BXBX NOVEL Chapter 93: Trial (2)
Firstly, my name is Su Linhua, and the person next to me is Long Wei."
"Hey, don\'t call me that," Long Wei replied.
Su Linhua simply rolled her eyes at him and chose not to respond.
Everyone was extremely curious about the appearance of these two mysterious figures.
"Allow me to continue. We are the trial masters of the Trial of Fire and Ice. I believe most of you are already aware of this trial, as none of you appeared surprised.
However, for those who may not be familiar, I\'ll provide a brief explanation." She directed her gaze specifically towards Chen Tian and Su Bingxin.
She could tell that Chen Tian and Su Bingxin were not part of this group of people.
She noticed that both Chen Tian were battling the disciplinary members of the immortal sect, and neither He nor Su Bingxin were dressed in the same outfit as the others.
"This place is known as the Trial of Fire and Ice, one of the ancient trials dating back to the era of chaos.
This person and I will be evaluating everyone here," she said confidently, her voice brimming with power.
"The Trial of Fire and Ice is a tough challenge that pushes people to their limits, both in body and mind. It\'s a test of endurance and strength."
She stopped for a moment, looking at the faces of the people gathered. Some of them seemed excited and ready to prove themselves, while others looked worried but determined.
The trial has two main parts: the Fire Trial and the Ice Trial. In the Fire Trial, you\'ll encounter really hot conditions, blazing fires, and tricky obstacles meant to test how strong you are.
Then comes the Ice Trial. In this part, you\'ll face freezing cold temperatures, icy ground, and challenges that check how well you can adjust and come up with solutions. Being able to handle the cold and think quickly will be important to overcome the obstacles.
"The purpose of this trial is to find people who are deserving of our inheritance. Those who successfully pass this trial will be the ones who receive the reward.
I will be the person who tests the participants in the Ice Trial."
She then glanced at Long Wei with a nod of mutual understanding.
"The decision will be up to all of you here. If you want to take part in the Fire Trial, raise your hands. If you prefer the Ice Trial, keep your hands down. I will be the one to administer the test.
Nobody here has to worry about their safety, but I will still remind you all that while your safety is assured, your will may be pushed to its limits.
The Fire and Ice Trial is an intense and challenging test that requires immense mental and physical strength. The pain you will experience during the trial is unlike anything you have ever felt before, and it is important to understand the risks involved before making your decision.
Entering the Trial is your personal choice, and I cannot make that decision for you. However, I encourage you to carefully consider the consequences and prepare yourself mentally and physically if you choose to participate.
It is crucial to understand that the trial will push your mind to its limits, potentially causing extreme discomfort and anguish.
So I will be giving time for all of you to consider your choice and ask any question you didn\'t understand." Long Wei explained giving the time for everyone in the room to considered there choice.
There were 300 people from the Immortal Sword Sect present, not including Chen Tian and Su Bingxin.
Long Wei and Su Linhua were still hovering in the sky, patiently awaiting the participants\' decisions.
Upon realizing that the two figures were the masters overseeing the trial and not some unfamiliar enemy trying to cause harm, Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
But he still had something on his mind.
\'Firstly, there was a dragon, and then there was that woman.\' He looked in the woman\'s direction, and as their eyes met, both his and Su Linhia\'s gaze locked.
Su Linhua was also staring in that direction, specifically at Su Bingxin.
\'I had a feeling that something wasn\'t right; this woman had the same last name, Su, as Su Bingxin,\' Chen Tian thought to himself.
He wanted to use Chaos Insight to uncover the secrets about both Su Linhua and Long Wei, but he was aware that his level of cultivation wasn\'t strong enough. He feared that if he attempted anything, he would be discovered, so he didn\'t dare to try at the moment.
"Are you going to join in, Tian?" Su Bingxin asked while nestled in Chen Tian\'s embrace.
"Yep," Chen Tian nodded.
His hand rested gently on her cheek, caressing the soft skin beneath his fingertips. Chen Tian couldn\'t help but feel a surge of affection for Su Bingxin.
"Will you be participating in this trial too, Bingxin?" Chen Tian asked.
Su Bingxin hesitated for a moment before responding, her voice shaking. "I... I\'m not sure."
She didn\'t seem eager to join the trial and appeared uncertain about it.
It was obvious that she had doubts or worries about whatever they were suggesting. Maybe she was scared of what might occur there.
"Sigh"
With an air of tenderness and loving affection, Chen Tian gently caressed Su Bingxin\'s soft, white hair.
His touch was gentle, as if he were handling a delicate treasure that meant the world to him.
Her hair, once vibrant and full of life, had now turned a pure shade of white, showing the passage of time and the challenges they had faced together.
Su Bingxin\'s heart began to melt as she felt the warmth and kindness in Chen Tian\'s touch.
"Bingxin, I know we haven\'t known each other for long, but I can already tell that you\'re a strong woman. Didn\'t you want to achieve Immortality?"
"Ho-How?!" Chen Tian\'s question caught Su Bingxin off guard.
"From the moment our eyes met, I could sense something special about you. There was a spark in your eyes, a passion that outshone everyone else\'s.
...And those eyes of yours reminded me of someone who once shared the same desire for strength."
\'You had the same kind of eyes as me when I wanted to become stronger.\' Chen Tian thought in his heart.
"Really?"
"Yes"
"Try the Ice trial, Su Bingxin. Don\'t worry, our safety is guaranteed, just like that senior said. I believe in you and know you can do it," Chen Tian reassured.
"His right," Suddenly Su Linhua\'s voice echoed in both of their minds while Chen Tian spoke.
Su Bingxin and Chen Tian turned their gaze toward Su Linhua.
"Little girl, I sensed something familiar about you, but I couldn\'t quite figure out what it was. I suggest you give this Trial a shot and see if luck is on your side. If you\'re destined for it, you might gain some amazing powers.
Don\'t let fear stop you; believe in yourself and what you can do. And remember, even if things don\'t work out, it\'s not the end. Every setback is a chance to learn and grow.
So go ahead, take the Ice trial and see where it takes you. Good luck!"
Then Su Linhua\'s voice faded away.
Su Bingxin closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened them again, a determined look shone in her eyes.
"Tian, I think I\'m going to give it a try."
Chen Tian smiled and nodded, saying, "Sure, go ahead."
