Xiao Muhan asked Ji Yuan, "So did you find any profound treasures inside the black pyramid?"
"Profound treasure?" Ji Yuan was frowning with a perplexed look.
Chu Lixue was also smiling, "Yeah, did you find anything interesting? We all did. The last trial is actually quite fruitful for all of us and we got several good profound treasures."
Xiao Muhan took an earth-step divine sword and showed it to Ji Yuan, "Look at what I got in my last trial. An earth-step divine sword. Muhaha!"
Ji Yuan displayed a weak look, "That is a nice divine sword you got."
Xiao Muhan also showed Ji Yuan some accessories, medicinal spirit plants and even rare profound pills. "So what did you got to risk yourself like this."
Ji Yuan bitterly looked at Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue, "If I tell you that I didn't find anything at all, will you believe me?"
Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue: …
They both said together, "No!!!"
Ji Yuan said weakly, "I got a feeling that the trial is messing up with me. Do you feel the same?"
Xiao Muhan laughed, "Don't be silly, Ji Yuan. The trial is always fair to all or else it won't be a trial at all. Why do you always have funny ideas when it comes to a trial? Even your best friend Guo Taiming refuses to team up with you in a trial after a few times. If I have a choice, I won't team up with you too."
Ji Yuan frowned, "I save your ass in the first trial, in fact you've forgotten."
Xiao Muhan laughed as he clapped the ground that he was sitting, "Brother Ji Yuan, sometimes I am amazed how thick face you are. If I were with Maiden Ling Feiyue, I would be in the top team in the first trial. And I got a much easier time with Maiden Shui Xisi on my third trial than you are. Look at your ugly state now."
Ji Yuan growled, "Did you forget about the second trial? You didn't fight at all."
Xiao Muhan frowned, "Did you also forget that Maiden Ling Feiyue is in the second trial too? Have you forgotten that you have killed a champion in our team even before the trial starts and you have almost screwed us up?"
Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were soon quarreling while Chu Lixue watched them with a look of disbelief.
In fact, their spat continued until the Trial Spirit started to announce to all the champions in their respective city-state arena, "The fourth trial will be starting soon…"
"In this trial, you will be grouped in 11 teams of 10 each. You will all be taken to your respective teams for the details of the fourth trial in a minute."
When the numbers to the team were announced, the faces of many of the champions had lit up.
This included Xiao Muhan; it is because the more champions in a team it is, the higher is their survivor rate. Even though this may also mean that they are also more likely to die but everyone is assuming that it would be the others that will die ahead of them.
As for Ji Yuan, he was thinking that this may be a most dangerous trial instead and he was taking a last look Xiao Muhan: So, I guess that it is farewell already. Brother Xiao Muhan, you shouldn't have come here in the first place…
Xiao Muhan finally has the courage to enter a dangerous trial. If he could survive the entire trial, he would be able to breakthrough to the heaven-step of the initial holy saint cultivation realm; he had indeed reached a bottleneck a long time ago and that was the reason why he was unable to advance any longer.
He took a one last look at Ji Yuan and sighed: Even though you are a great saint now but you have advanced too fast. Moreover, your injuries are also too heavy. You won't be able to survive the next trial. It quite sad that we have to say farewell now. You really shouldn't have entered this trial…
As if Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both thinking of the same thing, they gave each other a brotherly big hug as they muttered sincerely at the same time, "Farewell, my good brother…"
As they exchanged their farewells, they were both taken away by a flash of light.
Chu Lixue said with great exasperation before she was taken away too by the flash of light, "Stupid Ji Yuan, you didn't even say farewell to me. Are you gay?!"

The flash of light had taken Ji Yuan to a large platform that was surrounded by tall mountains all around him.
It took him only just a while for his vision and divine sense to be stabilized and he was quite startled to see Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi were also there.
Hua Yunzi looked a little stunned to see Ji Yuan and she turned her head away awkwardly.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm As for Shui Xisi, she had immediately danced to Ji Yuan side and chuckled. "Hey, isn't this Ji Yuan the Great Spiritas Hero? Why aren't you dead yet? Damn, your injuries look serious. Can you still fight?"
Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "Sisi! I miss you! Hahahahaha…"
Shui Xisi laughed softly, "Woah! Seriously? You sound like you really miss me. Hehe!"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "Of course, I miss you! With you around, I feel much safer… haha…"
Shui Xisi frowned, "That is a bad reason. You shouldn't be depending on me for your trial or else you won't have any breakthroughs."
Ji Yuan laughed, "I am already a peaked great saint like you. There is no need for any improvements. Haha…"
Shui Xisi stabbed his chest with her finger, "You mean peaked great saint but level 1 in all your essence cultivation level?"
The essences are divided into Body, Spirit, Soul and Mind. Each one has a level 1 to 10 denoted to it. The average for most cultivators is only 3.5 levels as it is near impossible to hit level 10.
If a cultivator can achieve an essence level of 4 to 5, this is already considered to be an expert cultivator in that area.
Ji Yuan: …
He weakly muttered, "I don't mean that…"
Ji Yuan basically skipped all his boundaries with a low essence score.
He knows it and so did Shui Xisi.
"Actually my Body Essence evel is level 10, you know."
Shui Xisi chuckled, "I don't believe. Proof?"
"Cos I've banged you and survived, Sisi. Haha..." Ji Yuan chuckled.
Shui Xisi: ...
"Do you have a death wish, Ji Yuan?"
Just as Ji Yuan was feeling quite awkward about this, he was thankful that the Trial Spirit was now making the trial announcement.
The deep profound voice of the Trial Spirit could be heard thundering above them, "For the fourth trial, it will last for 5 days and a break of 3 days will be given to you…"
"5 days trial…" The champions in the platform began to mutter.
"In this trial, you have to travel to the end point of the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris. Then you will earn your qualifications for the fifth trial. If you fail to do so, you will be disqualified and join the 300 champions that have failed in the trials at the waiting arena…."
"… All of you have 1 hour to get to know your team before the mountain gates of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris will be revealed."
Ji Yuan muttered, "5 days… travel to the end point of the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris? Isn't this too easy? Haha…"
Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Ji Yuan, are you counting your eggs too fast? Or are you thinking of running all the way to the end point on your own?"
Ji Yuan looked at her and grinned, "Erm, why not?"
Shui Xisi: …
