Chapter 94 A Demon

Time passed quickly.

Two days had passed in the blink of an eye.

In the two days, in addition to attending classes to learn various kinds of knowledge such as Spiritual Herbs, elixirs, inscriptions, Ding Hao spent most of his time on the cultivation of the three secret books.

The cultivation of Ice and Fire Nine Turns Golden Body Method had gradually reached the Fulfilment Realm of the first turn. His body had become Skin Golden Body.

Besides, the cultivation of Yan Tao Mi Li Technique had reached the basic realm. This method had four skills of “Yan (Smoke)”, “Tao (Wave)”, “Mi (Unpredictable)”, “Li (Blurry)”. Ding Hao had mastered the footwork of “Smoke”, which meant that he finally had his own movement technique. He would no longer have to rely on his physical strength to jump around like a big kangaroo that every time he jumped, he would leave a big pit on the ground.

The Water Sword Skills from the Dragon King had nine movements and thirty-six strokes. Ding Hao had mastered the four strokes of the first movement, Dragon King Emerges. But he was still practicing the four strokes because he wanted to understand the deeper rhyme and meaning of this movement. He was not in a hurry to practice the next movements. He wanted to stand firmly and fight steadily.

In addition, after completing the refining of the second aperture, Tan Zhong, of Ren Meridian in the six extra-channels, Ding Hao could finally start refining the third aperture, Ling Dao, of Shaoyin First Channel of Hand in the twelve standard meridians. At last, when he had refined, he was at the three-apertured Martial Disciple Realm.

Ding Hao’s strength was rising rapidly.

...

When the sun rose on the third day, the first trial test expected by countless nominal disciples finally began.

This trial test was obviously a test for the next competition of the first man in the five academies. If those who had won in the five academies competition could pass this trial and win the support of other disciples, he would become the first man of the five academies.

Every ambitious teenager had a high-spirited attitude.

Under the arrangement of Wang Juefeng, the cynical teacher-in-charge, 400 disciples of the Eastern Academy of green shirts were divided into 20 groups. Each group elected its own captain and got a map. They set out at dawn and entered the marked test area.

The adventure activities, in the fear and excitement of the freshmen, finally began.

...

The Land of Infinity was full of hundreds of ethnic groups, but it was the human race and demons that occupied the absolute advantage.

This was a world dominated by humans and demons.

There are many kinds of demons. Except for human beings, all creatures of the earth in the Encyclopedia of Beasts were classified as demons.

Demons had a rapid reproduction that surpassed that of human beings. Although not all of them were of good qualities, they were far more numerous than human beings. Besides, they were born with natural magical powers. They had obvious advantages and the upper hand in the whole continent.

For tens of thousands of years, countless holy wars had broken out between the Human tribe and Demon Tribe, causing heavy casualties on both sides.

The latest holy war occurred more than ten thousand years ago.

The Human Tribe were defeated in this holy war and their strength was greatly weakened. Therefore, they were at an absolute disadvantage in the battles over the past ten thousand years. Most could only live in settlements and huge cities, and the wilderness was occupied by demons.

If it weren’t for the supreme beings of Martial Arts who frightened the demons, maybe Human Tribe would have been killed by demon tribe to the extermination of an entire family.

Demons did not have meridians in their bodies and could not cultivate like human beings, but they were born with Demonic Qi, so they mainly cultivated demon power.

According to the strength of demon power, demons were divided into 12 cultivation realms, namely Ominous Beast, Demonic Beast, Demon Soldier, Demon General, Demon Commander, Demon Prince, Demon King, Demon Royal, Demon Emperor, Demon Saint, Demon God and Demon Fairy, which basically correspond to the levels of human strength.

Among them, if one demon were above the realm of Demon Commander, he would be as smart as an adult.

If he was above the realm of Demon King, he would have a human-like appearance.

As for the demon gods and demon fairies, they were all supreme beings who could not be seen under normal conditions. They were all Hierarchal Masters. With one finger, they could wipe out a sect like Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

There were many demons, just like countless sand on the beach. They scattered in the wilds of hundreds of states in five regions of Land of Infinity.

Human sects divided some areas those low-grade demons lived into different grades according to the degree of danger. From time to time, they sent disciples out to kill demons. Those were trial tests to increase their disciples’ actual combat experience.

Of course, some demon sects and demon powers would do the same thing, sending their young demons out to have trial tests during the human areas and hunt down human martial artists.

Those tests that they hunted each other were allowed by the top leaders of the two tribes. However, large-scale wars were not allowed.

Ding Hao and other disciples would be tested at a ninth area near Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

This trial area was a huge mountainous and hilly area. It was only several kilometers away from Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Besides, the strong demons had been killed by the masters from Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, only some low-grade Ominous Beasts were left. The nominal disciples were strong enough to battle with the demons, and they would not be hurt as long as they worked together.

Of course, there were always exceptions.

The so-called trials were necessarily dangerous. For the first trials of nominal disciples in the past, some of them would always be killed. The nominal disciples’ mortality rate was 4/1000 to make sure the freshmen could adapt to this dangerous world.

The difficulty levels of the following trial tests would be higher and higher, and the freshmen would be trained in more dangerous areas.

Only the truly strong men could survive.

The weak would be cruelly eliminated.

After the blood tests and the choices between life and death, the elites would become the true disciples of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and obtained more support and training from the sect.

Any race that lived in this cruel world had to try their best. The weak was not qualified to survive.

...

There was no doubt that Ding Hao was elected the captain of his team.

Zhang Fan, Wang Xiaoqi, and Fang Tianyi were lucky to be in the same group with Ding Hao, and the other disciples who could follow Ding Hao felt extremely excited. They thought they had to be safer to work with the first man in the five academies competition.

After riding for half a day in a row, the 20 people arrived at the trial area.

The requirements for this trial were very simple. They did not have to kill demons. Their mission would be completed if they could live in this wilderness area for three days. After completing the task, they could return and obtain three contribution points.

“Here we are! Our area is the place within a radius of 50 kilometers.”

Ding Hao, wearing pale blue light armor, stopped his horse, and carefully compared the map. Then, he looked around.

The surrounding terrain fluctuated, but it was not steep.

Many 100-meter-high mountains spread all over. They were like pillars supporting the sky.

As it was late autumn, most of the plants had withered and their leaves were yellow. The grass was waist high. When the wind blew, it moved like yellow waves. In the distance, there was a big river rushing west.

Some common but absolutely ferocious beasts loomed in the distance, and faint sounds of animal roar came over.
