Luckily, Guo Kang was one of the more friendly top students of Year 2, and he was more than happy to answer their questions.
“When I entered the hell level, there was only a voice which told me the rules in the beginning, but it never came back after that. Jiang Shurong, what about you?”
Jiang Shurong was 20th on the billboard.
Instantly, all eyes were on him.
Jiang Shurong had a very serious look on his face. He hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’ve never met him before either.”
“Right? None of us has ever seen him!” Guo Kang smacked his own thigh. “Jiang Shurong is 20th, but he hasn’t met the man either!”
However, not only had this man greeted Feng Wu, he seemed to like her a lot.
“Wait, isn’t Hua Pianran 10th? What was her experience like?”
“Hua Pianran? She’s not here. She said this challenge was too low-level for her to watch.”
“Gosh, get her here now! It’s not low-level anymore! Feng Wu has almost reached the top 20!”
“Plus, judging by her performance, she may even climb further. She’s not a Year 2 student yet, but she’s already so impressive. That’s worth our attention!”
“That’s true. She’s capable enough to be introduced to our top 10 students.”
“I agree. I need to get Brother Long here.”
“And Brother Shen, too!”
–
Only a couple of the top 10 students were here at first, including Shu Yunruo. But with the turn of events, the students thought it was time to bring their leaders here.
Back inside the Dragon’s Gate, Feng Wu had put the tiger cub back into her chest pocket and was heading quickly for the 12th floor.
“Are you sure you don’t want to take a break?” the black-robed man called after her.
Feng Wu didn’t stop walking.
“You heartless girl.” The man then raised a hand. Something flew out of his palm and shot toward Feng Wu.
“Is he going to kill Feng Wu?!”
That was everyone’s first reaction.
Feng Xun, on the other hand, turned to look at Boss Jun.
When this man started showing a partial attitude toward Feng Wu, Boss Jun’s face turned so grim that it was darker than a stormy sky.
Right now, the look in his brooding eyes was so cold that it sent a chill down Feng Xun’s spine.
However, the flash of light didn’t fly as fast as the others expected, and Feng Wu caught it easily with one hand.
It was a shiny little stone.
Feng Wu looked confused and turned to look at the man.
Covered from head to toe by his robe and the white mask, the man looked so mysterious. However, he seemed to be smiling, and his eyes shone mischievously.
“What’s this?” Feng Wu finally asked.
The man chuckled. “You’ll need it. Now, go.”
There was something affectionate in his eyes.
Affection?
Feng Wu was sure that she had seen wrong. How could this evil man have anything to do with her?
She quickly got rid of the silly idea.
“You only have five minutes left.” The fairy’s trembling voice sounded flustered. “Quickly! You’re running out of time!”
Feng Wu gritted her teeth. “I know.”
The further up she went, the harder the trials became, and the longer it would take to pass them.
