The Rising Phoenix
Chapter 825: The Second Test
CHAPTER 825: CHAPTER 825: THE SECOND TEST
"Is there any rule that we need to follow?" One of the people asked.
"Oh... There is one rule only. You can not kill another human. Once you cross that line, you will, no doubt, fail the test. We will never accept you as our student anymore. And remember another thing, the beasts can also kill you. If you died in this small world, it is over. If you are afraid, you can withdraw now. The choice is in your hands." The man said.
Bai Xifeng looked around. Everyone seemed determined to undergo the test.
Someone raised his hand. "Excuse me, Sir."
"Yes, what is it?" The man asked.
"What’s about the weapon?" The person asked.
"We don’t care much about that. You can use anything you have. Anything." The man stated.
"How many cores that we need?" Another man asked.
"As many as you can get. The last 10 people in this batch who get the lowest number of cores will fail this test." The man said.
"How long are you going to stay in the small world?" Another question popped out.
"You will be inside the small world for 10 days. But you don’t have to worry. The time flow in the small world is different from outside. 10 days in the small world is equal to one hour outside." The man explained.
Some of them talked among themselves. Bai Xifeng did not see Fang Daiyu and Fang Zihao at all. Maybe they were sorted to another place.
"Hey, beautiful. Are you alone? If you want, you can join our group." A man with flashing clothes, accompanied by a few women who looked at Bai Xifeng with venomous looks, talked to Bai Xifeng.
Seeing Bai Xifeng look stunned, the woman in the man’s arm frowned. "Hey, you should be grateful that Young Master Liang invited you to join our group."
"Thank but no thanks." Bai Xifeng immediately rejected it.
The flashing man’s smile froze as he heard Bai Xifeng reject his invitation to join his group.
"Facing the beasts alone might be dangerous. You should join our group." The flashing man still tried to convince Bai Xifeng.
"No need." Bai Xifeng refused again.
"You..." The woman wanted to say something again but the man’s voice could be heard again.
"The time is up. It seems everyone will enter the small world. Good. I pray for your success." The man stated.
Then, the floor was glowing. It was so bright that everyone had to cover their eyes.
Bai Xifeng opened her eyes again. She was in the middle of the jungle.
"So, it is an array on the floor. I did not realise that. As expected, Tianlong School." Bai Xifeng commented.
She looked around. She did not see anything. So, they had been teleported to a random place.
’Xifeng, it is not the time for daydreaming. You need to find the beast to get the core.’ Gryffindor reminded Bai Xifeng.
"That’s right. I need to find the beasts. But I think I need to eat first. I can not fight with an empty stomach." Bai Xifeng said.
Bai Xifeng immediately took out some food. She immediately ate the food. She also drank some water. It was like she was having a picnic
The people who monitored her progress were stunned to see her like that.
"Why is she eating at this moment?"
"She does not have a sense of urgency."
"She will fail."
"Relax. It is still too early to make such assumptions. Let’s wait."
The two men who tested Bai Xifeng in the first test had informed them about Bai Xifeng’s abnormal result.
Bai Xifeng finished eating. It was time for her to explore the place. She wanted to know about how big this small world was.
’Pegasus... Pegasus...’ Bai Xifeng called Pegasus.
’Yes, Xifeng?’ Pegasus answered.
’Hey, how high can you fly?’ Bai Xifeng asked.
’Hmm... I don’t know about that. I have been caught since I was born.’ Pegasus said.
’Do you want to try to test how much height that you can fly?’ Bai Xifeng asked.
’Yes, I do.’ Pegasus replied.
’Then, come out.’ Bai Xifeng said.
Pegasus got out. Bai Xifeng jumped on Pegasus’s back. Pegasus started to run and spread his wings. Its legs started to leave the ground and fly up. It became higher and higher. Finally they got out of the jungle.
Bai Xifeng looked around. ’This is not a small world.’ She could not see the end of the jungle.
"She already has a contracted beast."
"Does she belong to the prestigious family or sect?"
"She did not write anything like that."
"By the way, what is she trying to do?"
No one had any answer for that.
"Pegasus, get down." Bai Xifeng said.
"Okay." Pegasus declined.
"You should go in. I don’t want others to think that you are the beast that need to be killed." Bai Xifeng stated.
"Understood." Pegasus disaspeared.
Bai Xifeng started walked. She looked around, searching for something. The people who monitared her felt relieved when they saw Bai Xifeng started to search for the beast. They did not know that Bai Xifeng was searching for anything that she could use in her alchemy and pharmacy.
Bai Xifeng finally spotted something worth. She particularly ran toward it. It was Mantos Blueberry. It could be used in making the elixir. She picked one and tried it. Hmm... It was indeed a genuine one.
