"What are you laughing at?"

Zhou Xun walked up to Li Ze. He was naturally displeased with Li Ze and had restrained himself several times earlier, but didn't expect Li Ze to walk right into his crosshairs.

"Nothing."

As a soldier, one must maintain proper disguise in front of the enemy.

Li Ze did this very well.

"Next time, don't let me catch you, or you'll be in for a beating."

After punching Li Ze, Zhou Xun turned to Lonely Wolf.

Tang Rao had seen many dogs like Zhou Xun, so he was used to it.

"This punch really hurt me."

Li Ze communicated with the other two.

Tang Rao heard and handed Li Ze an elixir pill.

"It's for pain relief, I think you'll need it."

Was he cursing Li Ze to take another punch?

"Boss, better not, I'll be more careful next time, no problem."

Li Ze really didn't want another punch.

"Alright, suit yourself."

Tang Rao gladly saved an elixir pill.

Twenty-six people walked to the teleportation array.

The fourth area originally had twenty teleportation arrays. Based on the number of people who passed in previous years, there was no problem using all twenty arrays. But this year was particularly dismal, only half were used.

Each group's teleportation array maps didn't differ much, and the levels of immortal beasts were fair—it's all about the skills of those who entered.

Lonely Wolf feared that those behind would tamper with things, so he stood on the teleportation array first, followed by Zhou Xun.

Tang Rao deliberately stood at the last position.

He didn't have the habit of exposing his back.

The teleportation array transmitted everyone over one by one.

Fortunately, the array was excellent, no bumps along the way.

"Arriving so quickly is a bit unsettling."

Old Crane had failed three times at the fourth area; he hoped to succeed this time.

Seeing the familiar environment, he felt quite nostalgic.

"Elder, you've come here so many times—every time there's someone collecting protection fees, every time someone sabotages?"

Tang Rao was full of questions.

He didn't know he'd hit Old Crane's sore spot.

"Three times I've come. The first time was for protection fees—not paid, nearly killed. The second time, the team battled immortal beasts—unsuccessful. Third time, finally subdued the immortal beast, but lost in the arena. If I lose again this time, I will never join such trials again."

Failing the trial is minor; failing and being laughed at afterward is major.

"It's okay, this time we'll pass together, take down these bastards and see how arrogant they can be."

Tang Rao was boasting to comfort Old Crane.

He believed his abilities weren't stronger than Old Crane's, yet he spoke about leading Old Crane to success.

"Alright, big brother, I trust you entirely—you've got all my hopes."

Old Crane really believed Tang Rao, hearing him call him big brother, made him feel ashamed.

"Stop muttering behind, nobody knows when and where the immortal beasts will appear, stay alert."

What?

You don't even know when or where the immortal beasts will appear, yet you dream of being the leader.

If it weren't for considering your prowess, I'd definitely demand you return my thirty thousand immortal stones.

But returning the immortal stones is only a matter of time; everyone knows Tang Rao—like wind, can be blown in but not pulled out. There's no chance of him easily handing over immortal stones.

"Don't know where the immortal beasts are, what should we do? How about finding a way to lure them out?"

Who the hell came up with that idea?

Tang Rao squinted—turns out it was a minion from Lonely Wolf's side.

Well, only a minion from Lonely Wolf's side would dare propose such a 'conscientious suggestion'.

"Actually, that's a good suggestion."

Lonely Wolf's eyes rolled.

"I suppose everyone knows the immortal beasts are fierce, who dares to be the bait? You? You? And you?"

Lonely Wolf casually pointed to three people, scaring them with just a finger gesture.

"No, no, I don't dare."

"Neither do we, find someone brave, we are useless."

If Lonely Wolf said one more word, he'd squash them like jade pieces.

"Forget it, you worthless things."

Lonely Wolf spat directly onto their faces.

"Forget it, you three go ahead."

Lonely Wolf pointed at Tang Rao, Li Ze, and Old Crane.

This was going to be interesting.

"What?"

If luck is this good, not buying a lottery ticket would be a shame.

"It's you three, head forward and scout. If there's no gain, I'll kill you all."

"What?"

Did Lonely Wolf have a natural vendetta against Tang Rao?

Why be so hostile to Tang Rao and his group?

Even pointing all three out.

"Any objections?"

Who dares! If you tear me apart now, wouldn't that be making a spectacle?

"No, no, we'll go now, right away."

Searching for immortal beasts, you think I'm going to find them for you? I'm first going to see if there's anything good; if there is, I'll find them first. Then let's see what you can do to me.

"Alright, let's go first. Who doesn't know how dangerous immortal beasts are? If we die today, I'll accept it."

Li Ze and Old Crane understood Tang Rao the most; Tang Rao was so timid that the world's changed.

"Okay, we'll listen to you, one life. If we lose it, so be it."

Alas.

They put on quite the act; Tang Rao almost bought it.

If still on Blue Star, he might have at least snagged a little gold man.

Tang Rao walked in front, Li Ze and Old Crane on the sides.

The three walked side-by-side, resembling travelers on a perilous journey.

They were filled with despair.

Until they left Lonely Wolf's divine sense circle.

"Finally not with them anymore."

Tang Rao took a deep breath of fresh air.

"This is an invisibility cloak I found in the Immortal Emperor's mausoleum, one for each of us. We better not follow the same path as Lonely Wolf; he's a madman, capable of anything."

The trial opportunity only comes once a year, reaching the fourth area, giving up now would be such a waste.

"Invisibility cloak? How do you use it? I've never worn one before."

They only knew about the invisibility technique, which had limitations; as long as divine sense was stronger, the stronger side could discover the weaker side through divine sense. Compared to the invisibility technique, it wasn't very practical.

"I know what you're worried about. The invisibility cloak is from the Ancient Immortal Emperor, without those drawbacks. Do you think anyone's divine sense is stronger than the Ancient Immortal Emperor's?"

Of course not, at least for now, no one can reach that level.

"Such a good thing, let me try first."

Li Ze first donned an invisibility cloak, going unnoticed by Tang Rao and Old Crane, who also tried—it was impossible to track Li Ze.

"This thing works great."

Tang Rao and Old Crane donned the invisibility cloaks.

It was strange—wearing the cloak, Tang Rao could see the other two, and others did the same.

"Let's go."

Tang Rao led, Old Crane and Li Ze found they could see Tang Rao and eagerly followed him, heading toward the eerie canyon.
