The immortal trials

/*unedited*/

The afternoon sun is already high up in the sky while the atmosphere of the city looks tranquil and calm. At this time, in a restaurant located a few kilometers away towards the Great Wu academy, three people are currently sitting near the window while having some tea.

Shin Jiao currently expressing his gratefulness at the two people who had helped him before after receiving some grievous wounds. Although they left him in the hotel and was almost assaulted, he did not take to heart because he understood that the two could not stay with him until he got well. They too have their own concerns and he understands that.

Right now, while they are drinking some tea. The young woman is curiously trying to check Shin Jiao's condition. She even scanned him more than he can count which made him feel a bit awkward. The young woman is very straightforward and he knows of her pure intent.

"Master, how can this be? No matter how hard I think about it, this is not possible right?" she said while trying to think of what she saw from Shin Jiao's body.

When they found him in the forest, they clearly knew his condition. A broken dantian and in a comatose state, he should either be dead or have become trash. But right now, what the woman could not believe is the strength that Shin Jiao possesses.

When he was fighting against the Jiao ancestor, Jin Lo Jiao, the two are actually watching from afar. And the young woman could help herself but gasped in disbelief. She could not fathom how can a mere gold core realm, take down a cultivator halfway to reaching the late stages of the infant soul realm. Even she herself would die if she encountered the old man. Hence she was really shocked and amazed at the same time.

"Haha… Young lass, in this world there are many things that we could not explain. Many mysterious things…" the old man said mysteriously.

"By the way, senior this junior's name is Shin Jiao. May I have the honor to know the senior's name?" Shin Jiao introduced.

As of now, he truly wanted to show his gratefulness towards the two and to address them properly through their names.

"Ah… you can call me Master Bo. And this young one is my great-granddaughter, Beisha Huang." The old man introduced.

"Master Bo, once again I am truly grateful for your help from before. I can only repay you with money or artifact as those are the things that I have right now. With your cultivation I would not say that you needed some help with labor, right? Haha…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"Of course, my grandpa is a very strong person. Who would want the help of an ant-like you?" Beisha Huang said with a sneer. She would always call her grandpa, 'master' which made the old man a little helpless. But every time she calls him grandpa Master Bo's heart would always feel elated.

Hence after hearing her boost, the eyes of Master Bo or Bo Gidong shone in gladness.

This reaction of the old man did escape Shin Jiao's notice.

Although her words are a little demeaning, Shin Jiao didn't mind her at all because he knows that with the support of her great grandfather no one would dare offend her. But what baffled Shin Jiao is the background of the two. Although he is curious and wanted to know who they are, still he is not that stupid to ask.

People have their secrets, which he understood really well.

As they continue talking about some small stuff, Shin Jiao noticed that time has already flown by at it seems that the sun is almost at the horizon.

"Senior, sister… this one is happy to have seen you once again. Since it's already getting late, this one would like to take his leave." Shin Jiao politely said while cupping his hands.

"Ah… we were truly immersed in our talk. Well, before you go junior, I want to give you something…" Master Bo said as he handed Shin Jiao a golden scroll.

"I will give you a chance to enter the immortal trials. It has already started a month ago, and the next trial would resume next month. So I hope that I would be seeing you there. I hope that you won't waste this chance to enter one of the immortal schools. This way your talent and strength would not be wasted. This is the last scroll I have and I have chosen to give it to you." Master Bo said with a smile.

"Master, I thought that you would give that to…" Beisha Huang suddenly interrupted.

But she stopped upon noticing the expression of her great grandfather.

As they separate their ways, Shin Jiao watches the departing figure of the old man and young woman who walks calmly towards the direction of the kingdom of Wu's main castle.

Shin Jiao then departed towards the direction of the academy.

While running he is thinking of the things that the old man told him about the immortal trials. At that time, he didn't know why the old man is talking about what would happen in the trials, yet when the old man gave him the golden scroll then Shin Jiao realized that the old man is actually trying to tell him in advance the things that he needed to prepare.

At the same time, Master Bo is also trying to see if Shin Jiao would show any greedy expression or any urge to ask on how to enter the trials. But of course, Shin Jiao didn't care about any of that. Right now, his mind is on the completion of the phone and its stability. Then, he also plans to improve the civilization of this world so that he can do his research in ease.

But suddenly it dawned unto him the importance of the immortal trials. Shin Jiao discovered that if he would enter an immortal school, his path of cultivation would continue and he might find a way to permanently repair his dantian sooner. Maybe there would be a clue on how he can heal his dantian without waiting for him to reach the specific cultivation which would take a lot of time.

Shin Jiao is a bit excited at this prospect and now that he has a chance to enter an immortal school, he could not wait to see what's in it.

While thinking Shin Jiao unwittingly noticed that he had actually reached the gates of the academy.

"Hmm… I never would have thought that I was able to reach this place soon." Shin Jiao muttered as he stops running and calmly walks towards the gate.

Either by chance or happenstance, Shin Jiao saw five people whom he had seen before. These people actually have some resemblance to him because they are members of the younger generations of the Jiao family.

Shin Jiao didn't have any unresolvable feud with these people and they didn't cause him any grievances. Those people who are of a threat to him and his family were already taken care of by him before the Jiao family was exiled.

Shin Jiao didn't want to talk to the young members of the Jiao family. So he decided to ignore them and move one. But suddenly one of the young men jumps in front of him and blocks his way. The other also moves to surround him.

"You… you are that useless Shin Jiao, right? You are the reason why my family was exiled to that damnable village! I won't forgive for this!" shouted the young man.

"Yeah! You just rely on your mother and those bitches' power. Let's see if you can escape our grasp!" the other shouted in support.

When Shin Jiao saw this, he could not help but shake his head.

The defeat of the Jiao family ancestor is only known to the old people and the head of the clans and families in the city, but this information was hidden from the young people. This is because it could affect the prestige and respect of the young ones to those who are in power. Although at first it would be a great crucible to inspire the young ones to become strong, yet in the long run, it would cause the future generation to start looking down on their elders and dissension would arise among the families.

Hence this information was decided to be hidden.

So now, Shin Jiao is facing the mocking and threats from the younger generations as they mock him for being too ambitious in grabbing the patriarch seat of the Jiao family.

"You people are like bees that are buzzing on my ears and its getting annoying." Shin Jiao thought.

But he didn't want to fight against them as it is below him. So he just used shadow steps and disappears from where he stood and appears behind the stupefied young people.

Shin Jiao then walks calmly towards the academy while everyone was still dumbfounded. They didn't know what happened and how did Shin Jiao disappear in an instant. If this is a true battle then they would have died without even knowing how.

This scene made the younger generations of the Jiao family develop fear and trepidation towards Shin Jiao.

After that Shin Jiao focused on helping the research team in completing the phone technology so that it can be deployed as soon as possible. And with his help, everything was finished in just a short time.

The bulk of his time was spent in explaining the technology and how it works to those teachers and students of the academy.

Hence, a week later the phone technology is now operational and the crafting department has already begun selling the prototype phone to the public.



In a certain house within the city of Wu, a middle-aged woman is currently sitting on the floor while cultivating. Her brows are arched because of some trouble she encountered while trying to breakthrough.

She had repeatedly look at the scroll beside her, yet no matter how much she thinks about it, it seems that she could not understand the meaning of the written words.

In her confusion, she turned her glance towards a small black object on the table.

She then remembers that her husband just bought this object a week ago. He also taught her how to use it at that time.

She thought for a while and suddenly stood up. She felt a little skeptical of the black object but right now she didn't have any choice as she can only ask her husband for help.

She looks at the number on the side of the table and dialed it down on the number pad after lifting the handle. Then, after dialing she heard a tone on the small voice rune which is inside the handle. She then puts it near her ears to listen more clearly.

Not long later a familiar voice appears on the other end which made her expression turned in delight.
