Everyone was trying their best to climb up the stairs. Even if they couldn't get into the top 30, they couldn't lose too much face, especially when all the disciples from the four big sects were here. No one wanted to drag their own sect down. In a competition like this, it wasn't shameful to lose to one's fellow disciples, but if they lost to someone from another sect, that would be really shameful.
"Haha, you guys from Tianjian Gate are all cowards! Look at your stupid face, you'll definitely get the last place!"
A disciple from the Black Sect turned around and laughed at a disciple from Tianjian Gate who was behind him, mocking him.
"Fuck you, you guys from the Black Sect are the cowards! This time, senior disciple Li Wu Shuang will definitely get first place! The Little Devil King is no match for him! Just wait and see!"
The disciple from Tianjian Gate didn't want to be outdone, he immediately retaliated.
"Get lost, you bastard from the Burning Sky Pavilion, don't touch me!"
"Fuck you, Black Sect, get lost! I'll beat you to death if you keep pushing!"
"Jiejie, junior disciple from the Valley of Happiness, let's talk in private when we have time!"
… …..
The entire Stairway to Heaven was in a mess. Many people were on the same stone step, bumping into each other and fighting each other. All of them were gnashing their teeth in anger. If it wasn't for the rules of the competition forbidding fighting on the Stairway to Heaven, it would have become a battlefield by now.
The competition didn't allow any real fights on the Stairway to Heaven, but there were no restrictions on verbal attacks. Therefore, scolding and mocking could be heard everywhere. Some of the more boorish disciples even cursed 18 generations of their ancestors. They really didn't care about the image of the big sects at all.
As for those who were stronger, none of them said anything. They just kept climbing up the stairs with all their might. However, the higher they climbed, the more obvious the gap between the disciples became. Those strong Late Mortal Core warriors quickly left the others behind.
The most frightening ones were the Little Devil King, Li Wu Shuang and the other two. The four of them were rushing forward like a rocket. They had already reached the 50th stone step, and they were still moving forward side by side.
When the four of them climbed to the sixtieth stone step, they already felt a little unnatural, and their speed had also slowed down. The pressure on the remaining stone steps had multiplied. Even someone as tyrannical as the Little Demon King and the others couldn't advance steadily under the pressure of the four people from the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
At this moment, a youth clad in white stepped onto the Stairway to Heaven. He calmly took a step forward, and with a single step, he was three meters high. He directly ascended to the third step, and with another three steps, he reached the tenth step. His entire body was as light as a swallow, and in the blink of an eye, he had already ascended to the twentieth step. His face still had a smile that resembled the spring breeze, as though the pressure on the Stairway to Heaven was merely a breeze.
"Look, who is that young man? It's actually so fast. "
"There are actually people who are not part of the four great sects who are ignorant enough to participate in the Grand Competition. However, it looks like this kid has some ability. I wonder how many stone steps he can climb."
Many people's gazes were focused on Jiang Chen. There was basically no one else on the stone steps below. Therefore, the sudden appearance of Jiang Chen was very eye-catching.
Those who had made a bet with Da Huang Dog to watch Jiang Chen make a fool of himself were momentarily stunned. Especially those who had previously declared that Jiang Chen would definitely not be able to reach the tenth or twentieth step. Seeing Jiang Chen's performance, their hearts started beating like drums.
"I didn't expect this kid to have some ability. Looks like he wasn't just bragging after all."
"The first twenty steps are not much pressure, so it's normal for him to climb up. I'm guessing he will stop at the fortieth step at most."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Chen leaped up and easily passed the first ten steps. He directly reached the thirtieth step. At this place, many disciples of the four great sects had already started using their hands and feet to climb up. Jiang Chen still had one of his hands behind his back, and there was not the slightest bit of pressure on his face.
"F * ck him."
The person who had just said that Jiang Chen would stop at the fortieth step at most almost vomited blood. Many people who had placed their bets on Da Huang Dog had their hearts pounding.
Pa ~
Jiang Chen took another step forward and reached the thirty-fifth step. His speed was truly extremely fast, like a leopard cat.
"Damn it, who is this guy? How can he be so fast?"
"Where did this guy come from? Isn't this a blow to our confidence? He isn't from the four great sects. I've never seen him before. "
"Could he be someone who isn't from the four great sects? Brothers, hurry up. If we lose to an outsider, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing?"
Jiang Chen's sudden appearance instantly caused a commotion on the Stairway to Heaven. Many people gritted their teeth and prepared to chase after Jiang Chen. However, the pressure was too great and they could no longer bear it. They could only watch as Jiang Chen calmly walked up step by step.
Jiang Chen turned around and grinned at one person. Then, the expressions of the two people froze at the same time.
"F * ck you, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road."
Jiang Chen really wanted to kick that person's face and send him flying off the Stairway to Heaven.
"It's you, it's actually you?"
That person immediately cried out in surprise. He pointed his finger at Jiang Chen and his body was trembling. He was none other than the Tianjian Gate disciple that Jiang Chen had purposely let go back in Origin Mountain.
Jiang Chen did not expect to meet this person here. At that time, after this person ran away, he, Yan Chen Yu, and Da Huang Dog had left the mountain. Although they had stayed in Silver Moon City for a while, their speed was still not comparable to this person. Jiang Chen had only arrived yesterday, but this person had actually arrived before him and was even participating in the competition. This was indeed out of Jiang Chen's expectation.
However, it was not hard to explain. The Tianjian Gate's influence was spread all over the Qi Province. As a disciple of the Tianjian Gate, no matter where he went, he would receive great help. The simplest help was flying demonic beasts.
"Chang Lin, do you know this guy?"
A disciple of the Tianjian Gate asked.
"Not only do I know him, senior brother Liang Dong and Chen Shuang were all killed by him. He is in cahoots with Da Huang Dog."
That person's name was Chang Lin. When he saw Jiang Chen here, he immediately said while clenching his teeth. He did not remember the time when he had knelt in front of Jiang Chen in Origin Mountain and peed his pants.
"What? That's him? How audacious! How dare he participate in the competition? Today, I will tear him into pieces! "
Jiang Chen's identity was exposed in an instant, causing the disciples of the Tianjian Gate to look at him with hatred.
Sigh!
Jiang Chen shook his head and sighed. He thought that his luck was not on his side, but he was not afraid. Today's situation was different. It was a competition between the four major sects, and it was not up to the Tianjian Gate alone to decide.
Jiang Chen pointed his middle finger at the disciples of the Tianjian Gate, then he turned around and continued climbing.
"Damn it, how dare this guy look down on us, the Tianjian Gate? Kill him, we must kill him!"
"He is too audacious! A rogue cultivator dares to be rude to the Tianjian Gate, and he even killed a disciple of the Tianjian Gate! There is no way he can survive this!"
"Haha, the Tianjian Gate is finished! Even a rogue cultivator can look down on you!"
"That's right, this young man is not bad, I like him!"
The people from the Heavenly Sword Sect were furious, but on the other side, the people from the Black Sect were laughing out loud. They were having a great time. As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. The disciples of the Black Sect now found Jiang Chen pleasing to the eye.
At this moment, the Little Devil King and the others had climbed up to the 70th step. At this point, the four of them were sweating profusely, and every step they took was extremely difficult. The pressure from the four Late Heavenly Core geniuses was making them tremble.
Maybe their talent was not any weaker than the four men above them, and one day, they would be able to catch up to them, or even surpass them. But too bad, their cultivation levels were too low right now.
Pa ~
The Little Devil King and Li Wu Shuang climbed up another step. This time, Yi Qing Zi and Ling Ao were slower, and the difference between them was obvious.
Swoosh swoosh …
Right at this moment, the four of them felt a strong wind coming from behind them. They couldn't help but turn around and look. What they saw was a young man dressed in white chasing after them like the wind. His speed was extremely fast, as if he didn't feel any pressure at all.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chen arrived next to the Little Devil King. He grinned, then he cupped his fist and said, "Brother Han, long time no see."
"Good move, brother. How should I address you?"
Han Yan asked while gasping for breath. Looking at Jiang Chen's calm and relaxed expression, this was the first time he felt a sense of defeat in his heart. That day, although he could tell that Jiang Chen was not an ordinary man, he didn't expect that Jiang Chen's performance would be beyond his imagination. That day, when he helped Jiang Chen, it was just a spur of the moment decision, and he didn't ask for Jiang Chen's name. But today, when he saw Jiang Chen catching up to him on the Stairway to Heaven, he paid more attention to Jiang Chen, and that's why he asked for Jiang Chen's name.
"Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen patted Han Yan's shoulder and said, "Brother Han, take your time climbing, I'll go up first."
After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and continued jumping forward. The pressure had no effect on him at all.
"How is this possible?"
Li Wu Shuang's eyes were wide open, his face was filled with disbelief.
"Who is this young man? His Yuan energy is only at the Early Mortal Core realm, why is he not afraid of the pressure? "
"He's not from the four big sects, and he actually surpassed us!"
Yi Qing Zi and Ling Ao were shocked as well.
"Hmph! Li Wu Shuang, you have to know that there's always someone better than you out there. If you have nothing better to do, you better put away that arrogant face of yours, or you'll just make people hate you. "
Han Yan let out a cold snort and said to Li Wu Shuang without any politeness.
"He's just a little Early Mortal Core warrior, I wonder what kind of cheating method he used to climb so high. If I meet him in the second round of the fighting stage, I'll be able to kill him with just one finger."
Li Wu Shuang said with an arrogant expression.
"If you have the ability, just keep climbing."
Han Yan sneered, then he turned around and continued climbing while gritting his teeth. But when he saw Jiang Chen had already reached the 80th step, he was so depressed that he almost knocked his head on the stone step. He couldn't help but say, "What a freak."
"Look, the new first place disciple has surpassed the Little Devil King and Li Wu Shuang, and he's still climbing!"
"Heavens, it's true! Who is that young man? Why is he so strong?"
"Another dark horse! Last time there was a dark horse in the inner circle competition, who would have thought that there would be another one today! Not only that, he's not from the four big sects, this is so exciting!"
