The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

She was also told about the final test where the soul of an ancient true god realm expert would judge her. She also got to know her competitor for this stage who was Li Shi. Yes, Rein would not be her competitor as Huanlong was unwilling to make him his successor. As for Rein he also had no wish or need to become a successor, so he easily accepted this proposal.

The reason why Huanlong was unwilling to give Rein his legacy was because Rein was already extremely strong. If he gave him his legacy it would just become an insignificant thing that might only give Rein one or two extra ideas but nothing more than that.

This was something that Huanlong did not want. He wanted his legacy to become the cornerstone for another True God realm powerhouse so he did not want to give this to anyone who might not follow it. That was the reason why he did not want to give this to someone like Rein.

With the same thinking his hope for the prince was very little. This boy was not as exceptionally talented as the lady who had just reached this stage not his willpower was as good as the other boy who was still taking on the challenge. Most importantly this prince was already practicing a technique given by another true god, most probably a true god from the royal family.

So his techniques might just gather dust if given to the person. But still he was not going to immediately reject him as there was still a chance that he might not have a very high standing in the royal family and only then his technique would see some value.

The other boy was also unsuitable for being his successor as this boy was also practicing a legacy of another true god. His own legacy was a bit superior to this boy\'s legacy but the technique he was practicing and the skill he had were very compatible. So his slightly superior technique was still not the best option for this boy.

Now he only had two options left. Ganyu and Lu Shi. Ganyu was slightly more exceptional than Lu Shi in terms of pure talent but talent was not the thing that mattered. Lu Shi\'s nature and personality was very similar to the ideal personality to practice his legacy. Most importantly, Lu Shi was able to recognise him and was even knowledgeable enough to know about many of his exploits.

This impressed the soul fragment of the ancient expert so he was a little bit biased toward Lu Shi. But the real judging process would only start after all the participants had reached this stage.

...

The prince and the other boy complete their trials almost at the same time. After entering the last stage they were also given the same details as what Lu Shi and Ganyu were told. Both of them showed their willingness to accept the legacy and promised to make it their own legacy in the future.

This special promise that Huanlong made these two to do was not perfect. Any powerful true god would easily be able to get rid of the binding power of this promise. There were also special items that were also capable of doing the same thing. So Huanlong was going to be very serious while choosing his successor.

...

After all four of the participants were ready for the final trial, Huanlong revealed the challenge that they were going to face here. It was called a dream realm challenge. Here all four of them would be out to sleep and their consciousness would be transported to the dream realm. They would forget all about their current identity and had to live a completely new life.

This way everyone would be forced to show their true personality. Huanlong did not just want to give his legacy to the most talented person, his successor should also have a good and noble personality that would suit the cultivation technique he had created. That was the reason why he had chosen this as the final trial.

Very soon all four of them fell asleep and started their new life in their dreams.

...

Both Rein and Huanlong kept an eye on the progression of the four people. They would be born in situations that would suit their personality and inner desire. So Lu Shi was born in a family of loving parents but just like in real life, they were also not able to live for long.

This scene showed that even though Lu Shi had to face many many trials in her life because of how early her parents left her, even if she got a chance to restart her life, she would not want different parents. Her love for her family was just this strong.

Ganyu was born in a well-to-do merchant family and she decided to become a scholar in this life of hers. She was truly a kind person and always helped anyone who needed it. From this it was clear that Ganyu\'s kindness was not a persona that she had created but it was her true nature.

As for the prince, he was born in a family of nobles. In the early years of his life, he became interested in the art of singing and dedicated his whole life to it. For this dream of his, he was capable of getting away from even his family if needed.

From this it was clear that this prince had a very determined personality and when he decided on something, he was not going to stop until reaching the top. In that pursuit there was nothing he was unwilling to sacrifice.

This could be a good personality or a bad one depending on the situation. There was no fault in this personality of his and mang might even prefer it but for Huanlong, this was not the personality that he wanted for his successor. So he finalized his decision to reject the prince.

As for the last person, he turned out to be a commoner at heart and also a very cunning and cautious person. This boy was very intelligent in taking advantage of situations to find the best chance for himself. He was also extremely cautious and never revealed his full capabilities to anyone easily. But at the same time he was also very greedy.

This could be seen as a bad trait, but for cultivators being a little bit greedy was not a big deal.

So now there were three options for Huanlong to choose from.
