After checking the rewards on the Stairway Tree, Lin Huang searched the entire square on top of the Stairway Tree. He logged out after confirming that there was nothing else.
A couple of messages popped up on his Emperor's Heart Ring as soon as he logged out.
Lin Huang glanced at them and realized that they were sent by people he knew. Apart from Jian Fei and the rest from the Heaven Alliance, there were also messages from Yi Zheng and Yi Yeyu. Clearly, they had seen the notification from the Stairway Tree system.
The messages were basically congratulating him for clearing the stage. Lin Huang gave a simple reply.
After replying to the messages, Lin Huang felt tired all over his body. He had not slept for more than 60 hours. Moreover, he had been in a highly stimulated state because he had been killing monsters. He could finally relax now.
Lin Huang did not resist the tiredness that came from his body. Instead, he allowed himself to fall asleep.
He had no idea that the entire Genius Union was in an uproar because he had passed the entire Stairway Tree while he was in a deep sleep.
Not only did the number of people online on the Stairway Tree break the record, but there was also a heated discussion on the Stairway Tree forum. Almost the first ten pages of the forum were discussing Lin Xie's breakthrough.
Even the Coalition government forum, the Hunter forum, and the black market forum were discussing Lin Xie.
All the media changed the headlines the next morning as soon as they heard the news. Lin Xie's name became the No. 1 trending topic on all the social media sites used by cultivators.
Lin Huang only woke up at six in the morning the next day. After washing up, he realized that Mr. Fu had called him the day before. He glanced at the time and thought it was too early, so he did not call back.
After having breakfast, Lin Huang returned to the Emperor's Palace directly. He then took the time to look at the news on the internet.
As soon as he opened the news page on his Emperor's Heart Ring, the headline was a picture of him pretending to be Lin Xie. The title was' The No.1 Genius of the New Era, Lin Xie '!
He looked at the number of clicks and realized that it had exceeded 300 million. He knew that he was popular again.
If it was in the past, the title of the first monstrous genius would definitely cause a lot of controversy.
But this time, when it was used on Lin Huang, there were not many objections on the major social media sites and forums.
From Division1 to Division12, as long as one was a member of an aristocratic family or a powerful organization, most of them knew about the existence of the Evil Alliance and what kind of organization it was.
Other than the three core zones, less than 1% of the people in the other nine safe zones were qualified to join the Evil Alliance. Most of the young geniuses who were famous in their own safe zones were not strong enough to join the Evil Alliance. Therefore, joining the Evil Alliance, even if it was just an ordinary member, was enough to prove one's strength.
As for Lin Xie, Lin Huang had been a celebrity in the Evil Alliance ever since he joined the Evil Alliance. In the beginning, due to his low combat strength, he was doubted by many. However, as he continued to overcome the doubts, most of the people in the Evil Alliance were convinced of his strength. Even those who did not like him had to admit that he had a heaven-defying ability after he broke through the 72nd checkpoint on the Stairway Tree.
There were also some young geniuses who did not join the Evil Alliance in the safe zones. Most of them were acquainted with the Evil Alliance's circle. Basically, they had heard about Lin Xie from the Evil Alliance's members. Naturally, they would not question him.
Most of the people who disagreed with him did not know much about Lin Huang. Some of them had not even heard of the Evil Alliance. There were even a few arrogant fellows who claimed that they could easily pass 100 checkpoints on the Stairway Tree if they managed to get on it.
Some of the people in the Evil Alliance could not help but jump out and explain the content of the first 63 checkpoints on the Stairway Tree. Those who claimed that they could break through 100 checkpoints deleted their posts and disappeared after reading the content of the assessment.
The cultivators who did not know much about the Evil Alliance had a rough idea of what kind of genius organization it was through the content of the checkpoints on the Stairway Tree that was spread on the internet.
Many of them began to discuss how many checkpoints they could break through if they were to enter the Stairway Tree.
"I'm on immortal-level rank-9, but I think I can only break through 30 checkpoints on the Stairway Tree. I have to admit that those who can break through the 63rd checkpoint are really bosses. "
"I'm on immortal-level rank-7, but I don't think I can even break through the 29th checkpoint. The difficulty of this checkpoint is really terrifying. "
"I think I can't even break through the 23rd checkpoint if I'm on immortal-level rank-6. However, I heard that some of the people in the Evil Alliance who have the same combat strength as me can break through more than 50 checkpoints. "
"I'm on immortal-level rank-3, but I don't think I can even break through the worms on the 4th checkpoint. I'm sorry, I'm a weakling. "
…
After reading the Heart Network, Lin Huang browsed through all the social media websites and forums. He realized that almost all of the topics were about him.
He only picked the most popular posts to read, and it was already past nine in the morning in the blink of an eye.
It was already 9.08 am when he closed the black market forum. Lin Huang looked at the time and tapped open the communication page to call Mr. Fu.
The video call was picked up in less than three seconds.
Mr. Fu was wearing a black shirt that looked like a traditional Chinese suit with light blue patterns printed on it. He looked like an underworld boss.
"Apprentice, I heard that you've broken through the Stairway Tree?" Mr. Fu asked while smiling.
"Yes, I did." Lin Huang nodded as if he was talking about something insignificant.
He thought Mr. Fu would be curious about the benefits that he had obtained after breaking through the Stairway Tree, but Mr. Fu did not ask about it.
Instead, he continued to say while smiling, "You're my apprentice indeed. You're definitely worthy of being called the No. 1 genius of the new era!"
Although Lin Huang was thick-skinned, he could not help but feel embarrassed to be complimented like that.
"Your overall ability shouldn't be any weaker than a demigod since you managed to break through the Stairway Tree. What do you plan to do next?" Mr. Fu asked again.
"I plan to go into closed-door cultivation and break through to imperial-level! I'll spend some time to settle some things that I have on hand after elevating to imperial-level. I'll head to the great world after that! Then, I'll rush back before the disaster strikes the gravel world! "
Mr. Fu fell into silence for a while after hearing that. He only spoke again after a long while, "If you can't find a way to solve the disaster, stay in the great world …"
Mr. Fu opened his mouth to say 'don't come back to die', but he did not say it out loud. He was afraid that it might backfire.
"I'll find a way." Lin Huang looked determined.
"Since you're confident, go ahead and do it!" Mr. Fu nodded while smiling. He then added in all seriousness, "Don't force yourself if you really can't do it."
