By now, everyone in the Misty Rain Tower knew that a young man named Zhao Huai had arrived.
This young man's behavior was quite strange. Every time he did something, many people would soon follow suit.
In the past three months, Zhao Huai had explored every corner of the Misty Rain Tower. If not for Zhang Tianyuan being out on a mission, Zhao Huai would have long rushed to the area of the third - level students to wait for him.
It had to be said that Zhao Huai's abilities were truly outstanding among those in the Misty Rain Tower.
It was said that Zhao Huai had once encountered the Meng father - and - son pair. Those two stewards were always very strict with new students. Since Zhao Huai had the surname Zhao, they had planned to secretly trip him up. However, the final outcome was quite tragic. Steward Meng had locked Zhao Huai in the detention room, and because he was not at ease, the Meng father - and - son pair had personally escorted him there.
But less than a moment after entering the detention room, that elegant young man in white clapped his hands and walked out of the detention room.
Later, someone found that the two stewards in the detention room had one with his beard shaved off and the other with his head shaved bald. That wasn't the scariest part. Someone had even stripped the two stewards naked. If not for the patrolling people discovering them later, Steward Meng and his son might have been dried into mummies by the wind.
When the two stewards were taken out, they refused to mention who had done this to them.
But those with sharp eyes could notice that later on, the two stewards would always avoid Zhao Huai from afar.
The fact that the stewards were afraid of a new student was quite a rare thing in the Misty Rain Tower.
After waiting for a long time, the time for the trial finally arrived.
The reason Zhao Huai was willing to stay here for so long was to wait for the teleportation formation to open. Then, he would go to the second - level trial ground in person to look for his younger sister again.
On this day, a large number of people came, but no one dared to form a team with the young man named Zhao Huai.
The second - level students also showed particular respect to Zhao Huai, simply because he had the surname Zhao.
Since most of the third - level students had been taken out by their tutors on some simple missions, Kong Shishuang had only heard that a young man with the surname Zhao had come to the Misty Rain Tower but had never had the chance to come back and meet him.
During the teleportation, the second - level students went first. When the last group of second - level students had entered the light formation and were about to be teleported, a white figure suddenly broke a hole in the light formation and then stood inside it.
"That young man?"
"How is that possible?"
Even someone as powerful as Zhao Shuning had never been able to break a hole in the light formation when she was in it. But this young man had done it so easily.
"Elder He, don't stop. Hurry! Once the teleportation formation starts, it can't be stopped."
Elder He closed his eyes. That kid didn't even take a map and dared to barge into the second - level students' group. Was he crazy?
Immediately, everyone's vision went black, and they all lost consciousness again.
At this moment, Zhao Shuning saw the light formation in front of her suddenly emit a bright light.
Everyone was teleported to the lowest level. At this time, Zhao Shuning was at the fifth height. Seeing the abnormal fluctuations in the teleportation formation, she quickly took the opportunity to inject her spiritual power into the formation. Then, the formation began to flash with an unusual light. Zhao Shuning smiled and leaped into the teleportation formation.
The Huodou that had been lurking beside Zhao Shuning saw this and immediately leaped after her, following closely behind.
Just when Zhao Shuning was glad to have gotten rid of that annoying little Huodou, she turned around and saw the Huodou standing beside her, grinning stupidly at her.
"You—"
The Huodou saw Zhao Shuning reach out her hand and immediately reached out its own, making a high - five gesture with her.
"So annoying."
If she showed up at the Misty Rain Tower with a Huodou, the stewards and managers there would surely be on high alert. The Huodou was an ancient demon beast. The Misty Rain Tower had stood for so many years, but its people had never seen a demon beast before. Moreover, the Huodou was on par with the Teng Snake.
Just as Zhao Shuning was about to scold the Huodou, she saw that the usually honest Huodou now had its ears standing straight up. Its body began to tremble involuntarily, and then, looking in a certain direction, it suddenly knelt down.
The might of the beast realm?
The Huodou was an ancient demon beast! How could there be a creature in this Dark Swamp Land that could make the Huodou show such a terrified expression?
But Zhao Shuning knew that this was the might of the beast realm.
The creature that had appeared at the lowest level and could make the Huodou act like this was at least a divine beast.
A divine beast? It was impossible. When she had come here without a map, she had carefully scouted every corner of the lowest level. She dared to say that there definitely wasn't a divine beast there. As an alchemist, if a divine beast had appeared, she would have been able to sense it.
So, the only explanation for the Huodou's current state was that the divine beast had just appeared recently.
Just as Zhao Shuning was about to go out to investigate, a dazzling light appeared in front of her.
Looking at the still - terrified Huodou beside her, Zhao Shuning took a deep breath, then took out the Qiankun Bag from behind her and stuffed the Huodou into it.
Outside the light formation, five purple - gold rocs were circling. Zhao Shuning waved her hand, bidding them a final farewell.
The Qiankun Bag on her waist kept shaking.
Zhao Shuning was furious and roared, "If you keep moving around, I'll throw you out."
The Huodou seemed to understand and didn't dare to move anymore.
Finally, she could go back. Zhao Shuning had been trapped in this Dark Swamp Land for almost a year and a half. Even with her strong will, she had almost suffocated here.
The Huodou in the Qiankun Bag had always brought her all sorts of messy things every day, making her vomit. Over time, now even if she saw something more disgusting, she might be able to calmly sit there and eat.
The teleportation formation had teleported all the students to their corresponding trial grounds. Just when the teachers on - site breathed a sigh of relief, a dazzling light slowly appeared in the center of the high platform.
The teachers quickly covered their eyes. After the light faded, they looked up at the high platform.
There, a little girl slowly appeared in front of everyone.
When they saw the little girl's appearance clearly, all the tutors on - site were shocked.
"Zhao Shuning!"
It was actually Zhao Shuning!
