Chu Yang silently recited it in his mind, then smiled and said, "You should already know my name, right? I heard people talking about me outside."

"I know. Chu Yang."

Chu Yang grinned and nodded: "That's my name. Hey, we exchanged names, so we should be a little more familiar with each other now, right?"

Jiang Wuyuan ignored his words and focused his gaze on Shen Heng, who was practicing swordsmanship.

Shen Heng's sword intent was completely different from Jiang Wuyuan's.

He is domineering and flamboyant, with a deep mind, but also pure in his ideals—a pure determination to become stronger.

After a set of sword techniques was completed, the voice rang out calmly: "Sword technique proficient, not passed."

Knowing his fate, Shen Heng didn't say anything more.

He felt frustrated and regretful, but his upbringing from a prominent family allowed him to remain outwardly calm and composed, as if this failure was insignificant.

Shen Heng sheathed his sword and bowed in the same manner as Jiang Wuyuan.

The next second, they were teleported away by a beam of white light.

"continue."

This time, Chu Yang couldn't escape it, since he was the only one left who hadn't been tested yet.

The young man strode forward, wielding a heavy sword with great force.

Jiang Wuyuan raised an eyebrow.

Unexpectedly, this person actually has some skills.

Jiang Wuyuan thought to himself, "My swordsmanship should be good enough to pass the test."

Sure enough, when the voice determined that Chu Yang had passed the second test, Jiang Wuyuan was not surprised at all.

Chu Yang sheathed his dark, heavy sword and raised an eyebrow triumphantly at Jiang Wuyuan.

Jiang Wuyuan looked away and quietly awaited the next arrangement.

However, as time passed, the voice never spoke again.

"What's wrong? Is it frozen?" Chu Yang frowned and called out loudly, "Senior! What about the next part of the assessment?"

No one responded.

Jiang Wuyuan wasn't in a hurry. He first carefully explored the main hall and found that there was no way to leave.

He tried to escape by splitting the air, but was blocked by an invisible array around him.

It seems we're trapped here?

Jiang Wuyuan gazed at the tall stone tablet, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

This was his second time entering the secret realm to explore.

Having learned from his previous experience, he knew that most secret realms would have a normal procedure.

In fact, he had already reached the end of that secret realm from the Ice Age.

It was only because of the control by the alien race that the final, uncontrollable abnormal changes occurred.

But now, in such a secret realm created by such great power, if he were to be controlled by evil forces as before, Jiang Wuyuan would feel suffocated.

After all... someone like that could easily crush him with a single finger.

Now, he has no bad feeling, which means that everything is developing normally.

If it's normal for the owner of that voice to ignore them, does that mean it's one of the tests?

Seeing Chu Yang's growing anxiety, Jiang Wuyuan narrowed his eyes.

Should we remind him?
