Chapter 1085: Rock, Paper, Scissors

“You’re going to the treasures?”

Diaz and the others were looking at Su Ping and Shuai Qianhou with vigilance.

One of the senior brothers on the team, named Yu Jingze, said in a low voice in the end, “Junior brothers, you’re the strongest among us. We’ve arrived earlier than all the rest. The ultimate treasures are closer to us; don’t you think it’ll be better if each of you lead a team? Battles will be inevitable if other people randomly arrive near the tokens.”

“Senior Yu, good point.”

“Indeed, our junior brothers should each lead a team.”

“We should avoid casualties before the official competition starts.”

The other senior brothers and sisters agreed.

Su Ping’s eyes glittered. Shuai Qianhou was already frowning before he said anything.

He realized what Yu Jingze was planning the moment the guy finished.

The latter was unwilling to let go of the ultimate treasures!

Nobody knew how valuable those treasures, personally buried by their master, were.

Still, the guy didn’t want to reveal his true intentions. He wanted Shuai Qianhou and Su Ping to lead different teams to make them compete!

After all, even if they split up, they had to pick which of the teams would go to the treasures.

Undoubtedly, Shuai Qianhou wasn’t going to let go of the treasures; he was a new disciple, and he certainly didn’t have a deep bond with those senior brothers and sisters.

Besides, he was determined to get the true god’s legacy on that trip!

Once he reached the Celestial State, he wouldn’t consider those guys a big deal; they weren’t important to him even at that moment. He only thought better of Diaz because of his constitution; the others were just “normal” geniuses in his eyes.

“Junior Brother Su, what do you think?”

Shuai Qianhou didn’t disapprove of the proposal outright. He looked at Su Ping who had remained silent.

He did regard Su Ping highly, but he wouldn’t do everything for the guy.

Furthermore, he was trying to find out what his new senior brother was planning.

After all, even if they were on the same team, they would eventually have to compete after finding treasures!

Su Ping gave a look at Shuai Qianhou and the others, not expecting he would have to make a choice. He thought for a moment, then said, “I don’t think it’s necessary to split up. We can just go together for the ultimate treasures and then look for tokens. We can check how good they are if other teams find the tokens.

“If they only picked up tokens because of luck, we’ll just take the tokens from them and give them to people we like.”

Su Ping didn’t want to start an internal conflict right after the trial started.

“Well…”

They didn’t expect Su Ping to propose that; it sounded rather ruthless. Wouldn’t the other candidates be infuriated when the trial ended, if they didn’t leave them anything?

“That works too.” Shuai Qianhou put on a smile.

None of the others commented, seeing that Shuai Qianhou was on board. Yu Jingze nodded. “Let’s go and get the treasures then.”

“Let’s go! Hurry up!”

Whoosh!

All of them used their secret techniques and immediately ran toward the treasures.

Shuai Qianhou wasn’t the first to set off, but he quickly reached the front. He swiftly wandered and jumped across spaces, showing great familiarity with the law of space.

Su Ping took a quick glance, noticing that the guy had surely grasped the law of space flawlessly.

Indeed. He’s been a Star Lord for fifty thousand years; he has accumulated a lot…

Su Ping heaved a sigh and dashed forward. He didn’t use Sun Chaser; instead he used Void Walker, which he wasn’t very familiar with. He twisted space and moved quickly, like a sharp sting.

Su Ping caught up to Shuai Qianhou in the blink of an eye.

“Huh?”

Shuai Qianhou raised his eyebrows in surprise as he saw Su Ping approach. He complimented him in secret. As expected of a genius who condensed a small world in the Fate State. This youngster is good.

He no longer accelerated; he simply kept his current speed and distance from Su Ping.

Diaz, Yu Jingze and the others were close to each other, following behind Su Ping; all of them were using their best abilities.

The continent was as vast as three hundred Blue Planets; it would take half a day for Su Ping and the others to cross the entire continent.

Fortunately, maybe because their master had done it on purpose, they had been teleported to a place only ten minutes away from the treasures.

Later on, they reached a hill made of bare rocks. Ordinary people could get lost among the rocks for ten years or so without being able to walk out. Still, they went directly to the center of the rocky landscape.

“This is the place.”

Shuai Qianhou stopped and raised his head.

The rocky hill instantly fell apart. It was dissected layer by layer like an onion; the rocks were separated by space, revealing the treasure hidden inside.

It was an oval, plain-looking shield.

“Is this the ultimate treasure left by Master?”

Everybody was stunned to see that. Their senses were so keen that they could even count the number of legs an ant had.

The hill was very likely the treasury; still, there were no other items after being opened.

“This should be it.”

Shuai Qianhou’s eyes glittered. He raised his hand and summoned the item over to him.

Su Ping immediately approached, and so did Yu Jingze, Diaz and the others.

“Is this one of the secret treasures? Does it have any powerful functions?” asked a senior sister curiously, named Elena.

“There are no waves of laws coming off of it, but it seems to be carrying a special power.” Diaz frowned and seemed to have sensed something.

“Why didn’t Master tell us what kind of treasure it was? It is obvious that Master was certain that we would pick up this treasure before the other forces arrived. He could have given it to any of us before the trial,” said a young man named Jiang Si with a solemn tone.

Shuai Qianhou’s eyes glittered. “Maybe it won’t be activated until it acknowledges its owner.”

“How will it acknowledge its owner?” Yu Jingze narrowed his eyes.

Shuai Qianhou glanced at him and said calmly, “Although the Federation has made great technological achievements, our abilities in making secret treasures aren’t as good as those from the ancient times. Most of the secret treasures we use were acquired from ancient relics; I cannot see any signs of our civilization on this item. It’s probably an ancient treasure too.”

“If it’s indeed an ancient treasure, it will probably acknowledge its master using the old ways, like a drip of blood, or a mental seal!”

Yu Jingze was silent. Naturally, he had already thought of that; what he really wanted to ask was who would get to claim it!

Everybody was silent; the atmosphere became awkward.

The treasure that their master had left was an artifact, instead of food or pills.

It meant that the treasure was very likely instrumental in the rest of the trial!

After all, if it were a normal treasure, he could have given it to them beforehand. The most important purpose of the trial was to get the true god’s legacy.

“Since all of you are hesitating, why don’t I claim it?” Su Ping suddenly said, breaking the silence.

Everybody was shocked.

Shuai Qianhou was also stunned; he gazed at him.

Diaz also stared at Su Ping, lost for words. The latter spoke as if he were sacrificing himself to solve everyone’s troubles.

However, he didn’t seize the opportunity to mock Su Ping; he simply looked at Shuai Qianhou.

Yu Jingze and the others also looked at the latter for confirmation.

Even though all of them were Shuai Qianhou’s seniors; they knew that he and Su Ping were the strongest members of their team.

To be more exact, Shuai Qianhou was the strongest.

Still, Su Ping was also a distinguished warrior; he couldn’t be simply brushed off.

“Come on.” Su Ping extended his hand.

Shuai Qianhou seemed calm; the situation didn’t anger him at all. He simply stared at Su Ping, as poised as a rock, but he didn’t give away the stone shield.

Seeing that, Su Ping thought for a moment and said, “You’re unwilling to give it away? Why don’t we play a game of rock, paper and scissors, and the winner will keep it?”

Shuai Qianhou’s eyes twitched.

Diaz, Yu Jingze and all the others were shocked, finding the proposal absurd. You want to decide who keeps such an important treasure in such a childish way?

However, Shuai Qianhou nodded after a moment of silence. “Fine!”

“Let’s just play one game.”

Su Ping said with a smile, “I will show scissors.”

Diaz: “…”

Yu Jingze and the others: “…”

Shuai Qianhou: “…”

Is he really playing such a childish psychology trick?

Shuai Qianhou suddenly said to everybody else, “Let’s ask our senior brothers and sisters to act as judges for us.”

“Okay.” Su Ping nodded. “Senior Brother Yu, please count down for us.”

Yu Jingze was stunned for a moment. Then, he took stock of the situation and took a deep breath. “All right. Get ready.”

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

The laws in the environment changed instantly.

There were intense collisions in space and time.

All the laws were manifested for the sole purpose of suppressing the opponent, all to win before their opponent could react!

Su Ping and Shuai Qianhou extended their hands at the same time, changing thousands of times in the blink of an eye, and the result was…

Su Ping won!

He really went for scissors!

Shuai Qianhou, however, had chosen paper!

Did he win because of the psychology trick?

Certainly not!

Shuai Qianhou changed his expression, and stared at Su Ping thoughtfully. How was it possible? His path of space is perfect!

He had mastered all four supreme laws too!

Although his path of time was not perfect, Su Ping’s wasn’t either!

He was somewhat surprised to find that the guy had mastered the path of time, when he thought he would win. He failed in the end.

He had clearly suppressed Su Ping in the clash with the perfect path of space, which infinitely shortened the space between them!

Su Ping was completely unable to resist with his power of space. Their hands had moved constantly, but Su Ping was the winner in the end..
