In the pitch-black tunnel where they could not even see their own hands, Su Ya and Lin Bai slowly groped their way forward.

After a long descent, the tunnel finally showed signs of moving upwards. This meant that the two of them were gradually returning to the surface.

“We’re about to go out.” Lin Bai felt the end of the tunnel, so he stopped and kindly reminded Su Ya. “Close your eyes, or you won’t be used to the sunlight outside.”

Nodding her head, Su Ya closed her eyes obediently.

Creak. Creak.

Lin Bai pushed open an extremely heavy door with great difficulty. As the sound of the door opening rang out, intense sunlight shot over mercilessly.

The two of them, who had been trekking through the dark tunnel for a long time, felt a piercing pain in their eyes.

After a few minutes, when the stabbing pain gradually subsided, Lin Bai opened his eyes tentatively and observed his surroundings.

“This is… a mountain?” Lin Bai looked around and sighed in amazement.

What Lin Bai saw was a winding path that seemed to lead straight to the top of the mountain. Furthermore, at the edge of the path was a bottomless valley.

Falling from here was enough to crush a person to pieces.

“We seem to be halfway up the mountain.” Su Ya opened her eyes and regained her vision. Then, she estimated the distance between the foot and the peak of the mountain.

“Let’s go up,” said Lin Bai.

Compared to the foot of the mountain, it was more natural for the venue of the Elementary Test to be set at the top of the mountain.

Just like that, the two of them began to walk along this path with difficulty.

The path was steep. Lin Bai had not even walked far before he began to pant.

“Is this a test of our stamina?” Lin Bai could not help but grumble.

If this continued, they would probably collapse from exhaustion before they reached the top of the mountain.

The Hunter Elementary Test had been filled with all sorts of abnormalities since the beginning.

About halfway through the journey, Lin Bai and Su Ya decided to stop and rest for a bit. Otherwise, they would truly be exhausted.

The two of them sat on a large rock and stretched their muscles.

After regaining his energy, Lin Bai looked around and found a wooden sign on the right side of the road.

“Magical beasts are wandering about at the top of the mountain. Be careful!”

“Magical beasts?” Lin Bai licked his lips as complicated emotions appeared in his gaze.

Su Ya had also noticed the wooden sign and exchanged worried glances with Lin Bai.

The moment he met Su Ya’s gaze, Lin Bai’s originally complicated gaze immediately became firm. Then, he gave Suya an encouraging look.

Since they had already come this far, they had to grit his teeth and persevere.

So what if they faced magical beasts? A giant like the Master of the Swamp had collapsed under his hands.

Thus, there was nothing to fear about a mere magical beast.

“Let’s continue walking. There’s no need to be afraid. As Hunters, isn’t our mission to face magical beasts?” Lin Bai looked at Su Ya and said with certainty.

Su Ya nodded her head and followed Lin Bai closely. Then, they continued towards the peak.



In the hall.

The upper echelons of the Hunter’s Association were still seated around the round table as they continued to observe the process of the Elementary Test.

However, everyone was in a trance.

This was because they simply could not figure out how these two people from Sorcha College could be escorted by the Ice Cabin.

After all, the captain of the Ice Cabin, Sol, was not a promiscuous man.

“Come to think of it, the Lord of Gu Luo Town isn’t a pushover either.” The white-robed old man was close to his prime, so he knew a lot about the Hunter Elementary Test.

The blond middle-aged man was enlightened by the white-robed elder. “Do you mean Old Crane? Ever since I joined the Hunter’s Association, I don’t recall anyone being able to pass through her trial.”

“There are even rumors that Old Crane has single-handedly lowered the passing rate of the Hunter Elementary Test. Right now, the Hunter’s Association seems to be considering replacing her with a simpler test.”

The white-robed old man coughed and laughed a few times. “Hahaha, that question of hers was never orthodox. The last time a Hunter passed her test was a few years ago.”

“No matter what, although I don’t know how this kid tricked Sol into escorting them… Their glory should end here.” The white-robed old man’s tone was still full of contempt.

In his heart, he did not believe that Lin Bai and Su Ya had relied on their own abilities to reach this stage.

“Let’s see how they are going to suffer under Old Crane’s hands.” The blond middle-aged man said with a smile.

Lin Bai and Su Ya’s performance in front of the black-robed elder was witnessed by everyone present.

“Congratulations on passing,” announced Old Crane casually. However, this caused a huge wave in everyone’s hearts.

“?!”

The white-robed elder, the blond middle-aged man, as well as all the high-leveled figures present were shocked speechless.

To exaggerate, they had witnessed history today!

After a few years, there was once again a Hunter’s team that managed to pass through Old Crane’s test!

The blond middle-aged man’s face was in so much pain that he couldn’t say anything. Instead, his cheeks were burning hot.

Just now, he had spouted nonsense and mocked Lin Bai and Su Ya’s team.

The more he had mocked them, the more awkward he felt.

“Let’s continue watching… That was just a verbal answer. I want to see if they can still laugh so happily in the real battle.”

The blond middle-aged man naturally didn’t want to admit that there was a problem with his judgment. He could only continue to stubbornly insist on his opinion.

“Then let’s wait and see. To put it simply, the passing rate of the next test is quite high. However, there is a hidden test that no one has passed in the past 30 years.” The white-robed old man said with a smile. Now that it had come to this, he had some interest in this team of black horses.



“We’ve reached the peak.” Lin Bai took the final step before letting out a long breath.

The steep path had finally come to an end.

“There’s a cabin up ahead.” Su Ya pointed at the forest at the top of the mountain and exclaimed.

“Is there someone living on this mountain?” Lin Bai was confused.

He was already exhausted from climbing halfway up the mountain.

If someone really lived at the top of the mountain, wouldn’t they lose half of their lifespan when they went down the mountain?

Going back and forth… This was something he didn’t even dare to imagine.

This person lived in seclusion here. Could they be some otherworldly expert?

As the two of them approached the wooden cabin, they could faintly hear a strange sound coming from within.

“Is this the cultivation of an otherworldly expert?” Lin Bai thought to himself.

Then, a figure emerged from the wooden cabin.

When they saw the figure clearly, the two of them were dumbstruck.

That was…

A magical beast??

Had a magical beast run out from the wooden cabin?

What was going on?

Also, why did that magical beast seem to have a person in its mouth?

Was the magical beast taking away the otherworldly expert?

What sort of development was this!

Lin Bai’s brain worked quickly. Then, he immediately commanded, “I’ll go chase that magical beast. You go check out the situation in the wooden cabin!”

Su Ya nodded and the two of them split up.

Su Ya pushed open the door and rushed in, only to see a pool of blood.

Lying in a pool of blood was a woman. Su Ya did not know whether she was dead or alive..
