Eternal Thief

Chapter 675 What Are You Doing?

As those youths passed the gates one after another, the gray token in their hand shimmered for a moment before going dormant again.

With all the races ahead crossing, it was soon the humans' turn, and the two members of the Atlas family took the lead, and everyone else followed suit.

Ace, who was at the end of the group, calmly followed behind while holding his own gray token. As Ace walked by the two statuses, he felt a terrifying probing power wash over him.

But he didn't panic and continued to walk forward as if he didn't feel anything like those youths. Thereafter, the token in his hand suddenly shimmered garishly, and like others, it went dormant the next moment.

He had now walked to the other side of the gate, and his lips curled up in a content smile.

'Now, on to the stairs.' Ace didn't show any reaction like the others around him and walked toward the first stone step, which was over two hundred meters away from the entrance.

The devils, demons, and hunters were on the lead as some of their members were already stepped on the first stairstep. At the same time, some of them were still not ready and calming their nerves. Lastly, there were also some who were using wait and see approach.

As for the time limit, there was three days limit, so they weren't worried about not having enough time.

The humans belonged to the latter group as they all watched those other races' participants pave the way for them.

Although they knew it was meaningless since, in the end, their own abilities matter the most. But they still decided to wait. At least they wanted to see those powerful races using their abilities so that they could have a clear grasp of the situation.

Even those two from the Atlas family didn't take the lead on this one, as they were watching closely.

---

Unbeknownst to those participants, they were closely monitored by ten purple robe figures standing above the clouds right above them. They were all giving off a dignified feeling as they stood on flying swords with their hands behind their backs.

However, five of them had blazing golden sun crests on their robes, while the other five had full silver moon crests just like the gates. Furthermore, the five with the moon crest were all women, while the sun crest bearer were males.

"Sigh… nothing new." A wizened face human with long white hair sighed ruefully as he looked down in a particular direction.

"Heh, what do you expect, Elder Joseph? The ascension stairway trial is always like this. Only those with courage and strength could pass it, not those who are too afraid even to take a challenge." A mature demoness with purplish glossy skin and small curvy horns remarked with a hint of scorn.

Elder Joseph, as a human, knew this demoness was referring to those youths who decided to wait and watch, and humans were included in them as well.

However, before he could retort, a short elderly figure with a long beard directly snapped at her, "Jayden, how about you mind your own business? It's not like, your demon race has passed the test for three years. What are you so proud of your little 'goodies'?"

Jayden was startled at the end and didn't understand what 'little goodies' meant until it finally came to her as she instinctively glanced at her small chest, and fury replaced her bewildered expression.

"You little dwarf! You dare to spout a vile remark! Do you think I can't do anything to you!" Jayden aura instantly rose as killing intent flashed past her rageful eyes.

"It's not like you can't do anything, but you little slut don't dare to do a thing. Come, come, little bitch let's see if you have the courage to bite!" The little dwarf, unlike his elderly age, his mouth was quite vile, and he was completely fearless as he spat curse after curse at Jayden.

This action made the other four females frown in disgust while Jayden's eyes were bloodshot as she looked at the dwarf with full of murderous intent, wanting to chop him into millions of pieces.

But just as the dwarf said, she didn't dare to attack and could only ground her teeth in hatred.

"Alright, both of you, stop." A gray-winged devil coldly glanced at them, "Elder Jayden, please refrain from remaking on others. As for you, Old Willie, can you keep that vile tongue of yours in check? It's uncouth for a man such as your status."

Willie's eyes instantly landed on the devil, and he was about to snap back at him when Joseph placed his hand over Willie's shoulder and stopped him.

Joseph knew his friend's personality quite well, and he didn't want to make trouble for him since he was just speaking up for him.

"Old Willie, let's just watch. It's not worth it." He shook his head.

"Fuck, I'll spare those bitches for your sake." Willie huffed in exasperation.

He was not just speaking for the human race; his mountain dwarf race was also among those who were still standing behind.

The Mountain Dwarf Race was ranked seventh in the golden sky world, but here they were ranked tenth, and their population was quite low.

But their personalities were quite straightforward, and they only looked at the world as black and white and fearless of consequence. If it was anywhere else, those demons and devils won't even bat an eye before killing them, but here they can't do anything.

"Look, that little human doll is still moving?" A tall, burly figure with a wolf face exclaimed at this moment.

His words drew everyone's attention as they looked in the direction of humans, and they all saw a tall young man with white hair and a scar-filled face walking past the humans with a calm expression.

"How handsome. Despite his scars, he's so attractive." A female devil with a buxom figure commented with a peculiar glint in her black eyes.

Not only just the female devil but e other four women were also looking intently at the young man.

"Haha, good lad. If he manages to pass, I'll accept him in my runic smith department." Willie laughed in satisfaction.

The others rolled their eyes at him and didn't pay attention as they just watched the white hair human advancing toward the stairstep.

Joseph's eyes were shimmering with hope as he looked at the young human, 'There's something special about him.'

Ace had no idea he had just drawn the attention of ten invigilators above the sky just by advancing toward the stairway. Even if he knew, he would still choose to advance because he was not afraid of grabbing attention after passing through the sun and moon ascension gates.

On the contrary, he was now hoping to draw a powerful figure's attention since it was the easiest way to get crucial information about the union and how to exit it.

Soon, the other humans also saw noticed Ace walking forward instead of waiting behind the members of the Atlas family.

"Hey, where are you going?" A burly human youth with a bald head asked Ace, and his voice finally drew the attention of the people in front.

Ace looked at the bald youth and coolly said, "Of course, I'm going there to pass the trial!"
