Eight Desolate Valkyries

Chapter 25 Break the record
"We absolutely can't lose to him in the third round."

Yunyang gritted his teeth, looked back at the figure behind his eyes, and then walked up the stone ladder step by step, walking on his left and right were all elite disciples of the tenth level of body building, with a difference of only three or four stone stairs, engaged in the final competition .

The higher the climb to the end of the ladder, the stronger the pressure. It is too strong to be able to compete with willpower. Only by building ten weights can one climb the [-] stone ladders and continue to climb up, competing for the top ten rankings.

However, these elite disciples were not paying attention to each other at this time. Instead, like Yunyang, they frequently looked back at Luo Cheng who was following a hundred stone steps behind.

Luo Cheng was alone in contrast to the twenty elite disciples.

Now it is the third thousandth stone ladder, except for the elite disciples, the others have already given up, but this Zhuti Jiuzhong followed behind, chasing after him at a leisurely pace.

Reminiscing that he had just successfully defeated Yunyang, these elite disciples couldn't help but think to themselves: Is this guy with a nine-fold body building going to defeat them on the rooftop?

Unknowingly, these elite disciples began to speed up their pace, but they didn't want to end up being stepped on like Yunyang.

However, after going up another five hundred stone stairs, they looked back, and Luo Cheng was still following behind, but he was obviously exhausted and a little precarious.

"Junior brother is not bad, work hard." An elite disciple said mockingly.

"Yeah, maybe we can surpass elite disciples like us, but we need to work harder." Another elite disciple said more directly.

"Humph."

Yan Mo curled his lips, he didn't want a Zhushen Jiuzhong to ride on his head, like a defeated Yunyang.

Most of the elite disciples also thought the same way. Although they were used to competing with each other on weekdays, a guy from the Ninth Layer of Body Building who threatened their majesty suddenly appeared and immediately united the front.

Fortunately, judging by Luo Cheng's appearance, it shouldn't last long.

Luo Cheng didn't know how to describe his feeling at this moment, the movement of raising his feet was already subconscious, and the exercises in his body began to operate under the influence of pressure, and he could see the villain when he closed his eyes, and he was trying to step on the first step. At the time of [-] stone steps, the limit has been reached, and the internal energy in the dantian has been exhausted, but after adjusting the breath and meditating, the recovered internal energy will be more pure.

But I don't know why, just when Luo Cheng felt that it was about the same, the martial soul began to operate in this state, and it turned out to be the same as cultivation, absorbing the vitality of the world and consuming it at the same time, making the body like a furnace in operation, busy in a different way.

This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, but after he climbed up one stone ladder after another, he knew it was time to test his perseverance.

The resting disciples under the ladder were also paying attention to the situation above. They saw that there was a long blank area starting from the [-] stone ladder. If you continue to go up, you will see Luo Cheng alone. Not far from Luo Cheng, there is a group of elites disciple.

"Amazing."

Seeing Luo Cheng's performance, many outer disciples showed admiration.

Luo Chengjian Jiuzhong defeated Yunyang because of his genius two-handed swordsmanship. Now this stone ladder is a test of internal strength, and perseverance is only second.But this Luo Cheng actually set aside those disciples who were also at the ninth level of body building, and even overtook the elite disciples.

"Does Luo Cheng still want to catch up with the elite disciples?"

"If he can do it, won't he be the number one disciple of the outer sect when he reaches the tenth level of body building?"

A disciple said it unintentionally, and immediately attracted the attention of all the disciples around him. With so many people staring at him, he realized that he had said something wrong.

The title of the number one outer disciple is too heavy, even the arrogant Yun Yang, the proud Yan Mo, and the domineering Lei Meng dare not call themselves the number one outer disciple.

So the surrounding disciples were a little contemptuous when they heard this at first, but after thinking about it, it seems quite possible...

After [-] stone stairs, the legs of more than [-] elite disciples seemed to be filled with lead, and it was difficult to move an inch. However, everyone knew that starting from [-] stone stairs was the real elimination, and there would be at least a dozen disciples queuing up. Out of the ten, the remaining disciples tried their best to fight for the advantage of a stone ladder.

Before that, the elite disciple estimated the time and planned to start resting.

"I'm going to attack the six thousand stone ladder today." Lei Meng cursed.

"I still want to climb to the top." Yunyang mocked bluntly.

Maybe it was because he was too tired, Lei Meng just gave Yunyang a look, and did not continue to express his opinion.

The other disciples were not interested in watching the excitement, so they took out water bottles one after another.

At this moment, Yan, the number one disciple in the palm of the outer sect, held the water bottle by himself, raised his head and poured it into his mouth. Suddenly a shadow appeared from below, blocking the sunlight. He moved his eyes to look, and was so shocked that he even spat out the water. .

The rest of the elite disciples looked sideways, and they all responded in the same way.

Luo Cheng, who was following behind just now, was actually standing on a step just one step away from them, and was climbing up step by step with their ghostly expressions on their faces.

Suddenly, Luo Cheng stopped among these elite disciples, glanced at them, and began to move his mouth.

"You guys have to work hard."

After the voice fell, Luo Cheng continued to walk up.

"My God, what kind of monster is this man?"

The elite disciples couldn't help being agitated. They thought that Luo Cheng would give up resting, because even they were already feeling exhausted, and planned to make a final sprint, so they naturally forgot about Luo Cheng.

But now...

Especially what Luo Cheng said made these elite disciples so angry that they stood up one after another, ignoring rest and chasing after them.

The disciples who gave up below were relatively slow, and only discovered this scene now. The first person who discovered it only saw that Luo Cheng, who was alone behind the elite disciples, came to the front at some point! !
"What kind of monster is this man?"

"I know him, a genius in Da Luoyu. I heard that he developed internal strength at the age of eight, but later he participated in the king's assessment and was crippled by someone."

"It seems that what was abolished was only internal strength, not the talent he developed internal strength at the age of eight."

These disciples couldn't help admiring, and because they were too far apart, no one noticed that Luo Cheng's internal strength had reached the tenth level of body building, and his dantian was like a container filled with water, constantly boiling.

He didn't know what was going on, but under the pressure, the martial spirit that was aroused seemed to have been taken medicine and was out of control, allowing his "Nine Heavens Kung Fu" to reach the peak of the first level, and his internal strength also reached the tenth level of body building. It is only one step away from stepping into the Qi Refining Realm and becoming an inner disciple.

Luo Cheng believed that if he returned to the family with the strength of Qi Refining Realm, he would definitely surprise those who read his jokes.

Before he knew it, Luo Cheng didn't realize that he had walked up to seven thousand stone stairs.

"This man is a monster..."

The elite disciple lay on the stone ladder as if paralyzed, looking at Luo Cheng who was getting taller and taller, he couldn't help thinking.

When there were [-] stone stairs, all the outer disciples started to make a sensation, because it meant that Luo Cheng would soon be able to break the record.

When Luo Cheng stepped up a stone ladder and reached 880 stone stairs, all the disciples shouted loudly, and a new record was created.

However, the cry didn't last long, and was replaced by expectation and disbelief, because Luo Cheng was still climbing.

When reaching nine thousand steps.

The three elders all changed color and looked at each other.

.........

At the 98th step, everyone stopped breathing and looked at Luo Cheng's back without blinking. When he raised one foot and followed up with the other, all the elite disciples went crazy because Luo Cheng completed their steps. It is impossible to accomplish a feat in the heart, and the same is true for those elite disciples.

"Those who can climb the ladder will be like gods of war in the future."

The faces of the three elders were rosy, and the words of a strong man sounded in their minds.However, after nearly a thousand years, countless disciples fell on the stone ladders, and the most dazzling genius only completed [-] stone ladders, but now that person is the most distinctive member of the Dragon Guard in the kingdom.

Luo Cheng's legs were trembling, and his face was a little pale. It was a sign of prostration. After he realized that he might be able to climb the ladder, he felt an impulse in his heart, so he persisted. After the last trace of internal strength was exhausted, he finally came to the top.

I'm afraid he will never forget the scene in front of him in his whole life. It's an angle like overlooking the sky. It's as high as the clouds. The mountains and rivers are like looking at a map, but there is a world of difference between the two. The other disciples on the stairs are as small as ants.

"However... how should I go down?" Luo Cheng didn't have the strength to go any further.

Fortunately, the three elders in charge held one in each hand and brought the disciple from the high place down.

And at the foot of the mountain, three elders announced the rankings.

Luo Cheng is undoubtedly the first, Lei Meng and Yan Mo are tied for second, Yan Zi and Yunyang are tied for third, and the others are all unknown disciples.

The reward for No.1 is 1 contribution points, and Luo Cheng is eligible to choose the superior martial arts of ordinary rank at will. This is almost the treatment of inner disciples. It should be known that No.[-] last year only got a copy of superior martial arts of ordinary rank.

Afterwards, breaking through three levels was officially over, but the commotion caused by Luo Cheng still affected the entire outer disciples, and even the inner disciples were discussing it.

And there are people with good deeds calling Luo Cheng the number one disciple of the outer sect. It is strange to say that if it were someone else, the challengers would already be full of people, but Luo Cheng's courtyard is very deserted, and those proud elite disciples pretended not to listen over these words.

Luo Cheng rested for half a day before he recovered his energy. Feeling the abundant internal force in his body, he knew that he was not far from the Qi Refining Realm.

According to memory, when the internal force reaches the bottleneck, there will be a qualitative change in the dantian, and the internal force will change into true qi, and the first-floor true qi is by no means comparable to the internal force.

At the same time, Luo Cheng still needs to further study his hands and swords. During the battle with Yunyang, he also found many shortcomings.

This is not about the sword technique. Although Yufengjian is not as good as Yunyang, it does not mean that the sword technique is weak. On the contrary, with Yunyang's strength, it can only be said that he does not have enough mastery of the sword technique.

For example, now that he has built ten weights, he can defeat Yunyang with just his right hand.
