Li Xiu: Trialist.

Grade: Aurora.

Grade: E.

Original embryo quality: 1.1.

Symbiotic Contract: Evil Spirit Card (Glorious E-level) Forbidden Spear (Glorious E-level).

Symbiotic Talents: Twins in One Body, Seven Taboos of Not Killing, Ultimate Light.

"I'm not a demon spirit, but I actually have a rank. And what does this Aurora rank mean? Aren't there only four levels: flowing, shining, dazzling and glorious?" Li Xiu felt a little confused.

There is also an additional Ultimate Light in his talents, which is obviously his own talent, not the symbiotic talent given to him by Qi.

Li Xiu tried to use the Ultimate Light, and his body suddenly emitted a strong transparent fluorescence, which was a pleasant surprise for Li Xiu.

True trial-takers themselves have no rank; their rank depends on their symbiotic contract.

What grade is the symbiotic contract? When using the symbiotic contract, the trial-taker will be blessed by the grade of the symbiotic contract, which is also the grade.

And only when using the power of the symbiotic contract can light energy be generated in the body.

Just like the halo emitted from Sha Chu before, it was actually the light energy generated by her symbiotic contract, which could play a certain defensive role.

Humans cannot produce this kind of light energy on their own. Now Li Xiu's body can produce light energy without the help of the symbiotic contract. The existence of the symbiotic contract has little impact on him.

Even without the symbiotic contract, Li Xiu can continue to grow based on himself.

"What Ah Fei said is true. My body now really does look a bit like a demon spirit." Li Xiu smiled bitterly to himself, but he knew in his heart that his body did not really turn into a demon spirit. The young demon spirit was just parasitic in his body and did not merge into one with his body.

Li Xiu packed up his things and walked out of the Abyss Base. Seeing Ah Fei standing at the exit, he hurried over.

"What is the quality of your embryo?" Li Xiu did not mention those things again, nor did he explain anything.

"0.9." The bandit answered truthfully.

"What grade is the symbiotic contract?" Li Xiu asked again.

"Glorious." Ah Fei stretched out her hand and the blue metal crossbow appeared in her hand, with blue lightning flashing on it: "It's called the Forbidden Crossbow."

"It's a bit similar to the name of my Forbidden Spear, but it doesn't seem to be the same type. The material and strength are a bit like the metal coffin I saw inside." Li Xiu summoned the Forbidden Spear as well, and it felt weightless in his hand.

This operation was very smooth. The two men achieved their goal and did not stay any longer. They summoned the Pink Nightmare and rode together away from the Sea and Sky Trial Gate.

On the way, Li Xiu kept thinking about the ultimate question of light.

The ultimate light is actually the result of the combination of those three strange lights, but it is not entirely a relationship between the three lights.

The Ultimate Light was also affected by Li Xiu's spiritual consciousness and the young demon spirit in his body. Li Xiu himself couldn't clearly explain what the properties of this light were.

Two people were walking in the woods, and the originally clear sky suddenly darkened.

Looking down at the sky, I saw a huge demon spirit covering half of the sky and flying slowly by.

The demon was grey in colour with streaks of grey light on its body, its shape somewhat resembled a manta ray, with a long tail that looked like an anchor with twinkling stars at the end.

This evil spirit was extremely large, and flew very slowly, as if it was swimming in the water. It took a while for it to fly over, and the sunlight began to shine again.

"The direction that the demon spirit is flying seems to be towards Hongsha City, right?" Li Xiu frowned slightly. He had seen a powerful demon spirit flying towards Hongsha City before, and now he saw another one. He didn't know if it was a coincidence or something happened in Hongsha City.

Chongshan City is not far from Hongsha City. Li Xiu was worried that Chongshan City would be affected, so the two of them sped up. After returning to Chongshan City, they did not see anything unusual in Chongshan City, so they felt relieved.

"Sha Chu, has anything happened in Hongsha City recently?" Li Xiu found Sha Chu and asked about the situation in Hongsha City.

"I haven't heard what happened. Didn't the Lord of Hongsha City give Chongshan City to you? Has there been any changes?" Sha Chu frowned.

"That's not what I'm worried about." Li Xiu recounted what happened when he saw the evil spirit on the road.

"It's strange. I haven't heard of the news that Hongsha City was attacked by evil spirits. According to the size of the evil spirits you described, if they attacked Hongsha City, it is impossible that no one would know about it." Sha Chu said thoughtfully.

The two thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so they had to quietly pay attention to the situation in Hongsha City.

"What's the situation on our side?" Li Xiu actually wanted to know whether the City Lord's Mansion had any income now, and whether there was enough money for him to buy gems to upgrade his magic spirit level.

"It's just barely enough to maintain a balance between income and expenditure. If you want money, you'll probably have to think of other ways." Sha Chu saw through Li Xiu's thoughts and said with a smile.

"Find someone to renovate the square and turn it into an arena." Li Xiu said after thinking for a while.

"Do you really want to hold a Magic Spirit Competition?" Sha Chu immediately understood what Li Xiu wanted to do and asked with a complicated expression.

"Of course we really have to hold it. Not only do we have to hold it, but we have to make it as big as possible. In the future, our Magic Spirit Competition will be the benchmark for magic spirits all over the world. At that time, trial participants from all over the world will bring their magic spirits to our place to participate in the competition. There will definitely be many people willing to spend money to watch the competition. At that time, we can make a lot of money just by collecting tickets." At this point, Li Xiu seemed to have thought of something again. He took out the map of Chongshan City, studied it carefully for a while, and said: "Now even if we circle the square, it can only accommodate 30,000 to 40,000 people at most. The scale is a bit too small. We need a larger place, including the area here, and at least make an arena that can accommodate more than 100,000 people."

"Do you really think there will be so many people coming to watch the Magic Spirits competition?" Sha Chu said with a sneer.

"Why not?" Li Xiu asked casually while looking at the map.

"Let's not talk about whether you will offend Changshengtian and other trial-takers by doing this. Even if they don't care about you, you will be making things difficult for others. With our current conditions, how many people will come to participate in the Magic Spirit Competition? If you really succeed, those big forces can hold a larger-scale Magic Spirit Competition. Both the conditions and the quality of the monsters participating in the competition will definitely be much better than ours. Do you think those people will still come to watch our Magic Spirit Competition?" Sha Chu analyzed.

"That's why we have to become the benchmark for the Magic Spirit Competition. Even if others hold Magic Spirit Competitions, they will not be recognized." Li Xiu thought for a while and said, "Oh, by the way, find someone to set up the Magic Spirit Competition website, and then make a Magic Spirit ranking list, just like the ranking of magic outfit masters."

"Do you really think we can do it?" Sha Chu felt that Li Xiu's idea was too naive.

Without high-level monsters participating in the competition, who would care about the ranking list?

"We won't know if it will work until we try it." Li Xiu pointed at the map and said, "Let's build a small arena here first, and then slowly expand it. In the future, we can include the entire area. We can build hotels, commercial streets, food cities and gem streets here. Since Chongshan City has no resources, we can let others bring wealth and resources here by themselves."

"By the way, the name of Chongshan City also needs to be changed. This will be our own territory from now on, and it would be awkward to use someone else's name." Li Xiu murmured.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say." Seeing that Li Xiu was so interested, Sha Chu didn't pour cold water on him.

Anyway, the entire Chongshan City was robbed, and the worst that could happen is that it would go bankrupt.

"Let's call it City of Light." Li Xiu said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, I'll have someone re-carve the words on the plaque on the city gate tomorrow." Sha Chu looked at the area drawn by Li Xiu and said, "This project is a bit large. Even if we build the square area into an arena as you said, it will cost a lot. You know, there is nothing here, and all the materials need to be shipped in. Do you have the money?"

When it comes to money, Li Xiu feels a bit of a headache.

"He has no money, but I do." Chu Jun walked in from outside, sat down and said, "I heard some of what you said just now. Li Xiu, how do you want to do it and how much money do you need? Give me a detailed quotation and I will take care of the rest."

"Isn't this a bit bad?" Li Xiu hesitated.

"What's wrong with that? You can contribute to this world, but I can't?" Chu Jun said seriously.

"Contribute to this world?" Li Xiu was a little confused and didn't know what Chu Jun was talking about.

Sha Chu also looked at Chu Jun in a daze. She wondered if this guy had a problem with his brain. Did what he said have anything to do with Li Xiu?

Chu Jun said sincerely, "I know what you want to do. Most of the trial gates in the world are controlled by those big forces. It is difficult for ordinary people to become trial takers. But this is not the key point. The key point is that ordinary people don't know what real trial takers and demons are. Most ordinary people are still frustrated and desperate for not being able to become magic outfit masters, but they don't know that there is a better way to go."

"Since you are willing to disregard your own safety and promote the Trialists and Magic Spirits to the whole world, so that people can recognize the true value of the Trialists and Magic Spirits, and risk your life to restore the reputation of the Trialists, what does my small contribution mean to you?" Chu Jun said excitedly, walked up to Li Xiu, and took Li Xiu's hand: "The Magic Spirit Competition of the City of Light will surely become a banner for the Trialists to go to the world. I don't have the courage to be the flag bearer, but please let me do something for you, for the City of Light, for the Trialists, and for the whole world. Please don't reject me."

Li Xiu stared at Chu Jun in a daze, not saying a word for a long time.

"Please don't reject me." Chu Jun said seriously again.

Li Xiu finally reacted, and he grabbed Chu Jun's hands with both hands, and said sincerely: "Comrade Chu Jun, history will remember your name, and you will definitely have a strong and colorful mark in the history of future trialists. Let us work hard together for this goal."

"Let's fight together." Chu Jun held Li Xiu's hand tightly and said excitedly.

"Sha Chu, calculate how much money we need." Li Xiu turned and looked at Sha Chu.

Sha Chu looked at Chu Jun and Li Xiu as if he was looking at two idiots.

"If we use red sand coins to calculate, it would be at least this amount." Sha Chu raised a finger.

She originally wanted to say that at least 100 million plus three zeros would mean at least 100 billion Red Sand Dollars. Although Red Sand Dollars were not valuable and could only be exchanged for tens of millions of space coins, less than 100 million, this number was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for the current situation of the City of Light.

No matter how rich Chu Jun is, if he is asked to take out tens of millions of space coins to invest in such an unreliable project, Chu Jun would probably have to think carefully about it.

Who knew that before Sha Chu finished his next words, Chu Jun said, "One trillion Hongsha coins? No problem. Give me a few days and I will convert the money into Hongsha coins and transfer it to you. By the way, give me an account number. The money should be in your account in about a week."

"..." Everyone in Shachu was a little dumbfounded. The more they looked at Chu Jun, the more they felt that he looked a bit like the stupid son of a landlord.

"Li Xiu, is one trillion enough? How about we do it in one step and build our Magic Spirit Arena in City of Light into the largest and best Magic Spirit Arena in the world? After all, this will be the holy land of Magic Spirit competition in the future..." Chu Jun was still worried that with such a small amount of funds, the arena built would not be big enough or good enough.

“It’s a little less, but after all, this is the first Magic Spirit Competition, and there shouldn’t be that many contestants. Let’s use it for now.” Li Xiu said with a smile.

"By the way, we need to give our arena a name, and the Magic Spirit Competition also needs a name..." Chu Jun discussed excitedly with Li Xiu.

Sha Chu looked at the two guys who were discussing excitedly, and for the first time he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with his life values.

Li Xiu and Chu Jun ignored her and discussed the various details of the Magic Spirit Competition together.

After Chu Jun left, Li Xiu also went out for a walk and came to the place where Ye Xiyuan was training.

Ye Yuzhen and Ye Xiyuan both moved to the City Lord's Mansion. Li Xiu allocated a separate courtyard for them, which later became an indoor training ground, where Ye Xiyuan now trains.

"City Lord." Ye Xiyuan, who was training, stopped immediately when he saw Li Xiu, took off his magic costume and came to Li Xiu, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Use this magic costume for training in the future." Li Xiu handed the ghost-faced magic costume to Ye Xiyuan.

Ximen Guan's S-class magic suit has not been completed yet, so Li Xiu plans to let Ye Xiyuan train with the Ghost Face Magic Suit first. Some techniques require such high-level magic suits to be practiced, such as the Angel's Wings and Hands of God that he often used before.

In the future, Li Xiu will spend a lot of time in the trial field and the trial land, and will spend very little time in the City of Light. There must be a magic costume master who can sit in the City of Light. Qingshan’s ability is not enough.

Moreover, Li Xiu has some other ideas, and may need Ye Xiyuan's cooperation in the future.

"This is your magic suit, I..." Ye Xiyuan hesitated.

"Put it on. Next, I will teach you some magic suit control techniques. This level of magic suit can be used." Li Xiu said.

Ye Xiyuan subconsciously followed Li Xiu's order, activated the Ghost Mask Demon Costume and put it on.

"Have you ever learned God's Angel Wings?" Li Xiu asked Ye Xiyuan.

"I've learned it, but I just couldn't master it." Ye Xiyuan said a little embarrassedly.

"You couldn't learn it before because the performance of the magic suit was not good enough. I also know a little about Angel Wings. You can try it according to what I say." Li Xiu instructed Ye Xiyuan to learn Angel Wings.

Ye Xiyuan’s talent is indeed very strong. Her talent is the second best Li Xiu has ever seen.

The first one is Bai Qiuyi. That guy is simply a natural magic costume master, and Ye Xiyuan is not much worse than him.

At least Li Xiu himself, he never counted himself.

Under Li Xiu's guidance, Ye Xiyuan quickly got the hang of it, but to truly learn it and apply it in actual combat, she still needed a lot of study and practice.

Li Xiu also knew that Angel Wings was not a skill that could be quickly mastered in a day or two, so he just told Ye Xiyuan to study harder and read more books.

Li Xiu planned to observe for a while, and if Ye Xiyuan performed well enough, he would start teaching her the Hand of God.

Having talent is one thing, being able to learn well is another, and being able to persist after learning well is another.

Ye Xiyuan’s talent is sufficient, but Li Xiu still needs to observe more about the other things.

Letting Ye Xiyuan practice on his own, Li Xiu walked out of the training ground. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Ye Yuzhen leaning against the gate.

"City Lord." Seeing Li Xiu coming out, Ye Yuzhen immediately stood up straight and saluted Li Xiu.

"What are you doing?" Li Xiu held Ye Yuzhen's arm.

"I know that those techniques are not something that every magic costumer can learn, but Xiyuan is able to learn them..."

Li Xiu interrupted Ye Yuzhen and said calmly: "I teach her because she is good enough. It has nothing to do with anything else. You have to work hard too. Come with me to the trial field tomorrow."

"Yes." Ye Yuzhen nodded heavily.

…

The Red Sand City Lord's Mansion.

There were raindrops floating in the sky, and the Lord of Hongsha City was talking to a man in a small pavilion beside the fish pond.

"Lord City Lord, your chance has come." The man said to the Lord of Hongsha City.

"It's hard to say whether it's an opportunity or not." The Lord of Hongsha City threw the fish food in his hand into the fish pond one by one, watching the fish fighting for it below.

"So many high-level demons have rushed into the old mine. There must be big stuff inside. Your chance is right in front of you." said the man.

"Is it an opportunity or a disaster? Who can tell?" The Lord of Hongsha City remained unmoved. He still scattered the fish food in his hand and fed the fish slowly.

"Lord City Lord, don't you really want to go and take a look? You have been in S-level for so long, and you really won't go any further?" the man frowned.

"When people get old, they have no ambition and are particularly afraid of death. The opportunity should be left to you young people." The Lord of Hongsha City scattered all the fish food in his hand, patted the residue on his hands, and said with a smile.

"In that case, I won't force you anymore. Goodbye." The man stood up and left without looking back.
