Chapter 290 Strange Circles in the Plantation

Ever since The Fish Dragons established their ground in Blue Sea Town, they had been leading the trend of food.

Fish Dragon Barbecue Stand, Fish Dragon Hotpot Restaurant, Fish Dragon Buffet Restaurant, Fish Dragon Mahjong Parlor… Hundreds of stores had been set up in the Blue Sea Town, making tremendous profits every day!

A lot of the members of The Fish Dragons had advanced to be fishing masters or even great fishing masters from regular fishers.

With Han Fei’s help, Li Gang had become a fishing master too. But of course, he was only a most common fishing master, because he only advanced with the spiritual energy of rare fish and did not have a solid foundation. So, he was not as good as other fishing masters when it came to combat.

However, what The Fish Dragons needed at this point were not fighters but loyal and trustworthy employees.

At this point, Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan were hiding in their special booth in the Fish Dragon Buffet Restaurant.

Han Fei was cutting a watermelon and smiling. “Hey! This is the last watermelon. I’ve kept the seeds. We’ll plant more of them on our land next year.”

Xia Xiaochan bit a piece of the watermelon and said, “How I envy Le Renkuang!”

Han Fei said in despite, “What’s fun in the level-two fishery? It has been mostly explored. They can only visit the mediocre places at most.”

Holding her chin, Xia Xiaochan said, “That’s still better than farming! It’s been a torturous month!”

Han Fei picked up a piece of the watermelon and said, “Your job is much easier. I have to gather spiritual energy and fertilize all the land. It’s very strenuous!”

Xia Xiaochan looked at Han Fei scornfully. “You think I don’t know that you’ve been studying the Spirit Gathering Arrays you found from the library? You’re trying to transform the plantation into an enormous Spirit Gathering Array.” At this point, Li Gang came with a couple of people and trays of cookies. “Young Master, it’s been quite a while. You have no idea how complicated it is to manage The Fish Dragons right now. It’s getting hard for me!”

Han Fei patted Li Gang’s belly and said, “Look at you. You’ve put on more weight. By the way, is Little Red pregnant?”

Li Gang was immediately refreshed. His face glowing, he said quickly, “I must thank you, Young Master. I couldn’t have become who I am without you. How I admire you, Young Master…”

Han Fei waved his hands and said, “Stop, stop… How is the preparation I asked you to do going?” Li Gang’s face slightly changed. He said hopefully, “Young Master, the Fifth Academy of the Heavenly Water Village has been set up. Like you said, we will only admit the talented students and the kids from our gang. We’ll provide the best resources and battle techniques for them. In less than ten years, we will have our own great fishing masters.”

Han Fei nodded. “Take whatever funding you need. Also, you need to try harder yourself, or other people might be reluctant to obey you.” “Yes, of course. Young Master, take your time…”

After Li Gang left, Xia Xiaochan looked at Han Fei curiously. “Huh? You seem quite nice to your subordinates. Why do you not spend the money you earned on yourself?”

Han Fei smiled. “What do you think you can buy with mid-quality pearls?”

Xia Xiaochan said, “Lots of stuff. Everything in the Linglong Tower.”

Han Fei smiled scornfully. Does this silly girl really think everything in the Linglong Tower is good? Most of the things sold there have been abandoned by others. Even the best things are only spiritual weapons. As for the battle techniques, they’re not as good as what’s in our school library. Han Fei said casually, “Let me tell you, you have to think in the long run… I’m doing this for multiple purposes, partly to repay the Heavenly Water Village, and partly to make a backup plan for us… Our school used to be glorious but is now bleak. If it ever happens again, we will have a place to retreat to, won’t

we?”

Xia Xiaochan rolled her eyes. “Are you talking about The Fish Dragons? If the Thug Academy is gone, The Fish Dragons will be claimed in no time. You think you can retreat there?”

Han Fei smiled. “Even the ants have their way of survival. If the size of your fist is the only thing that matters, the little white fish and the big yellow fish in the ocean would’ve gone extinct a long time ago.”

Xia Xiaochan said, “The big yellow fish have no fists.”

Han Fei: “…”

Two months later, Zhang Xuanyu and Le Renkuang returned, and Luo Xiaobai and Xia Xiaochan went out.

Han Fei, on the other hand, had been wandering in the plantation with a lot of books in his arms. Sometimes, he was even doodling on the ground as if he were a psycho.

Half a year passed.

Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan became advanced fishing masters one after the other. They could resist the attacks from the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp’s four tails, though not gracefully.

On a certain day ten months later…

Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan were training, when they sensed overwhelming spiritual energy rising in the plantation.

Qu Jinnan exclaimed, “Has our senior brother succeeded?”

Ling Yuan found it hard to believe. “Such a huge Spirit Gathering Array? How did he manage it?”

In the school, Wenren Yu and Xiao Zhan were both shocked when they sensed the raging spiritual energy at the gate.

Wenren Yu was surprised. “Such a huge Spirit Gathering Array? Is it possible?

Xiao Zhan licked his lips and said, “I think he succeeded.”

Old Bai hummed a response and slowly rose. “Let’s take a look.”

Standing in the sky, they looked down at the enormous plantation, only to see a hundred weird patterns in it.

Some of the patterns were fish, some were concentric circles, and some even looked like fishing poles.

Old Bai exclaimed and said, “He didn’t engrave the Spirit Gathering Array outside. Instead, he engraved the Spirit Gathering Array in those patterns. Then, those patterns are attracted to each other and formed a natural Spirit Gathering Array.”

Wenren Yu said, “Though it’s confusing, it’s not half bad. The spiritual energy in this plantation is three times more than before.”

At the same time, the tremendous spiritual energy gathering in the plantation attracted everybody’s attention in the Blue Sea Town.

A lot of people were gathered. Many experts were floating by, including the presidents and the mayor. They were all deep in thought. As for Han Fei, he was busy bragging with Xia Xiaochan and the rest of the students.

Han Fei declared proudly, “I knew that you couldn’t understand it. These are crop circles… No, plantation circles. I’ve established a big array with 108 patterns, and it can be used for at least ten years. Isn’t it great? Hahahaha…”

Everybody was stunned. We don’t know what it is at all, and you’re still bragging about it?

Han Fei laughed and said, “Okay, it’s my turn to go to the ocean… Just envy me!” Xia Xiaochan said, “I’ll go with you.” At this point, Wenren Yu said, “Take Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan with you.”

Han Fei was quite gloomy. Why could his teammates go out alone while he had to take three burdens with him? Yes. In Han Fei’s eyes, Xia Xiaochan was a burden too. She could be quite a troublemaker sometimes.

Old Bai landed before them and pointed at the plantation, before he asked, “Did you create it yourself?”

Han Fei’s eyes glittered. That’s an expert who appreciated his creation! He had spent almost a year studying it based on his knowledge on the crop circles and Old Jiang’s Spirit Gathering Scripture.

He had studied dozens of arrays in the past ten months. Though he hadn’t figured out more arrays yet, he didn’t think that anybody could be as good as him in terms of Spirit Gathering Arrays.

Han Fei grinned, “Not that I’m bragging, but nobody else in the Blue Sea Town can establish such a huge Spirit Gathering Array.”

Old Bai slapped Han Fei’s head. “Keep bragging. A real strong spirit gatherer can create one in three days at most, and it took you ten months. Yet, you’re still proud of it?”

Dumbfounded, Han Fei exclaimed, “That’s impossible! My array is full of details. How can it be created in three days? Mr. President, just tell me who could do this.”

Old Bai scorned. “You think I’m kidding? Just go away. But don’t ever brag again. If you do, don’t say that you’re a student from the Thug Academy…” Le Renkuang remarked, “Another fallout…”

Zhang Xuanyu rose and patted the mud off from his butt. “I was almost convinced by you, but were you only bragging?”

Blushing, Han Fei covered his face and ran off, while he shouted, “Let’s go to the fishery now!”

Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan were both stunned for a long time, before they finally caught up with Han Fei.

Xia Xiaochan was not in such a rush. After Han Fei left, she asked, “Mr. President, is it really possible that someone can establish such a huge Spirit Gathering Array in only three days?”

Old Bai scratched his beard and nodded, “Yes, definitely. I know a spirit gatherer at the level of Law Enforcer. He can do that.”

“Pu…”

Everybody almost fell. Mr. President, are you kidding?

Wenren Yu and Xiao Zhan looked at Old Bai in surprise too. That seems rather outrageous. Why do you compare him to such a person?

Zhang Xuanyu swallowed. “We must not tell Han Fei that. Well, let’s just tell him that he’s still weak.”

Xia Xiaochan stuck out her tongue, wondering if Han Fei was really such a gifted spirit gatherer.
