“Quick, quick, quick, Old Yu, faster!”

On the road outside the Golden Sparrow Mountain Basin, a car was speeding along, stirring up clouds of dust that were half a meter tall.

In the front passenger seat, a man in his thirties held onto the safety handle. His face was filled with excitement as he shouted, “Faster, faster! I believe the Martial Sage won’t blame us for entering the tower before the Prefecture Army! We are also Yu Nation citizens now. Once we enter the tower, we don’t have to wait for the screening and drawing of lots. We’ll get to enter immediately!”

“I know, I know, I know!”

In the driver’s seat, the man driving was also in his thirties. He was muscular and did not even have time to put on his clothes. He was only wearing a pair of pants. It was obvious that he had come out in a hurry.

In fact, the two of them happened to be looking for a herb in the woods outside the Golden Sparrow Mountain Basin today.

When they saw the news on their phones and learned that the Martial Sage had opened up a tower for all martial artists to train, they immediately dropped the herbs excitedly and rushed to the Golden Sparrow Mountain Basin.

In theory, no one was closer than them. The forest where the two of them were previously was less than ten miles away from the center of the Golden Sparrow Mountain Basin.

For this, the two of them immediately left the mountain and got into the car to hurry on their way. Their goal was to enter the tower before the Prefecture Army took control of the tower to maintain order around it.

As long as they entered the tower, they would not have to wait for days, nor would they have to draw lots and queue up like the others.

Therefore, their car drove very fast along the way. Fortunately, they were martial artists.

Qu Yijian, who was in the front passenger seat, and Yu Chen, who was driving, were both in the eighth-grade. They used their internal force to maintain their grip in the car so that they would not be sent flying when they turned a corner.

The distance of less than ten miles was quickly covered.

......

Of course, the center of the Golden Sparrow Mountain Basin was not suitable for driving.

Qu Yijian and Yu Chen stopped 700 to 800 meters away from the trial tower and got out of the car to run.

From afar, they saw a hundred-meter-tall tower standing on the ground, shining brightly under the sunlight.

Before they could get close, they felt an invisible pressure descending from above their heads.

Qu Yijian and Yu Chen both shuddered. Their restless and excited emotions immediately calmed down.

Their dashing turned to normal steps as they slowly moved closer.

When the two of them arrived at the bottom level of the tower and stood in front of the open doors, preparing to step in——

“Stop right there!”

A low shout suddenly sounded in the air.

Swoosh!

Amidst the sound of rushing wind, a figure descended from the sky and blocked their way.

“The Martial Sage has ordered that the trial tower will open in two days. You guys came early. Please leave immediately.”

The general from the Prefecture Army who blocked the way was dressed in armor and carrying a broadsword on his back. His aura was cold as he scanned Qu Yijian and Yu Chen.

“We… we’re just taking a look.”

Qu Yijian’s eyes flickered as he argued, “The announcement only said that the trial tower will open in two days. It didn’t say that we can’t come and take a look in advance.”

“Yes, yes. We’re just taking a look. We don’t intend to go in,” Yu Chen stuttered in agreement.

“Heh, there’s no point in quibbling.” The general chuckled. “I’ll cut to the chase. If you leave now, nothing will happen. If you don’t listen, that’ll…”

Thud! Thud!

Qu Yijian suddenly dropped to his knees. Yu Chen was a beat slower and followed suit.

The general was shocked and took two steps back. “What are you guys doing?”

“Martial Sage above! From the Jiannan Prefecture, Qu Yijian.”

“Yu Chen!”

“The two of us arrived at the trial tower in advance. I hope the Martial Sage will allow us to enter the tower.”

Qu Yijian and Yu Chen knelt down in front of the tower and shouted.

“If we have disturbed the Martial Sage, the two of us are willing to accept any punishment. We only ask for the Martial Sage to give us a way out and allow us to enter the tower.”

The two of them kowtowed as they shouted.

When the general in his thirties heard this, his expression changed. He did not say anything else and only stepped aside.

Qu Yijian and Yu Chen were kneeling to the Martial Sage, not him.

How this was to be resolved was up to the Martial Sage, not him.

The scene fell silent.

Both Qu Yijian and Yu Chen kowtowed in silence.

Vroom!

The sound of cars roaring in the distance kept approaching.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of rushing wind was also endless as they quickly came closer.

At the bottom level of the tower, there was no movement through the open doors.

Qu Yijian and Yu Chen knelt for a while, but received no response. Their faces were pale with fear.

If the Martial Sage did not respond, did that mean that he had been angered by them?

At this thought, Qu Yijian and Yu Chen’s bodies trembled uncontrollably.

Right then, a clear passageway appeared in the originally white light-filled space at the entrance.

A faint glow spread out from the passageway and enveloped Qu Yijian and Yu Chen.

“This is…”

Qu Yijian, Yu Chen, and the general were all stunned.

Qu Yijian’s mind raced. The fear in his eyes retreated, and his breathing slowly became heavier.

“Has the Martial Sage agreed?”

With that, he slowly crawled forward on the ground and approached the entrance.

Yu Chen and the general watched unblinkingly and held their breaths.

Qu Yijian remained silent. He moved his hands forward and inched closer.

Closer, closer.

Finally, he pressed one hand on the door, then the second. Then his head, body, and legs. Even when he crawled into the passageway entirely, nothing abnormal happened.

The peaceful scene undoubtedly showed one thing.

The Martial Sage had really agreed!

Instantly, Qu Yijian’s chest heaved up and down, his eyes filled with excitement.

“Qu Yijian thanks the Martial Sage!”

With that, he leaped up and ran into the passageway.
