Chapter 807
He Is Really !
"Has the Dark Palace opened..."
On the other side of the Old District, the Assassin wandering on the street suddenly looked back.
He looked at that grand bouquet blooming in the sky, a glimmer flashing in his eyes, but after hesitating for a moment, he still sighed helplessly...
"Forget it... better not go for now."
The Assassin's eyes were somewhat desolate. Having just suffered continuous blows, he simply had no mood to snatch any [Privilege].
One must know, the appearance of the "Dark Palace" would inevitably attract a large batch of powerhouses who were confident in their own strength. If he went to that eye of the storm gathering a large number of heaven-chosen at this time, he was afraid his Dao Heart would truly collapse.
He needed to re-examine his own cultivation, and he also needed time to rebuild his confidence...
He took a deep breath, holding the short sword in his hand, step by step disappearing into the dimness.
In the "Dark Palace", one figure after another rapidly sped by!!
There were no lights in the passage leading underground. It was like the esophagus of a giant beast leading to the abyss, mysterious and deep.
After the young powerhouses from the major domains entered, their vigilance rapidly filled up, guarding against the dangers that might exist in the passage on the one hand, and guarding against the participants beside them who were also here to compete for the [Privilege] on the other.
But at this crucial juncture, the crowd wouldn't easily attack each other. After all, they didn't know what the situation in the "Dark Palace" exactly was yet. Making a move now had too many variables.
After the crowd successively rushed out of the corridor, they arrived at an open area. The surroundings were pitch-black, and the walls and ground were bare, like a closed circular cage.
The ranks of these people who came here were not low, and they more or less had some night vision abilities, but they couldn't find a path to continue forward. For a time, they were all scattered in confusion in the rotunda, looking around.
"Didn't they say there is a [Privilege] here? Where is the Privilege?"
"I don't know... I don't see a road either, nor are there any other guides. Are we just going to wait here dryly?"
"If we continue waiting like this, I'm afraid there will only be more and more people attracted over, and our First to Arrive, First to Benefit advantage will be gone!"
"Perhaps this is what the Tower to Heaven wants?"
"..."
The crowd whispered, but there were also those who couldn't wait any longer.
This place was originally found by Tu Tian and Fudi. Not being able to enter right away originally made them extremely annoyed, and coupled with the continuous stream of competitors following behind from the back, they became increasingly impatient in their hearts.
"Damn it... until when are we supposed to wait?"
"I've perceived it, this place occupies an extremely large area underground. It should be a palace extending downwards, with several floors... The [Privilege] might be below."
"Whatever, let's smash through this floor first and then talk!"
Tu Tian gritted his teeth, the strength all over his body surging. He drew the long staff from his back, and his Fifth-Tier Aura suddenly spread!
The Aura fluctuations of the Path of Force instantly attracted the attention of all other participants. After realizing what the other party wanted to do, everyone's hearts also rose, nervously preparing to deal with the subsequent changes.
However, right when Tu Tian raised the long staff high, preparing to smash it down with a bang, a voice calmly came from the darkness:
"Try smashing one?"
His palm instantly stiffened in the air.
Smack—!
As a beam of light projected from the ceiling of the rotunda, a figure wearing a fluorescent robe stood expressionlessly in the center of the rotunda. A massive "06" was written on his chest, his eyes coldly looking at Tu Tian.
The appearance of the referee instantly made the entire rotunda fall into Dead Silence.
Chen Ling walked slowly to Tu Tian, his eyes narrowed, and spoke indifferently with the posture of an absolute superior:
"I haven't announced the rules yet... Did I tell you to move?"
Dense sweat seeped out from Tu Tian's forehead, his face somewhat pale... As a seed cultivated single-handedly by the Dragon-Strangling Warriors, he grew up amidst strict teachings since childhood. Rules, order, and the regulations taught by the Teacher were deeply branded in the bottom of his heart.
People who grew up in this kind of environment were naturally in awe of rules, because in their subconsciousness, rules simply couldn't be broken.
And in this struggle, the referee was the embodiment of rules and order. Although Tu Tian was Fifth-Tier, and although his strength was formidable, at this moment he still couldn't give birth to thoughts of defying the rules, and silently lowered the long staff in his hand...
The other heaven-chosen from the official organizations of the Realms present were also the same. They all kept quiet and looked at Chen Ling, remaining completely still.
The atmosphere instantly became incomparably oppressive!
Instead, it was the experts from unorthodox backgrounds walking among the folk like Chen Ling, who didn't fear the authority of the rules too much, and someone couldn't help but speak:
"This referee... didn't you say there is a [Privilege] in the 'Dark Palace'? Where is the [Privilege]?"
Chen Ling glanced at him and spoke slowly:
"Wait a moment, I will explain."
Chen Ling didn't say how long to wait, and under this oppressive atmosphere, everyone didn't dare to ask more, merely obediently standing in place waiting...
Even if they racked their brains, they wouldn't have thought that the "referee" wearing the fluorescent robe, possessing extreme majesty and oppressiveness, was actually a participant just like them.
Seeing this scene, Chen Ling also found it somewhat amusing. If after the struggle ended, these people knew they were played around in circles by a Fourth Order Thespian, what kind of expression would they have?
In the original rules, naturally there wasn't this "waiting" segment, but Chen Ling felt that since the urn was set up here, it would be too much of a loss if he didn't deceive a few more people to enter... The more people entering the Dark Palace, the more people he calculated against. Only this way could he reduce the number of people in the final stage to the greatest extent.
Tap—tap—tap...
In the deathly silent rotunda, everyone didn't dare to move recklessly, and could only watch Chen Ling pace back and forth with his hands behind his back...
Time trickled by minute by minute. More and more people were attracted by the opening of the "Dark Palace". The rotunda that originally only had a dozen or so people gradually became somewhat crowded. Roughly looking, nearly fifty people had already been "deceived" inside!
"What's the situation? Why is a group of people standing here like posts?"
Jian Changsheng, who hurriedly rushed over, saw the oppressive scene in the rotunda, a flash of doubt passing through his eyes, and asked in a low voice.
"We are waiting for the referee to announce the rules... he said we have to wait until there are a bit more people." A participant beside him who arrived earlier explained softly.
"Good thing, good thing, then we also made it in time."
Jian Changsheng let out a long sigh of relief.
Coming with him was also Sun Bumian. He was sizing up the surrounding participants with interest. Ultimately, those eyes wearing small Round Sunglasses swept over the "referee" strolling in the rotunda...
He suddenly froze.
Immediately after, he poked Jian Changsheng beside him with his arm, and spoke in a low voice:
"Look, isn't that the guy from just now..."
"What?"
Jian Changsheng followed his gaze, and only then saw the referee surrounded by the crowd. Seeing that face and the "06" logo on his chest, his mouth gradually widened, displaying a 'seen a ghost' expression!
"This fucking isn't... he is really fking awesome!!!"
