238: Chapter 238 The Star Tower Trial Officially Begins!

The Star Tower towered into the clouds.

The tower had thirty levels in total, and at the entrance stood a massive bronze gate.

The trial had already begun at this moment.

In front of the gate was a continuously rotating and twisting spatial vortex.

As long as one made contact, they could enter the Star Tower and officially begin the trial!

Lin Mo hurried to the front of the Star Tower and stood at the very back of the line of participants.

He sighed with emotion, "That was close. I was delayed earning experience points in the Sunset Plain yesterday and almost missed it!"

As he spoke, Lin Mo deliberately panted heavily, putting on the appearance of having rushed over.

His gaze swept over Su Youwei and Gu Rongyu.

He nodded slightly.

In reality, Lin Mo had arrived nearby long ago.

He had only seen the messages Su Youwei and Gu Rongyu sent him early on.

They said they would wait for him in front of the Star Tower to cheer him on.

That was why Lin Mo had delayed appearing.

Otherwise, if he had come too early, he would have definitely been exposed and ruined.

Now that the Star Tower was about to open, the two women naturally couldn't show too much.

This way, he was much safer.

As for what would happen after the Star Tower trial ended...

Lin Mo had already made arrangements for Song Cheng in advance.

However, it was during this sweep that Lin Mo suddenly noticed a hostile gaze from ahead.

It was a man with red hair.

Luo Siyue quickly walked up to Lin Mo and lowered her voice, "That person is Jiang Wu! His strength has already reached the 4th Order, 9th Stage!"

"I received news that the Jiang Family does not accept that the Jiang Dongming's death was an accident, and many people saw your dispute with him outside the Fairy Tale Forest at the time."

"They now suspect that the Jiang Dongming's death is related to you."

"Inside the Star Tower, teleportation is random; you cannot form teams."

"You must be careful; absolutely do not make contact with him!"

Luo Siyue's expression was filled with intense worry.

Lin Mo nodded calmly, "Alright, I understand."

"I have also greeted Captain Jiang and the others," Luo Siyue said, biting her lip. "We will leave team markers."

"If you come across them, just follow the markers, and you will definitely be able to rendezvous with us. It will be safer that way."

Feeling Luo Siyue's concern, Lin Mo felt a warmth in his heart, "Alright, I understand."

After giving her instructions, Luo Siyue returned to her original position.

Jiang Mengxi had wanted to come over and say something to Lin Mo as well.

However, unfortunately, the teachers were already urging everyone to enter the Star Tower for the trial.

She had no choice but to walk toward the twisting spatial vortex along with the others.

On the contrary, Xiao Xun walked quickly up to Lin Mo.

She placed a stone that looked like a star into the palm of Lin Mo's hand.

She whispered, "This is a Star Mother-Child Stone; it can still be used inside the Star Tower."

"As long as we are on the same level, there will be a reaction."

"Come find me."

"I will take you into Star Academy together with me!"

After saying this, Xiao Xun didn't wait for Lin Mo to react and returned to her original position to enter the trial.

Lin Mo glanced at the Star Mother-Child Stone.

He felt a sense of emotion in his heart.

According to what Qin Yao said, one cannot use item potions in this Star Tower.

That Xiao Xun could obtain this Star Mother-Child Stone was clearly because of President Mu Xingchen.

This is the benefit of having connections and being able to take the back door.

Fortunately... he would be able to do so in the future too.

Lin Mo still tucked this Star Mother-Child Stone into his Storage Pouch.

Whether he used it or not, this was ultimately a gesture of goodwill from the other party, who was worried he wouldn't pass the assessment.

The people participating in the assessment disappeared one by one in front of the Star Tower.

Soon, it was Qin Yao's turn.

Before entering, she glanced at Lin Mo and silently mouthed, "Black Merchant, watch out for the person behind me!"

Lin Mo smiled and nodded.

And the next one was the red-haired Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu also glanced at Lin Mo before entering.

However, he didn't say anything more.

His eyes held only cold killing intent.

Time passed second by second.

Lin Mo also arrived in front of the continuously rotating and twisting spatial vortex.

The teacher in charge of the Star Tower said softly, "Touch the vortex, do not resist."

"You will randomly appear in the lowest level area of the Star Tower."

"Challenge upwards; you are responsible for your own life and death!"

Lin Mo calmly made contact with the spatial vortex.

With a flash of light, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Thus, all participants of the Star Tower had entered.

The Star Tower trial officially began!

The teacher in charge waved his hand.

The vortex that had been slowly rotating quickly dissipated.

Then, a miraculous scene appeared.

The originally antique-looking Star Tower actually began to become transparent.

It was like an X-ray, allowing one to directly see the tower-like structure inside the Star Tower.

Not only that, but everyone could clearly see dozens of bright light points appearing inside the Star Tower.

Each light point even had a name on it.

It was the list of personnel participating in the Star Tower trial.

Now, all the light points were gathered on the first level.

They looked densely packed and were very difficult to distinguish.

Even so, Su Youwei's light point.

Two beautiful eyes stared fixedly at this light point, reluctant to look away.

...

Inside the Star Tower.

Lin Mo only felt a blur before his eyes.

The scenery before him completely changed.

The originally magnificent Star Tower that towered into the clouds disappeared.

Replacing it was a vast, continuous range of emerald green mountains.

The air was filled with hot, fire-attribute energy.

Lin Mo could even use his keen eyesight to see huge flying bird-like monsters passing across the sky in the distance.

"This place really is like a complete world. It even has a sun."

Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

If he didn't know this was the Star Tower trial, he would have thought he was truly somewhere in the world.

However... for some reason, Lin Mo vaguely felt a sense of familiarity.

It was at this moment that a few lines of small text appeared before Lin Mo's eyes.

[Star Tower Trial Level 1 Mission]

[1. Obtain 10 points (killing a He Yuan grants 1 point)]

[2. Kill the He Yuan King BOSS]

[Mission Reward: Enter the next level]

Lin Mo frowned slightly.

It wasn't because of the difficulty of this mission, but because of the monster name that appeared in the mission prompt.

He Yuan?

Such a familiar name.

Lin Mo suddenly thought of something.

He looked up at the mountain range ahead.

Lin Mo muttered, "No wonder it feels familiar!"

"This place... could it be the Demonic Beast Mountain Range from Battle Through the Heavens?"

"Isn't this He Yuan the name of the Demonic Beast that hunted down the Little Medical Fairy?"

Lin Mo forcibly suppressed the surprise in his heart.

He stepped into this mountain range, preparing to find a He Yuan first to see what exactly was going on.

However... not long after Lin Mo entered the mountain range, he suddenly felt a sense of longing coming from Ling'er on his left arm.

Lin Mo was slightly stunned.

This place... actually had good things containing special energy?
