The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

As news of Song Gua's second challenge spread, more and more people gathered in front of the challenge monument.

"Eighth floor!"

"Ninth floor!"

"Holy crap, isn't this ninth level of the boiling oil hell supposed to involve going down into a vat of boiling oil to find some human skulls? How did he get through it in less than half a minute?!"

"The tenth floor, the eleventh floor, the twelfth floor! It's stopped moving. Is it finally getting a bit challenging for him?"

Within the eighteen levels of hell, the twelfth level is the Mortar and Pestle Hell.

"Old Deng, wait a bit before you start. The brothers have been through hell and high water, let me catch my breath and have something to eat and drink."

A group of exhausted clones set up tents on the twelfth floor and rested for a while.

It's probably within the privileges of those who have transcended to the mortal realm that Song Gua allows the challenge to be paused, allowing them to rest before continuing.

The clones are playing cards, board games, hide-and-seek, and even engaging in homosexual activities.

Excited.

Repairs complete.

"Old Deng, you can let the monster in now."

The twelfth floor challenge is definitely the real deal.

10 level 30 monsters, designated as bosses!

This was a tough battle; the bandits fought for a full 4.81 seconds before ending the fight.

"Bang!"

"Damn it! Whose magic missile hit my butt?!"

"Don't blame me, you guys were way too fast. My skill animation wasn't even finished before all the monsters were killed, but I couldn't stop the skills, so I just fired one randomly."

"Damn it! You're just taking revenge on me because you have a grudge against me!"

"Hey you, Kujo, stop spouting nonsense and making baseless accusations. Do you think I, Kujo, am that kind of person?!"

"Stop arguing, stop arguing, we're all brothers."

"Get out of the way, you cannon fodder! The elites are talking, the cannon fodder shouldn't interrupt!"

"You old bastard! They discriminate against me! Waaaaah... I can't live anymore, I'm going to self-destruct!"

Song Gua collected all the messy clones.

The world is much quieter now.

There was silence for less than a second.

They kept arguing in their heads.

Fortunately, Song Gua had mastered the skill of being able to ignore the sounds in his head, so these sounds could not disturb him.

With more people around, these trivial squabbles are very common; you just get used to them.

Sometimes, the hardest person to get along with is yourself.

After clearing the twelfth floor, a similar choice appears as before.

Without a moment's hesitation, Song Gua continued to challenge downwards.

According to online guides...

Of the remaining six floors, only one is not about fighting monsters; the rest are all about grinding for monsters.

However, what's disgusting is that the monster's status has been elevated to BOSS level!

No wonder there are so few people who can conquer the eighteen levels of hell.

How many people can solo a boss, even if the boss is only level 30? — This boss is not a wild boss, but a boss in a dungeon, whose health bar will not be multiplied by hundreds or thousands of times.

But, fighting monsters?

Song Gua loves fighting monsters the most.

Before he could even see what the BOSS looked like, the clones had already swarmed in and divided the BOSS up.

They were all clamoring to grab the loot.

As a result, none of the monsters here dropped anything, including the bosses.

This greatly disappointed all the clones.

The last level of the eighteen levels of hell is slightly different from the one in myths and legends; it is not the hell of sawing and beheading, but the hell of endless suffering.

In the final level, Yama (the King of Hell) no longer pronounces any charges against him.

This means that everyone faces the same challenges.

The last level is a maze.

Challengers must navigate the maze within a set time limit to complete the challenge.

Some troublesome monsters roam the maze. They are not strong in combat, but they are hard to kill. Their main strategy is to entangle and delay the challenger.

The maze also contains traps; sometimes your feet will collapse, sometimes an iron cage will fall from above, sometimes you'll be roasted by fire, sometimes frozen by ice, and there are also iron trees, copper pillars, oil cauldrons, mountains of knives, and seas of fire that you've encountered in previous levels.

Very troublesome.

It's very troublesome.

Professionals can use money and massive resources to raise their training level at level 30 to 80% or even 90%!

However, no matter how high your combat power is, it's not very meaningful against the design of the eighteenth floor.

On this floor, it's all about luck.

Some people have said that the best way to get through a maze is to pour water into it from the entrance.

Water will naturally find its way out.

That's exactly what Song Gua did.

He released his clones at the entrance, and they surged in, one after another, crashing and filling all the crossroads.

Song Gua organized their memories.

The route is out.

Customs clearance successful.

"Brothers, get ready for the second job advancement!"

After completing the game, all the mazes disappeared, and the surrounding environment remained the same huge underground cave.

A portal appeared ahead.

But Song Gua was in no hurry to leave.

Complete the second job advancement procedures first before proceeding.

Those dozen or so level 30 clones will also be undergoing their second transformation!

They are all A-level professions, but after upgrading to the second job advancement, they will all become S-level professions!

Song Gua did not intend to give them exclusive titles.

S-class professions are becoming too common.

Giving them a starting position is acceptable, considering they were among the first to be promoted from Rank A, so it has some commemorative significance.

In the future, exclusive titles should still be given to those clones who become S-rank professions after their first job advancement, as they have greater potential.

Outside the Eighteen Levels of Hell, near the Challenge Monument, the area is already packed with people.

The names on this monument decrease sharply with each subsequent square.

From the twelfth floor onwards, there was no one at all.

There is only one name, relentlessly and unstoppably moving downwards.

Song Gua!

"What kind of god-like figure is this! He reached the eighteenth floor in less than two hours!"

"Are we about to beat the game? Is his class about to level up?"

"A 19-year-old second-job class specialist! The youngest ever!"

"It doesn't seem so. I heard that the three major clans in our administrative region all have their supernovas who advance to the second class in less than a year after their initial class change. However, I can't tell whether it's January or December."

"How can the people of the three major clans compare? They directly arrange for their clan's third-tier experts to form teams and take their newcomers to the forbidden zone to grind for experience against the creatures there! That experience isn't limited by experience fatigue, it's outrageous!"

"It would be absurd for a large clan with thousands of years of history not to do this."

"Song Gua seems to have no special background, so it's absurd that he can keep up with the progress of the three major clans' supernovas!"

"Song Gua might have some hidden background. I don't really believe he achieved what he has today all by himself."

Just as everyone was discussing it.

As you can see, the name of the Song hexagram has dropped one level from the eighteenth level.

The name of this last square is: Level Cleared!

Song Gua has cleared the eighteen levels of hell and gained the opportunity to upgrade and change jobs!

This news will spread rapidly online through various social media platforms.

The name Song Gua has once again topped various trending searches after more than three months since he last broke the level 25 dungeon record.

In fact, every year there are new talents who break through the 18th floor.

However, most of them come from prominent families or have powerful backgrounds.

With the support of massive resources, the fact that the connection was made is hardly news, and few people would specifically report on it.

The Song hexagram is different.

His background is worlds apart from that of so-called prestigious families.

Whether his background is deep or not is unclear to everyone, but the public is more willing to believe that he has no background and has not joined any faction, which makes it more relatable.
