Chapter 26: Crazy Face-Slap, 31st Floor!

Everyone stared at the Phantom Tower's changes, unable to suppress a jolt in their hearts.

Such speed, compared to Yang Xiao's, is only faster, not slower!

Who is Yang Xiao? He is none other than a proper Orange Heaven's Pride, and moreover the grandson of the current vice president of the Jiangnan Martial Artists Association!

It's no surprise that he could have such speed.

But a mere Su Yu, unknown and coming from a small city like Hengcheng.

How could one not be surprised?

Especially the youth who had just complained, seeing this scene, his face changed dramatically.

"Impossible! How could a mere Qi Blood Realm Martial Artist be this fast?"

His face was extremely ugly; just moments ago he was complaining, yet the next moment he got slapped in the face.

How could that make him happy?

The bald man glanced lightly at the youth and said.

"Wang Xi, if you can't do it, don't blame others!"

Hearing the bald man's reprimand, Wang Xi's face changed again, he snorted coldly, and said.

"So what if it's fast? It's only the first layer; even a Martial Artist just entering the Qi Blood Realm could breeze through the first ten layers with no difficulty at all—once he reaches the tenth layer, he'll naturally slow down!"

Upon hearing Wang Xi's words, everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement.

After all, although the first thirty layers target Qi Blood Realm Martial Artists, every ten layers there is a substantial qualitative leap.

Although Su Yu's speed in the first few layers is indeed fast, once he breaks past the tenth layer, his speed will surely slow down.

This is the experience of most challengers!

Among the crowd, only Yang Xiao frowned slightly, gazing toward the Phantom Tower, wondering what he was thinking.

Meanwhile, inside the Phantom Tower.

Su Yu gazed at the illusory figure before him.

"Is this the second layer? The first layer is merely the Quasi Martial Artist level, but upon reaching the second layer, still Quasi Martial Artist level, the Qi and Blood should have increased by about 0.1."

"I see!"

Su Yu's mouth corner slightly curved into an arc.

In an instant, his whole body shot forward like a rocket.

Carrying terrifying might.

In an instant, the figure before him shattered!

Ding!

Next layer!

Su Yu now advanced like a bamboo splitter, throwing punch after punch; each punch could easily shatter the figure before him.

In the blink of an eye, Su Yu had already reached the tenth layer!

Upon reaching the tenth layer, the figure's strength had reached the level of one just entering the Qi Blood Realm.

Even so, facing Su Yu's violent breakthrough method,

there was no longer any obstruction.

Even the guardian figure couldn't touch Su Yu's clothes.

It shattered directly.

Know that Su Yu's current Qi and Blood is a full nine points!

That is the late stage of the Qi Blood Realm! Only half a step away from advancing to the Blood Refining Realm.

Moreover, with Su Yu's formidable strength, even against an expert just entering the Blood Refining Realm, he could slay them!

If he were to use spiritual artifacts and martial techniques,

With Qi and Blood below twenty, no one is a match for Su Yu!

This is Su Yu's current strength.

Inside the Phantom Tower, Su Yu is rapidly clearing the levels.

Meanwhile, outside the Phantom Tower.

Wang Xi watched the Phantom Tower's layers of light flickering continuously; almost every few seconds, the next layer's light lit up.

In just a minute, Su Yu had already surged to the eighteenth layer.

Know that reaching the eighteenth layer is already a decent result even among this batch of newcomers.

At least it's not the worst.

Wang Xi's face was extremely unsightly.

He is a Blood Refining Realm Heaven's Pride, and has even cleared thirty layers.

But that's only thirty layers, which compared to his cultivation level is really somewhat unsightly.

Especially after being scolded by the bald man, plus Su Yu's Qi Blood Realm cultivation, his breakthrough speed is nevertheless so fast.

This made Wang Xi inexplicably develop a hint of dislike toward Su Yu in his heart.

"Hmph, it's only eighteen layers; after all, he's still a Qi Blood Realm Martial Artist—once he reaches thirty layers, he'll know what the Blood Refining Realm truly is!"

"The gap between the Blood Refining Realm and the Qi Blood Realm cannot be seen merely by the speed of clearing levels!"

Wang Xi said in a low voice.

The bald man gave Wang Xi a deep look, said nothing, but gazed at the Phantom Tower's position, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Golden Heaven's Pride, and moreover a disciple acknowledged by that ruthless person—I wonder how many layers you, at the Qi Blood Realm, can clear!"

"Back then, the Holy Spear Marquis was a once-in-a-century Heaven's Pride of our Jiangnan Province; at the Qi Blood Realm he cleared thirty-six layers—now let's see if you can continue the Holy Spear Marquis's prestige!"

The bald man murmured, his eyes brimming with intense anticipation.

As time passed, everyone's expressions began to grow numb.

From the beginning until now, only the time it takes to burn one incense stick has elapsed.

And on the Phantom Tower, the light of twenty-nine floors has already been lit.

That is to say, in just the time it takes to burn one incense stick, Su Yu has already charged up to the twenty-ninth floor!

Wang Xi's complexion went from unpleasant to now extremely gloomy.

"Impossible! How could a mere Qi Blood Realm cultivator clear the stages so smoothly! Right, he must not have yet encountered the Blood Refining Realm gatekeeper!"

Wang Xi's face turned slightly ferocious.

He simply could not tolerate it; a mere Qi Blood Realm martial artist's ranking on the Phantom Tower was still above his.

"The next level is the thirtieth floor; what awaits on the thirtieth floor is a genuine Blood Refining Realm martial artist; once one reaches the thirtieth floor, this Su Yu will surely be defeated!"

Wang Xi roared in his heart.

In his gaze, moreover, a dangerous glint flickered.

However, just as he was lowly growling in his heart, the light of the thirtieth floor instantly lit up.

Su Yu... has reached the thirtieth floor!

Wang Xi's expression shifted slightly, and he hurriedly said.

"Hmph, the thirtieth floor will be his final destination; what awaits on the thirtieth floor is the Blood Refining Realm gatekeeper; even I barely managed to pass it; how could a mere Qi Blood Realm martial artist possibly pass the thirtieth floor!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

To them, the thirtieth floor is already the limit of a Qi Blood Realm martial artist; after all, what awaits on the thirtieth floor is the Blood Refining Realm gatekeeper.

Even if one is of the same realm, if one hasn't solidified one's cultivation and rashly attempts to pass the stage, the only outcome is defeat.

Let alone a Qi Blood Realm martial artist.

However, at the very moment they all nodded, the light of the thirtieth floor instantly dimmed.

Wang Xi's eyes lit up.

"Sure enough, he failed!"

Unfortunately, Su Yu's figure was not ejected; instead, only the light of the thirty-first floor appeared.

It was lit!
