Another Record Broken: Su Zhan Is Going to Challenge the Cycle Tower

Alien Race.

Su Zhan had vaguely heard of the existence of Alien Race before, but he hadn't paid much attention to it... After all, this world was full of wonders, and he barely knew enough about Human Race, let alone Alien Race.

Furthermore, external networks generally censor information about Alien Race to the point of almost prohibiting public discussion, so Su Zhan could be said to know absolutely nothing about Alien Race.

"It's normal that you haven't heard of the existence of Alien Race since you come from a small town."

Tantai Lingyun noticed Su Zhan's confusion and said softly, "Why does the Human Race invest so much effort in cultivating geniuses and strong individuals?"

Why would ferocious beasts, who were seemingly at peace, suddenly launch Fierce Beast Tide, slaughtering Human Race like madmen and razing Human Race cities to the ground?

"The reason is simple: they're from Alien Race."

"The battle between our Human Race and the Alien Race has continued since the beginning of our existence, but neither has been able to defeat the other... In order to prevent our Human Race from rising, the Alien Race have tried every means to slaughter our Human Race's top geniuses. The higher the Aptitude, the more ruthless their assassination efforts will be."

"If nothing unexpected happens, you've already been targeted by the Alien Race. It won't be long before you experience firsthand how pervasive Alien Race Assassination can be... Like I said, if you can't handle it yourself, you can ask for my help. Of course, there's a price to pay."

Su Zhan suddenly realized.

It turns out that ferocious beasts are not the formidable enemies of human Martial Artist... it is the Alien Race!

"Are the Alien Race trying to assassinate me again?"

"This plot... it feels so familiar."

At this moment, a commotion arose again from the crowd.

"Holy crap, are you kidding me? The record's been broken again?!"

"Holy crap!! The 96th floor?! Are we witnessing history?!"

"Wow~~ 29 years, 5 months, and 4 days, almost exceeded the time limit... How did this even work?"

"It's that freak 'Lightning Blade Martial General' again! This guy dominated the rankings for three whole years, staying at 95th Floor for all three years. I never expected him to actually break through to level 96 today!"

"Sigh, we Yanhuang finally managed to reach the summit once, and we were taken down in less than ten minutes... The monstrous nature of the Bai Ou Freedom Association is truly disheartening."

"In the past, if someone was knocked down from the 95th Floor, there was something to say, but this time someone skipped one floor and reached the top, a complete and utter victory, there's no comparison!"

"Fortunately, it's not just us Yanhuang; the geniuses from other Giant Battle, Carved Shadow, and Silver Eagle are all suffering the same way."

"We can still try to catch up on the 95th Floor, but how can we possibly catch up on the 96th floor?"

"..."

Some people in the crowd sighed, some wailed, some were heartbroken, and some were disheartened... The once lively, excited, and jubilant mood turned into one of deep depression in the blink of an eye.

Many students couldn't take the blow and chose to leave the Internal Network on the spot, disappearing without a trace.

In an instant, the once packed square gradually became empty.

"That guy Lei Ren, shouldn't be this strong... Could the rumors be true?"

Even Tantai Lingyun couldn't help but frown.

"29 years, 5 months, and 4 days... By the way, Tantai Lingyun, what did you mean by one hour outside and one day inside?"

Su Zhan didn't feel much, and instead returned to the Cycle Tower.

"The Cycle Tower, as the name suggests, will reset everything about you to zero once you enter!" Tantai Lingyun explained. "In Reincarnation, your Talent Aptitude, aptitude, bloodline, genes, and everything else will be exactly the same as everyone else's, belonging to the most mediocre category. The only difference is your memories."

"And you need to become as strong as possible within a limited time, starting from the Floor 1, killing enemies, cultivating, advancing, and rushing to the highest level... The time limit is 30 years!"

"When the 30-year period is up, you can reach whichever level you want... As you just saw, the current world record is 96 levels. The one who broke this record is the Lightning Blade Martial General from the Bai Ou Freedom Association... a true genius who Tier 4 Transcendence."

At this point, Tantai Lingyun couldn't help but glance at Su Zhan.

Su Zhan found it very interesting after hearing this.

Does everyone have the exact same Talent Aptitude, and bloodline, starting from a completely equal point?

This is great!

"If memories can be transferred in, then can Cultivation Method too?" Su Zhan asked curiously.

"No."

Tantai Lingyun said, "All the Cultivation Method you learn outside cannot be practiced or used inside... You can only practice the Cultivation Method provided inside."

Fair.

Absolutely fair!

This Cycle Tower has taken fairness to the extreme!

It's estimated that the only advantage those geniuses from powerful Lineage and influential backgrounds have is in intelligence and various Combat Techniques... Apart from that, they're really on the same starting line as everyone else.

This also means that even an ordinary person like Su Zhan, with no background, has the opportunity to surpass others and achieve a comeback!

"But... wouldn't all my Cultivation Method be rendered useless in the same way?"

Su Zhan was helpless.

Since it's about fairness, then he's definitely no exception.

What is the highest level of the Cycle Tower?

"99th Floor," Tantai Lingyun replied, "But as you've seen, the highest floor we can reach so far is only 96."

"Only 96 levels Tier 4 Transcendence, how powerful must someone be to reach 99th Floor?" Su Zhan's eyes flashed.

"Of course, level 96 is almost the limit for Tier 4 Transcendence... To reach 97th Floor, you must Tier 5 Transcendence!" Tantai Lingyun said, "But don't even think about that tier for now. It 'Non-Self underestimating you... Whether it's the Human Race or those Alien Race that are about to target you, since the beginning of history, no one has ever been able to reach the stage of Tier 5 Transcendence!"

"Also, you should thank Lightning Blade Martial General. He's now reached level 96, so the Alien Race will likely focus more of their assassination efforts on him... which will significantly reduce their assassination efforts against you."

"By the way, everyone gets one chance to Tower Challenge each week. Although your current strength is average, you'll receive generous rewards for every ten floors Cycle Tower... Would you like to give it a try?"

Tantai Lingyun looked at Su Zhan.

Her beautiful eyes were full of curiosity.

There are only five Human Race could advance to the Tier 2 Transcendence before the College Entrance Examination, including Su Zhan. The previous four are all gone, Tantai Lingyun can't see them... but Su Zhan is right in front of her.

She was eager to know, how many floors would a monstrous genius like Su Zhan reach on his first entry into the Cycle Tower?
