She laughed.
The Killing Qi stored within her body suddenly erupted, turning into substance, like mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, causing fear at a single glance.
Jiang Ming’s pupils shrank.
“I’ve returned from the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield, and if I didn’t have an iron will, I wouldn’t have been able to survive among the many geniuses.” Ji Yunning said as she withdrew all her Killing Qi and looked at him with slight seriousness. “Seeing my Killing Qi and not being affected, you must be a decisive person too. Very good, excellent. Only with decisiveness can one go further. Brother Jiang, I’ll go ahead. When it’s time for the round battle, I will definitely have a good competition with you.”
She flicked her clothes and stepped onto the 46th step, corresponding to the willpower of the Sixth Realm.
She slightly wobbled but steadied herself and closed her eyes.
This wasn’t because she couldn’t do it, but instead she was trying to comprehend.
“Is this what a true genius is?”
“Just how cruel is the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield?”
Jiang Ming was proud of himself.
He wouldn’t lose to anyone.
But now, he truly realized how terrifying these geniuses were, far beyond ordinary people.
They were born strong, and became even more terrifying when they acquired more power.
If he didn’t cheat, he would fall behind.
He looked back.
Long Aotian had stepped onto the 42nd step, his Blood Qi surging, and a dragon shadow circled above his head, making him look incredibly imposing, like the son of a True Dragon.
In the courtyard.
“Those geniuses are truly terrifying. If I had been in their group back then, 1 would definitely have been overshadowed.” Instructor Yu sighed. “Old Tang, do you think Jiang can still have a chance to take first place?”
“Yes, he definitely can!” Elder Tang laughed. “Who could have imagined he would take first place during the Sea Election? At the Provincial Examination, there were hidden elites like Long Aotian and Lan Xin from the Hidden Major Clan, as well as Qiang Jiu. Who dared to believe that he could win the championship? Yet, he did it. He even defeated all the geniuses without moving during the Provincial Examination. How incredible.”
“Although there are many geniuses now, he’s not bad. He can really fight them head-on!”
“1 believe he can suppress them all!”
“I also believe he can create miracles.”
“Because I saw him grow step by step. It’s truly unbelievable, Little Yu.”
Elder Tang’s voice was resolute.
“If he finally wins first place...” Instructor Yu’s voice trembled. He looked at the projection screen in front of him and frowned. “It’s just too difficult. Look, more than twenty people have surpassed him. The first one, called Shi Lei, has reached the 51st step with his Supreme Bone!”
“Jiang isn’t bad. Look at him; he’s calm and his manifestations aren’t obvious. He’s very steady. 1 guess he’s comprehending the subtleties of the Heavenly Ladder’s impact on the heart and trying to gain an insight into something.” Elder Tang laughed. “This youngster’s comprehension is absolutely demon-like.”
Pingyang City, Second Level.
“Holy shit, Jiang Ming is really surrounded by beauties. Look, one is surrounded by divine light, another has soaring Sword Qi, and another is enveloped by cold mist. Not only are they beautiful, but they’re also geniuses. If 1 were him, I’d be happy to die.”
“Is this the glory of being the Top Selection? 1 really want to slap myself. Why didn’t I cultivate seriously back then? If 1 did, maybe I could have made it!”
“Haha, Liu Yi, don’t kid yourself! With your two-bit talent, even if you started cultivating in your mother’s womb, it wouldn’t be enough.”
“The competition has begun! Finally, it’s starting. Everyone, watch Jiang Ming take them all on and leave them in the dust.”
“Wait, why is Jiang Ming so slow? He’s been left behind by several steps. Could it be...”
“Has his potential been exhausted? Or is he just incomparable to the real geniuses?”
“Sigh, after all, he’s from the same civilian background as us. He can’t compare to their background or their extraordinary constitutions. The fact that Jiang Ming isn’t left too far behind is enough to prove his talent.”
“Who said that!” Wang Fatty stood up and said, “Jiang Ming is the latest to climb the steps, but the time he takes for each step is almost the same. What does this mean? It means that the ladder test has no effect on him! Besides, even if he can’t win first place in the end, none of us combined could compare to him..”
