Chapter 583: Same Trial (2/2)

Krune and Iem wouldn't just charge inside. After all, those guards were all at the Semi-Divinity Realm, at the very least. That being said, Krune and Iem decided to ask around what is this tower.

People used a very simple name for it, Godly Tower. Turns out that this tower had always been here as far as people remember. It is also this tower that provided the underground city with abundant Godly Energy for cultivation. From what they heard, the people who resided inside where called 'chosen ones' who passed the trials. The Godly Energy inside the tower is the most concentrated one, so anyone who lived there would have an easy cultivation path. Everyone, obviously, wanted to enter it.

However, the city is enormous, with millions of people. There was no way everyone could cultivate inside. Afraid that the tower might get destroyed due to the sheer number of people trying to enter it, a rule had been established. Every year, a trial was made to allow 10 cultivators to enter. As one can imagine, only the 10 best ones will join the tower.

As it seemed, anyone can participate in the trial. There is simply no cultivation restriction for it. After prying further into it, Krune and Iem found out that the next trial would be occurring just a week later.

”Weird... were we really lucky enough to arrive here just in time for the trial? Why do I feel like our time arrival was planned from the very start?”

Krune agreed with Iem.

”Most likely, it was the same thing that called me earlier. Anyway, I don't think that this 'thing' can move at the moment. Otherwise, why would it call me? It could simply come out and see me straight away. That being said, I have no other choice other than entering and take a look inside.”

Iem nodded.

”I agree with you. That's the only clue we have to go out so far, so I'll take part in this trial as well. Let's go register for it so that we can find what it is about.”

It wasn't hard for Krune and Iem to find the place to register. After all, everyone wanted to enter the Godly Tower. Without technology, things like identity check or whatever also didn't exist in this place, which was pretty convenient for Krune's group.

Finally, they came to understand what the trial was about through the mouth of the attendant.

”Are you messing with me? How come you don't know?”

Iem then said.

”It's just that we want to hear it from you as well. After all, you work with the registration for the trail. Who knows? You might know something that we don't.”

The attendant narrowed his eyes but decided to speak in the end.

”What is there to know more about? It's merely a Godly Energy Recharging test. Everyone who is allowed to cultivate inside must be a genius in cultivation. That means they must be good at absorbing Godly Energy. Only like that will you be able to use your position in the tower to its fullest. All you need to do is touch the Godly Energy Orb and try to charge as much Godly Energy inside it as possible.”

Krune and Iem were taken aback.

”This... wouldn't it be unfair to the cultivators with at lower cultivation realms?”

”What you talking about? Did you forget that the Godly Orbs adjust their level according to the trier's cultivation? I wonder if someone had locked you during your entire life. How come you don't even know this?”

Because the Underground City had never received an outsider before, the guy didn't suspect that Krune and Iem came from outside. Still, he felt these two's question to be quite burdensome. Since everyone knows those things, he couldn't help but think that Krune and Iem were really making fun of him.

Iem quickly bowed after hearing that.

”Thank you, brother. It seems like it is as we heard.”

Iem then threw a small pouch to the guy. When he opened it, his eyes lit up. Immediately, his stance changed.

”Hahaha! It's fine. Everyone wants to enter the Godly Tower. It's only normal that you want to investigate a little more.”

Krune and Iem then finished their registration before leaving. After that, Krune commented.

”It's just like the Holy Land. There was a trial there that worked just like this one.”

Iem didn't mind, though.

”Well, who cares? Let's just wait for the test.”

Krune nodded as they returned to their resting place. They could only wait now.
