After Wang Ming retracted his gaze from the screen and got out of his thoughts, he frowned when he felt the whole place was silent.
"Why is there no sound?" Wang Ming muttered and lifted his head up. He saw that everyone was stiff as statues, looking at him with wide eyes. It seemed their eyes would pop out of their sockets, and their jaws were almost hitting the ground. Suddenly a realization dawned on him and gazed back at them.
"Oh," Wang Ming mumbled and smirked at them while scratching the side of his cheek. After he realized that he had stunned them silly by completing the Treasure Pagoda, he also thought he would be in the same state as them if he were an ordinary cultivator and someone completed something that was deemed impossible.
The first two people in the crowd who shook off their daze were Feng Mei, followed by Wu Jing. They now looked at him with a different gaze filled with admiration and excitement. The two women hurried towards him, while the others stood rooted in their spots, just watching.
"Wang Ming, are you alright?" Feng Mei asked as she inspected Wang Ming's body with her hands. This made him raise an eyebrow, sensing her behavior was a bit different.
"Of course, I'm fine," Wang Ming replied while looking at Feng Mei and Wu Jing
"H-How did you complete the treasure pagado challenge?" Wu Jing asked in a trembling voice as she looked at Wang Ming. She knew even her father wouldn't be able to complete the tower, and if they tried, she was sure they would be heavily injured. However, as she examined Wang Ming's body, there was not even a trace of blood—just a few cuts on his robes and some sweat.
"D-Did you really kill so many beasts?" Feng Mei asked, her voice stuttering. She had witnessed Wang Ming's power on two occasions, but the idea of someone taking down so many beasts seemed almost unbelievable. She kept looking at him with an incredulous expression. Wang Ming, noticing her disbelief, furrowed his brow in confusion.
"Huh, why are you asking how many beasts I killed? How do you know how many I killed?" Wang Ming asked, wearing a puzzled expression. He genuinely had no idea about the number of beasts he had taken down. Being unconscious during the ordeal, he woke up to a scene of countless corpses, some even exploded into a mist of blood. He hadn't bothered to count, so Feng Mei's mention surprised him.
"Huh, don't you know?" Feng Mei responded in a strange tone, observing Wang Ming's surprised look.
"O-of course, I know. I'm just curious how you know about it," Wang Ming said, trying to maintain a facade to avoid any embarrassment. It would be awkward if others knew, but he himself, the one who killed them, had no clue.
"It's because of the Golden Letters," Feng Mei explained, leaving Wang Ming confused of what she is talking about
"What Golden letters are you talking about?" Wang Ming asked.
"Look," Feng Mei said, noting Wang Ming's confusion. She pointed her finger toward the sky, where the letters were floating. Wang Ming followed her gesture and saw golden texts hovering above the treasure pagoda, revealing the number and power of the beasts he had killed in the tower.
'What the...' Wang Ming exclaimed in his mind, his eyes widening like saucers as he observed the high numbers and cultivation levels of the beasts that fell under his attacks inside the treasure pagoda
'What happened when I was unconscious?' Wang Ming wondered. He knew he had killed a lot of beasts, but the sheer numbers displayed were unbelievable. If the same number and cultivation of beasts attacked the kingdom, it would instantly perish. He even pondered if this many beasts of such power existed outside the tower or not.
"Hmm, I did kill them. It was a bit challenging, but I could still do it without too much effort," Wang Ming said, smirking. Feng Mei and Wu Jing were left astounded. The crowd, who had snapped out of their daze and perked up their ears to listen to Wang Ming's conversation, also heard his words, and the entire crowd broke into an uproar.
"Heavens, he really did complete and kill these many beasts," exclaimed a female, covering her mouth with her palm in shock.
"Y-yeah, if it was me, I would be shaking, but look, he is so calm," said a male cultivator in a trembling voice.
"Can these many beasts even be found outside the treasure pagoda? The treasure pagoda can easily create it. It's truly unfathomable," commented another cultivator with admiration and trepidation in his voice.
"Glad so many beasts aren't present outside. Can you imagine them trying to invade the kingdom? If it were true, we would have been beast food a long time ago," the person who said this shuddered in horror. Those nearby who heard it also shuddered, knowing they would have no way to win if so many powerful beasts attacked. The kingdom would be destroyed along with them.
"What kind of technique does he possess to make him formidable?" said a burly cultivator with a hint of greed on his face. Some others nearby also showed the same look, but it quickly dissipated as they remembered how strong Wang Ming was. Causing trouble with Wang Ming could lead them to their death.
"Yeah, the techniques he possesses must be very formidable. Look at his face and body; not a single scratch is on him," remarked a man with a sigh as he observed Wang Ming, injured but victorious against the horde of monsters. Hui Mei and Tang Ning, watching from the side, were also shocked.
"How can he be this strong? We're almost the same age. I've been trained by the sect master all my life. He's just a normal disciple who recently joined. Not only does he have a higher cultivation than me, but also a stronger sword technique. How can the gap be so big?" Tang Ning bit her lip, clenching her fist as she looked at Wang Ming. She wasn't jealous of Wang Ming having a stronger technique but was displeased with herself for having lower cultivation than him.
"Don't feel down. He's just a heaven-defying talent born rarely in this world," Hui Mei said to Tang Ning, sensing the frustration on her disciple's face. Hearing Hui Mei's words, Tang Ning calmed down a bit.
'I should still try to talk to him. Maybe he will join our sect if I offer myself,' Hui Mei thought as she looked at Wang Ming's figure. She took a deep breath and started to approach Wang Ming. Naturally, the others also noticed, and Wang Ming raised an eyebrow.
"Sect Master, do you need something?" Wu Jing asked, standing near Wang Ming.
Rumble
"I-" Before she could say anything, the whole place started to tremble. Many fell on their butts, and the golden letters shone again. Everyone turned their gaze towards the sky and read that they would be expelled from here as the treasure pagoda would disappear, and they would be expelled out of the secret realm in a minute. It surprised Wang Ming; he thought he could stay here for months as stated by the system, but now it seemed something unexpected had happened.
"System, what happened?" Wang Ming whispered.
[System Message: Due to the host completing all 100 floors, the treasure pagoda is disappearing. The treasure pagoda was the core holding the secret realm; now, with it disappearing, the secret realm will collapse. So, everyone will be teleported out to random locations.]
Wang Ming raised an eyebrow upon seeing the message, and in the next second, the crowd got angry.
"Damn, why didn't I go first?" cursed a cultivator in the crowd.
"Damn, we're going to miss such a life-changing opportunity that may not come again," said another cultivator.
"Sigh, look, it already started," another person sighed in the crowd, pointing towards someone who just vanished. Wang Ming watched as one by one, everyone vanished, and his vision also turned blurry the next second, and everyone disappeared.
