"Ahhh, my head hurts, I can't take this anymore," the comntator said as he was looking at the tower.
Eccentric long couldn't help but let out a laugh as he saw what was going on.
Since it didn't take more than a few monts before every floor all the way to the ninth got lit up, all due to one person.
"How? Just how?" the comntator asked.
"Don't ask . The fact that he cleared all of it is a miracle in itself. Not to ntion the ti. Although the ti difference is pretty huge between outside and inside of the tower, it is still impressive to have cleared it in less than the ti it takes to blink," Eccentric Long said.
"How do you think he managed?" The Comntator asked.
"There is no need to ask one who knows not of the secrets of the tower, I can easily explain what happened," the voice ca from the tower of the Wisest Sun.
The comntator bowed as he asked, "Please grace us with your wisdom."
"Right, then. First of all, seeing as there are a lot of people failing in clearing such simple tasks, we'll probably end up with less than a hundredth of a percent of the overall cultivators, I don't wish to go down as the one with the most difficult and deadly challenge of the bunch, so the rules will be changed.
Those who clear up to the third floor instead of the fourth will be able to proceed forward," he said.
The cultivators who still have yet to attempt the tower all cheered in joy as the challenge beca easier.
The reaction of the Wisest Sun wasn't that of joy though.
"I'm disappointed, those before you had challenged themselves to clear more floors, yet you enjoyed the ease of the decreased difficulty? A true cultivator dares and defy heavens themselves.
Yet you feel relaxed when I who isn't even at the level of the heavens reduced your trial, what absurdity, such pathetic behavior," the Wisest Sun clicked his tongue in disapproval and instantly dropped the moral of everyone in the arena.
"Regardless of your unfortunate action, I will still keep my word of reducing the difficulty, as for why. It is because of the man who just cleared all the way to the ninth level in one go. He had actually achieved sothing that the likes of you will only be able to dream of. He solved questions that plagued even back in my days.
What he solved was far harder than the hardest challenge in the ninth floor, and that is why he cleared everything instantly." The wisest sun said.
"For now, it is pointless to keep this tower standing for long, since I already served its purpose of being cleared. Those of you who can clear the first three stages in the next hour will proceed forward. Anyone else will be considered to have forfeited. Including those who were too slow to enter the tower," the Wisest Sun said.
He then retreated back to his tower, clearly dissatisfied.
The comntator understood what just happened right now, the Wisest Sun was actually in a good mood when Shen Bao cleared the tower, however the reaction of the cultivators flipped that joy to that of disappointnt, instead of them being a bit dissatisfied with the lack of floors needed to challenge themselves and to sharpen their minds, they were happy with the opportunity to be more lax and more slothful.
Which in fact caused the trial that had no ti limit to be sothing that must be done in an hour at most.
This was basically an announcent for war.
Cultivators rushed forward, fighting among each other on who's entering through the gates of the tower first. So stepped on others, and so stabbed others, while so were fighting among each other as more cultivators funneled inside the tower to try and clear it.
With the panic ensuing, more cultivators lost their lives and more entered the tower without being fully ready, resulting in them getting imdiately disqualified.
Quite a dilemma…
The comntator couldn't help but sigh and scratch his head in confusion. He had nothing to say to explain what was going on, nor did he think he had the right to speak to dissolve this situation. Since the wisest Sun created this anarchy, he ant for it to remain.
So, the comntator had no right to speak. As he turned to Eccentric Long, the later shook his head, signaling that they shouldn't interfere or talk. The situation must proceed as the Wisest Sun had planned it. After all, he was clearly dissatisfied. What many seem to forget that to obtain the title of a Sun, one must have had his hands died in red from all the blood and death on them.
A small massacre of a few million cultivators is probably nothing in the eyes of soone that is as old as the very mountains that support the Beyond.

I soon found myself in a new area. It seems that this is the next trial zone. And all around was nothing but large trees spread around as if soone sprinkled them haphazardly all over the place.
The platform under still didn't allow to leave the area before the bracelet would shine. So, I waited a while to see what the purpose of the trial was.
The atmosphere of the land we're in was slightly worriso. Unlike the bright clear skies of the Beyond, this seed a bit darker and dimr with red muddy clouds all over the place.
There was no sun in the horizon and what lit the world seed to co from the skies themselves, although it failed at fully brightening it and only succeeded in creating shades and shadows that felt as if they were about to pounce on you if you were to get too close.
The entire area felt rather dreadful and eerie.
"Looks like the next trial is going to be slightly more interesting," I muttered. And that wasn't because of the eerie atmosphere, but the massive creature that was walking between the trees.
It was a giant, a very dreadful looking giant.
