Chapter 5105 — The Primordial Trial

He had expected Leng Leng to be at least a little angry, but instead the girl's lips suddenly curved upward. "Still, it's just as well. At least it proves I didn't pick the wrong man—otherwise, could all those girls really be blind?"
Wei Zhao was instantly defeated by her formidable logic. True, all those girls being blind was an infinitesimally small probability—but did she really not feel even a trace of jealousy?
"You're not angry?" Wei Zhao asked cautiously.
"Why should I be angry?" Leng Leng looked genuinely puzzled. Powerful men naturally drew women's favor; for a figure like Wei Zhao to have many confidantes was only to be expected in the Primordial Small Jianghu. Was there any reason to be angry?
"Well..." Wei Zhao was stumped on the spot, choked for a long moment with no idea what to say. He could only change the subject. "By the way, after your training in the secular world is over, will you go back to the Primordial Small Jianghu?"
"No. Right after the secular-world training comes the Primordial Trial. Only after the trial ends do we return to the Primordial Small Jianghu," Leng Leng said, shaking her head.
"This Primordial Trial you mention—isn't it in the Primordial Small Jianghu?" Wei Zhao asked, puzzled.
"It is, and it isn't," said Leng Leng.
"What's that supposed to mean? That sounds rather cryptic." Wei Zhao was utterly bewildered.
"Actually, I'm not too clear on it myself. In any case, the only way to reach that place is through a teleportation array. No other method can get you there, and no one has ever truly been able to discover its location. The only connection between the Primordial Small Jianghu and that place is a one-way teleportation array—it seems you can only teleport from that place to the Primordial Small Jianghu," Leng Leng explained.
"A one-way teleportation array? So you can't teleport from the Primordial Small Jianghu to that trial ground at all—then how do you even take part in the Primordial Trial?" Wei Zhao grew even more confused.
"In the past, the Primordial Trial was held somewhere else, but this time we've run into a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. We can teleport there directly from this transit point, and after the trial ends, teleport back to the Primordial Small Jianghu from there. That must be how the Primordial Alliance has arranged it," Leng Leng said.
"There's a teleportation array here that goes to that place?" Wei Zhao was startled. But this transit point clearly had only two teleportation arrays—one connecting to the secular world, one to the Primordial Small Jianghu. He hadn't seen a third one before. Could it be on one of the other islets?
"Seems so. I'm not too clear on the details myself, but one thing I'm certain of: there is no third teleportation array on these islets," Leng Leng said, shaking her head.
"Then that's strange indeed." Wei Zhao frowned.
"That's not for us to worry about. Uncle-Master Xin will surely explain when the time comes," Leng Leng said indifferently, though a flicker of irrepressible excitement showed in her eyes. According to the Primordial Alliance, this chance at the Primordial Trial was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity; any cultivator with even a shred of ambition would find it hard to contain their excitement at such a chance—and naturally, she was no exception.
Wei Zhao clicked his tongue in wonder as he listened, but just as Leng Leng said, Xin Yi'an would naturally reveal the answer when the time came. There was no need to dig to the bottom of it right now. (To be continued.)
