Master Fu does not envy immortals

Chapter 167

No one dares to be dissatisfied.

When everyone had just entered this world and hadn't gotten used to it, Jiang Qiongxing, who was used to playing RPG games in his previous life, had quickly extracted key information from this passage, and made a rough guess about the background setting of this world.

The 1 of them, in the setting of this story, were the ones who lived on the "Mountain of Begging God". The mountain collapsed, and everyone else died except them. Now they are also prisoners, and their life and death are all in the hands of this person in front of them.

Jiang Qiongxing looked at the tall and thick iron railings all around, and his heart was as cold as the water underneath.

...What a miserable start.

Seeing the silence under his feet, the prince nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "Although you are traitors in the mountain of seeking gods, you are somewhat capable. The Shenrui Dynasty has decided to leave 1000 people among you to pray for our court, and to perform crimes and meritorious deeds—if you are willing, please stand up!"

Hearing this, Jiang Qiongxing said, "What about the remaining 9000 people?"

She believes that it is impossible for the academy to screen out nine out of ten at the beginning.

"The rest..." The prince sneered, "The natural disaster is still going on, and I will set up an altar in three days to offer a hundred thousand flesh and blood to the gods."

There is no doubt that they are one of the one hundred thousand flesh and blood.

There was a commotion in the dungeon.

"You should feel honored to be the sacrifices of the gods." The prince said arrogantly.

In this way, there are two paths in front of everyone, either to become a sacrifice after three days, or to "take the blame and make meritorious service" and become a member of this Shenrui Dynasty.

"I, I would like to be one of those 1000 people and pray for the dynasty!"

"And me! My cultivation base is high!"

"I can too!"

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, the prince smiled with satisfaction.

He clapped his hands, and there was a creaking sound, and a huge platform slowly dropped from the top of the water prison, pulled by four thick iron chains, hanging in the midair of the water prison.

"Those who are willing to submit to our dynasty, go up!" He smiled maliciously, "After a stick of incense, the 1000 people who can stay on the top will be the winners."

In an instant, water splashed in all directions in the prison, and countless figures scrambled to rush up.

The huge platform kept shaking in mid-air, and the iron chains rattled, which showed how fierce the competition was.

In this chaotic moment, a group of people standing in the water, not moving at all, seemed very abrupt.

Jiang Qiongxing wiped the splashed water on his face, scanned around, and found that Ji Cheyu and Shangguantao did not go up either.

Forget about Ji Cheyu, she asked Shangguan Tao who swam over, "Why did you stay?"

Shangguan Tao came to her side, and honestly confessed: "I wanted to go, but when I saw that you didn't move, I gave up."

Ji Cheyu on the other side said: "It's right not to go, this trial is not that simple."

He looked at the huge platform above his head. There were screams and collisions of various magic weapons, and some people fell off the edge of the platform and fell into the water.

The lucky ones rushed forward and continued to fight, and the unlucky ones were eliminated.

"There is no spiritual energy here. After their spiritual power is exhausted, they can only fight hand-to-hand, which must be even more tragic." Jiang Qiongxing looked away and rubbed his arm.

The flimsy fabric was soaked in water, and it felt chilly against the body.

She didn't move much, but Ji Cheyu quickly noticed: "Is it cold?"

"Fortunately."

Ji Cheyu's eyes lingered on her for a moment, then looked away: "Let's find a way to get out as soon as possible."

Shangguan Tao looked at him when he heard this, and seeing that he didn't intend to fight on the platform, he couldn't help asking: "How do you get out?"

"There are still three days before the sacrifice, enough for us to escape." Jiang Qiongxing said.

Since the trial gave them two options, it is impossible for this second path to be hopeless.

The time for a stick of incense passed quickly.

Everyone on the platform was panting heavily and was covered with scars. Although no corpse was left behind, the water prison was filled with a strong smell of blood.

The prince had seen enough, and stopped in satisfaction: "Okay, you thousand warriors will become the priests of our Shenrui Dynasty, and preside over the ceremony for our dynasty three days later!"

After speaking, the iron chain went up, and the thousand cultivators left the water prison just like that.

The camps are opposing.

Jiang Qiongxing thought silently.

One side is the priest, the other side is the sacrificial offering, and the seniors of the academy want to make troubles beyond words.

After taking away 1000 people, the prince left, and the dungeon became silent again.

The guards watched the rest condescendingly.

Jiang Qiongxing scanned the entire water prison.

Although the prince only wanted 1000 people, there are only about 7000 to [-] people left in the water prison, and many of them were seriously injured, which shows how brutal a fight just took place.

Panting, Qin Songzhu of Xun Haozong supported an injured fellow student beside him. He had the ability to become one in a thousand, but he resolutely gave up his qualification to leave when he saw that a junior was injured, and brought his junior back down.

It seems that Huo Ye and the people from Jade Dragon Palace all left successfully, but Gongsun Yu remained in the water prison.

He was still moving towards Jiang Qiongxing calmly, but Ji Cheyu nailed him in place with a single sentence: "Why didn't you go with Yulong Palace and the others?"

Not to mention walking together, during the scuffle just now, this person had no intention of getting on that stage at all, and he was one of the few people standing in the water like them to watch.

Gongsun Yu smiled very friendly: "I think it's more likely to win by following you, why not cooperate together?"

"Forget it," Jiang Qiongxing said coldly and held grudges, "I don't want a companion who stabs a knife in the back."

"That's wrong. We were opponents in the last round. Isn't it natural to draw swords? Besides, I didn't take advantage of it." Gongsun Yu didn't feel ashamed of his behavior at all, and said calmly, "But if we cooperate, it will be different. I believe I must be the best companion."

Whether it was Jiang Qiongxing, Ji Cheyu or Shangguantao, they performed very well in the first two rounds, and everyone in the water prison surrounded them one after another, faintly treating them as the backbone.

In fact, Wei Jinfeng and Wei Yulu were also brothers and sisters, but although they were ranked high, they still looked like children, so they were ignored by everyone.

A female cultivator looked around the crowd: "Since we are going to escape, shouldn't we choose a leader first?"

The disciple of Xun Haozong said without hesitation: "In terms of leadership ability, our senior brother is naturally the best at it, so you can rest assured to follow us!"

"This statement is wrong," Gongsun Yu was the first to jump out to object, "Your senior brother Xun Haozong naturally puts you first in everything, how can you be fair?"

He spoke grandiosely, but in fact, the little Jiujiu in his heart calculated loudly - the leader who can lead everyone to escape will inevitably become the focus of the eyes of the seniors of Danyan Academy who are watching the battle at this time, and he must not easily give up this opportunity.

Soon another casual cultivator said: "Friend Gongsun doesn't have a teacher, so he must be able to do this. In my opinion, it's better to let Fellow Daoist Gongsun be the leader."

"Tch, there are so many casual cultivators, why should you listen to him?" Shangguan Tao snorted.

Naturally, Gongsun Yu couldn't say that I wanted to be one, so he smiled modestly and said, "Shangguan Taoist friend is right, this matter should be discussed in the long run."

The female cultivator who spoke first said anxiously: "Where can I think long-term at this time? I don't want to soak in this dirty water for several hours."

"In my opinion, it's better to listen to what No.1 said in the first two rounds." Shangguan Tao said.

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Jiang Qiongxing and Ji Cheyu.

Coincidentally, the number one of the first two trials was there.
