After dealing with Yan Lin, Dongfang Mian searched for memories of the past in the small cave before returning outside.
In the days that followed, Dongfang Mian searched the entire assessment realm but still couldn't find the opportunity reward. She suspected that she had found all the flaws in the realm, and the number on the token had reached an astonishing number, but the opportunity reward still hadn't been triggered.
With the end time fast approaching, Dongfang Mian had no choice but to give up. She sat down by a stream to wash her face.
Cupping the clear stream water in her hands, and looking at her distorted reflection in the churned water, Dongfang Mian's heart skipped a beat. Could it be...?
She tentatively asked, "I'm not the real me, I'm fake?"
Instantly, a beam of light emanated from the stream, and Dongfang Mian found her body slowly becoming transparent. Her reflection in the stream actually stood up, looked at her, and smiled. Dongfang Mian clearly saw a blue ball of light in her hand being absorbed into her wrist.
The shift in consciousness happened in an instant. It was as if she had suddenly drifted off and then been jolted awake. Dongfang Mian found herself standing at the entrance to the fourth level, surrounded by divine beasts who were also still in a daze.
After confirming that she had indeed obtained the opportunity, Dongfang Mian finally felt relieved. Looking around, she realized that what she thought was the easiest third level was actually quite difficult for the divine beasts, as this level had eliminated two-thirds of them.
Aju jumped onto Dongfang Mian's shoulder and communicated with her in her heart through a contract.
"Ah Ju, is this level difficult for divine beasts?"
"It's not difficult at all. They're just stupid. Look, I went in and passed through in no time. After that, I soaked in a hot spring. It was so relaxing; I didn't want to come out."
"That powerful?" Dongfang Mian asked with great skepticism.
"Of course, the main reason is that you were really too stupid in this illusion array. I found ten flaws in you alone."
"Oh? Tell me about it," Dongfang Mian said, very curious.
"Hmm, for example, that fake one was too pretty, spoke too gently, never swore, didn't snore when she slept, and wouldn't even scratch my belly..."
Dongfang Mian's face grew darker and darker as she listened. How could it be that all she could do was scratch his belly?
So, Dongfang Mian told Aju the truth about the entire illusion array with a strange laugh. After learning that she had only entered the illusion for a stroll, Aju couldn't help but smell her own butt to confirm the news.
Ugh... I spent four days soaking in flower petal baths for nothing, and there wasn't a single fragrance. It smelled awful... Ugh...
Those around them were unaware of the exchange between Dongfang Mian and Aju. They seemed not to have completely escaped the illusion, and stood there dumbfounded.
They were dumbfounded, but the divine beasts at the foot of the mountain were not. When they saw Dongfang Mian and Aju appear before the fourth level, the entire Crimson-Striped Divine Tiger clan erupted in cheers.
This is an achievement worthy of being recorded in the genealogy of the Crimson Tiger Clan. Although the Crimson Tiger Clan is powerful and firmly holds one of the four dominant forces, historically, none of the Crimson Tigers who participated in the Divine Beast Mountain assessment have ever passed the third test. Therefore, they have always been openly and secretly mocked by the other three major races.
For many years, the Crimson Tiger Clan Chief couldn't understand why his own prodigy couldn't pass the third level. Even other minor races had divine beasts that could pass the third or even the fourth level. Could it be that there was some defect in his race's bloodline?
