Chapter 28: Marquis Phantom, Surpassing the Record!

Thirty-six layers!

Tying Holy Spear Marquis's record!

In an instant, the entire Heavenly Pride Battalion flew into a rage.

The bald man stared fixedly at the Phantom Tower before him, shock bursting forth in his huge pupils.

"Thirty-six layers!"

One by one, the Heavenly Prides stared at the scene before them, falling silent.

Especially Wang Xi, his face full of disbelief.

"Impossible! How could he possibly tie Holy Spear Marquis's record!"

Wang Xi's inner self roared hysterically.

You know, before he looked down on Su Yu in every way.

He even spoke many ill words about Su Yu.

But now.

Su Yu, with the achievement of tying Holy Spear Marquis's record, gave Wang Xi a hard slap on the face.

That slap only hurt that much.

And just at that moment.

The Heavenly Pride Ranking suddenly began to vibrate.

Boom—!!!

Accompanying the vibration of the Heavenly Pride Ranking, the ground also faintly began to tremble slightly.

All the Heavenly Prides looked blankly at all this.

What's happening? Could it be an earthquake?

Jiangnan Sheng isn't on an earthquake belt, why would there be an earthquake?

Could it be that a powerful expert has invaded?

Everyone talked at once.

Only the bald man, as if thinking of something, had his gaze suddenly fall upon the Heavenly Pride Ranking.

This is....

The bald man's pupils suddenly contracted, his face showing a look of horror.

Swish—swish—swish!!!

Sounds of tearing through the air came one after another.

Only to see Bai Zhan and the other three instructors appear one after another atop the Phantom Tower.

The leader, a middle-aged man resembling a scholar, frowned tightly, looked at the bald man, and spoke in a deep voice.

Chen Zhe, what's happened?

Chen Zhe was the name of that bald male instructor.

Chen Zhe gave a bitter laugh, pointing at the Heavenly Pride Ranking and said.

Boss, take a look yourself—this kid is incredible!

The middle-aged man frowned, looking at the Heavenly Pride Ranking, when suddenly a golden light shot out from within the Ranking, like a golden pillar piercing the heavens and stirring the winds and clouds of the nine firmaments.

This is....

The middle-aged man's face changed drastically.

Marquis power!

Who caused the Marquis power left by the Holy Spear Marquis in the Heavenly Pride Ranking to activate?

The middle-aged man burst out.

The shock on his face went without saying.

Bai Zhan looked over the crowd of Heavenly Prides, suddenly discovering that Su Yu's figure was not among them.

Could it be....

Could it be Su Yu?

Bai Zhan muttered a sentence.

The leading middle-aged man slightly raised his eyebrows, transmitting his voice.

Is it that Golden Heaven's Pride?

Bai Zhan nodded.

Having received an affirmative answer, the middle-aged man's wrinkles instantly disappeared.

Hey, a Golden Heaven's Pride triggering Marquis power—isn't that perfectly normal?

The middle-aged man laughed, waved his hand, and said.

Look at how you've been scared.

Chen Zhe's mouth corner twitched slightly.

Good fellow, you even have the nerve to say we were scared.

Clearly, the one who reacted most strongly is you, alright.

Above the heavens, the golden pillar burst forth with brilliant light, as if something were about to rush out from within it.

In an instant, a long spear materialized, as if it were about to pierce the heavens, wrapped in violent power.

A grand voice echoed through the nine heavens as the spear appeared.

I am... Holy Spear Marquis!

Boom—!!!

The voice exploded, a burly illusion appeared above heaven and earth.

That was a terrifying illusion; merely standing above the nine heavens, it carried endless pressure.

Countless geniuses looked up to the nine heavens, their eyes filled with excitement.

"Is this the Holy Spear Marquis? I never expected to still be able to see the Holy Spear Marquis! I've made it!"

"That's right, the Holy Spear Marquis is a top expert who came out of our Jiangnan Sheng; I never thought I'd get to see the Holy Spear Marquis today!"

In the crowd, Yang Xiao gazed at the Holy Spear Marquis's illusion above the nine heavens, fists clenched, surging fighting spirit bursting forth.

"Holy Spear Marquis..."

At this moment, above the nine heavens, the Holy Spear Marquis's eyes gradually gained a glimmer of light.

He slowly looked downward.

Toward the Phantom Tower.

At this moment, the light on the thirty‑seventh floor of the Phantom Tower kept flickering.

Seeing this, the Holy Spear Marquis's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

He then burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha, I thought no one would surpass my record for at least several decades, but in just over ten years, geniuses have emerged from Jiangnan Sheng and actually surpassed my record!"

The Holy Spear Marquis's voice, like his stature, was extremely sonorous.

Below, the middle‑aged instructors all bowed to the Holy Spear Marquis above the heavens.

"We have seen the Holy Spear Marquis!"

You should know that, to the people of Jiangnan Sheng today, the Holy Spear Marquis is their faith; he is also the only one in Jiangnan Sheng's hundreds of years who has surpassed Grand Master and reached the Marquis level.

The Holy Spear Marquis lightly nodded, his gaze returning to the Phantom Tower.

A pair of eyes, as if able to see through illusion, pierced straight through the Phantom Tower and landed on Su Yu's figure.

He looked at Su Yu, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.

"Good, very good! This child's talent is limitless; I, the marquis, am willing to take him as my disciple!"

The Holy Spear Marquis laughed loudly.

The Holy Spear Marquis takes a disciple!

You should know, this person is a Marquis‑level expert, and even among Marquis‑level experts, he is a top‑tier existence.

It can be said that the Holy Spear Marquis is among Marquis‑level experts the one most likely to assault the Prince rank.

To be taken as a disciple by such a person, one's future path would be incredibly smooth.

Even the instructors are now filled with envy.

In the crowd, Wang Xi could not believe it.

"How is that possible! Someone like him could actually be taken as a disciple by the Holy Spear Marquis? Impossible!"

Wang Xi's inner heart roared, and his jealousy toward Su Yu deepened.

However, at this moment, the Phantom Tower shuddered again.

Only seen, the light on the thirty‑seventh floor vanished instantly.

In its place, the light on the thirty‑eighth floor was lit!

The thirty‑seventh floor, broken!

In an instant, even the Holy Spear Marquis's eyes trembled slightly.

He himself had once done so; at his peak of Qi and Blood Realm, he had reached the thirty‑seventh floor, already an unparalleled genius, and now he is a Marquis‑level expert.

Thus, reaching the thirty‑sixth floor in the Qi and Blood Realm cultivation is extremely difficult.

And now, Su Yu not only matched his own record, but also surpassed it when his Marquis power was activated.

For a moment, even the Holy Spear Marquis was somewhat surprised.

The Holy Spear Marquis took a deep breath, then slowly spoke.

"This child... has the potential to become a Prince."
