On the back mountain of Xianzong, a long and narrow staircase reaches straight into the sky.
This staircase is the Immortal Sect Tongtian Road, with a total length of 999 steps. It has been used as a training ground for Immortal Sect disciples in the past, but this time it has become the second round of the competition.
Wang Qiang and others were standing in front of Tongtian Road, looking at the end of the stairs with no end in sight.
After going through the first round of trials, all those who passed felt an inexplicable sense of tension in their hearts.
Everyone understands that this competition is definitely not just talk. Even Yin Chunqiu attaches great importance to it. You can imagine how difficult this matter is for ordinary monks.
"Be careful in this second round of trials. The dangers on the road to the sky are no less than those in the secret realm. It can even be said to be more difficult."
Meng Qingtian came to Wang Qiang's side at some unknown time and frowned as a reminder.
Although Wang Qiang is now very satisfied with the results he has achieved. This is the first time that the Qingyang Sect did not end up at the bottom of the competition, but now that there is a chance, who doesn't want to improve the ranking by a few places?
Wang Qiang naturally understood Meng Qingtian's thoughts, and he smiled confidently and replied: "Don't worry, these are just minor problems."
This confidence is not groundless. Xia Yanzhi once said before that Tongtian Road Mountain tests the ability to withstand pressure.
However, this is a piece of cake for Wang Qiang. After using the Vajra Indestructible Body, who else can withstand pressure more easily than him?
It can be said that this second trial arranged by Yin Chunqiu was completely prepared for him. If he wanted to pass it, there would be absolutely no surprises.
But Wang Qiang himself knew his own strength, but others didn't. When Wei Dongxing, who was not far away from him, heard this, a sneer immediately appeared on his lips.
"Hmph, you don't overestimate your abilities. You start to feel arrogant after you achieve a few achievements. Do you really think that you are invincible?"
"It doesn't matter whether I'm invincible or not, I'm definitely better than you anyway!" He chose to fight back without hesitation, not giving Wei Dongxing a good look at all. Wang Qiang didn't even look at him.
Through the first round of trials, Wang Qiang has gradually sensed the combat power of the strongest players in the field.
However, Wei Dongxing was not among these people.
Yes, Wei Dongxing is indeed very powerful among the younger generation in Donghuang, but being strong does not mean being the strongest. He thinks he can stand alone, but little does he know that the truly powerful people just keep a low profile.
People like Wei Dongxing can only be regarded as clowns at best, and they are not even qualified to be taken seriously by Wang Qiang.
At the same time, the so-called eight geniuses are mostly people who are seeking fame and reputation. Some clues about this can be seen through Zhang Zhong, who was defeated by Wang Qiang before.
After all, who wouldn’t brag? Real strength is the key to the problem!
"Brother Wang, you must work hard. Xiaobai wants to pass the trial with you." Bai Yixin squeezed up at some point and looked at Wang Qiang with admiration in her big eyes.
She just found out what Wang Qiang did in the first round of trials.
From the desperate fishing attack to the subsequent promotion, these things are simply despicable in the eyes of many monks who claim to be famous and upright.
But Xiaobai is a casual cultivator. She has been taught by her father since she was a child that people who care about big things do not stick to trivial matters. If she wants to live a better life, she can only do anything.
Therefore, Xiaobai’s values actually coincide with Wang Qiang’s to some extent.
After learning about Wang Qiang's glorious achievements, I admired him even more.
To be honest, Wang Qiang was a little surprised that Xiaobai could pass the first round of trials. After all, such a good girl does not appear to be particularly strong. How did she pass the trials?
Wang Qiang slowly shook his head while pondering, feeling a little emotional that he was still too young and had not gotten rid of the bad habit of judging people by their appearance.
The world is never that simple. Anyone who likes to judge people by their appearance will eventually pay a heavy price.
Just like the group of people who looked down on Wang Qiang at the beginning, what happened to them in the end?
Just like that, when everyone was ready, Yin Chunqiu gave an order: "There are no rules in the second round of trials. You can do whatever you want, but remember, only the first thirty people reach the top."
Only then can talents enter the final round of the ring battle.”
"You guys... take care of yourself!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone including Wang Qiang took a breath.
No one expected that Yin Chunqiu actually added additional weights to the original trial rules.
Looking at the people present this time, there are more than hundreds, and most of these people will be eliminated in this second round of trials. Is Tongtian Road really that exaggerated?
There is no doubt that Yin Chunqiu's speech is equivalent to raising the difficulty of the trial to another level. Therefore, the competition now is not only the ability to withstand pressure, but speed is also one of the judging criteria.
In fact, it is easy to understand this way of thinking. After all, if someone is born with great endurance and spends a month or two to climb to the top, then everyone still has to wait for him to succeed?
Yin Chunqiu set the number of people who can pass the test at thirty, which is equivalent to increasing the difficulty in disguise. This way, it can also eliminate to the maximum extent those who are cheating and whose virtue is not worthy of their qualifications.
I have to say that he is truly worthy of being the leader of the Immortal Sect, and he thinks about the problem very comprehensively. Even Wang Qiang couldn't help but nod secretly at this point.
only...
Wang Qiang suddenly glanced at Meng Qingning beside him.
He could silently feel the stubbornness in Meng Qingning's heart.
If Meng Qingning fails to successfully complete the trial in this trial, it will definitely be a big blow to her.
Putting it in another person's shoes, if Wang Qiang were Meng Qingning, he would definitely want to prove himself at this moment, instead of always being hidden under the wings of others. This kind of thing is easy to understand.
It’s just that Meng Qingning’s foundation is still shallow after all.
Unconsciously, Wang Qiang gritted his teeth and silently said to himself that in this trial, even if he had to lift Meng Qingning, he would still carry Meng Qingning to the finish line.
Not for anything else, just to satisfy the small wish of the woman I love!
"Everyone obeys the order!" Just as Wang Qiang's thoughts were mixed, Yin Chunqiu suddenly shouted: "The second round of the competition, climbing the Tongtian Road, has officially begun!"
Following Yin Chunqiu's order, everyone filed in and lined up on the Road to Heaven.
But from the beginning, something didn't feel right.
The first few monks who boarded the Tongtian Road screamed and were knocked to the ground after taking just one step. They were then teleported out and eliminated on the spot.
This move also shocked countless monks who were filming behind them. No one thought that this road to heaven would be so much scarier than they imagined.
You must know that those who can pass the first round of trials are already strong enough to stand alone, but even so they are still unable to resist the pressure on the Tongtian Road, which shows how difficult this round of trials is.
Invisibly, the pressure in everyone's hearts suddenly increased, and the whole scene suddenly became quiet, and there was no sound at all.
