Deep underwater, the Water Elemental was diving at its fastest speed possible. From time to time a Magical Beast Shark was able to reach its feet but the Water Elemental would quickly cut a piece of the Twin Horn Shark's meat, hence distracting that Magical Beast Shark and also causing conflict.

After doing that the Water Elemental would continue diving deeper and deeper, and repeating the steps over and over again.

"Do a turnaround!" Leo suddenly sent an order.

*Whaaash!

The Water Elemental quickly did a turnaround, causing it to arrive behind the group of Magical Beast Sharks.

All of the Magical Beast Sharks were sent into confusion for a bit before they quickly got back their grip.

"Now go and dive deep!"

*Whaaash!

The Water Elemental quickly dive deep.

All of the Magical Beast Sharks didn't hesitate to follow after. However, because they were almost stacked together in one place, it had caused them to slow down for a bit due to their body unable to easily turn around.

"Cut another piece!"

*Shingg!

A piece of Twin Horn Shark's meat was thrown behind, causing all the Magical Beast Sharks to slam with each other in order for them to reach the piece of meat first.

"Continue diving!"

*Whaash!

The Water Elemental quickly dives deeper down again. Obviously, a small piece of Twin Horn Shark's meat wouldn't last for a long time.

"80 meters..."

"85 meters..."

"90 meters..."

"95 meters..."

"Now!" Leo suddenly ordered.

*Whaaash!

A javelin with the Twin Horn Shark's meat attached to was immediately thrown deeper before the Water Elemental disappeared.

The moment the Water Elemental disappeared, Leo quickly went back to the back of the boat.

"Where are you going, Leo?" Axel asked the moment he saw Leo rushing to the rear of the boat once again.

"Just stay there and don't follow me!" Leo quickly replied with a very serious voice.

"What's wrong with him?" Axel can't help but to scratch his head in confusion.

"Everyone has a secret. Let's just pretend we didn't see anything and put all of our focus on our task!" Aiden comforted Axel.

"Look! The Magical Beast Sharks in front are all chasing after something once again!" Ehtelyn quickly called out Axel and Aiden.

"I'm really curious about how Leo is doing that!" Axel said.

"I feel that it's much more better if we don't find out..." Aiden shook his head. Base on his experience, people with Leo's type of character will immediately eliminate the people who try to investigate his secrets. Anyway, knowing Leo's secret or not isn't even something related to them, so why bother, right?

"Look, a Magical Beast Shark is trying to attack the boat, prepare to defend!" Ehtelyn suddenly pointed.

"Leave that to me!" Axel replied as he took out an axe from his storage ring, "I, of course, can't just let Leo take all the spotlight, right?"

*Whoooosh!

The axe was powerfully thrown forward, which then successfully embedded itself in the head of the Magical Beast Shark.

*Pluck!

Naturally, it was still not enough to kill a Magical Beast Shark. But, so was Axel's attack.

Looking really close at Axel's hand, Aiden and Ehtelyn quickly noticed a small metal chain connected from the axe to Axel's hand.

Suddenly, Axel pulled the chain, causing the axe to be pulled right after with the Magical Beast Shark towards the boat.

"Have a taste of my beautiful Twin Axe technique!" Axel smiled before another axe appeared on his left hand. He then threw it powerfully right after.

*Whooosh!

*Pluck!

"1st technique, Helpless Prey!"

*Phssssss!

With Axel's pull, the Magical Beast Shark was immediately separated into two halves.

*Whooosh!

*Whooosh!

The two axes quickly returned back to Axel's hand.

"So cool!" Aiden can't help but gasped in amazement, "Though the name of the 1st technique really sucks!"

"What's wrong with Helpless Prey? Wasn't the Magical Beast Shark just now looked really helpless to you?"

"It indeed looked really helpless since that Magical Beast really looked like it was only waiting to be torn into two halves, but the name Helpless Prey should be replaced to Twin Hawks Dive..."

"And why is that?"

"Simple, because when two hawks dive at the same time in two different directions, it would naturally also go up in two different directions the moment it flies up, hence causing the prey to be torn into two halves!" Aiden creatively explained.

"Oh, that indeed sounds great!" Axel nodded in amazement, "Then I'll start calling it Twin Hawks Dive."

On the side, Ehtelyn rolls her eyes as she quickly interrupted them, "There are two more Magical Beast Sharks coming to both left and right of the boat. Both of you go and handle them!"

"Okay!" Axel.

"Okay!" Aiden.

"Boys are really small-minded! They would even argue in small little things!" Ehtelyn shook her head in disappointment. The technique would still be the same thing anyway, so who would even care if it's called 'Helpless Prey' or 'Twin Hawks Dive'.

After a while, Leo finally returned back to the boat's steering wheel.

"Has anything happened?" Leo asked.

"Nothing big for you to worry about!" Axel replied, "Trust us!"

Hearing Axel's words, Leo can't help but to show a smile on his face before he focused once again on his Water Elemental.

.....

Meanwhile, back in Floating Mountain, the 12 teachers have now become 6 after interrupting the ceremony between Lu Ming and the Leviathan for 4 times.

"The same as before!" Teacher Lee said before he flew back first to the location where Lu Ming and the Leviathan were having the ceremony.

*Whooosh!

"Let luck be on your side, boys!" Teacher Marvin said in a joking manner.

*Whooosh!

"We would rather not have that luck!" Everyone replied in unison.

Being lucky in their current situation right now simply means Lu Ming would choose to target them. And being targeted simply meant to die.

*Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh!

"So you bunch are here once again?" Lu Ming exclaimed with annoyance in his voice.

"Catch all of us if you don't want us to keep on visiting you!" Teacher Lee smirked as he suddenly threw a Flaming Shot spell towards Lu Ming.

*Boom! *Boom! *Boom! *Boom!

Unfortunately, a Magic Shield, specifically a Magical Defensive Equipment, covered all around Lu Ming, causing teacher Lee's Flaming Shot spell to not reach even Lu Ming's feet.

"Where are your puppets, Lu Ming!" Teacher Marvin said as he casted an Ice Barrage spell, causing dozens of ice spikes to shoot towards Lu Ming. But, the same as the Flaming Shot spell, nothing was able to reach Lu Ming.

"Look up!" Lu Ming replied while pointing his hand up.

*Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh!

Right after, numerous puppets began falling down from the cave's ceiling.

Seeing such a scene, the 4 teachers didn't waste any more time to cast their Magic spells.

"Whirlwind!"

"Hundred Vines!

"Holyshield!"

"Rock Pillar!"

Four different Elements Magic spells quickly meet up with the falling puppets, cutting them into pieces with the Whirlwind spell, tangling them all around the place before being powerfully thrown towards the wall of the cave with the Hundred Vines spell, being smashed into broken puppets by the Holyshield spell, and being crashed to the ground by the Rock Pillar spell.

"Mere puppets aren't enough to handle us, Lu Ming!" Teacher Marvin said as he quickly unsheathed his Crimson Sword, "Crimson Flaming Slash!���

*Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh!

Dozens of crimson-colored sword wave shoot towards the puppets, cutting them half and burning them into ashes right after.

"But, it's enough to distract you guys!" Lu Ming suddenly said, "Chains of the Dark God!"

Hundreds of portals appeared all over the cave, surrounding everyone in all directions.

*Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh! *Whooosh!

Right after, hundreds of black-colored chain began shooting towards the 6 teachers.

"Quickly escape!" Teacher Lee quickly ordered before casting a Magical Barrier to cover him as he then flew towards a random tunnel.

*Slash!

"Do you know that using hundreds of chains to trap us is an overkill?" Teacher Marvin berated as he slashed another incoming chain before he flew towards another tunnel.

The other 4 teachers also flew towards different tunnels to escape away from the chains.

"Do you think you can just as easily escape away from the Dark God's hand?" Lu Ming said while watching the chains chasing after the teachers.

"Now, where were we?" Lu Ming said as he turned around to face the Leviathan.

"We are now nearly finished with the construction of the Magic circle..." The Leviathan replied with an unnoticed worry in his voice.

"How many hours exactly?"

"12 more hours remaining..."

"Hahahaha!" Lu Ming laughed ecstatically, "My dream would finally come true after 12 hours!"

.....

At this moment, Leo finally runs out of the Twin Horn Shark's meat.

The last Water Elemental carrying the last piece of Twin Horn Shark's meat was also already used. Hence, the boat finally slows down once again, specifically in the location with only 10 more kilometers remaining to finally arrive at Blue Fin Kingdom.

"What dumb luck!" Leo heaves a sigh of helplessness.

What he had just calculated as 75 to 25 times to finally arrived at Blue Fin Kingdom was so far out of reach. He was able to repeat his plan successfully for exactly 45 times before he finally runs out of Twin Horn Shark's meat, but the distance the boat had traveled was only around 125 to 150 meters every round.

The reason he runs out of meat wasn't also because there were only a few pieces of Twin Horn Shark's meat. In fact, there was actually enough meat to repeat the plan for over 100 times. But, because of some unexpected happening, the Water Elemental wasn't even able to distance itself far enough before getting destroyed. Specifically, it exactly has 55 times failed attempts.

The failed attempts were sometimes because there were a few Magical Beast Sharks already extremely familiar with where he summoned the Water Elemental, so they just camp inconspicuously at the rear of the boat; sometimes it's because the Magical Beast Sharks was unexpectedly working together due to being a member of the same species or group, just like the group of Magical Beast Sharks led by the Spike Shark; there were also a few times where his plan backfired on him, such as his order got his Water Elemental easily surrounded; and lastly, because a Magical Beast Shark suddenly appeared out of nowhere to block his Water Elemental's path forward.

To be honest, the best result he had assumed was a success rate of over 70%, relying on his years of experience in dealing with Magical Beast. Unfortunately, he had entirely forgotten that what he had mostly dealt with before was the land-living Magical Beast, not the water living Magical Beast.. Although he had faced some water-living Magical Beast a few times, it was only those who live in swamps, lakes, and rivers, entirely a different story compared to the Magical Beast that lives in the ocean.
