nThe other challengers were stunned for a moment, but then, they laughed fearlessly,

n“What do you think you can do in a place like this? If you dare to use a spell to attack us, the tower of trials will immediately send us out together. With your spiritual power, you might have a chance to break through to the fourth level, right? Don’t tell me you want to die together with us?”

nLin An couldn’t help but be startled when he heard the cultivator’s words. The contestants in the tower of trials weren’t allowed to use spells? What kind of bullsh*t rule was that?

nHe also wondered why the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples had failed to explain all the rules before the cultivators had entered the tower.

nSeeing that Lin An was in a daze, the cultivators continued to mock him.

n“What? You don’t dare? Anyway, our chances of breaking through to the third level aren’t high. If you want the tower of trials to send you out along with us, we don’t mind.”

nImmediately, the cultivators burst into laughter.

nLin An looked at them for a while and realized that they were all tensed up. Despite their mocking words, they all seemed to be under immense pressure.

nHe instantly understood and turned his gaze towards a corner.

nThe few challengers’ furrowed brows relaxed, and they heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts.

nAlthough they had said that they weren’t afraid of getting kicked out together with Lin An, they still wanted to take the test properly in order to obtain a chance to enter the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect.

n…

nOutside the tower of trials, everyone was discussing the progress of the previous batch of challengers. However, the tower suddenly emitted a bright light, and a figure directly teleported to the outside.

n“Huh? What’s going on? I haven’t even completed one-third of the progress of the second level. How did I fail the challenge?”

n“This is the lowest record in the trial’s history. Looks like this guy won’t be entering the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect.”

nInstantly, everyone was shocked.

nHowever, after the challenger landed, his face was filled with anger and grievance, and he directly shouted at the few Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples who were maintaining order around the tower of trials, “Senior brothers and sisters, I want to file a complaint. Someone inside the tower was eating stinky tofu in front of me. It stunk, and it seriously affected my ability to concentrate on resisting the suppression of my soul. I request to retake the test!”

nWhen they heard the cultivator’s grievance, the other aspiring cultivators were surprised.

nThe few Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples were also a little stunned. After all, they had never encountered such an incident before. Under the suppression of the tower of trials, there had actually been a cultivator who had the leisure to eat smelly tofu?

nAfter the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples discussed among themselves for a moment, one disciple stepped forward and said, “The rules did not specify that cultivators may not eat during the trial. We do not consider this a serious interference factor. Moreover, you were only at the second level. To be bounced out by such a minor factor is proof that you are too weak.”

nWhoosh!

nAt that moment, the tower of trials emitted another ray of light, and it ejected another figure from the second level.

nThe second cultivator’s face was also full of anger and unwillingness. As soon as he landed, he did the same thing as the previously ejected cultivator and directly shouted at the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples, “Senior brothers and sisters, there’s someone inside who seriously interfered with my progress. I request to retake the test!”

nThe Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciple frowned and said coldly, “Eating doesn’t count.”

n“Eating?” The cultivator looked at the cultivators in astonishment and immediately said angrily, “Eating stinky tofu is one thing, but that person even added something into it. That smell was worse than horse sh*t!”

nAs the cultivator spoke, he seemed to relive the smell, and he immediately squatted to one side and gagged desperately.

nWhoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

nSuddenly, the body of the tower of trials shone brightly. Other than Lin An’s wooden token, the other wooden tokens were all absorbed by the tower.

nAfterward, a large group of cultivators was sent out at the same time, and their faces were full of grievance and resentment.

nBefore they could finish speaking, they all squatted down to retch.

n“The second level stinks more than a public toilet that has never been cleaned before! Senior brothers and sisters, we request a reassessment!” A few cultivators shouted weakly at the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples.

nAt that moment, Lin An was standing in the tower and looking at the people who had been teleported out. He held a bottle of medicine in his hand, and a wicked smile formed on his face.

n“Hmph! The hundred lottery coins I spent on this bottle of super-invincible stinky tofu and flavored water were good value. It can increase the smell of stinky tofu by a thousand times! Didn’t you want to fight me? Well, I chose to stink you to death!”

nLin An then stored the flavored water in the success rate system’s storage space. After entering the third level of the tower of trials, he took off the mask that he had put on his face to isolate the smell.

nHe had also drawn the mask from the lottery, and without it, he would not have been able to withstand the stinky tofu’s smell.

nAfter Lin An entered the third level, he experienced a majestic pressure that pressed against his body.

nAs Lin An advanced step by step, the suppressive force felt like a raging wave, and it continuously suppressed his body.

n“Look, isn’t he suppressed! How did he get suppressed again not long after he stepped into the third level? It was clearly very easy for him on the second level.”

n“Looks like he pretended that it was easy on the second level, but in the end, he couldn’t continue to pretend on the third level.”

n“But with his peak golden core stage cultivation, he should be qualified to enter the third level. As long as he walks a little further, he should be able to get the chance to enter the next level.”

nThe crowd outside the tower saw that Lin An was stuck on the third level, and they discussed the situation. Some cultivators felt it was a pity that Lin An appeared on the verge of failure, while some were happy to see that he was struggling.

nLin An stood on the third level of the tower of trials and felt his legs tremble. He gritted his teeth and took out the soul-strengthening liquid from the success rate system’s storage space.

nHe quickly opened the lid and drank it.

nDing! Congratulations to the host for consuming the soul-strengthening liquid. Your soul strength has increased by 120%!

nBoom!

nLin An felt a powerful force spread out from his body. The force counteracted the suffocating pressure on his body, and he felt extremely relaxed again. The new feeling was basically no different from his experience outside the tower of trials.

nThe people outside the tower watched as Lin An’s wooden token, which was already on the verge of collapse, suddenly returned to its path. They were all shocked and stared at Lin An’s wooden token in shock.

n“What… What’s going on?”

n“In just a few breaths time, his soul power has actually become more than twice as strong!”

n“What happened? The tower of trials had clearly suppressed him, but now he’s suddenly exerting force. Was he pretending to be weak, or has he broken through again?”

n“This is too exaggerated. Look at that person. It’s as if he can’t feel the suppression of the tower of trials at all on the third level!”

nThe exclamations that rang out from outside the tower showed the astonishment of the other cultivators.

nHowever, Lin An slowly walked up to the fourth level of the tower of trials with a heavy expression.

nThe reason why Lin An’s expression was so heavy was that after drinking the spirit strengthening liquid, he had faintly sensed that there was another cultivator’s aura on a high level of the tower!

nLin An wondered who the cultivator was, and how he had made it to the seventh level of the tower of trials!
