Chapter 50 - Continuous breakthroughs

The moment Ye Yang successfully stepped onto the 900th step, everyone on the mountain boiled over.

"He actually reached the 900th step on the second day? What a monster!"

"In history, anyone who could step onto the 800th step would become a king level expert or higher. Could it be that this Ye Yang will become a Battle-Emperor in the future?"

Li Chengfeng looked at Ye Yang with a face of gratification. He was becoming more and more confident in this boy.

The majority of the people were praising, surprised and impressed, while the disciples of Nan Licheng and Luo Ying City had faces full of jealousy and hatred.

He felt a strong sense of danger. Their Mu Family would never allow a second Li Chengfeng to appear, otherwise, it would be a disaster.

The main examiner looked at Ye Yang, who was sitting cross-legged on the nine hundredth step with his eyes closed. A complicated look flashed across his eyes as he muttered to himself, "This Ye Yang is indeed a rare martial arts genius. His future achievements will definitely far surpass ours.

Dean of the White Robe took a sip of tea and smiled, "Oh you, you're already so old, but you still can't calm down. Everything in the world has its limits, and is not something that can be controlled by you or me. Moreover, the founder of the Tianwu Academy had long since set a rule that no one can affect the free development of the students. "

"That's what you say, but if Ye Yang really chooses to cultivate, do you think we can just watch idly and let this spiritualist go to waste in our hands?" The organizer said with some unwillingness.

"The rules of the academy are everything!" The Dean of the White Robe said in a serious tone, "Don't say that he's only the Vice Principal right now. Even if the Headmaster returns, he wouldn't dare disobey the wishes of the Ancestor."

"In the past, the Ancestral Founder's cultivation was very high, he participated in the cultivation of good fortune, established his Tianwu Academy, and set up a rule that had deep meaning. Don't let others down your guard!"

Thinking about the legend of the ancestor, the main examiner started sweating profusely and kept on bowing to Dean of the White Robe.

"You and I only need to do our best to uphold the rules of the academy. We should not worry about anything else, let's just watch the show and see how much of a surprise they can bring us," Dean of the White Robe said as he smiled.

The sky had already gradually darkened. The disciples who had climbed for an entire day were completely exhausted. They were all sitting cross-legged at their original spots. Their luck was good as they quickly recovered their physical strength.

Now the rankings on the steps had changed again.

First place, Ye Yang. Number of steps to climb: 900.

Second place, Mu Bai, number of steps: 799

Third place, Lan Caidie, number of steps: 787

Fourth place, Ye Yuhan, number of steps taken: 746

Fifth rank, Guan Yanxue, number of steps taken: 729

On the other hand, there were seven people in the sixth place. Because they were also stuck at the 599th step, they had already attempted to climb Six Hundred Stages many times, but all of them failed.

Ye Qingxuan was ranked 18 with the strength of 523 steps. She was also the only disciple in Eight Desolate City other than Ye Yang who had broken through to the 500th step.

From the 500th step down, there was another long dragon in human form, scattered all over the steps. The most bustling place, however, was the 299 steps. This was the tail of the entire team.

There were more than fifty people gathered here, and it was also the busiest place in the entire Nine Hell Heaven Stairway. Luckily, the Heaven Stairway was wide enough so no one would be pushed down.

On the Heaven Stairway, no one was allowed to make any malicious moves, so everyone could rest peacefully without having to be on guard against others.

In the morning sunlight, just as the disciples were about to reach the ground, they raised their heads and looked up. They swore to themselves that they would use all their strength to obtain the best result, because today was the last day.

However, when they were full of confidence and prepared to climb up the mountain, the confidence they had just built up vanished into thin air.

On the nine hundredth step, Ye Yang's aura became increasingly profound, and it rose and fell in accordance to a certain rhythm.

"Heavens, is he courting death?"

"He just advanced yesterday, is he trying to break through his bottleneck again today? What did I see? "

"Breaking through the 900 step, this is simply courting death! Is this person a genius or a madman?!"

Everyone present was dumbstruck by Ye Yang's actions, and Mu Shixiong laughed out loud. "If he doesn't die, then there's no justice at all. There's just some idiots from the Eight Desolate City."

Although Mu Shixiong's words were ugly, but he had spoken out the hearts of everyone present. Indeed, this kind of action was no different from suicide.

Li Chengfeng looked at Ye Yang's back as he complained in his heart. Ye Yang, Ye Yang, can't you calm down a little?

Lan Caidie and Ye Qingxuan both looked at Ye Yang with their eyes wide open. They reached out their jade hands to cover their cherry-like mouths, their faces filled with disbelief.

Ye Yuhan's heart was thumping. As the genius of his clan, he was naturally indifferent and focused on his martial arts. Other than eating, he spent almost all his time on cultivation.

But compared to Ye Yang, he knew how rational he was. He absolutely didn't dare to do this. He didn't even dare to think about it.

Mu Bai's eyes flashed a look of happiness, he must have gone crazy from wanting to be in the limelight, you just happened to succeed yesterday, do you still want to continue today? There's no justice in you if you don't die.

Ye Yang continued to use all his strength to break through the bottleneck. Although he was filled with Zhen Qi, he was always lacking. He repeatedly charged at the bottleneck, but was still unable to break through it.

Ye Yang knew that due to the's pressure from last time and after modifying his dantian, his barrier had become even stronger. It would probably be much harder to break through bottlenecks in the future.

However, Ye Yang didn't regret it at all. Compared to the benefits he received, this is worth it.

The seven to eight attacks all ended in failure. Ye Yang reached out his hand to swipe the ring and a fruit appeared in his hand. He opened his mouth wide and stuffed the entire fruit into his mouth.

"Hmm? He's eating. "

"It looks like a fruit!"

"The color of that fruit seems to be Green Spirit Fruit!"

"Heavens! It's really a Green Spirit Fruit! Only Division practitioners can use this kind of fruit! It's such a waste!"

Principal Bai looked at the fruit with narrowed eyes and said, "I didn't expect this little fellow to have such a great fortuitous encounter. To be able to obtain the Green Spirit Fruit, he's probably going to succeed this time …"

"But once he advances and is about to be attacked by the true spirit qi, the chances of his survival won't exceed one percent. Are you sure you don't want to stop him?" The organizer was a bit worried.

"Have you forgotten the rules again? "We are only the guardians of the rules, and I don't know if those who make them can change their decision. Let's just watch on in peace, I don't think this little guy will die that easily," Dean of the White Robe said.

After the Green Spirit Fruit entered his stomach, a surging energy instantly filled his dantian. Ye Yang immediately gathered this energy and attacked with all his might.

"Boom!"

The bottleneck ruptured.

Ye Yang currently faced a difficult choice. If he strengthened his defense, he had a 90% chance of safely passing through this advancement. However, his dantian wouldn't undergo any transformations, making it an ordinary advancement.

If he gave up on resisting and allowed the true spirit qi to enter his dantian, which was under endless pressure, the chances of his dantian being destroyed due to being unable to withstand the pressure would be more than 90%.

Ye Yang suddenly thought of a flawless face that carried bitterness and helplessness as he left the scene. His heart immediately felt pain.

He gritted his teeth and gave up on all resistance, letting the zhen qi from the outside world flow into his dantian like a torrential river.

"Boom!"

Ye Yang immediately felt as though he was a pond that was being flooded by a river, ready to collapse at any moment.

"Bang!" The clothes on Ye Yang's upper body exploded, and his hair was torn apart. His black hair danced in the wind as if a demon had descended into the world. His skin was flushed red, and blood slowly oozed out.

Not long after, tiny cracks appeared on Ye Yang's skin, dyeing him in a bloody red state. It looked as though he could shatter at any moment.

Li Chengfeng suddenly stood up, clenching his fists tightly, he stared at Ye Yang.

Ye Qingxuan couldn't stop her tears from flowing out. "Ye Yang, you have to hold on!"

A disciple of the Ye Family's mind went blank.

The disciples of the Zhao Family, the Gu siblings, all looked at Ye Yang worriedly. Gu Xiaoyue sobbed even harder.

Lan Caidie said. "Ye Yang, if you can survive this, you can definitely do it!"

Only Mu Bai looked at Ye Yang with a relaxed expression, the corners of his mouth curled up as if he was gloating at Ye Yang's misfortune, and was anticipating the scene of Ye Yang exploding on the spot.

At this moment of life and death, Ye Yang maintained a clear mind as he desperately revolved the cyclone and continuously absorbed it. Every time the cyclone spun, it would become stronger.

With the growth of the cyclone, the faster it rotates, the less pressure it would have. Ye Yang saw a glimmer of hope.

He had to absorb all of the zhenqi before his body could shatter. He had to go all out to circulate his zhenqi.

The outside world looked at Ye Yang's broken body, and surprisingly endured for half an incense's time.

Although his figure was on the verge of collapse, for him to be able to hold on for such a long period of time, regardless of whether he was friends or foes, they couldn't help but admire his perseverance.

It had to be known that in the Nine Underworld Heaven Stairway, the ultimate test of Tian Wu Academy, not only the students' potential, perception, aptitude, and cultivation was important, but also their perseverance and perseverance.

How far a martial artist could go was absolutely related to their perseverance. If one didn't have superhuman perseverance and tenacity, then no matter how talented one was, it would be useless.

A joss stick.

Two incense sticks of time passed.

One hour.

Although Ye Yang still looked extremely pathetic on the outside, he was still like a candle in the wind, as if he could be extinguished at any moment.

However, everyone knew that the longer the battle dragged on, the better it would be for Ye Yang. Whether it was the people outside of the Heaven Stairway or on the Heaven Stairway, everyone stared at Ye Yang. In such a huge arena, it was so quiet that even a needle dropping onto the ground could be heard.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Ye Yang's trembling slowly stopped. Ye Yang let out a long sigh of relief and secretly wiped off the cold sweat from his heart.

If the pressure from earlier had been even greater, Ye Yang would've definitely been crushed into smithereens, without even a trace of his corpse remaining.

I won't be able to play like this anymore. I'll definitely lose my life. Ye Yang made up his mind and swore to himself.

However, when he felt that the whirlpool within his dantian had expanded to an unimaginable extent, his determination had wavered a bit.

"Should I try again?"
