"It's paper figures! They are really paper figures!"
As the white figures rapidly approached, the viewers finally saw their true forms.
What did rows of paper figures represent?
The streamer! The streamer!
Upon realizing this, the viewers became instantly excited.
Suddenly, a comment appeared: "The Underworld Live Stream has begun!"
"Jiang Wuchang has started streaming!"
In an instant, viewers from various live streams collectively departed.
Heading to the same live stream – the Live Stream: Daily Healing in the Underworld!
However, when the viewers saw the protagonist in the live stream footage, they were taken aback.
"???"
While the rows of flying paper figures were indeed shocking, it was...
Not quite what they had imagined.
...
...
The Underworld—
After finishing the live stream of the wedding banquet, Jiang Lin closed the stream.
Just as he was preparing to return to the Eighteenth Hall, he was summoned.
Yes, summoned.
He was called by the teacher from the Teaching Area – Practical Combat Class.
"What happened?"
When Jiang Lin arrived at the office, he saw rows of pet beasts and monsters standing at the entrance, each bearing injuries.
Upon entering the office, he found that besides himself, there were other ghost messenger parents.
The whole incident was not complicated.
It was the pet beasts, led by the Seven-Colored Egg, who had gotten into a fight with another group of monsters and pet beasts from the practical combat class.
They had nearly turned the classroom upside down.
Neither side was willing to back down.
During the process, they had even used the practical combat skills and strategies they had recently learned.
Teacher Liu from the practical combat class looked at the parents. These were either ordinary ghost messengers or captains.
He cleared his throat, "Actually, it's a good thing that the knowledge from class is being put to use, but..."
"It's not good for students to fight amongst themselves, and it also creates a bad impression for the campus."
"If you want to practice combat, you can go to the dedicated practice rooms."
The tuition fees weren't paid for nothing.
The practical combat class required textbooks, equipment, and venues, all of which were fully provided.
There was really no need to cause trouble in the classroom.
Hearing this, the parents nodded, "Yes, yes, that's right."
"We apologize for the trouble caused, Teacher. We will discipline them properly when we get back."
Teacher Liu waved his hand, looking embarrassed, "It's nothing, nothing major.
There's another reason for calling everyone here, regarding the injuries on both sides...?"
"From what I understand, both sides are at fault."
Regarding this, the parents exchanged glances and were quite agreeable.
They had no choice but to be agreeable, especially with several captains present.
"My child has caused trouble for you, please forgive us."
The captains were also very accommodating, "Not at all, my pet beast was disobedient and deserved to be disciplined."
After the parents finished their exchange, Teacher Liu continued, "And the damaged classroom..."
"Teacher, you don't need to worry about this. I'll find some ghosts to repair it," one of the wealthy captains said, patting his chest.
"Alright, alright, thank you for your trouble," Teacher Liu replied politely.
Listening to the conversation in the office, the students standing at the door wore expressions of impending doom.
It was quite uniform.
Afterward, each parent took their little darlings home.
Jiang Lin also took the Seven-Colored Egg and the Machine Ball back.
While the human world discussed the ginseng spirit...
Jiang Lin was on his way back to the Eighteenth Hall, educating the Seven-Colored Egg and the Machine Ball.
"Why did you fight?"
The Seven-Colored Egg turned completely white, 'Because they said our alliance was trash...'
"Alliance?" Jiang Lin glanced at it, his eyes filled with confusion.
Seven-Colored Egg: 'It's... it's just... didn't we go out last time.'
'We formed a pet beast alliance.'
The Seven-Colored Egg dared not say the full name, fearing a beating.
"Did you win?" Jiang Lin asked.
'...No. They had more ghosts.'
"..."
Seeing the Seven-Colored Egg's appearance, Jiang Lin sighed inwardly.
He was still a bit troubled.
How should pet beasts be educated?
The Seven-Colored Egg followed its master, and seeing that its master had fallen silent, it began to speculate, becoming more and more fearful.
'Master, I was wrong!'
Regardless, it was best to admit fault first.
As it spoke, it nudged the Machine Ball beside it.
Seeing the Seven-Colored Egg secretly writing words behind its back with bubbles, the Machine Ball quickly lowered its head, indicating its mistake.
Jiang Lin: "What was wrong?"
Huh?
The Seven-Colored Egg was stunned and thought hard for a while.
It followed its master into the Eighteenth Hall.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck, and it said indignantly:
'I should have used the 1-3-1 strategy to take them down in one fell swoop!'
Then they wouldn't have lost.
Jiang Lin was silent for a moment.
After sitting down at his desk, he slowly said, "Firstly, unless it's a fight to the death, you should not strike at the opponent's vital points."
"Secondly, if you want to fight, go to the combat area, don't mess around in the classroom."
"Lastly, before fighting, you need to carefully consider if you can win. If you can't win, what should you do?
What are the consequences of failure, and can you bear them?
If you don't fight, are there better ways to handle it?"
"..."
The Seven-Colored Egg tilted its body, carefully contemplating the points its master had made.
At that moment, it was just very angry, very angry...
Then both sides were very angry.
Then the atmosphere reached a point where a fight was inevitable.
Then they fought...
It really didn't think that much.
Thinking about it now, if someone had been crippled, its little treasury wouldn't have been enough to compensate.
Moreover, if the opponent's parents had a conflict with its master... that was also hard to say.
If they didn't fight, were there better ways?
The Seven-Colored Egg racked its brains but couldn't come up with anything for a while.
It was still an egg...
Regardless, it had to show the right attitude.
'Master, I remember!'
Next time, it would first check if it was a fight to the death. If not, it would absolutely not strike at the opponent's vital points.
If it was in the teaching area, it must go to the combat area to fight.
There were professional facilities and professional ghost staff, and the possibility of compensation or casualties would be greatly reduced.
If these two points were met, it should be able to bear the consequences?
No, no, no...
What if the opponent held a grudge, and their parents resented its master?
It needed to think more carefully before fighting next time.
Beside it, the Machine Ball, again reminded by the Seven-Colored Egg with bubbles, quickly nodded.
Yes, yes.
...
...
Jiang Lin knew about the events in the human world not because he had opened his live stream in time.
It was because Hong Ya had come.
This ghost messenger, who loved to slack off, watch dramas and novels, and peek at human phones, saw what was happening online.
And saw those live streams.
"Captain, do you want to take a look?"
If this matter were truly left to humans, they probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
"Is there such a thing?"
Jiang Lin raised an eyebrow and asked for the specific situation.
Upon learning that only a few minor spirits were causing trouble in the center of that area, he felt relieved.
The human world had its rules, and spirits had their rules.
If the human world did not experience disturbances from lost souls or ghosts, the Underworld did not need to intervene.
If spirits stayed within their designated areas and did not cause trouble, the Underworld could also refrain from intervening.
"This matter still depends on the humans themselves," Jiang Lin said.
It had been mentioned before,
Since the human world's national fortune flourished, an agreement had been reached with some beings.
Within their respective territories/areas, they would not interfere with each other.
The saying "no spirits after the founding of the nation" meant...
That after that, spirits would only stay within their designated areas.
Jiang Lin analyzed, "Currently, it seems that either humans have trespassed into the spirits' living areas, or a few spirits are playfully wandering outside."
The agreement was made between humans and spirits.
Naturally, it had to be resolved by humans.
However...
Jiang Lin looked at the Seven-Colored Egg, "You go make a trip."
There needed to be an intermediary to mediate.
Otherwise, given the current situation, the possibility of both sides escalating the conflict was high.
'Yes, Master!'
The Seven-Colored Egg, having just admitted its mistakes, was eager to prove itself.
To atone for its faults.
Upon hearing the task assigned by its master, it immediately agreed.
The Machine Ball beside it also nodded repeatedly.
Yes, yes.
