However, to everyone's surprise, the Runic Matrix didn't change at all. It was as if Linlong's actions were permitted by the Runic Matrix.
Perhaps it wasn't time yet. Some people thought to themselves.
However, after a few breaths, there was still no change.
What was going on? Why was the Runic Matrix treating them differently? Everyone was dumbfounded.
Murong Xue heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the Runic Matrix hadn't punished her or Linlong.
She turned to Linlong and said, "Senior Brother Lin, congratulations on entering the second floor. However, let's hurry up and meditate. After all, time waits for no one."
Indeed, time waits for no one. If they couldn't comprehend anything, Mr. Pei's wisp of soul wouldn't accept them and would chase them out.
Unexpectedly, Linlong smiled and said, "Junior Sister Murong, the third floor is easier to comprehend than the second. Let's go to the third floor."
"But Senior Brother Lin, I haven't even passed the second floor. There's no way I can reach the third floor." Murong Xue looked confused.
"Just follow me." With that, Linlong held Murong Xue's hand and led her towards the staircase leading to the third floor.
"This Linlong, he actually lucked out and didn't get punished by the Runic Matrix." Yang Jian, who was on the third floor, was equally shocked.
When he saw that Linlong wanted to go straight to the third floor, a mocking smile appeared on his face. "Idiot, do you think this is your home? Do you think you can go to the third floor just because you want to?"
The way he saw it, Linlong must have lucked out and wasn't punished by the Runic Matrix. However, it was impossible for him to reach the third floor without first comprehending anything.
"The Runic Matrix might have let you off just now, but this time, you're trying to break the rules. The Runic Matrix will definitely give you a huge surprise!" Yang Jian smiled sinisterly.
When he thought about how Linlong might be sent flying out of the building by the Runic Matrix, he was indescribably happy.
The people outside, especially the instructors, were all stomping their feet in anger. Linlong and Murong Xue had just been lucky enough to escape punishment, but now Linlong was bringing Murong Xue along to court disaster. How could they not be angry?
As the crowd raged, Linlong led Murong Xue up the stairs to the third floor.
Murong Xue initially wanted to object and stop Lin Long's impractical actions. However, when Lin Long grabbed her hand, her heart began to race wildly. Only when she reached the top of the stairs did she realize that she should stop Lin Long.
However, it was too late now, so she could only follow Linlong step by step.
Logically speaking, she should be very nervous at this time, but seeing Linlong holding her hand in such a domineering manner, the sweetness in her heart overcame her nervousness.
If only Senior Brother Lin could hold his hand like this for the rest of his life.
Just like that, the two of them walked up step by step. Their movements were neither slow nor fast, as if they were walking up the stairs of their own home.
Why hasn't the Runic Array moved? Yang Jian's face turned ugly when he saw that there was still no movement even after the two of them had walked halfway up the stairs.
The people outside were also surprised.
From their point of view, Linlong and Murong Xue's actions were completely provoking Mr. Pei's soul. This was something that the Runic Array could not tolerate.
Generally speaking, anyone who stepped onto the stairs would be punished. Who would have thought that there would still be no movement after walking for so long?
What on earth was going on?
Everyone had the same question in their hearts. While they were wondering, Linlong and Murong Xue actually arrived at the third floor unscathed.
This was unbelievable!
Everyone cried out in surprise when they saw Linlong and Murong Xue really arrive at the third floor.
They didn't expect Linlong to be able to do something that no one else could.
What are you so proud of? The Runic Array is only letting you off the hook for now. We'll teach you a lesson later! Yang Jian was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
"Dean, Instructor Ye Hongyi, what on earth is going on?" Outside the loft, an instructor asked Wei Zhanpeng and Ye Hongyi in shock.
"This is too surprising. We don't know what's going on either!" The two of them shook their heads.
Indeed, they couldn't understand what had happened today. Yang Jian was able to enter the third floor, but was suddenly restricted. Then, Linlong was able to enter the second floor, and then dragged Murong Xue to the third floor without even trying to comprehend anything. Everything was completely illogical. How could they possibly understand?
"Are you saying that we don't know what's going to happen next?" one of the instructors couldn't help but ask.
Wei Zhanpeng and Ye Hongyi could only nod when they heard this question.
"I hope they'll have their own good fortune," Wei Zhanpeng said.
"Senior Brother Lin, let's hurry up and meditate on the ground," Murong Xue hurriedly said to Linlong when she regained her senses.
The way she saw it, the fact that the Runic Array allowed her and Linlong to enter the third floor was already a great blessing. If they didn't know what was good for them and angered Mr. Pei's soul, they'd be in trouble.
Unexpectedly, Linlong shook his head. "Junior Sister Murong, you're my junior sister. How could I let you sit on the ground without even a prayer mat?"
"It's just that there aren't any prayer mats here. The same goes for Senior Brother Yang Jian," said Murong Xue.
As soon as she came up, she saw Yang Jian meditating in a corner.
Yang Jian clearly didn't have a prayer mat beneath him.
"Yang Jian? How can he possibly compare to my junior sister? "Linlong smiled calmly.
When he heard Linlong's words and saw that Linlong didn't care about him at all, Yang Jian was infuriated.
He stood up and roared at Linlong, "Linlong, don't be so smug. I'm afraid you'll be kicked out of the third floor in a moment!"
The way he saw it, even someone as talented as him had been restricted by the Runic Array's violet aura after entering the third floor. How could Linlong, who'd only just arrived, do anything?
However, as soon as he finished speaking, something completely unexpected happened. A force that came out of nowhere suddenly acted on his body.
This force was so strong that he couldn't resist at all. With a thud, he fell to his knees in Linlong's direction.
Although Yang Jian knew that the Runic Array was forcing him to kneel, he just happened to be kneeling in Linlong's direction. How could he tolerate it?
Hence, as soon as he knelt, he immediately tried to stand up. However, he couldn't move at all. He couldn't even kneel in a different direction.
This situation made Yang Jian so anxious that his entire body broke out in a cold sweat.
For a moment, he regretted cursing at someone for no reason.
"What's going on? Don't tell me the loft doesn't allow cursing? Is Yang Jian being punished by the Runic Array because of this?"
The crowd outside was also dumbfounded.
Just as the crowd was in a daze, the third floor suddenly changed. Two prayer mats, one silver and one gold, suddenly appeared in mid-air, then slowly descended in front of Linlong and Murong Xue.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked again.
That was because the golden and silver praying mats represented the highest glory.
Linlong and Murong Xue were actually able to make the Runic Array produce these two colored prayer mats. Could it be that Sir Pei's spirit saw them in a different light?
For a moment, this question popped into everyone's minds.
