Lourain decided to stop there, having achieved his goal.
Back in the isolated space, Fane stood in front of the fifth room. It was pitch black inside as usual, which Fane was used to. He walked right into the fifth room.
The black iron difficulty had three steel-armored fighters in the fifth room. There were a total of seven rooms in the Killing Hall. Based on the difficulty, the first three rooms were usually much easier.
Even if they increased the number of steel-armored fighters, the difficulty was still comparatively weaker. After all, they were steel-armored fighters in the end. The second and third rooms were different.
These two rooms had silver-armored fighters, while the last challenge—which was the hardest one—had the golden-armored fighter. The gold difficulty was similar to the black iron difficulty. The challenge was basically split into three, and the easiest ones were the fourth to seventh rooms.
The further one got, the harder it would be. Fane was entering the fifth room. It was still quite easy for the gold difficulty. It was because of this that many people felt like Fane had a very low chance of succeeding overall.
After all, even at just the third stage, it was already difficult in their opinion.
Fane had more rooms awaiting him. In everyone's hearts, even if he was the most powerful warrior in the Whirling World, he might not be able to complete the challenge smoothly.
The challenge was just too difficult. Furthermore, there was an age restriction as well. Any warrior who entered the Whirling World would be under certain restrictions no matter how strong they were. In everyone's hearts, the gold difficulty was not something 60-year-old or younger warriors could challenge.
The black mist disappeared after Fane stepped into the fourth room, and four silver-armored fighters stood in front of him. Even though everyone expected this, the crowd could not hold back their surprise.
It was just the fifth room, yet Fane had to challenge four silver-armored fighters. It was hard to imagine how difficult the challenges ahead would be.
Facing the four silver-armored fighters, Fane remained calm. Anyone else would have attempted to compose themselves in the corridor and ready themselves in their best state before they commenced the next challenge, but he did not need it at all.
Even though he rested in the corridor for a moment, it had not been even five minutes before he walked into the fifth room.
Looking at Fane slowly walking into the fifth room, the spectators felt rather indifferent to the feeling.
Even those who challenged the black iron difficulty needed at least an hour in the corridor to compose themselves and recover, but Fane did not seem to need it. It was as if the two battles he finished were just as simple as having lunch. It had not affected Fane at all.
Even if they ignored his abilities, just his immense mental fortitude was not something they could compete against. It was as if he was stronger than them in every way!
Possibly because he did not want to waste any more time, or because he did not care about the silver-armored fighters at all, Fane immediately attacked the moment the black mist dispersed. The four armored fighters surrounded Fane just like in the seventh room, trying to cut off any path Fane had.
Fane did not need to fall back at all. This time, he used Destroying the Void to defeat two silver-armored fighters before dealing with the other two. In a matter of seconds, the four silver-armored fighters turned into light and were absorbed by the array.
