Because the monsters that Molde captured this time were all docile in temperament.

Therefore, the vast majority of civilian trial participants can successfully subdue the initial monster before the specified time limit.

However, there are still a small number of civilian trial participants who fail to subdue the monsters due to fear of the monsters or because they adopt the wrong methods to subdue them.

Looking at these pale-faced losers, Li Xiang shook his head helplessly.

He was able to save a monster because the monster's life or death had little impact on the trial.

But it’s different for the trial-takers, their elimination is part of the rules of the Blood Hell Trial, even Kalina and Mold won’t easily violate the rules, let alone a nobody like him.

Moreover, these people cannot even tame such docile monsters. Even if they participate in the Blood Hell Trial, they will probably not survive more than a day or two. They will die sooner or later, so it is better to be freed early.

So Li Xiang avoided their pleading looks and made it clear that he was powerless to help.

When those eliminated people saw that Li Xiang couldn't save them, some of them lowered their heads in despair, while others smiled gratefully at Li Xiang, probably to thank Li Xiang for letting them have a full meal before they died.

Even more people scolded Li Xiang, calling him a hypocritical villain and cursing that he would die soon.

It was clearly not Li Xiang who captured them and sent them to die, and they were clearly grateful to Li Xiang before.

As a result, they now regard Li Xiang as their enemy and wish to drag Li Xiang into hell, simply because Li Xiang could not rescue them from Molde.

It's both ridiculous and sad.

"Someone, tear their mouths apart! Don't let them dirty my ears!"

Karina opened her red lips slightly, and her voice was as cold as frost.

"Forget it, Lady Karina." Li Xiang spoke out to stop her.

"Don't let this little thing affect the final sacrificial ceremony."

According to information revealed by Kalina, a sacrifice ceremony will be held at the end of each Blood Hell Trial as a reward for the winner.

These eliminated and unselected monsters are the sacrifices of the sacrificial ceremony, exchanging their lives and blood for the grace of the Demon Lord.

Li Xiang didn't know what the so-called gift was, but he felt that it was definitely not a good thing. He also didn't want to kill innocent humans and Pokémon with his own hands, so as not to reduce Lord Ryan's favor.

In addition, he has already aroused public anger and is bound to be besieged by trial-takers. The difficulty of passing the Blood Prison Trial normally has risen sharply, so he plans to ask for external help to overturn the table.

What? What about the undercover mission?
Li Xiang has his own considerations. He believes that experiencing life and death tests together is the easiest way to build relationships.

What's more, according to the analysis of experts, Karina's White Moonlight most likely died in order to save her in the Blood Prison Trial.

He only needs to simply replicate and rescue Karina from a deadly crisis to completely win Karina's heart.

But before that, what he had to do was to survive the first day. After all, it would take some time for him to go offline to deliver the message and for Lord Ryan to travel.

Thinking of this, Li Xiang glanced at Molde and saw that he was talking to Cliff and they seemed to be having a pleasant chat.

One was Molder who took his anger out on him, and the other was Cliff who was full of jealousy and resentment towards him. He knew without thinking that the two of them were plotting against him, as they were talking so happily together.

It seemed that he would not be able to get through the first day peacefully. He could only hope that Karina could make Molde cautious and not go too far.

While thinking, Mold and Cliff ended their conversation. He glanced at Li Xiang with a smile, his eyes full of teasing and sarcasm.

Karina also realized something was wrong. Just as she was about to call Cliff over to ask him about it, she heard Mord shouting:

"Now that the civilian trial participants have tamed the monsters, the Blood Hell Trial officially begins!"

"I emphasize again, there are no rules in the Blood Hell Trial. All we ask is that you survive to the end!"

"No matter what you do during the trial, we will not interfere!"

Molde deliberately raised the volume of the last sentence, and then continued:

"And all the spoils you obtain in the trial will belong to you!"

"Does it include Warcraft?" a trial-taker from the Shadow Church suddenly asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, the trial participants all turned their eyes to Li Xiang and the single sword sheath beside him.

Facing these people's malicious gazes, Li Xiang stood where he was with an unchanged expression.

Instead, the Tantan mouse in his arms looked around, then sighed silently, feeling like he was on a pirate ship.

"Of course!" Mord raised the corner of his mouth slightly, turned his head to look at Karina, whose face was livid, and deliberately asked: "Are you right, Master Priest?"

Karina bit her teeth lightly. No matter how slow she was, she could realize that Mold was targeting Li Xiang and was taking revenge on her.

"you"

Before Karina could get angry, Morde spoke first:

"I am asking you this question unnecessarily. The rules of the Blood Prison Trial have always been like this. As the person in charge of this trial, how could the High Priest openly violate the rules?"

Karina was suddenly speechless. The rules of the Blood Hell Trial were set by the Lord Leader and could not be changed by a priest like her.

She can give Li Xiang two magical beasts without violating the rules, and Molde can naturally plot against Li Xiang based on the rules as long as it does not affect the Blood Prison Trial.

If anyone interferes during the trial, the nature of the matter will change, and she and Li Xiang will be severely punished by the church.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Molde to be so mean as to transfer his resentment to you. It's my fault that I have implicated you." Karina apologized to Li Xiang in a low voice.

If Cliff heard this, he would definitely be jealous to the point of going crazy. You know, Karina has never bowed her head to a man, let alone admitted her mistakes and apologized.

"You don't need to apologize." Li Xiang said gently: "Even if you didn't have a grudge against Mord, I would still become the public enemy of these trial participants the moment you gave me the scabbard of the sword."

"But without the scabbard, it will be difficult for me to pass the Blood Prison Trial, so no matter what choice I make, I will become the target of public criticism."

"Rather than dying quietly on this island, it's better to make a big fuss and turn the world upside down, so as to avoid embarrassing you!"

Karina bit her red lips lightly: "Actually, you don't have to take what I said just now to heart. My face is not that important. As long as you can survive, that's all!"

Li Xiang smiled as warm as the sun and said softly:

"Don't worry, I won't die. We will go to see thousands of mountains and rivers together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Molde's voice sounded again: "The trial begins!"

Following Molder's order, the trial participants walked into the forest on the island in batches.

When it was Li Xiang's turn, he smiled at Karina, who looked worried, and said, "Trust me!"

After saying this, he walked towards the forest resolutely.

Karina stared at the figure walking away in a daze, and the memories in her mind resurfaced. When facing the enemy's pursuit, Ike smiled and said to her, "Trust me!", and then led the enemy away.

In a trance, Li Xiang's figure perfectly overlapped with Ike in his memory.

Karina clenched her fists fiercely, then looked at Molde fiercely and said in a cold tone:
"You'd better pray that he can make it through the trial alive, or I will fight you to the death!"

When Molde heard this, the smile on his face froze instantly.

He didn't expect Karina to go to this extent for a male lover. He seemed to have underestimated the importance of that boy in Karina's heart.

But now he can't turn back. He has already offended Karina and will be retaliated by her sooner or later. It's better to vent his anger first!
So Morde sneered and said, "Are you threatening me, Master Priest? I will report your words to the Master Protector exactly as they are. You should think about how to explain it to the Master Protector!"

"Don't use the protector to pressure me. I don't believe he can protect you forever!" Karina continued to threaten.

"Then we'll see!"

Molde snorted coldly, then took out the fireworks and released them into the air.

"Whoosh-bang!"

Red fireworks bloomed in the sky, announcing the official start of the trial.

The inky forest becomes the stage for the trial participants to fight, dotted with scarlet from time to time.
-
Li Xiang looked up at the gorgeous fireworks and murmured to himself:
"The quality of these fireworks is not good. They don't look good at all."

"What do you think?" he asked towards the trees ahead.

Following his voice, four trial participants in black robes walked out from behind the tree.

The black-robed leader grinned and said, "We are so lucky. We wanted to kill a few useless civilians, but we ended up running into a fat sheep like you."

"You are quite perceptive, but it's a pity that you have incurred public wrath."

Li Xiang said calmly: "What public outrage? It's just that you covet my sword sheath."

"It's good that you know it. Just hand over the scabbard of the sword to us honestly, and we can leave your body intact!" said the man in black robe coldly.

"You should be clear about the relationship between Lady Karina and me. Aren't you afraid of her revenge after the trial is over?" Li Xiang asked curiously.

The black-robed man responded with contempt, "Aren't you just the male favorite of the High Priest? You don't really think you have such a high status, do you?"

"The High Priest has had countless male favorites like you. If she really liked you, she wouldn't have let you participate in this Blood Prison Trial."

"Besides, even if the High Priest really wants to retaliate against us for you, we can still turn to Lord Morde. He is a close confidant of Protector Ram, and the High Priest must give him face."

Li Xiang raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure? Is there a possibility that you were fooled?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Hand over the scabbard of the sword immediately! How can a male concubine like you tame such a rare monster?" the man in black robe shouted loudly.

Li Xiang raised his hands and gave a French military salute: "Don't get excited. I can give you the scabbard, but there are four of you. Who should I give it to?"

Upon hearing this, the four men in black robes couldn't help but look at each other and subconsciously distanced themselves from each other.

The black-robed leader saw this and said quickly, "Are you stupid? He is obviously trying to sow discord between us!"

"There is only one sword sheath, but we can discuss how to divide it after we kill him. Worrying about this issue now will only give him a chance to escape!"

The other three men in black robes thought this made sense and were about to nod in agreement when they heard applause.

They looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Xiang clapping his hands softly, praising him: "You are quite smart. I will give you the scabbard of the sword."

The black-robed man at the head of the group's eyes lit up, and then he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Wait! Where did the sword sheath go?

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly stretched out from behind him and penetrated his body.

"Puch!"

He looked down at the dark shadow that passed through his chest, and suddenly realized:
"So the scabbard of the sword is behind me!"

After saying this, the black-robed man in the lead felt dizzy and fell to the ground, losing his breath.

Before the three men in black robes had time to react, Li Xiang's voice rang out again.

"It seems he doesn't want it, so I'll give it to you!"

"Single Sword Sheath, use Swallow Return!"

"Shh!"

Du Jianshao drew his sword from its sheath and, following the sword technique taught by Li Xiang, used the sharp blade to quickly slash across the neck of one of the men in black robes.

When it turned the corner and tried to slash across the neck of another black-robed man, the other man finally came to his senses and hurriedly ordered:
"Murkraven, stop it!"

The dark crow standing on the black-robed man's shoulder immediately spread its wings and crashed into the attacking single sword sheath, blocking its attack.

Seeing that the opponent was on guard, Du Jianshao stopped chasing him and turned back to Li Xiang, giving him a thumbs up with a ribbon.

The new sword technique is really useful and can kill the enemy with just one sword.

Li Xiang also gave it a thumbs up and felt equally excited.

Not only was this his first time commanding a Pokémon into battle, but the sword's attacking style was very similar to sword control.

Which Chinese man can resist the temptation of sword-wielding? The feeling of killing enemies with a flying sword is so wonderful, it's as comfortable as wearing refrigerated underwear in summer!
The remaining two men in black robes were breathing heavily with lingering fear. They looked at the two people lying on the ground with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

In just one encounter, two people on their side died. These two people didn't even fight against the Warcraft, but were directly beheaded by the opponent. How could they accept this!

It would be fine if they were facing a strong enemy, but the problem is that their opponent is a civilian who has never come into contact with Warcraft!

No! That's not right! The opponent is definitely not a civilian. How can a civilian decisively implement the decapitation tactic and kill two people without changing his expression!
Expert! The other party must be an expert who hides his strength!
The two men in black robes cursed Li Xiang in their hearts for being despicable and shameless. This guy pretended to be a civilian trial-taker who knew nothing, and at the same time used words to divert their attention and create opportunities for Du Jianshao's surprise attack.

Damn it! This guy is even more sinister than their Shadow Church!

The two men in black robes simultaneously raised their alertness and prepared for a tough battle.

They never thought of running away, on the one hand because they felt that they had the advantage in a two-on-one situation, and on the other hand because they did not dare to expose their backs to the enemy.

Li Xiang shook his head regretfully. "Can't you just flee in panic like in the rubbish novels and let me kill you one by one?"

"Sure enough, most of the plots in novels are lies. Fortunately, the sword-wielding skills in the novels are real!"

"Go ahead, Dujianscabbard, use Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin!"

Dujianscabbard: "???" (End of this chapter)
