Chapter 25 Entering the Secret Tower

Wang Wang Wang!

After Bai Qi's "careful" training these past few days, the husky has completely abandoned its original breed characteristics, switched to a different language, and now sits arrogantly in front of the gate, waiting for Bai Qi's praise.

"You bastard, you actually have this kind of ability."

Bai Qi carefully examined the gate and became increasingly certain that it was related to the Secret Tower of the Hill of the Dead.

If we report this to the association, there should be quite a few rewards, right?

Bai Qi glanced at the several floating mechanical eyes in the sky not far away, and then began to wave to attract their attention.

creak.

Just then, the door slowly opened, revealing a vortex that spread all the way to Bai Qi's feet. Bai Qi didn't even have a chance to react before he fell in.

After the man, the dog, and the skeleton disappeared, the mechanical eye finally arrived, leaving only a huge black door.

……

Assessment headquarters by Taize Lake.

Qin Jiang, the president of the Beast Taming Association of Gusu City, was standing in front of a huge screen, on which the situation at the shore of Taize Lake was being clearly displayed.

Although this training and assessment did indeed intend to make these trainee beast tamers suffer a bit, those who needed to be kept a close eye on them still needed to be kept an eye on.

However, the images projected back by the mechanical eye were far from satisfactory for Qin Jiang.

Some were chased by thorny wild boars, some were scared unconscious by green-haired spiders, and even more ridiculously, someone was knocked unconscious by a light-toothed rabbit that was only level two.

"We've been too comfortable these past few years. It seems we'll have to increase the difficulty of future training and assessments."

Seeing the younger generation of beast tamers in Gusu City in such a state, Qin Jiang couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. However, the titled legendary Minghuang-Bai Heguang, who was sitting next to him, comforted him, "President Qin, you're overthinking it. There were also some people who performed well in this training."

As he spoke, Bai Heguang pointed to several apprentice beast tamers on the screen who were challenging level 10 ferocious beasts and said, "Although they are still a bit inexperienced, they are quite good for their age."

"Hey, Kazumitsu, you're indirectly praising your son, aren't you? I heard he recently broke through to level three?"

"The situation with autumn tea is somewhat special, so it's not very useful for reference."

Hearing Bai Heguang's words, President Qin's expression softened somewhat. He said, "This time, I specifically asked the Beast Taming Legion to bring out a few ferocious beasts from the Secret Realm Tower to let them get used to it. I hope these little guys will perform better in the Secret Realm Tower from now on."

At this point, Chairman Qin signaled to the staff to switch the camera to several ferocious beasts brought out from the Secret Realm Tower.

Because of their high scores, these ferocious beasts, despite being the highest level, already had beast tamers challenging them.

Looking at their performance, Chairman Qin nodded in satisfaction. Although the overall level was somewhat weak, just as Bai Heguang had said, there were still quite a few promising talents.

"Huh? Why isn't there any footage of the Ice Demon?"

President Qin looked for a long time but couldn't find the painting of the Ice Demon. After checking, the staff member in charge of controlling the mechanical eyes reported: "President, the mechanical eyes near the Ice Demons were impacted by some unknown energy and a section of the image is missing. Those Ice Demons must have been hunted down."

"Also, the soldiers in the arena reported that an examinee named Bai Qi has gone missing, and a new entrance to a secret realm has been discovered in the area where he disappeared!"

……

Bai Qi woke up in a daze on an icy plain, with a husky and Alpha standing beside him, both looking equally bewildered.

Well, Alpha doesn't have a face.

"You idiot, what exactly did you dig up?!"

Looking at the pale blue ice walls around him, Bai Qi was instantly enraged and grabbed the husky by the neck, shaking it back and forth.

Awoo awoo.

(What does this have to do with me? You're the one who kicked that door open!)

Before he could react, a hole suddenly appeared in the surrounding ice wall, and an ice demon emerged from it.

"Uh, what's going on?"

Seeing the ice demon flying rapidly towards him, Bai Qi was puzzled and quickly took a few steps back, leaving the battlefield to Alpha.

"Alpha, remember to leave your corpse intact!"

Although the current situation is still uncertain, since they have encountered another Ice Demon, Bai Qi will naturally not let this opportunity slip by.

Upon receiving the order, Alpha also assumed a fighting stance and quickly approached the Ice Demon.

Seeing that this skinny skeleton dared to launch an attack, the Ice Demon did not hesitate at all, shooting out a barrage of ice fangs, but Alpha easily dodged them all. Occasionally, a couple of fangs that couldn't be dodged in time were easily shattered by Alpha.

Upon seeing this, the Ice Demon immediately tried to create distance, but Alpha's speed was too fast. With a leap, Alpha landed on the Ice Demon and then unleashed a series of slashes.

Click.

The white bone dagger easily broke through the ice demon's defenses and hit its core. Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately rushed forward and pressed down on the ice demon before it could dissipate.

[Name]: Evolution Egg (38% of Black Iron Egg)

[Status]: Activated

As expected of a top-tier elite, they directly provided 10% of the progress!

Bai Qi glanced at the cracks that had spread to one-third of the Evolution Egg and immediately beamed with joy.

At this rate, it's not a dream that the Evolutionary Egg will upgrade again.

Crackling.

(Master, how did I do this time?)

"Well done!"

Sensing the strong emotions emanating from Alpha, Bai Qi affectionately tapped Alpha's little head.

Because its main body was hit, the Ice Demon only lasted for a short while before slowly dissipating, and an amber encased in pale blue flames appeared in the spot.

There are other rewards?

Seeing the amber that suddenly appeared, and the black door that had previously thrown him here, Bai Qi was basically certain where he was.

The Secret Tower of the Hill of the Dead.

"If those guys who are still working hard to accumulate points find out that I just walked in like this, they'll probably be furious."

The thought that he had entered the secret tower that everyone had been longing for so early made Bai Qi's smile somewhat distorted.

"Alpha, put that piece of amber away."

As a student at the weaponry academy, Bai Qi was also knowledgeable about various materials and could immediately tell the origin of this amber.

Soul Stones are a type of ore that can quickly enhance the soul strength of undead creatures. They are generally formed after the death of powerful undead creatures.

"We're rich! We're rich! Finally, we don't have to live such a hard life anymore!"

This is a rare material, and it's not commonly seen outside. Unless a large number of Soul Stones suddenly flow out of here, this Soul Stone will definitely fetch a high price.

If it encounters those die-hard fans of the Legend of the Underworld, it might sell for even more!
