He was resurrected indefinitely and handed over to the state by the headmistress.

However, the numbers on the screen continued to jump at an astonishing speed:

20th floor, 30th floor, 40th floor...

"Holy crap! I've made it to the 40th floor! I'm almost breaking the fastest record of the last ten years!"

"Damn it, that monster at the top of the Heavenly Ranking is about to get restless!"

"Oh no! He's reached floor 50! He's broken the record! He's broken the fastest record for clearing floor 50!"

Outside the tower, gasps of astonishment rose in waves; both students and professors wore expressions of shock.

The 50th floor of the Tower of Babel is a realm that requires a strength approaching level 200 to challenge!

Lu Chen was completely unaware of the commotion outside the tower; he was entirely immersed in the thrill of battle and leveling up.

60th floor, 70th floor, 80th floor...

The opponents they encountered became stronger and stronger, and the battles became more and more intense, from being defeated in a few punches to needing to take them seriously, and then to occasionally needing to dodge and block.

Moreover, his level soared to level 30, and his basic attributes increased accordingly, making him stronger and stronger in battle!

Finally, he arrived at the ninetieth floor.

The pressure here has suddenly increased dramatically!

Space seemed to freeze, as an invisible force of rules pressed down.

It made Lu Chen feel as if he were carrying a huge mountain on his back, making his movements sluggish.

More than half of his terrifying attributes were suppressed!

The opponent was a phantom image of an elderly man with white hair, holding a phantom "chessboard of heaven and earth".

With a wave of his hand, the crisscrossing lines of rules transformed into a cage, trapping Lu Chen within a chessboard-like world.

The old man's phantom was on the outside, unleashing a barrage of terrifying skills such as falling stars, earth fire, wind and water, bombarding Lu Chen within the chessboard.

"These guys... how come they seem more alive than the Kunlun Tower ones? They even have tactical coordination?"

Lu Chen was trapped inside the chessboard, possessing immense strength but unable to fully utilize it, feeling extremely frustrated.

He could only rely on his astonishing speed and physique, even when suppressed.

Within the limited space of the chessboard, players maneuver and withstand attacks from all sides, searching for an opportunity to break the deadlock.

This was the first time he had found himself in such a passive situation since entering the Tower of Babel.

Outside the tower, the crowd had become completely numb.

"9...90 floors...monsters...no, even more monstrous than monsters..."

Someone muttered to themselves, their voice hoarse.

The ninetieth floor of the Tower of Babel is a realm that requires a strength level of 230 or 240 to be qualified to challenge!

Many family patriarchs may never reach this level in their entire lives!

Lu Chen, a freshman who had just enrolled, actually did it!

"Terrifying..."

Even the most knowledgeable professors were completely flustered, exchanging bewildered glances, each seeing extreme shock in the other's eyes.

"Hahaha! Good! Great!"

Xuanyuan Shan laughed so hard his beard trembled, he was extremely pleased with himself.

This is the son-in-law of the Xuanyuan family!

Lu Chen fought head-on on the 90th floor, eventually wearing down his opponent.

Then he continued...

On the 91st floor, amidst volcanic lava, his clothes were burned. Despite the suppression of the rules, he stubbornly fought back, battling until the sky darkened.

On the 92nd floor, in the swampy terrain, his speed was severely limited. Fortunately, he had plenty of stamina and managed to wear down his opponent. After all, he was a man who could fight continuously for seven days and seven nights without any problems...

93rd floor...

94th floor.......

With each level you ascend, your strength is suppressed even more severely.

By the time we reached the 95th floor, less than one in ten remained.

This layer is a deep, lightless, chaotic sea, where every drop of "seawater" weighs a thousand pounds.

The terrifying pressure pressed in from all directions, rendering Lu Chen completely immobile.

The opponent, on the other hand, transformed into a phantom of a mermaid queen, manipulating a dark current as heavy as lead and mercury.

Countless whirlpools and torrents formed, frantically impacting and tearing at Lu Chen's body.

"Damn it!"

A sense of powerlessness welled up in Lu Chen's heart.

In this environment, his advantage in strength is greatly diminished.

Its speed was also severely limited, as if it were stuck in a quagmire.

"If only I could merge with Xiyu..."

The thought flashed through my mind again.

He tried to call out to Hua Xiyu in his heart and activate the "Twin Lotus Blossoms".

"My lord, no, there are powerful world rules restricting us here; we cannot merge..."

Hua Xiyu's message, filled with apology, arrived.

Although they cannot merge, they can still communicate through a special soul connection.

Lu Chen was disappointed, but he was not discouraged.

He gritted his teeth and pushed his physical attributes to the limit.

They withstood the terrifying water pressure and the relentless attacks from the mermaid queen's phantom.

Each time he swung his fist, it seemed exceptionally heavy.

But it remained fierce and unmatched, scattering the approaching undercurrents.

The battle was exceptionally difficult, and fine wounds began to appear on Lu Chen's body.

But his eyes remained sharp, fixed on the elusive figure that swam nimbly in the deep sea.

Finally, after withstanding another terrifying wave of vortex-like destruction,

Lu Chen felt that his strength and speed were already nearing their limits.

He glared fiercely at the mermaid phantom and decisively chose to withdraw.

"Buzz—"

With a flash of light, Lu Chen's slightly disheveled figure tumbled out of the light gate of the Tower of Babel.

His clothes were somewhat torn and still damp, and his breathing was slightly disordered.

But his eyes shone brightly like stars, his fighting spirit undiminished.

"They're out!"

All eyes outside the tower instantly focused on him, filled with awe.

"Why is it a stranger?!"

Some of the older students stared wide-eyed as Lu Chen emerged from the portal of light in the Tower of Babel.

The unfamiliar face and youthful appearance were not at all the powerful figures they knew.

"I already said I'm a freshman!"

The guy who was mocked before was now triumphant, his voice rising eight octaves as he finally found an opportunity to give back fiercely.

"A monster..."

Huo Sanlang and his accomplices were utterly terrified; their faces turned deathly pale, and their legs went weak.

He collapsed to the ground, unable to stand up.

This new student has shown strength that is even more monstrous than that monster who has dominated the top spot on the Heavenly Ranking for years!

If they had known this would happen, how could they have dared to provoke the other party?

"This guy..."

Sima Zhuang pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes cold and heavy.

The existence of Lu Chen is already a huge threat.

His mind raced as he pondered how to eliminate this threat as soon as possible.

Lu Chen took a deep breath to calm the blood and qi in his body that had been churning slightly due to the battle.

His level ultimately stopped at 39, just one step away from level 40.

He shook his head helplessly; the omnipresent suppression of rules within the Tower of Babel was simply too intense.

Especially after the 90th floor, the feeling of being restricted and cramped is extremely uncomfortable.

"My husband!"

Upon seeing this, Hua Xiyu quickly ran over, her beautiful face full of heartache.

She took out a clean, dry towel and gently wiped the water stains off Lu Chen's face and hair.

Without hesitation, she reached out and removed Lu Chen's wet shirt, which had been torn during the battle.

His well-defined, explosively powerful muscles were on full display.

"So charming..."

Among the crowd, some female seniors who hadn't had sex in a long time stared wide-eyed.

Their gazes were fixed on Lu Chen as if drawn by a magnet.

He swallowed involuntarily, his eyes almost bulging with tears.

However, Hua Xiyu didn't give them any more chances to feast their eyes.

She quickly took out a brand-new white shirt from her storage equipment and deftly draped it over Lu Chen's shoulders.

Then, one button at a time, carefully buttoned them up.

His alluring muscles were completely concealed.
