The moment he saw that number go up, Lin Fan\'s lips curled into a faint smile.

It seemed like the rooms didn\'t care if it was a human that went into them, as long as there was someone that went in to take the trial and they either passed or failed, it would count towards the counter. It didn\'t matter if it was human, beast, or puppet, it just needed a body to enter the door.

It seemed like there was still a way for Lin Fan to finish this first trial without losing too many of the group and taking up too much time.

But there was still something that Lin Fan couldn\'t help wondering about.

Since there were all these doors set up, there must be a purpose for them. There would be no meaning if they were just there for people to fail or die in.

As Lin Fan had this though, he moved towards one of the doors that was in front of him.

When Mo Ze Chen saw Lin Fan moving towards the door, he couldn\'t help asking, "Boss, what are you doing?"

Lin Fan turned and said, "Watch over everything here for a few minutes, I\'ll be back soon."

Mo Ze Chen was about to say something, but before he could say a single word, Lin Fan had already opened the door in front of him and walked in. Mo Ze Chen was just left standing there with his mouth wide open, which soon turned into a bitter smile on his face.

He knew that Lin Fan was strong, but no one that had gone through these doors had come back just yet, so he couldn\'t help feeling a bit worried.

However, since Lin Fan had already gone through the door, there wasn\'t anything he could do. He turned to the others and said, "Just wait here for a bit. The boss will be back soon."

But even as he said that, there were quite a few of the people behind him who revealed looks of doubt. It was clear that none of them believed what he said, but they weren\'t wrong to not believe him. After all, the facts were just too against him.

Still, there was nothing they could do except wait since none of them were willing to sacrifice their own lives.

As for Lin Fan, once he went through that door, he found that what was waiting on the other side wasn\'t as terrifying as he thought it would be. Once he went in, it took him no longer than five minutes to clear the trial that he was given.

It was very unlikely that he was given an easier trial since all the doors had random designs and he had picked out a door randomly in the end.

But if he hadn\'t been, he was surprised by how fast that trial went. He couldn\'t help wondering why the others had failed their exams.

What he didn\'t know was that these trials were designed for people in the Embryo Soul Realm, which was why he had been able to easily clear his. All the other people who had gone in had all been in the Fragmented Soul Realm and they were only normal experts since they were people who followed the real experts.

Lin Fan just felt it was too easy because he was too strong now.

After taking care of the trial, Lin Fan saw the door reappear where he had come in from and in front of the door was a podium. Atop that podium, there was a bead that was surrounded in a golden glow.

Lin Fan walked up to the bead and reached out to touch it. The moment his hand made contact with the bead, the golden glow spread across him and entered into the diamond on his forehead.

The only difference this time was that when it went past his eyes, he didn\'t see any memories or any other scenes.

All that he saw was a flash of light as the golden glow passed right in front of his eyes.

After that was done, the entire space that he was in fell silent and turned dark, only leaving the door that was in front of him.

Since there was nothing else left for him here, Lin Fan had no other choice but to go through the door to appear in the hall again.

When he appeared, he saw the crowd that was waiting for him outside of the door that he had gone into. However, when he looked closely, he found that there were a few members of this crowd that were missing.

Turning to look at the countdown, he saw that the number had also increased which matched the number of people that were missing, as well as including the one door that he had just cleared.

It seemed like there were people who were too anxious and couldn\'t wait for Lin Fan. It was just too bad that that decision was the one that had most likely cost them their lives.

Based on his experience with the trial behind the doors, it didn\'t seem like there was a chance to live if they failed the trial.

Mo Ze Chen was the first one to come over as he asked, "Boss, how was it?"

Lin Fan gave a nod and said, "Not bad, it\'s just that there\'s nothing worth it behind these doors."

All the other people had been listening carefully and when they heard what Lin Fan said, they couldn\'t help revealing doubtful looks. It seemed like while this person didn\'t have any ill will, it also didn\'t seem like he was willing to help them.

Most of them were convinced that there were opportunities that were hiding behind the doors and this person just wanted to keep them for himself, which was why he had downplayed it.

So even though none of the other people who had gone into these doors had come back, they were still tempted to go in. There were already a few that were inching towards doors when Lin Fan said this, but of course it was hard for him to miss them.

Without waiting for Mo Ze Chen to say anything, Lin Fan said in a cold voice, "All of you, stay still."

When Lin Fan said this, there was a chill that filled the air and not a single one of them was able to move any further. The ones that had already moved a bit away from the group suddenly took a step back, but none of them dared to look back in Lin Fan\'s direction.

It seemed like they had been wrong about this person. They thought that he was a kind person, but now it seemed like they had just been his pawns.

However, not a single one was disappointed with Lin Fan since they knew that this was just how this world went. The powerful people could do what they want and the less powerful had to just follow their will. This was a dog eat dog world.

Lin Fan could naturally tell what they were thinking based on their expressions, but he also didn\'t care since he knew that explaining it to them wouldn\'t work. Lin Fan just went back to the gate and forced them all to follow him.

When he was in front of the gate, Lin Fan raised his hand and was about to summon the puppets when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

That voice said, "Wait."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this voice since they all recognized it and when they turned around, they saw Wang Jian standing there.

Lin Fan also turned around to look at Wang Jian, but he didn\'t say a thing as he waited for Wang Jian to continue.

Wang Jian also ignored the crowd and had been focused on Lin Fan the entire time. Looking right into Lin Fan\'s gaze, he said, "Let me give it a try first."

Lin Fan looked at Wang Jian for a few seconds before raising his hand. However, this time, his hand wasn\'t raised to call out the puppets. Rather his hand was stretched out in an inviting manner, as if he was letting Wang Jian do what he wanted.

Wang Jian saw this and cupped his hand to Lin Fan before moving to the door closest to him. Without any hesitation, he pulled open the door and went right through. Of course, the Myriad Sword Hall junior who had been following behind Wang Jian also followed him in without any hesitation.

He knew that in this unfamiliar place, the safest place for him was to follow Wang Jian who was like a god to him, even if that meant going through this potentially dangerous and unknown door.

After Wang Jian disappeared, Lin Fan looked over the group and said, "You can go pick a door if you want, but you should know that you\'ll die if you do."

Everyone in the group felt a chill run down their backs when Lin Fan said this, but there were a few that also moved towards the doors since they still believed that there were opportunities hiding behind the doors for them.

After reaching a door, those people all looked back at Lin Fan, as if waiting to see if he would make a move. However, Lin Fan just stood there and watched them with looks of pity, as if he was looking at people who had chosen to die.

These people were confused, but since Lin Fan didn\'t seem to be making a move, they decided to quickly enter before he changed his mind.

To these people, what they thought Lin Fan had meant by them dying was that he would kill them if they entered these doors.

It was too bad what they didn\'t know was what Lin Fan actually meant was that there was only death waiting for them behind these doors.
