Please, I Really Didn't Want To Fall in Love With My Master!

Chapter 54: Climb the Cloud Stairway, Step on the Immortal Path!

【The trial begins now!】

The words dispersed, and everyone regained their mobility. However, no one made a move.

Who knew if there was a trap in front of them, or if there was a sneak attack from behind?

Everyone was on guard against each other, and no one dared take the first step.

"A group of rats." Yue Jianli snorted coldly. She took the lead to ascend the steps.

The crowd blushed in embarrassment.

When they saw that someone had set the precedent, they followed suit.

Li Ran was the last one on the stairway.

As soon as he stepped on the stairway, he slightly frowned. He felt pressure down on him. The higher he climbed, the stronger the pressure was, making it impossible for him to advance at full speed.

"I see." Li Ran looked at the floating palace.

There were over a thousand steps, how terrifying would the pressure be at the very end?

"Then there's no need to worry." Li Ran held his hands behind his back and walked one step at a time. It was as if he was on a hiking trip.

Now, everything has become useless.

He understood that only the strongest could reach the end.

However, the others did not think so.

One by one, they erupted with qi and climbed upward under pressure. None of them wanted to fall behind.

Boom!

An ear-piercing explosion rang out accompanied by a cry!

"Song Qingsong, you’re a righteous path cultivator, yet you dared to launch a sneak attack!"

Song Qingsong sneered, "You moved too slowly. It's better to go home and rest!"

Then, he sent the other party down the steps. This place had already been sealed, prohibiting all flying abilities. That person could only howl and fall down.

Then, he was wrapped in white light and teleported out of the secret realm. When the crowd saw this, they immediately shivered.

"Song Qingsong, as the Righteous path, how could you do such a thing?!"

"We only called you Senior Brother Song because we respected you. We didn't expect you to act so lowly!"

"You're truly embarrassing the Supreme Dao Palace!"

"Aren't you afraid that we'll expose your actions?"

The geniuses all stood on the high ground as they all accused Song Qingsong.

Song Qingsong snorted. "Stop pretending! I don't believe that you don't want to do the same too!”

"If I don't want to be eliminated, I'll have to find a way to eliminate others!”

"Besides, you won't die even if you were to fall down the stairs. You'll just be kicked out of the secret realm. Why are you being so pretentious?" After speaking his part, he continued climbing up.

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

"What he said… makes sense."

A moment later…

Boom boom boom boom!

Fighting techniques rolled, the flames were scorching everywhere.

"Surnamed Liu, I used to see you as my brother, but you dared to attack me!"

"Who would attack me? If you have the guts, fight with me!"

"F*ck, which of you threw a banana peel on the ground?"

"I'll wait for you outside. I'm not done with you!"

A fight broke out on the stairway. The stairs became abnormally noisy. Li Ran shook his head disdainfully at this sight.

This was the righteous path cultivators?

He finally understood why Leng Wuyan would rather be a devil…

"Excuse me." Li Ran's voice rang out. The geniuses who were kicking each other came to an abrupt stop.

Everyone stopped and opened a path in unison. Li Ran walked up slowly with his hands behind his back.

Just a few steps later, a fight broke out behind him once again, as the people bombarded each other with their abilities.

They knew very well that there were only three winners of the trial.

They knew that the first two winners were undoubtedly Li Ran and Yue Jianli.

What they wanted to snatch was the final spot. Therefore, no one dared to touch Li Ran.

Li Ran was quiet as he climbed up step by step. Before long, he met Song Qingsong, who was sweating profusely.

They had already reached the second half of the stairway, and the pressure that was emanating was extremely great. Even Golden Core Realm cultivators would have great difficulty taking every step.

When Song Qingsong saw Li Ran, he immediately shivered.

"It's over, why is this devil behind me? You can't just beat me down!" He swallowed his saliva and moved to the side to give way. He stretched out his hand and said, "Please…"

Li Ran walked past him without any intention of making a move.

Huu~

Song Qingsong heaved a sigh of relief as his heart fell to the ground.

Although he didn't know why Li Ran had let him go, his advancement was definitely secured!

Li Ran continued to climb the steps. He felt that the pressure on his body was getting heavier and heavier. He had to use his full strength to resist.

Especially after reaching the last ten steps, it was as if the entire world was pressing down on him, and every fiber of his bone and muscle was screaming.

Li Ran took a step forward.

Boom!

There seemed to be a clanking sound in his ear, shaking him to the point that his soul became unstable.

Another step.

His muscles were bulging, his veins were bulging, and his joints were exploding.

The more he walked forward, the more pressure he felt, and his figure became even more hunched. When he stepped onto the second last step, Li Ran felt that he was seeing stars. His soul seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and he almost couldn't standstill.

White smoke emitted from his body. This was a sign that his qi had reached its limit.

Yue Jianli was right beside him. She was similarly pressed to the ground, her face drenched in sweat.

"These steps had their own set of principal. The stronger the person's cultivation, the greater the pressure they would face…"

Yue Jianli gritted her teeth. “I'm afraid I won't be able to climb this last step!”
