i Yun was indeed telling the truth.
Not just him.
Han Fu, Yu Hua, Jiang Yi... the rest of the instructors had all arrived here as well.
Of course.
Yu Hua was accompanied by Jiang Hong and a few others.
Strangely enough, although Gu Han and their group could be considered sworn enemies, they were acting out of character, treating Gu Han as if he were a stranger, not even glancing at him once.
"How does it feel..."
Gu Han frowned slightly.
"Sothing's not quite right?"
"Bullshit!"
Fatty scoffed endlessly.
"Do you need them to chase you around the world like last ti before you're satisfied? Are you sick in the head?"
As they spoke.
Yu Hua seed to notice their gaze and turned to look at them, his eyes... surprisingly carrying a hint of a smile.
"Huh?"
Fatty's expression also beca serious.
"Sothing is definitely off. What's he smiling about?"
"He might make a move!"
The two exchanged glances, instantly coming to a judgnt.
"Don't overthink it."
i Yun waved his hand dismissively.
"What do you think the Martial Academy trial is? There are rules for everything! He's just an instructor, where would he get the guts? Besides, during the trial, the three deputy heads are always nearby. If he dares to make a move, hehe... he'll be the one to die!"
His words.
Gu Han didn't take them to heart at all.
"Fatty."
His gaze was deep.
"Do you think this Yu Hua deserves to die?"
"Deserves to die!"
Fatty nodded.
"He deserves it so much! Sooner or later, Fatty here... *cough cough*, will slaughter him!"
"No sooner or later!"
Gu Han seed to have made up his mind, his eyes growing brighter.
"How about today? What do you say?"
"Holy shit?"
Fatty jumped in shock.
"Are you crazy?"
"..."
On the side.
i Yun was sweating bullets.
Listen to this!
Is this even human talk?
You, a re cultivator in the ridian Unblocking Realm, even if you have reached the Extre Realm, to go kill a grandmaster in the Seventh level of the Spirit Profound Realm... isn't that suicide?
"Brother Gu."
Jiang Feng also advised.
"Think it over!"
"What do you say?"
Gu Han was just staring at Fatty.
"Do you dare or not?"
"Heh, if you want to go, go!"
"Fatty, I know you have a complicated background and hidden tricks, and I actually have so too. If we join forces... slaughtering him won't be a problem!"
"This..."
Fatty was sowhat tempted.
"That makes so sense."
"Keeping him around is always a disaster!"
Gu Han continued to tempt.
"Besides, last ti he almost beat you to death, don't you want to get even?"
"And you have the nerve to ntion that?"
Fatty bristled.
"If it weren't for you, that bastard, trapping , would he have fixated on Fatty here?"
"Just say it!"
Gu Han was getting impatient.
"Are we doing this or not?"
"Let's do it!"
Fatty gritted his teeth.
"Let's make it clear, you can't trick this ti. If you dare, I'll join Yu Hua in taking you down!"
"..."
Gu Han was speechless.
"Don't worry."
He patted Fatty's shoulder.
"Although we haven't known each other for long, we've been through life and death together. We're brothers, with a bond as deep as hands and feet. How could I possibly trick you?"
"Don't."
Fatty pointed at Jiang Feng.
"Look at him, don't talk to about brotherhood, it makes sick."
Jiang Feng: ...
"You guys..."
i Yun was dumbfounded.
Did you not listen to a word I said?
"This is the Martial Academy trial!"
He pleaded earnestly: "You should be thinking about how to compete for first place, not... not doing these aningless and extrely dangerous things!"
"First place?"
Gu Han was sowhat disdainful.
"Is it worth much?"
"This..."
i Yun was taken aback and could only smile wryly.
"Right, with over a thousand Yuan Crystals in your hands, naturally you wouldn't care about such a small reward. But even so, you shouldn't take such risks..."
"Wait!"
Gu Han's eyes lit up.
"There's a reward?"
"That... has always been the case."
"How much?"
"Two hundred... two hundred thousand Yuan Crystals, plus a Mysterious Rank mid-grade technique."
"First place!"
Gu Han's expression beca serious.
"I want first place! No one better compete with !"
At this mont.
Forget about two hundred thousand Yuan Crystals.
Even twenty thousand... was a huge sum for him.
Not to ntion a Mysterious Rank mid-grade technique!
i Yun: ...
"Silence!"
Suddenly.
A majestic voice ca from the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw Minister Wu and the others floating in mid-air, their bodies suspended.
"This..."
Jiang Feng was sowhat envious.
"Is this the legendary ability to fly?"
"Heh."
Fatty pursed his lips.
"A re ability to fly, showing off for what!"
His words.
Naturally, were heard by the three.
Wu and Feng's bodies trembled, barely restraining themselves from coming down and giving him a beating.
Only Commander Zhou.
Remained expressionless, his thoughts inscrutable.
"This trial..."
After calming his emotions.
Minister Wu repeated the rules of the trial to everyone.
The Martial Academy trial was simple and brutal. A vast area was selected within the Barbaric Wilderness Forest, and low-level fierce beasts nearby, ranging from second to fourth rank, were driven into it. The students of the Martial Academy would enter and battle these demonic beasts for ten days. Whoever obtained the most and highest quality beast cores would be the ultimate winner.
Of course.
Those demonic beasts had already been marked by them.
This asure.
Was naturally to prevent cheating.
"The ti has co."
After stating the rules, Minister Wu gestured grandly.
"The trial officially begins!"
Upon hearing this.
The students and instructors hurried towards the depths of the Barbaric Wilderness Forest.
Seeing the trial begin.
Wu and Feng subconsciously glanced at Gu Han.
Should they...
Perhaps...
Ask for their one million Crystals back?
But in the end.
They never brought themselves to do it.
"Cough cough..."
Minister Wu coughed lightly, "Let's just do things the old way, Commander Zhou?"
He found it strange that Commander Zhou was unusually quiet today.
"Let's go too. Although you've already scouted and there shouldn't be any accidents, we can't afford to be careless."
"Alright."
Commander Zhou nodded.
But just before leaving.
He glanced at Gu Han without a trace.
"You two."
Below.
i Yun looked at the two with a helpless expression.
"You really mustn't act recklessly!"
"I was just joking."
Gu Han's expression was serious.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".
"I definitely won't make a move!"
Fatty repeatedly assured.
"..."
i Yun opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing more.
He understood.
These two were lawless and wouldn't listen to him.
"Let's go."
He sighed.
"I'll take you to the trial site first."
The three didn't move.
"Eh?"
i Yun realized.
"Don't worry, since last ti, I feel like my bad luck has turned into good fortune!"
Trust you? No way!
The three still didn't move.
"Instructor i."
Fatty thought for a mont, "How about you just tell us the route, and we'll go on our own? We don't want to trouble you."
"It's no trouble."
i Yun insisted.
"I don't mind."
"I do!"
"..."
i Yun felt like crying again.
"Ah, forget it."
After a long while.
He suddenly sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "I knew it would end up like this. It seems my reputation is still so foul... If you want to go on your own, then go!"
With that.
He explained the route to the three in detail.
"Be careful with everything!"
After saying this.
He left with a look of dejection and sorrow.
"Instructor i..."
Gu Han felt a bit of pity.
The scene of i Yun supporting him by offering all his wealth resurfaced in his mind.
"How about... you take us there?"
"Eh?"
i Yun was stunned for a mont, then overjoyed.
"Great! Great! Great!"
Seeing his eager agreent, Gu Han also felt a bit uneasy.
Should...
Probably...
Maybe...
There won't be any problems, right?
Soon, he knew he was wrong.
***
Inside the Barbaric Wilderness Forest.
i Yun led the way, at the forefront.
Three ters behind him, Gu Han and Jiang Feng followed cautiously.
As for Fatty...
Muttering under his breath, he hung back thirty ters away.
But i Yun was already very satisfied.
As he walked, he didn't stop introducing the forest to the three.
"This Barbaric Wilderness Forest is vast beyond asure, what we see is just a corner of it..."
"Instructor i."
After much hesitation.
Gu Han finally asked the question that had been on his mind.
"I have a question..."
"Ask away!"
"Cough cough, your na..."
i Yun was taken aback.
"My master gave it to ."
"He..."
Gu Han looked puzzled.
"Why did he give you this na?"
"It's a long story."
i Yun chuckled.
"I was picked up by my master. Ever since I was a child, I've been extrely unlucky. Before I turned four..."
He went into great detail.
"I accidentally fell into the river six tis, fell off cliffs eight tis, was carried away by wild beasts thirteen tis... As for broken arms and legs, choking on food and water, I can't even count how many tis that happened."
The three exchanged glances.
What does it an to have a big life?
This is what it ans to have a big life!
"Later on."
i Yun sounded a bit wistful, "My master was sowhat worried and simply nad this. He said that extres et, and with such a na, maybe it could dispel the bad luck on ..."
At this point.
He was serious.
"It worked quite well, since then, I've rarely been unlucky!"
"..."
The three were speechless.
You might not be unlucky anymore, but the people around you... they're in big trouble!
"May I ask."
Jiang Feng asked cautiously, "What happened to your master in the end..."
"He."
i Yun seed sad.
"He was just an ordinary mortal Taoist, guarding a broken Taoist temple. He raised until I was a teenager, then... passed away."
Sensing the strange looks from the others.
He quickly added.
"He died a natural death!"
"At the age of ninety-two!"
Gasp!
The three were shocked, gasping in disbelief!
Died a natural death?
My goodness!
That's incredible!
If it weren't for the fact that the person was no longer alive, they would definitely have to visit him soday to see what this extraordinary person looked like!
"Enough."
i Yun waved his hand.
"Let's not talk about him, let's hurry..."
Smack!
As he spoke.
A very clear sound reached their ears.
"That..."
Jiang Feng turned pale.
"What was that sound?"
"Seems like... Fatty?"
Gu Han was uncertain, looking back.
With that glance.
He almost threw up.
Thirty ters away.
Fatty's foot was stuck in a pool of pitch-black, foul-slling, mud-like substance, his face full of bewildernt.
"This..."
He instinctively looked down.
"What is this stuff?"
"Don't you recognize it?"
i Yun was sowhat displeased, "Isn't it just the feces of a demonic beast?"
Fatty's face...
Turned green in an instant!
