The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 893 Prelude To The Third Trial


Now that the 2 days cultivation rest was nearing the rest, many of the champions were restless in the arena as they were all expecting for the trial spirit to make an announcement soon.

Even Ji Yuan, Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan were waiting anxiously for the next trial to begin.

Ji Yuan was frowning, “It should be time soon, right?”

The profound voice of the Trial Spirit was suddenly heard again but this time, the non-gender voice sounded deeper as though it was now a different trial spirit.

“It is now time for your third trial to start…”

“There are 220 of you here. In the next trial, you will be seeded randomly into 55 teams of 4 each…”

Many of the champions around Ji Yuan were muttering, “4 champions in each team? Our team seems to get smaller and smaller with every trial…”

Almost all the champions were actually hoping for a bigger team as the first 2 trials had taught them to depend on each other for support.

“…This trial shall last 4 days and you will be given 3 days break afterward…”

The hearts of many champions sunk; it was because the longer the break, the hard was the trial! 

Moreover, this trial would last 4 days and it was longer than the first and second trial as well! 

“…You will all be warped to the new location in your seeded team first before the rules of the third trial will be made known to you…”

When the Trial Spirit had announced this, flashes of light beam forth to take away the champions simultaneously to their new location.

Ji Yuan chuckled to Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan, “Haha. See you soon!”

When Ji Yuan was in the new location, he saw that he was in a small white arena and there was an entrance at the other end of this enclosed arena.

But all of a sudden, he had a blanked look when he saw that the other 3 champions were all men and he had recognized none of them; he was not with either Xiao Muhan or Chu Lixue! 

Ji Yuan: …

I’ve lost my senior sister…

The other 3 champions were all looking burly and fierce looking; it seemed that they had plenty of fighting experience. 

Ji Yuan saw that they were all celestial champions as they all had a black ring on them.

The most burly man among them seemed to take charge by saying with a faint smile, “We should introduce ourselves first. I am Great Saint Zhao Gao…”

Then he looked in the direction of Ji Yuan and smiled, “It seems that we have the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan with us.”

Ji Yuan laughed, “I guess this saves me from introducing myself.”

That day just before he had entered the trial portal, he had already introduced himself in front of 300 celestials. Since this Zhao Gao knows him then he should be among the 300.

“I am Sun Dashu, a middle-tier saint. May I know the cultivation realm of this Ji Yuan here?” He was actually a late joiner to this trial and he did not know Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan laughed softly, “Great Saint Ji Yuan.”

Sun Dashu smiled, “Great. We have 2 great saints in the team…”

Then he appraised Ji Yuan for a little while, “I have heard of your renowned and it is really impressive that you can be famous in such a short time. I have some difficulty in impressing my divine consort in my city-state…”

“Leave the chats to later,” the third man said impolitely. “I am Great Saint Heng Wujian.”

Zhao Gao was not offended by the rude introduction as this was not the first time that he had encountered this.

“Good! We have 3 great saints in the team. Not bad. We are a strong team.”

Sun Dashu raised his hands politely to Ji Yuan, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian, “May my cultivation seniors please look after me!”

The Trial Spirit had suddenly announced, “You have 30 minutes to be introduced to each other before the rules of this trial will be explained…”

Sun Dashu laughed, “We have already been introduced to one another.”

Ji Yuan was laughing too, “Yeah! Haha…”I think you should take a look at

Zhao Gao asked, “I wonder what the third trial will be?”

“It is pointless to even speculate about it.” Again, it was Heng Wujian that had interrupted impolitely. 

Zhao Gao: …

Sun Dashu: …

It seemed to Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu and even Ji Yuan that this Heng Wujian was not a team player at all and he was the solo type of cultivator.

Zhao Gao did not say anything because this Heng Wujian was also a great saint cultivator and in order to become a great saint, he was considered either to be a genius cultivator or a blessed son of the heavens.

Sun Dashu smiled to break the ice, “I wonder how the gathering of the Trust Points from everyone is going so far?”

“You shouldn’t have asked that.” Heng Wujian stared coldly at Sun Dashu.

Sun Dashu had broken into a cold sweat at his sudden cold stare, “Yes, yes…”

Ji Yuan had suddenly asked with a chuckle, “I wonder have you all tried a spiritas maiden so far?”

He had asked this question on purpose and half-expecting Heng Wujian to rebuke him coldly.

In short, Ji Yuan was courting his own death! 

Heng Wujian: …

Sun Dashu looked extremely awkward while Zhao Gao was also feeling the same as well.

Ji Yuan thought: I didn’t get a rebuke? Weird?

So, he asked again, “You have never been to the brothels at all?”

Heng Wujian, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao: …

They had not because they were trying to earn the Trust Points of their divine consorts and going to a brothel may ruin their trust with their divine consorts. 

Ji Yuan chuckled, “Well, I have. I quite like the spiritas maidens in this place. Haha…”

Heng Wujian, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao: …

Ji Yuan was thinking: Weird? I didn’t receive a rebuke again?

He was trying to push his lucky by pure provocations because Ji Yuan thought that it may be funny.

The main reason why Heng Wujian and even the other two champions did not rebuke him was because they were afraid that Ji Yuan was simply trying to bait them and complain to their divine consorts. 

Others may not have this capability to complain to their divine consorts but this Ji Yuan was the personal guard of honor of the Goddess Ai Tina and moreover, even their divine consorts were talking about meeting this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. 

ƥandasnovel·ƈom And they could really sense that Ji Yuan was purposely trying to provoke all of them here.

Ji Yuan frowned when he saw that they had no reactions at all.

So he asked, “So, who should be the leader of our team? Provided we need one in the first place. Haha…”

Sun Dashu smiled weakly, “I think Great Saint Ji Yuan should be the temporary leader of our team.”

Zhao Gao said nonchalantly, “I have no objections with this.”

Ji Yuan was quite startled that they had actually picked him as the leader?

So he turned to look at Heng Wujian with a grin, “How about you then?”

Heng Wujian answered emotionlessly, “I have no objections either.”

Ji Yuan was completely stunned.

Just like this, he had become the leader of the team?!
