Boarding Life

Chapter 740

Wenren Xiaoxian didn’t mind, her red lips slightly parted, "I’m just curious, what kind of person is this martial arts district’s top genius who defeated Zhang Quanhe!"

Then, her gaze fell on Qin Qi, who was still attempting to climb. Her beautiful eyes were deep, and it was unclear what she was pondering.

"I wonder if he can accomplish what I couldn’t," Wenren Xiaoxian bit her red lip lightly.

Meanwhile, Qin Qi continued to climb step by step.

At this moment, beads of sweat were already starting to appear on his forehead.

Honestly, at the six hundred-meter mark, even he could vaguely feel some pressure.

But fortunately, this pressure was still bearable; at most, it made his legs feel as if they were filled with lead, not enough to completely halt his movements.

Thus, step by step!

Six hundred meters, reaching seven hundred meters!

Then, seven hundred ten meters!

Seven hundred twenty meters!

Every step upward!

To everyone present, it was incredibly astonishing!

Especially to the members of the Holy Maiden Association, who were caught in a tempest of emotions.

"How is this possible!"

"Senior Sister Wenren cultivated the technique of the Holy Maiden Association, which enabled her to reach the eight hundred-meter mark, but how does he manage it?"

Xue Yun comforted, "Don’t worry, this guy hasn’t reached the eight hundred-meter mark yet. The higher he climbs, the more pressure he’ll face!"

"Previously, Senior Sister was stuck at the eight hundred-meter mark and couldn’t advance further. How could this guy possibly achieve it!"

Only then did the members of the Holy Maiden Association feel somewhat reassured.

However, looking at Qin Qi’s steps, which hadn’t stopped, each of them still felt their hearts in their throats.

It’s known that the treasures within this treasury have yet to be claimed by anyone!

If an outsider were to take them first, it would be a huge joke.

Despite these words, their gaze remained on Qin Qi’s steps, which hadn’t halted.

Even though his speed had slowed significantly, the distance upward continued to accumulate.

Finally.

Seven hundred fifty meters!

"Phew..."

Qin Qi frowned, "It seems problematic; judging by the True Qi within me, I can probably only sustain up to eight hundred fifty meters."

"Climbing any further, my True Qi will find it difficult to withstand the relentless gravitational pressure!"

Being so close, he naturally couldn’t give up.

Qin Qi climbed with heavy steps, taking about ten minutes to reach around the eight hundred-meter mark.

"Good lad!" Wan Hao laughed heartily, "He managed to break Wenren Xiaoxian’s record, that’s a loud slap in the face for the Holy Maiden Association!"

Wan Huarou blinked, "Dad, hasn’t he broken Wenren Xiaoxian’s record yet?"

Wan Hao stroked his chin, "You must know, the cultivation technique of the Holy Maiden Association has unique effects against these gravitational forces."

"Qin Qi didn’t cultivate the Holy Maiden Association’s technique, yet he reached the level they achieved, which already proves he’s stronger than Wenren Xiaoxian."

"The members of the Holy Maiden Association have always been proud and aloof, reluctant to associate with the outside world. They find others incompatible with them. Admitting someone else’s excellence is not their strong suit!"

Everything was just as Wan Hao said.

At this moment, the expressions of the Holy Maiden Association’s members had undergone a dramatic change.

"How can this be!"

"Eight hundred meters, he really broke Senior Sister’s record."

"His cultivation is even slightly lesser than Senior Sister, could his strength really be above hers?"

Even though they were unwilling to admit it, the hard truth was right in front of them.

At this moment, they were unable to say any words of doubt; they could only hope Qin Qi would stop and not climb any further.

Eight hundred meters was enough to make a name for himself; it wasn’t worth it!

However, Qin Qi’s steps still didn’t stop.

He proceeded to take another step upwards.

Eight hundred one meters!

He broke Wenren Xiaoxian’s record.

The expressions of the Holy Maiden Association’s members were indescribably vivid!

Yet, this was not the end.

Soon, eight hundred two meters, eight hundred three meters!

Upon seeing this, Wenren Xiaoxian leapt into the air, directly stepping onto the staircase of Shi Chongfeng in front of everyone’s eyes.

"Oh? Wenren Xiaoxian couldn’t sit still."

"It seems that seeing Qin Qi break her record, she can’t bear it. The members of the Holy Maiden Association are the most proud; how can they tolerate their record being broken?"

The expressions of the Holy Maiden Association’s members were already extremely unpleasant.

"What’s Senior Sister doing."

"Her eight hundred-meter record was only broken half a month ago. Furthermore, the gravitational force increases every fifty meters."

"Unable to proceed means absolutely unable to proceed. Could Senior Sister’s mind be disturbed by Qin Qi?"

Xue Yun knew the situation had become quite dire and could only look towards the manor, seeking help from the mysterious head.

After all, the matter had escalated to such a degree that it was utterly out of control!

The head naturally understood Xue Yun’s concern and responded, "It’s truly unexpected that this kid is so formidable. I observed from a distance earlier, and his True Qi is incredibly abundant, even stronger than Xiaoxian, who’s reached the half-step Foundation Establishment Stage!"

"The only ones who could surely suppress him would be those who have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Upon hearing this, Xue Yun widened her eyes.

How abundant was his True Qi?

"However, you needn’t worry; though the matter has escalated, as long as he doesn’t reach the top, all will be well! The leader’s voice came again.

Xue Yun nodded lightly.

Yet, despite receiving reassurance from the leader, the heavy sense of unease in her heart only grew stronger.

Can Qin Qi truly not reach the top?

With time passing.

Qin Qi stopped at the eight hundred fifty-meter mark.

At this point, even Qin Qi found it arduous, "Phew... eight hundred fifty meters, it seems that I’m nearing the limit. Even if I try harder to climb further, I can only raise a few meters; it’s insignificant!"

"Could it be, this is where it ends?"

Looking at the final peak, which was not too far from him.

Qin Qi’s heart chilled.

Though there was an aspect of being manipulated by the Holy Maiden Association’s head, a promise is a promise.

If he missed this opportunity and sought another chance with the Holy Maiden Association to meet Wu Shuangshuang, it was probable that these people wouldn’t even give him the opportunity.

"No, I must reach the top!"

"Surely there’s another way!"

Suddenly, his gaze fixed on the two stone lions at the peak, and a light flashed in his mind.

"I’ve got it!"

Qin Qi waved a grand hand, his Celestial Spirit True Qi manifesting, transforming into tangible golden hands.

These golden hands, under Qin Qi’s intense control, extended seamlessly to the stone lions one hundred fifty meters above!
