Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 302 Breaking Through The Eighteenth Floor

Since Fairy Wanyue was so anxious, Lu Yu didn't delay any longer.

After tidying up a bit, he arrived at the Greedy Wolf Hall.

"Do you want to undergo this round of trials?" the old man in charge of the trials asked Lu Yu with a glance.

"Sure," Lu Yu nodded confidently.

It was just a trial, not like he hadn't been through it before.

Besides, he had already comprehended the third level of the Tianji Heart Jade Scroll, so participating in the trial now would be a waste of his talents.

"Alright, Lu Yu, get ready for the second trial and then go," the old man nodded.

"Good luck!" Fairy Wanyue seemed worried that he wouldn't achieve good results, quietly cheering him on from the side.

Lu Yu just smiled faintly and stepped into the trial arena.

Just like before, as soon as he entered the trial arena, countless gusts of wind blew, and a group of small monsters rushed towards him.

He didn't even need to lift a finger against these low-level monsters; he simply released his spiritual energy and sent them flying.

"His strength has improved quite quickly, he's already at the mid-stage of Foundation Building!" Lu Yu was delighted to see these small monsters that had once troubled him being instantly defeated.

Then he began to walk forward slowly.

The journey was just as difficult as before.

For ordinary cultivators, every step was a torment, requiring almost 100% effort.

But for him now, at least the first part of the journey was effortless.

It wasn't until the seventeenth level that he encountered a slight obstacle.

This was also the farthest he had reached before.

However, with his improved strength, the seventeenth level clearly couldn't stop him anymore.

After a bit of effort, he defeated the guardian monster of the seventeenth level, and Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief before taking a moment to recover his strength.

From now on, every step forward would be a new challenge for him, so he had to keep himself in the best condition.

As he rested, he had no idea that the Greedy Wolf Hall was already in an uproar.

Today was the second-to-last day of the trial, and tomorrow the entire trial would come to an end, and everyone's rankings would be finalized.

Many people had come early in the morning, hoping to see if there were any changes on the Tianji Ranking today.

The first thing those who arrived heard from the old man on duty was that Lu Yu was participating in the trial again.

Who was Lu Yu? He was the top of the Tianji Ranking in the previous round!

He had only participated in the trial once this time, and the results were not ideal.

Many people speculated whether his previous success was due to luck or if his strength had truly reached that level.

Sure enough, Lu Yu had come to participate in the trial again, immediately attracting the attention of many people.

"Look, Lu Yu has moved forward again! It seems that his strength is indeed extraordinary."

"Nonsense, he was the top of the Tianji Ranking in the previous round! This time, his results are just on par with the previous round."

"But the competition this time is much fiercer than before, and Lu Yu has yet to enter the top three."

Most of the people outside were just here to watch the excitement, only Yi Zhong and his two companions, who were in the top three, were the most worried.

They had already exerted all their strength in the previous trials, and there was probably no hope of going further.

If Lu Yu stopped here, then they would successfully secure the top three positions.

In any case, the rewards for the top three were quite good.

But if Lu Yu were to move forward again... the rankings of the top three would change.

"Quick, look, Senior Yi Zhong is here!"

"Senior Yi Zhong has already comprehended the second layer of the Tianji Heart Sutra and reached the twentieth level in the trial. It would be difficult for Lu Yu to surpass Senior Yi Zhong. His best result would probably be to advance into the top three."

"Advance into the top three? You're overestimating him."

Upon hearing the comments of some people, Yi Zhong, who had arrived upon hearing the news, sneered.

Is it so easy to enter the top three?

He had been holding back for decades, just for a remarkable performance this year.

And everyone was well aware of Lu Yu's strength, which was only at the eighteenth level.

"In my opinion, he will probably be stopped at the eighteenth level this time. Advancing further is absolutely impossible!"

Yi Zhong confidently declared.

But as soon as he finished speaking, everyone suddenly exclaimed.

"He moved, Lu Yu moved!"

They saw Lu Yu continue forward after a short rest, entering the eighteenth level.

This was the farthest level he had reached before, where he had been defeated.

However, it seemed that the strength of the guardian monster on the eighteenth level was nothing special.

With a broader perspective, problems naturally become much simpler.

Having just recovered his strength, he was in full condition and killed the guardian monster with just two moves.

"Did I see it wrong? How did he pass the level so easily?"

"He passed the level? How is that possible! Did something go wrong?"

"Lu Yu actually passed the eighteenth level so effortlessly? And he seems to be at ease."

The astonished crowd discussed while looking at Yi Zhong beside them.

He had just boasted that Lu Yu couldn't pass the eighteenth level, but he solved the battle in just two moves.

A real slap in the face!

"Hmph, I suppose he studied this level for a long time and found the weakness of the monster, which made it seem easy. But on the next level, he hasn't even seen the monster before, so he's probably done for."

Yi Zhong refused to admit his judgment was wrong and continued to stubbornly argue.

Upon hearing this, many people agreed.

Lu Yu had been stopped at the eighteenth level last time, and this time he only participated in the trial at the last moment. It was probably to study how to deal with the monster on the eighteenth level.

No matter how strong the monster was, it wasn't strong enough to be unbeatable. It was possible to find the right method and defeat it in just two moves.

So Yi Zhong's statement gained the agreement of many people.

Only the old man in charge of guarding the trial grounds shook his head gently.

While others thought that Lu Yu had passed the level after thoroughly studying it, in reality, the two moves he just made were nothing fancy.

It was purely a victory through strength.

It was just that Yi Zhong and the others had a narrow perspective, otherwise they wouldn't have said such things.

It had been a long time since they had seen such a talented young person.

Lu Yu was unaware of the evaluations Yi Zhong and the others had of him. If he knew, he would probably just smirk and then defeat them even faster.

After passing the eighteenth level, Lu Yu finally stepped into the nineteenth level.

This was a level he had never set foot in before, so after entering the level, he did not rush forward.

Standing at the edge, he waited for the surrounding mist to dissipate, and Lu Yu was slightly surprised.

In the previous levels, there were monsters guarding, but the nineteenth level seemed to be different.

There was not a single monster in the entire nineteenth level, only a plant over two feet tall in the center.

At the top of the plant, there was a small red flower with six petals, and nothing else.
