His red robes were like fire!
It was as if there was an invisible flame on this person's body that could burn the eyes of all those who looked at him and force them to lower their heads before him.
His looks were average and he was not handsome. His body was not strong either, but as he walked towards them, there was an indescribable feeling that rose in the hearts of all those who were looking at him.
His black hair fell over his shoulders as Ye Wang walked towards them slowly.
He did not have Wu Sen's gloom, but his calm demeanor was even scarier than Wu Sen's. He did not have Chen Chong's charisma, but even if he was alone, he still exuded a presence that could suppress everything else.
He also did not pretend to be mysterious like the young man from Black Mountain Tribe, but as he walked towards them, his strength and his name gave off a mysterious feeling that far surpassed that of the young man in black robes.
He was mysterious because he was Ye Wang. He was the most outstanding person of his generation in Wind Stream Tribe. He was the most arrogant person in the entire area. He was also known as the future powerful Berserker of the Transcendence Realm!
He walked towards them calmly like a king. There was no need for him to talk to anyone. There would be countless people who would ignore Wu Sen and Chen Chong. They would instinctively lower their heads and make way for him.
There were no sounds of discussion. The moment he appeared, all the sounds fell silent. Even when he walked to the center of the field and sat down cross-legged, the silence was still not broken.
After a long while, soft conversations could be heard in the area, as if they were slowly waking up.
"Heh, you saw the important person, right? If you can see Ye Wang, then our trip to this place won't be a waste." The honest-looking young man beside Su Ming spoke softly with envy and satisfaction in his eyes.
Su Ming was silent. After a long while, he nodded his head gently.
There were more people who came after Ye Wang. After an hour, all the people in the area had arrived. At that moment, the sky suddenly darkened.
As the clouds rumbled, a shocking thunder roared and shook the entire area. Most of the people in the area were shocked. They lifted their heads and saw the clouds in the sky rapidly gathering together. In the blink of an eye, they fused together and turned into a person made of clouds that seemed to be able to support the sky and earth!
There was a man in purple robes sitting cross-legged on the head of the humanoid cloud. That person was the Elder of Wind Stream Tribe, Jing Nan!
He sat there cross-legged, not looking down. Instead, he was looking at the tall mountain not far away. He was looking at the towering mountain that pierced through the clouds. He could only see half of the mountain!
"This mountain is the most important treasure in Wind Stream Tribe!"
"It has been passed down from the ancestors of the Berserkers and is the foundation of Wind Stream Tribe. Without this mountain, perhaps there would be no Wind Stream Tribe! "The mountain you see is not complete. That is just the tip of the mountain … That is the real tip of Wind Stream Mountain!"
"There is a strange beast sealed at the peak of this mountain. This beast has been in hibernation for tens of thousands of years and has yet to awaken … Perhaps it will never awaken … This mountain is filled with might, and its might is like a pressure that surrounds the entire mountain. The higher you go, the stronger the pressure!
There are two hundred and eighteen steps leading to the top of the mountain. This is the first trial! "
"The rules are the same as before. There is no time limit. All those who take part in the first trial, take the plate and search for a path leading to the top of the mountain. Then, based on the number of steps you have taken, you will be ranked.
"This is the first time many of you have come here. To ensure fairness, I will tell you that the pressure on this mountain is the strongest at night!
"Now, I will open the seal on this mountain. All of you, enter quickly!" As Jing Nan spoke, he lifted his right hand and swung it towards the giant mountain.
The moment he swung his arm, the giant cloud giant let out a shocking roar towards the sky. It took huge strides towards the mountain and lifted its two gigantic arms, as if it wanted to tear the sky and earth apart, and tore the mountain apart.
The moment it tore the mountain apart, the sky and earth rumbled. A gigantic crack appeared out of nowhere in the sky. The crack spread to both sides vertically, as if there was an invisible picture screen outside the mountain. Now that the picture screen was torn apart, the real scene within was revealed.
It was still the same tall mountain, but it was different from how Su Ming had seen it previously. Instead, it was filled with black fog that rose into the sky. The fog also made some of the tribe members turn pale and instinctively took a few steps back. It was as if the thing within the crack was not a mountain, but a gigantic mysterious beast.
At the same time, an indescribable pressure spread out from the torn crack. It was like a violent gust of wind sweeping through the area, lifting the long hair of countless people. Some of the tribe members even turned pale and instinctively took a few steps back. It was as if the thing within the crack was not a mountain, but a gigantic mysterious beast.
The moment the crack was torn open, a few indistinct shadows quickly solidified beside the giant cloud giant in the sky and turned into eight people!
Shi Hai was one of the eight people. All of them had shocking levels of cultivation. When they appeared, they bit the tip of their tongues and coughed out a mouthful of blood. Their blood fused together and turned into a complicated pattern. As it flashed with a red light, it charged towards the crack and seemed to imprint itself on the mountain of fog within the crack.
The mountain that was surrounded by clouds and fog rumbled at that moment. The fog tumbled upwards and revealed the ancient stairs at the foot of the mountain.
"Once you enter the mountain, if your plate leaves your body for even a little bit, it will disappear. You will also be disqualified and forced to leave the mountain. "This is also the method for you to choose to stop moving forward and leave the mountain if you can't handle it. "At the same time, this plate will also record the number of steps you've taken and display it outside.
"Now, go in!" The person who spoke was Shi Hai, one of the eight people. He roared at the crowd beneath him.
A person flew up and turned into a long arc that charged towards the crack. That person was Ye Wang, who was dressed in red robes! After him, Wu Sen was the second person to charge in. Chen Chong was right behind him. Slowly, a large number of people from the tribes who participated in the first stage rushed in.
Bei Ling, Lei Chen, Wu La, Si Kong, and even Bai Ling were among them. Once they entered the crack, they searched for a staircase that no one took and disappeared into it.
Whenever a staircase was chosen, a gust of fog would immediately descend and cover the staircase.
Su Ming did not choose to move alone. Instead, he chose to enter the crack with a large group of people. The moment he stepped into the crack, he immediately felt that this place was different from the outside world. There was a pressure in this place. That pressure made him feel as if there was a pair of invisible hands pressing down on his body, making him feel uneasy.
Many of the staircase paths before him were shrouded in fog. It was clear that someone had already entered the crack. Su Ming was not in a hurry. Instead, he ran into the distance. There were quite a number of people like him in this place. Most of them were searching for the staircase paths.
That was why the foot of the mountain did not follow the rules. Some of the staircase paths seemed to be shorter than the others. These paths were usually fought over quickly by the people. Whoever took the first step on the staircase would be the one to take it.
Su Ming did not join them. Instead, he went to a spot further away. There were a few paths there. He stood there and fell into deep thought. Just as he was about to move forward, he suddenly turned his head and looked to his right. His pupils shrank slightly.
The young man from Black Mountain Tribe, who was dressed in black beast skins and was pretending to be mysterious, still had most of his face covered. He walked towards Su Ming coldly and did not even spare a glance at him. He walked up a flight of stairs.
Su Ming watched as the young man disappeared into the path and was shrouded by the fog coming down from the mountain. He averted his gaze and walked towards a normal staircase. The moment he stepped on the first step, he felt the entire mountain tremble. At the same time, the plate on his chest let out a wave of heat, but it did not seep into Su Ming's body. Instead, it continued emitting heat.
Then, he was surrounded by a large amount of fog. He couldn't see to his sides or behind him. The only thing he could see was the faintly discernible winding staircase in front of him, as well as the dim sun in the vast sky.
It was quiet all around him. It was so quiet that it gave people the impression that they were the only ones in the mountain.
Su Ming took a deep breath. He did not immediately move forward. Instead, he felt the pressure in the place. Once he got used to it, he lifted his feet and walked forward with determination and determination in his eyes.
At that moment, he did not know that once all of them stepped into the crack, the crack in the world outside was slowly closing up. Shi Hai and the other seven people landed in the sky and sat down cross-legged at the corners of the field.
The Elder of Wind Stream Tribe, Jing Nan, also dispersed the giant of clouds and landed on the field beside Mo Sang. An invisible wave of air surrounded the two of them, preventing anyone from investigating them.
There were still hundreds of people in the field, and they were all staring at the nine giant statues around them.
Lines of words gradually appeared on the nine statues.
First place: Ye Wang, 97 steps.
Second place: Wu Sen, 51 steps.
Third place: Chen Chong, 47 steps.
Fourth place: Bi Su, 46 steps.
… 103rd place: Mo Su, 6 steps. All the people who took part in the first stage could see the number of steps they had taken clearly due to their plates.
"As expected, the first place is Ye Wang. 97 steps. He's so much higher than the person in second place … Look, it changed again. 115 steps. How long has it been? It's too fast!"
"Who is this Bi Su? I've never heard of him. He's not from Wind Stream Tribe, but he's ranked so high in the initial stage! I heard that Ye Wang managed to get to 803 steps in the last test. I wonder how far he'll go this time. The higher he goes, the harder it is. I heard that no one has ever managed to get past 930 steps! "
Jing Nan, the Elder of Wind Stream Tribe, also looked at the statue beside him. He looked at it together with Mo Sang. There was a smile on his face as he looked at Mo Su's name.
"Mo Sang, he's Su Ming, right? But judging by his rank, it'll be very difficult for him to get into the top 40. How about this? I'll relax my requirements. As long as he gets into the top 60, he'll pass."
Mo Sang did not speak. He looked at Mo Su's name on the statue and remained silent. There was a hint of anticipation hidden deep within his eyes.
