Chapter 1295 The Slap Comes Too Fast

Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295: The Slap Comes Too Fast… Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295: The Slap Comes Too Fast… Inside the Refining Sky Tower, everyone was immersed in their cultivation, their faces all flushed red, and for most of them, their clothes had even been burnt off, exposing their red-burned bodies.

However, only Blackie was like a freak, unaffected, not even sweating a single drop, unhurriedly walking downwards.

Yet, the Refining Sky Tower has its merits.

The strand of Flame Origin power was capable of tempering Blackie’s physical body down to the minutest details in every part of his body, deeply training even small chunks of muscle fibers!

At the same time, the first layer of flame patterns of the Eternal Demon Body also could be strengthened.

Yet, on this second layer, it still wasn’t very apparent, he could only continue downward.

With each layer descended, the air’s crimson fire waves became increasingly thick.

At the same time, with each lower level, the number of cultivators around began to decrease sharply.

By the time he reached the tenth layer, there were only about eighty-some people left compared to the hundreds on the first layer.

One could imagine, to what degree one had to reach to advance to the ninetieth-ninth layer.

However, this still had no significant effect on Blackie.

When he came to the twentieth layer,

there were only roughly forty people left here.

When the others here, in their spare moments, saw Blackie continue forward with a calm expression, they were all slightly stupefied.

“Is this person from the academy? He shows no reaction even on the twentieth layer; he must be from the inner courtyard with a rank of either ‘Xuan’ or even ‘Di’, right?”

“That shouldn’t be right, whether it’s someone from the ‘Xuan’ or ‘Di’ ranked courtyards, they should have been seen at least occasionally; it’s not possible to have no impression of them.”

“Could it be a ‘Tian’ ranked elder brother? But everyone in the ‘Tian’ rank has almost shown their face too!”

The crowd watched Blackie, puzzled and astonished. Only when he entered the next layer and disappeared from their view did they stop discussing and returned to their own cultivation.

The outdoor stone tablet only recorded the top thirty ranks.

Currently, the thirtieth position was held by a student from the inner courtyard ranked ‘Tian’ number twenty, whose cultivation had reached the Intermediate Stage Divine Master Realm.

The record was on the forty-first layer.

Outside, inner courtyard disciples, as well as some from the outer courtyards, were gathered around the Refining Sky Tower. However, a small group was also gathered in front of the ranking stone tablet.

Although they knew that those specially admitted students couldn’t reach the top thirty in their first entry, they would still stop to curiously glance whenever they passed by.

“What are those people still looking at the ranking stone tablet for? Even if someone truly has the strength, it’s impossible to enter the top thirty on their first attempt, right? You know, the thirtieth rank has already reached the forty-first layer.”

“However, that body cultivator does seem to really have some strength, to be able to withstand an hour on his first direct entry into the Refining Sky Tower.”

“I think he must be reaching his limit now. He’ll probably come out soon.”

These people were standing in groups within the crowd as they spoke.

And they spoke very loudly, as if deliberately making sure everyone could hear them.

Sure enough, within these conversations, someone snorted coldly, “These people must have been specially recruited by the First Elder, if we’re talking about the First Elder being so biased, then the position of vice dean might not even be his turn!”

“Shh! We should discuss this privately, not loudly in public. Aren’t you afraid of being overheard by the elders?”

In the shadows, a man and a woman sat on the ground facing a small wooden table, the fragrance of tea wafting from the gaps in the cup lids.

The woman exclaimed angrily, “His heart deserves punishment! Spreading such words at the crucial moment for the vice dean vacancy competition is not good for the First Elder!”

“The Second Elder would actually do such a thing, has he no shame or the pride of a strong person?”

The woman was almost on the verge of calling him despicable…

The man chuckled, took a leisurely sip of his tea, and said, “The Second Elder probably wouldn’t personally stoop to do such shameless deeds, it must be the acts of his disciples below him.”

Now, Mixed Spirit Academy had a vacancy for a vice dean, and the First Elder and the Second Elder were competitors.

The differences in their strength and renown were not significant.

Therefore, such a petty scheme to smear someone’s reputation could very well be the last straw that breaks the camel’s back.

The woman frowned and said, “Could it be He Xiangwang? No, that can’t be right, he should be challenging the eighty-eighth floor of the Refining Sky Tower now…”

At this point, the woman suddenly paused and said, “Could it be that He Xiangwang ordered his subordinates to do it? How did Brother Tan find out?”

Tan Zongzhao couldn’t help but chuckle and tapped the woman, saying, “You should sometimes think more, don’t immerse yourself in sparring with others all the time.”

“Who is one of He Xiangwang’s followers? Liang Qing from Courtyard No. 5, right? And Liang Qing just happened to intercept Brother Black and the others at Courtyard No. 3 today. These traces are too obvious, an observant person just needs to think carefully to understand the connections. However…”

As he spoke, Tan Zongzhao’s eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a dangerous glint.

“The Second Elder must also be aware of this situation, and since he let it happen, that means the Second Elder also approves of their actions…”

The woman was slightly startled and asked, “What should we do then? Should we intervene?”

However, Tan Zongzhao shook his head, looked toward the direction of the Refining Sky Tower and smiled, “No need, such petty tricks ultimately won’t stand… Moreover, for such tricks to succeed, it assumes that their actual talent and strength are very weak, which would mean I misjudged them.”

However, the woman expressed her doubts, “Although they lasted an hour without adapting to the periphery, which is already an exceptional talent, under such criticisms, their faults could be overly magnified. Just enduring an hour isn’t enough, perhaps reaching your record back then would be necessary.”

Tan Zongzhao, too, had endured for two days in the Refining Sky Tower without adapting to the periphery and had reached the thirty-first floor.

This record had not been broken for a long time.

It could be said to be unprecedented and unmatched.

It was a pity that Tan Zongzhao did not continue to challenge the Refining Sky Tower; otherwise, the title of first place might not have gone to He Xiangwang.

“They will be fine,” Tan Zongzhao said confidently, his smile brimming with self-assurance. “They will most likely not be far off from me.”

The woman also laughed brightly, “You think so highly of him, I can’t help but feel tempted to spar with him!”

Upon hearing this, Tan Zongzhao laughed and said, “The two of you do have compatible temperaments; Brother Black is also a battle maniac.”

Just then, Tan Zongzhao seemed to have received a message.

The woman also received one at the same moment, and she cautiously glanced at Tan Zongzhao.

Tan Zongzhao’s expression was a mix of amusement and embarrassment.

“This… the difference is too huge…”

He had just boasted that Blackie should be close to his capability, but then, right after he finished speaking, he was contradicted…
