Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave Chapter 4237 Selecting

There was no room for Geoffrey to resist. Even if there were, he wasn't strong enough. After swaying
around in the air for a while, he was thrown on the back of a spider.

Although his chest had been pierced, the wound was not fatal. He somersaulted and tried to break free
from the spider. He almost succeeded too, but right before he could break free, the sharp teeth on the
back of the spider expanded outwards and formed a cage that imprisoned him. He could move about
very slightly now, but could not break free.

After Geoffrey was captured, most of the spiders scattered towards the back of the path.

However, the one that had captured him ran forwards with its long legs.

Geoffrey knew that he had to break free. After stopping the bleeding from the wound on his chest, he
stretched out his hands and grabbed two of the spider's teeth, trying to break them apart.

However, as soon as the power burst out from his hands, the teeth suddenly turned red. And instantly,
as if two pieces of red-hot soldering iron had scalded his hands, he quickly let go of them. It was as if
he had grabbed a solid fire.

"Great! I can't leave now," Geoffrey sulked, rubbing his hands helplessly.

In the Abstruse Energy World, he had been rather lucky and had not encountered any danger.

Even while facing the most troublesome bronze statues, all he had to do was lure them down and let
Ziya kill them.

This was the first time that he was facing these unknown creatures all by himself. He looked calm on
the outside, but in fact, he was extremely flustered.



His only comfort was the fact that the spider had only trapped him and not swallowed him whole in a
single gulp. Furthermore, the spider was heading towards the center of the Sky Wheel City, and its
speed was ten times faster than his own.

Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!

To the naked eye, the Sky Wheel City did not seem so far away, but the path was actually quite long.

It took ten hours even for the spider to cover half the distance. After a full day and night's journey, the
spider finally got close to the center of the city.

Geoffrey himself would have needed at least ten days to cover this path. The spider had indirectly
helped him shorten the voyage, but he was not happy at all.

While nearing the city center, the spider proceeded towards a large, arched building and entered
inside.

Inside, Geoffrey saw many spiders, all of whom were carrying all sorts of creatures on their backs, and
slowly moving forward in a queue.

The spider in front of Geoffrey was carrying a huge bug on its back. The bug kept on struggling, but
was unable to escape from the sharp teeth. Its body would occasionally touch the sharp teeth, and get
scalded in the process.

Further ahead was a spider carrying a little monster with very long hands, legs, and tail. The monster
was sitting quietly in the cage, staring at Geoffrey with a faint smile on his face.

Geoffrey frowned, ignored the little monster, and then continued to look at the other trapped creatures.

The creatures and entities that thrived in the Deep Space were quite mysterious and incomprehensible
in the eyes of creatures from third-grade and fourth-grade worlds. In fact, even their forms were



indescribable. However, in Geoffrey's eyes, these creatures were somewhat simple.

Most of the creatures that had been sent here were very primitive. The only ones that looked a bit
intelligent was the little monster.

The spiders in the long line moved forward slowly, and Geoffrey felt uneasy. The spiders were definitely
up to something. He didn't know what kind of danger he was going to encounter.

Once the spiders had moved a certain distance, Geoffrey saw a triangular platform in front of the line.
There was an incision of about three feet at the bottom of the platform, and the spiders would perfectly
fit inside it, putting the prey in the cages on their backs into the triangular platform.

When Geoffrey was concentrating on observing the triangular platform, he suddenly saw a flash of
golden light and heard a strange scream from the platform. Then a spider retreated from the platform.

The prey on its back had disappeared completely, leaving nothing but a pile of ashes behind. The
spider dumped the black ashes on the ground and then left calmly.

"Oh no! That is bad!"

Geoffrey's mind went blank when he saw this.

What on earth did these spiders want to do?

Were they capturing these creatures from thousands of miles away just to burn them to ashes? That
seemed unlikely.

One spider after another entered the triangular platform to verify Geoffrey's judgment. With every flash
of golden light, the prey on the back of a spider would be burnt to ashes.

Very soon after that, it was the little monster's turn.



The little monster seemed quite calm, and there was a constant smile on his distinctive face throughout
the whole process.

"He is still smiling even though it is certain he is going to die," Geoffrey remarked to himself, gritting his
teeth.

However, after the little monster was sent in, there was no golden flash from the triangular platform.
The spider that was carrying him retreated, and he was safe and sound.

When he came out, the monster looked at Geoffrey with an even brighter smile. He even stretched out
his hands and made a gesture that seemed like cutting one's neck repeatedly. He was also making a
howling sound.

The gesture might have been provocative, or it might have been a greeting, but Geoffrey was elated in
any case. He had finally seen a creature come out alive.

This meant that there was a slim chance of survival while inside the triangular platform. Geoffrey still
had a chance to live.

Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!

Next, it was the turn of the bug in front of Geoffrey. A few seconds after the bug was sent in, the golden
light flashed again, and then the spider came out with ashes on its back.

"Okay... My turn."

Geoffrey took a deep breath and got ready.

When he was taken into the triangular platform, a huge mirror appeared in front of him.



There were fifteen small cubes arranged neatly on the left side of the mirror, and only one on the right
side. The sixteenth one seemed to be a corner piece of the large cube that the fifteen other ones were
trying to form.

"This is a test?"

Geoffrey was stunned for a moment. Then he quickly moved the cube on the right side to the left,
forming a complete cube.

After that, the scene in the mirror changed abruptly. This time also, several cubes were laid out on the
mirror. They were a bit more than a dozen in number.

Geoffrey thought for a while and then rearranged them into a pattern. After that, the scene in the mirror
changed again.

This time, several cubes and round blocks were mixed together, and Geoffrey knew that he only
needed to separate them to pass this round.

After he completed the three puzzles, the scene in the mirror disappeared, and it became blank.

Geoffrey was very nervous. The three questions had all been very simple, but he didn't know if he had
passed the test. If the golden light flashed, he would directly turn into ashes.

It was not until the spider that was carrying him began to slowly move that he heaved a heavy sigh of
relief. He had passed through one very big hurdle.

Although he was still trapped, escaping the jaws of death felt exhilarating.

'The spiders capture their prey and then select the intelligent ones among them. Those who don't pass
the test are burnt to a crisp, and the intelligent ones are allowed to live, '



Geoffrey thought, feeling much more relieved.

If the spiders were selecting intelligent creatures so creatively, it meant that they themselves
possessed intelligence. This meant that he could communicate with them. And no matter what they
were going to do, as long as he could communicate with them, he didn't need to worry.

After the test, the spider carried Geoffrey out of the arched building, and descended a flight of stairs
that led to a huge underground space. Now there were cages on either side of the space in which all
sorts of strange creatures were trapped.

They had already passed the test presumably, so naturally possessed enough intelligence.

When Geoffrey was carried in, he attracted the attention of all of those creatures. Some of the
monsters even greeted him through the fences by letting out strange screams of excitement.

Geoffrey didn't know what they were trying to say, so he simply ignored them. After the spider found an
empty cage, it stuffed Geoffrey inside and the door was shut!
