The mystery realm continued to tremble hardly and soon, the sky seemed to be split open.
There was a subtle light emitting from above and when the demons who were still trying to break open the barrier saw this, they quickly trembled in fear as they retreated swiftly.
Their retreat shocked Elder Jing, Yang Wei, Lian Xinyue, and the rest of the people in the cave as they didn't know what happened to them.
"What is this phenomenal scene?" Lian Xinyue mumbled softly as she never expected the demons would retreat hastily despite their relentless effort in trying to prey on them.
"I don't know, but I believe it has to do with that subtle light emitting from the sky…" Elder Jing suddenly said as she walked outside the cave.
Afterward, she looked above her and was mesmerized by the scene in front of her.
'This scene never happened the last time… Just why is this mystery realm acting so differently.' Elder Jing pondered inwardly.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Swift Feather Sect disciples also head outside when the area seems to be safe.
There were no more demons in the surrounding area as they seemed to have retreated into an unknown place.
"Woah, that subtle light is beautiful," Lian Xinyue said loudly as she stared at the beaming light in excitement.
The rest also have the same feelings as Lian Xinyue and they all decided to bask themselves in the light.
However, Yang Wei seemed to become a statue as he felt a familiar feeling emitting from the subtle light, almost like he had seen it before.
"I have never seen it in my life but why do I keep getting a feeling of familiarity from it," Yang Wei mumbled softly.
Unknown to Yang Wei, the subtle light suddenly beamed at Yang Wei in a swift motion while being concealed as it entered inside his core.
His spiritual core that was white color started to change to a golden color for a brief moment before changing back to white.
The action was extremely fast where no one has detected the action and not even Yang Wei who directly felt the effect seem to realize it.
Sometime later, the unconscious disciples from the Tyrant Lion Sect and Phoenix Sky Sect started floating in the air as they weren't conscious to remain still on the ground.
One by one, they started floating toward the subtle light before vanishing from the mystery realm.
"Seems like even the eviction of the mystery realm is different from before," Elder Jing mumbled softly as she realized the weakest person in the group gets evicted first.
Soon, the subtle light started absorbing the Swift Feather Sect disciples as they were forcibly airborne toward it and vanished like the previous disciples.
'Ah damn it, why am I the next one?' Lian Xinyue cried inwardly as she felt her body start losing control and she was suspended midair before being thrown toward the subtle light.
However, her expression became dumbfounded when she noticed the next person to follow after her was not Yang Wei.
Instead, it was Elder Pao Huang who held a bitter smile when he realized the mystery realm determined he was weaker than Yang Wei.
Yang Wei was also confused by this development as he expected himself to be the next one after Lian Xinyue.
'It seemed like the mystery realm doesn't determine the weakness of the cultivator by their cultivation base…' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly as he noticed the cultivation base between the people that were evicted were varied.
Some had their cultivation base stronger than others but it seemed to be ignored as they were evicted faster than some with a lower cultivation base.
"Who do you think it's next after that stinky brat?" Elder Pan Cheng suddenly laughed as he regained most of his true qi thanks to Elder Jing's miraculous pill.
"Heh, why are you acting so haughty when the next person is definitely going to be you." Elder Fang Yunru smirked as he was confident in his strength against Elder Pan Cheng.
While Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru began their betting, a voice suddenly intervened.
"You two are too confident in your ability if you think Yang Wei would be the next person."
Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru tilted their heads to glance at Elder Jing with a gawking expression.
"I admit that you're strong but aren't you being a bit too much by thinking that stinky brat is going after us," Elder Pan Cheng snorted as he refused his quality is worse than Yang Wei's.
Although Elder Fang Yunru stayed silent, his expression was basically agreeing with Elder Pan Cheng's words.
Elder Jing shrugged her shoulders and said, "I wasn't asking for your approval anyway. The mystery realm would soon evict the two of you… probably at the same time as well."
Elder Pan Cheng twitched his brows as he wanted to punch Elder Jing already if it weren't for him being weaker than her and afraid of her dreadful aura.
Alas, he didn't need to hold his frustration any longer as the subtle light suddenly shot out two beams of light that were targeting Elder Fang Yunru and Elder Pan Cheng.
"What the- Is this mystery realm stupid or what? How could they choose us over that stinky brat?" Elder Pan Cheng held a disbelief expression as he pointed at Yang Wei who was standing calmly whereas he was being pulled up forcibly into the air.
'To think that I would lose to a greenhorn as the prideful elder from the Phoenix Sky Sect…' Elder Fang Yunru sighed inwardly as he wondered if this is the time for the new generation to rise.
However, his thinking was cut abruptly when the subtle light ignored them as it directly evicted them as soon as possible, leaving only Elder Jing and Yang Wei alone.
"Looks like the mystery realm didn't disregard me this badly." Elder Jing then smiled at Yang Wei when she saw the subtle light starting to hover over her.
Yang Wei was dumbfounded as he knew more than everyone that he should have been the first one to be evicted.
"H-How am I the last one?" Yang Wei asked with his eyesight on Elder Jing, seemingly hoping for an answer.
