Upon hearing this...

Tears welled up in Cai Yiyao's eyes instantly.

He reached out and grabbed Song Ping'an tightly as he was about to leave.

Song Ping'an looked at her, puzzled.

Cai Yiyao shook her head repeatedly, saying, "Don't be impulsive! You're only on the 200th floor now, how can you possibly go up to the 300th floor all at once?"

"At worst, it's just a life. Anyway, living like this won't bring peace to the family." Song Ping'an pulled his hand away from hers. "Don't worry, the benefits at Universal Love are very good. If I really die inside the tower, the compensation will be enough for you to live on for several years. Once you've raised your daughter, you'll be free."

"No! No!" Cai Yiyao cried out in panic, pulling Song Lele to hug her as well. "If you lose me and Nannan, we really can't live!"

Song Ping'an didn't argue with her anymore. He squatted down and said to his daughter, "Lele, be a good girl and wait for Daddy at home. I'll buy you your favorite chocolate next weekend."

Song Lele cried so hard she almost passed out.

She kept sobbing and unable to speak.

Having made up his mind, Song Ping'an gritted his teeth, broke free from their pull, opened the door, and walked outside.

The mother and daughter behind him were crying uncontrollably.

Just then...

Song Ping'an's cell phone rang in his pocket.

He took out his phone and answered the call.

A voice came from the other end. "Song Ping'an? This is Wang Wen."

Song Ping'an stood at attention reflexively and stammered, "Teacher, Teacher Wang!"

Wang Wen: "Are you asleep? If not, come to World Tower Plaza, get ready to go with the tower."

Song Ping'an stammered, "No, no! Okay, okay!"

The call ended.

He turned around blankly.

Behind him, the mother and daughter stared blankly at him, tears and snot streaming down their faces.

Cai Yiyao spoke first, asking, "Whose call was it? What did they say?"

Song Ping'an stared blankly at his phone, saying, "It's a call from the Academy. Teacher Wang said he's going to take me into the tower..."

Cai Yiyao rolled her eyes.

She screamed.

She stood up and pushed him. "I always thought you were eliminated by the Resource Team for failing your mission and were just stuck with a nominal position at the Academy! I never imagined you were actually chosen by Wang Wen?! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and seize the opportunity to please him! Even a little bit of what he gives you is enough for us to enjoy for a lifetime!"

As Song Ping'an walked, he muttered, "I don't know how to flatter. I'll just do whatever people tell me to do."

"Okay, okay!" Cai Yiyao was overjoyed and had no intention of arguing. Leaning against the door, she called out, "Be careful... honey."

Song Ping'an paused in his steps.

He waved casually, didn't look back, and quickly ran down the stairs and disappeared.

At World Tower Plaza.

Wang Wen found the personnel to work on the tower according to the shift schedule.

Aside from the skinny boy and He Jiong, the two people brought into the tower this time were honest individuals selected from the Resource Team last time.

Their abilities may be average, but their character is excellent.

Wang Wen isn't afraid of lacking ability, she's afraid of lacking character.

With his current strength, he can easily lead people into the tower to reach 500 or even 600, and if he doesn't care about energy consumption, reaching 700 wouldn't be too difficult.

So, if someone lacks ability, they can be trained.

If someone's character is flawed, there's no going back.

The thirty people from this Resource Team are not as trustworthy as the core members of my own team, but they are at least much better than ordinary people.

Once Song Ping'an and another taciturn young man arrived.

Wang Wen and her team entered the tower.

He only spent four days in the Insect Chamber this week.

On the one hand, life was really inconvenient without Zhu Xingguo. After five days of eating and drinking, there was nowhere to put their excrement. Even though they had thrown it deep into the insect wall, the stench was getting stronger and stronger.

Later, Wang Wen even went so far as to clean the Insect Chamber hall with a vow.

On the other hand, he was also too exhausted.

If one person keeps racking up Point, this model won't last long.

Let alone everyone reaching level 10, based on the current situation, he might not even be able to reach level 10 for the first time.

The person is almost depressed.

The willpower to maintain mental focus for extended periods without any fluctuations or ups and downs, repeating the same monotonous actions, is something that even lifetimes of cultivation would not be enough to sustain.

Wang Wen experienced hardships far exceeding her expectations.

He decided to change the pace for the rest of the time.

Climb a tower to relax and clear your mind.

After all, apart from He Jiong, the rest of the team consisted entirely of newcomers below level 300.

I haven't received the first-time login reward for floors above 300 yet.

Especially for a skinny little boy like him who gets dizzy every time, Wang Wen felt it was necessary to strengthen his body.

And a first-time reward for reaching the 500th floor.

Watching the team members perform new and amazing skills can be a good way to relieve fatigue.

In any case, apart from He Jiong, the character of everyone else on this team is guaranteed.

If all else fails, we He Jiong kick He Jiong out after we reach the 300th floor. He's just a lowly errand boy, he won't dare say much, hehe.

Wang Wen, who was nearly driven mad by the Insect Chamber, thought to herself with this wicked amusement.

that's all.

I waited for two more days in the Insect Chamber until the height of the insect wall was restored to normal, preventing insects from falling to their deaths and giving Point.

Wang Wen controlled the number of insects until they were large enough, then grabbed a few and used her giant energy hand to pry open their mouths, leading the whole team into the insects' bellies.

The four people behaved differently during the process.

The skinny little boy trusted Wang Wen implicitly and was mentally prepared; he was the first to crawl into the sticky worm's mouth.

He Jiong, on the other hand, looked like he was going to his death, closing his eyes and charging forward, almost bursting out from behind the insects.

Song Ping'an remained silent, doing whatever Wang Wen asked him to do, executing orders meticulously.

The last member of the Resource Team hesitated for a moment, recalling Wang Wen's earth-shattering abilities from the previous four days, then relaxed and bent down to walk into the insect's mouth.

Overwhelming strength is a source of fear for adversaries.

But for those who depend on it, it provides a sense of security.

Wang Wen's abilities convinced the Resource Team members that even seemingly absurd things like voluntarily entering an insect's mouth must have some basis in reason.

After all four answered that they were already inside the portal, Wang Wen finally entered the insect's belly.

The moment he stepped into the entrance, everyone was enveloped in white light.

[Floor 20, Cleared]

This is how to clear the Insect Chamber.

In other words, Wang Wen and her team eventually found a way to break this new type of withdrawal system.

From now on, the Insect Chamber will become a checkpoint that tests hard skills, just like the Four Squares Formation, rather than a level that discourages people from leaving.

The rest of the time.

This includes the 10 hours that would have been wasted on the 99th floor.

It took about 14 hours in total.

It was a little after 1 p. m. on Sunday afternoon.

The group had already reached the ground of the 300th floor.

Let alone those who have never been to the 300th floor.

Even He Jiong had been to the 300th floor, still experienced some symptoms of epilepsy.

Other teams struggled to reach 300 meters through teamwork and hard work.

When it came to Wang Wen, spending three hundred was just a casual gesture.

He Jiong looked at Wang Wen, who was interacting with the aircraft, with admiration.

I just feel incredibly lucky to have hooked up with such a powerful boss!

I felt incredibly excited and thrilled.

But he didn't know.

Wang Wen actually deliberately stopped at the 300th floor to try and interact with the spacecraft.

On the surface, they put on an act as if they were using Point to exchange for the power of the world in preparation for strengthening themselves.

In his mind, he was thinking about how best to get rid of He Jiong.

After all, the character of the others has already been tested.

He Jiong is currently only positioned as a deliveryman.

Even though he has worked hard and performed quite well since entering the tower these past two weeks.

Wang Wen, however, was not entirely at ease with his character.

Wang Wen, pulling the aircraft, subtly glanced at He Jiong, who was discussing He Jiong with a thin boy not far away.
