"Brother Zhong, there's something wrong with this trial."
As soon as he came out of the illusion, Mu Yawen looked worried and spoke in a serious tone.
"How do you say that?"
Zhong Yi looked as if he was still unsatisfied.
If Mu Yawen hadn't called him, he would have continued the trial.
After dying a dozen times, he felt he had figured it out.
If he were to continue running, it would probably not be a problem for him to break through 100 steps.
"The monster in here... I can't kill it!"
“…”
Zhong Yi felt like his head was about to explode.
"Is there a possibility that it is not meant to kill..."
"We are a dignified and upright sect. How can we not kill the demons and monsters we see?"
Mu Yawen refuted with confidence.
“…”
Zhong Yi was speechless for a moment.
"Junior Brother, this is a trial designed specifically for outer disciples to hone their survival skills."
"That's why! Outer disciples can't defeat monsters at this level, so they can only flee!"
"Yes, that's the truth."
"Then why not let them temper their bodies at Tempering Gold Peak first? A strong fist is the only way!"
“…Just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
"But this trial is quite unique, and the escape process is very interesting. No wonder it's so popular."
"Oh? So Junior Brother Mu also tried to escape? How far did he get?"
Zhong Yi raised his eyebrows, feeling a little proud.
He was about to brag about how he had almost reached the 100-step mark when Mu Yawen suddenly answered:
"I ran 103 steps."
“…”
"Senior Brother, what about you?"
"By the way, why hasn't Junior Sister Li come out of the illusion yet? Could it be that she's encountered some problem?"
Zhong Yi quickly changed the subject.
At this time, Li Moran on the side frowned slightly, as if he had encountered difficulties.
"It seems that Junior Sister Li's life on the run isn't going well either!"
Zhong Yi felt at peace again.
Normally, no matter how hard or difficult the test was, he never saw his junior sister's expression change at all.
Now, in "The Escape of the Demon Cult", he actually frowned?
Of course, even geniuses have weaknesses.
Then it is understandable that I lost to Junior Brother Mu.
As a fellow wanderer, Zhong Yi suddenly felt a little comforted.
At this moment, Li Mo Ran suddenly opened his eyes.
It seemed as if he had just emerged from a fantasy world.
"Junior sister, how do you feel?"
Zhong Yi immediately showed concern for her cheerfully.
"There's no trace of the demon in this illusion. It must be the work of some master."
Li Moran nodded lightly and said.
"I noticed you looked a little uncomfortable just now, but did you encounter any trouble during the trial?"
"It's not that much trouble."
Li Moran did not hide anything and answered calmly:
"But after three thousand steps, the speed at which the road changes increased very quickly... and then there was another fork in the road. There was no warning, and if you chose the wrong one, you'd die. I was just a little confused."
"...You mean, Young Master Duo? You ran three thousand steps???"
Zhong Yi thought he had heard wrongly.
He thought he was awesome after running a hundred steps, but his junior sister ran three thousand steps?
The gap between true teachings is greater than that between humans and dogs!
"As for the final result... it's 1,300 steps."
There was no trace of showing off on Li Moran's face, and he answered casually.
"Brother, I remember the number one on the leaderboard only had 4,000 steps."
Mu Yawen reminded her.
Zhong Yi retreated in a hurry just now and didn't notice that there was such a thing as a ranking list.
When I opened it, I saw that the first place had become Li Moran's name.
The second place was an inner sect disciple, whom he happened to know. He was a Jindan stage cultivator and his score was over 3,900 steps.
The third place was an outer sect disciple. Although he didn't know him, he knew that the highest level of an outer sect disciple would not exceed the foundation building stage, but his result was also more than 3,800 steps.
Fourth place, eighth place...
…
The more Zhong Yi looked at it, the more he felt that he looked like a clown for being so complacent just now.
