After hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly became hot and they looked at the stone steps in front of them with excitement. Everyone was gearing up and ready to move. Before they could start, they were all pushing forward with all their strength. After all, there were too many people. Who stood at the front?
, whoever can seize the opportunity.
"Stop squeezing me. Don't blame me for being rude!" Someone standing in front couldn't stand the squeezing anymore, so he roared loudly.
However, everyone's eyes were red at this moment. In order to seize the opportunity, they all crowded forward and no one paid any attention to him.
The old man glanced at the people present and saw that everyone below was impatient and crowded together. He couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile on his lips, waved his hand with a smile and said: "The timer starts!"
If we don't start, the old man is afraid that if these people continue to squeeze in, there will be conflicts.
"Come on!"
"quick!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, they shouted loudly and rushed forward.
Some stood in front and ran slowly, and were knocked down by those behind them. They were trampled over by others without even standing up.
Fortunately, the people here are not ordinary people. Although they were stepped on by big guys, their lives were not in danger. If they were ordinary people, they would have been trampled to death long ago.
There are nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine levels in this stone staircase. Even if you walk up it, it will take a long time. Moreover, this stone staircase is an assessment and it will definitely not be easy. Therefore, no one dares to waste time. After all, there is only one hour left and it is too late.
It won't be able to pass.
Everyone present was like a crucian carp crossing a river, shouting and rushing towards the stone steps. However, the first group of people to rush over, just as they climbed onto the stone steps, they suddenly staggered, as if their bodies were pressed down by a heavy object.
Some people who were weak in cultivation and not prepared in advance even lay down on the stone steps and made a fool of themselves.
The people behind him were stunned when they saw this, knowing that the stone steps were not as simple as they looked. They all slowed down and were mentally prepared before moving up the stone steps in front of them.
Ling Feng stood at the back of the crowd, not in a hurry to fight with them, but curiously looking at the stone steps in front of him. In Ling Feng's opinion, these stone steps were probably similar to the stone steps in front of Tianxuan Sect's mountain gate.
The only difference is that this stone step is much higher than that of Tianxuan Sect, and each stone step is longer, more than ten feet long. Together, these stone steps make it seem like people are climbing to the sky step by step.
Among the crowd, there were some who were weak in cultivation. After walking a few stone steps, it became extremely difficult and the speed slowed down significantly.
There were also some people who rushed very fast. They rushed through the 100th floor in less than a moment, and then their speed slowed down.
Some people even stood up on the stone steps and were knocked back by the shock, unable to stand up at all.
The old man standing at the top said in a deep voice: "Only monks and warriors under the age of thirty are allowed to participate in this genius trial. Anyone older than that can't participate. Please don't try it, lest I hurt you."
The monks and warriors present who were over thirty years old sighed helplessly when they heard the old man's words, and their eyes were full of unwillingness.
But everyone was helpless. The rules were like this. They could only withdraw silently and stand at the back of the crowd, looking at the people climbing the stone steps with envy.
The old man then said: "I forgot to mention that there is a reward for the first place in every assessment."
"award!"
Everyone's enthusiasm immediately rose upon hearing this, and everyone became very excited. Since there was a reward, they had to compete for the first place.
Ling Feng and the other three stood in the crowd, moving forward little by little with the crowd. Although the stone steps were very wide and long, there were too many people to go up at one time.
The people at the front have already rushed to more than a hundred stone steps, but there are many people below who have not started yet and are still queuing and crowding there.
Many people with strong cultivation couldn't wait any longer, so they rushed out of the crowd and rushed up the stone steps. After all, there was a reward for the first place.
Among them were people from Wushuang City. They rushed forward. No one dared to block the way and they all gave way.
The people in Wushuang City were also very strong in cultivation, and the journey was smooth and they reached the thousandth floor in less than a moment.
"As expected of the people from Wushuang City, they are so strong," the people below looked up at the people in Wushuang City and said with shocked expressions.
Liu Yan and other people from the Eastern Region also rushed out forcefully, followed closely behind the people in Wushuang City, and rushed towards the stone steps.
Their speed is not weak either. After all, the difficulty is not very high at the beginning, and everyone is following the people in Wushuang City.
With them taking the lead, many of the people in the crowd with good cultivation skills no longer hid themselves, and they all sped up and rushed forward.
"Let's go and see who reaches the top first!"
Since it was an assessment, it naturally aroused everyone's competitive spirit, and everyone wanted to compete for the first place.
Everyone said one after another: "Do you still need to ask about the first place? It must be everyone in Wushuang City. Who can compare with them?"
"People from Tianjian Sect and other Holy Land sects in the Central Region have arrived a long time ago and have entered Tianjiao City before. Among these people present, no one can be their opponent."
At this moment, everyone present is optimistic about Wushuang City. After all, whether it is sect power or personal strength, the people of Wushuang City are the number one without any dispute.
"It seems we have to speed up," Ling Feng said in a deep voice: "No matter what, we can't let the people from Wushuang City rush forward first."
Xie Xinyuan didn't say anything, and flew directly over everyone's heads. His powerful aura scared everyone to give way. Xie Xinyuan originally wanted to fly up directly, but found that there was a formation restriction in the air. He couldn't fly over, so he had to go to the third place.
Go one level at a time.
Xie Xinyuan was very fast, without any pause along the way. In just a few breaths, he caught up with Liu Yan and his group.
The next moment, under the shocked eyes of everyone, Liu Yan rushed past them and chased after the people from Wushuang City.
When Ling Feng saw his senior brother rushing over at the lead, he was not to be outdone and rushed after him.
Ling Feng took one step forward and disappeared instantly. When he reappeared, he was in front of the first stone steps.
When the old man above Tianjiao City saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He glanced at Ling Feng in surprise, and exclaimed in surprise: "What a good move."
Ling Feng stood up without hesitation.
The next moment, Ling Feng only felt his whole body sink. There was an inexplicable pressure from the surrounding world that was suppressing him. However, the pressure on this first level was very small and had no impact on Ling Feng at all.
Ling Feng did not stop, and continued to move upward. The next moment, Ling Feng's figure turned into an afterimage, and rushed directly to the people of Wushuang City in the shocked eyes of everyone.
"So fast!"
People who saw Ling Feng going up more than 2,000 stone steps from the first floor all looked at Ling Feng in shock, with disbelief in their eyes.
Some people didn't even see clearly. They just felt a breeze blowing past them. No one was seen. Ling Feng had disappeared beside him. When he appeared, he was already on the stone steps under everyone in Wushuang City.
.
Everyone in Wushuang City took the lead and blocked the way. They stopped everyone very domineeringly, and no one dared to surpass them.
Xie Xinyuan stepped forward forcefully, but was stopped by the people in Wushuang City, and was instantly surrounded.
On the surface, there didn't seem to be any conflict, but in fact, they were blocking Xie Xinyuan and didn't want Xie Xinyuan to go up. However, Ding Zhe and Qu Biao were moving forward quickly, and they opened the distance in an instant.
Xie Xinyuan snorted coldly, and his spiritual power was instantly released. He forcefully knocked away the Wushuang City man who was blocking the road in front of him, resisted the attacks from the Wushuang City people, and rushed forward.
Upon seeing this, everyone in Wushuang City immediately reached out and grabbed Xie Xinyuan's leg, trying to pull it off directly.
Xie Xinyuan snorted coldly, and his spiritual power exploded, instantly knocking the man away. Then he quickly moved forward and chased after Ding Zhe.
The people in Wushuang City were unwilling to give in, and immediately accelerated their speed and chased Xie Xinyuan. They could not let him go easy no matter what, and they must drag him down. This first place definitely belongs to Wushuang City.
However, at this moment, everyone noticed that Ling Feng was also rushing up from below. Cui Sha immediately said in a deep voice: "Hold this kid away, we must not let him rush over."
"yes!"
Everyone in Wushuang City nodded and lined up to block the stone steps. As long as Ling Feng dared to step on their stone steps, they would attack him in groups and throw Ling Feng directly down.
But what they didn't expect was that Ling Feng didn't stop at all, and without any fear of their group, he walked towards their stone steps step by step.
Upon seeing this, everyone in Wushuang City immediately gathered towards Ling Feng, and more than a dozen spiritual attacks were fired towards Ling Feng, preparing to take action together to drive Ling Feng away.
When Ling Feng saw this, a disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his figure flashed and disappeared instantly, causing everyone's spiritual attacks to fail.
The stone steps under everyone's feet were very powerful. The people's attacks hit the stone steps, like mud cows entering the sea, and disappeared instantly without any fluctuations.
Cui Sha frowned when he saw this. This kid was actually faster than they thought.
"Chase!"
Cui Sha snorted coldly, and everyone quickly rushed forward to chase Ling Feng.
Ling Feng was also climbing quickly at this moment, chasing Ding Zhe and Qu Biao in front. At this moment, Ding Zhe and Qu Biao had quickly rushed to the nine thousandth floor.
In order to be first, both of them used their speed to the extreme. With the two of them joining forces, Xie Xinyuan was unable to surpass them and was firmly blocked below.
Ling Feng was chasing after them at this moment. In the blink of an eye, he caught up with them when they rushed to the 9900th floor and stood on the same stone steps as Xie Xinyuan.
The higher the stone steps go up, the stronger the pressure, and the stronger the gravity felt when standing on the stone steps. It seems that there is a huge suction force on the stone steps, firmly sucking everyone's feet, making it more and more difficult for everyone.
Both Ding Zhe and Qu Biao became much more strenuous, and their speed suddenly slowed down a lot. Xie Xinyuan looked a little more relaxed than them, but was blocked by Ding Zhe and Qu Biao and was unable to go up.
"Brother, look at me!"
Ling Feng snorted coldly and stepped forward directly. Qu Biao stood in front of Ling Feng, turned around and hit Ling Feng with a palm, trying to knock Ling Feng off the stone steps.
When Ling Feng saw this, a disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he quickly stretched out his hand and punched Qu Biao's palm.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and Qu Biao was knocked backwards on the spot, hitting the stone steps above. He was shocked so much that blood surged in his body.
Qu Biao looked at Ling Feng in shock. He didn't expect Ling Feng to have such great power.
But before Qu Biao could recover from the shock, Ling Feng had already stood up. Ling Feng, who was standing on the same stone steps as him, reached out without hesitation and grabbed Qu Biao's clothes.
With great force, he threw Qu Biao directly downwards.
When the people in Wushuang City below who were rushing towards the top saw this, they immediately secretly said something bad and quickly took action to catch Qu Biao.
The powerful impact almost knocked them down.
"Damn it!"
A cold light flashed in Cui Sha's eyes, and then he said: "Let's go up and help Ding Zhe."
Ding Zhe immediately frowned when he saw this, but for the sake of the first place, he did not help. Instead, he took advantage of Ling Feng's opportunity to deal with Qu Biao, accelerated his speed and rushed upward.
In just a moment, Ding Zhe had already reached the 9990th floor, and was just nine floors away from reaching the top.
But at this time, Ling Feng caught up with him unknowingly, and even surpassed him directly, reaching the stone steps above him.
"How is that possible?"
As soon as Ding Zhe took a step forward, he exclaimed in surprise. He had just stood on the stone steps with one foot. Before he could step forward, he found Ling Feng appearing in front of him.
Ling Feng was looking at him with a playful look on his face, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he snorted coldly and said, "Get off here."
As Ling Feng spoke, he directly raised his foot and kicked Ding Zhe hard in the face.
When Ding Zhe saw this, he immediately said something bad to himself. He quickly stretched out his hand and crossed his fists in front of his face, trying to block Ling Feng's kick.
However, the power of Ling Feng's kick was too strong, and he directly kicked Ding Zhe off the stone steps.
After kicking Ding Zhe away, Ling Feng turned around and continued upward. However, at the nine hundred and ninety-eighth floor, Ling Feng stopped and stood on the stone steps quietly waiting for the people from Wushuang City below to chase him.
Come up.
Ling Feng thought to himself, since you want to play, then I will accompany you to the end. As long as I am here today, no one from Wushuang City will even think of coming up.
At this moment, Ling Feng has such an aura that one man can stand up to ten thousand people, and today he will fight to the death with the people of Wushuang City.
