After tearing off the copper lock, the ferocious boar man lifted the lid of the box.

Pei Ze waited patiently for a while, and after making sure that there was no danger, he stepped forward and looked down.

The only thing in the treasure chest was a crystal ball the size of a fist and a note.

Pei Ze picked up the note and looked at it, and it was written how to use the crystal ball.

To his surprise, it was a magical item that stored the probe spell.

When encountering a fork in the road, simply activate the probe spell to guide the correct path to your destination.

The only downside is that the crystal ball only has ten probe spells stored in it, which will be invalid after use.

"Looks like this is the prop that the Dawn Council has prepared for the participants."

The corners of Pei Ze's mouth raised slightly.

With this crystal ball, the rest of the journey is much easier.

As for what to do after using the number of probe spells. This kind of crystal ball, there must be more than one in the maze.

As long as you get enough crystal balls, you can reach the center of the maze all the way.

And if you want to get a crystal ball, there are only two ways.

The first is to find a room with a treasure chest and open it after defeating the guardian monsters.

The second is to find the Wizard Apprentice who is holding the Crystal Ball and take it from them.

"Sure enough, I knew that the Dawn Council would definitely find ways to intensify the confrontation between the participants."

Pei Ze snorted and picked up the crystal ball.

At that moment, he suddenly looked at the exit on the other side of the room.

With the sound of slight footsteps, three men walked in through the doorway.

As soon as they met, both sides were stunned.

Pei Ze's gaze swept over the gray robes on the three of them, and through the gap in the neckline, he could clearly see the leather armor inside.

City Guards? Or the Silverlight Legion?

At the same time, the three men were also looking at Pei Ze with a wary expression.

When their eyes fell on the crystal ball in Pei Ze's hand, the eyes of the three of them lit up together.

"Probe the crystal ball!"

The three of them glanced at each other, and the tacit understanding dispersed, surrounding Pei Ze while blocking the exits on both sides of the room.

"Hand over the crystal ball, and we'll let you go!"

One of the three men looked to be in his thirties and had a rough face, saying coldly.

The other two also stared at Pei Ze with menace on their faces.

Looking at that look, once Pei Ze refused, they would immediately take action.

But to their surprise, in the face of the three of them, the kid in front of them not only did not have the slightest fear and anxiety, but showed a happy smile.

Pei Ze was certainly pleased.

Since the three of them could recognize the crystal ball in his hand, it means that they had also done it before.

Then they are likely to have a crystal ball on them at this time.

Just now, he was still thinking about where to find the crystal ball, and someone would take the initiative to send it to the door, could he not be happy?

Mountainside.

Night has fallen.

Yet almost no one chose to leave.

Many of the apprentices picked up stones from the ground and applied light to act as a temporary light source.

The dense light source illuminates the entire mountainside as if it were daytime.

Everyone was still staring intently at the light curtain, reluctant to look away.

As more and more people are eliminated, the number of images of sky light curtains is gradually decreasing.

By this time, there were only more than fifty images left.

During this period, the attention of Gu Rin, Yin Guang, Meng Kai and others has been on Pei Ze's actions.

Because of this, they all showed surprise after watching the whole process of Pei Ze killing the minotaur.

"That's amazing!"

"That's a minotaur, it's so easy to kill!"

"Pei Ze is still as strong as ever!"

The wizard apprentices of the Tower Academy were amazed.

In contrast, several students from the Phantom Academy looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

They have always thought that the rumors that Pei Ze had killed the legendary knight have water, and the authenticity is debatable.

But now it seems that the rumors are probably true!

Not to mention the moisture, Pei Ze's strength is even more powerful than rumored.

Being able to kill a minotaur so easily, Pei Ze's strength is already the top handful among the many participants.

I'm afraid that except for a few people such as Sang Fan, Meng Wei and Su Shouhai, no one can beat him.

Meng Kai also understood this, and his face had already become extremely gloomy.

Breaking his head, he couldn't imagine that a first-year student could be so powerful.

"Damn, what's going on with this kid?"

Meng Kai was secretly anxious in his heart, and he didn't have the previous sure victory.

The strength Pei Ze showed at this moment had already made him feel threatened.

In case he really lost the bet to Gu Rin, five hundred magic stone coins would be enough to break his muscles and bones.

Meng Kai could only comfort himself, with Sang Fan, Meng Wei and Su Shouhai here, the three competition places were almost locked, as long as they didn't have an accident, Pei Ze would not be able to get the places.

On the other side, Yin Guang stared at the picture in a trance, and it was difficult to calm down in his heart.

It's one thing to hear about it, it's another thing to actually see Pei Ze kill a legendary knight-level magic creature.

At this moment, he deeply felt the gap between himself and Pei Ze.

Among the crowd, Gu Rin was relatively calm.

She had long guessed that after not seeing her for a while, Pei Ze must have grown by leaps and bounds.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have provoked Meng Kai to make a bet of five hundred magic stone coins.

And the facts proved that Pei Ze really did not disappoint her.

"I made a lot of money this time!"

Gu Rin thought to herself.

But at this moment, a low cry suddenly sounded in her ears, which woke her up from her joy.

Gu Rin subconsciously looked up, but what caught his eye was the scene of Pei Ze and the three wizard apprentices confronting each other.

"The people of the City Guard? Or is it the Silverlight Legion's? ”

"It's the city guards, I recognize the person in the lead, he is Tan Yang."

"Tan Yang? It's really fake, I heard that he is the wizard apprentice whose strength is second only to Sang Fan among the people who participated in the trial this time by the city guards! ”

"That's right, it's him, I know what he looks like."

"Ah, isn't Pei Ze in trouble!"

The sudden change suddenly wiped out the euphoric atmosphere just now.

Everyone in the Tower Academy had a solemn look on their faces.

On the other hand, several Phantom students, including Meng Kai, looked happy.

Tan Yang is quite famous among the participants, and is regarded as the second-tier elite after Meng Wei.

Against such a master, Pei Ze himself was already in a lot of trouble, and with the other two wizard apprentices, he was even less of an opponent.

After all, those who have not been eliminated at this point in time are all strong players with good strength.

But soon, Meng Kai realized one more thing, and his face froze with joy.

In this case, as long as Pei Ze obediently handed over the crystal ball, Tan Yang and the three would definitely not risk being injured and wasting their strength to fight Pei Ze, after all, it would not be good for them to defeat Pei Ze.

In this way, wouldn't Pei Ze's crisis be solved?

Monchedon was disappointed.

But the next moment, the situation in the picture made him dumbfounded.

Pei Ze suddenly raised his hand, and a spell missile blasted out head-on towards Tan Yang and the three of them.

He actually took the initiative to attack!

Coming back to his senses, Monkai was overjoyed.

"Haha, this kid actually took the initiative to find death!"

Yin Guang was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Pei Ze to be so rigid and choose to go to war without saying a word.

Only Gu Rin had a 'sure enough' expression on his face.

As the battle broke out, everyone's eyes were drawn to the screen like a magnet, lest they miss any scene.

Tan Yang and the three of them didn't think that Pei Ze would do it when he said it, and they were caught off guard and were suddenly beaten by the magic missile.

But that's just the beginning.

Without waiting for them to recover, Pei Ze's next spell had already been prepared.

A gray wave that was clearly visible to the naked eye centered on him, and instantly spread out in all directions, sweeping through the entire room.

Panic!

Normally, Panic is not very effective against mentally powerful casters, and at best it can only cause a little panic among casters of the same level.

However, Pei Ze was not using an ordinary panic technique, but an improved and enhanced version.

So much so that after Tan Yang and the three of them were hit, a look of panic and fear appeared in their eyes, and it took half a second to get rid of the influence of the panic technique.

And this time is enough for Pei Ze to make the next move.

As soon as Tan Yang recovered, he saw Pei Ze ghostly appear behind a companion, and the lightning probe pressed his head on his head.

Under the dim firelight, a small electric arc flowing on the surface of Pei Ze's palm could be faintly seen.

Electric claws!

Crackling!

A large number of arcs of electricity suddenly exploded from Pei Ze's palm, and the surging electricity instantly annihilated the mage armor on the surface of the human body.

Then there was another click, and the protective ring on his hand shattered.

Fortunately, after breaking through two layers of protection in a row, the blasted arc finally lost its stamina and disappeared.

But before the man could show his joy, a lightning-like streamer had already struck, submerged into the back of his head, and pierced out of his mouth!

There was a crackling sound, and the electric current that exploded from the blade of the sword shattered the man's head.

From beginning to end, Tan Yang didn't have time to rescue his companion, so he could only watch him die under Pei Ze's sword.

"You guy! Dare to kill someone! Tan Yang said with tears in his eyes.

Pei Ze glanced at him and said lightly: "Since you dare to make a move, you have to be mentally prepared to be killed, I don't understand this reason, you are still a member of the army." ”

Tan Yang was furious, and his eyes were red and he killed Pei Ze.

The other companion woke up from a dream and hurriedly surrounded him from the other direction, but was stopped by the ferocious boar man halfway.

The city guards pay attention to practicality, and their fighting style is quite similar to Pei Ze, which is a combination of physical melee and spells, waiting for opportunities to cast spells to attack the enemy in the interval between melee battles with the enemy.

And this fighting style values two points the most.

The first point is that you must have strong physical fitness.

The second point is that you must be proficient in preparing spells while fighting.

And the best way to do the second thing is to master the spell silent.

But this kind of super magic technique is extremely difficult.

Among the thousands of third-level wizard apprentices in the city guards, only Sang Fan mastered the spell silent.

The rest, even Tan Yang did not grasp it.

However, after actually handing it over, Tan Yang was shocked to find that Pei Ze had suppressed himself on both points.

The other party has already mastered the spell, not to mention the silent hair, and his physical fitness has reached the level of the peak knight, which is a small realm higher than him.

In this case, it didn't take long for him to be beaten by Pei Ze.

And immediately after, he soon realized that something was wrong.

Pei Ze's speed of preparing spells was surprisingly fast, and it was not at all something that could be explained by the silent spell.

And the spells are just as powerful.

The same spell, the power that was cast by his hand, was not even half of Pei Ze's.

"Damn, what the hell is going on with this kid?"

Tan Yang finally realized that he had kicked the iron plate.

The kid in front of him was not one of those weak and bullying academy students at all, but a strong man at the same level as Sang Fan!

It's just that what he can't understand is that the person in front of him obviously looks like he is only sixteen or seventeen years old, why can he be so powerful?

When did Tower Academy produce such a genius?

Even if it's Pei Ze. Wait, Pei Ze!

Tan Yang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly remembered the rumors he heard some time ago.

Could it be that this person in front of him is the Pei Ze who killed the binge drinker and Huo Nan?!

That's right, there's no way there is a second young student of the Tower Academy who is so powerful!

Thinking of this, Tan Yang's mouth suddenly felt bitter.

He never expected that one of the students he met by chance was the rumored genius apprentice.

And this strength is more than a step stronger than the rumors.

"Damn it!"

With another scolding, Tan Yang released his demon pet, a lizard covered with a thick layer of nails.

At the same time, his companion summoned a purple toad that was visibly poisonous.

Seeing this, Pei Ze smiled, and the black bracelet on his wrist suddenly collapsed, turning into a cloud of pitch-black mist.

In the next moment, countless fog crows rushed out of the mist, sweeping towards Tan Yang and their demon pets like a torrent.

Tan Yang's color changed in shock, and he only had time to bless himself with a shield technique, and then he was overwhelmed by the torrent.

Darkness reigned in his vision, and countless claws struck from all directions, striking down on the shields and mage armor on his body.

In an instant, both the shield and the mage's armor were shattered.

At the last moment, Tan Yang activated the secondary stone skin ring he carried with him, and the skin on his body was suddenly dyed with a layer of blue-gray, becoming as indestructible as a golden stone, so that it was not torn to pieces by the fog crow.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a scream came from his ears.

The sound lasted only a moment, and then it stopped abruptly.

Tan Yang's face changed, knowing that his companion was estimated to be more than lucky.

Immediately after that, the connection with the demon pet was also severed, and his lizard demon pet had been killed.

But Tan Yang couldn't care about the distress, and a strong fear appeared in his heart.

He struggled for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, ready to activate the teleportation ring and leave here.

The number of places in the competition is tempting, but in any case, one's own life is more important.

He didn't want to lose his life here like his two companions.

But just as Tan Yang was about to activate the teleportation technique on the ring, he suddenly felt that the pressure around him was light, and the crows suddenly dispersed.

He looked up in amazement, just in time to meet Pei Ze's indifferent gaze.
