After Luo Yuan destroyed Hengshan God King, he stripped him of all his treasures. But when he examined the God King's memories, he discovered something even more interesting: Hengshan God King was merely an agent another God King had stationed outside.

Luo Yuan had never expected much from Hengshan God King, but he had completed his first selection mission with ease. Under the Supreme Hall's rules, however, each challenge was not conducted individually. Instead, all challengers carried out their missions within the same time bracket and were ranked at the end.
