As Ling Xuan completed the Lake of Reflections, he couldn’t help but be surprised by the sight he saw. There was just a single cabin with The Masked Man standing in front of the door watching as Ling Xuan came closer to the cabin. “Now this is interesting.” The Masked Man spoke with interest apparent in his voice. “You’re the first person to complete the trial this year so congratulations !” The Masked Man congratulated Ling Xuan. “Thank you Senior !” Ling Xuan respectfully bowed. “Ah ! No need to refer to me as a senior, I’m not that old, you refer to me as Brother Weiyu.” The Masked Man waved his hand signalling Ling Xuan to stand. “I understand Brother Weiyu !” Ling Xuan was happy as getting to call someone brother was the first sign of developing a friendship. ‘If I can obtain Brother Weiyu’s friendship then my backing will get stronger !’ Ling Xuan decided to thus build an amicable relationship with The Masked Man. “Anyways come on inside the cabin mate. We have a long time before The 4th Test concludes.” The Masked Man gestured to Ling Xuan to follow him. CREAK The door to the cabin opened with a creak and inside Ling Xuan saw that there was no type of chair or table, just a teapot and few windows. “Come sit.” The Masked Man called out to Ling Xuan to sit on the floor, which he agreed to “Do you want some tea?” “Ah yes I’ll like some, thank you.” Ling Xuan quickly agreed. “Alright here it is.” The Masked Man quickly gave a cup of tea to Ling Xuan immediately the moment he agreed. “That was fast !” Ling Xuan was surprised by Weiyu’s speed. “Hahaha impressed right? It’s a technique I was taught from a young age, how to do things fast.” Weiyu spoke with pride apparent in the tone. “Ah I see.” Ling Xuan spoke as he took a sip of the tea. Instantly he felt his body getting more refreshed and Qi starting to circulate inside his body. “This tea is magnificent !” Ling Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim. “The tea you're drinking is made from a very rare and special herb that grows only near Mythical Carcasses.” Weiyu explained as he removed his mask to drink his cup of tea as well. His hair flowed down his shoulders, and his eyes sparkled a brilliant blue. As Ling Xuan looked at Weiyu’s appearance, he couldn’t help but remember a certain someone once again. “Wait a second he looks extremely familiar to Shang Zhang !” Ling Xuan exclaimed inwardly. First it was their way of speech and now appearance, could it be that the person in front of him is actually Shang Zhang ! “No, the possibility of Weiyu being Shang Zhang is slim, if it had been him he would’ve greeted me as his junior brother considering his personality.” Ling Xuan refused the thought yet he had only met Shang Zhang for a short while so he couldn’t be sure whether his assumption was correct or not, “Hmm, as we are waiting, why don’t you ask me some questions regarding Cultivation ? I’m quite an experienced person, you know.” Weiyu gave the opportunity of a lifetime. “Of course Brother Weiyu ! But are there any rules that I’m supposed to follow while asking ?” Ling Xuan asked while suppressing his happiness, information was something he craved dearly as only with sufficient information could he use the Computer with better efficiency. ‘Hmm rules you say.” Weiyu scratched his chin and thought for a moment. “Yes how about this, you can only ask me questions related to Cultivation and nothing else and the moment someone else reaches the cabin you cannot ask me any more questions . I think that these rules should be understandable and good, right ?” Weiyu came up with a few rules and asked to which Ling Xuan nodded. “Well now that all the rules have been set, it's your time to ask!” Weiyu snapped his finger. Ling Xuan quickly asked his first question. “Brother Weiyu firstly I would like to ask about the cultivation realms themselves, why are all the names just states of proficiency?” Ling Xuan asked an uncommon question to see how much in detail this senior brother would explain
