Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Chapter 141 The Trial Begins

The day of the Inner sect trial arrived quickly. I had recovered completely. Being an alchemist certainly had its own benefits. With the numerous spirit herbs that I had recently acquired, I was able to make any pill that I needed.

"I forgot to take the badge to become an alchemist! Damn it. Now I need to go there before the Cai family does something!" I realized.

But all of that was no longer that important. I needed to go to the trial for the Inner sect. I expected that all of the other disciples who were caught in the fight also recovered.

The spirit pills that Ji Ki'er had given out were no ordinary pills. They were pretty expensive Qi supplementation Pills that were useful up to the Core Formation Stage! I did not jump onto them like all the others did, but I understood the value of them.

The venue was the exact same one for my previous trial. It was the huge colosseum. But this time, it was packed completely.

I got the directions right this time, and I saw people wearing all sorts of robes. This once in three year event was bigger than I expected.

I noticed master on the top, looking down at the participants. Not all of the Outer Sect disciples were participating. Many of them knew their limits, and knew that they had no chance at all to enter the Inner sect.

But every single new disciple was in it. I also noticed that Ji Riyal was in this round. I walked toward him.

"Senior Brother Riyal. I did not know that you also were attempting to enter the Inner Sect." I said.

"I was forced to leave the main trial a month ago, so I could not aim for the top prize. Master said that it was unfair if I participated against you people. On the meanside, in the month that you disappeared, it seems that you have grown much stronger. You have grasped the power of Dao. And properly, this time." he looked at me with surprise.

"I had a few fruituous encounters. But I am still nothing against you. With you participating, I think that I have no chance of getting to first place." I chuckled.

"Well, let us see. Maybe your coldness will freeze my sword. But maybe I will cut you down. I only hope that there are not too many injuries today. My attacks can be quite deadly." he said with a calm tone. There was no arrogance in his voice. Only concern.

"Exactly how powerful is he? For him to be so confident?" I wondered.

"It looks like the Inner Sect Trial are about to start." he pointed at the judge who was entering. The judge was probably a deacon from the Inner sect.

"Why are there so many spectators? I thought that only the elders would see this to look for a disciple." I wondered.

"Why, you ask? Because this is where the competition arises. The strong ones don't care about the Inner sect trials. But the sect does not just hand out freebies. We need to work for them. That means that the higher the rank, the more resources we get. In the Inner sect, the Silver Rankings are everything in the Inner sect." Ji Riyal said.

"I see. And who is at the top?" I asked.

"Hong Jimin. He is at the top of the Nascent Soul Realm. Just a step forward and he will be able to enter the Xiantian realm. But pity. Master said that he is too indulgent in mortal pleasure, and the path of cultivation does not favor him." he said, shaking his head.

"The Inner Sect Trials that all of you have been waiting for are here. It is time for the every one of you to enter, and see who shall brave through the odds and enter the Inner sect!" the deacon at the center said.

His voice was calm but loud. And the entire crowd roared. The participants roared. It was not like we were in a sect. It was like we were at a concert and a show was being put on.

"Every single one of you is randomly assigned a number. Let us see who will match with who." the deacon rose up, and he started throwing what seemed like blue lights towards us.

We were obviously not supposed to dodge them. I saw a few light flying towards me. But unlike the other lights, they were constantly flickering, and were moving around, as if someone was trying to push them around.

I glanced at the deacon, but he did not seem to know about any of this. I turned around to look at the elders. That was when I realised that the second elder, who was supposed to be in the Frozen Earth prison, was sitting in the audience, and was glaring at me with rage.

He did not want me to enter the Inner sect, and he was trying to match me up with someone that was too strong for me to handle.

I looked around once. There were hundreds of people here. I needed to survive at least six or seven rounds if I wanted to get a rare spot at the top ten. This was too stressful. There could be more anamolies like Ji Riyal that were too strong for me to handle.

"Come on. Someone must notice him rigging the field."  I looked at my master. He was also looking at me, and I saw that he waved at me slightly.

"Don't worry about the second elder. Just make sure that you do your best. You are no longer useless. You may be weak, but not in this crowd. I will make sure that you will get what fate has in store for you." I heard master whisper in my ears, even though he was there at such a distance.
