Chapter 1657: Chapter 1656: Beginning the Heavenly Ladder
During their conversation,
the second team was also eliminated, coming down in a very miserable state. It didn’t take more than 5 minutes in total, and they only reached the 50th step, slightly better than the previous team.
The people present started to lose confidence, initially so arrogant, now seemed deflated.
Some inexperienced young individuals began to feel a bit nervous, their fingers trembling.
Sweat was forming in their palms.
"Third team!"
The administrator’s expression was very apathetic. After all, he had seen too many scenes like this. Not to mention the 30th and 50th steps, he had seen the 100th and 200th as well, so it wouldn’t cause any disturbance.
These people.
However, the third team of participants entered the entrance nonetheless.
Still, they were five students.
These five students were slightly better than the previous team, getting to about the 60th step in around 10 minutes before falling.
The subsequent outcome was obvious.
The vast majority of the Divine Race, when climbing the Heavenly Ladder, could only ascend to about the 100th step at most.
They received the primary reward.
The remaining freelance individuals had even less opportunity. They hadn’t undergone specific cultivation or systematic learning and knew very little about the nature of the weather, exploring cultivation blindly on their own in society.
Compared to these students, although they possessed rich life experiences, these experiences were of no use on the Heavenly Ladder. It was not a competition of human minds. So on the ladder, students held a clear advantage.
Even places where students couldn’t climb high, these freelancers had even less ability to reach.
"Almost everyone is eliminated. Let’s go!"
"What a pity for this year, another test with no one exceeding 200 steps."
"There’s no way, it’s too challenging."
Just then,
they saw a young face appear on the screen.
This person was none other than Fang Yu from earlier. They had some impression because Fang Yu had arranged for the most VIP service here. He was the top VIP.
When he went up, the attendant even respectfully opened the door and escorted him into the passage, then respectfully withdrew.
"Isn’t that the VIP from earlier?"
"It really is him. Seeing how arrogant he was just now, who knows how many steps he can climb."
"He’s not that much older than us, his cultivation doesn’t seem very high either. Maybe he’ll just reach the 50th step at most."
"Reaching 50 steps is a struggle. Don’t forget, our first team only got to the 30th step."
"Why don’t we place a bet? Come on, open the betting, open the betting!"
The people present started betting.
With this addition, everyone was indeed intrigued and unwilling to leave. Only a small portion left the scene, with the rest staying to watch. After all, the Heavenly Ladder wasn’t something often seen, and testing days like this, besides the individual tests for VIPs, only happened intermittently.
It’s rare for someone to make a fool of themselves, so naturally, they wanted to watch a little longer.
Meanwhile,
Fang Yu arrived at the bottom of the Heavenly Ladder.
He didn’t immediately start climbing but looked up.
It was exactly the same as when he climbed the Heavenly Ladder last time. No change.
"What is at the end of the Heavenly Ladder?"
"Last time I didn’t have the chance to reach the end, I must go up and take a look this time."
Fang Yu knew that the first 300 steps were nothing, knowing well how immense the pressure was.
He was also very clear about all the rules between the steps on the Heavenly Ladder.
To him, these initial steps held no meaning. So he didn’t want to waste time on them.
At this moment,
Fang Yu’s figure suddenly moved.
Like a gust of wind, he shot upwards directly.
His figure completely disappeared.
Only leaving behind a trail of afterimages.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
By the time they saw his figure again, he was already on the 100th step.
Simultaneously, his image was projected onto the large screen.
The students outside and the freelance individuals were taken aback when they saw this scene, unable to believe it.
Faces full of shock, mouths wide open.
"Am I seeing things?"
"No way?"
"How did he suddenly appear on the 100th step?"
"Could it be a malfunction? How is that possible?"
While everyone was filled with disbelief, the number on the lower right corner of the screen jumped once more.
This meant that there was no malfunction, and it was still updating in real-time.
"No way, it’s already 150! He reached 150 effortlessly, how is this possible?"
"This is because of the speed. Look!"
No matter how fast, there are cameras along the entire path of the Heavenly Ladder, capturing everything regardless of speed.
Everyone widened their eyes to watch the screen.
They saw Fang Yu’s figure slow down.
Despite this, they saw Fang Yu moving as though on flat ground, casually, without any pressure whatsoever.
How was this possible?
At the same time,
Fang Yu continued forward.
He knew his image was being broadcasted but wasn’t afraid of being seen. After all, this was just the beginning, he’d figure out a way to block these signals later.
The pressure at these initial steps was nothing to fear.
After Feng Yu broke through to the Great God Lord Realm, it was much smoother than before.
Within a few breaths, he had reached the 150th step.
Upon reaching the 150th step, Fang Yu only felt a slight pressure, just a little, not enough to have a noticeable impact.
Fang Yu continued to speed up.
Without almost any effort, as if walking down a street, he arrived at the 200th step.
However, he did not realize that his actions stunned the students outside.
They were speechless.
They watched the image of Fang Yu on the screen with their mouths agape.
For him, the 200th step was like a casual walk, as if there was no pressure at all.
"This guy is extraordinary, how could this be, he’s not like an ordinary member of the Divine Race."
"He looks like a young man on the outside, but who’d have thought his strength was hidden this deep?"
"How could someone who casually spends so much money for the most VIP service be a simple character?"
"You’re right, this person is definitely not simple."
As they spoke,
another voice of surprise arose from the crowd.
"No way, he’s already at the 250th step."
"So quickly at 250 steps?"
"Is he really from the Basic Divine Race!?"
"Oh, we’ve encountered a remarkable person today!"
Those who thought someone able to reach 50 steps was impressive felt their faces burning, once again severely proven wrong.
Many from the Divine Race who were planning to leave, thinking it wouldn’t take long to watch someone reach 50 steps.
But now, their curiosity piqued even more.
They were eager to see just how high this person could climb!
