Chapter 2885: Chapter 41: Anye: Heard Someone Wants to Test Their Luck

”Don’t lose heart,” the Eldest Princess of Jade River comforted, ”If all three initial slots fail, the remaining contestants will draw again until someone inherits the Tian Yuan relic.”

Upon hearing this, the person immediately felt much better.

At the very least, it wasn’t a one-time elimination.

After him, the others also stepped forward to start drawing lots.

Wang Baosheng was among them.

But before going, Wang Anye gently patted Bao Sheng’s head with a smile, and said cheerfully, ”Bao Sheng, you don’t need to feel too pressured, the Saint Diagram will eventually come.”

”Thank you, great grandfather,” Wang Baosheng respectfully thanked.

”Brother Bao Sheng.” The chubby young boy with a blessed appearance, King Baofu, tiptoed to hug Wang Baosheng, his big eyes blinked, ”I believe you will succeed.”

”Thank you, brother Baofu.”

Wang Baosheng thanked him again, then went ahead to draw lots.

When he drew, the number plate turned out to be number three.

”Huh?”

Wang Baosheng was slightly puzzled, unable to resist looking at Wang Anye and Wang Baofu.

”Perhaps this isn’t a bad thing,” Wang Anye thought briefly and then comforted him, ”Anyway, you have made it to the top three, eligible to participate in the first round of testing.”

Upon seeing Wang Baosheng draw number three, the other young testers were all in despair, they started using various methods, seeking ancestral blessings or adopting other tactics, either cursing Wang Baosheng to fail the test or praying to draw a position ahead of him.

Amidst the hustle and bustle.

The results came out quickly.

The one who drew the number ”two” was a young man from the Jiang’s of Jade River!

The Jiang’s of Jade River is an exceptionally powerful Strong Saint Clan, only half a step behind the Yuhe Royal Family Wang’s. Moreover, their family not only has two Sacred Supreme inheritances but also a White Tiger Sacred Supreme.

It is said that an ancestor of the Jiang’s had good luck and befriended a young white tiger with a pure bloodline in youth, not only achieving the Sacred Supreme himself but also nurturing the white tiger into the White Tiger Sacred Supreme within the family.

This has made the Jiang’s leap into the second top family of the Jade River Sacred Dynasty!

Such luck makes even the Imperial Household envious. And the White Tiger Sacred Supreme has extraordinary combat power and a longer lifespan than ordinary Sacred Supremes.

As for the first place, it attracted envy, jealousy, and hatred from many.

This person is named Yu Beihe and is a disciple of the powerful Immortal Clan, the Yu Clan of Jade River.

This time, for his participation, the family not only spent three Chaos Spirit Stones to buy a ticket but also painstakingly sold off a batch of family assets, accumulating over ten Chaos Spirit Stones to enhance his Bloodline Talent.

At this moment, Yu Beihe’s Bloodline Talent has reached the Son of Heaven Grade B, barely qualifying to inherit the Saint Diagram.

However, jealousy is just jealousy, as ultimately everyone drew their lots individually; if luck doesn’t favor, there’s nothing that can be done. Furthermore, it’s impossible to question the Eldest Princess of Jade River and the Purple Frost Sword Saint, didn’t see their two families fail to draw even one of the four seed slots?

”Wang Baosheng,” Yu Beihe, full of pride, sneered at Wang Baosheng, ”Good luck, indeed, managing to draw the third slot! Unfortunately, this Tian Yuan inheritance ultimately has no connection with you.”

Previously in the ring, he was beaten half to death by Wang Baosheng and scolded like a child; now, with difficulty catching this opportunity, how could he refrain from mocking a few words?

Without waiting for Wang Baosheng to reply.

Jiang Haocang of the Jiang’s of Jade River, standing behind Yu Beihe, chuckled, ”Congratulations, cousin Behe, on getting first place, but time is running late, let’s quickly proceed with the trial.”

He is much younger than Yu Beihe but with a stable aura, his cultivation base is far deeper and superior compared to Yu Beihe. Obviously, his Bloodline Talent is exceptionally excellent.

Currently, the Jiang’s of Jade River is developing rapidly, the family has outstanding young disciples one after another, but the family’s Sacred Supreme inheritances are only two, not currently within inheritance period.

This makes Jiang Haocang’s situation quite awkward.

There’s no Saint Diagram in the family for him to inherit, either they must find ways to obtain a new Saint Diagram for him, or send him to the Dao Palace or the military.

Thus, for this opportunity of Saint Diagram inheritance, naturally, the Jiang’s of Jade River do not want to miss it.

Yu Beihe as his cousin seems to fear Jiang Haocang greatly, and immediately gave up taunting Wang Baosheng upon hearing him, chuckling awkwardly, ”Cousin Haocang, I will go, I’m going now.”

After speaking, he proceeded directly toward the Heritage Hall.

Watching Yu Beihe’s back, Jiang Haocang’s expression was calm and relaxed as if everything was under control.

Indeed.

The first and second positions this time were not accidental.

Others only knew the legend of the White Tiger Sacred Supreme and the one who rose in the Jiang’s, but they didn’t know that he had encountered a peculiar ”Jade Pendant” when he was young.

This jade pendant seemed ordinary on the surface, but in reality, it gradually absorbed a person’s fortune while being worn.

Therefore, the wearer became extremely unlucky; they stumbled while walking and chipped their teeth when drinking water.

The family ancestor had such bad luck in youth.

But after a hundred years, the jade pendant suddenly released a stream of warmth into his body and from then on, he became extremely lucky, finding Spirit Stones while walking, winning heavily in gambling, even in high loss probability games like Gambling Stone, he obtained an Immortal Spirit Stone!

However, this kind of luck lasted only for three days.

Three days later, he reverted to his unlucky state.

Later, he gradually understood that all this was caused by that Jade Pendant.

The function of the jade pendant is simple; it can extract fortune, as well as release fortune.

With this treasure, the Sacred Supreme ancestor walked down the path of ascent.

Since the jade pendant doesn’t recognize an owner, it can be given to the head of household or Tribute to wear, slowly accumulating fortune; the stronger the person, the more fortune can be extracted. When the fortune is full, the jade pendant can be stored and used at critical moments for optimal benefit.

Very naturally.

When in a crucial moment, the Jiang’s once again used their family heritage treasure — [Fortune Jade Pendant].

The path of fortune is profound and [Fortune Jade Pendant] has a very secretive effect; unless someone specializes in the path of fortune, even a Taoist Master might not be able to decipher the changes in fortune, so Jiang Haocang really doesn’t worry about being exposed.

Even if he were exposed, he wouldn’t worry about being robbed.

Firstly, the Jiang’s is not easy to provoke; secondly, to ensure the safety of the Fortune Jade Pendant, their family’s White Tiger Sacred Supreme is trailing behind him, secretly protecting him.

The White Tiger is truly the Void Sacred Beast. In the wild state, for sustenance, the White Tiger often has to traverse long distances in the Void Sea to find high-grade void creatures for hunting; its ability to move and conceal in the Void Sea is naturally above that of a Human race Sacred Supreme.

This is why the White Tiger Sacred Beast can stealthily follow them while ancestors from other families find it hard to trail silently.

As for the first place, Yu Beihe...

Speaking of this, Jiang Haocang was also slightly puzzled; according to the fortune divided from the jade pendant, logically he, Jiang Haocang, should be first!

However, even if there was some minor error, Jiang Haocang didn’t fear.

He firmly doubted Yu Beihe could ultimately pass the trial. After all, let him explore the path and see if there are any buried traps ahead.

Perhaps this is the best arrangement by the Fortune Jade Pendant.

With various trump cards, Jiang Haocang was naturally confident.

But when he wasn’t paying attention, while he was full of self-satisfaction, on the other side, King Baofu, who appeared silly yet blessed-looking, glanced at him, then pulled Wang Anye aside, whispering a few words.

After listening, Wang Anye suddenly appeared enlightened, then looked at those two kids Yu Beihe and Jiang Haocang thoughtfully.

Ah, that’s how it is.

The Sacred Domain indeed has abundant resources and various treasures, and it was here that he found an item related to the path of fortune.

Moreover, these two are relying on that object to compete in luck against him and King Baofu.

As everyone knows, fortune is a mysterious thing, especially when confronting the Tree of Fortune; if it goes wrong, it can backfire.

Wang Anye felt somewhat sympathetic to them.

These two kids probably think they have succeeded and are feeling pleased with themselves now? Little do they know which of them will be the unluckiest first and who will be the second unluckiest?
