1081  UNEXPECTED VISITORS

IT was the second week of travelling across Arcadia for team Yunyue. But this time, they were more careful. Letting both Dusk and Rowan wear stealth items so others could not see them. As long as they wore it, they would remain invisible until they decided not to.

Of course, this kind of stealth item could only be used for wandering around. It couldn't be used during PvP, dungeon raids, or in any official battle, like the Arcadia Cup. After all, if it could be used in those situations, it would be unfair for the opposing party.

Completing their day of travel, they realized they had covered almost a quarter of the eastern part of Arcadia. Satisfied with that result, everyone decided to teleport back to their headquarters.

"I think if we keep at this, we'll be able to travel around the whole of Arcadia before the final tournament began," Bai Ze said.

"Should we add at least an hour of battle training to our schedule?" Luo Yan suggested.

Shen Ji Yun and Luo Jin turned to him at the same time. The former had a worried expression, as if contemplating how to tell him 'no'. While the latter just straight up frowned at him. Even with them not speaking, he already knew what the answer would be.

"I think our schedule now is just fine," Bai Ze was the one to first respond. "I mean, the four of us could train, but you, I mean, you already have too much on your hand. And you still have to study and all. So..."

"Great explanation there, you numbskull," Su Yuqi said sarcastically.

Bai Ze glared at the other. "What are you talking about?"

Su Yuqi scoffed. "If you don't know, then it just proves that you're a numbskull."

"You--"

"Well, it's nice to see that some things don't change."

The new voice that suddenly echoed as they walked into the main hall stopped everyone in their tracks.

That sudden voice made Luo Yan confused and on guard. After all, only team members could appear here. Even Yu Jiao needed the approval of at least one of them to enter their headquarters. But the owner of this voice was inside the palace, not outside. They were even in the main hall.

When he turned his gaze to the owner of the voice, he was surprised again to see that there were actually two people in the main hall instead of just one. Two men, to be exact.

The first one, who seemed to be the one who spoke just now, was an elf. His light blond hair, blue eyes, and pointed ears showed that.

He exuded a playful aura, which didn't match the common cold features of an elf. His countenance conveyed a warmth, suggesting a lighthearted spirit. Clad in practical yet elegant attire, he wore a combination of earthy greens and browns, reflecting the natural tones of the forest. The fabric, adorned with subtle Elven patterns, draped gracefully, embodying both practicality and a touch of elvish grace.

The other one was sitting calmly on one of the seats at the round table. His long hair was the color of autumn leaves. The light gently played upon each strand, creating an ethereal aura around him. His eyes were like the color of moss-covered stone. The immaculate white attire, reminiscent of priestly vestments, stood as a stark contrast to the cold and unmoving atmosphere surrounding him.

Before Luo Yan could ask a question about who the two were, Bai Ze's loud voice boomed beside him.

"Brother Xiang Ye! Brother Yu Lan!"

Luo Yan's eyes widened. Although he actually had some inkling of their identity, hearing it still came off as a surprise.

Bai Ze almost rushed at the two, showing just how excited he was. Even Shen Ji Yun and Su Yuqi walked to the two with faster steps. Luo Yan and Luo Jin looked at each other and just followed the three. Eclipse showed curiosity, but did not rush over as he normally would. The two dragons didn't care at all.

Bai Ze jumped and hugged the elf. The latter accepted the hug happily, patting Bai Ze's back. When he was about to do the same to the man sitting, the other just gave him a brief glance and it promptly stopped Bai Ze.

This made the elf laugh. "Come now, Lan-er. Our junior here is just excited to see you after so long."

"I know, but there's no need for a hug," the man sitting said before standing up, then he tapped Bai Ze's shoulder. "It's good that you're as energetic as ever."

"Welcome back, Brother Xiang Ye, Brother Yu Lan," Shen Ji Yun greeted with a small smile on his lips, showing just how happy he was seeing the two.

"You should have told us you were coming," Su Yuqi said. "We could have been here much earlier."

"We're definitely glad to be back," the elf, the one who should be 'Xiang Ye', said. "And we wanted to surprise you. That's why we didn't say that we'll be here today. Good thing you haven't revoked our admin privilege, or we wouldn't have been able to teleport here directly."

"How could we revoke that?" Bai Ze said, as if the implication offended him. "Even if you two retired, you'll forever be members of team Yunyue."

Xiang Ye grinned at that. Even the seemingly indifferent Yu Lan showed a small smile. The former then turned his gaze to the other people in the room.

"I see that the team had grown bigger. Can you introduce us?" he said. "Let me do it first. I'm Wu Xiang Ye, game name 'Blaze Arrow'. And this lovely man here is--"

"Stop. I can introduce myself," Yu Lan said, cutting off what Wu Xiang Ye was about to say. He turned to the others. "I'm He Yu Lan. Game name, Verdigris. I'm very pleased to meet all of you."

And that was how they met the two retired members of team Yunyue - Wu Xiang Ye and He Yu Lan.
