely took a bath in the golden lotus pond and started working on her fire essence cultivation again.

Even though she could naturally inhale and gather mana in her body, she had to consciously cultivate fire essence mana every day to refine the small mana core in her body and keep it pure and adulterated by other essences.

Just as she was finishing her daily scheduled cultivation session, Hinata and Lotte came over to deliver some roasted meat skewers.

The old maid was by now used to Tang Yue's voracious appetite. She chalked it up to her being a spirit beast and didn't find anything unusual.

Smelling the aroma of the roasted meat, Little Blue promptly ran over, wagging its tail like a dog and its mouth wide open.

Tang Yue chuckled and immediately gave the cute thing its share of the meal.

With its master binge eating all the time, this wolf cub was probably the best-fed spirit beast in all of Eldoria.

Once the lunchtime got over, the snake then reluctantly opened the system's interface.

She had postponed this moment as much as possible, but now she had no other option but to face it head-on!

"Bring out the damned lucky wheel." Tang Yue mumbled. She rubbed her temples anticipating the headache that was inevitably about to come.

In the last few days, during the contest, Tang Yue had learned quite a lot of lessons, the main lesson being how weak her fundamentals were.

With the system's help, she was finally able to correct her cultivation method and form a better, slightly superior mana core.

But the issue of her weak or rather non-existent fighting technique still remained.

When it came to pursuing the path of the sword, one could always get by without learning a particular sword art. 

After all, one had to simply wave their sword around and skillfully attack and thwart the enemy's attack.

This was the single crux of any and all sword arts, no matter how powerful and ancient they were.

But still, committing to a specific way of the sword often improved one's attack power and strength by leaps and bounds.

Learning a sword art helps one to focus their energy and unleash it in a much more powerful and condensed manner, thereby doing a lot more damage.

Of course, Tang Yue also knew and understood this, which was why she still dared to summon the lucky wheel, even though she was sure that the damned thing was going to unleash hell this time around.

Every time the stupid system had sent her out on wild rides and now that she was living with the Crown Prince Xander himself, Tang Yue had no doubt that her next task would be something related to him.

As it is, she was walking on eggshells around that man, if she messed with him further on purpose, like how she had done with Charlotte or Marvin, she was sure that her demise would be inevitable.

Tang Yue gulped nervously just at the mere thought of her precarious position.

She braved herself and weakly called out the damned lucky wheel.

[Hu Hu Hu. Finally! Dumb little snake, you should really show more interest in collecting your rewards.] 

[It's a reward you know! A reward!] The old man excitedly chimed in.

"Just get straight to the point, Master." Tang Yue shook her head helplessly with a bitter smile on her face.

A bright multi-colored wheel popped up in front of her accompanied by the usual fanfare.

The snake grimaced at the familiar sight and perused the messy scribblings with her emerald orbs.

.....

1. Dragon Scale alchemy technique

2. 2000 Experience Points

6. Kick young master Marvin's balls

7. 2000 Experience Points

8. Enter the Crown Prince chambers at midnight without clothes

9. 2000 Experience Points

.....

Pfft

Aha Ha Ha Ha 

Tang Yue couldn't hold her laughter in when she saw the different options this time around.

Even though this old man was crazy as hell, he had a method to his madness.

It looked like unless he angered Marvin to death and toyed around him sufficiently, he wouldn't let him go and move on to the next target.

"Wait a second. Why am I laughing? The joke is also on me. Fuck." Tang Yue sighed and quickly finished her three available spins.

Just like usual, the wheel landed on the 1000 experience points for the first two spins and on the third spin landed right in the middle of Heaven's Path arcane sword art and Kicking Marvin's balls.

How predictable! Tang Yue chuckled wryly and closed the ugly looking wheel.

"Let's go Little Blue. We need to go search for a disgusting blob."

Growl?

The little cub licked its mouth and followed Tang Yue as she strolled out of the palace quarters.

The duo leisurely roamed around everywhere in the market square, including the alchemy association, the beast chop shops, spirit tea establishments, and even some pleasure palaces.

These were the common hangouts of the reputable young master Marvin, son of the esteemed grandmaster alchemist.

But unfortunately for her, the chubby elf was nowhere to be found. 

In fact, he had not been present at the Labyrinth contest or even bothered to cook up some trouble for her in the contest.

"Well. What can we do? Maybe he decided to turn over a new leaf and is fully focused on either alchemy or preparing himself for the labyrinth exploration." 

The snake sighed and decided to head back.

"Since we are here, I might as well visit the Missions association and pick up my instructions for the Labyrinth exploration."

Tang Yue rubbed Little Blue's head and the duo lazily walked over to the huge building in the western corner of the market district.

It was a Pagoda shaped building with multiple levels, each level accessible to only certain members.

Apparently, one needed to finish missions from here and receive the mission rewards in order to progressively upgrade their membership level.
