"The Lord of Hongsha City didn't make things difficult for you, did he?" After Li Xiu came back, Chu Jun hurried to greet him.
"No, he just wanted to talk to me about business." Li Xiu said.
"He negotiated business with you?" Chu Jun's eyes widened. "It's good enough that the man didn't kill you, but he actually did business with you?"
"Do you still remember the golf match that Zhou Bailong mentioned? The one betting with him was the Lord of Hongsha City." Li Xiu said.
"So, the Lord of Red Sand City wants you to represent him in that duel?" Chu Jun said with a wry smile, "This world is really amazing. After all the twists and turns, you still have to participate in that golf duel."
"There is no harm in participating, and the conditions offered by the Lord of Hongsha City are not bad. From now on, Chongshan City will nominally belong to us, and I can also use the trial gates under the name of the Lord of Hongsha City." Li Xiu said.
"The Lord of Hongsha City is so generous this time, is there any conspiracy?" Chu Jun said with some disbelief.
"Do you think he can take Chongshan City back if he doesn't give it to me? It's just a favor. As for those trial gates, someone helped him explore the way for free, so he didn't lose anything." Li Xiu smiled and said, "He is not just vicious, lustful and cruel to be able to lead the way for the Southern Cross Federation. Zheng Decai of Tyro City has been doing this for a short time before he can't do it anymore. He is more ruthless than Zheng De. Is there anyone in Hongsha City who dares to rebel against him?"
"That's true. He has been in control of Red Sand City for decades, and there haven't been any major problems so far. This is indeed extraordinary."
Chu Jun suddenly remembered something, looked at Li Xiu and asked, "What is inside the Purgatory Gate Trial Field?"
"Just like they said, there is nothing here, just a white room. You can come out after the trial time is over." Li Xiu said.
"So simple? Why can't those people get out?" Chu Jun was a little unconvinced.
"It's not that they can't get out, it's that they didn't wait until the end of the trial. The trial lasts for three days, but their brains have been affected. These three days are like 300 million years to them. The possibility of a person staying in there for 300 million years without going crazy or committing suicide is indeed very small." Li Xiu explained.
"Three hundred million years! It's scary to think about staying in that kind of place for three hundred million years. No wonder those who came out alive became crazy..." Chu Jun shuddered after hearing this.
"That man is not a madman, he is a genius, a very powerful genius." Li Xiu repeated his inference about madmen and cerebral palsy.
"So that's how it is. He is really a genius. He can actually use this method to break the slow motion of time in his brain. It's a pity that he is trapped in his own thoughts and can't get out. By the way, how did you get out? I don't think your brain is broken, and you are not like a madman who confines your thoughts to one thing." Chu Jun looked at Li Xiu and asked.
"As for me, I have a remote control. The trial field has slowed down the time, so I can speed it up and get out easily." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Tsk, you think you are God and can remotely control time." Chu Jun felt that Li Xiu didn't want to say it, so he didn't ask any more questions.
"Do you want to go and see the Gate of Purgatory?" Li Xiu asked.
Chu Jun shook his head like a wave drum: "I don't want to become a madman, and I don't have the ability to survive 300 million years. I'd better go to other trial gates to improve my strength."
"Speaking of this, I have a question for you. You are an E-level trial-taker now, right?" Li Xiu asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, is there any problem?" Chu Jun looked at him puzzledly.
"What was the quality of your embryo when you first became an E-level trial-taker?" Li Xiu was a little concerned about this question.
When he became a true trialist, his embryo quality was 1. If everyone's embryo quality is 1 when they become an E-level trialist, then what is the meaning of his previous trial enhancement? Is it just to get the contract?
"0.9, what's yours?" Chu Jun said with some pride.
"I am 1." Li Xiu replied.
"1? Are you sure?" Chu Jun was shocked.
"Is there any problem?" Li Xiu was a little surprised as to why Chu Jun had such a big reaction.
"Of course there is a problem. The quality of the embryo cannot reach 1. The most is 0.9. There may be a gap within 0.9. There are also some hidden values that are not displayed, but those hidden values are only a few tenths of 0.0. No trial-taker's initial embryo quality can reach 1." Chu Jun said.
"Why can't it reach 1?" Li Xiu still didn't understand why it couldn't be 1.
"First of all, you need to know what the concept of 1 is. Let's put it this way, if the quality of the embryo is compared to gold, you have seen gold of 999% purity, but have you ever seen gold of 100% purity? Does such a thing exist?" Chu Jun made an analogy.
"You mean, embryo quality is not completely equivalent to physical quality, it is more like a certain purity of the body?" Li Xiu understood a little.
"Yes, what you said is probably correct. The quality of the embryo is not completely equal to the physical quality. Just like you said, it is also a manifestation of purity. Have you ever seen something that is 100% pure? Anyway, I have never seen a trialist's embryo quality reach 1. If you really are 1, then I can only say that you are too strong, and you will become stronger and stronger in the future."
Chu Jun continued, "When you are promoted to D level in the future, the quality of the embryo needs to reach 2. When you are promoted to C level, the quality of the embryo needs to reach 4. When you are promoted to B level, it will be 8. When you are promoted to A level, it will be 16. You can do the math. My current quality is 0.9. If I double it every time, how much less will I have than you when I reach A level?"
"Both of us are A-level, but I only have 14.4, 1.6 less than you. If there is an S-level, you have 32, and I only have 28.8. This is because my embryo quality is already top-notch. Can you imagine how much less than you would have for those with lower embryo quality?"
"Why don't they strengthen their bodies to the best before upgrading their levels?" Li Xiu asked the question in his mind.
"Do you think they don't want to? That's because their bodies have been strengthened to the limit and can't be strengthened any further. They are only 0.7, not because they don't want to be higher, but because they can't improve any higher. Their purity can only reach that level. That's why when you said you were 1, I couldn't believe it, because I have never seen a trial-taker who can reach 1, at least I haven't heard of it. People always have flaws and can't be so perfect, so there is no perfect original embryo quality." Chu Jun looked at Li Xiu with a complicated expression, and asked in disbelief: "Is your original embryo quality really 1?"
"Really?" Li Xiu said with a smile, "So I'm pretty good."
"That's very impressive." Chu Jun thought for a moment and said, "But you'd better not tell others that your embryo quality is 1. You know that being too good can sometimes be a sin."
"Got it. What's your current embryo quality?" Li Xiu naturally understood this truth, and he didn't think it was anything worth bragging about.
"It's 1.6 now. It's really difficult to improve the quality of the embryo. Some trial rewards can increase it by 0.1, and some trial rewards can't increase it at all. The further you go, the harder it is to improve. I generally don't go to E-level trial projects now, because they are almost useless for improving the quality of the embryo. Only those above D level have a little effect, and they are the final attribute rewards. Those small enhancement rewards in the middle can only improve the hidden values at the back, and the front ones will not change." Chu Jun said with some pain.
"Then why don't you try to improve the level of the symbiotic contract, so that you can level up together. For you, it shouldn't be difficult to get some gems or magic cores to raise the level of the symbiotic contract, right?" Li Xiu was still a little puzzled.
"This is the disgusting thing about the symbiotic contract. Because we and the symbiotic contract are one, if the quality of our embryos cannot be improved, no matter how much the symbiotic contract eats, it will not be able to improve." Chu Jun explained the details clearly.
"Oh my god, so this is how symbiosis works. In other words, the quality of the symbiotic contract is determined by the quality of our embryo. It cannot exceed our quality?" Li Xiu discovered that his previous understanding was somewhat biased.
"That's right. On the contrary, the Parasitic Contract doesn't have this restriction. As long as there are suitable gems or magic cores, their levels will increase quickly. However, the improvement of the Parasitic Contract is not completely without restrictions. Because it is not symbiotic with us, each time they are promoted to a higher level, they need a special opportunity, unlike the Symbiotic Contract which can be promoted with us." Chu Jun gave Li Xiu some knowledge about the Parasitic Contract.
"How did you become a trial-taker when you don't even know these? Didn't you study these before you went to the trial field?" Chu Jun looked at Li Xiu in confusion and asked.
"I never thought about becoming a trial-taker before. It's completely accidental that I'm taking this path now." Li Xiu said helplessly.
"This surprise of yours is really unexpected. The quality of the embryo is 1, and you have a glorious magic spirit and a handful of dazzling magic spirits on your body. Why don't I have such a surprise?" Chu Jun rolled his eyes.
"Is this a surprise?" Li Xiu threw two dazzling black death magic rings to Chu Jun.
"What do you mean?" Chu Jun frowned.
"When we enter the trial field together in the future, you can't always let me explore the way, right? Your inspiration skill means that you can only walk in the front, so save your life first." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Then I won't be polite." Chu Jun's expression suddenly turned from gloomy to bright, and he took the two magic rings with a smile: "What quality of magic is this? It can't be the same as you and Ah Fei, both are brilliant magic rings?"
Chu Jun just said that. He didn't think that Li Xiu really had so many brilliant magic spirits that he could give him two at once.
The magic ring is extremely rare at the moment. Many A-level trial-takers that Chu Jun knows may not have a Brilliant Magic Ring.
Li Xiu didn't say anything. After Chu Jun used two magic rings, he suddenly widened his eyes and said, "Oh my god, they are all Brilliant Magic Spirits. Where did you get so many Brilliant Magic Rings? How many Brilliant Black Death Demons have you killed?"
"Not many, maybe a few thousand." Li Xiu handed a bag of Brilliant Black Death Demon's magic cores to Chu Jun. "Use this to upgrade them to D-level. The chance of awakening skills will be a little higher."
"Have you really killed thousands of Brilliant Black Death Demons? How many times have you entered the Black Death City?" Chu Jun felt something was wrong no matter how he thought about it. Li Xiu should not have entered the Black Death City so many times.
"The Black Death City I entered once was different from the ordinary Black Death City. The Black Death Demons that came out of it were all Brilliant-level in groups..." Li Xiu recounted the situation of Blood Moon Black Qi Death, but did not mention the tablet of the God of Death.
Chu Jun was stunned, and after a while he said, "It's only you who can make it out alive. If it were me, I probably wouldn't even make it to the last round... No... I might not even make it to the tenth round..."
"Try first and see if your Black Death Demon can awaken its skills." The Black Death Demon that Li Xiu had given to Sha Chu and A Fei was not able to awaken its skills after it was promoted to D-level.
When Chu Jun heard what Li Xiu said, he immediately became excited and fed the magic core given by Li Xiu to the two black death demons.
After eating about ten pills, both Black Death Demons began to upgrade, but when one Black Death Demon upgraded, only some black light flashed on its body, while the other Black Death Demon was completely covered in black flames.
"Awakened skills...haha...this Black Death Demon has awakened the death virus innate skill..." Chu Jun laughed proudly.
In the next few days, the Lord of Hongsha City arranged for his confidants to take Li Xiu and Chu Jun to play in Hongsha City. Li Xiu was not in the mood to play, so he asked the Lord of Hongsha City for information about the Trial Gate and studied it alone in the room.
The Lord of Red Sand City owns more than thirty trial gates, but only a dozen of them have been truly explored. Among these dozen, no more than five have been fully understood, and the information on the others is not very complete.
Li Xiu just studied it for a bit and had no plans to go there for the time being. He wanted to go to the Haitian Trial Field first and get the Blood Pattern Revolver back.
Before that, Li Xiu didn't plan to touch any other contracts.
Because Li Xiu couldn't be sure that if he picked up other contracts, they would be affected by the twin talents and directly become his symbiotic contracts.
On the day agreed upon with the Lord of Hongsha City, Li Xiu went to the appointment carrying his backpack.
The Lord of Hongsha City personally brought Li Xiu to a trial gate. Zhou Bailong, Mr. Yu whom he had met before, and his group of bodyguards were all there.
Zhou Bailong was slightly startled when he saw Li Xiu following the Lord of Hongsha City.
"Old Zhou, there's no need for me to introduce this person. He's representing me in this trial." The Lord of Red Sand City smiled with his eyes narrowed.
"Brother, I didn't expect to see you here again. I was sorry for what happened before." Zhou Bailong said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Mr. Zhou, there is no need to do this. Everyone has the right to choose." Li Xiu said with a smile. He really didn't mind. He had nothing to lose anyway.
Zhou Bailong shook his head and said nothing more. He pointed to a man next to him and introduced him to the Lord of Hongsha City: "This is the trialist Shu Wei who is participating in the trial on my behalf."
Shu Wei has a square face and looks very serious and mature. It is hard to tell how old he is, but he looks to be around 30 years old.
The Lord of Hongsha City narrowed his eyes and stared at Shu Wei for a while, then said with a smile: "It turns out to be the Shu Tianwang from Guyue City. It's rare that you can find him here. It seems that you are determined to win this duel."
After that, the Lord of Red Sand City smiled and said to Li Xiu, "You may not know this Shu Tian Wang yet, but he is a famous trialist in Guyue City and is already a top-level trialist of Class A. I heard that he is very good at ball trials. He once made 100 three-pointers in a row during a basketball trial, which was quite accurate. I wonder if he can be as accurate in playing golf as in basketball."
Li Xiu knew that this was the Lord of Red Sand City telling him the information about his opponent. Li Xiu thought to himself, "For an A-level trialist, according to the theory mentioned by Chu Jun, his embryo quality should be at least ten or above. The gap is a bit big, but this trial is a golf match. No matter how strong his physical fitness is, it will not affect me. Besides, you cannot hurt your opponent during the trial, so it doesn't matter what level he is."
Li Xiu had studied the rules thoroughly before and did not think that A-level trial-takers had any advantages in such trials.
Both sides took out gems and asked their servants to inlay them on the trial gate. The gem they used was tourmaline, a green tourmaline.
Tourmaline comes in many colors, including red, green, blue, yellow and other colors. Among them, red, green and blue are the most popular.
Li Xiu saw that the green tourmalines had a very strong luster and he probably knew that it might be the electric green of green tourmaline, which was brighter and more fiery than ordinary green tourmaline.
"It's not too late for you to quit now. You can't beat that man." While the Lord of Hongsha City and Zhou Bailong were standing together and talking, Mr. Yu walked to Li Xiu and whispered.
"Are you representing yourself or Zhou Bailong?" Li Xiu asked.
"Boss Zhou had no choice last time, and I feel very guilty towards you, so I asked me to come here and tell you that Shu Wei is not only of a high level, he also possesses a unique skill that gives him a huge advantage in this trial. He absolutely cannot lose. If you quit now, you still have a chance of survival." Mr. Yu said in a low voice.
Li Xiu wanted to say something, but the trial door had already opened, and the Lord of Hongsha City was calling Li Xiu over.
Li Xiu had no choice but to walk over and after thinking for a moment, he decided to participate in this trial.
Because he didn't know whether what Mr. Yu said was true or false, maybe it was just a plan by the other party to make him give up.
Moreover, since Li Xiu had already promised the Lord of Hongsha City, he was unwilling to go back on his word.
Seeing Li Xiu and Shu Wei entering the trial gate together, Mr. Yu and Zhou Bailong smiled bitterly at each other.
"What a pity for this person." Zhou Bailong sighed.
"Boss Zhou, you have done your best. Just be at peace with yourself." Mr. Yu said.
In their opinion, Li Xiu was doomed to die because Shu Wei possessed a skill that could score a goal with 100% certainty. Li Xiu's football skills were amazing, but he was only a human being after all, and humans make mistakes sometimes.
However, Shuwei's skills are fixed and will never go wrong, so there is no possibility for Shuwei to lose.
"Shu Wei has a skill that is 100% sure to succeed, right?" The Lord of Red Sand City, who was standing on the other side, suddenly spoke up.
"You know?" Zhou Bailong and Mr. Yu were both stunned.
"Making one hundred three-point shots in a row, is it possible for a human without any skills to do that?" The Lord of Red Sand City laughed.
"You knew you would let Li Xiu go in and fight him?" Zhou Bailong frowned.
"Why not go in? I think he can win." The Lord of Red Sand City said calmly, "Do you dare to make another bet with me? If it is Shu Wei who comes out, I will give you the entrance to the Manluo Mine."
Zhou Bailong initially thought that the Lord of Hongsha City was joking, but when he heard that the Lord of Hongsha City was gambling with the entrance to the Manluo Mine, he knew that he was not joking.
That was one of the important gem mines in Hongsha City. How could he possibly bet on a losing game?
