Chapter 5177: Raising a question

Everyone had expected this, and their spirits were lifted. They rubbed their fists and wiped their palms, eager to give it a try.
“Hehe, the trial Competition is an old tradition of the immemorial Alliance, and everyone is familiar with it. However, there are some disciples who are participating for the first time, so I can only say a few words and explain to everyone what the trial Competition is.” Xin Yijie laughed and continued,”as the name implies, the trial Competition is to prepare for the primordial trial. The purpose is to test if everyone’s strength is enough to participate in the primordial trial. This is also for everyone’s safety. After all, the primordial trial is extremely dangerous. If you’re not strong enough, you might die for nothing.” !!
“May I ask martial uncle Xin, what is considered sufficient strength? Could it be that they are divided into different realms? only those above this realm are qualified, and those below this realm are not qualified to participate in the archaic trials?” Someone asked impatiently.
“Not really. Although it’s simple and straightforward, it doesn’t fit the purpose of the trials. Everyone, remember that the trials are not a simple trial. There’s only one meaning to its existence, and that is to let the disciples with true strength stand out and become the key training targets of the ancient sects and families.” Xin Yijie paused for a moment and then added,””Of course, the strength I’m talking about doesn’t just refer to the level of the realm, but more importantly, the potential. You must know that a talented disciple with outstanding talent, even if he’s only in the early stage of the foundation building realm, his value is definitely not below that of a perfected foundation building expert.”
“Then how do we judge one’s aptitude and potential? Are you looking at the spirit root?” Everyone asked.
“Spiritual roots are only one aspect. It would be too narrow to only look at spiritual roots. After all, there are many so-called geniuses with outstanding spiritual roots who eventually lose out to others. Therefore, the higher-ups of the immemorial Alliance unanimously decided that only disciples with outstanding performance in actual combat are truly geniuses that are worth cultivating.” Xin Yijie said seriously.
“Actual combat? How do we use this in actual combat?” Everyone was confused. Although there was a Trial Competition before every archaic trial, the content of each Trial Competition was different. At first, there was a one-of-a-kind competition, but the recent ones were all different forms of competition. There were internal competitions of various sects, and there were also team competitions between sects. The format was different every time.
“Hehe, being able to adapt to the situation is also a must to test your ability. Please forgive this old man for keeping you in suspense. The trial Competition will officially begin in three days. At that time, I will explain it to everyone in detail. Everyone, go back and rest up and prepare yourself.” Xin Yijie said with a smile.
Everyone wanted to ask more questions, but Xin Yijie was their martial uncle-in-charge and a golden core cultivator at that. Since he had already said so, no one dared to ask any more questions.
However, Xue Jianfeng didn’t have such concerns. He was now an early Aurous core stage cultivator and didn’t think much of Xin Yijie anymore. He immediately said in a strange tone,””Martial uncle Xin’s words are very nice, but who knows if you’ll secretly tell your own people in advance? I’m afraid that’s not fair to everyone, right?”
Everyone was already mumbling in their hearts. After his instigation, their expressions changed. Everything else could be discussed, but they were still worried about the green cloud sect. Xin Yijie’s image had always been good, but no one would believe that he was just and selfless. At the very least, he would leak some information to the inner disciples of the green cloud sect in advance.
It didn’t seem like a big deal, but one was well-prepared, while the other was caught off guard. When it came to the actual Trial Competition, their performance was likely to be very different. Even if this was only wishful thinking of the people, but in this kind of big competition and examination, any little bit of unfairness would be infinitely magnified. Anyone would feel that they would become the victim, and eventually, the group’s emotions would be stirred up, and even go out of control.
“Xue Jianfeng, are you suspecting that I’m being unfair?” Xin Yijie’s expression darkened.
“I wouldn’t dare, but I feel that it’s better to be more open and transparent about things like the trial Competition, so that people won’t be suspicious of us behind our backs. I’m doing this for your own good, martial uncle Xin. What do you think?” Xue Jianfeng said casually.
“Yes, senior brother Xue is right!” Everyone responded in unison.
Xin Yijie didn’t dare to suppress the crowd’s excitement. He snorted coldly with an ugly expression.”Very good, you’re right. It’s a pity that I still can’t tell you the details of the competition because even I don’t know it yet. At present, I’ve only set the tone. As for the specific competition, the higher-ups of the immemorial Alliance are still discussing it. The competition will be sent here on time three days later, and the results will be revealed by then.”
Everyone looked at each other. Since even the higher-ups of the ancient Alliance were still discussing it, there was nothing to doubt.
“Do you have any more questions? It’s best to mention it together, in case someone gossips behind my back. ” Xin Yijie said as he looked at Xue Jianfeng. He’d been talking back to his martial uncle several times. Even if he had a mild temperament, he couldn’t really swallow his anger. He was already at odds with Xue Jianfeng.
If it were anyone else, they would’ve cowered long ago. However, Xue Jianfeng didn’t care about Xin Yijie at all. After all, he had too many things to rely on. Not only was he an early golden core expert, but he also had the Father of the snow sword sect’s vice sect leader. Most importantly, he had the support of the huge and mysterious organization Central. With his pride, it would be strange if he still held any respect for Xin Yijie.
“I still have one more question. Does everyone on the transit islands have to participate in the trial Competition this time?” Xue Jianfeng opened his mouth and asked, but his eyes were on Lin Yi’s group. He didn’t know that Lin Yi had already made up his mind to let everyone participate in the test. He was even worried that they wouldn’t take the bait.
“Not necessarily. The primordial trial has never forced anyone to participate. The same goes for the trial Competition. It’s up to the individual to participate. But if you give up on the trial Competition, it’s the same as giving up the chance to participate in the primordial trial.” Xin Yijie said indifferently.
The answer wasn’t surprising, but it made Xue Jianfeng’s face turn ugly. The plan he gave the doctor glasses had a basic premise, and that was that Lin Yi and the others had to participate in the test. Otherwise, he would be helpless.
However, this was different from the previous underwater mining. After all, participating in the trial Competition was not an unacceptable obligation for everyone present. Instead, it was a right that most people sincerely yearned for.
Because these people had occupied some cultivation resources on the transit islands, they had to participate in the trial Competition. This basically meant that since you had already taken some cultivation resources, you had to take more. It was not logical at all, not to mention gaining the support and support of the other disciples of the primordial Alliance. (To be continued.) ”
