As Sam watched the entire process happen, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and he immediately turned his attention to the statue's face.
In place of the previously existing stone eyes replaced a pair of electric blue eyes with dark blue pupils.
Those eyes were staring straight at him. He felt a huge pressure on him as eyes fell on him as if they wanted to see through his soul.
For the first time, Sam felt a sense of inferiority for a long time.
He did not expect that he would feel it after so many years. He felt the same sense of inferiority when he was a child in his previous life. Half of his life had passed just to overcome it, and now in this new life, he felt the same way again.
His mind suddenly felt cloudy. The darkest parts of his past begin to reappear.
Suddenly, Sam clenched his fists hard and gnashed his teeth. He straightened his bent knee and raised his head to resist.
He looked straight into those big blue eyes.
He didn't want to experience the same feeling anymore and he wouldn't let a being no matter how superior made it through the event again.
When the eyes saw Sam's actions, the pressure increased and Sam felt as if he was carrying the entire mountain.
But Sam didn't budge, he didn't want to kneel or fall in love with this creature. The eyes that were filled with contempt only made him even more determined.
Sam continued for five minutes and there was already a crack on the floor, but he did not let his knee limp and suddenly there was a cracking sound coming from his bones.
Sam clenched his jaw to endure the pain and then suddenly the pressure disappeared.
Sam was sweating bullets, he started to pant.
His eyes became cold and gloomy. A voice sounded in his head.
"No wonder you're such a coward as the Gambler does, you're like he's a stubborn pest who refuses to budge."
When Sam heard this though he was shocked by the sudden statement and the details mentioned in the statement, anger still enveloped his mind and he let the statement slide for a while.
He looked at the statue with an ice-cold look and when he saw the humiliation deep within those eyes, he could not help but hold back.
He pulled out the executioner's sword.
Katana released an extremely ferocious aura and this was the result of the absorption of Hydra blood. The sword had fully absorbed the blood essence and was now almost a fifth rank weapon.
He took out a large energy cell that was the size of a ball of a foot and dropped it onto the floor.
Sam placed his left foot on the energy cell filled with wind element energy and started directing everything to the sword.
He looked at the blue eyes that suddenly looked curious.
Within two minutes, the energy cell was empty of energy and the executioner's sword was filled with ferocious and sharp energy.
Sam crushed the empty cell under his feet and jumped into the air leaving the cracked tile floor.
Blue eyes showed a different expression of contempt and curiosity for the first time.
This time, they showed surprise.
Sam leaped towards those big eyes and with a slash, the executioner's sword met the statue right on the forehead.
With a huge vertical slash, the statue split into two vertically.
The light in the eyes faded and they returned to normal stone eyes.
Sam landed on the debris that fell on the ground.
At this moment, all the candidates woke up from their meditative state and were already moving backwards.
They looked at Sam in a daze and were a little scared at the same time, they all felt a terrifying aura from before.
As they watched, they could see that there was blood dripping from Sam's right hand. His hand could not even take the blow.
Some of them were clearly disturbed by the sudden disturbance, but they did not dare to confront Sam about it when they sensed the frightening aura and killing intent that Sam emitted.
Sam looked at the statue and said.
"I don't know who you are and if you are a god or a demon, I don't know who that gambler is and I don't even know how strong you all are and most importantly I don't even know if you can hear me.
If yes, remember my words, if there is a way for me to find you and reach you, you better kill me before the day comes, he said, or you'd wish you'd never seen me on this day."
With those words, Sam stepped back and found a clean spot before sitting there.
He removed the coat revealing a deformed arm with all the broken bones and protruding beyond the skin.
The candidates saw the most terrifying scene they had ever done.
The bones were joined slowly and then Sam began to heal his flesh.
Within ten minutes his arm was as good as before.
But the most important thing was that Sam did not even have a single change in expression when he did all this.
It was as if the arm he had cut was not his.
Sam closed his eyes while calming himself down.
Nicholas approached her and sat down beside her before asking.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
At this moment Sam saw Arman who was also staring at him, there was an invisible tension as their gazes locked.
Sam knows why.
That person whoever it is somehow related to Arman and with what Sam did, the two are now rivals if not sworn enemies.
But Sam didn't care and closed his eyes again.
Everyone in the room including Arthur walked on the eggshell for the remaining time and they felt like dancing when the time for the next floor came and the door opened.
Now only the sixth floor remained and from the side of the thunder god temple only Sam, Arthur and Arman were qualified to come from the first wave of participants.
Three of them entered the sixth floor and Sam once again saw the symbol above the ceiling.
The same image he had seen at the beginning of this entire palace journey still existed, but this time, Sam did not look at it with curiosity but with hostility.
He did not like that feeling of inferiority. Many of his buttons were pressed and there was no way he could release them. He had to at least beat that person before he felt better.
But there's a long time for that to be impossible in the near future.
Sam shook his head to shift his focus and walked towards the door. He did not wait for the other two and entered the room.
Other candidates also started to enter one by one and there were three candidates from each region.
Eighteen people.
A familiar holographic screen came along and displayed a row of letters.
"Congratulations on getting this far. This was the last room and the most precious treasure of this palace would be here.
Now, the final exam is about to begin.
There are three treasures that are a reward for this and you can take them without any tests. The only thing you have to do is repair the treasure with your spiritual imprint and it will be yours.
All the candidates had to try and make a trace on the treasure and the person with the strongest will and mental strength along with the higher purity of spiritual energy won.
There are three treasures and one can try to refine all three at once or one at a time, there are only seven days until the end of one month and these seven days are the only time you have.
Three treasures will appear before you in a moment.
Good luck."
The words on the screen were followed by a mechanical sound and after it was finished, three different platforms came out.
Each Platform comes out with a transparent sphere on it and there is an object inside that sphere.
There is a name on the Platform that indicates the identity of the object.
In the middle of the Platform is Saber with a silver handle and the blade is made of electric blue metal.
There are tags with words. "The Lightning Storm Sword."
The one on the left is a scroll with a name. "Roll Transfer."
The one on the right was a small cage in the shape of a bird cage and was named "Thunder Prison".
Sam saw three things and his eyes were fixed on the Transfer Scroll.
He didn't really need the other two as he was confident and satisfied with the weapons he had, but if he could, he would, he would still take out the Thunder Prison which might be a defensive item and if at the time he took out two treasures, the sword was still there, it was still there, he can make himself comfortable by taking it and he can sell it at a very expensive price.
