A great black light shone brightly within the Pagoda of a Hundred Saints.
Gongsun Xie's bad premonition grew stronger.
But he quickly tried to suppress his bad feeling.
Gongsun Xie pursed his lips.
No.
No, it won't.
Wang Yan has only just broken through to the Thearch Realm; how could his strength and aura possibly be superior to mine?
Even now, so what if Wang Yan's aura is stronger than mine?
Perhaps some Secret Method was used.
It's just Secret Method; how long can it last?
Pagoda of a Hundred Saints is not a one-off event.
Moreover, he had personally experienced the difficulties involved.
It can be said that each level is more terrifying and horrifying than the last.
He used almost all his strength to reach the fifty-seventh level, completely exhausting his Spiritual Power, and the Spiritual Power in his Dantian was squeezed to its limit.
That's how they successfully reached the fifty-seventh level.
And Wang Yan...
Even at the twelfth level, they were already using Secret Method.
Thinking about it, Gongsun Xie couldn't help but shake his head.
It's obvious that Wang Yan couldn't possibly go very far.
He's overthinking it.
Thinking this way, Gongsun Xie felt much better, and a smile returned to his face. He calmly looked up at the shimmering spiritual light surrounding the Pagoda of a Hundred Saints.
but...
He thought that when Wang Yan reached the thirteenth, fourteenth, or at most the twentieth level, his Secret Method would expire, his aura would drop, and he would be pushed out of the tower.
But things didn't go as he expected.
Since Wang Yan's aura was released, it has been surging upwards almost continuously, unstoppable, without any sign of stopping or weakening.
He climbed upwards with seemingly tireless madness.
To everyone's astonishment, he charged through the twentieth, Thirty, and fortieth floors with unstoppable momentum...
Even on the fiftieth floor, it still didn't stop!
51.
Fifty-Three.
56.
Fifty... Seven.
Gongsun Xie's expression changed completely; his earlier ease vanished. He clenched his teeth, staring intently at the level he had just reached. He saw the black light not linger on the fifty-seventh level for long before suddenly leaping upwards.
We've arrived at the fifty-eighth floor.
The stone tablet next to the Pagoda of a Hundred Saints once again shone with dazzling light.
This time, a name quietly made its way onto the list, leaping up to occupy a spot.
The name ' Gongsun Xie ', which had only recently appeared on the list, was also directly suppressed.
Everyone fell silent as they watched this scene unfold.
The name Wang Yan radiated a halo, towering above the name Gongsun Xie. The dean of the Great Cosmos Holy Academy was so struck by this that he didn't even bother to rip off his beard.
His mind was completely filled with shock.
two!
There are two people!
How could two people make the list in just one day?
Previously, it might take thousands of years for even one person to make the list.
today...
What incredible luck Great Cosmos Holy Academy has struck!
Two people making the list on the same day is something that hasn't happened in nearly ten thousand years at the Great Cosmos Holy Academy.
The last time was ten thousand years ago, when two unparalleled geniuses clashed.
Both of them later became Great Saint.
It is a legendary existence in the Taiyu Divine Dynasty.
To this day, their names remain household names in the Taiyu Divine Dynasty.
This is unbelievable...
Gongsun Xie, standing nearby, remained stunned for a long time.
His eyes were filled with shock.
He never expected that Wang Yan would actually be able to break through to the fifty-eighth level in one go.
Of all times, it had to fall on my head?
He exerted all his strength, even straining his Dantian until it ached, squeezing out the last of his Spiritual Power to finally reach the fifty-seventh level. And what was the result?
Wang Yan passed away in one breath!?
This is too much...
Gongsun Xie was speechless, and the other holy teachers were even more unable to utter a single word, feeling their hair standing on end.
Half of it was shock, and the other half was excitement and exhilaration.
Before this, they had speculated that Wang Yan's talent must be terrifying, but they never expected that his talent would be this terrifying.
He reached the fifty-eighth floor in one go, entering the top 100 of the Hundred Saints Ranking. It can be said that with such talent, his future is far superior to theirs!
No wonder Wang Yan had always been unwilling to become an apprentice before this.
I see, I see...
Everyone thought that Wang Yan must be tired by now that things had come to this.
For them, the number fifty-eight is definitely a rather terrifying number.
However, no one expected that fifty-eight was not the end for Wang Yan at all.
In fact, this is only the beginning!
His breakthrough speed has not slowed down at all; he is still rapidly advancing.
Starting from fifty-eight.
Sixty-eight, seventy-eight, all the way up to... ninety-eight!
Everyone was completely stunned. In the vast square, countless students and masters did not utter a word or make a sound. They all held their breath, as if afraid that their breath might ruin Wang Yan's path to advancement.
But everyone's expression was exactly the same.
This is insane!
Almost everyone has gone mad!
Ninety-eight!
Ninety-eight!
The Pagoda of a Hundred Saints only has ninety-nine floors in total!
At this moment, Wang Yan's name climbed directly to second place on the Hundred Saints Ranking!
In other words, if Wang Yan can make one more step forward, he will reach the top!
And that number one was once the most legendary national advisor of their Taiyu Divine Dynasty!
Later, he reached the peak of the Great Saint Sage realm!
When the entire Taiyu Divine Dynasty was on the verge of collapse, it held the entire dynasty up!
There are rumors that if the Grand Preceptor hadn't been so exhausted and had instead supported the entire Divine Dynasty, he might have later become Saint King!
That is a regret that will forever remain in the hearts of everyone in the Taiyu Divine Dynasty.
But now, someone's talent is actually comparable to that of the Imperial Advisor?
Demon, monster!
Those few words resonated in everyone's hearts.
This caused them all to instinctively look at Lin Xuan, who was still outside the tower.
However, to their surprise, Lin Xuan showed no sign of shock whatsoever.
When Wang Yan first entered the Pagoda of a Hundred Saints, Lin Xuan remained indifferent.
He remained calm, only with a hint of relief in his expression.
It's as if...
That's how things should have been.
Many of the holy masters were already breathing heavily, and their eyes were filled with even more awe as they looked at Lin Xuan.
It's said that this person is not even forty years old...
Indeed, only a prodigy can bring forth a prodigy.
At this moment, looking at Lin Xuan's expression, a wildly inexplicable conjecture arose in their minds.
Judging from Lin Xuan's appearance, could it be...?
He previously said that Wang Yan was able to reach the top, not to save face for himself, but because it was true!?
