Chapter 305: The Secret Region’s Information
Princess Lan Yi Hua’s face was dark because the number of cities was far above her expectation. To think that there were a total of 13 cities which hosted such event and bet with cultivators’ life as if they were nothing more than ants.
It was a bit infuriating.
Prince Lin Yan naturally noticed Princess Lan Yi Hua’s feelings. "There are more countries like this. It’s only normal that lower ranked cultivators are treated as trash. After all, this is the world where the strong reigns while the weak can only submit."
"It’s just... I don’t like it."
"It’s a form of enjoyment for bigger kingdom and naturally they didn’t even have law to go against it. The only reason why both Sun Kingdom and Hua Lan Kingdom are against it is because they want to prevent the number of cultivators in the country from reducing so greatly."
That was the only reason.
If the kingdom were to advance further, it was clear that even the ruler would be helpless if their subordinate, the noble families, were to use the lower ranked cultivators as servants.
After all, not everyone could enjoy the same amount of resources. There was always imbalance between the number of cultivator and the number of available resources.
Lin Xiao himself couldn’t really say anything about this matter. He naturally knew that lower ranked cultivators or even those ordinary people could work for higher ranked cultivators for some benefit that they could receive.
There might be more in the future.
He was not that kindhearted as to bother with everyone but if he saw them, he didn’t mind giving them some beating if he wanted to and naturally, only if he was powerful enough to do so.
If he was also weaker, he would just seek for trouble.
"This method of training can help reduce some trash cultivators who are actually not strong enough and mostly only rely on their background." Prince Lin Yan looked at the other four.
"Have you done this before, Big Bro?" Prince Lin San asked.
Prince Lin Yan’s lips twitched as he waved his hand, clearly refusing to answer. It seemed that there must be someone else who was also forcing Prince Lin Yan to do this in the past when he was still weaker than now.
It was already years ago so there were already more young masters who were involved in this trade.
Oh well, it was not Lin Xiao’s business.
"Hmm, we’ve finished all the cities... Don’t you need to return first, San?" Lin Xiao looked at his twin brother.
"Nope."
"You took the missions earlier than me, right?"
"Don’t worry, after three years, we’re all allowed to stay for a longer period of time outside of the academy." Prince Lin San grinned. "I’ll only need to return back after a year’s time to contend for ranking. Hmm, that means I’ll probably join yours."
Lin Xiao blinked his eyes. "There’s such rules?"
"Yep. It’s not like all cultivators liked to be confined inside the academy. If you have more chances to traverse the world and gained more opportunity to grow stronger, who wouldn’t want to take it?" Prince Lin San shrugged.
Staying in the academy had its benefit but it also had its downside. In such confined place, what they could see and experience was limited. Knowledge could be earned by studying but experience could only be gained by experiencing it by themselves.
These geniuses wouldn’t grow if they stayed confined in one place so naturally, they would be trying to find a way to get out and experience more of the world. It was also precisely this reason that made so many geniuses fell on their path to become stronger.
Not everyone could survive in the long road to become a powerful cultivator.
Prince Lin Yan took out his Communication Jade and listened for a bit. "There’s a treasure appearing not far from here. It’s one of the secret regions’ treasure."
"Secret regions?" Princess Lan Yi Hua looked up. Her brows furrowed. She naturally knew about those secret regions area.
There were many of them and most of them would only open every few years and have some limitation about who could get in. She herself had never been to one because there was no way there would be a secret region only for those at Body Training.
Mostly they would be limited to Foundation Establishment and above.
The upper limit was not known because the strongest here was only at Golden Core Stage 3, so it naturally meant that there was no way they could test with someone who was even stronger.
However, secret regions were also very dangerous. It contains treasure but it might take their lives if they were not careful enough.
"Is it the Underground Cave one?" Princess Lan Yi Hua asked.
Prince Lin Yan nodded. "He’ll explain more after we reach his house."
"Ok."
With the teleportation array, they reached his home once more. Just like usual, Hu Fei was already waiting for them. His eyes lit up when he saw them all appearing in front of him. "There’s jackpot!"
"Explain slowly."
"Tsk, the Underground Cave is only open once every 5 years. Previously, a large portion was reserved for Her Highness, Princess Lan Xiao Yue. However, since she was still in the Sun Kingdom and already enjoyed the heritage in the academy, the spot is open again."
"Heritage in academy?" Lin Xiao asked in confusion. He never heard something like that.
"Ah, you don’t know? Those proclaimed as the Son of Heaven and those who are powerful enough can enter a secret region that’s inside the academy. Princess Lan Xiao Yue will be entering that place after she consolidated her power along with many other princes who have qualification to obtain the throne."
Princess Lan Yi Hua looked up coldly. The cold glint in her eyes intensified for a moment before she suppressed it.
Heh, what a good family.
They prepared such a good place for her sister but left her with none.
