Chapter 129 - Surging Undercurren (1/2)
t
The Outer Domain Trial came to an end with a long lasting cheer.
The outer domain geniuses including Qin Nan, Huang Long, Mo Zishan, Xu You, Xiao Leng, Chu Yun, and the Five Tyrannical Tigers were summoned to the outer domain Elders’ Hall.
The second elder stood in the leading spot and glanced at the crowd before saying in a steady manner, “The Outer Domain Trial has finally come to an end despite all the mishaps during it. I will now temporarily take the role of the first elder, and distribute the rewards of the trial.”
After hearing this, Qin Nan’s eyes glistened with excitement.
The second elder waved his sleeves, causing numerous jade jars to fall into the hands of the crowd.
Qin Nan, who came first in the trial, received two jade jars, which contained a hundred thousand Xiantian Pills and an Emperor Prosperous Pill respectively.
“This Emperor Prosperous Pill is indeed fascinating; no wonder Nangong Cheng wants it so badly…” Qin Nan said to himself while unleashing the Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit, enabling him to see the golden lines combining into webs on the surface of the Emperor Prosperous Pill, which formed into a mysterious force in the center of the pill.
The force was beyond the Xiantian Realm; hence, Qin Nan was unable to understand its secrets despite being able to see through it with the Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit.
At that instant, the second elder let out a cough to recapture the attention of the crowd, as he then said in a serious tone, “Qin Nan, Huang Long, Mo Zishan, Xu You, Da Hu, remember that you five only have ten days time before going to the Martial Serendipity Pavilion. Among these ten days, remember not to reach the Xiantian Realm, as those who have reached the Xiantian Realm will not receive the best out of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion!”
Qin Nan was stunned slightly, but soon understood the message.
The other four remained calm, without any signs of being surprised.
On the other hand, Xiao Leng and Chu Yun’s expressions turned dull after hearing this.
The second elder seemed to know what they were thinking, as he glanced toward Xiao Leng and Chu Yun and said in a friendly manner, “Xiao Leng, Chu Yun, you two are geniuses with eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirits. Your strengths are considered top-tier among the disciples. If not because of Nangong Cheng and the first elder, you both would have had a high chance to come in the top five in the trial. Hence, to accommodate your losses, you two are allowed to pick a treasure from the first-floor of the Treasure Vault!”
Xiao Leng and Chu Yun did not react instantly after hearing this; however, as they collected their thoughts, their eyes were filled with great astonishment.
Although they did not have the chance to go to the Martial Serendipity Pavilion for the legendary benefits, they now had become the disciples of the Disciplinary Hall Leader, and now had a chance to pick a treasure from the Treasure Vault. These benefits were not any worse than going to the Martial Serendipity Pavilion.
“Thanks, second elder!”
Xiao Leng and Chu Yun replied instantly, as they gazed toward Qin Nan with a hint of gratitude.
They both knew that if it weren’t for Qin Nan, they would not have been granted such benefits.
Qin Nan replied to them with a smile, as he let out a relieved sigh in his heart.
Xiao Leng and Chu Yun were both his friends; he would not be willing to see their futures getting ruined because of him.
The outcome now was no doubt the best.
The expressions on the elders’ faces became relieved as they were convinced that Qin Nan would not bother troubling the outer domain elders after everything was settled.
The second elder did not waste any more time, as he waved his hand and said, “You all are dismissed. For Qin Nan and the rest, don’t forget to gather at the outer domain dojo after ten days. The sect will arrange an inner domain elder to bring you all to the Martial Serendipity Pavilion!”
Qin Nan and the rest nodded their heads and brought their fists together, before leaving the Elders’ Hall.
After exiting the outer domain Elders’ Hall, the group did not separate, but gathered together with Qin Nan being the leader.
Qin Nan glanced at all these outer domain disciples and straightened his face, before bringing his fists together and saying, “Huang Long, Mo Zishan, Xu You, thanks for the help in the Outer Domain Trial. From today onward, you all will be regarded as my friends. Feel free to ask for help from me when the time comes!”
These words were honest words coming out from Qin Nan’s heart.
Qin Nan was incredibly touched when the three were willing to make way for him after being pressured by Nangong Cheng and the first elder.
Qin Nan was someone who treasured friendship seriously; he would take good care of those who were kind to him.
