Chapter 837: Breaking Through the Military Pagoda
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
“I’ll seize every chance to join the Blood Eagle Guard. I want to try in the Military Pagoda. Could you show me the way?”
“Come with me then,” Asura consented.
Jian Wushuang explained his plan to Ouyang Xuan and the others and followed Asura to the Military Pagoda.
The Blood Eagle Guard was a special organization in the Royal Guard, the elite of the elite.
To join, first one had to be powerful.
The Royal Guard had specially set up the Military Pagoda to test the challengers’ power.
The black pagoda stood towering in the center of the barracks.
“Here it is.”
Asura led Jian Wushuang to the front door of the pagoda. “The test in this tower is very unusual, but it should not be a problem for you to make it to the ninth floor. Once you succeed, you can apply to join the Blood Eagle Guard.”
“I see, thanks.” Jian Wushuang nodded.
“Go on then,” Asura said.
Without hesitation, Jian Wushuang strode into the black tower.
He arrived on the first floor.
This floor was a wide ground made of special materials, very hard, and in the center stood a cold figure.
At a glance, Jian Wushuang could tell it was a Puppet Fighter.
The moment Jian Wushuang went in, the puppet Fighter immediately opened his eyes and started speaking. “Challenger, you only need to hold up under my attacks for half an hour, then you can enter the next floor.”
“Half an hour?” Jian Wushuang repeated.
“Let’s begin.”
Without another word, the Puppet Fighter made his move.
Woosh!
The Puppet Fighter crossed 60 meters in one step, striking out his saber at the same time.
The blade light went straight for Jian Wushuang.

“Well?”
Jian Wushuang had a rather strange look.
He could tell that the Puppet Fighter was in Step Three but not powerful. He could defeat him directly, let alone holding on for half an hour under his attacks.
“It is not difficult to pass the first floor of this Military Pagoda,” Jian Wushuang thought to himself.
He defended himself casually without beating down the Puppet Fighter.
When half an hour had passed, the Puppet Fighter immediately stopped attacking and let Jian Wushuang pass to the second floor.
Walking along the stairs, Jian Wushuang came to the second floor of the tower.
Same as the first floor, the second floor was also a large ground, and his opponents were at the same level as the Puppet Fighter on the first floor. The only difference was that there were two Puppet Fighters waiting for him.
It was the same on the third floor, only there were four Puppet Fighters.
On the fourth floor, there were eight Puppet Fighters.
And so on.
Jian Wushuang was so powerful that even though he had not transformed into an Ancient God, he still overpowered the Puppet Fighters regardless of how high the floor was, or how many more Puppet Fighters he encountered.
Before long, he reached the ninth floor of the tower.
The Puppet Fighters on that floor were in Step Three as well, and there were 256 of them in total.
The Puppet Fighters joined hands to attack Jian Wushuang. They worked together well. Normal Step Four Eternal Realm experts would barely be able to hold on for half an hour, however, Jian Wushuang was extraordinarily powerful and good at dealing with joint attacks.
Back when he was in the Ancient God Clan, he had gained a lot of experience in fighting against joint attacks.

Jian Wushuang looked at ease as he fought with the 256 Puppet Fighters. Soon, half an hour had passed.
He passed through the ninth floor.
On the tenth floor, he encountered 512 Puppet Fighters.
Heavily outnumbered, Jian Wushuang could not fight as leisurely as before. He was suppressed by the Puppet Fighters and struggled for half an hour.
Finally, he passed through the tenth floor.
As for the eleventh floor, since Jian Wushuang did not intend to turn into an Ancient God, it was impossible for him to pass it.
In just a few moments, he was defeated and his challenge ended.
He walked out of the tower.
“How did it go?” Asura immediately asked him.
“Not bad, I made it to the tenth floor.” Jian Wushuang answered with a smile.
“What?! The tenth floor?” Asura was surprised. He looked at Jian Wushuang in amazement.
He had only made it to the ninth floor and failed to pass the tenth after a moment of struggling.
He was surprised that Jian Wushuang was at the same level as him but had made it further than him in the tower.
“Asura, I have passed the tenth floor and met the requirements for joining the Blood Eagle Guard. What should I do next?” Jian Wushuang asked.
“Soon, the Blood Eagle Guard will know that you have broken through the tenth floor. Someone will come to find you and ask if you want to join the Blood Eagle Guard. If you say yes, they will ask you some questions and you will give them your basic information. After they check and confirm it, they will let you join,” Asura replied.
“Is it that simple?” Jian Wushuang frowned hard.
According to what he had heard from Ouyang Xu before, the Blood Eagle Guard’s standards were very high.
However, now it seemed that it was not that high.
“Of course, it’s not that simple.” Asura continued, “To join the Blood Eagle Guard, first you have to be powerful. Generally, you have to have reached Step Four. Another requirement is regarding your identity.”
“Identity?” Jian Wushuang was confused.
“The Blood Eagle Guard is a very special organization. They carry out missions for the royal families, and many of the missions are about the internal conflicts between those families, therefore, they have to act in secret. Naturally, they have some special requirements regarding the identities of their members.”
Asura immediately started explaining.

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!

Bone And Amber: The Inside Story On The Return Of The Dinosaurs
A miracle has been achieved: non-avian, Mesozoic dinosaurs have been brought back to life - not by a technical university or a government programme, but by a venture capitalist concern, for reasons of profit. The social, economic, and political ripples of this development will do much more than enable the simple launch of a theme park for the rich: they will change the world. FAQ: Do I need to know anything about the Jurassic Park franchise to enjoy this? No. This story is not exactly a Jurassic Park fanfic - it is a story about the de-extinction of Mesozoic dinosaurs. While the story begins with some of the events depicted in the Jurassic Park universe, it is very much its own creature, and designed for readers with no prior knowledge of the franchise. It will begin to diverge quite quickly, as well: the dramatic focus will not be on people running around tropical islands trying to be eaten. The whole point of the exercise is to explore the profound consequences and ripples an event like the mass-cloning of extinct animals would generate.Do I need to know anything about dinosaurs to enjoy this? Also no! Sensing a theme yet? Although, if I’ve done my homework correctly, a newbie to the subject will be able to pick up something - not just about the animals themselves, but about their role as a vehicle to better understand the history of life on Earth, and the application of the scientific method to a sadly fragmentary puzzle.Without further ado, please enjoy!

Summoning Shenanigans
Adding in [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Sean was a chemist on Earth with a lovely family life. Everything was going well, until a group of gods decide to summon him to their world. An unfortunate appearance by the trickster god derailed a normal summoning, and now Sean finds himself in a pickle. Content warning: There will be profanity and quite probably some gore, though the point of the story will not revovle around any gory scenes. I'm also including traumatising content as there will for sure be slavery and rape. The rape will be alluded to and not described, there are other places for that. I think this also explains the grimdark tag.
