The group heard Ziran's words and paid attention.

"What is it?" Lin Mu asked.

"The theme should probably be resourcefulness or at the very least versatility." Ziran replied. "Considering how the different obstacles need us to use varying methods, it does seem like it."

"Hmm… Now that I think of that," Lin Mu stroked his chin. "Our grouping seems to be complimentary too. I reckon the same is for Crown Prince and the others." He guessed.

"It might really be so. The Trial grounds are testing us in a relatively 'balanced' manner. And seeing as it wanted us all to trust each other and succeed in the second trial, it definitely wants us to rely on each other to progress through them." Ziran agreed.

"It wouldn't be the first time something like this has been seen." Lady Kang chimed in. "Though it is indeed a property one usually sees in the inheritance grounds of orthodox experts. Those of the unorthodox path are a lot more sly and the trials are often unfair." She elaborated.

"If this holds up, it is a good thing for us." Ziran replied. "At the very least we know that the creator does not wish to doom us right form the start." "It also gives us hope in terms of failure." Elder Hu spoke up. "We might not necessarily be trapped if we fail a trial." Since his duty was to ensure the safety of Lady Kang, all that mattered to him was that they got out alive, and unharmed.

Thus he didn't care whether they failed or not. "That does feel reassuring." Lin Mu could agree with the armored man. "Though I do wonder how Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others are faring." He expressed his thoughts.

"I'm sure they'll be fine." Ziran stated. "Other than Qiao De, all of them have been trained in the Immortal Court and are strong experts. Qiao De himself is resourceful and wouldn't fail easily either." Lin Mu nodded before they moved forward.

The corridor seemingly extended into an infinite expanse of darkness, hidden within it tens of obstacles.

About eight hours had passed by and the group had crossed more than thirty obstacles by now. Each of them was different from each other and needed varying methods to cross. But none of the obstacles were something that the group had trouble for longer than a few minutes.
