Dragon Hidden in the Sky

"We're lucky!" Ye Qing said.

"It's not just luck, I have a gut feeling! You might be no weaker than me!" Cao Luo said calmly. "Get up, I'll help you down!"

Ye Qing didn't stand on ceremony and got up from the ground.

Cao Luo helped Ye Qing up, and Ye Qing sensed the spatial fluctuations around him. A look of shock gradually appeared in his eyes as he said, "You have a unique characteristic... a spatial characteristic?"

Cao Luo did not deny it. He nodded and said, "This spatial fluctuation can ensure that our conversation is not overheard by others."

Ye Qing was taken aback for a moment and said, "The conversation won't be heard by others?"

"Why did you come to challenge this Ascension Tower?" Cao Luo asked. "Judging from your personality, I feel that you are not someone who likes to be watched and talked about."

“Challenging the Ascension Tower will attract the attention of powerful forces!” Ye Qing said.

"You're lying!" Cao Luo shook his head and said, "You don't want to enter the Heavenly Court at all! With your talent, how could you possibly be content to be subordinate to someone else!"

Ye Qing frowned. Was this guy testing him?

"You're overthinking it. I'm just a person from a lower civilization. Only by entering the Heavenly Court can my hometown be transformed," Ye Qing said.

Cao Luo rolled his eyes. As they talked, they walked down the stairs. Cao Luo said, "I won't waste any more words. The reason I told you not to go above the 25th floor is because once you go above the 25th floor, you only have two choices: one is to die, and the other is to be marked by them, just like me!"

Ye Qing's heart stirred.

“They won’t allow yet another unique trait to escape their control!” Cao Luo said after a moment of silence.

"I don't understand what you're saying!" Ye Qing said.

This thing has a unique characteristic, that's really weird.

Regardless of whether Ye Qing could understand, Cao Luo took a deep breath and said, "I can sense that you and I are of the same kind, so... you must not enter the Heavenly Court. I hope that in the future, you can... find a way to save me and let me leave the Academy! Help me erase the mark!"

Hearing Cao Luo's words, Ye Qing felt a chill run down his spine!

This grandson actually comes from the academy, the legendary owner of the academy's unique characteristics.

He glanced at Cao Luo, who was also looking at him with a pleading look in her eyes, and said, "Ye Qing, people like us have no other choice!"

"I really don't understand what you're saying!" Ye Qing shook his head and said.

“Remember my words, you must remember them. Once you pass the twenty-fifth floor, there will definitely be powerful forces that want to capture you, but with me here, I can help you escape!” Cao Luo took a deep breath and said, “During the Genius Battle, I will open a passage for you, and you can use that opportunity to escape! At that time, they will only think that you died in the Genius Battle.”

“We’ll meet at the Holy Mountain!” he added.

During their conversation, they had already reached the first floor.

The staff of Shengxianlou came over, and Ye Qing and Cao Luo handed over the plaques they were holding!

"You've won!" Just then, a voice rang out.

Ye Qing looked up and saw that the speaker was Wang Yuheng. He looked at Cao Luo and said, "But why are you still trying to climb higher?"

"Beating you is enough, there's no need to push forward!" Cao Luo said calmly.

Wang Yuheng frowned; he felt insulted.

"Alright, see you on the battlefield, geniuses!" Wang Yuheng snorted coldly and tossed a small cloth bag over.

Cao Luo snorted coldly, and he vanished from his spot in an instant!

Ye Qing grabbed the bag and glanced at it. He found four high-grade blue crystals and one extremely pure top-grade blue crystal inside.

He suppressed his inner joy and put the cloth bag into his pocket!

Just then, a figure slowly emerged from the crowd. She frowned, looked Ye Qing up and down, and said, "Ye Qing!"

Ye Qing looked up and saw that the person walking towards him was none other than Zhu Cangyue!

"Come with me to the food court, someone wants to treat you to a meal!" Zhu Cangyue said.

"it is good!"

Ye Qing glanced at the big yellow dog not far away. The big yellow dog nodded at him, as if to say that everything was going according to his plan!

Ye Qing's heart stirred slightly. He followed Zhu Cangyue and walked towards the food pavilion across the street.

"What's wrong with you!" Zhu Cangyue said as soon as they stepped out of the crowd, "Didn't you promise me you'd join my Star Moon Sect? Why are you challenging the Ascension Tower here!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing coughed and said, "I heard that all the geniuses are coming to challenge the Ascension Tower, so I wanted to see how big the difference is between my talent and theirs!"

Zhu Cangyue looked at Ye Qing helplessly, a hint of resentment in her eyes, and said, "You betrayed me!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing quickly replied, "Senior, you're too kind!"

"Then how about you agree to join my Star Moon Sect later?" Zhu Cangyue said.

"Um... are there any other major powers that want to hire me?" Ye Qing asked.

"Do you even know what it means to reach the twenty-fifth floor?!" Zhu Cangyue said speechlessly, "This is practically the most top-tier talent under the unique trait, something everyone would scramble for. Hey, come with me!"

As he spoke, Ye Qing followed Zhu Cangyue into the food pavilion, and then they took the elevator to the top floor of the food pavilion.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side of the food court, three masked people were sitting there!

"To be able to reach the twenty-fifth floor, his talent is indeed remarkable!" The woman looked at Xue Jian, who was wearing a mask, and said, "But the problem now is that he has participated in the Ascension Tower, and those powerful forces in the Heavenly Court will probably try to recruit him!"

“Since he let us see it!” the middle-aged man said at this moment, “he naturally intends for us to take action!”

"What do you think?" Xue Jian asked.

"Ultimately, it's not a unique characteristic, and it can't break the current situation!" The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "However... we can still save him!"

Xue Jian nodded and said, "Alright, I can't stay outside for too long, lest Lu Lan discover some flaws, so I have to leave early. You can contact Ye Qing yourselves. Remember, you must protect him after three years!"

"We can protect him without much problem, but the prerequisite is that he has to survive this battle of geniuses!" the woman said with a smile. "If he displays this talent and doesn't choose any faction, the Heavenly Court... won't let him live!"

"It's alright!" Xue Jian said, "Only a life-or-death battle like this can bring out his full potential."
