Chapter 127: Chapter 127: In the Tiger’s Cage

Wang Jun remained silent.

The others also shook their heads indicating there were no issues.

Lu Xiao now became interested as well; he was curious about what the so-called resources within the Goo Clan really were.

Could it possibly be like the elixirs in novels? Could one eat them and enhance one’s strength?

If that were the case, he would have to fight hard for them.

"The five of you, please step forward," the old man’s gaze swept over Lu Xiao and the other four selected outsiders.

Lu Xiao took a few steps forward, and the other four also stepped out from the crowd.

Lu Xiao turned his head to look, and indeed, they were all very young.

One even looked to be less than one meter sixty, with a youthful face, probably only thirteen or fourteen years old at most.

"Next, there will be three tests,"

"focusing on courage, endurance, and disposition."

"The results of these tests will determine the resources you receive."

"The more resources you obtain, the smoother your path in Martial Arts will be."

"Do you understand?" the old man asked sternly.

All five of them nodded their heads.

"Good, let’s begin with the first test: courage."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, four or five people pushed a huge iron cage to the center of the area.

The cage was completely covered with wooden slats, making it impossible to see inside.

Lu Xiao was also puzzled; what was this? For a courage test are you just playing some sort of escape room game?

"Bro, what do you think is inside?" asked the thirteen- or fourteen-year-old boy next to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao grinned; the youngster was really playing along well, calling him "bro" right off the bat.

Just as Lu Xiao was about to say he didn’t know, a ferocious roar of a tiger came from within the cage.

A massive roar so close, it was quite intimidating.

Even many of the young people from the Su Family showed a hint of fear in their eyes.

The three tests for the outsiders were usually jointly stipulated by the high ranks of the Goo Clan.

They were never quite the same each time, sometimes hard, sometimes easy.

Clearly, this time it was absolutely ridiculous.

It started with a huge tiger.

Since it was a courage test, if he wasn’t mistaken, it probably involved being in the same cage as the fierce tiger.

"You presumably already know what’s in the cage; the test is simple, just enter the cage to pass,"

"Of course, whether you pass alive or dead is up to you,"

"Those who want to give up, tell me now," the old man said, his eyes piercing as he stared straight at Lu Xiao and the others.

Lu Xiao didn’t care that much; it was just a big tiger, no big deal.

But the other four, their expressions didn’t look too good.

Especially the boy next to Lu Xiao, who seemed to be trembling a bit.

"What happens if we give up?" someone quickly asked.

"Those who give up will be sent down the mountain," the old man answered indifferently.

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows; sent down the mountain? Probably thrown down from the mountaintop, right?

There would always be some who gave up; if they were really just escorted out, could he not find any information about the Goo Clan?

The other four didn’t speak, sensing the killing intent in the old man’s previous words.

"Since no one’s giving up, we’ll proceed by age, the youngest first," the old man pointed at the boy next to Lu Xiao.

The boy swallowed hard, hesitating to move forward.

Lu Xiao patted the boy’s shoulder; being afraid is normal, when I was your age, my master used to throw me into the forest to fend off various fierce beasts.

"Why not go? Are you choosing to give up?" the old man asked loudly and sternly.

The boy’s body jerked, then he suddenly said, "I think those older should go first."

Lu Xiao froze completely, damn...

Just when I was thinking about how well you were playing along, planning to have your back, you turn around and stab me in the back?

But Lu Xiao didn’t mind, in fact, it was good; it let him see the boy’s cunning nature.

"Alright, then..."

"You go in or consider it as giving up," the old man interrupted Lu Xiao directly, his eyes like sharp swords fixed on the boy.

Overwhelmed by the old man’s shout, the boy clenched his teeth, glanced back at Lu Xiao angrily, and then took steps towards the cage.

Lu Xiao felt somewhat nonplussed by the glare, thinking he should keep his distance from this boy in the future; otherwise... he might just kill him if he couldn’t control himself.

What a piece of work! Not that old, but with a vicious mind.
