"Creak!"

Just as Xia Hengwu took a step forward, a sound akin to bones rubbing against each other rang out from within his body as his entire body caved in.

After which, he gritted his teeth and grit his teeth. Beside him, a look of astonishment gushed out from Dai Yue's eyes. When this astonishment appeared, Xia Hun Wu slowly straightened his body and resisted the violent Mental Energy pressure.

Stretching his back, Xia Hun Wu's gaze was fixed on the Mental Energy barrier within the light spots within the seventh level, and a vicious look appeared in his eyes. Master Cheng had said that if one wanted to reach the ninth level in a short period of time, one must enter the ninth level.

"I want to challenge the eighth level!"

When she saw the former looking at the eighth level, a voice was transmitted from beside her. Immediately, Dai Yue's pupils constricted as she shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "That's impossible!"

Indeed, it was impossible. The final step in the seventh floor contained a berserk Spirit pressure that stopped their advance, let alone the powerful suppression power within the seventh floor's Spirit barrier.

Although Dai Yue also wanted to enter the eighth level, reality told her that with her current strength, the chances of success were practically nil. Even she was in this state, let alone Xia Hun Wu.

"I've never stopped living in the heart of the Yellow River."

Xia Hun Wu lightly laughed and did not speak any further. His Mental Energy once again wrapped around his entire body as he took a step forward.

Boom!

At the same time as he took that step, the tsunami of Spiritual Energy pressure rose again. Xia Haimu's body also instantly knelt down on one knee. The instant his knee landed, a rumbling sound came from the ground. A crack had actually appeared on the ground.

A bitter smile appeared on Dai Yue's mouth as she looked at Xia Hun Wu who was immobilized by the Mental Energy pressure just like her. However, she did not laugh at him because she knew that if she were to take this step, she would end up like Xia Hun Wu.

"Give up. Next, you and I will see who can last longer in the seventh level." She was originally a person with a cold character and would not say anything much to begin with. Moreover, this boy was highly regarded by her teacher. However, she admired the determination that surged out from the former.

"This is a little difficult, but it won't be difficult for me. I'm definitely going to the eighth floor."

Being suppressed by the Mental Energy pressure, Xia Hun Wu chuckled lightly when he heard this. Then, his legs trembled as he stood up in an extremely slow manner in front of Dai Yue's beautiful eyes.

"Creak!"

Just as Xia Hun Wu stood up, Dai Yue, who was standing behind him, saw his originally somewhat white skin turn red at this moment. As he stood up, Dai Yue, who was standing behind him, saw his originally somewhat white skin, suddenly turn red as drops of blood dripped out of his pores.

"This fellow is probably crazy. He actually dared to take such a huge risk and enter the eighth level?" Dai Yue's beautiful eyes also revealed a trace of shock as she looked at the crazed appearance of Xia Hun Wu.

"Bam!"

Not long after she finished speaking, Xia Hengwu actually took another step forward. This time, the surging Mental Energy pressure directly pressed his entire body down to the ground.

"Puchi!"

A few streams of blood spurted out from his nostrils and the corners of his mouth.

After being suppressed by the Mental Energy pressure, Xia Hun Wu's body continued to tremble uncontrollably. His originally pitch black eyes were now completely bloodshot. He slowly turned his head to the front and felt the Mental Energy barrier so close to him. The bloodlust in his eyes was even more terrifying.

Then, under the terrified eyes of Dai Yue, his whole body trembled as he tried to stand up again.

"Bam!"

Xia Hengwu's body, which had just stood up, was once again crushed by the spiritual pressure. Blood spurted out from his body like a column of blood. At this moment, blood was dripping from his entire body. His appearance was extremely horrifying.

"There is no need for you to do this for teacher. You are not the only Spiritual Array Master in the Great Yan Empire." As she looked at Xia Hun Wu, who was covered in blood, Dai Yue took a deep breath and softly said. She could not understand why the boy in front of her was fighting to such an extent.

Rather than calling it a life or death struggle, it was more of a determination. That was because the only thing that Xia Hengwu could see in his eyes was the Mental Energy barrier in front of him. Although his current appearance looked as though he would collapse at any moment, the former's body was filled with a feeling of determination.

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

As he slowly straightened his body, a buzzing sound accompanied by a sharp pain spread in his mind. At the same time, his vision also started to become blurry. This was a sign that his body was at its limit.

"Buzz!"

Xia Hun Wu's vision became increasingly blurry. Just as his vision shifted from light to darkness, an extremely cold Spiritual Energy emitted out from his body and an icy-blue bead appeared in front of him, helping him to resist the massive Mental Energy pressure.

The instant the Ice Blue Pearl appeared, Xia Hun Wu felt a powerful Mental Energy spreading out from within his body, filling his entire aurasea.

The appearance of the icy blue bead greatly reduced the pressure on Xia Hengwu. Without hesitation, he took a step forward and stepped into the Mental Energy barrier under Dai Yue's astonished gaze.

Boom!

As Xia Hun Wu entered, the entire Mental Energy barrier erupted with a terrifying Mental Energy pressure. This pressure directly erupted at the point of light that led to the eighth level. Di Yue, who was nearby, was actually blown away by this Mental Energy pressure as a mouthful of blood gushed out from her throat.

Dai Yue's body landed on the ground in an extremely miserable manner. Soon after, something similar to a dagger appeared in her hand and was ruthlessly stabbed into the ground. Sparks flew in all directions as a screeching sound resounded throughout the empty tower.
