"Quite a few old acquaintances here."
Jiang Chen glanced at the light screen, quickly spotting several familiar IDs.
However, the rankings of these IDs were constantly changing. One moment, Qian Xingtianxia was on the list, and the next, his name was gone.
Except for the top twenty, the rankings behind them were changing significantly every moment.
Clearly, many people were in the Trial Tower, striving to improve their rankings!
"Look, the name 'Master of Life and Death' is rising fast; it's already in the top 20!"
"That's nothing, look at 'Supreme Overlord,' already in the top 10!"
"I can only last a little over a minute on the first level. These people must be level 20; how can they stay so long?"
...
Many players were discussing the rankings on the Trial Tower.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted.
"Mortal World is here!"
Instantly, countless eyes turned to look.
Jiang Chen was walking toward the Trial Tower.
"Mortal World is going to challenge the Trial Tower!"
"Is it the National Server's Number One Priest?"
"Who else could it be?"
...
Many people around started talking.
Jiang Chen quickly arrived at the entrance of the first level of the Trial Tower.
Just as he was about to enter, a blond-haired boy walked out of the Trial Tower.
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
"Why is this trial so hard? I felt like I was just a bit away from entering the second level!"
The blondie said dejectedly, "I should have held back a bit instead of going all out, maybe then I could have made it into the top 100!"
If it were anyone else, Jiang Chen would have ignored them.
But he knew this person; his ID was [Dashing Young Master Leng]!
"This kid got to the Royal City so quickly?"
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised. The last time he saw him, he was only around level 15 or 16?
Now he was already level 20 and aiming for the top 100?
"Hey? It's you!"
Dashing Young Master Leng flicked his hair and noticed Jiang Chen.
His eyes lit up, and he looked very excited.
"What's up?"
Jiang Chen was a bit puzzled.
"I know who you are!"
Dashing Young Master Leng shouted happily.
"What? Of course, you know who I am; haven't we met before?"
Jiang Chen was even more puzzled.
Previously in Snowstorm City, Dashing Young Master Leng had blocked his way, claiming he wasn't the National Server's Number One Priest in his mind.
Was it strange to know who he was?
"Back then, you saved us, didn't you?"
Dashing Young Master Leng stared straight at Jiang Chen, his expression full of joy.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Chen was taken aback.
"Hahaha, I knew it was you!"
Dashing Young Master Leng leaned close to Jiang Chen's ear and whispered, "When you saved us, weren't you wearing a white mask..."
"Wait!"
Jiang Chen quickly interrupted him and asked, "Why do you say I saved you?"
Jiang Chen was a bit confused. How was he discovered?
"The last time I saw you at the Snowstorm City gate, you said you wanted to spar with the priest I know if you had the chance!"
"So I looked up your information and watched your videos. I found that the Hexagram skill you used was exactly the same as the one the priest who saved us used!"
"You two are the same person, am I right?"
Dashing Young Master Leng's tone was full of excitement, as if he had discovered something incredible.
"What's so strange about using the same skill? Aren't skills of the same class quite similar?"
Jiang Chen pursed his lips.
"You're still pretending?"
Dashing Young Master Leng had a look of "I've seen through you," flicking his hair as he said, "That skill is unique! I posted screenshots of your skill in many forums, and everyone who knows this Hexagram said it's the skill of the National Server's Number One Priest, Mortal World. You two are definitely the same person!"
"So that's how it is..."
Jiang Chen suddenly understood. It was indeed the skill that gave him away.
The Small Holy Light Apocalypse Array was indeed unique to him at the moment.
However, now that he had the Transformation Stone, he didn't have to worry about this anymore.
"By the way, I have a dream!"
Dashing Young Master Leng suddenly looked at Jiang Chen with eager eyes, full of expectation.
"What is it?"
Why did he suddenly have a dream?
Jiang Chen was a bit out of sync with his train of thought.
"Mortal World, I want to become a peerless master like you!"
Dashing Young Master Leng said excitedly, "So, can I ask you to teach me? I can follow you and help with tasks. Don't worry, I won't leech your experience; I just want to learn something!"
"But you're a warrior, what can you learn from me?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was amused and asked, "Don't you have your own team? Like Xiao Wei."
"Ah, they can't come to the Royal City yet! I got a series of hidden quests, which is how I quickly reached level 20."
Dashing Young Master Leng looked proud, leaning close to Jiang Chen's ear again, whispering, "I got a hidden class, Sword Soul!"
"Sword Soul?"
Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed as he looked Dashing Young Master Leng up and down, finding it hard to believe.
As far as he knew, Sword Soul was extremely rare. Not only was it difficult to obtain, but it also required some mystical conditions like "Sword Heart Clarity" and "Harboring Sword Intent" to acquire the class.
And yet, this non-mainstream youth managed to get such a top-tier hidden class?
It was simply unbelievable!
"That's right, Sword Soul!"
Dashing Young Master Leng's mouth curled into a smile as he quickly said, "So let me follow you, I promise I won't embarrass you!"
