Chapter 508 - 494: Haotian Tower
Seventy-eight disciples were all stupefied, the silence so deep you could hear a pin drop.
Because the place where they found themselves now was no longer inside the maze, but rather in a small space, incredibly vast, desolate and uninhabited, emanating an aura of desolation.
The most astonishing thing was that in the center of this space a three-story pagoda appeared, emitting a black glow, piercing the clouds, and possessing an exceptionally majestic aura, with an unknown purpose.
And in front of the pagoda, there stood nine figures, each emitting the overwhelming suppression of the Emperor Martial Realm, terrifyingly formidable, merely standing there casually could bring intense pressure to Xiao Ye and the others.
"Elder Tian Jiu!"
Xiao Ye’s gaze sharpened, his eyes settling on one of the nine figures—that person was none other than Elder Tian Jiu who had previously been outside the maze.
"Xiao Ye, you did well, actually the first disciple to pass the first test, with a really impressive inner strength, indeed you haven’t let this old man down."
Elder Tian Jiu cracked a smile, his voice powered by his strength as he spoke to Xiao Ye, looking quite excited.
Xiao Ye also smiled slightly; in the first stage of the assessment, he was the first to resist the temptation of King Martial Combat Techniques, so in a way, he actually ranked first in that stage.
The other disciples who participated in the assessment gradually quieted down, taking a closer look at the three-story pagoda in front of them, their faces filled with puzzlement. Could their next assessment be inside this pagoda?
