Chapter 207 - Rising Wonder (2/2)

According to his previous experiences, the enemies at the seventh level and beyond would be highly relevant to his own astral power level, which was… actually a good thing, because this sometimes presented him with enemies weaker than before.

This was all because he was still a fifth-rank battle pet warrior as far as his astral power level was concerned. At such a level, the tower would send eighth-rank opponents at him, at best.

“*sigh* Here goes nothing. The faster I finish this thing, the earlier I can go home.” With the help of his pets, the fight on the seventh floor was concluded fairly quickly. Clearing the seventh floor that fast was like dropping a bomb among the crowd still waiting outside. All those who didn’t care who was the current challenger a second before began asking for answers.

It wasn’t a big deal if an old veteran was doing this. But it was a completely different matter if the challenger had room for more growth.

As for those who saw Su Ping enter the tower earlier… they had been speechless for quite some time.

The yelling down below once again pulled Venerable the Blade out of his tranquil state, as he looked toward the glowing tower, a bit surprised this time.

That was too fast even by his standards.

Similarly, several t.i.tled warriors waiting in the sky joined in, giving the tower several curious looks.

The eighth section lit up under their careful watch.

Venerable the Blade could no longer sit tight; whoever was in the tower had reached his record.

By then, the age of the challenger no longer mattered. Either old or young, the challenger had to possess a terrifying competence, enough to surpa.s.s the attacks of something several ranks stronger.

With a serious look, Venerable the Blade left his usual spot and slowly descended, while intently staring at the eighth section of the tower.

At the same time, several figures showed up behind him; they looked equally shocked by what was happening right then.

Not all of them had reached the eighth floor during their challenges. They had realized that the challenger might be stronger than them, or at least had the potential of reaching that level in the future.

“Who’s this? Some old hermit who wants to play a game under our noses?”.

“Nah. I know every geezer who lives in this subcontinent. If any of them showed up, I’d know.”

“I’ll just ask around later. Somebody must have seen who went in there.”

On the ground, people were too amazed to speak at this point, because the champion of the Pioneer’s Ranking list had only reached the sixth rank as far as they remembered. Never in their lives did they expect someone to beat not one but two levels beyond that.

Still, it was not the end of the wonder yet. The tip of the tower began to s.h.i.+ne like a beacon.
