[Keltic_Spirit: I do wonder what is special about the moon in this world. The moon shines in the radiance of the sun, yet many people believe that the moon's rays are distinctly different and are portrayed as such.]

…

"Haa… Ha…" Serena panted heavily. She had been climbing this mountain for more than six hours nonstop without using her essence to boost her physical ability.

Compared to others, this test was much harsher for her.

"We have to keep going!"

"Do you need help?"

Lancelot and Jayden were worried about her, considering she had been trying to match their speed.

Serena shook her head. "There's no need. You guys should continue. No need to wait for me. I will climb this mountain no matter what it takes."

This might be the test that Theo wanted them to solve in order to get stronger. She didn't understand much, but she would definitely do whatever she could to pass the test from Theo.

Lancelot and Jayden frowned. On the one hand, they understood the difference in their physical abilities. On the other hand, Serena was glaring at them as if she were implying that she didn't need their pity.

Still, after the previous test, where kindness was what Theo was searching for, they couldn't really abandon her right away.

Meanwhile, Serena stated, "You guys shouldn't think that helping me will make you pass the test, right? This test is for us to climb the mountain. That's all. Just look at our teacher, he has gone with Sir Dantalian without even using their spiritual energy. If you understand that, you should go now!"

Lancelot and Jayden hesitated, but because Serena kept glaring at them, they had no other choice but to go. Of course, they would keep checking her condition from time to time.

…

Meanwhile, Theo had actually crossed a fourth of the distance in just several hours. And it wasn't like he was walking that fast either.

While climbing, Theo gazed at the entire town from above. "It is a good city."

"Indeed. It seems that Teacher Theo understands the trial of the Divine Spirit." Dantalian smiled wryly. "And to think that you would see through it from the very beginning."

Unlike the two students, Theo was actually getting stronger instead of wasting his stamina when climbing the mountain.

It created such a contradictory result, especially with the fact that the night had yet to come.

Theo smiled while looking at the comment. He thought it would probably be fine if he told a bit of the truth for the sake of the readers. His eyes gazed deep into Dantalian's soul as he said, "Yeah. I think much better than you do."

"Hoho…" That answer piqued Dantalian's interest. As the patriarch of the Moon Clan, he believed he was more knowledgeable than all the spirits in the world regarding this mountain, but Theo claimed that he actually knew the divine spirit more than him? How could he not be curious? "So, what do you think about this mountain, Teacher Theo?"

"I think you should tell me what you know about it first." Theo shook his head.

Dantalian's eyebrows twitched. He thought Theo wanted to steal his words and changed it with his own words to bluff his way out.

However, he wouldn't mind the challenge. "The mountain is a beacon… the beacon that absorbs the ray of energy coming from outer space. Only those who understand it and bask in it will receive its true blessing. And that's why we have received the grace of the moon."

"If that's what you think, how do you explain the difference in talents between others? Why do you think your clan is more talented? Is it truly from your bloodline? If that's truly the case, why would outsiders also have extraordinary talents?" Theo casually asked.

"That's obvious. Our bloodline is different because we have been cultivating this power since seven hundred years ago. There are always peerless talents that appear all around the world. And it's just a natural law to keep everything in check." Dantalian frowned. He didn't like Theo's question since it questioned his family's dignity. "What do you think about this mountain, Teacher Theo? How about telling me your answer instead of going the roundabout way?"

"I'll answer this question if you answer another question of mine."

"Fine."

"In your family's history, do you have someone who is so talented that their power has reached to a level that no one can believe? It doesn't need to be your family. Any other clans who are occupying the twelve landmarks or even the clans who were gone in the present era…"

"!!!" Dantalian's body shook. It seemed that Theo was aiming for something. Although a bit hesitant, Dantalian still answered, "There were three people in the past. The last one was a thousand years ago. Those three people became a spirit king. Their power was immeasurable. It was said that when they became a spirit king, the divine landmarks trembled in awe as if recognizing their successor."

Theo raised his head as if gazing into the moon. "Let me give you a story. When the world was created, a big asteroid hit the planet, causing a massive impact that actually shattered the planet into twelve. Meanwhile, this asteroid ended up replacing the planet itself.

"The twelve moons are now locked into this planet, unable to move away anymore. They said, 'People of the world, we are the true planet. While we have been divided into twelves, come and take our test so that you can inherit the true strength of the world.'

"The people don't know what they are trying to say. They build a telescope, they climb the highest peak, they study and create multiple theories, and they still understand nothing.

"Three people gazed at the moons, not really understanding what the moons were trying to say, but they knew that they were walking in a different path. They are not meant to be understood. The moons simply want to be recognized as the true planet. And that's why the moons bestow them the power of the true planet."

Dantalian frowned. "What are you saying? You are simply talking nonsense."

Theo remained silent for a moment before laughing. "Hahaha. I am… talking nonsense?"

Dantalian was baffled. It felt like Theo was taking advantage of their politeness to actually mock them.

But that was when Theo suddenly stomped his right foot and caused the entire mountain to shake violently, the same trembling like what he described before.

Theo simply asked with a smile, "Am I?"
