Unsure of how much time had passed since the fifth trial started, Jason finally answered the last question.
The questions had been extremely difficult to answer despite the fact that they were simply asking for one's honesty.
However, that was the essential point- to remain honest.
Jason had to face many moments in which he wanted to answer specific questions with a slightly tweaked answer instead of stating everything honestly.
Once he was done, he was immediately enveloped in a white shroud before the familiar robotic voice resounded in his mind.
[Fifth trial completed. 99% Honest. Extraordinary achievement. Passed!]
[All trials have been successfully passed. Teleportation to Legacy hall will be initiated!]
With these notifications resounding in his head, the white shroud took him away, before releasing him in front of a gigantic mansion.
It was constructed out of black stones called basalt and all kinds of other unique materials which made the huge mansion look magnificent.
There were also other buildings around, but Jason was only focused on the mansion because he could see Jennifer's energy fluctuations from within.
It looked like she was resting which astonished Jason, but the robotic voice that appeared in his head once again explained the situation.
[All participants have completed the Trials of Strength, Intelligence, Talent, Pressure, and Honesty!
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})Ranking will be created, and Merit points will be distributed!]
[Both Finalists have earned enough Merit points to face the Legacy Trial to receive the Main Inheritance! Only one individual will be able to procure it!]
[After procuring the Inheritance, an adjustment period of 3 Months will be initiated, and the Inheritor will be released outside Kinra Island to prevent accidents from occurring!]
Jason didn't expect to receive so much information, even less because the robotic voice had always been reticent.
However, now this seemed to have changed, which was quite advantageous.
Knowing the necessary Intel was important, and given the fact that both he and Jennifer were eligible to procure the main inheritance made him feel Jason reassured.
'I wonder what kind of reward I can choose from…'
The adjustment period of 3 months was extremely helpful for Jennifer, but Jason couldn't help but wonder when he will have to leave the Inheritance site.
It would be disadvantageous to leave the Inheritance site alone, but Jason didn't believe that he would be allowed to leave with Jennifer in a few months after she procured the entire Legacy.
'If I can choose to be teleported to a different location of the Island as a reward, I should probably pick that.
The Preactors will definitely try to kill me for destroying their plan, and as a punishment for procuring the items that had been stolen by the Traitor of their race… '
It was annoying, but Jason was also fully aware that kicking them out of the Inheritance site had been the only way of ensuring that they stayed alive!
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})The wrath of each Preactor was nothing to be taken lightly, after all!
Looking around the new place he had entered, Jason saw all kinds of buildings and constructions.
Yet, instead of being distracted from his path towards Jennifer, he took one step after another to the mansion.
Nevertheless, he wanted to make full use of his Emperor Eyes, which made him watch everyone thoroughly.
Because of that, it took him a while before he entered the mansion, where Jennifer was already waiting for him, pacing impatiently.
"Jason, you are finally here!" Jennifer exclaimed in relief, the moment Jason opened the large door to enter the mansion.
"Why finally? I shouldn't have taken much longer than you? Or did you rush through the questions?"
His voice was not supposed to sound offensive, but Jennifer could only smile dryly when she heard him.
"Well…I might have answered the questions a little bit too hurriedly. My passing score for the last round was the lowest amongst all trials. It was even worse than the second trial about the Maze…*Sigh*"
Jason nodded his head, his lips curling upwards slightly as he replied,
"Well, that's fine, I guess. You were also able to reach the threshold to enter the Legacy trial!"
Reassuring her, Jason's words allowed Jennifer to feel less embarrassed as she voiced her opinion,
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})"That's true. But if I'm able to procure the main Inheritance, It will take a few months to adjust, and I doubt that you can stay that long inside the Inheritance site…before I enter the Legacy trial, we will have to find a way for you to leave safely without encountering the Preactors.
What's the use, if I can obtain the main inheritance, but you die. That would be a loss in every possible way!!"
Jennifer sounded determined to find a solution for Jason, and somehow, it felt as if she was even more eager to find a solution to his issue than anything else.
Jason was not sure what had happened in the fourth trial, but it looked like he wasn't the only one who felt that something about him had changed.
Ever since he had felt Jennifer's warmth and the security she wanted to provide him with, Jason couldn't help but feel weird…different, everytime he looked at her.
Never having felt like this, Jason had yet to figure out what exactly it was, but he had one specific assumption.
It would make sense, but at the same time, he didn't think that he had time for this, and Jennifer probably felt the exact same.
In the end, both of them were extremely busy, and in the Era of cultivation, it was unlikely to be together all the time.
As such, it was almost impossible for Cultivators in a relationship to spend all day around each other.
There was no time if one pursued strength and different goals.
Yet, Jason felt that he was starting to like Jennifer!
Scratching the back of his head, he couldn't help but sigh when he realised that this might be the case only to try changing his train of thoughts.
"The rewards that I receive from the Inheritance site should be able to help me out with this. I doubt that any Inheritance site would forget to create a specific mechanism to avoid its former participants from being killed and robbed while they wait at the portal entrance.
An alliance of greedy participants who planned to attack those who had successfully reaped the rewards should have existed a long time ago already.
As such, I don't think you should worry too much. Rather, you can search for the portal that leads towards the Legacy trial!"
Jennifer couldn't help but frown when she heard how nonchalant Jason was.
At the same time, she felt as if he was avoiding spending some more time with her, which didn't make her feel any better.
Thus, Jennifer glared at him with piercing eyes.
Seeing this, Jason had to try hard not to smile childishly before he suggested,
"Before entering new dangers one should always rest a little bit. So, how about we take a look at the rewards? I have no idea how the reward system works here, have you heard something about it from Luna?"
Right now, Jason didn't even know how many merit points he had, which was something he should figure out first.
Fortunately, he had Jennifer by his side, and she knew almost everything that he required to know.
First, she pointed towards a wall where the ranking was displayed including the merit points.
"Oh? I didn't expect to have so many merit points…that's quite a surprise, isn't it?" Jason said, with a teasing tone in his voice.
This caused Jennifer to roll her eyes, knowing that he wanted to provoke her for earning more merit points than she had.
Yet, despite knowing this, she fell right into his trap which Jason found amusing.
"Yes…you are sooo great… Do you want to spar a little bit?!"
