Chapter 100

"Never mind, if the heavens really want to take my life, I can't do anything about it." After a moment of deep thought, Jiang Yi stopped worrying and turned his gaze to Qian Wanguan, asking, "What's the second thing?"

Qian Wanguan secretly admired Jiang Yi's composure. If it were an ordinary person, learning that an unbeatable enemy wanted to kill them would certainly cause great panic. However, Jiang Yi remained calm, a rare quality indeed.

He paused for a moment and said, "The Ten Thousand Ancient Valley Tianjun Tomb will open in a month. I estimate that the academy will set the biannual Blood Trial there! After all, the Tianjun Tomb only opens once every fifty years, and it's a rare opportunity."

"Tianjun Tomb? What is it?"

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow. The title of Tianjun was given only to the mightiest of the mighty, like the Slaughter Tianjun. The tomb of a Tianjun was extremely revered; who would dare to desecrate it? How could the academy set the Blood Trial inside a Tianjun Tomb?

"Boss, you don't know."

Qian Wanguan explained, "The Ten Thousand Dragons Valley Tianjun Tomb is a very special place. It's located at the border of the Divine Martial Kingdom, the Great Xia Kingdom, and the Holy Spirit Kingdom, an area where no one has jurisdiction. Ten Thousand Dragons Tianjun was an unparalleled strongman from twenty thousand years ago. He loved treasures and almost collected all the supreme treasures, martial techniques, and secret arts of the continent. Due to a physical illness, he had no children, so after his death, he placed all the treasures in the Tianjun Tomb and sealed it with powerful restrictions, opening it once every fifty years. Any martial artist below the Divine Traveler Realm can enter to seek treasures. It's one of the three greatest treasure sites on the continent."

"I see..."

Jiang Yi suddenly understood. It seemed that this Ten Thousand Dragons Tianjun wanted future generations to seek his treasures, so it wasn't a desecration of a supreme strongman's remains. However, Jiang Yi was still puzzled, "A tomb can only be so big. Twenty thousand years have passed. Even if only martial artists below the Divine Traveler Realm can enter, wouldn't the treasures inside have been completely taken by now? How can one undergo the Blood Trial there?"

"Ha ha!"

Qian Wanguan laughed heartily and said, "Boss, you're too naive. Do you think the Tianjun Tomb is just a small tomb? Inside, there's a huge mysterious space. My family members who have entered before said that the space inside is beyond your imagination. Even if ten thousand people enter, they couldn't explore it all in a year. Moreover, treasures are randomly released from the inner chamber, and no one has entered the inner chamber yet..."

"Is it that amazing?"

Jiang Yi was half-believing, half-doubting, but he felt a faint excitement. Who doesn't like treasures?

Moreover, if he passed the Blood Trial, he would become a regular student. After passing another Blood Trial, he could become an elite student. When the Heaven Rank healer Master Liao returned, he could ask Su Ruoxue to help him treat Jiang Xiaonu. Once Jiang Xiaonu was cured, he could immediately leave with Jiang Yunhai, find a place to hide, and plan their next move.

However, his mood soon turned serious. After all, if he went to the Tianjun Tomb for the Blood Trial, he would have to leave the Spirit Beast Mountain Academy. Although there would definitely be mentors leading the way, it would be easier for Jiang Niliu to make a move outside...

Qian Wanguan saw Jiang Yi's concern and nodded heavily, "If the Blood Trial is set in the Tianjun Tomb, Boss, you will be in great danger. Even with the academy's guards accompanying you, once you enter the Tianjun Tomb, you will face certain death! So, Boss, I personally suggest that you abandon this Blood Trial."

"Abandon?"

Jiang Yi shook his head and said firmly, "Impossible! I must quickly advance to a regular student. How can I abandon it? And is it really safe inside the academy? The problem will come sooner or later, and you can't avoid it. Didn't you say the Tianjun Tomb is very large? You might not even encounter Jiang Niliu's people inside."

Qian Wanguan sighed and said no more. The matter wasn't yet confirmed, so there was no point in discussing it now.

...

Qian Wanguan's prediction was accurate. A few days later, the academy announced that this Blood Trial would take place in the Tianjun Tomb, led by Dean Qi. For probationary students, obtaining any three treasures in the Tianjun Tomb would count as passing the Blood Trial. Regular students must obtain six treasures, and elite students must obtain twelve to pass.

The academy also solemnly announced that the Tianjun Tomb was extremely dangerous. Many Purple Mansion Realm martial artists from the three kingdoms would enter, and students would face constant danger. They were advised to enter with caution, and the academy would not be responsible for any deaths.

The academy's message was clear: they would ensure safety on the way to the Tianjun Tomb, but once inside, they would not be responsible for any deaths, and the chances of dying inside would be very high.

After receiving this news, Jiang Yi, despite Qian Wanguan's advice, immediately went to the guidance office to register. He found that many people were willing to take the risk, and the number of registrants quickly reached several hundred...

When Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan returned to the West Courtyard, they unexpectedly found a familiar figure outside. A white palace dress enveloped a perfect figure, and a cold, beautiful face showed no emotion, but her beautiful eyes occasionally flashed with urgency.

"Jiang Yi, you registered?" Seeing Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan return, Su Ruoxue's eyes instantly turned cold. After Jiang Yi nodded, she shook her head and sighed, saying nothing as she left.

Sasa!

Just as Su Ruoxue left, two figures quickly approached from a distance. One was a bronze-skinned man, and the other was a masked black-clothed girl. The man shouted from afar, "Jiang Yi, don't register for the Blood Trial!"

"Brother Zhan, I've already registered." Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan exchanged glances and said with a bitter smile.

Zhan Wushuang pursed his lips, fell silent for a moment, and then said coldly, "Then we'll go together. With me, you'll be much safer."

Jiang Yi bowed in gratitude and nodded, "Thank you, Brother Zhan."

Zhan Wushuang left with Zhan Lin'er. As Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan entered the courtyard, a bright yellow figure appeared again. Jiang Yi was quite surprised to see Ji Tingyu, not expecting her to come looking for him.

Ji Tingyu stood at the door without entering, looking at Jiang Yi from a distance and said, "Jiang Yi, don't go to the Tianjun Tomb, or you will be buried with the Ten Thousand Dragons Tianjun!"

Jiang Yi smiled faintly, "I must go to the Tianjun Tomb. Being buried with such a person as the Ten Thousand Dragons Tianjun would be an honor for me."

"Ah, then I wish you a smooth passage through the Blood Trial! Good luck!"

Ji Tingyu shook her head and sighed, turning to leave. Jiang Yi watched her beautiful back, feeling a slight warmth in his heart. No matter what happened in the future, at least Ji Tingyu still considered him a friend, so he would naturally recognize her as a friend.

Knowing he was in danger, so many people came to advise him, showing great concern. Jiang Yi felt very comfortable. Coming to the Spirit Beast Mountain Academy, he had at least made a few friends.

"Boss, you should still withdraw from the Blood Trial!"

Qian Wanguan, after much thought, still felt something was wrong and advised again, "If Jiang Niliu is determined to get rid of you, and the Jiang family and the Changsun family join forces, my strength is too low, and my family won't let me enter. Zhan Wushuang definitely won't break ties with the two families for your sake..."

"Relax, Wanguan."

Since he had already made up his mind, Jiang Yi was now more determined. He smiled faintly, patted the little fatty's shoulder, and said with a smile, "I promise you, I will definitely come back alive this time. No one can take my life, not even Jiang Niliu!"
