Chapter 182: Life 68, Age 64, Martial Emperor 1
After passing the final barrier, we were teleported somewhere new. While we were still standing in the middle of a cloud bank, our visibility had improved, and we could now see up to a dozen meters away.
In the middle of the clearing, ChenKun stood rigidly with his hands clasped behind his back. To his left, Yan’s group smiled and waited for us to join them.
We walked over, but just as I was about to ask how things had gone for his group, Yan shook his head to silence me and motioned in the direction we had come from.
Behind us, there were six arches. Three, including the one we had just exited, shone with a brilliant white light. Two glowed dimly, and one was completely black. Piecing everything together, I could guess the three bright gates were from the three groups that had successfully passed the test. The dark gate was for a group that had failed.
We stood there quietly as we waited for the final result.
When a second gate faded and turned black, Ning ChenKun’s face twisted with anger. He didn’t make a sound, but the tension in his body was nearing a breaking point.
When the final gate flared with bright white light, everyone’s tension was released, but Ning ChenKun still didn’t look happy.
Only one of the male subordinates stumbled out of the gate. No attendants followed him.
Ning ChenKun didn’t say anything to the man. He just flicked a sleeve and turned around to face the new gate that had just appeared behind us.
