Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Fang Li pulled out a bamboo skewer.
A dazzling silver streak shot out from the bamboo skewer and into the air.
Like twinkling stars, the light gradually coalesced into a curtain of light.
The cold voice rang out again!
[A very auspicious sign!]
[Please solve the puzzle within half a cup of tea!]
[Whether sitting, standing, walking, or lying down, it's an animal.]
...
Fang Li's eyes lit up; I felt like I had another chance to show off.
Without hesitation, he uttered a single word: "Snake!"
Congratulations! You answered correctly and passed the level!
Upon hearing this...
Fang Li shrugged, thinking it would be a difficult question.
That's it?
It was only at the level of a children's exam, or even worse.
He then withdrew.
Jiang Qingqing walked over impatiently and started working on it without any hesitation.
She quickly pulled out a bamboo skewer.
[The lucky draw sign indicates great fortune!]
Fang Li was taken aback upon seeing this, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Junior sister's luck... is simply unbelievable!
Damn it, even more fortunate than the chosen one.
You actually managed to win this!
I thought I was incredibly lucky to have drawn the best possible fortune.
She's comparable to her junior sister Jiang Qingqing... It's infuriating to compare yourself to others.
Damn, it's nothing.
Not to mention Fang Li, Liu Ruyan was also extremely envious.
That's incredibly good luck!
The other disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
The top power leaders watching this scene from outside were also full of amazement.
No wonder he's a disciple of a human immortal; his luck is off the charts!
What a lucky draw!
This is a higher level of fortune, usually considered even more auspicious than the best fortune, bringing good luck in everything, such as finding gold while walking or receiving a windfall.
Gu Xuan, on the other hand, remained extremely calm.
He had already experienced Jiang Qingqing's luck firsthand; those favored by the Great Dao are bound to be extraordinary.
What's more, he's the successor of that ruthless man.
Basic operations, don't be silly!
Jiang Qingqing was extremely surprised to see that she had drawn the winning lot.
Then, a look of joy appeared on his face.
At this moment, the cold, icy voice rang out once again!
[Please solve the puzzle within half a cup of tea!]
[Surprised by its hibernation, guess one of the twenty-four solar terms.]
...
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingqing instinctively wanted to say "Beginning of Winter," but then suddenly realized something was wrong.
He quickly stopped himself from saying the words that were about to come out.
The riddle's meaning is the opposite, namely, astonishment at hibernation, representing animal hibernation.
The twenty-four solar terms are quite obvious!
It's not the Beginning of Winter, but the Awakening of Insects!
Immediately, Jiang Qingqing gave the real answer.
Sure enough, she got it right!
The cold, icy voice rang out again—
Congratulations! You answered correctly and passed the level!
Jiang Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Luckily, I'm quick-witted, otherwise I almost answered incorrectly!
Then, her expression brightened with joy, and she couldn't help but jump up and down on the spot.
His joy was written all over his face.
At this moment, the beautiful and graceful Liu Ruyan also walked up, swaying her slender waist.
Similarly, without any hesitation.
She reached out and pulled a bamboo skewer out of the bamboo tube.
[Auspicious divination slip, good fortune!]
[Please solve the puzzle within half a cup of tea!]
Compared to Jiang Qingqing's excitement.
Liu Ruyan was also a person who had experienced the world, and her expression was as calm as autumn water.
[Please solve the puzzle within half a cup of tea!]
The person has left their place, but they are still visible in the picture; guess the twenty-four solar terms.
...
After a moment's thought, a glint of shrewdness flashed in Liu Ruyan's beautiful eyes!
The character for "person" (人) can be separated into "position" (位), and what remains is "stand" (立). The character for "picture" (图) without the "mouth" radical (口) becomes "winter" (冬).
"beginning of winter!"
Congratulations! You answered correctly and passed the level!
Liu Ruyan smiled sweetly, then turned and left.
Seeing that all three disciples of the immortal Gu Xuan had answered the questions successfully undoubtedly gave a boost of confidence to the anxious disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land.
A late-stage Supreme Realm inner disciple mustered his courage and stepped forward.
He reached out and pulled out a fortune stick, his expression immediately lighting up with joy.
[Good fortune in Chinese astrology!]
[Please solve the puzzle within half a cup of tea!]
[Sitting is standing, standing is standing, walking is standing, lying down is standing—guess the animal.]
......
Upon hearing this, the inner disciple was suddenly taken aback.
This question...
Didn't Fang Li already answer that?
Then he realized what was happening and couldn't help but smile.
I'm so lucky!
Ha ha!
Without hesitation, he gave the answer: "Snake!"
Little did they know.
The moment he read out the answer, not only did Fang Li show a look of pity, but the other disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land who understood also showed a hint of regret.
The venerable Guiguzi never played by the rules.
How could you possibly set the same question twice in a level?
It's obviously a trap!
The answer isn't a snake, though the words look somewhat similar.
In fact.
A closer look reveals the problem.
One is lying down, and the other is standing, so the real answer is "horse".
[Wrong answer, fail the level, die!]
The inner disciple, who was in the midst of his joy, was stunned upon hearing this!
How did I answer incorrectly?
Impossible, absolutely impossible, isn't it a snake?!
