Chapter 68 - 68: Explore The Trial Ground(Part 1)

(Bonus chapter for 50 power stone! Sorry for the delay)

After hearing her, Robert's mouth twitched. He was still not sure whether to be surprised by the new word, 'Trail Ground' or whether he should be surprised by the fact that they were digging in the ground in the middle of the night.

On top of that, they are doing it for fun. Tell me what's so fun about digging the ground?

Boom!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and a spiritual vortex appeared beside Slither and Celli. Both of their aura started to climb up, and they broke through and advanced successfully. 

After they opened their eyes one after another. 

"Wow! Both of you broke through? Congratulations." White Fang rushed inside the room and saw this. At this time she started to feel anxious in her heart. Everyone's cultivation has increased rapidly, only she is stuck at the peak of the Core formation realm.

At this speed, it won't be long before they catch up with their cultivation and overtake her. 

Thinking of this for the first time White Fang decided to cultivate seriously and increase her strength.

After Celli opened her eyes the first thing that she did was to rush toward White Fang and asked excitedly, "Trail Ground? Are you serious?" 

White Fang looked at Celli's abnormal reaction and said, "Yes, we found one. But can you tell me, what's this Trail ground?"

Celli was happy after hearing the first part of her sentence but hearing the latter part caused her to stagger. 

"You don't know? Then why are you so excited?" Celli looked at White Fang with an unbelievable look and said. 

"Snowball said that there must be a lot of delicious food inside." White Fang said seriously. Her eyes were filled with excitement when she said this.

'That'sexpected' Celli and the other two thought to themselves after hearing her. It's no brainer that these two gluttons would only be tempted by food.

"So Celli, what's this Trail ground?" Slither looked at Celli and asked. She seems to know about this. He can tell that just by looking at her excited face.

"I will tell you, let's go to the place first." Celli took some deep breaths and said. Robert and others nodded and followed White Fang who knew the location of Trail Ground.

Soon they came to the place mentioned by the White Fang. This place is located near the south part of the Cloud peak.

When Robert arrived he saw the ground near the place was caved in revealing a staircase leading underground.

Near the staircase, there was a boulder with some text written on it. Robert looked at the text and understood the text instantly.

'Trial Ground'

This text is written in Beast language so it's not a surprise that White Fang knows about the name of the place.

"It's really Trail ground! We have struck gold this time!" Seeing the solemn words written on the boulder Celli said excitedly. She was now in her human form so her cheeks were red due to excitement.

Seeing her excited look, everyone was puzzled. Robert looked at her and asked, "Celli what exactly is this trail ground?" 

"A Trial Ground is a mysterious place filled with opportunities. From what I know these trail grounds are numerous and are located in different parts of the world. These places are mostly left by peerless experts to pass their inheritance to the younger generation or are ruins of some great power who used these places as test places for their members. Inside there are various tests of varying difficulties. If you can pass the test then you will get a reward but if you fail you can still try again." 

Celli looked at their questioning face and said but after saying this her face became solemn and she continued.

"But there is some special trail ground which is very dangerous. If you can't pass the test inside you may lose your life directly. So it's better to be cautious while dealing with unknown trail ground." 

"This trail ground is precious for any powerful force. They occupy the trail ground and use It to train their members or invite others to join them. If the Taotie restaurant wants to reach a high level then they should have at least one Trail ground."

"This is all the information I know. So do you want to explore it?" After saying this she looked at others. Waiting for their decision.

Her choice is to immediately explore the place and reap all the benefits.

Robert felt Deja vu after hearing her. How come this setting seems familiar? It's as if he has experienced something similar….

Wait a minute! Trial? Test? Reward?

Damn! isn't it the same situation when he met Celli under the lake and almost died?

"Celli that place under the lake, is it a Trail ground?" Robert narrowed his eyes and asked seriously while looking at Celli.

Celli was startled after hearing him but she still replied, "Yes that place can be considered as Trail ground but it's a trap set up by the person who previously explored the place. The original reward was replaced by the previous person who passed the test. I would have been trapped for a lifetime if not for your help."

Mentioning this matter Celli gnashed her teeth in anger if not for Robert's help she would have died there even if she passed the test successfully. 

Suddenly Celli understood something and looked at Robert and asked cautiously, "Do you mean this place is…?"

"Yes, Although I don't know about the situation inside it's better to be cautious who knows that this place is a trap too." Although there are many benefits Robert maintained a clear mind and did not act rashly. Nothing is more important than life.

"So shall we bury this place again?" Cellu felt that his words make sense so she suggested this.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? With me here there would be no danger. I will smash anything that comes in our way to find delicious food." White Fang said with her hand on her hip showing her domineering yet cute side.

"Yes! That right the food is ours. If anyone tried to get in our way I will- I will--" Snowball wanted to make a domineering statement like White Fang but he didn't know what to say next so he simply shouted. 

"If anyone gets in my way then I will rob all their carrots and run away," Snowball said proudly he felt that he finally made a domineering statement. 

"What if they don't have carrots?" White Fang asked curiously she did not want to mock Snowball but she is just curious.

Hearing her Snowball was stunned as his mouth was wide open.

"Yes, what should I do?" Snowball shouted as he jumped in the same place anxiously. White Fang copied his actions and in a while, both of them started jumping game completely forgetting about the original question.

Three of them ignored these special products and thought about the situation seriously.

"Even if we don't do anything sooner or later others will find this place. If this place is as precious as Celli said then this place will be targeted by others. So rather than giving benefit to others we should explore it and increase our power. " Slither analysed rationally and gave a rational judgement 

Both Robert and Celli felt that his words are reasonable. Rather than fighting and giving benefits to others, it's better to explore this place and get the opportunity for themselves.

In the end, both Celli and Slither looked at Robert waiting for his decision. After all, he has the highest saying in the group.

Robert knew that Slither was right. They will not have a peaceful life after the popularity of Taotie restaurants continues to grow. They would face stronger opponents sooner or later.

Now that they have a chance to increase their strength it's better to grasp it than leave it out of fear.

If they don't do anything to this Trail ground then it would remain as a hidden danger for them. 

Thinking of this Robert made a quick decision, "Good then we will explore this place and include it under Taotie restaurant."
