Tower of Trials, Hong Dali"s designated room, level 20."Oh my, these tigers are even cuter than my Quentin!" Hong Dali laughed and patted the heads of the tiger-like beasts in front of him. While patting them, he pulled on their eyebrows and beards. Some of the tigers even rolled over and exposed their tummies. Hong Dali grinned and tickled them. These tigers, which ate countless other people in the other rooms, seemed to be as obedient as kittens now, tossing around on the floor, so comfortable that they almost couldn"t open their eyes…
"Hehe, these little fellows are really cute." Hong Dali, who had the t.i.tle of "Animal"s Best Friend", accompanied the little tigers and played for as long as 20 minutes. Then, he lay on their stomach and sighed in satisfaction, then said, "The Tower of Trials only have animals, that"s not bad. I love it this way, hehe."
At this moment, the leader of these tigers obediently laid beside Hong Dali, looked at him and said, "Young Master, there are still many levels left, you shouldn"t waste time here anymore. I heard that there"s a very precious item on level 30!"
Huh? Is this counted as providing information to me?
Hong Dali touched his chin and said, "It"s not like I lack treasures, it isn"t important to obtain that item. Those treasures from the previous levels weren"t much too, there wasn"t anything that I liked. It"s really depressing."
"Level 30 is different." The leader said, "According to the news I received, the reward is a necklace. It"s said that this necklace has a big use in this virtual world, but I don"t know what this use really is. But I am sure that it"s very formidable. Young Master, you must hurry up and obtain it."
"Then… Alright." Hong Dali thought for a while, then nodded and said, "I shall go see what it is then, hehe."
…
Outside, amongst the crowds.
The district that Yin Tianzong was at.
"That mysterious powerful person has entered level 20 for 15 minutes already. Within this period, there wasn"t a single person who pa.s.sed level 19 and went to level 20." Yin Tianzong looked at the big screen and said to himself, "I wonder where my Brother Dali is now. I reckon he should at least be on level 10, and level 13 and 14 shouldn"t be a problem for him too…"
The others were staring at the information displayed on the screen and making private bets. "Do you guys think that the mysterious powerful person can get past level 20?"
"I don"t think so. Level 20 is a large obstacle, the difficulty is on another level altogether. Only super talents can pa.s.s through this level easily."
"That"s true. Let"s wait, then. There isn"t anything important to do today, anyway. Let"s see how far this mysterious guy can go."
…
Jiang Family district.
"It has already been 15 minutes, I wonder how long more this mysterious person need…" Jiang Duxing looked at the big screen and muttered, "I hope he reveals his ident.i.ty. If not, it would be a pity to not be unable to recruit such a talent…"
Unexpectedly, just as he was saying this, he suddenly went silent.
Because the big screen had refreshed. The number of people on level 19 had returned to four people. As for level 20, there were two people now!
Number One: Hidden.
Number Two: Hidden.
The entire world was astonished. In this virtual world, at the places under Shenluo City, everyone who was still discussing and commenting just now all instantly went quiet!
15 minutes! From level 19 to level 20! He only used 15 minutes!
What kind of speed was that? Even the powerful guy who pa.s.sed level 20 first still used 20 minutes! And yet this person only used 15 minutes! What kind of genius must this person be to be able to achieve this!?
"G.o.d!" After a brief silence of surprise, Jiang Duxing stuttered, "This… This… 15 minutes to pa.s.s level 20!? This person"s power is… absolutely frightening!"
"A talent! A super talent!" Jiang Qianxue stared deadly at the screen, her face red from excitement. "Our Shenluo City has such talent too! Father, this person, I want to meet him! I must definitely meet him!"
By this time, they couldn"t be concerned with the rules anymore, it was more important to find this person first!
Jiang Duxing instructed the guards. "Go and check now. No matter what, check how to contact these two geniuses! Go now!"
"Yes!"
Pa.s.sing level 20 meant that he could directly become a red-level Honorary Aristocrat! For someone so powerful, as long as they could find out who he was, they would definitely focus on grooming him! They would definitely use all kinds of resources and treatments to make him satisfied!
…
Everyone from Shenluo City erupted!
They all cheered and hugged one another and agitatedly said, "Hahahaha! Impressive! Really impressive! Our Shenluo City actually has two such geniuses! With this result, our city will be able to obtain more resources from the Galaxy Aristocrats!"
"That"s right, with such a good result, the policies of the Galaxy Aristocrats will definitely lean to our favor!"
This was akin to high school on Earth. If a school didn"t produce any impressive students for a few years, the ministry of education"s treatment toward the school would naturally become poorer. But if a school with normal results suddenly produced two students who went on to the top universities, the treatment towards the school would definitely improve!
This was the same for Shenluo City now. Having these two geniuses appear in their city now, the Galaxy Aristocrats would definitely give better policy treatments. Therefore, ordinary citizens would benefit too.
As for the Honorary Aristocrats in the Jiang Family district, there were a lot of discussions here too.
"This is great." Ao Ran looked at the screen and gave out a long breath. "This super-genius definitely won"t just stop at becoming an orange-level Honorary Aristocrat. Hehe, the ones who should be depressed now are those higher-level Honorary Aristocrats, not us."
For the promotion trials for Honorary Aristocrats, if a red-level challenged an orange-level, Ao Ran might be in danger of meeting this mysterious person. But if the power of this person wasn"t only that of an orange-level, he would instead not have to worry anymore.
After all, this super-genius would challenge and replace the slot of those at the yellow-level. By that time, the unfortunate person would be the Honorary Aristocrat who was one level above him—press on, youngster…
The others exclaimed—
"This person is really too impressive! That"s only 15 minutes, right? And he already pa.s.sed through level 20, he"s really strong!"
"Frightening! I wonder if he can pa.s.s level 21."
"From the current look of things, that might be very possible. There isn"t a single person in the Milky Way who has pa.s.sed through level 21 yet!"
"Press on! Please press on!"
Just a short while later, the news of a mysterious person breaking through level 18, 19, and 20 had spread throughout the entire Shenluo City. Everyone was looking and waiting to see if this person was able to continue breaking through to the higher levels! To see how far he could go! And also to see how much more astonishment he could bring to them!
…
At the same time, the other Galaxy Aristocrats of the other main cities.
"Impressive, there are actually two people who pa.s.sed level 20 in Shenluo City, that"s really fortunate."
"That"s right, having two people pa.s.s level 20 at once, Shenluo City will definitely obtain a lot of good resources now!"
"Sigh, we really can"t be compared to them at all. There isn"t a single person from our city that pa.s.sed level 20 yet, what a pity."
"That"s true, this is really depressing. Let"s stop talking and continue watching. I wonder if this person can pa.s.s level 21!"
"Right, let"s look carefully!"
…
Inside the Tower of Trials.
"There isn"t anything good on this level either." Hong Dali looked at the item in the treasure box and sniffled in dissatisfaction. "It"s just some stupid gemstones. If not, it will be just some useless equipment. This level only gave me an energy gem with an enhancement of 40%, this is really too lousy… Forget it, I shall just keep it first and give it away as a present."
Saying so, he turned around and patted the Land Dragon"s big head, smiled and said, "Okay, darlings, I am going to continue now. You guys slowly play on!"
"Roar roar!" The Land Dragon leader smiled till its eyes became heart-shaped and affectionately nudged his face. "You are welcomed to come back here often!"
"Hahaha! Definitely, I will come to see you guys when I have the time!" Hong Dali was teased till he laughed and said, "See you guys next time, I shall be going up first!"
…
"G.o.d, look, the ranking on the big screen has changed again!"
Countless people pointed at the big screen and exclaimed loudly.
On the screen, the ranking had changed.
Current number of people who pa.s.sed level 21—Total: 1, Shenluo City: 1.
First: Hidden
"This…" Jiang Duxing stared in bewilderment at the big screen, his eyes almost popping out. "This time only took ten plus minutes! This person actually pa.s.sed level 21 so quickly! Number one in the entire Milky Way!"
"He"s so impressive!" Jiang Qianxue"s face was red from excitement, and her fists were clenched so hard that the veins were almost popping out. "Our Shenluo City actually had such a super-genius!"
Everyone in Shenluo City cheered—
"Hahaha! Impressive, impressive! Our Shenluo City actually had some who obtained number one in the entire Milky Way, this is really too impressive!"
"Haha, this kind of super-genius can only be seen once in a few hundred years, right?"
"That"s right, he"s really impressive. This is a once in a lifetime experience, once in a lifetime! I still can"t believe I"m witnessing such a crazy thing!"
…
The other main cities.
"G.o.d, that powerful guy from Shenluo City actually pa.s.sed level 21 in such a short time! This is absolutely a miracle!"
"It"s only been ten-plus minutes, right? And he already pa.s.sed level 21? This kind of genius…"
