The Medallion novel Chapter 1516

Soon, the yellow team's two disciples approached the box. Just as they were about to open it, the box suddenly opened, and the item in it disappeared in an instant. It happened so fast that it caught the two masters completely off-guard, so much so that they didn't even see the other side's appearance. They were left at a loss and empty-handed.

The other three disciples of the yellow team were also outraged when they saw that someone had stolen the task item right from under their noses. They frantically looked around but didn't even see a shadow.

While this was happening, Rocky had already gotten back to his team with the item he had grabbed in tow.

But his happiness was short-lived because he found that while he was gone, his team had fallen to a disadvantage. Although Carla was powerful, Drake, the yellow team's leader, was also quite formidable, and before long, she had lost control of their team.

Rocky knew that if the battle went on like that, the red team wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer. The yellow team would soon overrun them. Therefore, he instantly moved to Carla's side with his eyes narrowed sternly.

"Tell everyone to retreat to the west right now!"

he urgently told her.

"But if we retreat, we will lose the third item to the yellow team!"

Carla replied, frowning uncertainly.

"Don't worry. I already got it!"

he insisted pressingly, showing her the third item in his care.

"What?! When did you—"

Carla looked at him with her eyes widened in shock. She was completely absorbed in the battle, so she didn't notice what Rocky had done. Hell, she didn't even notice when he returned!

"Here," Rocky commanded and shoved the item in her direction.

"Take it and retreat! I'll deal with the rest of these guys. I'll heed them off to buy some time."

"Can you do that?" Carla glanced at Rocky, hesitation written all over his face.

"I can't, but the Purple-flaming Phoenix can..." answered Rocky with a reassuring smile.

"Oh, I almost forgot you had that demonic spiritual beast. Be careful!" Due to the high tension on the battlefield, the Purple-flaming Phoenix had completely slipped from her mind. She then turned to her men and ordered, "Red team, eyes and ears on me! Basil has already got the item for us, so we don't have to keep on fighting anymore. Everybody, retreat immediately!"

A triumphant cheer resounded as soon as the rest of the red team heard Carla's announcement. They promptly retreated as they fought back, hastily retreating west under Carla's lead.

"Leader, didn't we send someone there too? How did the red team get ahead of us?" Of course, the yellow team overhead the cheering and became confused because as far as they knew, their team had also sent representatives to get the item.

"How do I know? Stop them!" Drake shouted at once as his face contorted in anger.

However, just as the yellow team was about to catch up, they saw Rocky open his Magic Spiritual Space. The Purple-flaming Phoenix spread its wings and flew off, and its intense demonic spiritual aura instantly stunned the whole place.

"What the hell is that?! Is that a demonic spiritual beast? No way!"

"Why does he have a demonic spiritual beast?"

"Wait a minute. Isn't that the beast from the Phantom Valley last time? Was he the one who managed to tame it?"

For a moment, the yellow team stopped in their tracks, holding their breath in fear. The aura of the demonic spiritual beast was too strong, so they could do nothing but stand still, and did not dare to go any further.

"Enough of this! There are other items up for grabs, so why are you so fixated with us? Is there a need for you to be so aggressive?" Rocky looked at Drake and asked.

"Boy, this is not over. Let's go!" Overwhelmed by the Purple-flaming Phoenix, Drake and his men had to give up. It didn't even matter if Rocky had truly tamed it or not. They were afraid that the phoenix could go berserk any moment, and they would have no way of stopping it. If that happened, they would suffer a bigger loss, so in the end, they had no choice but to give up this time. Soon, they turned away in dejection.

After the yellow team had left, Rocky proceeded to the west and joined up with the red team.

"Well done, Basil!" Seeing that Rocky had come back safe and sound, Carla couldn't stop the smile of relief and happiness that showed on her face.

The other members watched with wide eyes, thumping their chests and stomping their feet in awe and envy.

"The next steps are going to be difficult. The remaining two items must be grabbed from advanced spiritual beasts, so there would undoubtedly be a chaotic battle!" Carla reminded them seriously.

"Actually, we don't have to grab the remaining two items," Rocky interrupted suddenly.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Carla immediately turned to Rocky, looking perplexed.

"Let's think of other, better plans. Why don't we wait for the other teams to go first? After all, it isn't a good idea to covet gains ahead without being aware of the danger behind you," Rocky cryptically answered.

"You mean we can grab from the other teams after they got it?" Carla asked.

"Not really. We can grab it when no one can grab it," Rocky explained with a confident smile.

"I don't understand..." Carla's eyebrows scrunched in confusion as she tried to pick up what Rocky was putting down.
