A moment later, at Lu Ye's suggestion, the five-member squad arrived on a nearby desolate planet, waiting silently.

After this battle together, the friendship among the four women had deepened immensely. It was rare that all four were at the Constellation Early Stage, giving them much in common.

Gathered together, they chattered away like four little birds.

Lu Ye took out all the trophies obtained from this Melee Battle Meet and divided them into five portions, calling the four women over and pointing to the five portions in front of him, "Everyone, choose one for yourself!"

The four women looked at each other, and finally, Little Dumb spoke up, "Senior Brother Fa, we've discussed this before. We don't want any of the gains this time. If it weren't for you, we would have..."

"Less nonsense, one for each!" Lu Ye naturally knew what Little Dumb wanted to say, that without him, the four of them couldn't have persisted until now and might have been eliminated long ago, facing life-threatening danger.

But it was precisely because Lu Ye led and formed such a special team that they could be invincible and make great achievements.

These things in front of them were certainly considerable, but compared to what they had gained, what were they? They were to share not only these tangible items but also cumulated points and the corresponding mystic light rewards.

Particularly, the mystic light rewards were the most important to them, as it could directly boost their cultivation advancement.

However, for Lu Ye, having the four women fight alongside him for half a month, allowing him to harness the power of the As-Close-As-Siblings Array Disc effectively, meant that both hardships and blessings should be shared—this was the principle of dealing with others.

Lu Ye's voice was a bit loud, amplified by spirit force, causing Little Dumb to shiver involuntarily.

After spending time together, she was already used to Lu Ye's decisive words. Even though their cultivation levels were only a small rank apart, facing Senior Brother Fa made her more nervous than facing a Sun Blaze.

When Lu Ye said to take a portion, she had no choice but to take one.

With a look of gratitude, she casually picked a portion. Judging by her demeanor, if Lu Ye asked her to marry him, she wouldn't even frown.

She never expected the Melee Battle Meet to end in such a gratifying result. Initially signing up with an indifferent attitude, she regretted it once she entered the competition. When Lu Ye eliminated her temporary partner and conscripted her, she thought she had met a bad person but didn't expect to turn misfortune into a blessing.

Following Little Dumb's lead, the other three women also picked their respective portions.

Lu Ye distributed the portions evenly; none of them was more valuable or less so. Thus, picking any portion was about the same.

In half a month, nearly a thousand cultivators were eliminated by the squad. Not all were killed; some saw the unfavorable situation and directly quit, leaving no spoils.

Even so, the value of each portion of loot roughly amounted to fifty to sixty thousand spirit jade.

To those at the Constellation Early Stage, this was a considerable fortune!

Of course, the spirit jade and treasures that Zhou Yuchuan previously handed to Lu Ye and were collateral here were not divided. In that particular situation, the four women did not contribute, and it was he who accomplished it solo, so eating alone was understandable.

"Dismissed!" Lu Ye waved his hand.

The four women bid farewell to Lu Ye one by one, looking somewhat reluctant to part. Before leaving, Little Dumb left the array disc behind, as it was what Lu Ye had entrusted to her.

The desolate planet was vast, and the five occupied different areas, waiting silently.

Half a day later, the Melee Battle Meet concluded, and mystic lights descended from the sky.

Lu Ye's spirits soared because the mystic light he obtained this time was richer than any he'd ever received before. The time he had the most abundant mystic light reward was during his first meeting with Chu Shen when refining the final mystic light equated to refining about three hundred pieces of spirit jade.

But this time... Lu Ye didn't even know how to estimate it.

Even using the power of his Talent Tree to refine, it took more than half a day to fully refine the mystic light. He could clearly feel the enhancement in his cultivation, with the most noticeable sign being the significant progress in the refinement of the essence of his bone marrow.

He wasn't worried that refining so swiftly would expose the secrets of his fast cultivation, because the moment the Melee Battle Meet ended, the outside cultivators couldn't observe the situation here any longer.

Extending his Mental Consciousness, he could sense the presence of Little Dumb and the others. They were evidently also refining the mystic light. The benefits they received should not be as great as his own, since he was the main force of the squad. However, for them, it was still an extremely generous reward. With some luck, the women might even advance to mid-stage with these rewards, though for Little Dumb, who seemed to have not long broken into the Constellation, it wouldn't be feasible.

Without lingering further, Lu Ye, with a thought, left the Melee Battle Meet arena.

Inside Hall 935, Chu Shen looked displeased!

Because at this very moment, he could sense a lot of cultivators were watching him, even though he didn't know these cultivators, he could tell who these guys were.

Undoubtedly, they were Managers from various major powers at the Constellation level, because he had previously shouted publicly, calling Fa Wuzun his big brother, a comment that had spread among those eager to exploit it.

So, if these people wanted to establish contact with Fa Wuzun, they had to find a proper channel.

The first problem they faced was where to find Fa Wuzun.

Undoubtedly, at this moment, Fa Wuzun should be refining the mystic light and enjoying the fruits of victory, but he will have to come out eventually. Even when he does, with so many grand halls, who knows where he will appear?

So their focus on Chu Shen is not for Chu Shen himself, but because of Fa Wuzun!

This annoyed Chu Shen greatly. Each of them was eyeing the array disc, but that array disc already belongs to Chu! Eyeing the array disc means eyeing Chu Shen!

He only regretted that his cultivation was not high enough, and that he could not act within the Constellation Palace, otherwise, he would have beaten up all these annoying people!

However, he did not worry that Fa Wuzun would break his promise. Such a straightforward person would not go back on his word, especially after sharing spoils of war with his companions.

During the past half month, he had already taken time to talk with Jiu Yan. Once he got the array disc, Jiu Yan would no longer hinder him within the All Phenomena Galaxy.

So for him, that array disc was not just an array disc, it was the taste of freedom, a twenty-year-long yearning!

No one could stop him in his pursuit of freedom.

Just as he was feeling frustrated, there was a sudden movement from the audio talisman with a simple message: a single number.

One thousand six hundred thirty-two!

Chu Shen focused his mind and was overjoyed because it was actually a message from Fa Wuzun.

He could not understand why Fa Wuzun came out so soon. According to his estimates, it would have been normal for Fa Wuzun to continue staying on the Melee Battle Meet battlefield for another seven or eight days, given the need to refine that vast quantity of mystic light.

He vaguely guessed that Fa Wuzun did not want to waste time.

Immediately, he set off for grand hall number one thousand six hundred thirty-two!

The cultivators who had been watching Chu Shen openly and secretly all paused in surprise and quickly sent messages to find Chu Shen's trail, as he was now the only one who could directly contact Fa Wuzun, and they could not lose this opportunity.

But soon, news that brought joy came in: Fa Wuzun appeared in grand hall number one thousand six hundred thirty-two!

The news spread rapidly. Due to the previous melee battle, Fa Wuzun had become the most renowned Constellation Realm expert within the Constellation Palace, and many had personally witnessed his sweeping prowess on the battlefield. They were naturally very familiar with his appearance.

Thus, as soon as Lu Ye appeared, he attracted a large crowd of cultivators. Many unfamiliar faces looked at him with admiration, and some even approached him for his audio talisman marking, including some beautiful female cultivators.

Seeing the situation, Lu Ye knew his plan had worked. His various strategies at the Melee Battle Meet indeed attracted a lot of attention from cultivators.

The array disc's fame had been completely established!

"Big Brother!" A familiar voice sounded, more eager than ever before.

Lu Ye looked up and saw Chu Shen hurrying towards him.

Not even calling him boss, just straight-up calling him big brother...

Lu Ye did not mind, he nodded slightly and directly took out the array disc to hand it over.

Chu Shen's eyes grew wide, as did all the nearby cultivators' gazes.

Lu Ye frowned slightly, realizing he might have underestimated the impact of the previous plan, as the array disc's reputation seemed even more intense than he anticipated.

Quickly stepping forward, Chu Shen took the array disc in his hand and smiled like a flower, "Big Brother, this is too much!"

Although he said he was embarrassed, his hands swiftly stored the array disc into his storage ring. In an instant, the gazes from the surrounding crowd were all filled with envy.

Having witnessed the fierce competitions at the Melee Battle Meet, the cultivators naturally knew that Fa Wuzun's personal strength was impressive. However, the excellent results of his squad were largely due to the array disc. Without it, even with great strength, it would be hard to achieve such impressive results alone.

In such an environment as the Melee Battle Meet, a Black Tortoise Array with strong protective power was incredibly valuable.

If such a treasure were to be sold, it would start at at least a million spirit jades, yet Fa Wuzun gave it away just like that.

It made one wonder if calling Fa Wuzun "big brother" would yield any benefits.

After receiving the array disc, Chu Shen felt relieved. With a serious expression, he said, "Big Brother, I previously failed to recognize the significance of this item. Now, I understand its immense value. If you have any requests, please don't hesitate to ask. As long as I can fulfill them, I will not refuse!"

According to the original agreement, Chu Shen was to help Lu Ye find an entry into the Melee Battle Meet in exchange for the array disc. Now the deal was settled, but Chu Shen was not someone who liked to take advantage. If the array disc weren't so important to him, he wouldn't have accepted it so lightly.
