Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 200: Chapter 117: Refining God Golden Pill and Climbing to the Top (Fourth Release Seeking Subscription)

This was the result of observing the first ten climbers.

Steady and slow, this should be more efficient.

Quarter of an hour had passed, and some disciples had already reached their limit.

Many disciples were stuck at over sixty tiers, with the lowest having reached sixty-two tiers and unable to move up any further.

Xu Jin saw Lu Xianbing, currently stuck on the sixty-ninth tier, still striving to climb higher.

”Brother Lu, gather your spirit and calm your breath, then try to push for a few more tiers!”

”Brother Jin, you go on!” Lu Xianbing said with a bitter smile.

He understood that he had reached his limit and could at most climb a few more tiers.

Therefore, he wasn’t too hopeful about becoming a core disciple anymore, but of course, he still had a chance in the next round.

At the seventy-first tier, Xu Jin saw Yue Daqi and, after offering a word of encouragement, continued his steady ascent.

Yue Daqi saw Xu Jin ascending steadily as if under no pressure at all and felt a mix of envy and helplessness.

He, the Star Pointing number one of Jinshan Taoist Institute, was perhaps the most questioned among all the Star-pointing Seasons to date.

As Xu Jin’s performance became more and more dazzling, most believed that Xu Jin should be this season’s Star Pointing champion. His title of first place, they thought, was undeserved.

First surpassed by Lu Xianbing and later by Xu Jin.

When Yue Daqi first began climbing the Heavenly Ascending Stairs, he had surpassed Lu Xianbing by three tiers in one breath and felt excited. Now, he thought he could prove his title as the champion of Star-pointing Season was well-deserved.

Ascending the stairs relied entirely on the strength of Divine Soul Power, with no technique or luck involved.

But now, watching Xu Jin easily step onto the seventy-fourth tier after the seventy-third, Yue Daqi felt discouraged again.

He felt his title as the Star Pointing first place was indeed unwarranted.

The real Star Pointing champion should be Xu Jin.

All the way up, Xu Jin kept overtaking others.

Yan Chen, who was ranked first, had already stepped onto the one hundred eightieth tier at this very moment, with Meng Qingqiu in second place at one hundred seventy-nine tiers, Yuan Feiqing third at one hundred seventy-eight, and Ji Hongli fourth at one hundred seventy-seven.

Xu Jin at seventy-five tiers.

However, it was clear that the advance speed of the top four had slowed down a lot.

It took several breaths to climb up one tier.

Whereas Xu Jin was still stepping up steadily, neither fast nor slow—just stable!

At the seventy-sixth tier, Xu Jin saw Zhang Ming from the institute and after a word of encouragement, passed him.

At the seventy-ninth tier, Xu Jin came across Zhang Han, now the institute’s third elder brother, and after a word of encouragement, passed him as well.

At the ninety-third tier, Xu Jin encountered Wang Weisheng, once the institute’s eldest brother.

”Brother Wang, take a moment to adjust and strive to climb a tier or two more,” Xu Jin said.

”I’ll do my best, keep going, Eldest Brother,” Wang Weisheng saluted Xu Jin, who saluted back and stepped onto the ninety-fourth tier.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Jin had reached the one hundred fiftieth tier.

Looking back, from the one hundred fiftieth tier down to the one hundredth, there were only about ten people.

Among the eight hundred disciples, the majority were concentrated below the hundredth tier.

The number of people between the sixtieth and seventieth tiers was the highest.

Above the one hundred fiftieth tier, one could see eleven figures.

On the ranking board in the sky, Meng Qingqiu had become the first, having reached one hundred ninety-three tiers. Yan Chen and Yuan Feiqing ranked second at one hundred ninety-two tiers.

And Meng Qingqiu had already stood over the one hundred ninety-third tier for more than ten breaths.

Xu Jin continued ascending lightly.

One hundred sixty tiers, one hundred seventy tiers, one hundred eighty tiers.

When Xu Jin stepped onto the one hundred eightieth tier and passed Guan Li, Zeng Yao, and Fang Mingchun, the three wore bewildered expressions.

What a joke! How could a disciple from a county institute manage to reach the one hundred eightieth tier?

Such an instance was rare even once in a decade.

They had not only all consumed Mental-locking Golden Pills but had also received special training several times!
