The seventh level of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge was in the starry sky.
At the far end floated a small meteorite, several kilometers in diameter. A voice came from within it: "Choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, or Illusionist. Choose one and defeat them to pass the seventh level."
"Warrior." Yin Congyang felt a flicker of anticipation. He wondered what kind of surprise his opponent on this level would have in store for him.
A stone sprouted from the floating meteorite, twisted and warped in midair, and instantly transformed into a warrior wearing a red starry battle suit and a black mask.
"Your Highness, Yin Congyang, you passed six levels on your first attempt at the Heaven-Reaching Bridge. That's truly astonishing." The warrior in the red battle suit spoke in a hoarse, weighty voice. "In the past thousand or so eras, only a handful of those who spent a century comprehending the Laws in Chaos City managed to pass the sixth level. Every one of them was a peerless genius. You can now be considered one of the very best... But every three levels of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge mark a major leap in difficulty. I'm far stronger than the guardian of the sixth level, and I have a few other tricks up my sleeve. Be careful..."
"Thank you for your kind words, senior." Yin Congyang smiled. "Please, come at me with everything you've got!"
The warrior in the red battle suit swept his long blade forward and appeared before Yin Congyang as if teleporting. He thrust, the tip of his blade piercing the air as ripples appeared and vanished.
Yin Congyang calmly stepped back and angled his axe to deflect the incoming blade. Then he launched into his axe techniques, incorporating what he had learned from his fight against the sixth-level opponent
