The moment the two teenagers heard the words heaven grade technique, their heart physically skipped a beat and their vigilance weakened.
Their eyes shone brightly. "You said an heaven ranked technique? Is that the reward for passing the trial?" The handsome guy with the perfect hair asked.
"It's just part of the rewards." The two teenagers couldn't stop their hearts from pounding violently and their breath from getting intense.
"But you cannot take the heaven ranked technique out from here." The old man added, which made the teenagers calm slightly.
"Then how is it a reward if we can't move it from here?" The girl was starting to get annoyed.
"Ho-ho, don't be anxious little fella. Although you won't be able to move the technique out from here, you can go over there and try to see if you can comprehend it. And even if you were not able to comprehend the technique, you can still gain insight into many techniques, advancing your techniques to the next level would be as smooth as flowing waters." The old man pointed at the bright star, but as they gazed at the bright star, they saw a disciple already meditating with his hand stretched into the huge star.
Their face changed slightly. "Someone is here already? How?" The lady frowned.
"Do you know him?" The guy asked while observing David's expression.
"No, i have no idea who he is." The lady shook her head with a cold expression.

Getting to the star, the two teenagers couldn't help but let their thoughts run wildly, seeing how defenceless David was.
But the old man was behind them, he kept smiling at them as though he could read through their thoughts. This immediately let them conceal their evil intention.
The two teens glanced at each other. There was a competitive look on their faces as they stared at each other. The other wanted to be the first to practice the heaven grade technique before the other one does.
The academy with the heaven grade technique would instantly soar to the heavens and rule over the other academies with their might.
Naturally, the disciple who brings such precious treasures to the sect would be heavily reward. Becoming a candidate for the next Dean would be possible even if the person had no talent whatsoever.
Naturally, the sect that got it would have to keep things silent for a few years until they comprehended the technique. But To keep things silent, they would need to silence people who knew about the matter.
Thinking of this, their eyes collided again. They were both thinking the same thing.
Instantly, they reached out their hands quickly and immediately, they also fell into a daze and began to comprehend the technique.
The old man saw this and his smile widened even more. Now there are three options to choose from, how could he not be excited.
Time continues to pass in the blink of an eye another 2 months passed by David remained in his dazed position. By his left and his right were the two teenagers also in a daze.
Suddenly, more doors appeared and three people came out all covered in blood. They radiated a blood thirsty waves. It was obvious they had just finished from an intense battle.
In the next moment, doors began popping up and people walked out while some crawled out from it, signifying just how tiresome the battle had been.
"Welcome, welcome. Don't panic, you've all completed the trial, here is the reward space." The old man said with a comforting smile at the crowd of confused people.
Suddenly his gaze landed in a certain young man and his pupils constricted. "A Beyonder?"
The young man seem to have noticed his stare and gazed back at him curiously, then a smirk appeared on the young man's face as though he had recognised something about the old man.
The old man's attention was then drawn as someone asked. "Since this is the reward space, why is there not a single treasure here." The crowd of thirteen people glanced at the old man with the same question on their faces.
The old man chuckled. "Alright then, see those stars around you? They contain techniques, materials and treasures that I forefather Ouyang Fen had gathered during his long life."
The people were still confused. A young man suddenly stretched his hands outwards and touched a dull star not too far from him.
He encountered a slight resistance, but it was nothing much to him. Using his mental strength, he completely crushed the barrier.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was though the dim star light had been snuffed out completely as it darkened then with a plop, a pill fell into his hands.
The young man was surprised to see it was a low grade energy replenishing pill. Although it was of the lowest grade, the fact that the star light contained treasures was entirely true.
There was no need for anyone to say any further, the crowds of teenagers immediately burst into action. A particularly smart guy went for a relatively bright light, but was severely injured by the counterattack of the treasures.
More than six people were sent flying backwards making the other seven people weary. In a couple of seconds, they had figured out how to acquire treasures, by smashing the proactive barrier with force and then quickly grabbing the treasure within before the others snatched it.
Vather calmly glanced at the chaos happening all around him. He ignored them completely and as for the soul of the old man, he only smiled at it and proceeded to move towards the brightest light.
He glanced at the light, and then the three people that were underneath the light with their arms outstretched to touch the light.
It was at that moment, he noticed David amongst the group of dazed people. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
The trial wasn't so easy to pass and had even required him to use his true ability to pass the last trial. He was impressed.
"A pity he didn't want to work under me." Vather shook his head and extended his hand, a mechanical sound rang out as his index finger elongated.
Whoosh!
It moved silently and stabbed at David's skull.
