Chapter 749: Green Bird
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the start, everyone in Shenluo City was debating whether this mysterious man would be able to break through the last three levels. Then, very quickly, someone started shouting, “Press on! Mysterious man!” His words resounded with what everyone else thought too. So, a few dozen people started echoing after him. Then, this spread to hundreds of people, then to thousands…
In just a short three minutes, everyone in Shenluo City was loudly shouting—
“Press on, mysterious man! You are the best!”
“Press on! You can do it!”
In the end, what they were shouting were only just two words—
“Press on!”
“Press on!” Jiang Qianxue also started following the rest and shouting, “Press on!”
“Press on!” Yin Tianzong"s tears covered his face as he said, “Mysterious perfect man, press on! AHHHH! You are my big brother! My biological brother!”
Countless s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps were flying over to Shenluo City from the other cities. Even the Galaxy Aristocrats from other places were flying here too. Such a super genius actually appeared, even if the other Galaxy Aristocrats couldn"t pull him to their side, they should at least maintain a good relations.h.i.+p with this mysterious man.
After all, a normal person might not ever have the chance to see such a super genius in their entire lifetime.
Outside, the crowd was bustling and rowdy. But inside the Tower of Trials…
“The reward on this level 27 is really too lousy. The rewards after level 25 are all secret manuals, what is this "Wind Flower Snow Moon Palm 1 "? The name of this secret manual is really…” Hong Dali looked at the secret manual in the treasure box for level 27 and felt that the reward was very unsatisfactory. “At least give me a "Melancholic Palms 2 " or something, not this "Wind Flower Snow Moon Palm"… Forget it, I shall just keep it first.”
After keeping the secret manual, Hong Dali continued to go up the tower. “Yup, let"s see what it is up there. On level 27 it"s already Tyrannosaurus guarding the place, I wonder what"s the creatures on top are like. Will legendary dragons be appearing too?”
10 minutes later.
“It changed, hahahaha! It changed again!” Regardless if they knew one another or not, everyone just started hugging those beside them and looked at the big screen.
Current number of people who pa.s.sed level 28—Total: 1, Shenluo City: 1.
First: Hidden
He pa.s.sed level 28! Only two more levels to go!
Just two more levels!
“Hahaha! He can definitely succeed, he definitely can!” Everyone in Shenluo City stared intently at the big screen. Currently, they were all thinking the same thing—could the mysterious man get past the last two levels too!?
Jiang Family district.
“Master, I am back.” A young man wearing a purple Honorary Aristocrat cape gradually walked up to Jiang Duxing, respectfully saluted, and said, “Purple-level Honorary Aristocrat Fei Hong, pa.s.sed level 20, reporting back now.”
This Fei Hong was very handsome, with his long golden hair in the wind behind him. He was 1.85 meters tall and his muscles were very even. His body wouldn"t give people a bulky impression, but only feel comfortable. And his cape"s color was purple, which already represented how powerful he was!
It wasn"t an overstatement to say that in this Shenluo City, he was the strongest Honorary Aristocrat amongst all the Honorary Aristocrats that belonged to the Jiang Family! Only one step away from the highest level that an Honorary Aristocrat could get to, black-level!
For the past two years, no one had been able to promote to a black-level Honorary Aristocrat. Fei Hong was the most likely candidate to succeed this year!
“Yup, not bad.” Hearing his report, Jiang Duxing was very satisfied. He intimately patted Fei Hong"s shoulder and said, “I knew that you are definitely one of those people who hid their ident.i.ty and got past level 20. It is impressive enough to be able to get past level 20 on the first day in such a short time. Indeed, you didn"t waste my efforts in grooming you. However…”
Speaking up to this point, Jiang Duxing smiled and said, “You must remember that there will always be people better than you.” Jiang Duxing pointed at the big screen and said, “A super-genius appeared in our Shenluo City, and he has already pa.s.sed level 28 now and is breaking through level 29. Compared to him, you still need to work harder.”
“I have heard of him.” Fei Hong looked at the big screen, smiled and said, “Every generation, there will be talented people appearing. I am not one of the most talented in the first place, so I never dared to think too highly of myself.”
“Haha, good!” Jiang Duxing laughed loudly and praised. “This is what I like most about you, you never become arrogant and too full of yourself. This characteristic of yours is very good! Not bad! Go and rest a while first, let"s see how many levels this mysterious man can get to.”
“I shall be leaving first then.”
Saying so, Fei Hong took a few steps back, turned around, and returned to the Honorary Aristocrat"s resting place. He casually found a place and sat down, then closed his eyes to rest.
“Brother Fei Hong.” Then, the orange-level Honorary Aristocrat Ao Ran came up and softly asked, “How many levels did you pa.s.s?”
“20 levels.” Fei Hong didn"t act loftily towards this orange-level like what someone might expect a purple-level to do. Instead, his att.i.tude was quite friendly. “I didn"t try level 21 yet, only just took a look at it. But from what I feel, according to the current difficulty, I can at most pa.s.s level 24. As for the levels after that, I will need time to train and try.”
This Fei Hong did indeed have the strength to boast such confidence.
“Brother Fei Hong, you are really strong.” Ao Ran exclaimed and said, “You are actually so confident! That"s level 24! I reckon that even if I give my all, I can only pa.s.s level 21 at most.”
“I only said that I might be able to get past level 24, not definitely.” Fei Hong looked at the big screen for level 28 and softly said, “There are always people better outside. Compared to this super genius, my accomplishment can only be considered child"s play. Ha, this kind of person can only possibly appear once in a thousand years, isn"t it.” Speaking up to this point, he took in a deep breath and said, “It"s a pity that he hid his ident.i.ty. If not, it would be worth dying to even have to chance to spar with him once.”
Fei Hong, purple-level Honorary Aristocrat, a standard martial arts fanatic. Yet, his physical appearance was extremely handsome and attracted numerous young ladies. It"s a pity that he always avoided getting into a relations.h.i.+p, which broke countless ladies" hearts.
From his words, it could also be seen how extremely obsessed with martial arts this super handsome guy was.
“Sigh, it"s good enough to be able to see such a genius appearing today too.” Ao Ran looked at the big screen and said, “I don"t dare to compete with him at all, the gap between us is too big.”
“Ha…” Fei Hong"s eyes expressed his infinite yearning. “I wonder what kind of super-powerful person this super-genius is in the real world?”
Inside the Tower of Trials.
Hong Dali didn"t know whether he was a genius or not, but he was indeed having fun here…
Other people would have to fight hard to get past each level, but he was enjoying the view and playing all the way up to level 29—the Boss on this level was actually a huge bird.
This huge bird was greenish-blue in color, it had a crown on top of its head, and its tail was ablaze with a greenish-blue flame. Its body was as much as 30 plus meters long and its wingspan was close to 50 meters. Currently, it was staring intently at Hong Dali with its pair of wide-open round eyes.
“Wow! What a beautiful big bird!” Hong Dali looked at this bird and instantly opened his mouth wide in astonishment. “You are really too beautiful, the legendary G.o.dly bird Green Pheonix must be referring to you, right?”
“You are very impressive, young man.” Green Pheonix stared at Hong Dali and gradually opened its mouth and talked human speech, saying, “I thought that those who can make it to this stage will all be those super-powerful people from the real world, but I never expected someone strange like you to come here. I can"t sense any killing aura from you at all. Instead, what I sense from you is… closeness.”
This Green Pheonix was obviously very intelligent and could see through Hong Dali"s nature directly. It didn"t attack Hong Dali and also didn"t express any signs of intimacy towards him.
If it could be said that the relations.h.i.+p of Hong Dali and the animals from before were like master and servant, then, the relations.h.i.+p between him and this mystical green bird was more like friends—the type of very normal friends.
“Ah, I am the animal"s best friend, after all.” Hong Dali stood in front of this huge green bird, scratched his head, grinned, and said, “Actually, I didn"t plan to get past the levels. But since I am already up here, I figure that I may as well take a look. If you are unwilling, I shall just go out now since that it"s unlikely that I can defeat you.”
“Hm, animal"s best friend, this t.i.tle is really unique.” The green bird nodded, then gently said, “In that case, answer me three questions. If I am satisfied with your answers, I shall let you pa.s.s. If not, you shall go back now, how about that?”
“Sure, no problem.” Hong Dali enthusiastically nodded and said, “It will be best that we don"t need to fight!”
“Yup, you don"t have any killing aura on you, and also don"t covet the treasure behind me. You didn"t try any sinister plan or try to take it by force, that is very good.” The green bird gradually said, “Then, I shall consider that you have pa.s.sed the first question.”
Huh? I already pa.s.sed the first question, just like that? It looks like this level isn"t very difficult too, hehe.
“Then, the second question.” The green bird asked, “What"s your aim. Or rather, what are you striving for. Strength? Power? Money? Status? Or is it… Women?”
This question was more difficult to answer. Hong Dali c.o.c.ked his head, thought for a while, then asked, “About this… Does being a superprodigal count?”
“Pro… Prodigal?” The previously always composed green bird was obviously dazed for a while. Then, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, it asked, “What kind of goal is this?”
“Not everyone can become a superprodigal.” Hong Dali twitched his lips and said, “It isn"t easy at all.”
“I shall just consider that you pa.s.sed the second question.” The green bird was obviously having a hard time trying to keep its serious expression. “The third question is, what will you do when you have invincible power in your hands?”
Hearing this, Hong Dali was instantly dazed.
After I have invincible power? This question is really profound. My aim is to become the number one prodigal in the Universe, not the strongest person in the Universe. How should I answer this question?
