100: Chapter 10 Unstoppable Momentum

"The tower behind me is your goal for this trip—the Secret Realm Tower."

He introduced, "On normal days, other students need to pay a fee of 1 academic credit to enter the tower once."

"However, as members of the Key Class."

"During the special training period, you have the authority for unlimited free entries."

"I hope you can cherish this opportunity."

"Work hard to improve yourselves and do not fall short of the school's expectations and investment in you."

Jiang Mo briefly explained some basic precautions for entering the tower.

For instance, being injured inside the tower would result in an automatic teleportation out, and every attempt would leave a record, and so on.

Just as he was preparing to turn and leave to let the students explore on their own.

He seemed to remember something and stopped his footsteps.

He turned back to add a sentence, his tone carrying a hint of encouragement and mystery:

"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you."

"If you Classmates have enough confidence in your own strength."

"You can try your best to charge at the tenth floor while in the First Grade Martial Artist realm."

Looking at the curious gazes of the students, he smiled: "If you can succeed in the challenge, perhaps... there will be some unexpected 'little rewards.'"

After saying those meaningful words, Jiang Mo's figure seemed to melt into the air.

It slowly faded, finally disappearing completely before everyone's eyes.

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their faces showing expressions of contemplation and confusion.

They didn't understand what the mysterious Instructor Jiang Mo meant by "little rewards."

Since they couldn't figure it out, they stopped thinking about it.

Practice brings true knowledge!

With hearts eager to try, everyone walked to the bronze gate of the Secret Realm Tower, which was engraved with countless profound patterns.

Just as everyone was researching how to enter, the Secret Realm Tower seemed to sense their presence.

The ancient patterns on the tower's surface suddenly lit up with a soft glow, flickering once like a breath.

In the next moment, an invisible wave swept across all the Key Class students present.

Swish!

Everyone's figures vanished from the spot instantly.

As if they had been silently swallowed by that ancient giant tower.

In the distance, inside an observation tower.

Instructor Lin Jian and Fang Yan stood side by side, taking in everything that had just happened.

"Old Jian, do you think in this batch, besides that little monster Xiao Wangshu."

"Is there anyone else who can clear the tenth floor while in the first grade realm?"

Fang Yan stroked his empty left sleeve and asked with great interest.

Instructor Lin Jian's gaze was sharp as he stared in the direction of the Secret Realm Tower, slowly shaking his head with a certain tone: "Impossible."

"Oh? That kid Lu Qingfeng is your personal disciple; you don't hold any hope for him?"

Fang Yan raised an eyebrow.

"Precisely because he is my disciple, I know him inside and out, which is why I am so certain."

The two were silent for a moment, their gazes focused on that silent giant tower.

"I wonder... if any student in this batch can obtain this tower's recognition?"

Fang Yan's voice carried a hint of distance and expectation.

"Difficult, as difficult as ascending to the blue heavens..."

Instructor Lin Jian shook his head gently, his gaze deep.

"Since the Old Principal brought it back, how many brilliant geniuses have tried?"

"But it remains silent to this day."

"Perhaps it is waiting for a 'Fated Person' who truly belongs to it."

"..."

Qin Yan only felt his vision blur, and a slight sense of dizziness instantly hit him.

When he regained his composure and looked closely.

He found himself in a completely unfamiliar environment.

The Classmates who had entered the tower with him had all disappeared.

The surroundings became exceptionally quiet, leaving only his own slightly hurried breathing.

This was a square space about half the size of a basketball court.

The surrounding walls and the ground beneath his feet.

All presented a milky-white luster, with no visible doors, windows, or seams.

The entire interior space was permeated with an ancient and vast aura.

The air seemed to be somewhat thicker than the outside world.

The source of light was unknown, making it impossible to distinguish specific directions.

"Is this the interior space of the Secret Realm Tower? It truly is miraculous, as if it were its own world."

Qin Yan quickly adjusted his breathing.

He gripped the long spear in his hand, warily surveying this strange space.

Just then, in the center of the space.

Countless milky-white light spots, as if drawn by an invisible force, rapidly converged from the void.

These light spots danced and swirled in the air.

Finally, they condensed into a white humanoid outline about the height of an adult, composed entirely of pure energy.

This White Figure had blurred facial features, with no specific facial characteristics.

But its limbs were complete, and its form was solid.

The blood-qi fluctuations emanating from its body reached the level of the early first grade.

As soon as the White Figure formed, without any pause or hesitation.

Its feet slammed against the ground, and its figure charged toward Qin Yan like an arrow leaving a bow!

Its right fist was clenched tight, carrying a gust of wind that wasn't powerful but was very pure, punching straight at Qin Yan's face!

Qin Yan sidestepped to easily avoid this somewhat rigid attack.

At the same time, the long spear in his hand struck second but arrived first, accurately piercing the White Figure's chest!

The White Figure had no time to make any reaction before its body was pierced by the spear.

It instantly collapsed.

It turned back into refined white energy light spots, scattering in the air and slowly disappearing.

The whole process was clean and efficient, taking less than three seconds.

"First floor, passed."

A cold and emotionless prompt sounded from nowhere, echoing within the space.

Immediately after, Qin Yan's body was enveloped by a layer of soft white light.

He was not panicked, knowing that this was the sign of a successful clearance and that he was about to be teleported to the next floor.

With a flash of light, his figure disappeared from the first floor space.

The spatial layout of the second floor was no different from the first.

Similarly, a White Figure condensed in the center of the space.

Its aura was still early first grade, but it was stronger than the one on the first floor.

"Its strength is roughly equivalent to a martial artist who has completed Skin Tempering twice."

Qin Yan instantly made a judgment.

He did not waste time, delivering another clean and efficient spear strike, directly defeating the guardian of the second floor.

"Looking at it this way, the strength of the third floor's guardian should correspond to a Mid First Rank martial artist who has completed Skin Tempering three times."

Qin Yan speculated in his heart.

Sure enough, after stepping into the third floor.

The aura of the appearing White Figure was significantly heavier, exactly at the level of a Mid First Rank martial artist.

Having verified his hypothesis, Qin Yan had a clearer understanding of the Secret Realm Tower's rules.

He stopped wasting time and faced the puppet on the third floor.

He again thrust out a simple and efficient spear strike, the tip accurately hitting the energy core, clearing the floor easily.

Following that, Qin Yan went all the way like a hot knife through butter!

The fourth floor, fifth floor, sixth floor... the strength of the guarding White Figures improved steadily.

From four, five, to six times of Skin Tempering.

But facing Qin Yan, who had already completed Skin Tempering six times and mastered Third Stage intermediate Spear Technique skills.

They still did not pose much of a threat and were quickly defeated one after another by his sharp Spear Techniques.
