Treasure Hunting

Chapter 45 A Bizarre Hole

The twenty-six disciples who were eligible for the intermediary contest needed to wait for three days before it started. The three-day wait was intentional so that they'd have more than enough time to rest.

The intermediary contest was more comprehensive. It tested for the disciples' ability to perform well under pressure and in danger. And for this purpose, the location for the test was agreed to be the Burial Forest. It was known as a naturally perilous place. Those who passed the intermediary contest would qualify for the runoff.

The Burial Forest was a place full of martial beasts. A long time ago, the region where the Welkin Sect was located was in constant threat from martial beasts. The ancestors of the Welkin Sect spent an enormous amount of effort to eliminate the threat and chase off the remaining martial beasts to the Burial Forest. Disciples were then assigned to guard the entrance of the Burial Forest to prevent martial beasts from escaping and hurting residents nearby.

Although the Burial Forest was known as a dangerous place, most of the powerful martial beasts were killed by the ancestors. The remaining martial beasts were not too powerful anymore. Any disciple at the premium stage of Mortal Level was able to survive in the forest.

In case anything unexpected happened during the test, a few stewards were assigned to monitor the progress of the test to ensure the safety of the disciples.

Even though they were assured of their safety, all the disciples except for Zachary were terror-stricken while they stood at the entrance to the dark Burial Forest.

"Take care when you enter! Once you are faced with danger, remember to call for help, but this will mean you fail the test as well." After Gray explained this to the disciples, he asked the disciple behind him to give the participants the signal fireworks, which could be used to call for help.

And then, the twenty-six disciples all went into the Burial Forest.

The eight disciples who survived inside the forest longer than the rest would be eligible for the runoff. The eighteen disciples who surrendered to the dangers of the forest would be eliminated.

The other twenty-five disciples all went towards different directions, leaving Zachary alone standing at the same spot.
