Surpass
Shortly after Yang Wu entered the Trial Tower, a bald 'monk' dressed in white robes appeared in front of the tower. He was none other than the world's second strongest, the Hall Master the Thunder Dojo Hall, Thunder God.
"Brother Hong, you just said someone has comprehended a domain?" Thunder God shouted at Hong as soon as he appeared, "Really? Who is it?"
"One of the War God under my command at the Extreme Martial Arts Hall!" Hong said calmly.
"Apprentice Level?" Thunder God's eyes widened. "That's impossible!"
Both Hong and Thunder God have received numerous inheritances from the universe, so Thunder God knows very well what a domain means.
If someone were to comprehend a domain at the Planetary Level, like Hong, they could be considered invincible at that Planetary Level. Even in the vast universe, such a person would definitely be considered a genius.
To grasp a domain at the Apprentice Level? Are you kidding me?
Hong smiled and slowly said, "You remember Yang Wu, the one who defeated 'Demon Drinking Blade' in the Wilderness Area a few months ago, right?"
"I still remember!" Thunder God nodded and said, "I even sent a Planetary Level there back then, but I didn't expect you to beat me to it, Brother Hong."
"Wait a minute, Brother Hong." Thunder God suddenly realized something and looked at the man in black, Hong, with a shocked expression. "Why did you suddenly bring up this War God? The person you mentioned who comprehended the domain, could it be him?"
"It is indeed Yang Wu!" Hong nodded and said.
"That's impossible!"
Thunder God's voice suddenly grew much louder. "How could an Apprentice Level possibly comprehend a domain?"
"Besides, I followed his progress when he was challenging the Trial Tower. He only made it to the fourth level, which is not bad, but he's still a long way from reaching the Domain Realm!"
"I find it unbelievable too! That's why I brought him to challenge this Trial Tower!"
Hong calmly said, "Let's see how far he can go!"
Although Hong had sensed Yang Wu's domain before, Yang Wu's domain could not be released externally, so Hong was not entirely sure. That's why he brought Yang Wu to challenge the Trial Tower.
Meanwhile, Yang Wu had already begun his trials in the Trial Tower.
Yang Wu's original Trial Tower level was 4.3, so when Yang Wu appeared, he was on the fourth floor of the Trial Tower.
In the boundless grasslands.
"Yang Wu." The electronic voice echoed across the grassland, "You have completed the fourth level, stage A trial. The next step is stage B trial. The objective is to kill the 100 Advanced Beast General Level Mangniu are besieging you within 30 minutes."
One minute later, a mighty herd of 100 Mangniu appeared on the grassland.
In fact, the assessment on the fourth floor of the Trial Tower is similar to that on the first floor, except that the strength of the monsters has been upgraded from novice beast generals to advanced beast generals.
Previously, Yang Wu had been trampled to death by these 100 Advanced Beast General Level Mangniu.
But now, Yang Wu's level of skill and power are several times higher than before, so Yang Wu easily completed the fourth level of the test.
On the fifth floor of the Trial Tower, the monster reverted to the same Iron-Armored Scorpion as on the second floor. Although it was much more troublesome, it still posed no challenge to Yang Wu.
Forty-five minutes later, Yang Wu successfully appeared on the sixth floor of the Trial Tower.
At this moment, Yang Wu's Trial Tower level, displayed on the stone pillar outside, also changed to 6.0.
"He actually made it to the sixth level!" Thunder God exclaimed in disbelief.
It's important to know that before Yang Wu, only Hong had ever reached the sixth level in the entire world.
Thunder God is quite powerful, but he was helpless against the 200 Iron-Armored Scorpion in the fifth level, C stage of the Trial Tower.
Although he could easily kill one Iron-Armored Scorpion after another, his skill level was still too low when facing a swarm of scorpions.
"It seems Yang Wu has truly grasped the essence of the domain!" Hong exclaimed from the side.
Thunder God was already on the verge of comprehending the domain, but he was still stuck on the fifth level. If Yang Wu hadn't comprehended the domain, he would never have been able to break through to the sixth level.
"Brother Hong!"
Thunder God accepted Yang Wu's comprehension of the Dao Domain quite quickly, and couldn't help but tease him, "I think Yang Wu passed the fifth level faster than you. Aren't you afraid his level will surpass yours?"
"What am I afraid of?" Hong said calmly. "The more powerful people there are on Earth, the less pressure we will feel. This Yang Wu is only in his early twenties and he has already comprehended a domain. His talent is probably even greater than ours. We need to find a way to help him!"
Thunder God nodded seriously beside him.
The exchange between Hong and Thunder God did not affect Yang Wu in the Trial Tower, who continued to climb upwards.
On the sixth floor of the Trial Tower, the monster that appeared was Advanced Beast General Level flying monster, the Golden Vulture, which was far more terrifying than any beast-type monster.
Eight minutes later, Yang Wu passed the sixth level, stage A, and his Trial Tower level reached 6.3.
22 minutes later, Yang Wu passed the sixth level B stage, and his Trial Tower level reached 6.6.
Outside the Trial Tower.
"Brother Hong, this kid has really caught up with you!" Thunder God said with a smile. "Do you think he can pass Phase C?"
"I don't know either!" Hong said calmly, "In Phase C, ten Primary Lord Level Golden Vulture will appear. Once they grab you and lift you into the air, you'll have nowhere to get a foothold and will surely die when facing the monster horde!"
Inside the Trial Space.
Led by ten Lord Level leaders, countless Golden Vulture swooped down from mid-air toward Yang Wu.
Yang Wu brandished his Pojun Spear repeatedly, its mournful cries echoing through the sky, causing Golden Vulture to plummet one after another.
"Gah~~" A piercing scream rang out.
A Lord Level Golden Vulture seized the opportunity and its sharp claws reached out to grab Yang Wu from behind.
Boom!
As if he could see what was behind him, Yang Wu swung his Pojun Spear backward sharply, piercing Golden Vulture's head.
43 minutes later, the sixth floor was completely cleared, and Yang Wu's Trial Tower level became 7.0.
In front of the Trial Tower gate.
Thunder God had stopped speaking, staring wide-eyed at the black stone pillar as if he wanted to devour it.
Although he had joked with Hong before that Yang Wu's Trial Tower level could surpass Hong's, he never thought it would actually be like that.
In Thunder God's eyes, Hong's record was already the pinnacle of Planetary Level.
Unexpectedly, this record was broken by a mere Apprentice Level martial artist.
"Brother Hong." After the initial shock, Thunder God asked, "How did you fail back in the Trial Tower?"
Upon hearing Thunder God's question, Hong began to recall his battle in the Trial Space: "The sixth level, C stage, the Lord Level Golden Vulture were stronger than my burst of power, and they were all flying in mid-air. Although my realm was extremely high, it was still difficult for me to hit their vital points. If I hit ordinary body parts, my power was insufficient to cause any effective damage."
"A prolonged defense will inevitably lead to defeat. If we drag this out for too long, the Golden Vulture will eventually find a weakness, snatch us up into the air, and we will fail!"
In fact, when faced with an attack from a horde of beasts, the best option is to use your domain.
In reality, if Hong were to unleash his domain, ordinary Lord-level Monster wouldn't even be able to struggle.
Unfortunately, everyone in the Trial Space only possesses the physical attributes of Primary War General Level, making it impossible to unleash their domain. Hong's power exertion was relatively low, so being trapped on the sixth level was understandable.
Yang Wu, however, was different. His power reached an astonishing 15 times. Even with only the physical qualities of Primary War General Level, he could unleash the power of Intermediate War God Level. Against Primary Lord Level Golden Vulture, he could naturally kill it with a single blow.
"Brother Hong!" Thunder God analyzed, "Yang Wu was able to pass the sixth level smoothly, so his physical strength must be very high, maybe even more than ten times!"
Hong nodded.
With their exceptional insight, the two of them could naturally guess why Yang Wu had cleared the sixth level.
"Yang Wu is very talented. We should help him so that he can grow up as soon as possible!" Hong said calmly, but his voice was very firm.
"Yes, who knows, our Earth might be discovered by cosmic forces sometime!" Thunder God exclaimed.
Ultimately, Yang Wu stopped at stage C of the seventh floor, with Trial Tower level of 7.6.
