Chapter 291: Martial Arts Tower, Seventy-Fifth Floor!

Instantly, Su Yu felt that his vision before him had changed.

Su Yu slowly opened his eyes and suddenly realized that, unbeknownst to when, he had actually appeared on an ancient arena.

Around him, it was pitch black.

Before Su Yu could fully observe his surroundings, an ancient voice echoed across the entire arena.

"Start!"

"Huh? Start? Start what start?"

Su Yu was stunned.

Immediately, an illusory figure appeared before Su Yu.

It was the silhouette of a youth dressed in black.

The youth held a black iron rod, and a faint aura emanated from his body.

Su Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Organ Tempering Realm? Starting at the Organ Tempering Realm, this Martial Arts Tower has something!"

Su Yu was slightly surprised, for one must know that Qianlong Academy still had many Blood Refining Realm students.

Thus, even wanting to challenge the Martial Arts Tower is not that simple.

At the very least, one needs Organ Tempering Realm strength to pass through.

Just as Su Yu was pondering, the black-clad youth before him suddenly brandished the iron rod and charged at Su Yu.

Facing such an attack, Su Yu gave a slight smile and lightly pushed out a punch.

Merely releasing a strand of Grandmaster's Power directly suppressed and killed that youth's phantom.

Afterward, the phantom transformed into a pure white pill, silently hovering in midair.

"Heavenly Spirit Pill; slightly increases cultivation speed."

He grasped the pill in his hand.

The Heavenly Spirit Pill is a pill specifically for Organ Tempering Realm experts, capable of increasing the speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi.

However, for Su Yu now, it is of no use.

But Su Yu still put it away.

The Heavenly Spirit Pill is useless, but Su Yu has a Synthesis Slot!

With the Synthesis Slot in hand, what's there to fear about not having good treasures?

"Looks like, before the sixtieth floor, there's no real challenge."

Su Yu gave a light smile.

Meanwhile, outside the Martial Arts Tower.

With the passage of time.

On the stone tablet beside the Martial Arts Tower, the numbers jumped rapidly.

One!

Two!

Three!

Fifty!

In less than ten minutes, the numbers actually jumped to fifty in an instant.

The surrounding crowd couldn't help but draw a cold breath.

"Hiss, this speed—even if Gu Yun came, he might not be able to achieve it."

Someone sighed and said.

"Indeed, this speed is really fierce; in less than ten minutes, he directly charged to the fiftieth floor—know that the fiftieth floor is already comparable to some late-stage Flying Heaven Realm experts."

"And only half a month has passed; Su Yu's Sequence strength has already become this terrifying?"

Everyone exclaimed in shock.

Only Tian Ming, standing not far away, watched this scene with a faint smile.

Beside Tian Ming, Bei Chen likewise stared at the stone tablet.

In his eyes lay a hint of solemnity.

In this half month, he had trained extremely hard, and was only half a step away from breaking through to the late Flying Heaven Realm.

He came to challenge the Martial Arts Tower in order to obtain its rewards, and then break through to the late Flying Heaven Realm.

He originally thought he would soon catch up to Su Yu's footsteps.

As a result, in just half a month, Su Yu actually broke through.

You must know, Su Yu broke through from the Great Perfection of the Flying Heaven Realm; its difficulty, compared to his own, is far greater.

Yet even so, he actually managed to break through before him.

Bei Chen's self-esteem suffered a strong blow.

Beside him, Tian Ming looked at Bei Chen; ever since Su Yu had told Tian Ming about Bei Chen earlier, Tian Ming had been paying attention to Bei Chen.

He came to Bei Chen's side, lightly patted Bei Chen's shoulder, and said with a cheerful laugh.

"How? Do you still want to stand shoulder to shoulder with a monster like Su Yu?"

Bei Chen glanced at Tian Ming; although his nature is rather arrogant, he still must abide by Qianlong Academy's rules within the academy.

Thus, he also bowed slightly with a hint of respect toward Tian Ming.

"I have seen Tian Ming's Sequence."

Tian Ming nodded, then clasped his hands behind his back, gazing at the Martial Arts Tower, his face filled with a complex expression.

"Back then, I thought just like you that this guy was only this capable, but do you know? In half a month, he defeated me."

Beichen's body trembled slightly, he stared in shock at Tian Ming.

He had been at Qianlong Academy for a while, so he naturally knew Tian Ming's identity.

Ninth Sequence.

Su Yu actually defeated Tian Ming when no one knew?

This is too sci-fi, isn't it?

Beichen still remembered how Su Yu looked when he defeated Gu Yun; from that time on, the five of them began to cultivate frenziedly.

Naturally, they also didn't know what happened in the mountains.

Even without cultivation, the mountains were not a place they could enter.

At this moment, Beichen's mind and spirit began to shake.

He never imagined that Su Yu could now maintain some fame among all the Sequences.

Beichen took a deep breath and slowly looked toward the Martial Arts Tower.

"He has always been my goal."

Beichen spoke with a resonant, powerful voice.

For someone who could make Beichen so proud to say such words is truly not easy.

You know, even when Su Yu came first in the college entrance exam, it didn't make Beichen yield.

But now, everything that has happened in Qianlong Academy has completely made Beichen yield.

Tian Ming looked at Beichen's appearance and gave a slight smile.

Back when he hadn't been defeated by Su Yu, it was the same.

But as Su Yu improved, even though Tian Ming had now advanced to the late Star Ancestor stage, he still faced Su Yu's terrifying combat power.

Tian Ming still dared not underestimate him.

Just as the two were speaking, the numbers on the stone tablet changed again.

It went straight from fifty to sixty in an instant.

This scene made all the Qianlong Academy students present feel their spirits shaken with joy.

"Hiss! Reaching the sixtieth floor this quickly already puts one in the Star Ancestor Master's realm."

"But here, Su Yu's speed should slow down; you know, even Tian Ming's Sequence initially only cleared seventy‑one floors."

"Right, Tian Ming's Sequence is above Su Yu's; I estimate Su Yu can at most reach the sixty‑ninth floor, so trying to hit seventy will still be difficult."

"That's right, but for Su Yu's Sequence to reach the sixty‑ninth floor with a Flying Heaven Realm cultivation is already terrifying."

Many students chatted, and even now they still didn't know Su Yu had broken through to the Star Ancestor Master realm.

If they found out, they'd be shocked enough to drop their jaws.

How long has it been?

In just half a month, he went straight from Flying Heaven Realm Perfection to Star Ancestor Master; such speed, looking through Qianlong Academy's history, no one could achieve it.

Not even the Heaven Sword King who left records on the Martial Arts Tower could do that.

The numbers on the stone tablet kept changing.

Sixty‑one!

Sixty‑two!

Sixty‑three!

Sixty‑nine!

Soon, the numbers on the stone tablet jumped straight to the sixty‑ninth floor.

The speed was so fast that there was no need to slow down below the sixtieth floor.

Everyone who saw this scene heard a chorus of gasps around the Martial Arts Tower.

"Hiss~"

They stared blankly at the Martial Arts Tower before them, their eyes filled with shock.

"Su Yu won't really surpass Tian Ming, will he? You know Tian Ming is the Ninth Sequence, the ninth‑ranked existence in Qianlong Academy."

"It's hard to say; although he reached the sixty‑ninth floor, you know every ten floors is a watershed, with difficulty rising linearly."

"Even though he blasted through the sixty‑ninth floor at breakneck speed, whether he can pass the seventieth floor remains a question."

Just as everyone was discussing heatedly,

the numbers on the stone tablet jumped instantly.

In an instant, it went from sixty‑nine to seventy!

Seeing this, everyone was completely numb.

"This... this... the seventieth floor of the Martial Arts Tower is probably comparable to a late‑stage Star Ancestor Master expert; even though Tian Ming's Sequence initially only cleared seventy‑one floors, could this Su Yu be a monster!"

They stared in horror at the scene before them, their eyes showing utter disbelief.

Only Tian Ming stood there quietly, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

He has now cleared more than seventy‑one floors, let alone Su Yu.

Su Yu once defeated me with Flying Heaven Realm Perfection cultivation; now, having broken through to the Star Ancestor Realm, his cultivation and power have surged even more.

In Tian Ming's estimate, Su Yu can definitely clear the seventy‑third floor, but the seventy‑fourth may still be difficult.

Indeed, as the seventieth‑floor great barrier was cleared, the numbers on the stone tablet jumped again.

Seventy‑one!

The huge number floated silently onto the stone tablet.

On the record, the seventy‑first floor has now tied Tian Ming's original achievement.

Everyone's hearts and spirits trembled, shocked beyond measure.

Moreover, the numbers did not stop changing because seventy-one appeared.

Just as their minds were shaken, the number on the stone tablet directly changed from seventy-one to seventy-two.

The whole area around the Martial Arts Tower fell silent; even Bei Chen stared fixedly at the stone tablet.

They wanted to know where Su Yu's limit actually lay.

Soon, the numbers kept jumping.

Seventy-three!

Seventy-four!

Seventy-five!

Finally, the numbers stopped at seventy-five.

However, at this moment no one spoke.

This figure of seventy-five had already surpassed ninety-nine percent of Qianlong Academy's people.

Even among Qianlong Academy's current Sequence, only a few could pass the seventy-fifth level.

Tian Ming was even more astonished.

He thought Su Yu clearing seventy-three would be good enough; who knew, Su Yu actually cleared seventy-five straight away.

Such terrifying combat power.... Tian Ming couldn't help but be dumbstruck.

Slowly, the gate of the Martial Arts Tower opened.

Accompanied by the emergence of a desolate aura, Su Yu's figure slowly appeared before everyone.
