As everyone focused on those ten people, their names flashed rapidly across the light screen.
Philosopher, Phantom Deer, Netherfire, Devil Gourmet, Li Zhixi Liu...
As the names flashed one after another, ten cards emerged from the light screen at once and scattered in all directions amid a whirlwind.
The moment they caught the cards, everyone seemed to hear the sound of shattering glass.
Looking closely, they saw that the barrier restricting their movements in the plaza had vanished, and the road leading to the mountaintop lay before them.
They exchanged glances. In the end, Philosopher took the lead and stepped onto the road.
With no clouds to block it, the blazing sunlight poured down. The clear yellow road shimmered with a golden halo, as though it truly were a path carpeted in the splendor of glory.
The apprentices atop the stone pillars watched the ten people head toward the summit, envy flickering in their eyes. Yet those standing upon the pillars were themselves the objects of envy for the spectators in the outer stands.
The spectators' perspective was actually different from reality.
Unlike the Troll Sea or the other arenas before it, they could not see the overall view of the Glory Road. All they could see was the scene presented by a special Magic-Energy Eye.
This special perspective was like the "Drama Shadow Box" that had recently exploded in popularity in Sky Mechanical City.
By shifting the camera, it presented the most captivating images.
"Melantha told me that this way of shifting and advancing the scenes was actually borrowed from your Shadow of the Cage," Falina said softly to Angel. "But I still think the transitions in your Shadow of the Cage are more natural."
Angel quietly watched the distant image. "Getting this far is already quite impressive."
