Chapter 170 Confirmation

The entrance closed behind Su Ping as soon as he entered the first level of the dragon tower.

He checked the dark and empty s.p.a.ce which looked very familiar.

“So this is the same place…”

Following his previous experience, he moved to the center of the area and sensed something creepy edging closer. The presence did not try to hide. Instead, it made sure he could detect it, albeit barely.

And this comforted Su Ping greatly.

“Come out already.”

A s.h.i.+ning dot appeared in the dark distance, which grew bigger until Su Ping could see it as the ferocious head of a dragon. It hovered at a distance that made anyone who saw it believe that the dragon’s giant body was nicely concealed in the darkness, waiting to close in.

Of course, the dragon didn’t show any particular reaction against Su Ping’s words. It simply displayed its intrusive power to Su Ping, as if it would devour him in any second. Su Ping used the Astral Telekinesis skill and a small strand of his astral power to reach out to the dragon head. Just as he expected, the power didn’t hit anything.

“Huh. An illusion.” Su Ping sighed in relief. Most people who went there would probably get scared away by this illusion at first sight.

He kept moving forward, provoking the dragon head into lunging at him all of sudden. The image pa.s.sed through his body without producing any effect.

He found the “ceiling entrance” and directly jumped to level 2. As he remembered, this level had been intended to test his endurance by sending an intense dragon will against his mind. The mental pressure would get a hundred times worse compared to what could be felt at the entrance. Cowards would have no hope of pa.s.sing.

As soon as he showed up, he heard a deafening dragon roar which sent a crus.h.i.+ng burden upon him.

He was then sure that this dragon tower was the same as the one inside the system menu. The elements, the setups… not a thing was different.

The onlookers outside the tower had all learned that the particular young man was currently inside the tower, thanks to several pa.s.sionate gossipers. They watched as the first level stopped glowing, which was followed by the second level that had suddenly been lit up.

“He’s on the next floor. That was fast!”

“Did he walk straight across the first floor without stopping at all?”

“Big deal. It’s just an illusion. You ignore it and everything’s done.”

“You make it sound so simple. But that thing’s scary as fu*k. What will you do if you don’t know it’s fake beforehand?”

“That’s why you were so slow back there, idiot.”

The second level of the tower also stopped s.h.i.+ning

“But how?? The second floor is a real test of spirit. You can’t just walk past it!”.

People slowly looked higher, but the third floor didn’t brighten up as they expected.

They looked down again and saw the young man appear at the entrance.

“Ah, so he lost?”

“He can only beat the first floor. Well, even a kid with enough guts can do it. I’m not surprised.”

“He scared me. I thought he was another big genius or something. Turns out he’s a b.u.mmer.”
