Chapter 121 - This Was a True Genius
Chapter 121: This Was a True Genius
“He really cleared the 30th floor…”
When the name ‘unknown’ appeared on the 31st floor, there was a few seconds of silence outside the Trial Tower.
Everyone stared blankly at the message on the light screen.
“Unknown, 31st floor…”
The words ‘First Tower Climb’ were so bright and dazzling that they were speechless.
“Is this really not an advanced mage coming here under another pretense and playing with us?”
“I don’t believe it. Is this person cheating?”
“If cheating was possible, let’s see you try cheating. You have to stand straight even if you’re beaten. Is it that difficult to admit that someone else is stronger than you?”
“But he doesn’t even have a name. If this isn’t cheating, then what is?”
“That’s true. Otherwise, we could find out who this person is based on his name.”
“Pshh, it feels a little scary and a little eerie. Until now, we don’t even know who he is. It’s really strange.”
“Why don’t we ask the teachers? Maybe they know.”
“Alright, let’s go ask the teachers.”
But the answer they received was that even the teachers didn’t know.
That’s right, it wasn’t just the students, even the teachers present were shocked.
The person with the unknown name had climbed up to the 31st floor in one go.
Was this unknown a monster?!
This was one of the graduating students coming to cause trouble, right?
On the other hand, if you said that this was a senior student, then what did the words “First Tower Climb” mean?
The Trial Tower had been here since the beginning of the Academy.
It had never made a mistake over all these years.
How could such a strange situation suddenly appear today?
However, most of the people were immersed in cheering instead of feeling suspicious, because the First Tower Climb record of the Academy’s Trial Tower had been broken today!
“He’s too strong! This unknown person will be my idol from now on!”
“Please, he has been my idol for a long time, okay?”
“Who is he! I’m going to treat him to a good magic wheat wine tonight!”
“Who are you? So many people want to treat him, who do you think you are?”
“Then tell me who he is if you know! Don’t keep me in suspense!”
“I don’t know who he is, but he definitely isn’t from our batch. The names of the students in our batch are all on the screen. I wonder who this unknown person is.”
“Good God, he’s definitely a senior.”
“Awesome, awesome. No matter who he is, breaking the record is always awesome.”
“F*ck, the record has been broken just like that? !”
Right, only then did everyone realize, this person had already broken the challenge record set by Master Grimm.
On top of that, he was even more terrifying than Master Grimm.
In one go!
Thirty-one floors!
A height that made people despair.
There was not even a trace of blood on Orlando’s face.
This f*cking difference was simply too big.
And to think that he was just comparing himself to this unknown person.
Wasn’t he purely looking for trouble?
The corners of Orlando’s mouth curled up into a bitter smile.
At the exciting moment when everyone was looking forward to the appearance of this unknown person and finally figuring out his identity, countless love letters were already brewing in the girls’ hearts.
In the next second, under everyone’s gaze, the name ‘unknown’ began to climb rapidly again!
Thirty-second floor, thirty-third floor, thirty-fourth floor…
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
At the thirty-fifth floor, the name paused for a moment.
Then, the person broke through to the thirty-ninth floor before stopping his onward momentum.
Stunned.
Everyone was just stunned.
What was going on?
Was there a malfunction in the Trial Tower?!
This unknown had climbed up nine floors in one go again, nearing the 40th floor!
Shocking!
Absolute silence fell on the scene.
… . .
At this moment, in the Trial Tower, Eddie’s current state was much more relaxed than before.
The spiritual power and control brought about by advancing to tier 4 were far more superior to tier 3.
Eddie, who had officially stepped into the level of an intermediate mage, finally felt the crushing difference between levels.
It was a massacre.
At this moment, the Trial Tower had turned into a sea of flames.
Although all the magic wolves were made of magic elements, the scene was still unbearable to watch.
Without the worry of using too much spiritual power, Eddie crazily cast flame vortexes.
The flame vortexes, which were like small hurricanes, enveloped all the magic wolves inside.
Even the magic wolves with rare attributes were burned back to the Trial Tower’s most primitive structure under the continuous whirlpool of flames.
I heard that you can cast tier 3 spells instantaneously? Sorry but I can cast tier 4 spells instantaneously. My spells are one tier higher than you, victory is mine.
Other than the magic wolves on the 35th floor that dodged the attacks for some time due to being a little faster, the magic wolves on the rest of the floors could be wiped out with a mere skill, and he only had to wait for the floor to be cleared.
As for now?
The current Eddie wanted to try challenging the 40th floor!
He wanted to see if he could smoothly clear the floor under the siege of tier 4 magic wolves.
That’s right, there were hints for the upcoming trial.
Eddie could see what he was going to face in the next round.
From the side, it also reflected the high increase in difficulty.
Although Eddie had bulldozed his way from the 31st floor to the 39th floor with an extremely tyrannical method, he wasn’t sure whether he would be able to take on the siege of tier 4 magic wolves…
Even though Eddie’s current speed had already shocked many people, but he didn’t know this.
He just wanted to challenge himself.
He was done resting.
Eddie stood up and smoothed out every wrinkle on his magic robe.
His gaze fell on the door to the 40th floor, the light in his eyes burning.
Eddie’s fighting spirit was high. He licked his lips sinisterly and muttered to himself, “The 40th floor, I’m really looking forward to it…”
…
“He’s on the 40th floor…”
The surrounding students felt almost powerless.
“Even if he’s a high-ranked senior, this is too strong!”
“Each floor takes him less than five minutes!”
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone clear the 30th to 40th floors of the Trial Tower at a speed faster than the 20th to 30th floors…”
“Despair…”
Everyone was unable to predict how far Eddie could go.
Their previous judgments had been overturned by Eddie time and time again.
Geniuses were existences that broke the rules.
“He has already surpassed my highest score…”
Many people shook their heads with bitter smiles, among them were some high-ranked seniors.
Their highest scores had only reached the 38th to 39th floor.
Many of them stopped comparing themselves to the unknown person.
If it could be said that many still intended to compete with the unknown person when he had just cleared the 20th floor previously, the moment Eddie advanced to the 40th floor, most people had already lost interest in competing with him.
This was a monster! A monster!
What did they have that could compare against him?
Such a genius could not be judged and compared with common sense.
There was a very good saying: For the same test paper, you get 100 points because you can only get so many points, but a genius gets 100 points because the paper only has 100 points.
The two can not be compared at all.
What’s there to compare? Just look up in respect.
Many students lost their fighting spirit.
If you want, you can compete however you like, but this was no longer in the domain of mortals.
The students, who were considered geniuses in their hometowns, had lost their temper after the blows delivered by Eddie.
This was a true genius!
