Swear? The Fifth Princess's request made it difficult for Marquis Li.

"With what I am, there's no need to swear!"

"Use it, you had to leave me behind just now, you're a questionable person, I'm not sure about your character, swear it!"

"You girl, why do you always like to force things!"

"Say it or not, I'll say it if you don't."

"Told you, no more harsh words to me, why can't you always remember, it's not just swearing, it's a small thing, I'll say it to you."

Marquis Li s heart is cursing, little dead girl, how dare you repeatedly threaten Laozi, you wait, sooner or later to pack you.

However, his pain point had been pinpointed by others, and he had to bow down even if he was ten thousand times more reluctant.

There was nothing for it but to straighten up and make a solemn vow.

The Fifth Princess looked at him in triumph, her face blossoming with joy.

Master Kei secretly sighed, this pair of enemies are still entangled in the end, I'm afraid that this world can not stop!

After leaving the gambling arena, the outside world was just as the Fifth Princess had said.

The sky was filled with yellow sand, as far as the eye could see, and the area was desolate.

Looking back, the so-called stakes arena is a mist, kind of like what a nebula looks like.

Reimu pointed at the gambling arena and asked, "The singularity to leave this place is right there, right?"

The Fifth Princess smiled and asked, "How did you know?"

"It's simple, the fact that we appeared directly in the gambling arena after entering the trial ground proves the fact that the exit is there."

The Fifth Princess shook her head and said, "It's not there, you guessed wrong."

"Lies!"

"I told you, I never lied to you, the exit really isn't there."

"Then why are we there?"

"Because we can be projected anywhere when we enter the trial site, I tried to save myself the trouble and set the landing point there."

Surprisingly, that's what happened.

Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and the fifth princess said to him, ''Don't think about it, come with me!

Let's make sure we can make it through fifty years in one piece, and I'll lead you to the exit as the next open day approaches."

There's no way around it.

Even if one hated her very much, one could only choose to obey her.

In this harsh environment, Li Mu and the others had no idea where to go, and instead of being stuck in the desert, they should obediently follow her.

The group hit the road, with Master Kyu leading the way, and the others following his lead as they gradually walked deeper into the desert.

After walking for a while, Li Mu couldn't help but ask, "Does the old monk know the way?"

The Fifth Princess walked in front of him and turned around, "Don't underestimate Master Kei, he's the living map of the Sky Dragon Clan, there's no road he doesn't recognize."

Still uneasy, Reimu asked, "Has he been here before?"

"Of course he's been here, and more than once, don't worry, he certainly won't go the wrong way, we'll just follow him."

"Where is he taking us now?"

"Go find the secret place, only if we find it will we have a chance to get air, water and food, otherwise we will all die in the desert."

Master Kei took in their conversation.

The old monk didn't turn around and continued to walk forward while echoing, ''What the Fifth Princess said is very true, we must find the secret realm in order to survive for a long time.

Before that, I'll take you guys to a marketplace to replenish some supplies before we move to find the secret realm."

Surprisingly, there was still a workshop market, Li Mu and the others' eyes lit up.

Then he was greatly puzzled, since there was a workshop, what secret realm was there to find, wasn't it too superfluous?

Not waiting for them to raise questions, the Fifth Princess explained, "The so-called workshop markets are all temporary trading places that gather and disperse from time to time.

There, we can trade some of life's necessities, but we can't depend on it entirely for our hopes of survival, so I'll put it this way, so you should understand!"

Understand that the so-called workshop is like a black market, it only provides a temporary trading place and is not suitable for long-term residence.

In order to live a nourishing life, you must also find a suitable place to settle down, such as a secret place.

Li Mu asked, "Fifth Princess, isn't it true that as long as we find the so-called secret realm, we will be safe for fifty years?"

"Not necessarily, not all secret realms can provide the resources we want, and the ones that do, many people want to possess.

Therefore, each secret realm suitable for survival has traditionally been the most snatched resource in the trial grounds, and there have been endless fights over it."

Li Mu pondered, then asked, "For example, if we find a suitable secret realm, how can we possess it?"

"That depends on whether it's already in possession?"

"What do you mean?"

"Two meanings, if no one possesses it, we can just find the entrance and go in generously, if it's already possessed, we can only rob it with our hands!"

"Can't everyone share?"

"There's no problem with a few people sharing, certainly not with a lot of people.

After all, the Secret Realm was only a small world, with limited resources and an ecological balance that could easily be disrupted, and could not accommodate too many people.

Moreover, human nature is most selfish, and often, before the number of people is full, the existing residents may not be willing to accept those who come after them.

After all, sharing is not as good as exclusivity, and exclusive access to resources is certainly the safest.

Therefore, once a secret realm is occupied, it is often a family or a race of people who share possession of it, and they will never agree to share the secret realm with outsiders."

Got it, to put it bluntly, it's a matter of saturation, and each secret world has a saturation level that can accommodate different numbers of people.

Theoretically, when the number of people is not full, everyone can live with each other and continue to accept asylum seekers.

Once the number of people reaches saturation, those who come later can only try to come in and fight for a place for themselves by driving out the former inhabitants.

The reasoning can be interpreted that way, but it's a stretch to interpret it that way when human nature is taken into account.

In order to secure their own interests, individuals tend to group together, and thus, the emergence of races or clans that unite to occupy a secret realm.

Once they were won over by these people, they would not allow outsiders to enter this space again, regardless of the saturation level of the secret realm.

No one should laugh at anyone on this issue, we're all about the same half a catty.

In the end, it still needs strength, as long as the strength is strong, no matter if you have someone to occupy or no one to occupy, I see it, it is mine.

Who does not serve then hands to rob whoever, what first come first served, what humility and courtesy, in here are not work.

Lin Wan looked at her husband with great concern and let out a secret sigh.

Clearly, this is a world of chaos, with no rules or guidelines.

It's really hard to say if the husband will be a fish out of water in this environment.

Shen Xingyue spoke up and asked, "Fifth Princess, is there a rank restriction on the trial staff, and who are they?"

"There is a rank restriction, and the highest rank restriction for the trialists is a third level divine warrior, and they are all sons and daughters of the Ancient God Clan."

"Ancient Gods?"

"Well, there are six large races and as many small races as there are people, most of them reside in the upper twelve realms and are gods in the true sense of the word."

Li Mu was very interested and hurriedly asked, "Is your Sky Dragon Race included in the Six Great Races?"

"Of course I have!

The Heavenly Dragon Race, Heavenly Phoenix Race, Heavenly Mythical Race, Heavenly Sparrow Race, Heavenly Bear Race, and Heavenly Wolf Race, a total of six great races, and we occupy one seat."

The fifth princess raised her head, looking proud.

Li Mu pursued, "What do you mean by the Upper Twelve Realms?"

"Do you know the thirty-three realms?"

Li Mu was just about to say that he knew, when Lin Wan coughed gently from the side.

Marquis Li's expression immediately changed to one of confusion, shaking his head vigorously.

The Fifth Princess laughed, "It's normal that you don't know, many people don't know about this matter, even many of the Ancient God Clansmen don't know."

"Can you elaborate?"

"Yes, there are thirty-three realms in the Great World.

The Ancient God Race occupies twelve realms, the New God Race occupies fifteen realms, the New Demon Race occupies three realms, and the Human Race, Demon Race, and Ghost Race each occupy one realm."

"How come there's no Ancient Demon Race?"

"There used to be, but now it's turned into a trial site."

Li Mu looked at her in surprise, the fifth princess nodded and said, "You don t have to doubt, what I said is the truth, the ancient demons originally occupied a realm, and then ..."

The old monk in front of him coughed hard.

The Fifth Princess immediately shut her mouth, refusing to reveal any more information.

"What you said is wrong." Li Mu retorted, "According to you, it should be the thirty-fourth realm, how could it be the thirty-third realm."

"That's because..."

"Fifth Princess, be careful with your words!" The old monk couldn't help himself and directly spoke out to remind her.

The Fifth Princess waved her hand and said to Li Mu, "Alright, alright, don't ask any more questions, you guys are the ones who caused the trouble anyway, you..."

"Fifth Princess!" The old monk bellowed, so anxious that he was moving to anger.

The fifth princess spat out her tongue and kept her mouth tightly shut.

The Li Mu family looked at each other and nodded silently.

The little dead girl has material, and her mouth is not too strict, in the future, you can specialize in her, must pry open her teeth.

Lin Wan passed a look towards He Xiaoyu, who deliberately changed the subject.

"Fifth Princess, why did you bet against that man?"

"Are you talking about Mubai?"

"Yes!"

"He's the third son of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's patriarch, and he's been pestering me, and last time at the Ancient God Clan meeting, he made an appointment to fight with me.

If he wins, I will either marry him or give him a secret place, and if I win, he will stop pestering me.

You know the rest!"

"Is that secret place occupied?"

"No, it's a pristine land to be developed, rich in resources and suitable for settling down, I was going to go there to explore, but it turned out..."

The crowd knew what she was trying to say, and none of them had the heart to pick up the conversation.

Only Marquis Li had a big face and didn't care, "It's fine, if the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come, I can help you grab a new secret realm."

"It's not going to be that easy, let's go to the marketplace and take a look around, but hopefully we'll meet our chance there."

"What chance could there be there?"

"It's impossible to say, any opportunity can arise.

Normally, there would be many bounty quests in the marketplace, most of which were related to the secret realm.

We'll have a better chance of success if we go there and look for opportunities."
