A Huan pulled Huai Nan over, and looked at Ping Jin in disgust, "With how much you know, why do you keep fighting Huai Nan?" A Huan successfully levelled up, but his two friends were both eliminated, and there was a part of the credit for this. He knew that he should not blame Ping Jin, but Ping Jin's actions now was something he could not swallow. Huai Nan coming out from the countryside was something he did not know, Ping Jin had always relied on his experience from participating in the competition five times, and along the way, he would frequently hit Huai Nan's shoulder or head. Huai Nan being honest, he could not bear to watch.
A Huan did not listen to Huai Nan, and looked at Ping Jin with an unpleasant expression, "Huai Nan, how long have you known him, do not side with him. That time, you didn't feel anything heavy, but I felt like he did it on purpose. "
Jiang Shiyu pulled A Huan back, and said in a low voice: "Quiet, there's movement!"
Jiang Shiyu raised her head and looked towards the left front, where there was a buzzing sound. It startled a group of birds in the forest and someone shouted: "What is that?"
A huge figure dashed out of the forest to the left and revealed a sinister face in the mottled shade of the trees. The two green eyes looked at them, and the hair on their robust bodies stood on end as they snorted at the people on the round table. This was a magical beast wolf. It was famous for its speed, and its bite strength was also formidable. If it was caught, it would have no chance of survival.
They could only watch helplessly as this magical beast sprung out from the forest and arrived at the round table in a flash. Someone was so frightened that his legs trembled and he fell back, pointing at the wolf. "It's a wolf …"
"Run!" Someone shouted in shock, and everyone ran away from the round platform. A Huan whispered to Jiang Shiyu, "This wolf does not have any intention to attack, do not be afraid. Furthermore... This is a contracted soul beast. " Since it's a soul beast, it must have a master to control it.
There were nearly a hundred generals on the round stage. However, there was less than half of them left this time; most of them had already run far away.
The magical beast wolf was still closing in, its right hind leg stamping on the ground as if exerting its strength. A lively voice suddenly came from behind the magical beast wolf, "Why are you running so fast? Wait for me." With that, a person wearing a straw hat walked out from behind the magical beast. Seeing everyone looking at him in surprise, he grinned and revealed a mouthful of white teeth. "Sorry, I was late for something at home." He took off his straw hat and bowed apologetically.
Raising his head, he said seriously, "However, we still have to follow the rules. "Those who have left the round table, please go back directly."
The person running away immediately understood. This person was the examiner of the second test. Not only were they late, but they had also let the magical beasts scare them first, directly eliminating half of the examiners. Someone wanted to raise an objection, but the wolf looked over with its green eyes. All of them shut their mouths immediately.
The examiner looked to be very young, as he smiled and said, "The remaining people, please stand on the round table. We will now begin the second round of the exam."
The youth in the straw hat withdrew his magical beast and walked to the round table, "The second round will take three days. Anyone who returns to the round table within three days will pass." "Next, I will send you into the tower. There are many obstacles inside. I wish you good luck." After saying that, the young man in the straw hat squatted down and placed his hand on the round table, silently chanting a few words. Light appeared around the round table, and the round platform's stone slab instantly disappeared, and a huge black hole appeared under everyone's feet, and with a swoosh, the crowd who did not know what was going on fell down, and the young man in the straw hat even said in a regretful tone, "Ah, I forgot. If you encounter any problems, remember to call for my name when you give up, so that I can save you." "My name is..."
Everyone landed in the pagoda in unison. The hole above their heads was once again replaced by a stone tablet. After a moment of confusion, someone suggested to directly fight their way up the stone slab. The dozen or so people forcefully used force to break through, but all of them returned defeated. He could only find other ways to return to the round table at the top of the tower.
The place they were standing at had already been lit up by a lot of candles when they landed, making it very bright. Someone walked along the wall and found that there was no way out.
"Was it intentional?" All four sides are walls, and except for the board above our heads, we can't get out. "
"That's right. He even said for us to call him by his name, but we couldn't even hear his name clearly."
The crowd broke out into a flurry of discussion.
Jiang Shiyu began to observe along the corner of the wall. Since she could not exit from the top, then the method of exit would definitely exist within this sealed space.
Jiang Shiyu had seen underground tunnels created by Luo Ke before, so she reckoned that they were probably in the same place, but it was difficult for them to discover anything. After Jiang Shiyu explained her plan to A Huan and the other two, the four of them started to touch the walls and bricks inch by inch, to see if they could find anything wrong.
Jiang Shiyu touched the wall, it was a little strange, the stone bricks were not smooth surfaces, but had slight depressions, and the depressions on each brick were different. She stood at a distance and looked, the candle flame was above them, the shadow was very heavy.
The other three people also noticed this. They looked at each other and reached for a candle holder. They began to observe the wall.
The sunken spots on the stone bricks seemed to be drawn by some sort of powerful weapon. He didn't know what it was.
Some of them even noticed the way to search through the wall. Someone saw Jiang Shiyu taking down the candlestick, and also took one, lighting up the wall, and suddenly shouted: "All of you, quickly come over and look!"
Everyone ran over. The man pointed at the brick and said, "I've seen this brick before. This is a way of painting in my hometown. This brick is painted with a type of animal. Look, this is a horn. "
Jiang Shiyu was close by, holding onto the candlestick, she looked at it, only to see that the lines on the brick were mixed together, making it look like a horn, the top part of the brick had two parts.
