——(POV Li Huang)——
The moment that we both stepped into the formation and the points were deducted from us, we instantly got teleported to the test location.
The test location was nothing special. It looked like an underground room, just that the room was very large and it was dimly lit, just enough that we could see the surroundings. The biggest light source was in the center of the room where two cushions were placed at a small distance from each other.
Like the tests that I have known about so far, there was another stone pillar there that would tell us what to do.
"It seems that we have to go there…" I told Anjing.
"I don't see any other options here…" She answered as she started walking to the center of the room. I followed after her.
Standing in front of the stone pillar I start reading it.
_____________
~~Sit here to know your partner better. ~~
_____________
I couldn't help but smirk at that.
'What is this? A show or something?' I thought. Whoever write on this pillar tried their best to sound mysterious.
"Let's sit here as I don't want to waste 75,000 points for nothing…" I told Hu Anjing.
"Yes, who knows what I can learn here, maybe I can blackmail you with it…" She said with a devilish smirk.
I just rolled my eyes at her.
Sitting down on the cushions, we immediately felt some sort of energy invading our bodies, we wanted to resist it and stand up but the moment we sat down, it was already too late to do anything.
The feeling was a little like what I experienced in the [Soul and body mirror], I felt like that I couldn't hide anything from whatever that is watching me as if I was living in a glasshouse.
Now that I looked around, I saw that a spiritual form of Hu Anjing is also here. If I'm not wrong this is supposed to be her soul form.
"Well, hello there…" I said as Hu Anjing was looking around her with confusion.
She didn't expect me so her first reaction was to try and kick whoever was behind her. Luckily for me, she stopped inches away from my face.
'I don't know if I can feel pain in this form or not but that would have hurt anyway…' I just gave her a small smile as I looked into her eyes.
"You scared me!" She pointed at me after she calmed down.
"And you almost kicked me in the face so…" I shrugged my shoulders.
"That was the natural defensive reaction of my body!" Anjing continued looking for an apology from me.
"That was because you couldn't figure out that it was my voice…" I argued back, if only she was focused more, she would be able to easily know that I was talking to her. I wasn't going to give her what she wanted.
She looked at me with narrowed eyes for a few seconds and sighed.
"Okay, it was my fault…" she relented in the end.
"It's okay." I didn't mind really, I just wanted to banter with her a little.
"Now tell me honestly, why did you choose this test?" I asked her as I didn't know why she did so and I was really interested in it.
"Because I thought it would be fun?"She tried to change the topic by looking at other directions but I didn't let her until she finally decided to come clean.
"Okay, I was going to use this chance to get closer with you." She said and I was baffled.
Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with her getting closer to me as I like her, but was there a reason to do it the hard way?
"But why like this? Wouldn't it be easier to do it in a normal situation?" I asked her what I had on my mind.
She clicked her tongue.
"*tsk* I thought this would be easier to explain to master if I blamed the trial for it." She said with a scowl on her face.
I was stunned for a few seconds.
"HAHAHA, that is genius and stupid at the same time." I couldn't stop my laughter. She was going to use this trial to get physical with me and tell Yuan Jia that we were forced by the trial so that she couldn't blame her.
'Well, as Yuan Jia is a bit of a bro-con, this is really a good plan.' I thought.
She punched me in the head. Luckily it seems that physical attacks don't have any effects when you are in your soul form so I didn't feel pain.
"Okay, that aside, what should we do now?" laughing a little, I said as nothing happened so far in the test. I asked, but wasn't really expecting an answer.
Before Hu Anjing could say anything, an unknown female voice spoke.
"Now you can go on with the test…" She said.
To my utter horror, it looked like Hu Anjing heard it too.
Why am I horrified? Because I don't know if she would squash us just for the sake of it or not…
'Please be voice-activated, please be voice-activated…' I was saying under my breath like a mantra.
Looking around I was vigilant but that was it, I didn't have access to any sort of item in my soul form and don't know how I should act now. I haven't even heard about something that can make you materialize in your soul form and in this trial, I came across two of them already.
"I left this recording here to explain what you should do…" the female voice continued.
This should have made me feel more at ease but I didn't drop my guard just yet. Why? Because the most suspicious person is the one who says something like 'Oh! I'm not a bad person'.
"In this test, you will know more about the person that you have entered with." The voice said seemingly unaware of my worries.
"There is always something that we are hiding. Be it something that is immoral, shameful, or dark, we are hiding it for a reason." The female voice continued and me and Anjing were all ears, I was checking for sudden movements too.
"Now imagine the other person knowing about it. Would it change how they view you or not?" You could hear in her voice that she was grinning.
"Well, you will soon find out…" the voice said and now I was almost sure that this was recorded before. The only thing I was worried about was the thing that I was hiding, I didn't know what I was hiding the most.
Looking at Hu Anjing I saw that she was stunned by this and she didn't seem confident at all. She seemed worried that I would look at her differently.
"Don't worry—" was all I could say before my vision got dark and the environment changed.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
