Chapter 824 Sprint (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

The aptitude of battle pets can be detected by testing pillars. After some experiments, everyone finally confirmed that the steps are indeed related to aptitude!

The higher one's aptitude, the fewer and smaller the tribulations one will encounter. The worse one's aptitude, the more likely one is to be struck down as soon as one steps onto the steps. It's like going to your future mother-in-law's house to propose marriage; if you don't have the ability, you can forget about getting in the door!

"These days, even ancient immortals are so worldly-wise."

"Hey, this is the real deal!"

"I feel like I've been looked down upon by a step."

"Be bold, remove 'seems like'."

"So...they have the highest aptitude? You know what, these guys have all reached the Star Lord realm in less than a thousand years, putting them on par with us. Their aptitude is truly exceptional!"

"Yes, especially this one, 89 years old...tsk tsk, my great-great-granddaughter is older than that."

Although the test results revealed the cause of the lightning strikes on the steps, no one was happy.

Does being less qualified mean you have to be discriminated against?

If you're so capable, judge it by combat strength. Whoever is weakest will be eliminated. That way, at least everyone will have a chance to give it their all!

Some people disagreed, but couldn't bring themselves to say it, after all, it was a fact that their qualifications were inferior to others!

"Damn it, I know the reason, but how can I fix this? It's too late for me to improve my aptitude now!"

"Is this the only passage? How did those three powerful figures who were conferred the title of God get in? If we can find the way they went, perhaps we can find a shortcut."

"Don't even think about it. The methods of those who have reached the Godhood are beyond our comprehension. They probably tore through deep space to get in. The spaces they can enter are not ours."

"What do we do?"

The group exchanged bewildered glances. The steps were so real that even if they knew the reason, they could only feel angry.

"Based on qualifications?"

At that moment, a voice came from one of the battle alliances.

The two star lords inside looked at each other and saw a figure emerge from their small world. It was the purple-robed youth who had previously displayed great power and swept away many Star Realm cultivators.

He had been looking gloomy earlier. Being defeated by Su Ping and losing the Rule Dao Tree had made him extremely unhappy and even a little discouraged.

But now, he feels he has seen an opportunity.

Based on qualifications?

In this area, he really hasn't convinced many people.

The only ones who could convince him were the champions of previous Cosmic Genius Battles, or some exceptionally talented and powerful figures who had achieved godhood.

Some of the powerful figures who were enshrined as gods were geniuses from a young age, possessing top-tier divine battle bodies. They swept through everything in their path, becoming stronger when facing stronger opponents, and growing rapidly, just like a legend and myth.

He admired such a person.

But in his eyes, everyone else was just an ordinary person, not worth mentioning!

"Young Master Xinghe, are you going?"

One of the star lords was surprised to see him come out.

Another star lord quickly advised, "Young Master Xinghe, the lightning tribulation on these steps is no small matter; it contains complete Dao intent. Although you are very strong, there's really no need to take such a risk!"

"I can give it a try. You can come and get me anytime."

"That's what the young man in the purple robe said."

He wasn't blindly arrogant, after all, it was an ancient immortal abode with many strange features. Just the countless chaotic corpses lying in the void before him were indescribably eerie and sinister.

The two star lords were taken aback, exchanged a glance, and had no choice but to agree.

The other star lords also noticed the purple-robed youth. Although he was only a Heavenly Fate Realm cultivator, these star lords did not dare to underestimate him.

With just his cultivation at the Heavenly Fate Realm, he could command the respect of a Star Lord Realm giant. Such treatment would be something anyone else could boast about for a lifetime.

"This little guy... might be able to get things done."

"If we're really just looking at aptitude, this little guy might be able to reach around the fortieth step, or even further."

"That's right, this kid's talent is even more monstrous than ours. I wouldn't believe it if you told me he wasn't personally mentored by a God-level expert!"

"Of course. No matter how good your talent is, if you're in the deep mountains and forests with scarce resources, you won't be able to cultivate any special skills. Even the most powerful combat physique will starve to death if you don't feed it!"

Everyone else watched with curiosity, wondering how far this young man in purple robes could go.

The young leader of the alliance raised her eyebrows slightly and stared intently at the other party.

At this moment, the purple-robed youth had arrived at the steps. Suddenly, he turned his head and glanced at the alliance leader girl, then his gaze fell on the illusory floating small world beside her, or more precisely, on Su Ping within the small world.

"snort!"

The young man in purple robes gave a slight sneer, said nothing, and turned to step onto the stairs.

Su Ping raised an eyebrow. "Damn it, you're going up the steps, so why are you sneering at me? Are you having an epileptic seizure?"

Su Ping was also observing, deciding to let this guy be the guinea pig and see if the tribulation he attracted was at the Star Lord level or just at the Heavenly Fate level.

If the lightning tribulation on the steps truly varies from person to person, perhaps he could give it a try.

After all, such demanding requirements are difficult for most people to meet, but for others, they represent an opportunity!

Opportunities like these are rare and should not be missed!

At this moment, the young man in purple robes had already stepped onto the steps.

First step!

Everyone stared intently.

Nothing happened on the steps; not a single lightning bolt was seen, let alone a lightning tribulation.

Seeing this, the two star lords who were acting as guardians for the purple-robed youth breathed a sigh of relief, but they still dared not be careless and watched nervously.

The young man in purple robes raised an eyebrow, a slight smile curving his lips, and continued walking forward.

I didn't encounter any lightning tribulation on the first step, nor on the second and third steps.

They continued upwards, from the seventh and eighth steps... to the fifteenth and seventeenth... all the way up to the twenty-fifth step, without encountering any lightning tribulations!

The journey was smooth sailing; this is the first time such a situation has occurred!

Even a prodigy like the Alliance Leader girl encountered a lightning tribulation after the twenty-third step!

"snort!"

The young leader's face darkened, and she became somewhat annoyed.

Seeing her expression, the vice leader next to her immediately comforted her with a telepathic message: "Miss, you don't need to worry. When you were in the Heavenly Fate Realm, you were no less capable than this person. Aptitude is tested according to cultivation level. When this person reaches the Star Lord Realm like you, his aptitude in the Star Lord Realm may not be as strong."

"snort!"

The young leader responded with a cold snort, but her expression softened slightly.

At this moment, the purple-robed youth's first tribulation lightning appeared.

The lightning tribulation arose above the steps, without any dark clouds, as if it were brewing in the void, and suddenly crashed down as soon as it appeared.

The purple-robed youth had sensed it beforehand. He raised an eyebrow slightly, raised his hand, and threw a punch, directly shattering the lightning tribulation. This lightning tribulation was much weaker than the first lightning tribulation that many star lords had encountered before. It did not contain the Great Dao and was even weaker than the lightning tribulation of the Starry Sky Realm.

"It seems that this tribulation lightning is determined based on cultivation level."

"Goodness, if we calculate it that way, he might not be able to get through?"

Someone exclaimed, a mixture of shock, jealousy, and envy.

If there's a celestial abode behind the steps, then this guy is getting off too easy!

The other star lords also looked grim, feeling that the world was too unfair. Some were starving while others were drowning in abundance, and the more capable they were, the more they received. How were they supposed to live, and how could they compete with others?

On the steps, after repelling the first lightning tribulation, the young man in purple robes finally relaxed, a smile spreading across his face, somewhat excited.

Sure enough, the steps were built just for him.

Judging by qualifications?

Immortal, you have won my heart!

The young man in purple robes moved swiftly and quickly forward.

One after another, bolts of lightning appeared, but the purple-robed youth easily shattered them with a wave of his hand. It wasn't until after the thirty-fifth step that the power of the lightning increased by an order of magnitude, reaching the level of the Starry Sky Realm.

But for the young man in purple robes, this was still a piece of cake.

He can kill Starry Sky Realm cultivators even if he's above his level, so he can easily dispel this lightning tribulation with a wave of his hand.

He sprinted forward and quickly crossed the forty steps, breaking the previous record of the first star lord.

Immediately afterwards, he rushed forward and arrived at the fiftieth step!

At this moment, he has already reached the halfway point of the entire staircase!

Such rapid progress left many star lords watching from the outside breathless and somewhat anxious.

Seeing others win the prize made me a little uneasy!

boom!

Chains appeared in the purple-robed youth's hand, shattering a lightning tribulation containing terrifying power of rules, and then he continued forward.

The tribulation he encountered here had forced him to take it seriously.

After resting and consuming the divine fruit, his physical condition has basically recovered.

Soon, the purple-robed youth reached the sixtieth step. The power of the lightning tribulation here forced him to use his pet-beast fusion technique.

Before long, he reached the seventieth step, and the power of the lightning tribulation surged, enough to threaten even the top-tier Starry Sky Realm cultivators.

Without saying a word, he immediately summoned a golden talisman to block the lightning tribulation, and then continued forward.

As the purple-robed youth strode forward and walked up the steps, a figure suddenly appeared on the first step—it was Su Ping.

Seeing the treatment the purple-robed youth received, Su Ping felt relieved; he could overcome this obstacle as well!

After communicating with the leader of the alliance, the girl allowed him to leave the small world.

The alliance leader had previously witnessed Su Ping's extraordinary performance. Although Su Ping suppressed the purple-robed youth with his Starry Sky Realm cultivation, his methods and power were absolutely monstrous in the Starry Sky Realm.

With this kind of talent, one might be able to reach the depths of the steps, or even the very end of the steps, though that remains unknown!

"Come on, suppress that brat!" The girl leader cheered, pumping her fist in encouragement.

Upon hearing her words, the others noticed that Su Ping had also stepped onto the steps, and they were all surprised.

Su Ping didn't waste any words and quickly moved forward.

Whoosh!

His figure was like a wisp of smoke, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed up twenty or thirty steps!

Outside the steps, many star lords' eyes bulged out, almost popping out of their sockets.

This is like a race! Where's the lightning tribulation? Lightning tribulation, wake up! Are you dead?

Whoosh!

Su Ping charged straight ahead, taking large strides, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the fortieth step.

He hasn't encountered any lightning tribulations up to this point!

Some even suspected that Su Ping had moved too fast, and the lightning tribulation hadn't reacted in time.

That shouldn't be the case. You're undergoing a tribulation of lightning, how can you be so slow?

Su Ping walked briskly up the steps, somewhat surprised that he hadn't encountered any lightning tribulations after more than forty steps. It seemed that his aptitude was better than he had imagined.

Unfortunately, the system can only assess the aptitude of pets. Otherwise, Su Ping would like to see whether his aptitude is superior or exceptional.

If we were to assess his qualifications, we would definitely use the human race as a reference for comparison.

Unfortunately, he was unable to assess himself.

In the blink of an eye, Su Ping had already climbed fifty steps, crossing halfway!

At this moment, the purple-robed youth had already stepped onto the eighty steps. He heard the exclamation behind him, turned his head and glanced at the scene. His expression changed slightly as he saw Su Ping.

When he saw Su Ping appear here, his face was somewhat gloomy, but he was not too shocked. After all, he had acknowledged the strength that the other party had shown in the previous battle.

Given their qualifications, they might even be qualified to climb to the sixty or seventy steps.

"snort!"

The purple-robed youth snorted coldly, took out a golden talisman to defend himself, and stopped relying on himself to fight the lightning tribulation, as that would take too much time.

Seeing the purple-robed youth suddenly quicken his pace, Su Ping raised an eyebrow and immediately pushed off with both feet, sprinting forward.

Sixty, seventy, eighty!

In the blink of an eye, Su Ping caught up with the purple-robed youth!

At this moment, all the star lords outside the steps had their jaws nearly dropped.

Their eyes widened in disbelief, their faces filled with utter shock.

Is the tribulation lightning malfunctioning? Su Ping rushed all the way up to the eighty steps and it still didn't trigger?!

Even the first lightning tribulation didn't descend?!

Whoosh!

In the instant they passed each other, the purple-robed youth felt a gust of wind beside him. When he saw Su Ping's figure effortlessly passing by, his originally cold and resolute face instantly cracked.

"Hurry up!" Su Ping turned his head and chuckled.

After saying that, he dashed out as if his feet were greased, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the ninety steps.

With the immortal abode right before him, Su Ping also thought about the issue of inheritance. Naturally, he didn't hesitate and immediately sprinted forward, quickly completing the hundred steps.

As I stepped onto the hundredth step, a lightning tribulation surged in the void, but it dissipated as soon as it began to form.

Because Su Ping, who was on the steps, had already come down.

"..."

The purple-robed youth, who was standing on the eighty-five steps, had a somewhat dazed expression.

The steps crashed down, and several golden talismans flew out from his body, blocking the lightning tribulation and dissipating.

The lightning dissipated, leaving his head gleaming, but the purple-robed youth felt a chill in his heart.

He walked for ages, but Su Ping just jogged and easily overtook him!

"What the hell?! You're only at the Starry Sky Realm, and you can't even handle a Star Lord. How come you think you can surpass me in terms of talent?! How come?!"

The young man in the purple robe was on the verge of a mental breakdown, his mind completely shattered.

He felt that if he were to reach the Starry Sky Realm, he could at least put up a fight against the Star Lord. Although he might not be able to win, he would not be someone to be trifled with.

But Su Ping, a guy hiding in the Star Lord's small world, actually surpassed him in aptitude?!

"Could it be that the tribulation lightning failed?"

Outside the steps, a star lord, filled with surprise and doubt, stepped onto the steps.

He hadn't gone down more than a few floors when he encountered a lightning tribulation. He repelled it and retreated somewhat speechlessly.

The lightning tribulation didn't fail, that's too strange. Could it be that Su Ping has some kind of supreme treasure that can ward off lightning? But that's impossible, I've never heard of such a treasure!

Was it merely based on aptitude? They reached the end and only encountered the first tribulation lightning, which ended before it was fully prepared, preventing them from discerning its power.

"If it really comes down to talent, this guy... probably had some hidden strength behind him!"

"Hiding? So, he could easily defeat that little guy before, but he just kept playing with him?"

"While I don't know what kind of aptitude it takes to directly reach the end, at least... he should be able to challenge opponents of higher levels, right? This guy might have strength comparable to ours!"

"Holy crap, this guy's a real wolf in sheep's clothing!"

The star lords looked at each other in disbelief, all feeling shocked.

How can someone at the Starry Sky Realm be comparable to a Star Lord?

If it weren't for the steps revealing his talent, probably no one would have guessed that this guy had been hiding something all along!

"This guy..."

The young girl who led the alliance was also startled and somewhat bewildered.

Although she was proud, she knew that with her own abilities, she could never have climbed the ancient steps as easily as Su Ping; his abilities were simply extraordinary.

"Really?! Brother Baitian didn't even trigger the tribulation lightning!"

"It did trigger one, but before it could take shape, the other person ran away."

"Brother Baitian, this is too outrageous! No wonder you dare to use such a name, Baitian!"

"Tsk tsk, only our alliance leader can surpass Brother Baitian, he's too strong!"

The members of the Star Sea Alliance were all shocked and discussed it among themselves.
