《Becoming God of a Dystopian World 》Chapter 37: Master of Riddles
Advertisement
A young man entered the building through the missing door at the entrance.
"Wait, wait."
The man said as he ran towards the teleportation circle.
Zhao Luo stepped a little back to give the new guy some space to stand in the circle.
As the man moved towards the group, Zhao Luo could see his face.
'Wow if it wasn't for his voice, I would have thought of him as a girl.'
Zhao Luo thought as he focused on the man's features.
With a slim body and a girly face, he had his shiny black hair swinging left and right as he ran towards the circle.
His face wasn't just girly, it was so attractive that if someone saw him they would keep on looking at him.
While Zhao Luo was thinking about his looks, the young man approached them and entered the circle.
"Hello guys, I am Yan."
The man, who looked like a beautiful woman to Zhao Luo, said to everyone while looking at them.
He glanced over everyone and didn't know anyone except Brother Sang because Sang was famous in the 2nd City.
While Feng Mei and her two subordinates weren't known to him as they may be royalty but were from the 1st City.
'String.'
His eyes passed over Zha Luo as they were standing close to each other and as if his heart skipped a beat when he saw Zhao Luo.
"Nice to meet you, I am Zhao Luo."
Zhao Luo said when he realized that this new entry was looking at him.
"Me yan. Hehe."
Yan's senses were in shambles as he replied to Zhao Luo, with a red cheek.
"Teleporting."
The porter said as he couldn't handle watching them anymore.
'Finally.'
Zhao Luo thought as they all disappeared together.
"So annoying."
The porter said as peace finally descended around him.
A black building stood tall in the middle of the 1st City. It was way bigger than the other black building of the other cities.
This building had the teleportation circle of the 1st City.
Inside the building, the Circle was empty, for now. The porter standing next to the rod was bored as the 2nd City's people were running late.
"Yawn."
This circle was at least 3 times bigger than the one that Zhao Luo saw on the 2nd City.
"Woooosh."
While the porter was yawning, his yawn was interrupted by the sudden teleportation of Zhao Luo's group.
This time Zhao Luo had his eyes closed as he didn't want to go through another headache because of this.

"Welcome to the 1st City."
The porter welcomed them as he scanned through the people who came from the 2nd City.
"Oh My, Welcome back my Queen."
The porter respectfully said while bowing in front of the little Feng Mei. This caused a confused look to appear on Yan's face.
Yan looked around and saw that Zhao Luo was looking at her and pointed her finger between Feng Mei and the porter as if asking.
'Is she really a Queen?'
Zhao Luo could understand Yan as he went through something similar before too.
'Nod.'
Zhao Luo nodded while smiling at Yan.
The porter was giving so much respect to the queen was because he was from the Feng Family too, otherwise, no such reaction from any porter would be seen.
Feng Mei nodded at the porter and with Zhao Luo, Brother Sang, Yan, and her two subordinates moved out of the circle this leaving the building.
Brother Sang was leading the way to the Xin Sect's Branch.
The Xin Sect's Branch in the 1st City was where the entrance exam would take place.
According to the time, the test would be starting soon. So instead of letting Zhao Luo sightsee around the city, he made his way towards the Sect's Branch first.
"How long till we reach the Sect building?"
Zhao Luo asked Brother Sang while walking.
"Elder brother we will be there soon. It isn't that far away."
Feng Mei answered Zhao Luo before Brother Sang could even open his mouth.
This was another shocking moment for Yan.
'The queen of the Royal Feng's just called this handsome guy, her elder brother. What?'
Yan thought as royalty calling a guy 'elder brother' will only happen if the guy is from an extraordinary background or if he is someone extraordinary.
But she didn't know that Zhao Luo wasn't from any type of background. He was just a little special.
Especially to Brother Sang and now to Feng Mei too in just a small encounter.
While Yan was going through different realizations a voice was heard.
"So this is the Xin Sect."
"Yes, Xin Sect's examination center for the people of the Xin Mountain Range who want to join the sect."
Zhao Luo exclaimed as Brother Sang explained to him properly.
They had reached a Big Building which was three-story high.
The building was painted with some mystical colors which would reflect an otherworldly kind of beauty in the onlooker's eyes.
"Yes, let's go in."
Brother Sang said to them. Then they all followed Brother Sang who had entered the building.

When they entered the building right after stepping their first foot inside, it was like they had warped to someplace else.
As the inside of the building was around ten times larger than how it looked from the outside.
"Intriguing."
Zhao Luo commented as he felt his head shake a little when he entered the building.
It was like the entrance of the sect building had spitted him to this place.
Then he moved his sight towards the front and saw many people standing there. There were more than a thousand and everyone was standing comfortably. This just showed him how amazingly big this hall was.
"So they are all here to participate in the entrance exam. Xin Sect sure is popular."
Zhao Luo guessed as he said it to Brother Sang.
"Yes and No."
Brother Sang said as he looked around the people, many of which were looking at Zhao Luo's group too. Brother Sang continued to the explanation of his answer.
"Some of them are like me. Guiding their acquaintances here while others are like Queen Feng Mei's subordinates. They are just here to accompany the one who will be taking the entrance exam."
Brother Sang told Zhao Luo. This was a comforting explanation for Zhao Luo as the number of people taking the exam would then be lessened to quite a lot.
"That's better."
Zhao Luo said.
"Everyone here to participate in the exam, kindly move up to the first floor."
A Majestic voice rang out. Nobody could figure out, where the voice came from. As the mysterious voice was giving them the feeling of nearness as well as coming from afar.
Yet only Zhao Luo had his eyes in one place.
He was looking upwards towards the first floor with his eyes slanted as he tried to see through the concrete above him.
"Well, my eyes aren't so good yet."
He looked away as the concrete of the wall didn't permit his eyes to look ahead. It's common not to be able to look through walls.
The first floor of the Sect's Building, 1st City.
"Haha, we have an interesting one."
A man who looked young said but the next instant he looked like an old man.
Everyone who was here to participate in the entrance exam started walking up to the 1st floor through the stairs.
"Well let's go little sister."
Zhao Luo said to Feng Mei as Feng Mei smiled at him.
"I will go with you too."
Yan also butted in Zhao Luo's and Feng Mei's conversation.
"The more the merrier."
Zhao Luo told him and thus the group of three with Zhao Luo as their leader was formed.
Before they started moving up through the stairs, Brother Sang put his hand on Zhao Luo's shoulder.
"Good Luck Brother Luo. It's all on how you perform on the entrance exam."
Brother Sang wished Zhao Luo well and then nodded at Feng Mei and Yan when he looked at them.
Zhao Luo with Feng Mei next to him and Yan on his left started walking upwards with the countless others who were going up too.
After a while, they reached the top, and soon everyone participating in the entrance exam was already there.
"There is even less than half."
Zhao Luo wondered as he looked around him.
If there were more than a thousand people when they had entered, now it was around more than half of that. There were still 678 people here on the first floor ready to take the entrance exam of the Xin Sect.
"Welcome."
The same voice, which had told them to move up, sounded again.
Everyone was looking around to find who was behind this voice but couldn't find him.
The first floor was also like a big hall.
Only Zhao Luo was looking at the middle of the whole floor.
"Haha, it will be fun to test you. I can't wait to get it started."
A voice rang in only Zhao Luo's ears.
'Who?'
Zhao Luo asked.
"You will know soon."
The voice said while laughing lightly.
The lights of the hall turned off as darkness befell on them.
"Strength can be found, even in the weakest person, if one only remembers to look for the reason of that strength."
The voice said.
"Just like how it's dark right now but even with the dimmest light, this darkness will fall."
The voice said again mysteriously as from the center of the hall a little light could be seen.
The darkness disappeared as if that light had eaten away that darkness.
The old man who was talking to them could be seen with his finger pointing upwards, and a dim light could be seen burning on his fingertip.
"I am the 2nd Elder of the Xin Sect. I will be supervising the exams this time."
The old man introduced himself and told them about his role.
The Xin Sect had many elders yet there wad ten elders below the Sect leader who were ranked according to their seniority from 1-10.
The elder who was the eldest in seniority was the First Elder. Yet the most Famous ranked elder was the Second Elder.
"It's the Master of Riddles."
One of the participants said with a ghastly face while looking at the old man.

Those Zombies Again
One day Sam wakes up in a world full of zombies and tries to survive.PSFirst of all i would not recommend this novel if you haven't read like hundred of novels already. Its pretty weird and depressing novel.This story is told almost completely from MC point of view. Third person.MC is a pretty ugly random guy with different psychological problems. He is antisocial and limited person.Lore - Since MC is limited and barely interested in people or just surroundings, you will get pretty limited descriptions on stuff, it was meant to be like that.Characters - Obviously for the same reason, you will not see much characters, usually you wont get their description or even names.Fights - I personally hate those fights in novels which take like few chapters to describe some shitty encounters. For example MC is making his "move" and then you get half chapter of description of his thoughts and the ways his face is looking, and the way like his opponent surprised and the way crowd is reacting and so on. I really hate all that shit so fights in this novel will be described not that often, only if an equal or a new opponent, and only in a strict and straightforward way, no bullshit.Now this novel is not exactly fantasy, its more like grim realistic-fantasy.But i will have to explain what i mean. Lets take rape in most novels as an example. Usually MC will be justified to rape a girl one way or another. Common example is aphrodisiac. Or the girl were trying to kill him so he had to "punish" her. Or she just happened to jump on his thing and then after rape she become his girlfriend etc, Those are examples of "fan service" in novel. So MC would be justified and readers woun't feel too uncomfortable to read something like that.So there is no "fan service" in this novel, like at all. You will have to read some stuff that will make you feel uncomfortable and you woun't like it.Common sense also means that there is barely gonna be any "random" events which MC is gonna be part of. No treasures and superpowers he founds because he is "special". He will not meet antagonists on his way.This novels world will not spin around MC in any way. He will usually sit in his deep cave and no one around will give a damn about him or even know of his existence.So this novel is not for you to have fun and enjoy reading. Not to make you feel comfortable, satisfied or happy.Its probably the opposite.There are some standards which novel usually sticks to in order to become popular. Obviously i did not meet those standards at all.
