Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Hello, my name is Lin Qi. May I ask what you want?”

The fellow who was coming towards him was Chen Lin. At that moment, he revealed a trace of a smile. His hands were crossed in front of his chest as he said, “Lin Qi, I didn’t think that you would be so foolish as to deliver yourself to my doorstep!”

Lin Qi was immediately puzzled. “I don’t understand what you mean.”

Chen Lin was a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down. “Let me tell you, I’m still angry about last time. If you dare to walk out of Black Wind Castle, I’ll teach you a lesson, unless you stay in here forever like a coward.”

“I’m sure you will.” Lin Qi’s expression was cold, not taking his words seriously at all.

His reaction made Chen Lin’s entire body burn with anger. He gritted his teeth and nodded his head. “Alright! Then you better be careful!”

After saying that, he led his companions toward the south city gate.

Lin Qi’s team also packed their things and rushed over.

At the south city gate, a large number of guards were lined up. The city lord was also in front of the gate, facing the few remaining participants.

“Okay, I will confirm the name list now.”

“Storm City’s participants, Chen Lin, Huang Tian, Lin Mengyao and Mona.”

“Exquisite City’s participants, Dong Ling, Duan Aotian, Zi Yan and Bai Feng.”

“Seven Day City’s participants, Ming Long, Mo Xue, and Tian Gao.”

“New Moon City’s participants, Lin Qi, Lewis, and Yu Meng.”

Luther and Jin Lingling had followed them here so they were not included in the list of participants.

All the participants were gathered there. There were fourteen of them, and they were divided into four groups. Each group had a different route, so the participants could not join forces.

The city lord also announced another rule, “Remember! You only have seven days. If you can’t get the five-star magic essence within seven days, then you will have failed the trial!”

After saying that, he took out two scrolls from his pocket, he said to everyone, “Everyone, I have an additional reward here. Written on one scroll is an advanced magic spell. All mages can use it. There is also an advanced sword art technique written on the other.”

“If you want to get these scrolls, you must be the first to hand over the five-star magic essence to the designated Mission Point!”

After hearing that news, everyone seemed to have ignited the fighting spirit in their hearts.

After all, that was a high-level magic spell and sword art technique. Anyone would want to get a hold of it.

“Yu Meng, did you hear that? If we can complete it, we get that high-level magic scrolls which are extremely valuable!” Lewis shouted excitedly.

However, Yu Meng rolled her eyes and sighed helplessly, “You’re thinking too much. We shouldn’t be able to get those scrolls!”

“Why?”

“Why don’t you take a look at what kind of people we’re up against!” Lin Qi added with a smile.

The lowest level participant in the other groups were all grand swordmasters. There was even an overlord like Chen Lin. To be the first to get those scrolls was even harder than ascending to the heavens.

Therefore, they basically did not dare to think about the scrolls. They only hoped to pass the final trial.

“Alright! Now that everything is clear, everyone, let’s set off!”

Following the city lord’s shout, the fourteen people walked out of the city in different directions.

After leaving the city, Chen Lin glared at Lin Qi fiercely. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he even revealed a sinister smile. Needless to say, he was going to cause trouble for Lin Qi later.

Lin Qi exhaled, and without thinking much, he hurriedly walked forward.

There were a total of four paths to enter the southern grasslands. Lin Qi and the others chose the fourth path, which was a slightly safer path. However, that path took the longest time.

Meanwhile, Chen Lin from Storm City took the most difficult path, but it was also a shortcut.

One had to know that they might encounter a four-star devil beast on that path. Although they could deal with it according to their abilities, it would take some time to defeat it, so there was no quick and easy route.

The rest of the participants walked into the roads with varying degrees of danger.

Along the way, Lewis was in an extremely nervous state. He looked around in fear and trepidation.

However, for a swordsman, it was natural for him to be suppressed by an extreme sense of danger.

“Lin Qi, why did you bring Jin Lingling here?” Yu Meng asked.

Lin Qi was helpless. If Jin Lingling insisted on following him, there was nothing he could do.

“There’s nothing I can do. She insisted on taking me as her master and following me!”

“Master?”

Yu Meng’s face became more serious. She immediately used her magic staff to hit Lin Qi’s neck. “You, don’t tell me that you forced her...”

“What are you talking about? She’s the one who keeps pestering me!”

“Hmph!”

Yu Meng snorted coldly.

They walked into a forest. They had to pass through that forest area to reach the grassland.

Moreover, to pass through that area, they had to defeat some demonic beasts.

However, Lin Qi and the others chose the safest path. Along the way, there were only some low-star demonic beasts. With just the four of them working together, they could defeat them one by one.

“It’s just some small demonic beasts so far but we’d be n trouble if a four-star devil beast came!”

Before Lin Qi could finish his words, there was an unusual movement in the distance. Then, a scream echoed throughout the entire forest.

Everyone instantly turned pale.

Lewis said with a trembling voice, “You, did you hear that? It was a scream!”

“If I remember correctly, the participants of the Exquisite City are walking on the third road.”

“That was a female voice just now. Did they encounter some difficulties?”

Lin Qi sighed and shook his head. “Don’t worry about it. We are here to pass the trial, not to be heroes!”

Of course, Lewis and Yu Meng did not even think about going over to take a look.

Then, the three of them continued to walk on the small path in the forest. That area was relatively quiet, and there were not many demonic beasts around. Which was indeed a good thing for them.

However, what puzzled them was that although they had not encountered any demonic beasts along the way, the energy in their bodies had been decreasing.

Lin Qi knew that place was relatively safe for the time being, so he suggested, “Let’s rest here for a while and recover our strength!”

All of them sat on the ground, but they still remained a little vigilant.

Among them, Jin Lingling was the most relaxed. That girl did not seem to know what fear was. She went anywhere she wanted to find the ingredients she needed.

Even so, she rarely went out. She usually stayed in the kitchen of the Black Wind Castle Hotel. As long as she asked for the ingredients, someone would fetch them for her the next day.

Today, was the second time she went out on her own.. Of course, she was very excited.
