Chapter 146: Hunting Area (2/2)

“Everybody, congratulations for making it through the dangers and coming back here alive.” Above the meadow, Han Yuan’s voice rang out.

“Now, there is only one more assessement for you guys. The Hunting Area.” Han Yuan’s voice suddenly grew louder, “After entering the area, you will have become the hunters’ prey. If you succeed in escaping, you will have the honor of becoming a Zhengyang Sect disciple. Otherwise, you will either be eliminated, or left as a corpse on the ground.”

Everybody trembled upon hearing the word ‘corpse’. It wasn’t easy for them to come back here alive and they didn’t think they would have to experience one more life risking trial to become a Zhengyang Sect disciple. Was this worth it?

“Of course, you guys have the choice to give up here and choose to be eliminated.” Han Yuan’s voice continued to ring out. After saying that sentence, he no longer spoke, giving them time to think.

There were altogether a hundred people who had returned. Compared to the five hundred who had gone into the hidden territory, the survival rate wasn’t even 50%. Maybe there were a few who still hadn’t come out yet, but there shouldn’t be too many.

Many people were a bit afraid, staring at the strong deathly aura emitting from the stone piles hesitantly.

But if they gave up here, it was hard for them to accept. They’ve managed all the way up to here and it was the last step. Giving up now would really be too much of a pity.

“Humpth, how can you be afraid of death on the road of cultivation? If you guys won’t go, I will.” One of the stronger people in the group shouted loudly, lifting his sword as he valiantly charged in between the thick stone piles, disappearing into the fog without a trace.

Inside the heaps of stone, a demonic figure moved in the fog. They crouched in preparation to hunt.

They concealed themselves between the stone mounds, their eyes bloodthirsty as they stared at the intruder. Their faces were filled with excitement- hunting like this was their favorite.

On one of the stone heaps was a high platform where a male and female stood. The female was dressed in red robes- Lu Meihong. The one who stood beside her was precisely her attendant and boyfriend, Mu Yang.

The two stood on the elevated platform, staring loftily at the crowd. Lu Meihong’s voice was angry: “What a group of trash, none of them even dare to come on. Such little courage and yet they still hope of joining the Zhengyang Sect, what a joke!”

“Don’t worry. Look, somebody came.” Mu Yang interrupted from the side.

Lu Meihong also saw somebody come in.

“Late stage Immersion Realm, too strong.” Mu Yang shook his head in disappointment, “Let’s have somebody else kill him.”

“No, let him pass. Only then will the people afterwards dare to enter.” A hint of a cold smile appeared on Lu Meihong’s face.

“Heh, Junior Martial Sister’s the smartest. Then we’ll let him pass.” Mu Yang gave her some flattery then frowned again, “Hey, do you really think there could be somebody here that can help you understand the dao and help you break through to the middle of Transformation Realm?”

“How would I know if I don’t try? If we find a group of powerful people fighting wildly, perhaps we can gain a spark of comprehension and break through.” Lu Meihong’s voice was filled with anticipation, “Plus, even if we don’t break through, it’d still be good practical experince. Just treat it as a playday since I’ve been bored to death shut off in that room for the past two days.”

“Alright, since you want to play, I’ll go with you.” Mu Yang’s face held a cold smile as he watched the prey outside. They discovered by now that nothing dangerous had happened to the man who had gone in first and so quite a few more started to enter the gravelly area.

Outside, the Bai Family Siblings- Bai Li and Bai Feng, were both lucky enough to come out alive. Furthermore, both had gotten a lot of fortuitous encounters and became far stronger.

Bai Li was originally just at the apex of Immersion Realm but now had already broken through to Immersion Realm. A thirty year old Transformation Realm cultivator could already been considered a heaven blessed genius. Bai Feng had also reached the late stage of Immersion Realm and so her confidence has gone up a lot as well.

“Brother, let’s go in too.” Bai Feng saw that many people had already gone in and spoke with an urgent tone.

Bai Li shook his head, “Wait a bit.”

“What are we waiting for?” Bai Feng was puzzled.

“Heh, I came back alive!” The Bai Sibling’s conversation was broken off by a tiger like roar.
