The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 102 Killing Field, Executioner Advances!

It's exactly twelve o'clock on the floating island.

The fourth presiding judge, Fang Zhuliu, promptly put away the list and turned to leave.

But at that moment, Lu Yan stepped out of the space and landed in front of Wan Zhuliu.

"Latecomers will not be allowed to participate in the Origin Tracing Project, so you may leave the dome now."

Wan Zhuliu remained expressionless and said, "There's no need for any explanation. Whether you were set up or there's some other reason, it doesn't change the fact that you're late."

Hearing this, Lu Yan felt somewhat helpless.

In the end, they were outmaneuvered.

However, he quickly came to terms with it and turned to leave.

It's a pity I couldn't participate in the source tracing project, but it's okay if I missed it.

His success is not due to any plan, but to his own talent and hard work!

Moreover, besides the Origin Tracing Project, he wasn't without support in the Original Sanctuary.

"I wonder if my master and mistress have returned yet. If all else fails, I'll go stay with my senior sister for a while."

Lu Yan thought so, and when Wan Zhuliu saw how carefree Lu Yan was, his stern face softened a bit.

"All eliminated candidates will gather in the underground cave for a second round of selection. The deadline is 6 p.m. today. Don't be late again."

There's still a screening process?

Lu Yan paused in his steps.

This round of selection is really troublesome. It would be much more satisfying to find a new powerful ally as soon as possible and focus on honing your skills.

Seeing Lu Yan's appearance, Wan Zhuliu didn't want to say anything more. He simply tossed a form to Lu Yan and then disappeared into the air.

Lu Yan took the form and found that it contained the enrollment rules for this year's new students in the Tracing the Source Program.

This included details about the second round of screening.

"Those who fail the Primal Enlightenment will proceed to the Underground for a second round of selection—the winner will receive an extra bottle of Primal Potion?!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Yan immediately perked up.

If I had told you about this good stuff earlier, he would have woken up immediately.

He has taken two primal potions so far: one promoted him to teacher and the other granted him the Hunter Rank.

Each one would be a significant improvement for him, and if he could get another bottle, his trip would be worthwhile.

With this thought in mind, Lu Yan decided to leave the floating island and head to the location of the underground cave.

"Lu Yan, wait a moment!"

Just then, a familiar voice came from afar.

Lu Yan looked over upon hearing the sound and was astonished to find that it was Xiao Yiren and her group.

Seeing the list in Lu Yan's hand, Xiao Yiren couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"I'm sorry I didn't inform you about the change of registration location in time. I will give you an explanation."

"Thank you, but I prefer to do these things myself."

Lu Yan shook his head and declined Xiao Yiren's offer.

This was clearly Chu Xuan's doing, so naturally he wouldn't hold a grudge against anyone else.

But he will not let any of those who need to be settled slip by.

"That's your freedom, but I will still give you the explanation you owe."

Xiao Yiren's voice remained gentle, but her words were full of unquestionable authority.

"That's right, these bastards even dared to scheme against my friends! I'll teach them a lesson!"

"Um.

""

Ning Ran nodded vigorously, a rare hint of anger appearing on her usually expressionless face.

"Alright."

Lu Yan had no choice but to give up.

"Are you planning to participate in the second round of selection?"

Xiao Yiren paused for a moment, then asked.

"It seems I have no other choice?"

Lu Yan waved his hand and said, "I'll go first, so I won't be late again."

99

With that, Lu Yan leaped into the depths below the floating island, then stepped on the armor-piercing armor and headed into the distance.

Before the others could even express their feelings, Lu Yan turned around and ran back, scratching his face somewhat awkwardly.

"Um, where's the underground cave?"

Beneath the original shelter lies the underground cave.

Hundreds of young superhumans from various shelters gathered at the entrance of the underground cave, their eyes filled with a kind of madness.

As geniuses selected from various sequences, they naturally possessed pride, yet they were shattered upon arriving at the Primordial Sanctuary.

But they did not despair because of this; instead, it aroused their deepest desires.

They're going to pass the second round of selection and give everyone a resounding slap in the face!

But when they saw the young man leaning against the entrance of the cave not far away, their enthusiasm cooled down a bit.

Chai Yu, a former genius of the Original Sanctuary, fell into a slump for a year due to some unexpected events, but recently rose again and returned to the top.

But for some reason, this resurrected genius failed the first round of selection and was eliminated in the second round.

Most people were worried, but a small number of them were dismissive.

"Even if you're incredibly talented, you still didn't pass the first round of screening. What's the difference between you and us?"

A young man with slicked-back hair spat angrily, pointing his giant axe at Chai Yu, seemingly wanting to challenge him.

However, Chai Yu paid no attention to any of this and simply closed his eyes to rest.

But just then, another group of people suddenly walked in from outside the cave.

Everyone turned to look, their eyes filled with hostility.

Now, with each additional person arriving, they will have one more competitor.

However, upon sensing the aura emanating from the newcomer, all of them had their pupils shrink.

Three of these four people were Sequence 6, while the young man following behind them didn't show any particular aura, so it was unclear what his strength was.

With such a luxurious escort, it's probably some rich young master who's come here to have fun.

"Thank you all."

Lu Yan bowed slightly to express his gratitude. This original shelter was really too big. If no one had led the way, he really might not have been able to find it before six o'clock.

"It's my duty."

Xiao Yiren shook her head and said, "However, this underground cave is extremely dangerous. The opponents are not only the other examinees, so you must be very careful."

""

This was not an exaggeration on her part; those imprisoned in the underground cave were no pushovers.

Even though Lu Yan is very strong, we still cannot be careless.

Moreover, the crisis may not be limited to these issues.

"Thank you for reminding me, I will pay attention."

Lu Yan nodded slightly, his gaze barely sweeping over several figures in the crowd.

With such obvious murderous intent, Chu Xuan's arrangement of the men was far too unprofessional.

Perhaps there are other hidden contenders?

"Click click click—"

Just then, the stone door to the underground cave slowly opened, and a nauseating, foul stench immediately wafted out.

Everyone covered their noses and backed away, but Chai Yu, who had been waiting at the entrance, went against the flow and walked directly into the cave.

"Everyone hurry up and keep up, don't let that guy get there first!"

Someone shouted, and everyone became agitated, ignoring the unpleasant smell, and rushed in one after another.

"Then I'll be going too. See you at the Primal Academy."

Lu Yan waved his hand, stepped onto his flying sword and flew past the crowd, becoming the second person to rush into the underground cave.

Upon entering the underground cave, a series of prompts popped up on the panel.

[Dr. Alchemist has detected the scent of the Primal Potion and hopes the host will find it as soon as possible.]

The executioners sensed the presence of a large number of criminals and were eager to execute them!

[The Dream Demon Shepherd has captured a large amount of negative emotions and is now reaping them with the Seven Emotions Demon.]

[The Master of Weapons has discovered a considerable amount of weapon fragments. In the spirit of not wasting anything, he hopes the host can collect some.]

[The Bloodthirsty Shaman craves rivers of blood and urges his host to slaughter indiscriminately!]

All five sequences expressed their needs, but Lu Yan did not rush to respond. His eyes flashed with golden light as he quickly locked onto those who had shown murderous intent towards him.

Unaware that they had been exposed, the group moved seemingly casually, but they managed to surround Lu Yan completely.

Before the group could make a move, a group of ragged people emerged from the cave.

These people were mostly hunched over, but their auras were incredibly powerful.

Especially their eyes, whether indifferent or crazed, were all filled with boundless killing intent.

These are all death row inmates from the original sanctuary, who have been imprisoned here for many years.

The candidates' second round of selection task was to successfully find a way out of the underground cave while being intercepted by these death row inmates.

But what the test takers didn't know was that these criminals had also received a mission.

If they can stop all the test takers, they can be absolved of their crimes.

For these death row inmates, the best way to intercept them is to leave all the examinees here forever.

Faced with the menacing aura of these death row inmates, many test takers showed fear.

Those who have grown to Sequence 7 are naturally not easy to deal with, but upon seeing these death row inmates, they subconsciously felt a sense of fear.

However, a small number of them, instead of backing down in the face of these criminals' murderous intent, pressed forward, looking for the best opportunity to strike.

These are people who have experienced real killing, and they know very well that if they show any weakness, they will be completely exploited by these criminals.

But it is clear that they are not numerically superior.

Without any warning, the criminals launched an attack simultaneously.

There are no fancy tricks; each criminal's attack method is simple yet extremely deadly.

In an instant, the huge underground cavern was turned into a killing field, with fighting and screams everywhere, and the people who had been gathered together were forced to disperse.

Those who had their eyes on Lu Yan did not miss this opportunity and took advantage of the chaos to quietly approach him.

However, they did not notice that a dark figure was emerging from their shadows.

In just a few breaths, the Shadow Arbiter killed the group and then disappeared into the darkness once more.

There are still many criminals here waiting for it to make its ruling.

Suddenly, a series of subtitles flashed before Lu Yan's eyes.

[The Shadow Arbitrator executes criminals continuously; the executioner is in a good mood, progress +1%]

[The Shadow Arbitrator executes criminals continuously; the executioner is in a good mood, progress +2%]

Although the overall quality of death row inmates is not high, the sheer number of them means that the execution rate is increasing rapidly.

[Executioner Promotion Requirement 1: Mastering Ten Execution Techniques (10/10) - Completed]

[Executioner Promotion Condition Two: Execute ten Sequence 7 Superhumans by different means (10/10) - Completed]

[Executor (100%): Can be promoted!]

Lu Yan grinned, surprised that the executioner could complete all the promotion requirements so easily.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Yan directly selected "confirm".

[Promotion successful! Obtained Sequence 6 - Executioner!]
