When this voice rang out, all three members of Lin Fan's group were surprised.

They turned in the direction of this voice and they found that there was a cloaked figure that was standing in the middle of the room, in between them and the old woman. This figure was completely covered in their cloak, so they couldn't see what this person looked like, but they were certain that they hadn't sensed this person until the moment this person chose to reveal themselves.

If this person had wanted to hurt them, they definitely wouldn't have noticed them until it was too late.

But as for whether this person could hurt Lin Fan and Wang Jian, that was a completely different story.

Based on the aura that came from that person, it was clear that they were only in the Low Embryo Soul Realm. However, it was a fact that they had been unable to detect this person the entire time which meant that they must have some kind of special technique for hiding.

Or they would have a deep understanding of the law that they were using to hide themselves with.

Lin Fan asked Brainy, "Did you sense this person at all."

Brainy was silent for a bit before saying, "I couldn't sense them at all."

There was a bit of aggrievement in its voice when it said this.

In the end, Brainy was still too weak because it hadn't broken through to the next realm just yet. If it had broken through, there would have been a quantitative leap in its spiritual sense and it most likely would have been able to sense that cloaked person.

That cloaked person could feel Lin Fan's group looking at them and they turned to look at Lin Fan's group. Or rather that person was looking at Lin Fan quite intensely. It was almost as if this cloaked person recognized Lin Fan, but Lin Fan definitely didn't know him.

As Lin Fan was about to say something, the old woman cut in and said, "Very good, it seems like you've all passed."

Wang Jian immediately asked, "What prize do we get for this game?"

But Lin Fan also looked away from the cloaked person and asked, "What did you do with all the other people? Where did your people carry them off to?"

At this, the three other examinees, including the cloaked person all looked at Lin Fan in a surprised manner.

The old woman just stood there with a faint smile on her face without saying a thing.

Wang Jian looked at Lin Fan and asked, "Brother Lin, what do you mean by that?"

But Lin Fan didn't bother explaining as he just looked right at the old woman.

The others might not have sensed it, but he had been able to detect what had happened after they had left anyone unconscious behind them.

He had only left the ants on the unconscious people just in case they woke up again and started moving around, so he would be able to track them if they started playing in this game again. However, he, or rather Brainy, had found that they had all been taken away by people in black clothes that appeared out of the wall, wheeling them away to an unknown place since they had gone out of the range of Brainy's detection.

The one thing he knew was that they were no longer on this ship since Brainy's spiritual sense should have been strong enough to cover the entire airship.

Finally the old woman said, "You really have some pretty good detection skills, it really is strange how you didn't detect this other kid."

Then she said, "You don't have to worry about them, shouldn't you be worried about yourselves first?"

When Lin Fan and the other examinees heard this, they immediately pulled out their weapons.

But the old woman still had the same smile as she released a bit of her aura, forcing them all back a single step. Then after that, she started laughing as she said, "Why are you all so serious? I've already said that you've passed, so there's no need to be this tense."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and said, "But you've never told us what we've passed."

The old woman then revealed a serious look and said, "The four of you are the only ones that have passed the Hunters Exam this year, congratulations."

"Huh?"

That was the one and only answer that they had in response to this.

Lin Fan knitted his brows and asked, "Isn't this just a game before the third round? How can it be that we've passed the Hunters Exam already?"

The old woman then said, "I never said that there would be a third round did I? I only said that this wasn't the third round. After all, this is the final round, so how could it be the third round?"

Lin Fan thought about it and he realized that the old woman was right. She had indeed only said that this wasn't the third round, but she never said that there would be a third round after this.

Lin Fan still couldn't help asking, "What happened to the others though?"

The old woman looked at Lin Fan for a bit before suddenly turning around and saying, "Follow me."

Lin Fan and the others were still cautious since they couldn't confirm if what this old woman said was true or not, but they did follow her since the best way to find out was to see what she wanted to show them. Not to mention that based on the sliver of her aura that she released, they already knew that they wouldn't be able to beat her in a fight anyway.

The old woman came to the wall and pulled on one of the torch stands, opening up a secret passage.

She led them through the secret passage and came to the hangar of the airship.

When she arrived, the people in black immediately stood up to salute her, but she just waved her hand to make them move to the side before coming to the only curved wall here. She then gave a nod to the person by the handle and then that person pulled the handle to open the hangar doors.

The moment the hangar doors opened, there was a strong wind that came in, but at their levels of cultivation, this wind wasn't considered that strong. Lin Fan and the others carefully made their way to the edge, making sure to leave some distance between them and everyone else here just in case.

When they looked out the edge, they found that there was another airship following them from a distance and on the deck, there were a few other examinees that had been in the test with them.

Once she saw that they had seen the other airship, the old woman said, "We tossed all the ones that were eliminated down to that other ship where there's a medical crew waiting to treat them. None of their lives were in danger, no matter how much you injured them."

Hearing this, Wang Jian was the one to knit his brows this time.

The old woman saw this and said with a smile, "There was one strange case where someone was poisoned. However, it was such a weak poison that the doctors decided that it was better if nothing was done for them and let the poison be naturally filtered out by their body."

Then she shook her head and said, "It really is a strange case, his face was so swollen that we didn't even know what happened to him."

Wang Jian revealed a smile at this and looked at the old woman with a look of gratitude, but he didn't say anything since he knew that it was better if he didn't say anything.

The old woman nodded before turning to Lin Fan and asking, "Do you believe it now?"

Lin Fan looked at her with a surprised look before giving a nod.

He didn't know why this old woman cared so much about what he thought, but he could tell that she placed quite the importance on what he thought.

The old woman then said, "Old Qiao really has good eyes, he's picked up a treasure this time."

When he heard this, Lin Fan immediately understood what she meant.

She was the Qiao Family ancestor's acquaintance and adding in the position that she should have in the Hunters Organization based on how Shi Yan had reacted when he met her, she should be one of the top leaders of the Hunters Organization.

So Lin Fan changed his attitude and gave a slight bow before saying, "I'm not worthy of such praise."

The old woman gave a nod as she looked at Lin Fan with even more appreciation.

It seemed like this kid wasn't just headstrong, he knew how to act humble when it suited him. People who understood when to go forth and when to back down were people who could go far because they knew how to balance the friends and enemies that they made.

In a place like the upper realm which had the law of the jungle, having both friends and enemies was good.

Friends would help you when you were in trouble and enemies could be used to grind your blade to make yourself stronger. It was important for an expert to find the right balance between the two.

The old woman looked at Lin Fan for a bit and made a decision.

When she went back, she would tell Old Qiao to find a way to bring this kid into their Hunters Organization. He was definitely a talent that they could nurture to lead the Hunters Organization in the future.

As for how…wasn't Old Qiao's granddaughter missing a fiance?
