1340 All Twenty
No matter what the outcome was if the others took the Cloud Ascension Ladder, Xue Fanxin walked her own way seriously. She absorbed the floating power of every step to the limit before walking up.
She had spent a total of twenty hours on the first nine steps, almost two days.
In the past two days, the other trial disciples had already been sent flying countless times. A small half of them had already given up and crushed their jade badges to leave the secret realm. Even if the remaining people had not left the secret realm, they did not dare to casually walk the Cloud Ascension Ladder anymore, because every time they were sent flying back, they would be thrown quite heavily. Even if their bodies were made of iron, they could not withstand such a fall.
Sang Ruoxin was still stuck at the ninth step. No matter how hard she tried, she could not reach the tenth step and could not catch up to Chu Yunhan.
Chu Yunhan had already climbed to the 25th step, but he could not even stand up now. The spirit energy in his body was almost exhausted. It could be seen that he had already reached the limit and could not take another step forward.
Gu Qingning could not move on the 20th step. Her situation was similar to Chu Yunhan’s. Reaching the 20th step was already her limit, so she could not walk through the Cloud Ascension Stairs at all.
Even geniuses like Chu Yunhan and Gu Qingning could not walk past the Cloud Ascension Stairs, let alone others.
“The Cloud Ascension Stairs is too difficult to walk on.”
“It’s simply harder than ascending to the heavens.”
“Forget it, forget it. It looks like no one will obtain the power of inheritance in this new student secret realm trial.”
“Look, the five people from the Yellow Cla.s.s have actually reached the tenth step.”
“Brother, they took two days to reach the tenth step. What’s there to be shocked about?”
“But don’t you think it’s strange that they weren’t sent flying by the mysterious force on the tenth step? Forget about Xue Fanxin, but how could the others all reach the tenth step in one go?”
“Oh right, what’s going on with these people from Yellow Cla.s.s?”
“Could it be that they have some technique to climb the Cloud Ascension Stairs?”
Previously, no one had paid attention to the situation of the five people from the Yellow Cla.s.s. They only knew that they had stayed on every step for half a day. During this time, quite a few people had mocked them. But now, when the five people from the Yellow Cla.s.s all walked up the tenth step in one go, everyone was shocked and did not dare to mock them anymore.
It had to be known that more than half of the disciples who could come here could not pa.s.s the tenth step.
Xue Fanxin ignored the gazes and words of the people around her and kept walking on the Cloud Ascension Stairs seriously. When she reached the tenth step, she immediately felt a powerful force pressing down on her. The gravity under her feet seemed to have increased, and she needed some strength to lift her legs.
From the tenth step onwards, there no longer seemed to be any floating power. However, the gravity of each step was different and gradually increased.
Fortunately, she had absorbed quite a few floating forces in the first nine steps. These floating forces could more or less resist the current gravity.
It seemed that the mystery of the first twenty steps of the Cloud Ascension Stairs was here. The first nine steps would collect the floating power. Starting from the tenth step, the floating power that had been collected previously would be used to reduce the pressure the gravity brought to her.
It was not only Xue Fanxin who saw this. The other four people from the Yellow Cla.s.s were the same, so they all walked up the twentieth step and stood in a row.
This scene blinded everyone behind her, especially Sang Ruoxin. Her heart was filled with anger and unwillingness.
She could not even climb the tenth step. Why could those people from the Yellow Cla.s.s reach the twentieth step in one go?
Could it be related to them standing there in a daze previously?
