The Beast Soul Tower's internal structure was extremely unusual.
Its space was not singular and fixed.
In fact, everyone who entered the tower occupied a completely independent space, without affecting one another.
Although Wei Yi had entered the Beast Soul Tower right after Han Wenshu, he could not see any sign of Han Wenshu once he stepped inside.
What appeared before him was a desolate, dilapidated hall.
A conspicuous plaque hung above the hall, bearing three large characters-
First floor!
Several ferocious, hideous demonic beasts lay crouched in the corners of the hall.
The instant Wei Yi stepped into the hall, these demonic beasts opened their eyes one after another and slowly raised their heads. Every pair of eyes brimmed with bloody bloodlust, and their gazes upon Wei Yi were filled with greed and madness.
It was as though Wei Yi were Tang Sanzang, and eating his flesh would grant them immortality.
He held an infinite attraction for them.
"Roar..."
With a wild roar,
the rhinoceros demonic beast at the front was the first to charge at Wei Yi.
The other demonic beasts were not slow to react either.
They leaped up, scrambling to get ahead of one another.
Like dark shadows on gusting winds, they moved at astonishing speed, pouncing at Wei Yi almost simultaneously.
A nauseating, bloody stench rushed straight at him.
Even Wei Yi's expression could not help shifting slightly.
He had to admit that this Beast Soul Tower truly was extraordinary. This environment and scene were almost no different from fighting demonic beasts to the death in the outside world.
But Wei Yi was no ordinary martial artist, after all. These few first-tier demonic beasts could do nothing to him.
"Die!"
Wei Yi's eyes were cold as the Hero Sword left its sheath.
A dazzling flash of light erupted.
This treasured weapon, which he had only recently acquired, displayed its astonishing might for the first time.
Swish, swish, swish...
Sword Qi cleaved through the air.
Blood spurted!
Wei Yi had not even moved his feet, remaining firmly planted where he stood.
But every one of the four or five ferocious demonic beasts pouncing at him fell, without so much as touching the hem of his robes.
None survived the Hero Sword.
Moments later, amid a series of crisp bursts, all four or five demonic beasts vanished.
"Ding, player Wei Yi has slain a first-tier demonic beast soul. Cultivation has not broken through; unable to gain cultivation experience. Thirteen Life-Seizing Swords experience +35." "Ding, player Wei Yi has slain a first-tier demonic beast soul. Cultivation has not broken through; unable to gain cultivation experience. Thirteen Life-Seizing Swords experience +42." "Ding, player Wei Yi has slain a first-tier demonic beast soul. Cultivation has not broken through; unable to gain cultivation experience. Thirteen Life-Seizing Swords experience +30."
At the same time, a string of notifications rang out in his mind.
Looking at the newly added information on the system panel, Wei Yi froze in surprise, and a trace of delighted astonishment he could not conceal surfaced on his face.
He truly had not expected that killing beast souls in this Beast Soul Tower could also earn him experience.
Although he did not gain much experience each time,
this was far more satisfying than hunting demonic beasts in the forests out in the wild.
After all, hunting demonic beasts in the wild was not only dangerous, but also involved all sorts of trouble and hardship.
Killing beast souls in this Beast Soul Tower, however, was easy and simple, and the beast souls came in an endless stream. It was simply a first-rate sacred ground for farming experience-at least at Wei Yi's current realm.
"Looks like I really will have to visit this place more often for a while."
"I thought getting the Thirteen Life-Seizing Swords to the level cap of LV20 would be difficult. Now that I have a sacred ground for farming experience like this, it won't be so hard..."
"The Overlord Sect really lives up to its name. Looks like I made the right choice back then."
Wei Yi laughed happily.
Just then, the space around him suddenly shifted.
He entered the space on the Beast Soul Tower's second floor.
It was another desolate, empty hall.
However, the demonic beasts that appeared inside were noticeably stronger, and there were somewhat more of them as well.
"So they grow stronger with each floor?"
Wei Yi murmured, immediately tightening his grip on his treasured sword.
"Roar..."
Just then, a series of strange cries rang out.
Just as on the first floor, once the demonic beasts in the hall awakened, they soon charged madly at Wei Yi.
Wei Yi swung his sword and struck back.
The slaughter began again.
While Wei Yi and Han Wenshu challenged the tower, the numbers displayed on the light screen outside kept changing.
Han Wenshu truly lived up to his standing as a powerful veteran disciple, with plenty of experience challenging the tower.
In a short time, the number representing him changed again and again.
While Wei Yi was still on the first floor, he had already reached the space on the Beast Soul Tower's third floor.
When Wei Yi reached the second floor, he had already entered the fifth, advancing with tremendous momentum.
The gap between the two seemed to be growing wider and wider...
Seeing such an enormous gap, the lackeys gathered around Han Wenshu could not help crowing smugly.
"Haha, isn't that gap a bit too big? If you ask me, by the time Senior Brother Han reaches the thirtieth floor, that brat probably won't even have reached the tenth."
"Hard to say. Maybe he'll fail on the ninth floor and get kicked out?"
"A newcomer dares compare himself to Senior Brother Han? What a pipe dream. Newcomers these days really don't know their own limits!"
"Exactly, exactly! He had a little dogshit luck and scraped a win in one match, and now he thinks he's somebody. Hmph, his true colors are about to show!"
Those people kept jeering.
Their words infuriated Zhu Ling'er and her two companions.
And not just them-even some of the nearby new disciples looked displeased, because... they had been dragged into the insults too.
The veteran disciples, on the other hand, kept laughing and chatting. Clearly, they did not take it seriously and had only come to watch the show.
"These bastards are infuriating!"
Liu Huan cursed under his breath in anger.
"They look down on everyone through their dog eyes. Just wait until they get slapped in the face!" Pei Qinghe cursed as well, his expression ugly.
"Big Brother Wei will definitely win."
Zhu Ling'er pressed her palms together and prayed nonstop.
"Huh? Wait, look... it changed, it changed..." Liu Huan raised his head, then suddenly widened his eyes and cried out.
"What changed?"
Zhu Ling'er and Pei Qinghe asked in confusion.
"Look at the numbers changing on the light screen," Liu Huan explained urgently, pointing at it.
Zhu Ling'er and Pei Qinghe turned their heads. Their mouths instantly fell open, and their pupils contracted.
"It changed. It really changed... it's changing so fast..."
Third floor!
Fourth floor!
Fifth floor!
Swish, swish, swish...
It kept refreshing, kept changing, almost a new number with every instant.
There was no trace of its earlier sluggishness.
The gap between him and Han Wenshu kept shrinking as well.
For a moment, everyone present could not help staring wide-eyed. It was not that they had never seen someone challenge the tower, but they had never seen anyone do it this fast.
Shock they could not conceal welled up in all their eyes.
"It changed."
"It changed again!"
"Holy shit, he passed him! That brat passed Han Wenshu!"
"My god, this newcomer is badass."
Now even the veteran disciples were swept up in the excitement, unable to stop themselves from shouting.
More and more people were drawn over.
