Twelve chapters left everyone speechless!
“What's going on? It's already been over half an hour, why is senior brother Tan still cultivating…”
“Yes! Even if senior brother Tan has started climbing the pagoda now, it's too late! In just two quarters of an hour, one whole hour will have passed!”
The disciples were anxious.
Lai Chang frowned, wanting to remind Tan Yun, but was interrupted by Shen Qingfeng shaking his head, softly saying, “This brat has his own concerns and plans; there’s no need to remind him.”
“Mm.” Lai Chang nodded and cupped his hands towards Shen Qingfeng, saying, “Elder Shen, with such a monstrous talent emerging from the Spirit Mountain Herb Garden, it’s likely that in five years or at most three years, when Tan Yun achieves great perfection of the fetal soul realm and dominates the Inner Sect's Crouching Dragon Rankings, you’ll be promoted!”
“Hahaha, let’s hope this kid can achieve something great. It’s only natural for me to benefit from that,” Shen Qingfeng sincerely remarked. “After all, I must thank my second brother Qingqiu; he truly has the vision!”
“Elder Lai, what do you think? Back then, none of the major leaders wanted Tan Yun, all calling him useless. But now, look at this kid; he’s a genius specifically meant to eliminate other talents!”
Upon hearing this, Lai Chang readily agreed, “Indeed, indeed. I also heard about how Tan Yun was rejected by all the leaders back then...”
Before Lai Chang could finish his sentence, Shen Subing coldly interjected, “According to Elder Lai, since he was rejected, why is Tan Yun still appearing in the Danmai?”
Listening to the conversation of Lai Chang and Shen Qingfeng, Shen Subing felt uneasy, as if the two were also talking about her. After all, if not for Shen Qingqiu's insistence, she would not have accepted Tan Yun.
Elder Lai was momentarily struck dumb, falling silent.
“Enough, don’t say anymore.” Shen Subing took a deep breath and said calmly, “Indeed, I misjudged him at the beginning. But regardless, I still accepted Tan Yun into the Danmai; that is an unchangeable fact.”
“Yes, yes, yes, what the leader said is absolutely correct.” Lai Chang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Shen Qingfeng felt quite awkward at this moment, especially since the young lady was staring at him.
“Everyone, look quickly, senior brother Tan is up!” Suddenly, a disciple shouted.
Everyone turned their attention and saw Tan Yun, surrounded by spiritual power swirling around him, standing up!
“Tan Yun!” At this moment, Shen Qingfeng said, “Promise me, just do your best.”
Tan Yun nodded heavily, and then his expression grew serious. Streams of faint golden spiritual power surged from the spirit pool in his brow, coiling around him like golden pythons!
Seeing this, everyone concluded that Tan Yun was going all out to challenge the 102nd level under the 189 times gravity!
At this moment, the disciples couldn’t help but hold their breath, watching to see if Tan Yun could step onto the first step towards the 102nd level without falling. The next scene left everyone, including Shen Subing, utterly shocked!
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
Tan Yun suddenly dashed into the steps leading to the 102nd level, transforming into a series of afterimages, flashing upwards as if the 189 times gravity had no impact on him at all!
Only then did everyone realize, Tan Yun had not used his full strength when he ascended to the 101st level!
“Look! Senior brother Tan has reached the 102nd level...” A female disciple’s shout abruptly ceased, followed by a frenzied scream, “Senior brother Tan is so fast! He didn’t even stop at the 102nd level and is now challenging the 103rd level!”
Before the girl could finish her words, the entire place erupted!
“What a monster! What a monster!” Shen Qingfeng, stepping on his Flying Sword, had tears streaming down his elderly face!
Those were tears of joy!
“Too amazing! Too amazing!” Shen Wende also shouted without any semblance of an elder's demeanor, “Leader, look! Tan Yun has reached the 103rd level of the pagoda; he has broken the rule that no one has climbed to the 103rd level for thirty thousand years!”
