Chapter 579 Killing the Heavenly Emperor

This giant peak is extremely majestic, but at the top seven-tenths of the way up, it curves into an arc, resembling the number "7".

There are several creases on the mountainside, which look less like the number seven and more like... a finger!

A bent finger!

Su Ping's pupils dilated, feeling utterly bewildered.

This giant peak is actually a severed finger?

Was it the severed finger he saw in a hallucination caused by that unknown force?

If that's the case, then what an imposing physique the original of this finger must have been!

Su Ping was stunned and speechless for a long time.

If he hadn't seen many magnificent and extraordinary creatures in the nurturing world, he would never have made such a connection at this moment. However, he had seen some extremely magnificent creatures in some advanced nurturing worlds and in the chaotic undead realm. Some of these creatures were hundreds of miles long, and their skeletons were like a mountain range.

"Is this Dragon Martial Tower the finger of that self-proclaimed Emperor Killer?"

"If that's the case, this slayer of the Heavenly Emperor must be a powerhouse beyond the stars—that's terrifying!"

"The Dragon Martial Tower of the True Martial Academy, the place where generations of students cultivate and test their talents, is actually a severed finger!"

Su Ping became increasingly convinced that it was a severed finger.

The evil spirits and blood demons he encountered in the Dragon Martial Tower were very likely creatures that rotted and grew from inside the severed finger, as were the sharp bone worms.

These sharp-boned insects feed on the flesh and blood of this finger; no wonder their claws are so sharp and their carapace so hard.

"This emperor-slaying man has been dead for countless years. The dazzling, invincible sword light I just saw was most likely the last image recorded by this finger, along with that roar echoing..."

Su Ping was somewhat alarmed. Countless years had passed, yet a severed finger had not decayed and had even recorded some things. This level of cultivation was beyond his imagination and beyond his comprehension.

"Joanna should know about this level of cultivation. If I ask her later, she will probably know." Su Ping thought to himself. Joanna's true form is at the level of the Order God of the Demigod Fall, second only to the Supreme God. As for whether the Supreme God of the Demigod Fall is at the same level as the Supreme God in the Primordial God Realm, Su Ping had no idea.

Regardless, Joanna's true form is at least a Star-level being, and may even surpass that level.

After taking a deep look at the giant peak with the severed finger, Su Ping calmed down. Thinking about these things was useless at the moment. Whether the giant peak was a severed finger or not was not of great concern to him. Finding Su Lingyue was the most important thing at the moment, and the second was to plug up the hole he had punched in the top of the giant peak.

Whoosh!

Su Ping changed direction and flew towards the crowd in front of the Dragon Martial Tower.

……

"There's someone there."

Among the crowd, some perceptive students noticed Su Ping rapidly descending from the sky and immediately called out.

Everyone else looked on in surprise.

Soon, when they saw Su Ping's appearance clearly, all the students stared wide-eyed, their faces showing as if they had seen a ghost.

The first thing that comes to many people's minds is twins?

They look so alike, both in their outfits and their appearances!

"Boss Su?"

Han Yuxiang had noticed Su Ping long ago. After her initial surprise, she immediately went to greet him and couldn't help but ask, "Weren't you inside the Dragon Martial Tower? How come you're here...?"

"I came out from the top," Su Ping said after landing.

Pei Tianyi, who was in the distance, stared blankly at Su Ping. When she heard Su Ping's voice, her pupils shrank slightly. If they looked alike, they could be twins, but the voice and aura were exactly the same. It was too terrifying!

The Dragon Martial Tower has only one entrance and exit, a fact known to all students.

Everyone watched as Su Ping entered the Dragon Martial Tower, and now he's suddenly descending from the sky—this is utterly illogical!

"From the top..."

Han Yuxiang couldn't help but look up, but realized how stupid she was to actually believe Su Ping's words.

If it really came out from the top, does that mean Su Ping broke through the Dragon Martial Tower?

It's important to know that the legend of the Dragon Martial Tower having thirty-three levels is just that—a legend—and has not been verified.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that the Dragon Martial Tower has twenty-two floors, which was recorded by the strongest genius who left the first record in the True Martial Academy.

None of the others managed to reach a level beyond the 22nd floor.

After all, the Dragon Tower has those peculiar restrictions; anyone over 24 years old is absolutely prohibited from entering, and even legends wouldn't believe it.

Indeed, there are legendary figures who have visited Zhenwu Academy, but none of them were able to enter the Dragon Martial Tower.

Moreover, there are more than just one or two legends who have done this, so Zhenwu Academy has reason to conclude that even legends cannot break this rule!

As for why it is said to have thirty-three floors?

This is estimated from the outside based on the height of each floor.

Han Yuxiang remembered that the strongest genius in the Zhenwu Academy in a thousand years who entered the twenty-second floor had been awarded the title of Peerless Rebellious King, and also had records of slaying legendary and king beasts!

If he hadn't later wandered around Blue Star and encountered the good and evil among the Four Heavenly Kings, resulting in his demise, his achievements would have been terrifyingly high, and he might even have become the master of the Peak Tower, the legendary king!

"Boss Su, there's only one exit to the Dragon Martial Tower. Did you... really go in just now?" Han Yuxiang couldn't help but ask. He did see Su Ping at the top, but guessed that Su Ping might have been there before, and the one who went in earlier might have been an illusion caused by some kind of secret technique.

After all, compared to this, it would be even more outrageous to ask him to admit that Su Ping had unlocked the Dragon Martial Tower!

Su Ping glanced at him, too lazy to say anything more.

"Judging from your expression, you don't seem to know much about the things inside the Dragon Martial Tower. Call the dean of your True Martial Academy; I have something to say to him. Also, the young man who led me here earlier said that my sister left the Dragon Martial Tower and then disappeared. Doesn't your academy have any surveillance cameras anywhere?"

"Call him the dean?"

Han Yuxiang was stunned, somewhat confused.

Mo Fengping's expression changed slightly. The dean was the true guardian of the True Martial Academy, a legendary expert, and an object of reverence for all students, including their instructors.

Su Ping's attitude, his arrogant call for the dean to come over, was extremely unpleasant to him. Although he admitted that Su Ping was very strong, how could he compare to a legend?

"What are you talking about?"

In the distance, Pei Tianyi walked over, his face cold. "How dare you see the Dean? Since you've entered the Dragon Martial Tower, you're practically my peer. Hmph, I wonder what tricks you played just now. Regardless, since we're peers, my declaration of war against you isn't considered bullying!"

Su Ping glanced at him. "Declare war? You're not worthy."

"Are you scared?" Pei Tianyi narrowed his eyes, revealing a strong killing intent.

A cold glint flashed in Su Ping's eyes, revealing murderous intent towards him; he was courting death.

Just as he was about to make his move, a figure suddenly rushed over in a panic. It was the boy who had led Su Ping earlier. When he saw that Su Ping was actually standing outside the tower, he stopped halfway through his run and stood there stunned.

"This, this..."

The boy was somewhat bewildered.

He clearly ran out of the tower. If Su Ping wanted to come out, he would have come out behind him. How could he have come out in front of him?

Did he really just go in?

The boy's mind was a little slow to process it.

Upon seeing the young man, Han Yuxiang, remembering Su Ping's strange behavior, immediately pulled him close from a distance and said, "What's wrong with you? Didn't I just tell you to lead the way for Mr. Su? Where did you go?"

The boy stared blankly at Su Ping's face for a long while. Only after hearing Han Yuxiang's reprimand did he react and say in a trembling voice, "Vice-Vice Dean, I did lead Mr. Su in just now, and Mr. Su also chose to take on the challenge, but, but I don't know why he's here..."

"Nonsense! You say Mr. Su made the challenge, but what about his challenge record?" Han Yuxiang said angrily.

The boy seemed to have been enlightened, his eyes filled with even greater fear. He looked at Su Ping as if he were a demon, and said, "I do have a record of it. I've already written it down, and it's right here."

He held up the bronze book in his hand, which had previously recorded Pei Tianyi's challenge records.

Seeing his expression, Han Yuxiang asked suspiciously, "What record?"

The boy quickly grabbed the bronze book, ran to the giant black monument next to him, and inserted the bronze book into the groove below.

As the bronze book was embedded, the black giant stele seemed to be activated, and golden light emerged from its bottom. The next moment, the golden light rapidly climbed upwards and quickly reached the first position.

And this is Pei Tianyi's name.

The next moment, golden light rose up, opening another column above Pei Tianyi and pushing Pei Tianyi to second place.

A new name emerged there.

Mr. Su.

The number following this name is thirty-three.

The entire room fell silent.

The previously somewhat agitated crowd instantly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone stared blankly at the name gleaming with gold and the exaggerated numbers behind it.

Pei Tianyi was also stunned, her expression somewhat blank.

Thirty-three floors?

Doesn't that mean we've cleared the game?!

This record surpasses even the most talented student in the history of Zhenwu Academy by a full eleven levels!

The difference is almost like a joke.

Han Yuxiang, Mo Fengping, Xu Kuang, and the others were also stunned and somewhat bewildered.

Su Ping glanced at it but didn't feel much. He didn't care about the rankings and records. Finding Su Lingyue was more important. Besides, he didn't care about these things that didn't bring him any real benefit. He was more happy to have another wealthy customer in his shop.

"It really is..."

The boy stared in disbelief beneath the massive black monument.

What the recording device showed was actually true!

"I told you to go and call your dean over, so hurry up and do it. Otherwise, if something serious happens, I won't be responsible," Su Ping said irritably, pulling Han Yuxiang out of her daze.

His patience was limited, and he was already anxious to find Su Lingyue, while also dealing with the mess he had made.

Han Yuxiang snapped out of her daze, staring blankly at Su Ping, and said, "Boss Su, you, you really came from the top?"

"Do you think I'd have money to scam you?"

"Well……"

Han Yuxiang was speechless. Money? Is this a vulgar phrase that someone of your status would use?

He dared not speak further, his mind churning. The shock of learning Su Ping's age was already strong enough, but now that he knew Su Ping had directly reached the thirty-third floor, he was even more bewildered.

However, thinking about the various things Su Ping had spread outside, he suddenly felt that he could accept it a little more.

However, he is now somewhat confused.

How can someone under 24 years old cultivate to this level?

This is no longer just genius, but monster-level, even extremely terrifying monster!

Even if he left Earth and was placed in the Interstellar Federation, he would still be considered a top-tier genius, right?

Thinking of this, Han Yuxiang looked at Su Ping with even greater awe. This was a powerful figure who would one day rise above Blue Star and roam the starry sky!

Many geniuses have emerged from Earth, some have perished, but many others have entered the broader interstellar federation and found better opportunities.

Shaking her head, Han Yuxiang stopped thinking about it and asked, "Why did you call the dean over?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Anyway, it's a big deal, concerning the life and death of your Zhenwu Academy, and even the survival of the entire Asian continent." Su Ping said bluntly when he saw how long-winded he was.

Han Yuxiang was stunned. Looking at Su Ping's indifferent expression, she felt that he was not joking, and she became more and more confused.

A matter concerning the survival of the Asian continent?

Su Ping came looking for his sister, so why did this news suddenly appear halfway through his search?

If you had brought this message with you earlier, you would have gone straight to the dean upon arrival.

He couldn't understand it, but seeing Su Ping's unfriendly expression and his impatience, he didn't dare to say anything more. He could only say, "The dean is always elusive, I don't know where he is either. I'll try to contact him first, and it would be best if I could get in touch with him..."

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."

"Um."

Han Yuxiang quickly took out his communicator and began contacting the dean.

Pei Tianyi, who was standing next to him, had already come to his senses and looked at Su Ping again, only to find that Su Ping hadn't even glanced at him, but was staring at a deserted spot, seemingly deep in thought.

His lips twitched slightly. As the most talented student in the Zhenwu Academy in the past hundred years, and the most watched and respected student of this year, his challenge was completely ignored!

"This guy..."

Pei Tianyi gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

He had never experienced this feeling of being ignored before.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been the most outstanding genius. From his family and school to the Zhenwu Academy, he has always been at the forefront!

At that moment, he suddenly thought of those students who had tried to challenge him in the past, but whose true nature he had seen through at a glance and ignored.

Could it be that, in the other person's eyes, he is also that kind of person?

Thinking of this, Pei Tianyi felt even more angry and humiliated.

While Pei Tianyi's expression was constantly changing, those around him were shocked by Su Ping's outrageous words.

Is this a matter of life and death for Zhenwu Academy and the Asian continent?

What a joke! This is a huge deal. How could this young man know about something like this?

Some people think Su Ping is being deliberately mysterious and exaggerating, while others are skeptical.

"Yes, um, um, that's right, it's that one..."

Han Yuxiang made contact, holding the communicator in both hands with a respectful attitude. He also erected a soundproof barrier around himself. Only after the other party finished speaking and hung up did he put the communicator down.

"Boss Su, the dean said he'll be here soon." Han Yuxiang dispelled the barrier and turned to Su Ping respectfully.

Su Ping nodded, then said, "I still haven't answered your question from earlier. My sister left the Dragon Martial Tower; she didn't disappear here. Didn't you find out the route she took?"
