Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Beautiful Women Often Bring Trouble
"Now, let us welcome the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda!"
As elder Li Rou spoke, a solemn and awe-inspiring expression appeared on her face.
As for the Outer Court Disciples present, every single one of them was becoming extremely excited.
The Sky Star Treasure Pagoda, they were finally about to see its true form... At that moment, elder Li Rou’s hands continuously waved, and strange Seals flew directly out of her hands, eventually condensing into a Rune.
"We respectfully invite the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda!"
Elder Li Rou spoke again.
With a rumbling sound... at the same time, where elder Li Rou formed the Rune, space erupted with a huge chanting sound, and immediately after that chanting, a medium-sized spatial grid appeared.
Within this spatial grid, a golden mini-pagoda slightly larger than a fist quietly stood.
However, the instant the spatial grid opened, a formidable aura burst forth from it... soon after, the golden mini-pagoda flew out of the spatial grid and finally landed in an open space in front.
At that moment, there was only one thought in everyone’s mind: "The Sky Star Treasure Pagoda has once again appeared in this world."
"The Sky Star Treasure Pagoda, is this the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda?"
After the appearance of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda, everyone’s eyes were drawn toward it.
"This Sky Star Treasure Pagoda looks quite ordinary!"
Everyone tried to discern what was unusual about the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda?
However, after looking for a long while, they still couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary.
With a loud rumble!
The next moment, the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda suddenly began to grow rapidly.
In just a short moment, the pagoda, originally only a bit larger than a fist, transformed into a formidable tower forty-nine zhang high.
"Wow!"
Seeing this, some people couldn’t help but exclaim out loud.
This also stirred up a commotion throughout the entire Sky Star Plaza.
After a long while, Sky Star Plaza finally calmed down.
Elder Li Rou then spoke again: "Next, the sixteen of you, in order, will enter the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda. Let me explain: once you have entered, I encourage you to use all your strength to challenge the tower. Those who can pass through the first layer are One-Star geniuses, those through the second layer are Two-star geniuses, and so forth. Those who can pass through the Seventh Layer are Sky Star geniuses!"
One-Star to Sky Star Genius, this is the new classification of geniuses by the Sky Star Sect.
Elder Li Rou continued: "Of course, as long as you have become a disciple of our Sky Star Sect, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, everyone should be able to pass through the first layer and become a One-Star genius!"
"Let me put it this way, within our Sky Star Sect, those who can pass through the first layer are considered ordinary geniuses, those through the second layer are considered top-grade geniuses, and those through the third layer are considered Unparalleled Geniuses. As for those beyond the fourth layer..."
Here, elder Li Rou’s eyes swept across everyone and she shook her head, continuing: "It’s not that I look down on you, but I feel that among you, there might be no one who can pass through the fourth layer!"
Hearing elder Li Rou speak this way, quite a few people felt challenged, secretly deciding that they must pass through the fourth layer and make elder Li Rou take notice.
"Alright, starting with you, enter the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda one by one!"
Elder Li Rou pointed to the first examining disciple and said.
"Starting with me?" the examining disciple asked somewhat surprised.
Elder Li Rou indifferently said: "If you’re unwilling, you can opt out of the examination!"
"No, I’m willing!"
The disciple did not dare to delay, and swiftly entered into the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda through the entrance... Everyone watched the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda.
Since everyone was curious about what Divine Skills the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda had, all were wondering, what reaction would the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda have after this examining disciple entered?
In an instant, the first layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda lit up!
This also meant that the examining disciple had entered the first layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda.
As time passed, second by second, within the span of an hour, the first floor of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda remained brightly lit.
This meant that the examining disciple from before had been on the first floor of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda the entire half-hour.
"What exactly happened to that guy on the first floor of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda?"
Many couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Finally, after half an hour passed, the light on the first floor suddenly went out, and then, the second floor lit up.
"He has passed the first floor’s trial and can now be considered a One-Star genius," Elder Li Rou stated indifferently.
Everyone remained silent, all eyes were on the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda.
Swoosh... a moment later, the door to the second floor of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda opened, and the recently seen examining disciple flew out from the second floor.
He failed the second floor trial!
That means he is merely a One-Star genius.
After landing on the high platform, the disciple appeared somewhat frustrated and said helplessly, "I was so close to succeeding. It’s a pity I failed in the end!"
Immediately, someone concernedly asked, "What exactly is going on inside the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda?"
They wanted to understand the situation inside for better preparation for their own upcoming trials.
But the examining disciple merely shook his head and didn’t elaborate further... "Alright, continue!" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Elder Li Rou spoke again.
Subsequently, one after another, the examining disciples entered the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda... After the final test in the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda, some were One-Star geniuses, some were Two-Star geniuses, but even after testing the thirteenth disciple, no Three-Star genius had emerged.
Now, the only ones who had not been tested were Lin Fan, Liu Junli, and Cheng Lin.
Lin Fan stood at the back, meaning he would be the last to be tested.
Next up for testing was Cheng Lin.
"Alright, let’s continue!"
Elder Li Rou spoke again.
Cheng Lin looked over at Lin Fan, his eyes conveying a provocative and slightly hateful expression.
"Hmm?"
Lin Fan sensed the hostility from Cheng Lin and his brow slightly furrowed as he thought, "I have neither grievances nor grudges against this Cheng Lin, so why is he looking at me like this?"
Lin Fan was somewhat puzzled.
"Hehe!"
Cheng Lin then let out a sinister laugh towards Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, right? How about we make a bet?"
Lin Fan responded indifferently, "Not interested!"
"Hmm?"
Cheng Lin’s eyebrows furrowed, asking, "Are you scared?"
Lin Fan simply smiled casually and said no more.
Lin Fan completely disregarded Cheng Lin’s provocation.
"Ha ha!"
Cheng Lin burst into laughter and loudly said, "What a coward, and to think, Sister Liu Junli cares so much about you!"
Finally, Lin Fan understood; it turned out that Cheng Lin’s hatred stemmed from Liu Junli’s affection?
Lin Fan laughed indifferently again and casually remarked, "At least I’m better off than someone whose affection is met with unreciprocated feelings!"
Lin Fan’s words were clear; he was taunting Cheng Lin for his unrequited love for Liu Junli, while she didn’t care about him at all.
This was simply pouring salt on Cheng Lin’s wound.
