Chapter 343: Promoted (2/2)

In addition to Wang Tong and Li Shiming, the four inner court disciples also saw through the illusions and stormed directly towards the exit. So determined they were in achieving the best results in the test that they were leading the first formation.

The four didn't bring their weapon with them, but it did not slow them down.

Li Ruoer had quickly made her way to the front of the line. The illusion was mere child's play for her. About twenty contestants had formed the leading group, and they would be competing for the top ten.

Ten minutes later, Li Shiming had finally made his way to the exit. As he stepped out of the maze, the system disengaged the single mode, and Li Shiming saw someone else was already there waiting for him.

”Brother Zhang Buyu, long time no see.”

”Brother Li, our master asked me to send your father a message. He missed your lord father a lot, and looked forward to having another round of Go with him.”

”I will deliver the message for you. Father had been busy. Otherwise, he would have already visited Master Huang.”

Zhang Buyu nodded, then he heard footsteps coming from the direction of the maze exit.

”Brother Zhang! Brother Li! How long have you been waiting? Ah! I am exhausted!” Ye Kai rushed out of the maze and smiled broadly.

Since Li Shiming had also attended the Templar's Court before, the disciples didn't mind calling him ”brother.”

As soon as Ye Kai walked out of the exit, Li Ruoer followed suit.

”Nice to see you, Sister Li!” Ye Kai smiled at Li Ruoer.

Li Ruoer acknowledged Ye Kai with a nod, then she cast a knowing glance at her brother. The four waited at the exit for the rest of the six contestants, who would join them at the finals.

The fifth contestant that went through the exit was a fighter who looked like in his early twenties. He was followed by Yao Bai, Wu Gang, and the others. Turbolix was the ninth player that emerged out from the exit.

Li Ruoer stared at the exit expectantly, wondering why it took Wang Tong so long to finish the test.

Finally, Li Ruoer watched as Wang Tong sauntered through the gate. The exit shut off immediately behind Wang Tong, signifying the end of the test for top ten contestants.

Many strong fighters, such as Wang Ben, were not included in the top ten list. Instead of speed, he favored complete annihilation of Zergs and bots in the Maze, and therefore, he didn't make it to the top ten regarding speed.

As if Wang Tong had felt Li Ruoer's stare, he looked towards the Enchantress, who immediately looked away. Her expression was cold as ever. Among all the hotshots, Wang Tong felt he had once again become a no account. Many of the top ten players had no idea who this boy was, as they had been expecting Wang Ben or other elite fighters from S-Class academies.

”Hi, are you friends with Brother Hu?” Ye Kai asked.

”Are you always so talkative?” Wang Tong replied with a question.

Embarrassed by Wang Tong's comment, Ye Kai scratched his head, trying to find words in his mouth. ”Ah...Haha...hmm... I like to make new friends, that's all.”

”Haha, don't mind me, I was just kidding!” Wang Tong laughed.

”Come here, Ye Kai!” Wu Gang called Ye Kai over to him, as he didn't want him to talk to a stranger who could potentially be their opponent.

”Fine, brother!” Wu Gang's command seemed to have taken the wind out of Ye Kai's sail as he plodded back to his group.

The ten players waited for a few minutes, and a gate opened up in front of them. They couldn't see anything through the gate except for light.

As the ten players stepped into the light, they were greeted with cheers and applause. They had earned their ticket to the final matches on the moon.

Zhou Sisi walked to Wang Tong and said, ”I knew you could do it!”

”Haha, thanks! Should we wait for Hu Yangxuan?”
