Soon, many martial arts students like Liu Chuan and Lin Chunchi also stepped onto the Heaven-Ascending Ladder.
"Let try first."
Fu Kejun followed closely behind.
Zhang Lingfeng wasn’t idle either. He knew that only experintation could test the truth. Whether his 12.731 Spiritual Power was of any use would be known only when he ascended the Heaven-Ascending Ladder.
"Clang!"
One foot landed on the Heaven-Ascending Ladder.
Zhang Lingfeng imdiately felt a tightness around his ankle, as if his shoe sole was filled with water, feeling a pulling force.
The first stone step resonated with the elent of water.
"Clang!"
He stepped onto the second step.
Instantly, he felt a hot current at his feet, as if surrounded by flas, and the resonating elent was fire.
He continued to move upward.
Soon he felt a pulling force again, like tree vines entwining his legs, and the resonating elent was wood.
Moving up again.
The resonating elent was earth, and his legs felt as if they were sinking into a swamp.
Continuing upward.
The resonating elent was gold, and his legs suddenly felt much heavier as if filled with lead.
"This is the Gold Elent among the Five Elents."
Zhang Lingfeng thought to himself.
He had never encountered this force before.
Finally, he had the chance to feel its fluctuation on the Heaven-Ascending Ladder. With his 12.731 Spiritual Power, he clearly detected the energy fluctuation patterns from the Gold Elent.
In the strong telepathic sense, he seed to hear a response from the Gold Elent.
Zhang Lingfeng swore that without his Spiritual Power breaking through 10.0, he wouldn’t have heard this response.
He was secretly delighted.
Everyone said there were opportunities hidden on the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, and it turned out that these opportunities were not only about tempering spiritual power but also helping everyone resonate with more powers of heaven and earth.
"Whir!"
Suddenly, the sound of a blade resonated.
Liu Chuan, who had ascended the Heaven-Ascending Ladder before him, had reached the fiftieth step. He drew a long sword, walking step by step upward, wanting to resonate his skills with more powers of heaven and earth, making his skills transcend the Five Elents.
More people like him appeared.
It seed the energy grew stronger the higher they went, the fluctuation patterns clearer. Everyone drew weapons or released their spiritual realms and domains, using the Heaven-Ascending Ladder to refine skills and ntal realms.
Zhang Lingfeng stood on the fifth step, not moving hastily. He heard the response from the Gold Elent but couldn’t catch it right away to resonate with it, allowing this power to integrate with his spiritual realm.
He found that although the response was always there, it was too faint to catch without his Spiritual Power exceeding 10.0.
Seeing Liu Chuan and others releasing skill power fluctuations on the fiftieth step, Zhang Lingfeng realized that perhaps the response from the heavens grew stronger the higher one went.
So he moved to the sixth step.
The resonating power of heaven and earth turned to water. The seventh step turned to fire, the eighth to wood, the ninth to earth, and the tenth to gold.
And so the cycle repeated.
The higher he went, the stronger the resonating power beca, and Zhang Lingfeng heard more responses.
Finally, on the fifteenth step.
Zhang Lingfeng felt his feet lighten, the Gold Elent power enveloping them finally resonating with his spiritual realm, becoming part of his spiritual realm’s power.
His Spiritual Power could influence this power, minimizing the resistance it ford against him.
His Four Elents Realm transford into a Five Elents Realm, and his combat power within the Five Elents grew, finally breaking through 6000.0.
Looking again at Liu Chuan above, Zhang Lingfeng was confident that even without using ntal Telekinesis, he could stand a fight with Liu Chuan at this mont.
He stood on the fifteenth step, carefully sensing the changes in ntal energy fluctuations. Suddenly, upon integrating the Gold Elent power, Zhang Lingfeng felt his realm beco extrely heavy, like Mount Tai crushing down, feeling as if the enemy’s feet would be welded to the ground upon entering his realm.
Watching people ascend step by step, Zhang Lingfeng felt an unprecedented peace as if forgetting it was a competency evaluation.
In three days, reaching the hundredth step would pass the evaluation and advance to the fifth round. With his 12.731 Spiritual Power, Zhang Lingfeng was confident it wouldn’t be difficult.
At the sa ti, as soone who always pursued coasting along and wanted to gain Coasting Along Value, it was ti to follow the requirents of coasting along and complete this evaluation in the most comfortable way.
"Why did he stop on the fifteenth step?"
Being the only martial arts student from a Fourth-tier Province, Zhang Lingfeng was under intense observation in the monitor room.
Of course, the main observers were the agency leaders from Third and Fourth-tier Provinces.
"The Heaven-Ascending Ladder is a step into a new world, a different realm with each step. Zhang Lingfeng might be encountering a challenge."
Soone speculated.
"He can create miracles, representing a Fourth-tier Province and reaching the fourth round is already remarkable. We shouldn’t pressure him."
"That’s right, even if he ends up at the bottom, at least he experienced it."
"Zhang Lingfeng, we believe in you."
...
The agency leaders from the Fourth-tier Province did not doubt Zhang Lingfeng, despite his slow progress.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a scream was heard.
A martial arts student from a Third-tier Province, moving too fast, couldn’t withstand the resonating forces on the Heaven-Ascending Ladder and tumbled down.
He had to start from the first step again.
Witnessing this scene, everyone was even more hesitant to pressure Zhang Lingfeng.
