/N: thank you for the gift: ArrogantDisciple.

/suggestion don't hesitate to speak out.

nP.S.: webnovel would auto-delete comments containing curse words so have creativity when typing your ** :D

nP.P.S.: yeah only I can curse freely and this is **ing awesome...)

n——

n'That was a hell of a kick…' I thought.

nWell, what else would you expect from Hu Anjing? She has this competitive personality and when someone tries to show her they are better at something, she would try to prove them wrong.

nWell, I can't fault her because I have the same mentality and I would try to get the best result at any and every chance.

nLooking in front of me, I saw Hu Anjing coming this way with a big smile on her face. That smile was so sweet that I almost forgot that she one-hit K.O.-ed someone moments ago.

nI say almost because as Hu Anjing was getting closer, the other disciples around me subconsciously got away from me as to not get in Hu Anjing's way. At that moment I remembered her performance again.

n

"Are you trying to keep up with my record of finishing with one move?

" I asked her with a raised eyebrow.

n

"Junior Uncle, why does everything has to be about you?

" she answered back playfully.

nI was stunned for a moment.

n

"Fair enough.

" I nodded at her.

n'Does that mean I am narcissistic?' I was thinking about it.

n'Nah, I don't think so…' I throw the thought away.

nHu Anjing who saw me sitting on the chair, sat on the chair on my side and unbeknown to me, just kept looking at me as she tried to figure out my inner monologue.

nI turned to face her and saw that she was looking straight into my eyes.

nI was taken aback.

n

"Why are you looking at me like this?

" I asked her with a little unease. I mean I have nothing against her but 'looking at him when he is in thought' is one of the first symptoms of going full-on yandere, so yeah I have to pay attention.

n

"Is 'I fell for your charms' an acceptable answer?

" Hu Anjing answered me with her teasing tone.

n'Thank god, she is the same as always.' I could finally breathe out with some peace of mind.

n

"No, but I let it slide this time…

" I shrugged.

nAfter a few seconds, I remembered something.

n

"By the way, do you know anything about the inside of this Eternal wail trial?

" I asked her. The funny thing is that until now I didn't think about the 'who to pass the trial' and just know about 'how to get into the trial'.

nAs someone who has plan B for his plan B, I feel ashamed about myself in this particular scenario.

nI mean how am I going to progress inside the trial as I am now? I don't know anything and all of my storage rings have basic materials.

nWhat if the inside of the trial is snowy? What if it is always raining or it's a desert? I think the way I am now, I honestly have a low chance of survival in there.

nI need every bit of information that I can get my hands on.

n

"Now that you asked, I just know that it's a good opportunity for the younger generation…

" Hu Anjing answered. From her expression, I know that she too get my intent and she too was thinking of gathering information.

nAs an assassin, the worst environment to be in is one that you didn't study and don't know about. It is a basic fact in that profession. You have to know at least two ways out to enter a room so the fact that we know nothing of this trial is a red flag to her.

n

"We need to gather info and fast.

" I told her and she nodded with seriousness.

nI looked a the next matches and I didn't care about any of them except the one with Lai Xinyue and the other one with Jin Fen. Their fights were toward the end of the day so I had enough 'free' time before that.

n

"The best method that I can think of it is that each of us would ask around about the eternal wail trial and we get back together and combine our information with each other, what do you think?

" I asked Hu Anjing for her opinion.

n

"Let's do that.

" She nodded.

nAfter that, we went to ask about the details that could be helpful for us in the trial. As I was looking to ask someone, outer elder Zhong Zedong came into my eyes and I went ahead to ask him about it…

n

"Elder Zhong.

" I called out his name.

n

"Chief disciple Li, is there anything that I can help you with?

" He saw me and we greeted each other.

n

"There is.

" I nodded.

n

"Have you entered the eternal wail trials by yourself?

" I asked him the important question. If he doesn't have the hands-on information, it would be for the best that I ask someone else for this.

n

"Yes I have, why?

" he asked back.

n

"Great, I wanted to ask about the trial itself as I know nothing about it.

" I urged him to continue.

n

"Oh! I see. Well, this is one of those situations that having prior knowledge won't be that much of help but I can say the basic details if you want.

" He said and waited for my confirmation.

n

"By all means.

" I nodded.

n

"Well, it's like this…

" he started his explanation.

nFrom his words, I got to know that there was a reason for the sect and even Yuan Jia to not give out any information about this trial. Why? because it wouldn't be relevant.

nEternal wail trial has random entry points for everyone and as the trial is in a subspace, it has all seasons like a planet would and because of that, you have to be ready for anything.

nSo there are all kinds of climates there that could be where you find yourself in after you enter the trial and randomly teleport to a spot. Meaning that you don't know what would be your situation until you get inside it and luck would choose for you.

nWell, if I know something, it's that RNG is a bitch so I have to be ready to have the worst possible outcome of all.

n

"After all these years, why didn't we map this place?

" I asked him. I mean wouldn't it be super easy if we did so?

n

"The short answer is that it's not possible.

" Elder Zhong Zedong said.

nHe further explained that this inner world is constantly changing to the point that even the information of 5 years ago won't be of any use so after a while and finding no pattern at all, they decided to not waste time on doing so.

nNow you have an ever-changing world with harsh climates that you would be thrown in, It can't get any worse, does it?

nWell, it can and it does. There are beasts in this inner world that you would have to fight in order to get treasures, techniques, etc.

nThe way it works is that we think this inner space was created by a powerful entity that left some treasures waiting for worthy successors. The beasts are not real and are some kind of high-level illusion or something along those lines that would give you points according to their cultivation level when you kill them.

nUsing these points you would be able to open some formations with a predefined amount of gathered points. Behind these formations, you could possibly find all kinds of treasures from pills to martial art manuals and weapons.

nAt this point of explanation, I was utterly dumbfounded.

n'This is like an MMORPG and the formations are the level restrictions…'
