"There are those who willingly chooses to suffer in this desert?" Yang felt incredulous.Once again, Ying was amazed by how little knowledge Yang actually possessed. What did he do during his lessons? Did he sleep like a pig through them? Or did he ditch them totally?
"The original concept of the Trials are to provide immortals with others means than the traditional ways to increase their cultivation and improve their wisdom. The harder the trial is, the better the reward will be."
Ying threw Yang"s backpack at him before she continued.
"If we really manage to complete this trial, the benefits would be many. If we however never succeed, we will forever be trapped in this place. Considering the fact that no one has yet to accomplished this, our future doesn"t really seem so bright."
"Oh." Yang was enlightened. Truthfully, he hadn"t known this piece of information before. After reaching a certain age, he lost all interest in studying and instead chose to cultivate or laze around. As the heir of the Fire Clan, the teachers found it harder to discipline him, which resulted in today"s situation.
Suddenly he realized something and exclaimed.
"That"s why Flash parted with that advice!"
"Yes."
The Ice G.o.d couldn"t help but shake her head internally for this stupidity. It took him two days to understand something simple as that.
"Are we done?" Ying baited him to see if he truly had fallen for her trap.
"Yeah." He answered absentmindedly as he pondered.
If Ying had been more expressive with her feelings and emotions, she would have smirked at the moment. He was totally distracted from the main topic and hadn"t even realized it.
"Then let"s go. The temperature is increasing and we have a long journey ahead of us. We will try the same tactic as last time, but walk west this time." She started to walk away.
As his partner left his visual field, he was awakened from his contemplation and quickly ran after her.
Inwardly he also cursed his curiosity. Now he lost the opportunity to make her apologize to him, since they would focus on traveling and limiting the water losses.
Yang promised himself to confront her as soon as the sun descended from the sky.
