The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 255 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (3)

Hundreds of cultivators were now gathering around Ji Yuan and Cai Bisheng now. It was because this was a duel between two great saints and many of the cultivators were interested to know their disparity with a great saint.

A fight between two great saints was an epic fight that was not to be missed!

As a matter of fact, many of the cultivators were now grinning and were even purposely inciting for the fight to happen.

"Fight!"

"Fight! Fight!"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Cai Bisheng was a little startled because he had not expected that this poor looking cultivator to be also a great saint.

In fact he was silently questioning. "Is he really a peaked great saint? He doesn't even look like a great saint at all. This must be a bluff for sure…"

He rolled his eyes as he clutched his divine sword tightly before he concluded silently. "This has to be a bluff. He is too poor looking and I doubt that he even has a divine sword at all. He must have forced these maidens to lie for him. Hmph! Very sure, I shall know if he is for real…"

Ling Feiyue was playing with her fingernails as she casually said to Ji Yuan. "I told you to get better clothing. No one ever believes that you are a great saint."

Ji Yuan replied with a small frown. "What the heck does appearance have to do with a cultivator's cultivation level?"

Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi chuckled almost immediately, "Everything."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

"If we're not beautiful and did not groom ourselves, will you still like us?" Ling Feiyue giggled with a playful wink at him.

Ji Yuan responded with a righteous defiance, "I didn't like you because of your looks."

Xiang Li responded curiously. "Big Brother, really?"

Ji Yuan: …

"I didn't expect that you didn't trust me as well. You're the last person that should have doubted me." Ji Yuan frowned.

Xiang Li returned a pitiful look. "I always trust Big Brother…"

Ji Yuan said with utmost solemnness to her, "You can't judge a person by their appearances. This is too superficial."

Xiang Li sniffed. "I'm so wrong. Please forgive me, Big Brother…"

Ji Yuan grinned. "Alright then. You're forgiven."

Xiang Li immediately clapped her hands as she laughed. "Thank you Big Brother!"

Cai Bisheng knew that the stake was high and that everyone was looking to see how he was going to perform.

However he knew that he may have an advantage here as long as his opponent was not a power cultivator.

So he lit a smile. "I am not unlike someone here who dare not declare his name and cultivation realm aloud. Do you dare to accept a challenge from me?"

Ji Yuan looked at the celestial sword that was in Cai Bisheng's hand and saw that he was indeed a great saint and was an initial great saint. For his age, this was already quite impressive. No doubt he was here to show off his achievements and there would be countless number of maidens that would fall in love with his charms.

Unfortunately, he had met Ji Yuan today and Ji Yuan was not only known as the most beautiful bearded cultivator for nothing. Even without his beard, his roguish good looks could turn many maidens into deep flusters.

Ji Yuan was actually two notches more handsome than Cai Bisheng.

However most of the beautiful maidens in the crowd only had eyes on Cai Bisheng and that was because he had a celestial sword.

After all, there was no doubt that Cai Bisheng was the more worthy golden celestial and in the Celestial Realm, a cultivator's resources are often valued more highly than any good looks because it is the more practical of the two.

Ji Yuan replied. "I am Ji Yuan and I'm sure that you've already known by now. As for my cultivation realm level…"

All of a sudden all the cultivators were now gasping with shock as Ji Yuan had suddenly brandished his saintly divine sword and his profound animus was now pronounced; his cultivation realm level was indeed a peaked great saint!

Ji Yuan grinned as he waved his saintly divine sword like a shield. "Heh! Do I now have to pronounce my cultivation realm to you?"

The maidens in Ji Yuan's party were all giggling now. Somehow they had all expected Ji Yuan to show off his saintly divine sword and they were not as startled as the other cultivators.

All three hundred cultivators in the vicinity were all stunned when they saw the saintly divine sword in Ji Yuan's hands.

"This is…really a saint sword?"

"There is no doubt about it…this is really the profound animus of a saint sword…"

"This Ji Yuan is really a peaked great saint?!"

"A divine sword can magnify a cultivator's cultivation realm to make it pronounced to everyone. Drawing out a powerful divine sword such as a saint-step divine sword will demand all the profound strength of a cultivator and hence, there's no hiding a cultivator's exact cultivation realm…"

The maidens among the onlookers were now abandoning their looks of idolatry from Cai Bisheng to Ji Yuan now…

Ji Yuan laughed as he was aware that there were many maidens that were looking in his way now. "Great Hero Ji Yuan is just my part-time job. I am more commonly known as the Romantic Cultivator Ji Yuan."

Xiang Li: ???

Big Brother is a romantic cultivator?!

All seven maidens in Ji Yuan's party were now rolling their eyes and they had a look of disgust when they heard Ji Yuan addressing himself as a Romantic Cultivator for the very first time.

Ling Feiyue muttered almost incoherently. "I don't think he has yet passed Jiajia's definition of a romantic cultivator yet…"

Chen Hanhan actually did not know very much about Ji Yuan and she was full of worship for Ji Yuan as she muttered. "My lord is also a romantic cultivator…"

Cai Bisheng was staring blankly at Ji Yuan; it was because he had suddenly realized their disparity was actually very great. Even if Ji Yuan was not a power cultivator but in terms of pure profound strength, Ji Yuan may have already outclassed him and he did not want to wait until he had found out about Ji Yuan's exact profound power.

If he waited to find out then he would already be a dead cultivator!

And he did not want to die for no apparent reason at all…

Cai Bisheng suddenly realized that he had less than 50% chance.

To be precise, he had maybe only 25% and even if he had the superior celestial skills, his odds would only be 50%!

So he said solemnly as he pointed at the black stele that was nearby. "Do you know why we are all here outside the trial entrance instead of inside the trial entrance?"

Ji Yuan was startled as he did not expect such an answer. "Yea? Why?"

Now that Cai Bisheng had mentioned it, indeed he did not see anyone going in and out of the trial entrance.

As a matter of fact, the entrance of the trial entrance looked a little crowded than usual.

Although it was expected as they went further up the level, there would be more and more cultivators as the number of worlds inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth would get lesser and lesser but there were a little too many of the cultivators that were around.

Cai Bisheng smirked coldly. "Then why don't you touch the black stele to have a little look?"

Ji Yuan frowned slowly as he walked to the black stele and he was immediately followed by his party of maidens.

Together, they touched the black stele at almost the same time.

The details of the trial immediately translated from the black stele to their divine sense.

Ji Yuan frowned immediately as he looked up at the cliff above him, followed by the seven maidens.

There was not a trial entrance because that was totally unnecessary.

That was because this trial required all the cultivators below the cliff to wait for a tree below to reach to the top of the cliff. It would be a process that would take years!

However this tree was special and was called the Spirit Life Tree and it would feed upon the spiritual force of the vicinity to grow.

The fastest way to grow this tree was to imbue a cultivator's spiritual force and profound pills. 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

When Ji Yuan had arrived here, the hundreds of cultivators were all trying to grow the Spirit Life Tree. If the Spirit Life Tree was able to reach to the top of the cliff then everyone would be able to clear the trial together.

It was both a near impossible task and also a risk free task at the same time that could get everyone to clear the trial.

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "We don't have months to waste our time on this trial. I'm leaving now…"

Cai Bisheng laughed. "So you want to leave now? Are you a coward?"

Ji Yuan replied. "You want to fight with me?"

Cai Bisheng smiled coldly, "We are all cultured cultivators. Do we need to resort to a fight? Why don't we have a wager?"

Ji Yuan laughed. "I am not falling for your trick. So, good bye!"

"Or are you a chicken?" Cai Bisheng suggested with a wry smile.

Ji Yuan raised his head to stare at Cai Bisheng. "I would be a chicken? You must be kidding me!"

Cai Bisheng smiled, "Then why don't we have a little contest?"

"What contest?" Ji Yuan asked. "You mean to grow this tree?"

? Cai Bisheng chuckled. "Naturally it is the case. Are you on?"

Ji Yuan laughed. "This is a near impossible thing. What if we both can't grow this tree? Are we even?"

Cai Bisheng laughed at the same time, "I didn't say anything about growing this gigantic tree."

Ji Yuan: ???

"I'm betting that you can't grow this gigantic tree." Cai Bisheng smiled.

Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Do you think that I am stupid? Why don't you grow this tree yourself? I can't grow this tree to reach to the very top."

"You don't have to." Cai Bisheng smiled. "As long as you can grow this gigantic tree by a little then you are the winner of our challenge. I'm betting that you don't have the spiritual strength to do so."

Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "You're belittling me too much. My spiritual level is actually stronger than most cultivators. Haha. In that case, I shall accept your challenge."

Cai Bisheng smiled. "In that case, I shall accept your challenge as well. If I win this challenge then you have to leave alone and leave these maidens behind. If I lose, I shall give you my celestial-step divine sword."

Ji Yuan was startled. "You're giving me your celestial-step divine sword just like this?"

He isn't joking, right?

How hard it is to grow the gigantic tree?

Shui Xisi and Little Princess were both humming coldly. "Take the challenge and show him what you are really made of."

Feng Minyue quickly warned Ji Yuan, "Don't accept the challenge. This may be a ruse…"

When Ji Yuan saw that Feng Minyue was trying to dissuade him, he did not want to lose any face so he laughed. "I'll take the challenge then."

All of a sudden Cai Bisheng had displayed a backward swung with his celestial-step divine sword as he generated a powerful profound wave of energy that was directed at the gigantic tree that was behind them.

There was a thunderous impact that went 'BOOMMMM' as the gigantic tree was felled by Cai Bisheng.

Ji Yuan's jaws immediately dropped to the ground; this was too sneaky…

Cai Bisheng laughed. "You have lost."

Not only was Ji Yuan stunned, everyone else was also stunned.

The challenge had ended as soon as it had begun!

Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes nonstop and he was quite speechless…

Even Xiang Li was dumbfounded as she screamed angrily. "Big Brother, he cheated…son of a bastard…"
