As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall was in an uproar.
No one spoke.
Their hearts were extrely shocked.
In fact, Empress Ziwei had her own selfish motives; she did this rely to allow Fang Yu to ascend to power legitimately. If he could overco the hundred levels of restriction, then he could directly assu the position of a Hall Master of the Five Great Divine Palaces. As for absorbing the power of the Divine Statue and becoming one of her close aides, it was just a matter of ti.
If he couldn’t get past the hundred levels of restriction, it would simply an that his abilities were still not sufficient to climb to such a high position imdiately.
He could only progress slowly.
In the hall, there was silence.
At this mont, the maid Xia’er said, "Ladies and gentlen, feel free to speak your minds. Today... Her Majesty, the Empress, will be exceptionally rciful. Pardon all your offenses!"
Everyone was shocked.
That’s when they understood why maid Xia’er dared to ntion the Dragon Emperor.
Still...
Even so, they did not dare to ntion the Dragon Emperor lightly. After all, no one knew whether Empress Ziwei would hold a grudge after this day.
One should never be careless with their words.
This was the rule they followed to survive and thrive to this day.
Although they could not ntion the Dragon Emperor, they could still talk about the young man who was just about to step into the Tiandu Hall.
"I agree with Her Majesty’s decision... Being able to overco fifty levels of restriction shows that his strength is at least above the Circulation Heaven Position..."
The hundred levels of restriction tested one’s comprehension and ntal strength.
However, comprehension and ntal strength often determine a person’s ultimate Cultivation limit.
Without good comprehension, how could one possibly achieve the Supre Heavenly Rank?
"I also agree with Her Majesty’s decision... However, I think that this Mr. Fang, being able to step into thirty levels of the restriction is already comndable. It’s true that anyone who can enter the fifty levels is at least at the Circulation Heaven Position, but... not all at the Circulation Heaven Position can enter the fifty levels of the restriction! I’m willing to bet on it!"
"I’m also willing to bet that he will only reach the thirty levels of restriction."
"Thirty levels is already quite a lot... After all, he is just a Doctor. I’ve heard that he is also a formidable Cultivator, with formidable martial skills. Quite a few from the Seventy-two Sects have fallen at his hands. I estimate his strength should be around the Circulation Heaven Level."
"The Circulation Heaven Level, you’re really overestimating him. A Grandmaster Level Saint Rank Doctor at the Circulation Heaven Level... How is that possible? If he managed to defeat the Seventy-two Sects, he must have had the help of a master. So ti ago, I dispatched people to investigate the Fang Family, and found a highly mysterious Array set up around the Fang Family. Anyone capable of setting up an Array of the Fifth Layer has to be at least at a Grandmaster Level Array Master. With an Array Master’s help, it’s no surprise that the Seventy-two Sects were caught off guard."
"That makes a lot of sense. However, I bet he can overco forty levels of the restriction. After all, being able to reach the level of a Saint Rank Doctor shows extrely high comprehension. But the subsequent restrictions will require so strength. So, I bet he can clear forty levels."
Everyone had their say.
Oddly, no one believed Fang Yu could overco fifty levels of the restriction.
These were not ordinary restrictions.
It is said that those who could overco a hundred levels of restrictions are all experts of the Supre Heavenly Rank.
This test is peculiar, testing one’s comprehensive abilities intensely.
Even now, many at the Circulation Heaven Position and Supre Heavenly Rank among the Five Great Divine Palaces have tried their hand at it; most fell before the seventy levels of restriction, and no one has ever surpassed the hundred levels.
Empress Ziwei provides everyone with the opportunity to try.
One, to establish authority, showing that Tiandu Hall is inviolable.
Two, to select talents according to the levels of restriction one can overco.
Those who manage to surpass eighty levels of restriction in the Five Great Divine Palaces are confird as strong Supre Heavenly Rank experts... becoming the right-hand n of the Empress.
Who wouldn’t want to ascend to high positions in one go?
Every day, people co to test these restrictions.
Sadly...
No one has been able to break through.
...
The last ti there was chaos within Tiandu Mountain.
More than fifty individuals at the Supre Heavenly Rank didn’t even have the chance to touch the hundred levels of restriction, let alone enter the Tiandu Hall.
From this, one can see how secure Tiandu Hall is.
"Keep calm. Since everyone has expressed their views, the next step is to see if Mr. Fang can overco the hundred levels of restriction."
"Well then, let us wait and see!"
For a ti, the entire Great Hall fell silent.
They would not go to the scene personally; after all, as ministers of the Tiandu Mountain, it would seem sowhat beneath them to rush to watch. It was they only needed soone to report back.
Thus, everyone waited quietly.
Including Empress Ziwei.
"Overcoming a hundred levels of restriction, even if he succeeds, it would take at least half an hour... Let’s take our ti, there’s no rush."
"It won’t take half an hour, just a quarter of an hour... Don’t forget, he can’t surpass fifty levels of restriction..."
The crowd nodded their heads.
A quarter of an hour was worth the wait.
...
anwhile.
Fang Yu looked up at the hundred steps.
These steps were vast, each one like a rectangular giant bed... Each step was carved with dense and intricate runes. All these were restriction runes.
He was well aware of these runes.
Once, when the Dragon Emperor stepped through these hundred levels of restriction, he specifically studied the runes above.
Because of this, he beca an Array Master.
In fact...
Tiandu Mountain, along with the buildings of the Five Great Divine Palaces, are all inherited from the Ancient Tis.
To this day, no one has fully figured out the mysteries of these buildings.
They harbor too many secrets.
Looking at the hundred levels of restriction in the active state, Fang Yu couldn’t help but smile lightly: "Testing ?"
Back then, the ti he took to step through the hundred levels of restriction was just like normal walking.
His speed and ti, up to now, remain unmatched.
Now.
Being very clear about the chanisms and principles of the restriction, and even quite clear about the thods and powers inside.
How could Fang Yu not be confident in overcoming the hundred levels of restriction?
With this in mind, Fang Yu lightly said, "Ah, there’s really no challenge at all."
Saying this, Fang Yu stepped onto the steps with his hands behind his back.
One step, two steps.
One level, two levels.
His speed did not slow down!
Three steps, four steps.
Three levels, four levels.
...
Ten levels, eleven levels.
His speed still maintained the original.
The guard watching all this in front of the Tiandu Hall, with wide eyes, exclaid in amazent, "How is this possible?"
This hundred levels of restriction, like a flood on a mountain.
When the flood bursts down, it has great power and impact.
However...
Fang Yu seed completely unaffected as he stepped onto the stairs, approaching the Tiandu Hall step by step.
Without any impact at all.
In a blink of an eye—
Fang Yu reached the thirtieth step.
The guard’s face changed dramatically, and he imdiately ran towards the Great Hall to report the first phase results—
"Ladies and gentlen, Mr. Fang has reached the front of the thirtieth level of restriction, taking... three minutes."
"What!?"
"How is that possible?"
The crowd was astounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Keep calm, continue observing and report back imdiately!" Empress Ziwei did not show much surprise, since her expectation for Fang Yu was to at least reach fifty levels.
