Chapter 742: Chapter 746: The First Test 10
The three of them appeared, each bearing various degrees of injuries.
However, in comparison to Gaiyin and his group, their injuries could be considered minor, especially Yadang, who didn’t bear a single scratch on him.
"Oh, you’ve all been waiting here? Looks like you guys got out pretty early." Yadang casually sat down on the grass mat next to Gaiyin.
He looked around puzzledly and asked, "Why is it just you guys? Where are Tangtang and Amo?"
Gaiyin replied nonchalantly, "They haven’t come out yet. What about you, how did you avoid getting hurt, what did you encounter?"
Yadang waved a hand dismissively, "Oh, don’t even get me started, I ran into a beast that could create dreams. I was trapped in a dream for so long before I finally realised something was off. After I managed to catch and kill the beast, I suddenly arrived here."
Gaiyin turned his gaze towards Xi’en.
Xi’en nodded, "My experience was similar to his, only that the beast I encountered didn’t create dreams. I fought with it, and once I won, I was brought here."
Gaiyin silently evaluated Yadang’s and Xi’en’s strengths, the conclusions draw him closer to his initial speculations.
Soon, Yadang and Xi’en also receive tips from the butler of Wood Immortal Mansion, Sang Duo.
The two of them huddled together with their Muxian Orders, engaged in an animated discussion.
After a short while, several beams of white light flash successively, and out came the Beast Soldiers meticulously chosen by Liao Li.
They looked around and quietly took their seats behind the White Sparrow.
More and more people started appearing, and soon there was hardly enough room to accommodate everyone, with several people leaning against the walls.
Just then, Butler Sang Duo’s voice echoed once again-
"Competitors having cleared the first round of trials can proceed through the Vortex Gate for the second round. The first outstanding competitor who successfully navigates through all the trials will be awarded the heritage right to the Wood Immortal Mansion."
Sang Duo’s words rippled in the atmosphere like a pebble cast onto a tranquil lake.
Finally, one of the Beast Soldiers couldn’t sit still. He stepped forward hesitantly and addressed White Sparrow and Xuan Shui with a bow.
"Young Master, we have no idea what dangers the second round of trials hold. I am willing to go ahead and scout for you!"
Upon hearing this, a number of Beast Soldiers followed suit.
This angered the first Beast Soldier, leading his face to turn a bright red.
Furious, he turned to glare at the Beast Soldiers behind him, exclaiming indignantly, "I can go scout on my own, there’s no need for so many of you!"
The other Beast Soldiers rushed forward to explain, "Why wouldn’t we need more people? One more person means extra strength!"
"Yes, yes, we can travel together as a group, it would be nice to have each other’s backs!"
"Humph, I think he’s just trying to get through the trials quicker so he can get the heritage right to the Wood Immortal Mansion!"
Having his intentions exposed, the first Beast Soldier blushed, "Why are you blabbering nonsense? I am loyal to our Sovereign, not everyone is like you!"
The other Beast Soldier shot back, "Whether or not you truly think that way is something you’re very well aware of. Would you dare to swear it before the Beast Gods?"
Furious beyond belief, the first Beast Soldier rolled up his sleeves, ready to punch the other Beast Soldier.
Several Beast Soldiers quickly stepped in, trying to break up the fight.
It was a moment of chaos.
White Sparrow frowned displeasedly, his voice frosty as he spoke, "Enough! I know what all of you are thinking. If you think you’re strong enough to pass the trial, feel free to leave. I won’t stop you."
Xuan Shui seemed to disagree, "But..."
White Sparrow cut him off with a gesture.
