Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 963: 50 Spots

Xu Feng was rather silent after being teased repeatedly by Carmen on the spot.

Never once did he expect CarnageBound to be so decisive in ordering Reckonizer to throw the match.

Whether it was the value of the Resonance Shard or the Malefic Order Guildʼs reputation, by logic, CarnageBound should have been ready to become an enemy of Kelso.

He was quite confused, but his confusion was soon cleared up thanks to some of the members in the Floral Branch.

”A Resonance Shard to return an eliminated player, huh. Do any of you have it?”

”I didnʼt get lucky. If I had it, then I would have told Branch Leader Floral Witch about it and received a ton of merit.”

”Damn it. This resurrection item is really scarce. I reckon only a handful of people could take advantage of this and boost their groupʼs number.”

ʼResurrection item?ʼ Upon hearing them from afar, Xu Feng suddenly realized why his deduction was incorrect. He had overestimated Super Guildʼs brain cells.

Simply put, these Super Guilds people lacked some very critical information.

The information they know so far, based on the system, was that the item could help an eliminated player to become a trial contender again.

Other than that, there didnʼt seem to be any hint or indication that the item could be used elsewhere.

This was the reason why Xu Feng failed to realize that CarnageBound was willing to have Reckonizer throw the match and proceed to use their own Resonance Shard to give Reckonizer a resurrection chance to claim the empty spots.

So long as Reckonizer helped Kelso vent his rage and return from another angle, Kelso wouldnʼt be reckless enough to challenge him again. Moreover, the system wouldnʼt even allow Kelso to challenge Reckonizer again.

The second round was simple. It was about the eliminated player contending against those with eligibility to remain as a trial contender.

If a player was already eligible and tried to challenge another eligible player, then that would be beyond ridiculous. The system wouldnʼt even allow such foolishness to occur.

Hence, CarnageBoundʼs intention was to bring Reckonizer back and keep Kelso in check. It was a subtle warning that youʼve vented enough, so just pursue the matter another day.

Sure enough, once Kelso took the spot, CarnageBound ultimately traded a Resonance Shard secretly to Reckonizer, who immediately used it to claim one of the ten empty spots.

When the external force players saw how quickly Reckonizer returned, they were stunned and baffled.

You could do that?

Damn, Kelso really caused two precious Resonance Shards to be wasted like that.

Those who remained eliminated were clearly livid when they saw this scene occurring.

They didnʼt have any Resonance Shards and were willing to pay anything to get them to regain their eligibility to take the trial.

Unfortunately, only a few lucky eliminated external force players could regain their eligibility. Most of the others had the Super Guild directly trade the shard to them to return.

In the blink of an eye, all 50 spots were officially full, but there were still many Resonance Shards in the playersʼ hands. It was just that they all kept a tight lid on their mouth.

Nevertheless, the system didnʼt intend to stall much longer and directly put a timer countdown. The timer countdown was for 5 minutes, and it appeared when there hadnʼt been any challenges lately.

This was to allow those who were still hesitant during those 5 minutes to consider whether or not attempt to challenge the trial contender.

As the time ticked down, there werenʼt any surprises. Those who had returned as trial contenders were nearly cemented. And even if there was still some dissatisfaction, they couldnʼt do much when they didnʼt manage to find any Resonance Shard.

While the crowd waited for the system prompt, Carmen suddenly poked Xu Fengʼs arm slightly.

He turned to her and raised an eyebrow. ”Whatʼs the matter?”

”Nothing, I just want to ask if you know what the third round might be?”

”I donʼt know.”

Instantly, his mood turned slightly sour when he realized Carmen had yet to let go of the teasing phase despite so much time having gone by.

”Oh, come on. Why so sour? I thought we were quite close.” She began to act coy and wrap her hands around his arm. ”I wonʼt tease you hard. Just a tiny little bit, and you donʼt want me to be clueless either, right?”

Faced with her behavior, Xu Feng ultimately sighed and explained, ”I really donʼt know anything.”

He only had a basic gist of understanding regarding the Hall of Resonance Trial. Okay, maybe a little bit more than the average Joe.

However, he truly had no clue of what the trial would be. They were all randomized, and nobody was able to successfully prepare for it.

After all, once the trial appeared, it would never appear again.

This meant that the battle royale stage, the revival stage—none of them would be repeated again in the Hall of Resonance Trial.

”Hmm, I suppose so then,” Carmen said.

ʼSupposed so then? What does that mean?ʼ Xu Feng wanted to cry aloud. It appeared that his repeated failures seemed to have caused his reputation to dwindle from her perspective.

But who could he blame?

There were way too many things in the Divine World. It was just impossible for him to remember every tiny little detail, unless he participated in them physically, or the event was a major scale one.

Just when Xu Feng was on the verge of crying from being bullied so miserably by Carmen, he was saved by the system. Or more specifically, the system prompt that indicated what the next trial event would be.

System Notification: To all worthy trial contenders, the next round will test your willpower and determination to overcome the difficulty. Multiple monsters would be scattered across the new field, and your task is to find the exit. Whether you wish to avoid the monsters or confront them to reach your goal, that is your decision. The time limit will be 1 hour, and a word of advice, monsters in the field have a high possibility of dropping Resonance Shard.
