Chapter 1153 - 1153 Bound Together For Good Or Ill
1153 Bound Together For Good Or Ill
Beatrice said, “The fourth round is a chaotic battle, which we’re familiar with. Its rule seems simple, but I think it’s the most difficult one among all the competition rules. Because there’s only one rule, and it’s that malicious killing is prohibited.”
Upon hearing the words ‘malicious killing is prohibited’, Yu Huang suddenly sneered. “The line between maliciously killing and accidentally killing is very blurry. If someone maliciously kills someone but insists that it’s accidental, what should we do?”
Beatrice frowned at Yu Huang. “That’s why I said that this is the most difficult. This is because a chaotic battle can be a chaotic battle, a team battle, or a personal battle, but only a hundred people can stay in the arena in the end.”
Sheng Xiao narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully, “The fourth test not only tests our cultivation, combat strength, and endurance, but also our humanity. When you reach the fourth test, you might not even be able to tell if the person beside you is a friend or foe. Because the person who hit you when you’re down might be your close friend.”
Therefore, this test was also a test of human nature.
Everyone’s expressions became serious.
No matter how terrifying the Blazing Flame Mountain was, it had no consciousness.
No matter how ferocious the demon beasts in the Demon Cave Forest were, their ferocious moves were out above board. They were not as furtive as humans.
The most terrifying and unfathomable thing in this world was human nature.
For the sake of power and status, brothers could fight each other, and friends could backstab each other.
One could never see through how sinister and terrifying the person standing beside one was.
Realizing this, Beatrice and the others broke out in cold sweat.
Noticing that everyone had tensed up, Yu Huang sighed.
Yu Huang suddenly turned to ask Feng Yuncheng, Donor, and the others, “Do you guys still remember the world called Earth that we went to through the Reincarnation Mirror?”
Estelle nodded hurriedly. “Of course I remember.”
“On Earth, there was a famous cartoon called ‘Calabash Brothers’.”
Estelle’s expression became strange and he said, “Only children watch it.”
“More or less.” Nodding her head, Yu Huang continued, “This television show is about seven gourds growing on a vine. The gourds transform into humans and fight the snake demon to protect their grandfather. The seven of us are like seven gourds on a vine.”
Yu Huang stared at everyone with a solemn gaze as she said, “The Holy Spirit Continent is the vine that raised us. The seven of us who came to the Cang Lang Continent to save our hometown are the seven gourds that grow on this vine. The seven of us will prosper together!”
“I, Yu Huang, swear here that no matter how great the temptation I face, I am willing to be loyal and protect you guys forever. Do you guys dare to swear with me?”
Sheng Xiao and the others looked up.
Staring at Yu Huang’s seemingly petite but powerful fist, Yin Rong and the others suddenly felt at ease.
At this moment, they realized with extreme profundity that they were in the same boat. Even if the other 293 participants on the field had ulterior motives, they would always be loyal and trust each other.
In the next second, the six of them raised their heads at the same time and pressed their fists against Yu Huang’s right fist tightly. Then, the six of them said in a low voice, “We’re willing to swear that we’ll be loyal and protect each other forever. We’re bound together for good or ill!”
After swearing on their souls, everyone instantly felt much more relaxed, and the atmosphere in the room returned to normal.
They discussed the things they needed to pay attention to in the second round for a long time. Seeing that it was getting late, Yu Huang pulled Beatrice’s arm and stood up, indicating that they should return to their rooms to rest. “We have to rest. There are new challenges waiting for us tomorrow, so we have to conserve our energy.”
At this moment, Donor suddenly kicked Feng Yuncheng’s calf and deliberately raised his voice to say to him, “Fourth, didn’t you and Beatrice agree to sleep in her room tonight? Beatrice is going back to her room, so why aren’t you going?”
When he said this, the room instantly fell silent.
Beatrice blushed while Feng Yuncheng looked up at her expectantly.
Yu Huang’s gaze darted between the two of them. Then, she smiled ambiguously and said, “I’ll definitely close the door properly tonight, so I won’t hear anything.” With that, she pulled Yin Rong, who was also snickering, out of the room.
Seeing that Yu Huang had left, Sheng Xiao quickly got up and returned to his room.
Estelle was also about to return to his room. Seeing that Donor was still in the living room and refusing to leave, he grabbed Donor’s arm and dragged him into the room. “Your Majesty, you should go and rest.”
Donor refused to leave and said, “Don’t pull me. I want to see if Fourth will really enter Beatrice’s room tonight.”
Estelle cursed Donor for being an idiot.
At this moment, Beatrice suddenly reached out and wrapped her arm around Feng Yuncheng’s shoulder. Then, she pulled him into her arms and led him out the door. Without turning around, Beatrice waved at Donor and said, “Yuncheng won’t be coming back tonight, so there’s no need to leave the door open.”
Donor was stunned when he saw that Beatrice had really brought Yuncheng to her room.
Didn’t they say that Beatrice hated men?
The two of them were really going to sleep together?
Seeing the door close with a bang, Donor tilted his head and gave Estelle a resentful look as he said, “Only the two of us are still single.”
Estelle rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, “You deserve it.”
His Majesty was good in every way, but his EQ was too low, so he would probably never find a wife in his lifetime.

As soon as she walked out of the boys’ room, Beatrice let go of Feng Yuncheng’s shoulder and walked towards the door of the female dormitory next door alone.
Feng Yuncheng was instantly disappointed.
He stood on the spot as he stared at Beatrice’s sexy and voluptuous body with a complicated gaze. For a moment, he couldn’t tell if he was disappointed or happy.
Beatrice opened the door with the iris scan and turned around to say to Feng Yuncheng, who was standing in the middle of the corridor in a daze, “Are you planning to stand in the corridor for the entire night?”
Feng Yuncheng’s eyes lit up. Then, he asked hopefully and nervously, “Your Highness, are you really going to let me in?”
Beatrice snorted. “It’s up to you.”
Then, she was about to close the door.
Feng Yuncheng quickly slipped through the door at lightning speed.
Beatrice looked up at Feng Yuncheng, who had been standing in the corridor in a daze a second ago but appeared at the entrance of her dormitory in the next second. She couldn’t help but snicker. “Tsk, you’re quite proactive.”
Feng Yuncheng was thick-skinned, so he replied with a smile, “This is a rare opportunity, so I can’t miss it.”
“You’re such a smooth talker.” Seeing that there was no one in the living room, Beatrice guessed that Yu Huang and Yin Rong had hidden in their room to give her privacy and her ears turned red.
