Chapter 331: A Flawless Lie

Unfortunately, there were none.

Compared to the method of using the three array discs, the origin of the three discs was undoubtedly the most important to the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King. Since they were impossible to replicate, then he absolutely had to find out who had made them.

Tang San hesitated momentarily before saying, "Your Excellency, to be honest, we aren’t exactly sure about these three array discs. They were given to us by an old man we rescued by chance."

He had expected this question, so he had already made up a plausible story.

"An old man? A human?" the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King asked.

Tang San nodded and said, "Yes, a human. At that time, he was injured very seriously. We happened to stumble upon him and we helped him heal his injuries. He said he had nothing to repay us with, so he gave us these three array discs."

"Where is that old man now?" The Aetherhorn Deer Demon King stared intently at Tang San, the spiritual power fluctuations in his eyes becoming noticeably stronger.

Tang San\'s expression immediately became more wooden, and he spoke as if against his own will, "We don\'t know where he went, but I believe he lives somewhere near the Ancestral Court. He mentioned that if we ever had the chance to go to the Ancestral Court, we might see him again."

"Ancestral Court?" Hearing Tang San\'s words, the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King pondered deeply.

Tang San\'s explanation was simple but made sense, considering they were ordinary human vassals. It was normal for them not to know! After all, the Spirit Summoning Array disc originated from the Ancestral Court.

A master of arrays in the Ancestral Court was Tang San’s grand idea. It was actually rather plausible—if there was such a master of arrays, then what other organization was capable of working with them?

The Aetherhorn Deer Demon King couldn\'t help but ask, "Do you mean to say that if you go to the Ancestral Court, there\'s a chance you might meet him again?"

Tang San nodded and said, "After obtaining these three array discs, we realized their value. But we also knew that we couldn\'t keep such precious items ourselves. The old man said that if we met again, he would give us more. Obviously, we want to get some more, but we are human vassals and we are not allowed to go to the Ancestral Court like this. So we came to participate in the team battles, hoping that once we gained noble status, we could meet him again."

The Aetherhorn Deer Demon King pondered which faction this array master belonged to and under which powerful clan he was operating.

The appearance of the Spirit Summoning Array discs was quite sudden, but their effectiveness was immediately evident. According to the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King\'s sources, these discs did not come from any specific demon clan but had somehow appeared directly on the market. This meant that it was also possible for the array master to be independent. Actually, many were searching for the origin of the Spirit Summoning Array discs, but no clues had ever surfaced. Unexpectedly, the clue was now right in front of him.

Seeing the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King deep in thought, Tang San put on a confused expression and didn’t say anything more.

After a while, the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King said, "Tell me how to use the array discs, and then you can go back. You can continue participating in the competition afterward. Let me know if you have any news about that old man. There will certainly be benefits for you."

He needed to carefully think about how to find the array master.

He believed he now had an advantage over the various other entities who were searching for the same thing. At least he knew the array master was human and had a clue about contacting him. If he seized this opportunity, the benefits and business prospects would be immense, so he had to plan carefully.

For the time being, however, he had to deal with the matters at hand. The three hundred naturae coins were handed to the Shrek Squad. Du Bai explained how to use the array discs, and the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King quickly mastered it thanks to his intelligence and divine consciousness.

The usually calm eldest brother was still slightly excited when the five walked out of the Great Beast Fighting Arena. That was three hundred naturae coins! They had never seen so much money before! They had truly hit the jackpot this time.

Tang San also gathered some information from today\'s conversation with the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King. He had achieved his goal.

He was not afraid that the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King would covet the array discs; actually, he hoped that was the case, so he could plan future strategies around this. In addition, he now knew for sure that the following three battles would be doable, but the last one would be incredibly grueling. Winning without revealing their abilities would not be easy. This would be an important trial for the Shrek Squad.

However, he had already given the information to the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King. As long as the latter was interested in the non-existent array master, he would ensure their safety. They would have extra protection even if they went to the Ancestral Court.

Even with his intelligence, the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King believed Tang San\'s words. The reason was simple: he fundamentally looked down on humans and subconsciously thought that ordinary human vassals couldn\'t possibly possess such powerful array discs. Although the fictitious array master Tang San invented was also human, a human living in the Ancestral Court was a different matter altogether.

Although Tang San did not know what kind of humans lived in the Ancestral Court, he believed that there had to be some, at any rate. After all, humans were known for their intelligence, and with such a large human population, it was impossible not to have a number of truly exceptional ones. There was always a chance for someone to be noticed and chosen by the Ancestral Court.

In any case, Tang San was getting closer and closer to fulfilling his goals. They already had six victories in the arena, and they were inching closer and closer to nobility. Most importantly, he had successfully established a connection with the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King. This ensured they would face a lot fewer issues in Kali City, as well as when they embarked on the journey to the Ancestral Court.

Of course, this connection would only last until they returned from the Ancestral Court, but it was not all that difficult to renew the partnership—as long as Tang San brought the Aetherhorn Deer Demon King one or two array discs from the "master at the Ancestral Court," all would be fine.

By that time, Mei Gongzi could well be exiting her seclusion. Naturally, reuniting with Mei Gongzi was what Tang San truly desired.

In the following week, the Shrek Squad participated in three more team battles, with each battle occurring after a day\'s rest. They won all three battles. Exactly as Tang San predicted, their opponents were either not strong enough or just so happened to be countered by the Shrek Squad’s abilities, so they won without much danger. With nine victories in nine battles, they reached an unprecedented height in the Great Beast Fighting Arena.

The bias within the Great Beast Fighting Arena allowed Tang San and his team to earn a lot, and they were now just one step away from becoming nobles.

In Kali City, the Shrek Squad\'s fame had spread to the point where even the Peacock Demon clan knew about them. They were extremely popular among humans. Wherever there were humans, discussions about the Shrek Squad could be heard, showing their significance to the human population in Kali City. They had become a symbol of the human spirit.

Now, all humans were discussing the situation of the tenth battle, debating whether they could win the team battle and obtain the noble title. They even discussed their possible opponents, their tactics, and more.

Meanwhile, however, the Shrek Squad quietly vanished from the public eye.
