I Might Be A Fake Cultivator
chapter-201

“An Lin, Liu Qianhuan, and Arthur have all been eliminated. Score, three points!”

Vanessa’s voice announced. Poor Arthur did manage to make a pill for himself, but it didn’t work, so he too was eliminated alongside An Lin and Liu Qianhuan.

The students on the plaza were all in anguish at the twin elimination of the Heavenly Court representatives.

The teacher responsible for teaching students about pills and elixirs covered his face in shame.

All negative conditions were immediately alleviated once An Lin and Liu Qianhuan were teleported back to the stage.

“Phew, that was close, I felt like I really was going to die from the poison,” An Lin said with an expression of lingering fear.

“Yeah, being poisoned truly is not a good feeling. The feebleness and desperation made me fall into complete despair. I’m going to study about pills and elixirs diligently from now on.” Liu Qianhuan clenched her fists with determination.

The two of them had been eliminated, but all was not yet lost as they still had Senior Wang to carry them.

An Lin cast his gaze onto the crystalline screen to find that the remaining contestants had already entered the fifth perilous realm.

The fifth perilous realm was the ruins of an Immortal, within which ferocious beasts aplenty and countless booby traps laid around.

Wang Xuanzhan’s powerful combat strength combined with his quick-witted reactions allowed him to progress with no real trouble.

However, Shirley, Qing Xin, and Qing Zhi were all eliminated in this round.

Huang Shan and Dong Yan performed exceptionally well as they were naturally sensitive to hazards, so they were able to detect dangers before they struck.

Progressing on to the sixth perilous realm, there were only four representatives left: Huang Shan, Dong Yan, Wang Xuanzhan, and Augus.

On a vast yet barren patch of land, all sorts of demonic fiends roamed and gathered.

Suddenly, four outsiders descended there.

The demonic beasts turned around instantly to stare at the four living beings who were emitting strong auras, and drool began to drip down uncontrollably from their sharp fangs.

Almost instantly, the army of demonic beasts began to charge toward them.

Huang Shan, Dong Yan, Wang Xuanzhan, and Augus could only run away with all their might.

This was a straightforward test of survival.

There were demonic beasts everywhere in this realm, and some of them were just as strong, if not even more powerful, than the representatives they were hunting. All of them had the same goal and that was to devour the four outsiders!

All the remaining representatives felt like it was basically them against the whole world…

…

Dong Yan was swallowed whole by a demonic dragon, Augus was crushed under a stampede of thousands of Dark Demons, and Wang Xuanzhan was blasted to death by the collective lightning strikes cast by a huge pack of Demonic Lightning Falcons in the air.

In the end, only Huang Shan, who moved like lightning was able to last the duration of ten minutes and progress through this perilous realm.

Liu Qianhuan and An Lin both breathed a collective sigh of disappointment at the sight of Wang Xuanzhan’s demise. They only received a total of eleven points in this segment.

Huang Shan progressed to the seventh perilous realm, where there was a huge hole in the sky. Before he even had a chance to react, his body was ripped to shreds by the spatial turbulence…

The freakishly difficult trial of perilous realms finally came to a conclusion.

In the segment of life, the Buddhist Kingdom received ten points, the Garden of Eden received twelve points, the Hall of Creation also received twelve points, and the Heavenly Court received eleven points.

Before the last segment, Seize, commenced, An Lin calculated the total scores for each of the four powers.

The Buddhist Kingdom was at 70.1 points, the Garden of Eden was at 73.2 points, the Hall of Creation was at 70.2 points and the Heavenly Court was at 72.7 points.

The gap between the four powers was not very large, and An Lin was very surprised to find that the Hall of Creation was not ranked last.

The final round would decide which of the four powers would come out on top.

Vice-Principal Yu Hua stepped onto the stage and announced the rules for the Seize segment.

“The final segment is known as the battle for the holy grails. There are nine holy grails scattered throughout a place called the Zhong Long mountain ranges, among which five of them are iron, three of them are silver, and one of them is gold.

“The representatives must enter the Zhong Long mountain ranges to fight for the holy grails.

“An iron holy grail equates to one point, a silver holy grail equates to two points, and the gold holy grail equates to five points. During the course of the trial, combat between the representatives is permitted, but contestants will be eliminated as soon as their Defeat Judgement Seal is triggered.”

Vice-Principal Yu Hua waved his hand as he spoke, and a Defeat Judgement Seal appeared on everyone’s bodies.

An Lin sighed lightly at the sight of the familiar Defeat Judgement Seal.

It appeared that this trial was going to be quite a brutal one where combat was inevitable.

A white teleportation spell formation appeared on the stage and all the representatives stepped on it.

On the plaza, regardless of whether it was the tens-of-thousands of students or the entourage from the other powers, all of them were cheering their team on with all their might.

This was the final trial and also the one that would decide which team would emerge as the victor. Everyone became extremely animated, and the sound of uninhibited cheers rose all the way up into the heavens.

A white light flashed, and all twelve representatives were teleported to the Zhong Long mountain ranges. At the same time, a huge screen displaying the images of all twelve contestants began to materialize on the Blue Sky Plaza.

An Lin opened his eyes after recovering from a burst of dizziness and was greeted by the sight of a vast expanse of hilly terrain. He immediately looked around him to find that Liu Qianhuan and Wang Xuanzhan were still there beside him, but the representatives from the other three powers were not nearby.

He breathed a sigh of relief. At least they didn’t have to engage in battle anytime soon.

“In order to defend against the other teams, I think we should stay together.” Wang Xuanzhan proposed.

An Lin nodded in response. Combat was permitted, so that meant they could eliminate all their opponents first before they went searching for the holy grails. To split up now would just be asking for trouble.

“Guys, look! There’s a white pagoda there! Could there be holy grails there?” Liu Qianhuan pointed to a hill in the East as she spoke.

An Lin and Wang Xuanzhan looked toward the direction in which Liu Qianhuan was pointing and saw that about two to three kilometers away, there was indeed a white pagoda that was reflecting a pale white light under the sun.

“To place a pagoda in such an obvious location, I feel like it might be a trap.” Wang Xuanzhan stared at the pagoda with furrowed brows.

“Well, it’s always better to have a target rather than just wander about aimlessly. Let’s go have a look there anyway!” An Lin said. Even if there was a trap, they should be able to escape with their strength anyway.

Liu Qianhuan raised both hands high up in the air. “I agree!”

Thus, with a two to one vote, the three of them began to make their way toward the white pagoda.

On the way there, the ground suddenly began to tremor violently.

“Be careful!” Wang Xuanzhan drew his long spear as he surveyed their surrounding cautiously.

An Lin had also detected a suffocating presence in front of them, and his whole body tensed with anticipation.

“Roar!”

A huge golden tiger covered in sharp spikes hurtled out of the forest toward Wang Xuanzhan like a sharp sword as it moved with lightning speed.

Everyone was extremely shocked at the sight of the huge tiger.

Not in response to how ferocious it was, but instead because they saw a crown on the huge tiger’s head. The crown was crafted to resemble an iron holy grail…

The huge golden tiger was here to deliver the holy grail to them!
