Chapter 52: Amazing Rewards

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

There were a dozen men moving towards them, like flying shadows, from the distant mountaintop. At the same time, the majestic atmosphere that came with them was spreading all around.

Su Mo was so shocked that his eyes were wide open. “They can fly.” He thought.

Rumor had it that it was no problem for a man to fly in the air when he broke through the Spiritual Martial Realm and reached the True Spirit Realm. Now he knew that it was true.

Boom!

After arriving at the square, the flying figures stood floating in front of the crowd as well as in the air. A strong atmosphere circled around each of them.

The whole square went quiet all of the sudden.

Everyone present felt a depressing tension. Their looks were instantly changed, and they struggled to breathe.

The head of the flying team was a stout elder, Elder Wei, the same person who had hosted the entrance examination the other day.

Elder Wei was said to be the third elder of the outer gate, a powerful man.

Elder Wei stood steadily in the air. His gaze swept over the new disciples, finally settling on Wu Kui, Yan Qi, Feng Zilan and the other two. “You five are very good, and you all own Martial Souls of Rank 8 Human Class. You’re the most talented among your peers. I look forward to your performances during the coming trial test.”

The rest of the elders were also looking at the five young men, smiling. Their eyes were filled with appreciation.

There were more than 10,000 disciples on Gale Island. Less than 100 of them possessed Martial Souls of Rank 8 Human Class. It was rare for people to hold Martial Souls of Rank 8 Human Class.

Yan Qi and the other four were totally qualified to get special training offered by Gale Island.

“As someone who presides over the Qingyuan Trial Test for the New Disciples, today, I shall fill you in with the trial test rules.”

Elder Wei spoke again in a voice that could shake the whole square.

All those present suddenly cheered up and listened to him carefully.

“The Qingyuan Trial Test will last for three days and be held on Qingyuan Island. Your simple task is to hunt demonic beasts and achieve Demonic Cores as many as you can.

“In spite of its small size of 50 thousand square kilometers, there are tens of thousands of demonic beasts living on Qingyuan Island. The trial test is graded by the number of Demonic Cores that you obtain. The more Demonic Cores you gain, the higher score you get. A Demonic Core of a Class 7 Lv 1 demonic beast is the lowest as one point. A Class 9 Lv 1 Demonic Core is four points while a Class 1 Lv 2 Demonic Core is eight points, and so on.

“The trial test has four rules. Please pay attention to the following. First, only the Demonic Cores obtained on Qingyuan Island can be counted as your score. Your own Demonic Cores aren’t available in the trial test. Don’t even think about cheating. We have our ways to tell the difference.

“Second, the top 20 of the trial test will be rewarded.

“Third, during the trial test, there will be many elders monitoring the island to control the entire trial. If you run into danger on the island, just shout, ‘I give up’ loudly, and you’ll be taken out within ten minutes. As a result, you lose the access to the competition.

“Fourth, you have to go through suffering to become a powerful man, so during the trial test, you could rob and slaughter at your will.”

Elder Wei sounded like thunder, especially the last four words. They had the sound of murder.

His words startled everyone. Their eyes were flashing, and their expressions seemed worried.

“Slaughter at your will! It’s highly likely that this trial test will turn into a riot of fighting and killing!”

Su Mo secretly nodded and knew that Elder Wei’s words were right. The method was cruel, yet it made sense.

Flowers in the greenhouse might become experts, but they could never be the powerful ones.

One could never overrun the whole world and go anywhere as he pleased, going anywhere as he pleased if he had not gone through hell first.

Just then, Su Mo felt two murderous stares fall on him.

Arching his eyebrows, he turned and found that the stares were coming from Yan Qi and Wu Kui.

Their murderous eyes were tightly fixed on Su Mo.

Su Mo sneered and decided to ignore them.

Elder Wei once again glanced at the disciples and said, “Now, let me announce the reward of the trial test. The first prize is 300 contribution points; the second place will be rewarded with 200 contribution points; the third winner gains 100 contribution points. From the fourth place to the 10th place, each gets the prize of 50 contribution points. Whoever ranks from the 11th to the 20th place will receive 30 contribution points.”

Elder Wei’s speech quieted the entire crowd.

All the new disciples widened their eyes and breathed quickly with burning faces.

The island was rich in resources. The disciples of Gale Island could exchange their contribution points for any treasure as long as they had enough.

Therefore, on Gale Island, the contribution points played an important role when it came to rewards.

The achievement of contribution points was extremely difficult for ordinary disciples. Even if they could exchange gold for it, one contribution point was worth of 63kg of gold.

Now, rewards of the Qingyuan Trial Test were amazing. Even the 20th contender could obtain 30 contribution points. And the champion was entitled to 300 contribution points.

300 contribution points, in fact, were worth almost 19,000kg of gold.

Many of the new disciples came from the great wealthy clans, and they had outstanding family backgrounds. But now, even as sophisticated as they were, they could not be more surprised.

Gale Island was good at taking full advantage of its wealth.

They were paying so many contributions on one merely new disciple trial test.

Su Mo was amazed as well. After recovering from his astonishment, he could not help being excited. Fanaticism shone in his eyes.

If he possessed 300 contribution points, Su Mo could buy a large number of elixir to strengthen his cultivation and many Beast Souls to upgrade his Martial Soul’s level.

His cultivation would soar rapidly and reach the top level within a short time.

The scene’s atmosphere changed right away, and the killing intent that had been hidden in people’s eyes was deliberately exposed. They all seemed cautious when they looked at the people next to them.

Some so-called friends started being on the alert against each other even though they had nice relationships before.

“Am I understood?” Elder Wei shouted.

He glanced sharply at all the disciples.

“Yes, Sir!” The crowd shouted back.

“Well, good. Go to the dock to board, now!”

Elder Wei led the other elders, flying directly to Qingyuan Island. They were like speeding light that almost cut the sky into two halves.

The warships of Gale Island had been waiting a long time by the shore. When all 500 new disciples finished boarding, they drove to the Island.

Qingyuan Island was located in the southern waters 300km of Gale Island.

High mountains and dense forests formed Gale Island, and it was covered with numerous demonic beasts, fairy flowers, and magical herbs, making it a perfect trial test place for the new disciples.

Therefore, in recent years, the new disciples of Gale Island had been doing their trial tests here.

The new disciples were not only able to practice and enhance themselves during the trial but also had access to other resources on the island, such as the sky talent and land treasures.

The warships sailed so fast that they arrived at Gale Island by noon.

After landing on the island, all the people gathered just outside the wooded mountain.

All the elders, including Elder Wei, had waited here for a long time.

“All people shall enter the forest in batches. Disciples with low cultivation go first.”

Elder Wei said loudly, “disciples at the Lv 7 Qi Cultivation Realm, get going!”

Over 300 disciples rushed out of the crowd and hurried into the forest like thunder.

As soon as the 300 people entered the forest, they all disappeared in the blink of an eye, just like mud cattle sinking into the sea.

Su Mo secretly nodded to himself and knew that this arrangement had been made for the sake of the low cultivation disciples.

After all, a trial test like this did not do much favor for the disciples with low cultivation.

If they all entered together, some of the higher cultivation disciples were likely to hide in the deep woods and try to kill those with low cultivation.

“Whoever at Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm may now enter the mountain forest,” Elder Wei said again about 15 minutes later.

Su Mo and Niu Xiaohu looked at each other. They stepped out and rushed into the mountain forest, along with more than 100 disciples of the same level of cultivation.

Wu Kui stood outside the wood and stared coldly at Su Mo’s back, an evil smile creeping onto his face.
