Ron went over to open the window, but just as he did so, he frowned and then pretending as if nothing had happened, he slowly closed the window. Then he walked over to Karuman and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Uncle Karuman, someone had come into our room through our window.”
Karuman nodded in appreciation and said, “How did you know?”
Ron said, “Because when we left, I tied a strand of hair to the window. But now, the window is not open, but that strand of hair is broken. Someone must have come in here.”
Karuman said, “Continue to check if there is anything amiss in our room.”
Hearing this, Ron went around and checked. He definitely would not have lost anything, because everything they brought was in Ron’s Storage Ring. Karuman himself also had one. Everything in the room belonged to the hotel itself. Ron searched and found nothing, so he shook his head.
Then Karuman waved at the bottom of the bed, and a black thing the size of a finger flew out and landed in Karuman’s hand. Ron said puzzledly, “What is this?”
Karuman said, “This is an unorthodox thing. It contains a kind of intoxicating fumes. He has placed it under the bed. If you touch this thing when getting onto the bed, it will release the intoxicating fumes. These intoxicating fumes are very powerful and those below the Great Archmage level will lose their combat ability if they inhale sufficient amounts of the intoxicating fumes.”
“Huh? That powerful?” said Ron, horrified. If he had come alone, he would have been hit this time.
Karuman snorted and said, “Hmph, this is a very rare item. It is very troublesome to make and very expensive. Even an ordinary assassin cannot afford to use such a thing. It looks like these people have really invested a lot in order to obtain the Blue Jade Badge.”
“Ah? They know we have the Blue Jade Badge?”
Karuman shook his head and said, “No, they don’t know. They’re just casting their net wide. If they can find a Blue Jade Badge, then all their efforts would be worth it, and they could even make a huge profit.”
Ron said, “This is too impertinent. This is Blue Jade City. Doesn’t anyone care?”
Karuman smiled and said, “Even if there are people in charge, they would have to be able to deal with it. Moreover, if we’ve come here for the trial, and can’t even protect our badges for the trial, then there’s no need to go into the mystic realm.”
Ron was instantly speechless. Karuman placed the device for the intoxicating fumes into his Storage Ring and said, “Young Master, if those people come in tonight, you can do whatever you want with them. I will not interfere. As long as the matter is not blown up, it doesn’t matter.”
Soon, it was late at night, and there was silence. The window latch of Ron’s room was suddenly being moved. Soon, it was unlatched, and the window was opened to a gap. Then two lean figures, in night clothing, crawled in and landed silently. Then, the two of them looked at the two persons sleeping soundly on the bed. They immediately looked at each other and smiled. Then, the two of them pulled out their daggers and walked separately toward the two of them. Usually, they would finish off the people first and then slowly search for what was on their bodies. However, just as the man in black walked up to Ron and was about to attack, he suddenly saw Ron open his eyes. Before he could shout in surprise, he saw a flash of blue light in Ron’s hand. A gust of cold air passed directly through his body like an arrow. His entire body froze into an ice popsicle. Then, this gust of cold air continued to fly toward the other person. Before he could react, he was also frozen to death. The gust of cold did not stop but continued to fly toward the ceiling. There was instantly a loud thud. It sounded as if something heavy had fallen to the ground and smashed into pieces.
Immediately, someone shouted loudly. The patrol officers also came running when they heard the shouting. When they entered Ron’s room and saw the two dead men in black, they knew what had happened just from looking at their clothing. Ron, on the other hand, looked like the kind of person who had come to participate in the trial. Then, the two patrol officers only asked some questions before carrying the two corpses away, and that was the end of the matter.
The next day, when Ron and Karuman came downstairs, the people in the hall looked at them with awe when they saw them. Some of them quickly turned their heads away, afraid to look at them.
The two of them left the inn and came to a ferry point which had already been specified beforehand. Several very luxurious magic airships were parked here. These were the airships specially provided by Blue Jade City for those participating in the trial to get to the trial venue.
The two of them stepped forward, and just as the guard was about to say something to stop them, Ron pulled out the Blue Jade Badge, causing the guard to swallow the words that had come to his mouth. He examined the badge for a while in surprise, and then let Ron pass. Even Karuman gave a similar badge to clear the checkpoint together.
“Damn, such a person actually has a Blue Jade Badge?”
“They are probably some lucky small power. Who cares what they’re doing? They’re just here to deliver food.”

As soon as they got on the airship, Ron heard a few disdainful comments. Ron ignored them completely.
Who are really the ones delivering food, we’ll know after the mystic realm trial.
Then, he entered his cabin and tried not to come into contact with these people.
In a short while, the magic airship had already taken off with a slight tremble. As they got closer and closer to the mystic realm for the trial, Ron could not help but become a little nervous. After all, he was only a young man not yet 20 years old. When he just boarded the airship, he already saw many powerful figures with just a quick glance. These people were all his competitors for the trial, and might even be his mortal enemies. Moreover, they were all geniuses nurtured by many large factions, and they would certainly have many magical weapons and defensive equipment on them. He had to be careful when dealing with them. However, thinking of magical items, he touched the magic robe he was wearing which looked very ordinary. This was that platinum-tier magic robe. It looked very ordinary only because it had concealed all the spiritual light. Even Karuman had not discovered anything special about this robe.
This had been specially prepared by the Old Ancestor for him. In order not to disappoint the Old Ancestor and the expectations of the entire family clan, he had to not only come out alive from this Blue Jade Mystic Realm of Trial, but also become stronger..
