Su Luo paid the Guardian no mind and strutted away with Big Sister Wei.

After all, the middle-aged woman was merely a Guardian. The Guardian in Downstream Mountain had been killed by Su Luo; just what was so extraordinary about being a Guardian?

Su Luo stood in front of the Tower of Trials, waiting to enter.

At this time, she was carefully observing the crowd of people around her.

Here, they were roughly divided into a dozen or more small groups. Of course, the largest group was the one led by Leng Xiao.

The second largest... Su Luo's gaze flickered.

That was the group with an iron-tower-like man!

He was more than three meters tall and covered in bulging muscles from head to toe. Additionally, his torso was bare, showing his bronze skin. With all his protruding well-defined muscles, he seemed extraordinarily powerful.

Su Luo carefully observed that this person was of the power-based combat type—the same type as the Big Sister Wei. Moreover, his strength was very likely higher than Big Sister Wei’s.

While touching her chin, Su Luo frowned slightly.

The people here were stronger than she had expected. If she hadn’t gotten Nangong Liuyun's advice, she reckoned it would be unlikely for her to enter the top ten this time.

Fortunately, with his expert advice, Su Luo was full of confidence for this Tower of Trials.

Right at this moment, the iron-tower-like man’s gaze swept over Su Luo. When he saw Su Luo's thin arms and legs, he snorted coldly through his nostrils: "Little mosquito!"

This was his evaluation of Su Luo.

Big Sister Wei shook the big wooden club in her hand and shouted angrily: "You fat-headed pig-brained blockhead! Do you dare to fight me?!"

With a bang, she slammed her big wooden club heavily onto the ground.

The Iron-Tower Man cast a disdainful look at Big Sister Wei, raised his chin arrogantly, and turned his head away. He was expressing that it was really beneath his dignity to bother with her!

Big Sister Wei suddenly burned with rage like a beast whose tail had been stepped on. She got so angry that she roared in anger, wishing to rush up and just swing her wooden club haphazardly.

Fortunately, Su Luo stopped her.

"Stop messing around. You can fight however you want once we’re inside. Fighting is restricted here." Su Luo's voice was neither cold nor hot and neither soft nor loud, yet it stood out enough for the Iron-Tower Man and Leng Xiao to overhear.

Before the large iron-tower-like man even showed much of a reaction, Leng Xiao sneered.

‘Once you’re inside? Wench, you will be sent out as soon as you enter. Yet you’re still thinking of fighting however you want once you’re inside? Such big talk!’ Leng Xiao glanced at Su Luo arrogantly while badmouthing her inwardly.

Soon after, the door of the Tower of Trials opened.

Su Luo and Big Sister Wei squeezed through the crowd to get inside.

As soon as she entered, Su Luo discovered that they were surrounded by the color of gold.

This time, the map turned out to be a desert—a vast expanse of desert. The desert had very high temperatures and felt sizzling hot all around.

They had only just entered, but many people had already started fighting!

This was because those who struck first would gain the upper hand [1], while those who struck later would suffer a devastating blow [2]. No one wanted to become someone else’s cannon fodder. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Big Sister Wei was still looking forward to having a real battle with Iron-Tower Man, but Su Luo unexpectedly grabbed her hand and shot explosively towards a secluded place at flying speed.

The ever-obedient Big Sister Wei could only helplessly follow Su Luo to escape. However, she was unhappy about it at heart and muttered: "We aren’t going to fight? Why are we running?"

Big Sister Wei looked back as she ran.

The place where a hundred people stood originally was now the main battlefield!

It was a cruel melee! A very spirited battle! Big Sister Wei was gearing up, eagerly wanting to help fight.

Of course, there were also those who, like Su Luo, were frantically running swiftly in all directions. Their speed was as fast as a ray of light flashing by.

Nevertheless, Su Luo firmly grabbed hold of Big Sister Wei and lowered her voice. With an unprecedented seriousness in her tone, Su Luo said: "Run quickly! If we’re surrounded by Leng Xiao’s group of more than 20 people, it will be useless no matter how powerful we are."
