Chapter 337: Peering from the Mountain Peak

"I can only use Mental Energy perception to detect it."

A sharp light burst from Su Lang's eyes, and his Mental Energy instantly covered a range of several thousand meters.

In almost an instant, Su Lang saw three houses with lights on; clearly, these houses were occupied.

However, he also noticed a strange sensation, as if someone was secretly peeking at him.

"Someone is monitoring me!?"

"But there is no one within the range of my Mental Energy…"

Su Lang frowned and, following his intuition, looked toward a distant mountain peak.

That was a place Mental Energy couldn't reach, and it was also the highest point in Tiansheng Valley, offering a very wide field of vision.

"It seems they're in the distance, monitoring me directly with the naked eye."

Su Lang shrugged helplessly. "Heh, being too outstanding really invites trouble no matter where I go."

Glancing at the mountain peak, Su Lang walked straight toward the distance.

Since the other party was only monitoring and observing, Su Lang couldn't be bothered to run over there to fight; if they wanted to watch, let them watch.

At this moment, on that mountain peak, a tall man showed a look of surprise.

"This guy seems to have discovered me!?"

"That's impossible, right? He's just a tiny Martial Commander. How could he detect my spying?"

"It must be a coincidence… This is the highest point in Tiansheng Valley, so it's very eye-catching. He just happened to look over."

After a bit of analysis, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, he took out a communication jade token and sent a message to many Students: "Su Lang has already headed east. Go and occupy the houses there!"

"Understood!"

"We're going right now. I guarantee he won't be able to enter a single house."

"…"

A series of replies appeared on the jade token, and the man couldn't help but sneer.

In Tiansheng Valley, the number of Hall of Fame Students was fewer than the number of residences.

Therefore, the Students had the right to freely choose their residences.

As long as they used Mental Energy as a key, they could activate a residence and claim it as their own.

But the prerequisite was that a Student could only own one residence at a time.

If a Student already owned a residence, their previous residence would automatically become ownerless land.

The plan of the Long-Braided Youth and others who were jealous of Su Lang was to occupy the residences near Su Lang, leaving him with nowhere to go, forced to constantly search for a residence in the valley and falling into an embarrassing situation!

They couldn't hit or scold Su Lang, so they could only use this method to Prank him and make him suffer a hidden loss.

At this time, Su Lang arrived at another location.

However, when he spread his Mental Energy, he found that all the residences here were also occupied!

"Are there really this many Hall of Fame Students?"

Su Lang's brow furrowed deeply.

Su Lang had already learned about the method of moving into residences in Tiansheng Valley during his conversation with Xiao Ning.

He also knew that there were many unoccupied residences in the valley.

Logically, it was impossible to have searched so many places without finding an uninhabited residence.

Therefore, Su Lang already felt that something was amiss.

"Forget it, I'll use Clones to search."

"While I'm at it, I'll see exactly what's going on!"

With a thought from Su Lang, six Clones appeared in different locations.

They were surrounded by black flames, which could block visual inspection, and they had Mental Energy barriers to prevent others' Mental Energy perception.

As soon as the six Clones appeared, they spread their Mental Energy and dispersed in all directions.

As for Su Lang himself, he changed direction and headed south.

"Su Lang is going south!"

"Quickly, go south and occupy the residences there!"

On the mountain peak, the man immediately sent out the message.

Tiansheng Valley was very large, and this man had to keep his eyes on Su Lang at all times to ensure he didn't lose him.

Because of this, he didn't notice that six Mysterious Figures had appeared in Tiansheng Valley.

After receiving the man's message, the others immediately rushed south.

Coincidentally, a Student involved in the pranking operation was exposed to the Mental Energy perception of one of Su Lang's Clones.
