Chapter 166: Beginning of the trial
“Elder sister Caidie is truly generous, she really is the Divine Wind Marquis’ daughter!”
Meng Yingying pulled out two jade bottles from the little box and continued to sing out praises. Pills that used level two Elixirs to refine were very valuable and couldn’t necessarily be bought even if one had money.
“Elder sister and I now have hope to break through the 2nd Awakened Soul Layer!”
Meng Qingwu looked at Chu Tian with a strange expression, “This young miss Feng seems quite familiar with you, she doesn’t just look like an acquaintance.”
Meng Yingying felt something was wrong when she heard this.
How could this be allowed!
She placed the jade bottle back in and slapped the cover back on. Her hands were on her hips as she said, “Speaking so frankly and not denying a gift at all. What is your relationship!”
The two sisters were working together!
Chu Tian revealed a helpless look, “Do you need to worry about this?”
“Nonsense!” Meng Yingying said in an unreasonable manner, “If we’re not strict on you, who knows how many girls you will kidnap!”
Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?
Chu Tian honestly told them everything.
Meng Yingying finally understood everything, “No wonder the Divine Wind Marquis would appear to save us after the Ye Family surrounded South Sky City! Elder sister Feng Caidie seems like a very good person! She is the Divine Wind Marquis’ daughter and has a respected and aloof status, you aren’t allowed to have any ideas or bully her, do you understand!”
“Alright, alright, I won’t have any ideas about her!”
Meng Yingying winked at her sister and revealed a triumphant smile.
When did this stinking little girl become a small tiger?
She’s really going against the heavens!
What a joke, when does an upstanding person like me need to have ideas about others? Normally it’s others who have ideas about me, alright?
“Back on topic, you need to be careful in the Central State Trials.” Meng Qingwu had already heard rumours of the Central State tower before, so she knew just how important the Central State Trials were for people, “Because of you, the Chu, Luo, and Ye Family juniors have lost the chance to participate, so they will definitely hold a grudge against you for this. Other than the top six for the Central State Great Games, the Central State Four Young Masters will be participating as well. Although the Yun Family is supporting you, with just the power of the Purple Lightning Young Master, you cannot stop the others.”
Of the Four Young Masters, the Purple Lightning Young Master was ranked fourth.
When Yun Yao broke through to the 4th Awakened Soul Layer and after she obtained the Soul Contracting Thunder Spirit Bead, her strength was about the same as Ye Tianlang’s. She was even not that far from Luo Xianglong, but that was just compared to those two.
It would be hopeless for her to compete with Chu Xinghe. The strength of the head of the Four Young Masters was greater than the sum of the other three’s.
The Heavenly Sword Young Master, the Dragon Tiger Young Master, and the Heavenly Wolf Young Master, if these three Illustrious Soul experts attacked Chu Tian at the same time, could he even finish the trial?
Meng Qingwu continued to remind, “You can’t look down on the Central State Four Great Families. These families have existed in Central State City for two-three hundred years now. Even if they are afraid of the Divine Wind Marquis and don’t dare to move against you, that does not mean that they will not try to assassinate you.”
“Assassinate? If they had the skills, I would have already lost my head and there would be no need to wait until now!” Chu Tian smiled and said, “Relax, a small family in a small city in a small country, what can they do? They are just showing off their power over their limited domain!”
Meng Qingwu then said, “Other than that, while I was still in South Sky City, I received some news. The Central State Four Great Families have already tried to secretly decipher our technology.”
Chu Tian was a little surprised, but did not really care.
This was hard to avoid!
Every time a new talisman or pill appeared on the market, it would draw the attention of the large families. If these items had a high turnover rate, then they would invest a lot into trying to decipher the production method.
The prospects of the source energy lights and source energy cooking were great, it was impossible for the large families to not be jealous. No matter how meticulous Meng Qingwu was, it was impossible for them to not obtain a source energy light. Once they obtained the light, then if they could pass through the source energy array printed, they could reverse the design of the array.
If the source energy design was found out.
Then the source energy lamp technology would be exposed!
It was the same idea with the source energy cooking pots.
This was one of the current era’s most common competitive strategy. There were no such things as patents in the current era and even the country itself silently agreed to this kind of method. Everyone depended on their own strength, so while inventing was strength, it was also strength to decipher a design. Whoever could come up with the invention, they had the right to produce it.
Although it was difficult to reverse an array design, the complexity of a level one source energy was limited. The large families had several hundred scholars gathered just for deciphering these kinds of technology. They could send the source energy array to the Imperial City and find a specialized master or use money to hire the great scholars to decipher it.
Once the technology was deciphered, Miracle Commerce’s production forces would not have any advantages. These large families had strong productive forces and could reach the market ten times faster than Miracle Commerce. Miracle Commerce’s technology would become someone else’s cash tree then!
Chu Tian gave a relaxed smile, “There’s no need to worry. Even though my source energy array is a level one array, those idiots can give up on understanding it within three-five years. Even if they can understand one part, what they make will be defective. If they cannot guarantee the item’s stability, it cannot compete with Miracle Commerce’s goods at all. Acting like this will just harm them, so we’ll just let them develop their items. After they make some products, we will let them eat the dirt behind our asses!”
With Chu Tian saying this
Meng Qingwu felt much assured.
Meng Qingwu had the Heavenly Book Source Spirit’s intelligence boosting powers and still had only understood a part of the design. Although she did not understand the array itself, after all, Southern Cloud Commerce had been a talisman producing family, so isn’t this killing the pig, but not getting to eat pig meat?
Regardless of Chu Tian’s source energy array’s style or shape, it was far ahead of the current era’s technology and was ahead of it by several years. To completely decipher this level one array was something impossible for a small country like the Southern Cloud Country. Even those gigantic countries would find this to be a challenge.
As for being able to decipher a part, perhaps they would be able to make an electric lamp or a source energy pot, but it would be inferior in terms of stability, sensitivity and safety. It would not be able to compare with Miracle Commerce and would only serve as a low grade product.
Let them try to decipher it!
This thing was just basic level technology anyway.
Chu Tian did not care about it from the beginning.
What Chu Tian cared most right now was increasing his strength, and Central State Tower would be a chance to do so. Moreover, in Central State Tower, there was a legendary ten thousand year old lost problem that made him very interested.
………..
After several days.
It was time for the Central State Trials!
The Central State Towers was the event that Central State City cared the most about.
This was an opportunity that came once every five years. Sometimes there were people that pulled out ancient weapons or treasures. There were even times that people had pulled out inherited cultivation techniques or countless rare pills. There were even times where sacred level pill materials were pulled out. How could the large families not be anxious over this?
“The forbidden area is opening!”
“We ask the trial participants to enter now!”
This was a powerful shout.

Central State City’s Great General Xiong Wuji led his troops to completely surround the ruins.
The Four Great Families came with magnificent honour guards, slowly walking into Central State’s forbidden ruins. The mighty beast carriages they drove exuded a majestic and powerful aura.
Central State Tower!
The base that Central State City was built around!
It was because there was this trial tower that there was a bustling Central State City!
The Central State Tower was not like the Ten Thousand Corpses Ancient Tomb, it did not have a restriction on one’s cultivation base. As long as one was below thirty years old, they would be able to enter the trial.
So, having a higher cultivation base would give one an advantage. With Chu Xinghe’s overwhelming strength, this was an advantage never seen in the Central State Trial before. So, this battle was destined to be a very intense fight.
The Central State Tower was thirty meters tall, standing above the ancient city ruins. It was snow white just like white jade, shrouded in a layer of dim glory. An ancient and mysterious aura was exuded by it. Even after corroding for over ten thousand years, it was still looked new, with not a single thing wrong with it.
It seemed like even the strongest power in the world could not do a thing to it.
On the first day Chu Tian came to the city, he felt as if the main city was covered in a special ancient aura.
The source seemed to be this.
The Four Great Families surrounded the Central State Tower, waiting for the trial to begin.
Chu Shanhe, Ye Wudao, and Luo Liancheng, each one of them had a sinister look on their faces because these past few days had not been good for them.
The three families had sent a group of assassins to kill Chu Tian, but the result was that every single one sent did not come back alive!
That old man named Yun could not keep protecting them!
When the three great families noticed a silent black figure behind Chu Tian, they finally realized that it was Chen Bingyu!
It was that woman!
They could guess that it was that woman who took care of all the assassins that they sent.
Chen Bingyu had always been indifferent as ice, so why did she insist on protecting Chu Tian like this?!
God dammit!
With this woman by Chu Tian’s side, it was impossible for them to assassinate him. It would be the same even if the three family head personally made a move. It could be accomplished only if they contacted the ancestors who had closed up or were out wandering, but was that easily accomplished?
Their eyes were filled with hate.
They were like arrows piercing into Chu Tian.
Yun Tianhe had a heavy heart as he said to Chu Tian in a low voice, “You cannot die in the trials, so if you are caught by them, just take yourself out. Otherwise, you will be humiliated by them.”
Meng Qingwu was also here. When she heard what Yun Tianhe said, her heart filled with worry.
Although a person could not die in the trial, they could still be heavily injured and crippled. Chu Tian participating in this trial was very dangerous.
Chu Tian had a relaxed look on his face as if he was ignoring everything. Seeing the Ye Wudao father and son combo, he even intentionally went forward to give them a warm greeting, “Yo, isn’t it the stray dog young master! Last time I accidentally chopped off your arm and I feel very guilty about it, but I never would have thought that you would heal so quickly. I really feel much better now! But I must advise you, you shouldn’t act so mischievously in the future or else you’ll lose more than just two arms.”
Stray dog young master?!
Everyone looked over with a strange gaze!
Ye Tianlang’s fair face turned completely red.
That bitter experience he had in South Sky City was the nightmare that would stick with him for a lifetime!
Ye Wudao’s face turned sinister. If it weren’t for Yun Tianhe and Chen Bingyu being here, he would have slapped this wild brat to death already!
“How long can you act this proudly?” Ye Tianlang revealed an ugly expression, “As long as you enter the trial, I will make you beg for death!”
Chu Tian trembled and with very fake acting, he revealed a frightened expression. “The stray dog young master is angry, I’m so scared!”
Luo Xianglong gave a snort.
Although he did not have a good relationship with Ye Tianlang, he at least shared a title with him. If Chu Tian disregarded the Four Young Master like this, could he accept it?
Chu Xinghe meditated with his eyes close, not making a sound.
Chu Tian also stopped because the trial was more important.
The little fox poked out its head from his clothes, “Zhi, zhi!”
Chu Tian patted its head, “What’s wrong? You want to take a look too? But you are a living creature, can you even go into the trial tower?”
The little fox stretched out its claws and signaled that it was ok.
“Alright then!” Chu Tian rolled his eyes, “Don’t implicate me and get me kicked out!”
It’s fine!
You can be assured!
The little fox confidently returned into his clothes.
The earth suddenly trembled and the sky quickly darkened. A piece of the sun seemed like it had been blocked by something and it was slowly becoming bigger.
Eclipse!
The Central State Tower opening caused an eclipse?
A thunderbolt fell, landing on the Central State Tower, and a surge of energy entered the tower.
A large amount of runes appeared in the air, and the tightly shut jade door suddenly slowly vanished. A white light bloomed from the pathway that appeared in front of everyone.
An ancient and mysterious aura spilled out.
It made people feel that as long as they entered this pathway, they would enter into a different world, a completely different world!
“Let the participants enter the tower!”
Chu Xinghe, Luo Xianglong, Ye Tianlang, and Yun Yao, the Four Young Masters stood in front.
Chu Tian, Nangong Yung, Feng Caidie, Yun Xiao, Lin Mu, and Fang Han, the six of them followed closely behind. The little fox was hiding in Chu Tian’s clothes and it released an ash gray energy that slowly covered it as it went into the pathway with Chu Tian.
The trial had now officially begun!
