Chapter 25: Top Three Globally (Part 2)
Method 。Xu Jingming, after sparring with his master, resumed his daily routine of three essential training methods. 。"Puff puff puff..." In the extreme cold, Xu Jingming's mental willpower was incre...Towering, jagged peaks surrounded the valley on both sides, creating this tranquil haven seemingly untouched by the outside world. Xu Jingming held a long spear in his hand, picked up a fist-sized stone from the grass with practiced ease, and hurled it towards the distant peak with force.
Whoosh!
The stone, like a cannonball, instantly flew out hundreds of meters, shooting into a mountain peak in the distance. It collided with the mountain wall with a deafening boom, blasting a pit half a zhang wide, sending stones flying everywhere.
Originally, many mountain peaks around were still echoing with the calls of monkeys. However, with this deafening roar, all the monkey calls ceased.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
One after another, figures leaped from the peaks of various mountains, drawing arcs across the sky. Some landed on towering trees, while others touched down on the grassy plains. Over a dozen monkeys appeared, all glaring at Xu Jingming with hostility.
“We’re all old friends, I’ll make my move quickly.” Xu Jingming moved his body and shot out like a ray of light, already at full speed.
More than ten monkeys, each holding a dark stick, saw Xu Jingming charging towards them. Their fur bristled instinctively, and they surrounded him, wanting to use their numbers to overpower him.
"Pff."
A crimson figure flashed, a monkey's chest was pierced. Xu Jingming had already moved past, a gunshot piercing the neck of another monkey!
At first sight, he could kill two monkeys.
Xu Jingming fully displayed the speed of the Huahong Gun Technique. His speed far surpassed that of these ordinary monkeys, and his gun technique was terrifyingly sharp. The monkeys' wielding of the basic stick techniques couldn't withstand it at all; one by one, they fell down.
"Awooo~~~" The remaining monkeys let out a chorus of mournful cries, their voices laced with both anger and fear.
"The virtual opponents are surprisingly intelligent." Xu Jingming muttered to himself. No matter how many times he challenged the fourth floor of the Starry Sky Tower, it was always these apes and that ape king. At first, when he heard their cries, he felt pity for them.
Then, get used to it!
After being killed, it turns into an illusion and reappears in the next level.
"Poof poof poof..." Wherever Xu Jingming passed, the monkeys fell one after another, turning into illusions.
When the reddish-haired ape king appeared, he couldn't help but feel anger at the sight. He roared in fury. At the sound of the roar, the remaining apes immediately backed away one by one, hiding far away.
"Why don't you just come out sooner" Xu Jingming looked at the Monkey King, also becoming more serious.
"Boom."
The Monkey King moved, transforming into a crimson figure and charging towards Xu Jingming. Xu Jingming turned into a blurry dark red figure, instantly meeting him head-on. His speed seemed to have the upper hand.
Clash of the titans!
The King Kong's fighting style with his staff is powerful and heavy, yet also flexible and versatile.
Xu Jingming's spear is fast!
"Fast... natural kinetic energy is terrifying! Xu Jingming's own kinetic energy and that of his spear were perfectly unified. Every strike put immense pressure on the King Monkey. It was forced to use its agility, dodging rapidly with each change in direction, then counterattacking!"
Xu Jingming is attacking, attacking, and attacking again! He doesn't give King Ape any chance to breathe!
"Grr...grrr..." The Monkey King let out an angry growl, his eyes blazing with fury.
Xu Jingming, however, became even more ferocious in his attacks, and that was precisely the nature of his Huí Hóng Qiang Fa! He abandoned defense on many fronts, purely using his own offense to overwhelm the enemy. If the opponent could hold their ground and counterattack… then he would most likely be defeated!
Possession is nine-tenths of the law.
Xu Jingming's thirty-first shot aimed at the Monkey King's arm, drawing a wound across his left arm. Xu Jingming's eyes lit up, and he immediately advanced with another even more ferocious attack.
Shot after shot, non-stop.
The injured King of Apes was somewhat panicked; his spear technique was noticeably weaker, lacking in power. He barely managed to block two shots with all his might, but the thirty-fourth shot sliced open a large wound on his abdomen again. Wounded in the abdomen, he instantly lost a significant amount of strength throughout his entire body!
The thirty-fifth shot, the Monkey King strained to hold his staff before his chest, but Xu Jingming’s spear, like a water dragon, deflected the Monkey King's staff and pierced into his chest.
The Monkey King is incredibly resilient, refusing to die! Even with his chest pierced, he swung his staff, aiming a blow at Xu Jingming's head.
"Rip!"
The spear piercing the monkey king's chest swung horizontally, cleaving through half his chest and severing his heart and lungs. The mighty blow the monkey king had unleashed faltered, his eyes dimmed, and his form grew ethereal.
Xu Jingming put away his gun, watching the Monkey King disappear.
Thirty-six consecutive strikes! Slay the Monkey King!
"It's done." Xu Jingming let out a breath of relief.
"The fourth layer is cleared, ready to enter the fifth layer of Starry Tower." The voice sounded in his ear, Xu Jingming's armor and weapons became clean and spotless, and his physical strength also returned to its peak.
"Let's see who the opponent on the fifth floor is," Xu Jingming thought.
The scene before my eyes shifted, and I was already on the fifth floor.
This is a beach, on which a figure lies comfortably in a chair, basking in the sun. There is also a glass of juice by his side. The figure is a very handsome young man.
"Human" Xu Jingming was surprised.
A very handsome human, even from the side you could tell his face was incredibly handsome. When he turned to look at Xu Jingming, his eyes caused Xu Jingming's heart to skip a beat involuntarily.
A human male youth, unexpectedly charming
"What's that" Xu Jingming saw it, the young man lying there, but with a furry tail. His ears and face actually had very faint fur, and his eyebrows were silver.
The youth with silver eyebrows glanced at Xu Jingming, tossing the pebbles he was playing with in his left hand carelessly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!
There were five pebbles in total, moving faster than Xu Jingming could imagine. Before Xu Jingming could react, the five pebbles had already passed through his body, making his body seem illusory.
Was eliminated from the fifth floor of the Starry Tower!
"Pebbles, so fast that I couldn't even react" Xu Jingming muttered in surprise.
Xu Jingming came out of the Starry Sky Tower and also saw the names on the second scroll of the Starry Sky Ranking.
Starlight Ranking (Fourth Layer) —
World Number One: Liu Hai (China)
Global second: Tiana * Xire (Povana)
Global third: Xu Jingming (Xia Kingdom)
"Hmm." Xu Jingming returned to his personal space training ground, Li Miaomiao was still waiting there.
"Jǐngmíng, I've seen it already." Lí Miǎomiào was even more excited than Xǔ Jǐngmíng. "You three, from start to finish, completed the Sky Tower in less than three hours. By the way, what is on the fifth floor of the Sky Tower I've always been curious."
"The fifth layer" Xu Jingming's expression was complex. "It's a person, but not a normal human."
"Person" Li Miaomiao questioned.
The first layer is a pack of wolves, the second layer is a group of bears, the third layer is a group of tigers, the fourth layer is a group of intelligent monkeys, and the fifth layer is humans
"And maybe the fifth layer, there's just one person." Xu Jingming guessed. "He also has a fluffy tail and very faint fuzz on his face. Forget it, you can just watch the video!"
Saying that, Xu Jingming played the video of his climb to the fifth floor of the Starry Sky Tower. Of course, he didn't play the battle scenes - he was beaten too badly.
"Wow!" Li Miaomiao's eyes lit up, "So handsome!"
"I don't know, maybe the virtual world just wanted to make the opponents look this good." Xu Jingming was helpless. He had to admit that when he saw this man, he felt a sudden flutter in his heart. It was simply the most handsome person he had ever seen, both in real life and online! What made it so shocking was the eyes, they were mesmerizing with their mental will!"
Li Miao immediately coaxed, "Of course, in my heart, Jingming, you are more handsome than him."
"Don't coddle me, I know myself well." Xu Jingming shook his head.
……
Global media has gone crazy, what day is it today
For over two hours, Liu Hai, Tia Yano*Xilei, and Xu Jingming consecutively cleared the fourth floor of the Starry Sky Tower! Each person completed it with an hour between each other, which made the whole world feel... Could they have planned this
"Three people broke through consecutively, this fourth layer is so easy"
"Wait and see, maybe there's a fourth person who got through."
"I now understand the strength of Liu Hai and Tia Yano Xire. They are on par with Xu Jingming. The three of them are at the same level."
"Perhaps another world-class master has emerged and passed the fourth layer!"
The world is watching.
The past always felt like the fourth floor of Starry Tower was out of reach, because not even a hundred people globally had cleared the third floor. But today Three people have consecutively cleared it. Will there be a fourth A fifth Or even more
The world is full of hidden talent, you never know.
People from all countries, even small ones, have aspirations.
"Such a small country as Bawan can produce a person like Tia Yanuo! Our Silla Kingdom is much larger, with tens of millions of people. Perhaps there are also peerless geniuses among us."
"Warriors, charge! Charge through the fourth layer of the Star Tower, Ura!"
The whole network seems to be celebrating a grand festival, with everyone discussing Li Hai, Tian Yao, and Xu Jingming. There is also anticipation for the arrival of the fourth and fifth individuals.red, petite young girl "Tatta," though in reality, Tatta was much older than anyone present. 。"I'm an eighth-order Starry Sky Life" Tarta pointed at the silver-haired man, dumbly laughing. "There are...
