A comparison of the two Douluo, starting with Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang.

Under the watchful eyes of Xu Aoxin and Chen Ming, Yu Xiaogang continued his ascent.

The pressure on Qingyun Road is lower than that of the similarly level Poseidon's Light, but it increases the mental demands.

Ke Yu Xiaogang's spiritual power has always far surpassed that of ordinary Soul Masters.

Even most Title Douluos don't possess mental power at my level.

This allowed Yu Xiaogang to disregard the mental pressure ahead while simultaneously enduring the weakening physical strain and advancing rapidly.

And so it went, two hundred steps, three hundred steps, four hundred steps...

[As Yu Xiaogang unleashed his trump cards one by one—domains, martial soul possession, and so on—…]

He stood on the 601st step without any hindrance. This was the highest point he had reached during his ascent in the Light of the Sea God, and also the place where a level 95 Title Douluo could stand.

Now, Yu Xiaogang stands here once again, and continues to move forward.

Below, Xu Aoxin, standing on the fifty-second step, stared wide-eyed.

During Yu Xiaogang's journey from one hundred steps to six hundred steps, she only climbed these two steps.

[This was already the result of Xu Aoxin adjusting her state and making every effort.]

[Because she has experienced it, she finds it incredible now.]

"Six hundred steps, and it's still going. What's going on with him?"

[If the sixty-second level he was at was already this terrifying, Xu Aoxin couldn't imagine the immense pressure that would be at the six hundredth level.]

[That would require at least late-stage level eight to achieve the "Touch" effect, right? And it would have to be someone like them, a super genius at late-stage level eight.]

However, Yu Xiaogang is now standing on that platform.

This is simply unbelievable!

[In other words, Xu Aoxin didn't ask Chen Ming, who was standing like a statue behind her, what the place Yu Xiaogang had climbed to represented.]

"Who...who...who exactly is he?"

Chen Ming trembled as he watched the commotion on Yu Xiaogang's side.

[Back then, a level nine, five-star powerhouse attempted to charge towards the highest point.]

But ultimately, the other party couldn't even reach the 500th step before being unable to climb any further.

[As for ordinary level 5, 6, or even 7 powerhouses, they generally fluctuate around the hundredth level.]

Those who can break through to the hundredth level are usually eighth-level powerhouses, or they are extremely powerful geniuses who can rival eighth-level experts at the seventh level.

According to the climbers, the various levels of the Qingyun Road can be used to judge a Soul Master's true strength.

Chen Ming didn't memorize the specific details, but he knew one thing: three hundred levels was the minimum standard for a level nine powerhouse.

Anyone who can reach the 300th level definitely possesses level nine strength. Regardless of whether their actual level is level nine or not, they certainly possess level nine combat power.

"So... that means Yu Xiaogang's actual strength is level nine?!"

Chen Ming felt he was having some difficulty breathing.

He had personally witnessed Yu Xiaogang's martial spirit and spirit rings.

[The Martial Soul Little Dragon, although its current enormous form has nothing to do with being small anymore.]

[Yu Xiaogang's spirit rings were a solid level six configuration, a mix of yellow, purple, and black.]

[But someone with this kind of configuration can climb six hundred steps on the Path to Success?]

In other words, a level six person possesses strength that would be considered formidable even among level nine individuals?

Chen Ming still remembered when that level nine, five-star expert came to Silvermoon City; it caused a sensation among all the Soul Masters in the city.

The city lord personally greeted him, and the three major powers each sent powerful figures to pay their respects. This scene greatly shocked the still-young Chen Ming, inspiring him to aspire to become strong and superior.

Unfortunately, ideas are one thing, and reality is another.

Only after truly striving did Chen Ming realize just how unattainable that level was.

But now, what do I see?

[A level six person achieved the rank of level nine, five-star powerhouse, and was flattered by the three major powers of Silvermoon City. Even in the entire Sun Moon Continent, this level of powerhouse is something that even top-tier experts cannot accomplish.]

"Am I really not dreaming?"

"Or does that guy have some kind of cheating method?"

Chen Ming muttered to himself.

Conforming to common sense won't shock people; deviating from common sense will make them gasp; and deviating significantly from common sense will leave them speechless.

As for people like Yu Xiaogang, who directly disregard common sense, Chen Ming no longer knows how to evaluate them.

He could only stand at a distance, babbling and watching it all, constantly wondering if he was dreaming.

On the other side, Yu Xiaogang, having successfully reached the 601st step, continued his ascent.

This time, I need to find a place that puts enough pressure on me to help me break through my current level.

Soon, Yu Xiaogang successfully reached the 620th step. After assessing the situation, he shook his head.

"The physical pressure here isn't enough, but the mental pressure is definitely there."

"I never imagined that my mental strength, which has always been ahead in level, would actually hold me back here?"

Yu Xiaogang found it unbelievable.

[After all, ever since his mental strength broke through under the pressure of Mount Tai, Yu Xiaogang's mental power has maintained a leading position.]

But now, on this path to success, mental strength has become an obstacle to his pursuit of greater pressure.

[My body is capable of going to places with greater pressure, but I'm unable to because of my mental limitations.]

It's not that the current pressure can't help me break through, but the feeling of being unable to have something better because of certain reasons always makes one feel resentful.

However, Yu Xiaogang's expression quickly hardened.

"Since mental strength has become an obstacle, then let's overcome this obstacle."

"It just so happens that my spiritual power has remained at this level long enough."

"While my exploration of spiritual power over the years hasn't reached the level of soul power and physical strength, the accumulation has been sufficient."

"Now is the perfect time to break through!"

Thinking this, Yu Xiaogang looked sharply ahead and took a firm step forward.

This time, however, physical soul power was no longer Yu Xiaogang's focus; his attention shifted from the body to the spirit.

Here, he aims to break through his current spiritual limitations in one fell swoop.

As Yu Xiaogang shifted his focus to the mental aspect, his mental fluctuations became unusually intense.

[If someone could see spiritual energy at this moment, they would see that Yu Xiaogang's spiritual energy was already raging like a storm.]
