Chapter 328: Chapter 297 Rank_1
Hum!
In front of them, a slight ripple suddenly appeared in the void, followed swiftly by a portal tall enough for two people, revealing an enigmatic vortex.
Those who had been waiting entered in single file immediately.
In the blink of an eye, their surroundings had drastically changed.
Blue sky, white clouds, and a desolate Black Stone Forest.
“Is this the outside world?”
Xu Ling, with eyes filled with moved tears, gazed at the blue sky and white clouds, a sight they had only ever heard of from their parents. The villagers who had come out with him were overwhelmed with excitement as well.
They had never dared to dream that they would ever escape and live freely. This made their gratitude to Xu Mu increase significantly.
“What is the Eleventh doing bringing these people out”
The princes and princesses who had already emerged questioned in their hearts.
They also encountered similar villagers when they were hunting monsters in the space and knew these people were used to prepare Corpse Puppet materials. Their bodies having been eroded by gloomy energy, they seemed to be of no value.
However, nobody came forward to ask, considering them nothing more than a band of Qi Cultivation stage individuals. They didn’t take them seriously, perhaps it was the Eleventh’s unique taste!
Only when the Fifth Prince saw several people, he greeted them with a smile.
“Fifth Brother!”
“Your Highness, the Fifth Prince!”
“Hmm! I’m relieved to see you all safe,” the Fifth Prince smiled.
“We didn’t expect Friend Wu and his group…”
“Life is unpredictable, and there’s nothing anyone can do!”
The Fifth Prince sighed.
Who could have imagined that those with high strength would meet with accidents, while those with low strength would be safe?
While they were speaking, the Seventh Princess also came out of the passage. Seeing Xu Mu safe and sound, she snorted and went to the side by herself.
Then, the Crown Prince, Third Princess, Second Prince, and others came out one by one.
Last to emerge were the old woman and the youth.
“All right! Come forward one by one and submit the collected qi!”
After counting everyone, the old woman took the compass handed over by a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator and spoke.
Due to her high status, the cultivator originally responsible for overseeing the trial stepped aside to let her take charge. The old woman did not hesitate; it was effortless for her and allowed her to assess the talents of these young ones.
The first to step forward was the Crown Prince. He bowed modestly in front of the old woman, took out the jade bottle containing the collected qi from his storage bag, and cast a spell on it.
The jade bottle immediately emitted a large amount of qi, which then entered the compass.
The compass glowed and then displayed a number –
Seven thousand one hundred and fourteen!
“Not bad!”
The old woman nodded her approval.
Initially, the Crown Prince had not killed many monsters to reach the central area as soon as possible. Later, all his subordinates were lost in the palace, and most of the qi here was collected from beasts he killed alone. This amount was indeed quite impressive.
Then came the Second Prince, with six thousand six hundred and eighty-nine!
Third Princess, six thousand three hundred and twenty-five!
Fifth Prince, six thousand four hundred and ninety-three!
Seventh Princess, nine thousand five hundred and seventy-eight!
When the Seventh Princess’ score appeared, everyone was taken aback. It was significantly higher than the others, exceeding the Crown Prince’s by more than two hundred.
The faces of the leading princes were a bit gloomy. Why was the Seventh Princess’s score so much higher when their situations were similar?
Only the Seventh Princess wore a proud smile on her face, confidant of her victory.
Sharp-minded Xu Mu noticed that some of the princes’ eyes flickered in the crowd and guessed what had happened.
It wouldn’t be surprising given the Seventh Princess’s personality.
