Kapitel 1452: Familiar

Ryu snapped his eyes open a long while later. He had lost himself in cultivation and he didn't seem to care very much for the next round. In reality, though, he was only being smart. 

Once the second round was over, the strength boost that the Diamond Protector Spirit had given him, not to mention the other three sets of 999 Protector Spirits of various grades that he had gathered, would all be gone. In that situation, his ability to climb cultivation ranks to challenge them would be limited and he would need to be far more cautious. It could be said that there was a potential chance this might be the last one he would receive for a while, depending on how the next round would go. 

As expected, all around Ryu, there was a familiar treasure room. Though, he used the term "familiar", loosely. That was because while this treasure room looked almost identical to the one he had seen after the first round, the rewards were even more tantalizing.
