Chapter 108: Banter With The Hunter
More than an hour had passed since Han Xuhan had come out of the second platform. The leaderboard hadn’t changed much in the meantime. Almost everyone inside the third challenge had passed, evidently.
Was it that easy to pass that stage? Han Xuhan couldn’t help but wonder. Amongst the twenty cultivators inside, eighteen had already received their judgments, managing to get their hands on different types of legacies of the Holy Land.
The two who hadn’t, however, were both Han Xuhan’s companions. Mu Ran and Xuanyuan Zhou’s slots were still displaying the pending status.
Just as Han Xuhan was adding the finishing touches to his new defense plan, a burst of pale violet radiance appeared on the platforms, nearly blinding him.
After blinking off the blurry vision, he discovered the lone figure of Qian Yun jumping down from the platform of Sentient Contracts. Han Xuhan breathed a sigh of relief. At least it wasn’t any of the ’allies’ they had forcibly recruited on their way here.
"Brother Yun, how did it go?" He asked with a smile. Qian Yun stared at him silently for a few seconds before nodding slowly.
"It went well. I got access to the path of Sentient Contracts."
Han Xuhan narrowed his eyes behind his mask, but didn’t ask further questions. If things were that simple, he had no reason to worry.
But his experience inside the platforms was not exactly pointing to a conclusion so straightforward...
"Why are you standing out there, Brother Xuhan? Did you not participate in the challenge?" Qian Yun asked in a confused, somewhat accusatory tone.
Han Xuhan laughed nervously.
