Chapter 155 - A Key (2/2)
As everyone knew, passing each trial of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion brings tremendous prizes. Even if it were only the first three rounds, the prizes were incredibly huge.
Gong Yang, for example, had passed three rounds in a row in the Martial Serendipity Pavilion and that improved his cultivation by three layers!
The benefits of the first three rounds were already this incredible. How crazy would the prizes be if one were to pass the fourth round, which no one had reached before?
Meanwhile, at the peak of Autumn Mountain, a shocked expression was on everyone’s face upon hearing the elder’s words.
“What? A chance to proceed to the fourth-layer of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion?”
“Wow, the Martial Serendipity Pavilion has never opened the fourth-layer for anyone before. Is it finally going to be open this time?”
“The Martial Serendipity Pavilion is an incredible presence. Even a Martial Ancestor Realm could not force his way into it unless he is searching for death. I wonder what the fourth round looks like?”
……
Elder Fang, the elder of the Disordered Flames Sect and the elder of the Qing Nu Sect showed a hint of envy in their eyes.
Although receiving the key did not necessarily mean he was guaranteed to reach the fourth layer, the thought of it was enough to stir everyone crazy!
Zhang Taiyi was instantly dumbstruck. He had never expected Qin Nan, with a mere eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, to be granted the key that would allow him to proceed to the fourth round.
Could it be that Qin Nan is going to make miracles happen again in the Martial Serendipity Pavilion?
Elder Fang took a deep breath before he let out a laugh and said, “Receiving this key does not mean you will definitely reach the fourth round. To reach the fourth round, you have to at least pass the next two rounds. Who can guarantee that Qin Nan will pass the next two rounds?”
Many nodded their heads in agreement after hearing this.
Despite receiving the key, it would be extremely difficult for Qin Nan to pass the next two rounds since his Martial Spirit was only eighth-grade Huang ranked!
...In the meantime, in the first-layer of Martial Serendipity Pavilion...
The old man scanned the crowd before waving his hand again and exclaiming, “Those who failed are to leave the Martial Serendipity Pavilion. Those who passed will proceed to the second round!”
Following the words of the old man, Qin Nan could only feel the scene around him twist rapidly as if it was only an illusion, which had now vanished.
The crowd could only see darkness before them and the next thing they knew, they had arrived at a different place!
Before anyone could react, an icy voice was heard, “This is the second round of the trial. This round focuses on your strength - pure strength! The top five of the round will proceed to the next round with the prizes! The other five will be forced to leave the Martial Serendipity Pavilion!”
Qin Nan immediately calmed his thoughts after hearing those words before looking at the owner of the voice.
A grim male could be seen standing on a training ground. His face was expressionless, with a pair of icy eyes, giving him the appearance of an emotionless statue.
Qin Nan’s heart shuddered. Even without using the Eyes of Divine Battle Spirit, he could tell that this grim man was stronger than the old man in the first round of the trial.
“The trial starts now!”
The grim man grabbed at the air with his hand. He revealed a huge boulder the size of a tiny mountain and placed it on the training ground, causing the entire place to shake vigorously.
The huge boulder was different from the Potential Stone. It was yellow in color, similar to the color of the ground. Looking from afar, it seemed extremely heavy and difficult to move.
“This boulder is known as the Force Boulder. Attack the boulder with all your strength and it will measure the force of your attack!” The grim man glanced at the crowd and yelled, “Who’s first?”
