"Maybe Lan is just ahead, you can go and fight with him directly." Yun Zheng glanced at him with a smile, then looked into the distance.
Upon hearing this, Yu Qiu also looked up at the distant scene and sighed softly, "It is indeed a bit difficult to fight face to face."
If he got the white and black tokens first, Lan would never attack him. But if they were to fight face to face, Lan would not give in either.
However, giving the ruby to Lan in exchange for second place is not an impossible idea.
Suddenly, Yun Zheng's expression changed slightly. She immediately began to look into the distance with her bloodshot eyes, and clearly saw a huge black palace gradually emerging from the ground in the distance, making a huge noise.
There were nearly two hundred people fighting in that area. However, after the black palace appeared, they all stopped and looked at the suddenly appeared palace in shock.
After noticing the aura emanating from the huge black palace, Yun Zheng's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"It's demonic energy!" Yu Qiu frowned. He was quite familiar with the breath of the demons. Although he did not have Yun Zheng's blood-red eyes, he could see the abrupt black palace appearing in the distance ahead with his naked eyes.
Yu Qiu's voice sank slightly, "How could there be demonic energy in the secret realm?!"
At this moment, the black and white tokens fought for by nearly two hundred geniuses were suddenly absorbed into the palace of evil energy.
"The token was sucked in!" A genius exclaimed.
"Is this demonic energy? Why is demonic energy appearing in the secret realm of the assessment? Is this also part of the assessment?"
In the crowd, Yuwen Zhou frowned and looked down at the Tianmu mirror in his hand. He originally thought that someone had taken the golden token and hidden it, but he didn't expect that the golden token was hidden in the palace under the ground.
Someone caught a glimpse of Yuwen Zhou's Sky Eye Mirror and immediately shouted, "The golden token is in this palace!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the geniuses became jealous.
The black token and the white token that just appeared were all sucked into the palace, and now there is an additional golden token!
If they get these three tokens, they will be just one step away from the top of the Talent Competition.
At this time, the geniuses scattered around noticed the huge black palace and rushed towards it.
The demonic aura is becoming stronger and stronger, making it difficult for people not to notice it.
Yun Zheng frowned and said, "I saw Qingqing Beauty, Lan, and Mo Jing there. Let's go see what's going on."
"Okay." Yu Qiu suppressed his thoughts and nodded.
The two of them rushed towards the black palace at the same time, and at the same time, the other geniuses also rushed there. Only those geniuses who had been tortured by the Vinewood Vampire Demon Tree had no strength to climb there and could only watch helplessly as this opportunity was abandoned.
In an instant, the team that originally had less than two hundred geniuses instantly swelled to over three hundred people.
And at this moment, outside the secret realm.
When Granny Yaoguang Tianyue saw the palace emitting demonic energy emerge, her brows furrowed. She stared at Yuchi Hong with a sharp gaze, "Master Yuchi, what's going on with this demonic energy?!"
Yuchi Hong smiled slightly, "The demons are our human race's greatest enemy. Although they have almost disappeared, we cannot ignore them. As humans, we must have the ability to fight against the demons. That's why the great ancestors set up this assessment site."
"How could the elite geniuses of the three continents not be able to take down a few demons?" Patriarch Gong chimed in with a smile.
The head of the Yaoguang Yin family frowned slightly, "What level of demon is it?"
Yuchi Hong raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know about this, but don't worry, those demons are trapped in the palace by the great ancestors and they will definitely not be able to get out."
Patriarch Fan of the Yaoguang clan knew he couldn't change the rules of the secret realm assessment, so he sighed deeply, "This year's exchange meeting is getting more difficult with each level."
"The great elders said that this is the only way to select talented geniuses." Yuchi Hong stroked his beard with pleasure.
Hearing this, Lady Jiu could no longer bear it and rolled her eyes.
Everything was said by the Supreme Patriarch. This Yuchi Hong is really a 'good grandson'!
…
Within the secret realm.
When Yun Zheng and Yu Qiu arrived, there were already about 300 geniuses gathered here. They quickly found Nangong Qingqing, Feng Xinglan and Mo Jing and reunited.
When Mo Jing saw the two of them, he couldn't help but be surprised. He looked at Yun Zheng and said, "I didn't expect you two to meet up first."
"I didn't expect that you three would meet up too." Yun Zheng said with a smile.
"I met Brother Lan first, and then Brother Jing." Nangong Qingqing smiled slowly, as if she had thought of something. She said with a faint smile, "Brother Lan originally obtained a white token, but before he could put it away, he was besieged by other geniuses. Now... this white token has been sucked into this palace."
As she said the last sentence, Nangong Qingqing raised her eyes and looked towards the black palace not far away. Its door was tightly closed, and it seemed that the time was not right to open it yet.
Feng Xinglan's handsome face was cold, his brows slightly furrowed, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes as he said, "This palace exudes a demonic aura. There must be demons inside."
He rarely disliked anything, but the demons were definitely what he disliked the most.
Nangong Qingqing suppressed her restless mood and said, "I just don't know what else could be in there besides the demons. I always feel like it's very dangerous."
"We must go. The black, white and gold tokens are all in there." Mo Jing touched his chin and looked as if he was thinking seriously.
At this moment, Yun Zheng heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw that all the direct descendants of the Feng family were there: eldest uncle Feng Yuanming, second uncle Feng Yuanxiao, third aunt Feng Yuange, fourth uncle Feng Yuanheng, fifth aunt Feng Yuanqian, and sixth uncle Feng Yuanqiao.
The one who called her was her sixth cousin Feng Yuanqiao, that little brat.
"Yun Zheng, do you want to come to our side?" Feng Yuanqiao asked arrogantly.
Yun Zheng's eyebrows curved slightly as she politely declined, "No, I'm with my companions now."
Feng Yuanqiao felt a little disappointed when he heard this, and curled his lips gloomily.
Feng Yuange's eyes were filled with resentment, and he sneered, "She is now the pride of the sky. Why did you ask her to come? What's more, she has a grudge against the Yuchi family. If she comes, won't she bring enmity to our Feng family?"
Feng Yuanqiao crossed his arms and snorted coldly.
"I can call whoever I want, what's it to you?"
Feng Yuange was furious. Just as she was about to yell at Feng Yuanqiao, Feng Yuanxiao stopped her. He frowned and reminded her, "Ge'er, don't make a fuss. There are a lot of people here."
Feng Yuange heard this and looked around. Sure enough, many geniuses were attracted by her voice and stared at her.
Seeing this, she reluctantly said, "I understand, second brother."
