"Honestly, I never thought you will really defeat that ancient weapon. You actually only need to stall for more time against the ancient weapon and crack the puzzle on the last gate to pass this trial."

Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain and thought: 'Do you really think it was easy to stall for the time against that horrible thing and cracking the puzzle on the gate while at it?! That monster almost tear me apart so many times when I fought against it before! If I accidentally made just one single slip, that monster would have already turned me into minced meat by now!'

"Sigh... But this ending might be good for that ancient weapon since it might be a form of release for it. That ancient weapon is actually a dead lizard beast, but we, Human Race decided to use it as an ingredient to create a perfect weapon to fight Undead Race because of its sturdy body."

"By using its sturdy body as a vessel, we smelted the reinforced steel into its sturdy body to make it more powerful and sturdier, then we attached the high-ranking flame source as the energy source. Unfortunately, the shortsighted Beast Race forbade this kind of practice, and the project was forced to shut down in the end."

The archaic voice sighed as he sounded so disappointed and frustrated.

However, Tang Li Xue's slender body shuddered violently instead after she heard the words from the archaic voice, and her mouth also twitched in dissatisfaction.

'So, this is the reason why Beast Race hates Human Race so much. Human Race is always disregard everything to reach their objective like always! Tsk, tsk, tsk... How can they use the dead body to create something like that?!' Tang Li Xue complained in her mind.

But she did not want to waste her breath to argue with the will of a dead person, so she decided to not say anything back.

"Anyway, you have passed the third trial, the Trial of Wits, so you have the right to take the fourth trial, the Trial of Talent and Aptitude."

"Just like before, the fourth trial will be even more dangerous and difficult than the third trial, so you can decide to give up and retreat if you want."

"You can come out from the blue gate if you decided to give up. But if you decided to continue, you can proceed forward and enter the red gate in front of you."

"The fourth trial, the Trial of Talent and Aptitude, will begin as soon as you enter that red gate, so you can take your time to rest and think your options wisely for now."

The archaic voice stopped speaking again after he explained everything to Tang Li Xue, and the two gates appeared in an instant in front of Tang Li Xue for her to choose from.

There was a red gate in front of her that would bring her to the next trial, while the blue gate on her left side would lead her to retreat from the trial and exit the Crystal Palace Tomb.

Of course, Tang Li Xue never planned to retreat after she was going this far, but she still decided to take a rest for three days in this third trial last room to recover all of her injuries, Qi, and stamina first before proceeding to the next trial.

After resting for a few days, Tang Li Xue's Qi and stamina were finally restored completely, and all of her wounds also recovered. It could be said that her body, Qi, and stamina were already restored back to optimum condition.

"Test of wits and intelligence? What a big liar?! If I am not strong enough, I would still get killed even if I have high intelligence in this trial! I will never believe in that liar's words again!" Tang Li Xue nagged in displeasure.

"Trial of Talent and Aptitude, huh... Whatever... Strength seems like the only thing that matters in all the trials. I already went this far, so I hope my strength will be enough to pass all the trials." Tang Li Xue prayed as she pushed the red gate in front of her with her right hand while her left hand kept hugging Little Loki in her embrace, then she stepped into the next room behind the red gate vigilantly.

Surprisingly, there was only a vast empty room in the next room.

WWWEEEEEEEEEENNGGG~!!!

After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki passed the red gate and stepped into the next room, the red gate was disappeared in that instant, and Tang Li Xue could no longer retreat from this trial anymore.

Her only choice was only to pass this Fourth Trial, Trial of Talent and Aptitude before she could choose to retreat or to proceed again.

Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and searched for a clue about the fourth trial in the entire vast empty room.

After a few whiles, she only managed to find an old altar at the north side of the room, and there was a crystal orb floating on the top of the old altar.

The crystal orb was really eye-catching since it kept emitting mysterious faint white light and ancient aura.

"What should I do now? There is nothing in this room! That voice also did not tell me what to do in this fourth trial at all! Damn it! Should I just touch that crystal orb to enter the fourth trial?" Tang Li Xue grumbled while she kept staring suspiciously at the crystal orb floating on the top of the old altar.

Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips in hesitation.

Actually, she really did not want to touch this suspicious-looking crystal orb since no one will know what will happen after she touched it, but it seems she really has no other choice right now.

Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to push away her hesitation as she slowly stretched her left hand to touch the crystal orb.

PPPYYYAAAAAAAAAAASSSHHHH~!!!

The mysterious faint white light became blinding light the moment Tang Li Xue patted the crystal orb with her left hand.

Tang Li Xue quickly wanted to pull her left palm from the crystal orb in reflex, but she could not even move it at all as if her left palm was stuck with the crystal orb.

Nyaaaaaaan~!!!

Little Loki already vigilantly stood on Tang Li Xue's right shoulder and growled softly toward the crystal orb.

Just when Little Loki wanted to make its move to help out Tang Li Xue, the archaic voice suddenly resounded again in the mind of Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.

"Analyze complete... Cultivation at Rank 3 Acupuncture Opening Stage, the current age is under one year. Aptitude's final score is beyond excellent."

"Initializing the fourth trial, the Trial of Talent... Build a suitable model as the target's opponent... Complete! The fourth trial starts!"

After the archaic voice stopped talking, Tang Li Xue could already remove her left palm from the crystal orb, but she still did not dare to drop her guard even for one bit since the archaic voice said that the fourth trial has officially started now.

The crystal orb also stopped shining so brightly and returned back into its dim light once again.

But Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to care about the condition of the crystal orb since she already put all of her attention to the center of the empty room where something seems crawling out from nothingness.

"I understand now! So, this room is the same as the sparring room in the Education Department at Myriad Foxes Academy! It can also project something out from nowhere." Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in understanding.

Tang Li Xue quickly took out the [Scepter of Disaster] from her space pouch and gripped it tightly like a sword, then pointed it toward the center of the room.

When Tang Li Xue already fully prepared herself to face whatever horrible creature that will come out to face her in this fourth trial, she was made completely dumbfounded by the appearance of her opponent in front of her.

Eaaahh~! Aaahhh~! Oooooh~!

Well... It was actually a cute-looking male baby with a bald head who wore baggy white clothes...

Tang Li Xue: .....

Little Loki: .....

Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were too speechless and dumbfounded to even react.

They only kept staring at the cute-looking male baby for a few moments without moving or say anything as their brain still slowly processed what was in front of their eyes.

Eaaaaaaaahh~!

The cute-looking male baby looked the scene around excitedly for a while, then he seems to be attracted to Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, so he immediately crawled toward them.

Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped backward to keep her distance from the cute-looking male baby and vigilantly pointed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward the male baby.

"That was really close! I almost got cheated to drop my guard because of his cute appearance. This... tiny creature should be my opponent for this fourth trial, right? So, he deliberately put this kind of deceitful appearance to let me drop my guard?! What a horrible devious scheme!" Tang Li Xue said as cold sweat started to pour from her forehead.

Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she braved herself to attack the cute-looking male baby and brandished the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward him while shouted: "Take this, you deceitful creature~!"

SMAAAAAAAAAAACK~!!!

Although, Tang Li Xue thought and said something like that, but she clearly did not have the heart to hurt or attack the male baby so her [Scepter of Disaster] only smacked the male baby's head lightly.

But despite that, the male baby still rolled back a few times because of Tang Li Xue's smack, and he started to sob while staring at Tang Li Xue with a wronged expression.

OOOEEEEEE~!!! OOOEEEEEE~!!! OOOEEEEEE~!!!

Then the male baby began to bawl out loud uncontrollably...

Tang Li Xue: .....

Little Loki: .....

Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki became speechless and dumbfounded once more since they did not know what to do anymore.
