Yama Minamiya frowned as well. There were naturally many rumors regarding the third level's Level Lord. According to years of statistics, the third level always had the highest death rate. This was because the other levels' Level Lords would follow the assessment program's rules to expel trial-takers. Very few of them would actually kill.
And this dog was extremely greedy. For the treasures on the trial-takers, it would do nearly anything. In order to obtain a better trial result, trial-takers would naturally bring treasures or equipment that could enhance their strength.
But in fact, this was just a tiny point to take note of in the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower. Nearly any description regarding the Level Lord of every level was — if one was unlucky enough to encounter it, there was a high chance of being eliminated.
He had only received news that the selection mode was related to the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower this morning. Yama Minamiya naturally did not study much about the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower. In that short period of time, it was obvious that he would not study the Level Lord that had no research value. He had only learned of it from the chatter of the people around him.
Yama Minamiya said in self-reproach, "Sigh, it's all my fault for being careless. If I was more meticulous and knew about the third level's Level Lord earlier, maybe …"
At this moment, Riko turned her head and consoled him, "Actually, even if you knew about it, it wouldn't be of much use. The Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower has a competitive system. Whether you encounter the third level's Level Lord is the outcome of the competition. Furthermore, the Level Lord's information is not something that people pay attention to. Even if you pay attention to it, it's of little use. Their strength far exceeds the Psionic Mortal Realm. If you encounter them, it's nearly impossible for a trial-taker to escape from their hunt.
Eventually, they would have to use the exit command. "The matters to take note of the Level Lord were typically condensed into a single paragraph: Try your best to clear the level before the Level Lord descends. If you can't, then try your luck. As the assessment program released the Level Lord, it was to further the survival of the fittest. Therefore, the Level Lord's hunt would 'hold back'. A portion of the trial-takers could escape the calamity, but if you were unlucky enough to encounter the Level Lord, remember to shout the exit command in time.
However, the elderly God of Swords did not agree with Pear's words. He said earnestly, "The details determine success or failure. Back then, I was hailed as a child prodigy in the way of the sword. At the fourth level of the Psionic Mortal Realm, I ignored the advice of others and arrogantly entered the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower. However, due to my lack of vigilance, I wasted too much time on the first two levels. At the third level, I encountered the Level Lord. Although I managed to survive, my sect's treasures were snatched away. Therefore, before the selection, this old man has repeatedly reminded those children. If those children take it to heart, I believe that they will be very useful. "
The elderly God of Swords had used his personal experience as an example. It was rather educational, but the timing he chose was not particularly good. This was because after he said those words, the remorse in Yama Minamiya's eyes turned heavier. However, with the elderly God of Swords' status, he naturally did not care about the feelings of a junior that he had only met a few times.
Pear was a little vexed. Her father's heart ached for her. She grumbled at the elderly God of Swords when she suddenly thought of something. With a sly smile, she said, "Eh? Why do I seem to see the names of the Ye siblings in the third level? "
"Impossible!"
When the elderly God of Swords heard this, he subconsciously retorted. However, he immediately turned his head to look at the gigantic stone monument. The stone monument had been split into six sections by the five red lines. The third level had the most people, so the elderly God of Swords squinted his eyes as he seriously checked each line.
The reason why he did not inquire about the Zeus rookies the moment he arrived was firstly because he believed that Yama Minamiya might not notice it. Secondly, it was because he had absolute confidence in them. However, when Pear mentioned that she had seen the Ye siblings on the third level, the elderly God of Swords immediately felt disbelief and panic.
Very soon, the elderly God of Swords' pupils constricted slightly. He saw the three words, Heartless.
Following that was the female whopper, the burly youth, as well as the pigtailed youth's names. The elderly God of Swords gaped slightly.
Slightly lower down, he saw the three words, Sunless. The elderly God of Swords, who was in high spirits, immediately felt like a deflated balloon.
The elderly God of Swords muttered softly, "That shouldn't be the case. I was talking to them in such a serious manner and even recounted the embarrassing incident from back then. They should have taken it to heart. Qing 'er might have been deducing the sword technique and didn't listen carefully, but Wu Qing and a few other little fellows swore that they wouldn't die on the third floor. Could it be that that damned dog is my nemesis? "
The elderly God of Swords's eyes were somewhat listless, as though he had sunk into an unbearable memory.
Upon seeing this, Yama Minamiya stared at Pear slightly. He knew that the elderly God of Swords cared about his reputation, so he had deliberately avoided discussing the matter. However, Pear had revealed the truth in a few moves. Although the elderly God of Swords was somewhat 'despicable', we still have to respect our elders!
Pear stuck out her tongue and thought to herself, "You can't blame me. I must have been corrupted by Shi Xiaobai."

Stone Door # 233.
In just a single exchange, Shi Xiaobai's hands and feet were petrified. The other four were completely petrified. This tiny team had completely collapsed. The might of a Level Lord was completely revealed.
Shi Xiaobai saw his companions being instantly 'insta-killed'. Naturally, he felt many negative emotions like anger, self-blame and hatred, but he did not lose his reason.
This was because Shi Xiaobai could sense that his companions were still emitting vital auras. From this, he could determine that their bodies had not turned into stone statues, but seemed to be sealed in ice. They were imprisoned by a layer of grayish-brown stone.
The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign did not kill them.
"Human, hand over the holy sword and This Sovereign will spare your life."
The black poodle floated to a spot not far from Shi Xiaobai. Its red eyes were filled with greed and eagerness. It could understand human speech, but it was unable to speak. Hence, its barks contained thoughts that could be converted into human speech, which it transmitted to Shi Xiaobai.
As it wanted Shi Xiaobai to hand over the holy sword, it needed to communicate with Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai and the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign looked each other in the eye. Suddenly, he took a few deep breaths and gradually calmed himself down.
Every time he was in danger, Shi Xiaobai was always very calm. However, when his companions were in mortal danger, Shi Xiaobai's heart was in turmoil.
However, Shi Xiaobai knew very well that he had to be even more calm at such times. If he lost his reason, he would not be able to protect anything!
Shi Xiaobai finally exhaled as his emotions slowly calmed down. He began to think calmly.
The Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign looked at Shi Xiaobai with a teasing gaze and barked, "Your companions are not dead yet, but in ten minutes, no one will be able to save them. Hand over the holy sword and This Sovereign can spare their lives."
When Shi Xiaobai heard this, a sneer suddenly suffused across his lips. He said coldly, "Do you think that compared to the holy sword, the lives of these fools are worth nothing?"
