Chapter 53 – The 20th Level! (1/2)

“A super genius comparable to that demonic woman has appeared in the sect!” No one knew who’d spoken these words, but it caused the entire Sword Sect’s outer court to seethe with excitement. Some outer court disciples that were originally not interested in the Outer Court Exam had rushed over to the Sword Servant PaG.o.da, and it was even to the extent that some disciples and elders in closed door cultivation had been dragged over by their respective friends.

For a time, the area outside the Sword Servant PaG.o.da was unprecedentedly bustling with excitement.

“A First Heaven Realm expert at the age of 16! Tsk tsk! That Jiang Yuan within the Sword Servant PaG.o.da really does deserve to be the most outstanding genius in Snow River City for the last 100 years!”

“Yeah, I was only at the sixth rank of the Mortal Realm at the age of 16, yet he’s already at the First Heaven Realm. Comparisons really are odious!”

“There are some people in the world that are called monstrous geniuses. Our Sword Sect already had a demonic woman, now it has this Jiang Yuan as well. My Sword Sect is about to rise!”

“There’s also that Labor Disciple, Yang Ye. He was able to persist within the paG.o.da for so long, and it’s sufficient to display his strength and natural talent. If nothing unexpected occurs, then he, Jiang Yuan, and Qingxue will partic.i.p.ate in the next Ascension Rankings!”

“Life really is full of ups and downs! When he was reduced to a Labor Disciple that day, I’d even laughed at him with some other disciples. I never expected that in such a short period of time, he has already surpa.s.sed all of us!”

“Yes, I know about him as well. When a Technique Instructor was guiding me in a technique, and I wasn’t learning seriously, that elder asked me if I wanted to become the second Yang Ye! If he asks me such a question now, I would absolutely say that I do!”

“Hmph! So what if his natural talent isn’t bad? He’d bound to be like an accessory with Jiang Yuan taking the center stage!”

“Junior Brother, those words of yours sound like they carry some envy. However, that’s true as well. After the appearance of that demonic woman, all the other geniuses on the Outer Court Rankings dimmed in comparison and were unable to make a name for themselves. This time, there’s Jiang Yuan, so that Junior Sister Qingxue who had just advanced into the First Heaven Realm and this Labor Disciple can only serve as contrast for him.

When he noticed that more and more people had arrived, and the surroundings had become more and more clamorous, Cao Huo smiled bitterly and shook his heart. These fellows actually disregarded their own cultivation for the sake of seeing a genius.

However, he didn’t stop them because if he heard of such news, then he would definitely rush over as well.

“Geezer, when’s the little laborer coming out?” Meanwhile, Bao’er looked at Cao Huo while she asked with slight impatience. She’d been waiting for a long time, and if this geezer hadn’t said that Yang Ye would gain benefit from being within the paG.o.da, she would have entered it a long time ago and dragged him out.

As he gazed at the little she-devil before him, Cao Huo felt his head hurt slightly. Actually, he was very curious about why this little she-devil would be on so good terms with Yang Ye. Moreover, she even seemed to obey everything that Yang Ye said.

“Geezer, I asked you a question! The little laborer will be fine in there, right?” Bao’er was slightly worried.

Cao Huo hurriedly said with a smile, “Of course, of course. It’s an illusion formation that’s within the paG.o.da, so he’ll be fine even if he dies within the paG.o.da. As for why he still hasn’t come out, I’m not very sure as well. However, I estimate that he should be coming out soon!”

Cao Huo had just finished speaking when the symbols of the Sword Servant PaG.o.da flickered, and then a figure was teleported out.

“He’s out, he’s out, that Labor Disciple has come out….”

When he heard the voices of the disciples in the side, Cao Huo said with a smile, “Look, he has come out….”

Suddenly, Cao Huo’s voice stopped abruptly because the surroundings were too quiet, and that little she-devil had shot a hostile gaze at him again.

Cao Huo instinctively glanced towards the side. He noticed that everyone including the elders by his side had become extremely quiet, and they seemed as if they’d seen a ghost. Cao Huo frowned and looked towards that figure which had been teleported out, and his figure instantly froze on the spot when he saw the appearance of that person.

A strange scene had appeared outside the paG.o.da. The clamorous noise in the surroundings had vanished while everyone had become extremely quiet, and it was even to the extent that they could be said to be flabbergasted.

Jiang Yuan shook his head forcefully, and he opened his eyes when the dizzy feeling in his mind vanished. He was stunned as well when he saw the scene before his eyes. Everyone was looking at him, they were looking at him without even blinking, and it baffled him.
