There were 4 people waiting for him in one of the rooms on the 36th floor.
Alex entered and found that each one of these people was thousands of years old elders that were in the Saint Core realm.
When they saw Alex, who was just in the Saint Foundation realm, they couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Alex greeted the 4 people and went to sit by one of the 8 spots marked on the floor on one side. He realized that his spiritual sense was suppressed as well. Not fully suppressed, but enough to make it mostly useless.
"Do any of you seniors know what we are supposed to be doing here?" he asked.
All of them shrugged. "No idea," they said. "We've been waiting for someone to come so we can get started on it."
Alex couldn't help but be surprised. "Are you all the first 4 to get here?" he asked.
"We're not sure, but we do think so," one of them said.
