1128 Encountering Some Enemies
An hour later, Alice was done with her cultivation, her aura had spiked to the Peak of the Sage Plane. She was close to the Ninth stage during the last trial, and taking this fruit made her breakthrough with ease.
“Congratulations, you’re getting closer to the Elemental Venerable Plane.” Grey smiled as he looked at her.
He felt excited for his friends, they were all advancing faster than most people. Given where they came from, it showed that the reason for their low elemental grade was the Azure Continent. The quality of elemental grades has a lot to do with the environment, the quality of the essence, and the parents as well.
Some parents take in a lot of natural treasure, this way, their child will be born with a high elemental grade.
Alice was happy with her progress and smiled, proud of herself.
In the Azure Continent, her thoughts were getting to the Overlord Plane, and if lucky, breaking through to the Sage Plane. Since meeting Grey, she didn’t know what happened, but she felt like the Overlord Plane was the start of their cultivation.
In little over ten years of cultivating, she had gone from a normal human to the Peak of the Sage Plane. She was still thinking about her speed when she took a glance at the fellow close to her. Grey had been cultivating for a shorter time, but he was advancing so fast that it was almost impossible to catch up to him.
“Do you think Klaus had broken through?” She asked.
When they were fighting before entering this place, Klaus almost broke through causing their deaths, luckily, Grey stopped him.
“Most likely.” Grey replied.
They didn’t stay there any further and left. In this trial, other than the corpse of Magical Beasts, the next people wouldn’t get anything from this round. Grey’s group had taken everything, leaving nothing for others.
Compared to the last trial, people would have to endanger their lives here, and other than beast cores of corpses, there was nothing like a reward for them.
….
The next round.
The moment Grey appeared, he was taken aback when he didn’t see Alice with him.
“We’ve been separated.” He touched his chin as he looked around, his face fell when he saw the group in front of him.
The group consisted of six people, and three of them were from the Syphilis Faction. He recognized them from when they were coming his way outside the building.
They were currently staring at a figure in an arena.
“Ah!”
The painful scream drew Grey’s attention to it. In the arena, Grey saw two people fighting. One of them was a young man, the other was a middle-aged lady. Thinking about the young man Grey saw at the place where the armor was located, he knew this person was not human. She was a spiritual body.
The scream came from the mouth of the young man whose body had been impaled by a long spear made from the earth element.
His movement was incomparably slow at the moment. Even an Overlord Plane Elementalist was faster than his current speed.
‘Guess this round focuses on fighting against that lady.’ Grey wasn’t in a hurry, he wanted to see what the lady was capable of.
After a few more exchanges, the young man was tossed out of the arena. The lady spoke mechanically.
“Failed.”

One of the people in the group of six walked forward. Her cultivation stage was lower than that of the young man who just lost.
When she stepped on the platform, the lady spoke mechanically once again.
“Defeat me and go to the next round.”
The young lady didn’t wait for her to complete her state as she attacked.
The lady’s cultivation stage had reduced to the same stage as her opponent. This would make the battle fair.
Grey already thought of this.
The lady and the young lady started to exchange attacks. Being caught off guard by the young lady, the middle-aged lady was placed in a passive state, unable to take control of the attack. She had the same strength as the other, but with vast battle knowledge.
Their battle lasted for over ten minutes and the young lady won by a small margin after risking her life.
Grey clicked his tongue when he saw her in action, “Ruthless!”
The other six looked at Grey.
The trio from the Syphilis Faction took a glance at Grey. Of the three, two were in the Elemental Venerable Plane, while the last was in the Sage Plane. Their eyes revealed smiles, but they didn’t attack.
There were still three people present, if those people decided to help Grey out, then they would be the ones who were in trouble.
The young lady advanced and went to the next round, leaving the others. She was injured, but she didn’t want to stay here to heal.
The trio from the Syphilis Faction looked at the two who hadn’t attempted the round yet, and after some convincing, they stepped forward.
The eyes of the trio were kept on Grey’s body, they wanted to kill him.
Grey was smiling as he looked at them, he didn’t even make any movements when he sensed the killing intent in their eyes.
One of the duo walked forward and tried, failing like the first young man, grievously hindered as well.
The trio from the Syphilis Faction looked at the last one who hadn’t attempted it. Gritting his teeth, he stepped on the platform. In the end, he won, heading to the next round.
Two passed, two injured, leaving only the trio from the Syphilis Faction, and Grey.
Grey hadn’t gone close to them all this while, keeping some distance from them.
“Why don’t you try, it’s your turn.” The one in the Second stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane grinned at Grey.
“You guys go first, I saw you here, after all.” Grey smiled softly.
