"Fuck! What's taking him so long?! He's been on the fourth floor for 2 hours now!" The spectators were getting impatient, as most of them had only expected to wait at most another half an hour before Yuan got kicked out of the Sword Pagoda.
Even Long Chen couldn't help but wonder what was going on inside.
'What's he doing inside? The third floor forces one to use divine sense due to the restriction, so it wouldn't make sense to prolong the fights. Even if he's not using his divine sense, the guardian should be attacking him relentlessly, giving him no time to rest. To spend so much time on one floor, there's no way he's getting past the fourth floor!'
After another hour of waiting, the sword light on the fourth floor finally moved to the fifth floor.
This shocked everyone there.
"He actually managed to beat the fourth floor after spending three whole hours there?!"
'No way…" Long Chen, who knew very well about the restrictions, was even more baffled than the others.
As someone who climbed to the fifth floor, he knew better than anyone there how unforgiving the Sword Pagoda was, and for Yuan to endure three hours on the fourth floor was nothing short of a miracle.
'What happened in there? I really want to see it!' Long Chen's hands curled up into fists.
"Oh? If it isn't the Silver Dragon. Why are you just standing out here? Aren't you going to challenge the Sword Pagoda?" A voice that Long Chen recognized suddenly resounded.
He turned around to see a group of individuals approaching him from a distance.
Of course, just like Long Chen, they were all from the upper heavens.
"I already went inside," he said in a calm voice, trying his best to hide his emotions.
"Really? Then why are you still here? Hmm? Wow! There's someone on the fifth floor!" These people finally noticed the single light in the Sword Pagoda.
"Why is there only one person inside?" One of them asked.
"Because I am not allowing anyone to step foot inside until that person comes out." Long Chen said, and he continued, "This includes you lot."
"You know who's inside the Sword Pagoda?"
"I don't really know him since we've just met a few hours ago." Long Chen shook his head. "However, he's definitely talented."
"Unbelievable! Did the Silver Dragon just praise someone from this lowly place?!"
"I can't wait to tell the others about this! This is an unprecedented event!"
"I doubt they'll even believe us!"
This group of people started laughing.
Long Chen sneered, "You may mock him for his background, but none of you can compare to this person who came from the very background that you're currently laughing at."
