Chapter 215 - Part One: Clearing Levels

While Zack was fighting in level 4, The changes begin to happen in leader board ranking. Except Rank one, Rest of the rankings have changes from past five minutes. But no one from first batch exited so far. Many of the officials below tower thought soon it will change.

The other hand, Crimson Hall team sucked cold air. Their expression were unsightly seeing the unchanged top ranking. Seeing their friends uneasy expression, Ella couldn't help but say, " What are you guys worrying about? Not even ten minutes completed, Soon, I believe this speed will reduce."

Hearing that five of her friends nodded in affirmation, Especially Sallie, Earlier she was intrigued little bit in her heart. She thought that unknown person named Zack is little interesting. Now, seeing the record. She and her friend beginning to feel overwhelmed.

To broke icy atmosphere, she commented, "I believe that if Zack from unknown campus can do it with ease. I feel we are not worse than him, it's a matter of time before we set our own record." Listening to her words the atmosphere eased little but.

The other hand, Bradley thoughts of something interesting, So He said, " For now we can say he is strong. Look at all those fellows in leader board below him. Some of the belong to strong forces not lower than us. And their cultivation base also same us. But still they are taking time to clear it. They were little bit pale compare to number one person."

The other hand, Austin couldn't help but blurt out, "Then what do you think, how many level he can clear?"

Hearing that Bradley sighed helplessly. He don't want to make assumption. But still he said straightforwardly what's going on in his minds. He observed their reaction, he found all of them eager to listen to his answer. Realizing that he solemn said, "Looking at his clearing speed. I believe he didn't even spend much of his essence before defeating whatever challenge in front of him. So, I think he can cross level ten with ease."

Robb Williamson expression turned uneasy. But still he has confident in himself. But the little factor of unknown making them worry. He turned towards his companions and said, "Okay, Guys. Don't look at the leader board ranking for a while. It will affect your mood. Its best to stay away from that and wait for our turn to participate in the challenge."

The other hand, only Darius felt unconvinced. At first, he thought lucky. But now he seems he really missed the details. "Is he that powerful? He wondered to himself. " but now listening to Robb words, he felt which is logical. There is no need to waste out time in unnecessary things. After Robb words everyone nodded, they decided to not look at the leaderboard ranking for a while.

…

( From MC's perspective)

The other hand, Zack is fighting against Pseudo Monster 2 in level 4.

"It's really as predicted earlier!" I whispered to myself. Under even Class 2 Monster, I don't feel any threat. It's just pseudo monster, So I don't waste any time to eliminate soon.

Its Lizard Monster. This time inside the place, there is light. So, I can see the Monster clearly. So, I leaped over it to smash it with my fist.

A crackled sound rang out, as I bend my fist to hit it.

As my fist touches the skull, at this time muffled sound rang out. Blood spurted like water, the monster's skull is on other hand is completely broken. Its huge body drops down and dissipated in ate air instantly.

Clearing the level, My peak is completely returned other hand, Now my expression dignified. I already guessed what is the challenge is all about. But now looking at the monster it only confirms the idea of mine. I should use bit more tactic to solve it quickly. Instead of waiting for direct to direct confirmation.

Suddenly, a white light shown on me. I disappeared and appeared at the fifth floor.

Outside the leader board corresponding changes taken place.

LEADER BOARD RANKING

[ Name, Place – Floor – Time ]

[ Zack, Hansen Campus – 4th floor – 10s ]

Inside the leader board, a white light shown on top ranking and in next second the changes updates. Seeing that new person name Zack cleared fourth floor in ten seconds.

"hyssssss"

Everyone outside of the star tower sucked cold breath. "How come this guy is clearing the levels at rapid rate?" One of the strong warrior from second batch couldn't help but say. His heart already set on storms, seeing the sudden changes in few seconds.

Another female warrior, the other hand commented, "Could be the challenge faced by everyone is different. " She voiced out the doubt in her hearts. She too reconciled seeing the rapid development.

"It must be so, that's why others are taking so much time to clear one level than him" A burly warrior said with a serious tone. He also strong youth belong to middle level forces. Friend of his already entered the tower and reached third floor. He clearly understands strength of his friends. His friend clearly demonstrated Peak level Trainee Apprentice strength back in the campus and defeated several strong seniors. That's why he came to conclusion. Challenge must be different for each person.

Once this burly man said it in a rather unintentional loud voice. But it was heard by everyone. Most of them present outside the star tower felt it was true and this must be the case, So, they rekindle their fighting spirit.

Back in the tower, Every other participants right now begin to level up.

…

Inside the fifth floor,

As I appeared in the fifth floor, I knew it may more one or two Pseudo Monsters. Just as I ponder it, I saw two middles size black cat appeared out of nowhere. Without even giving monster a chance to react, I moved and released the frontal attack.

A two quick fist blow landed on their bodies simultaneously. Making their bodies disappeared instantly.

Then I finally, cleared the basic levels and arrive at the Sixth floor.

After arriving at the sixth floor, I took sharp breath. I knew from here on wards, real challenge will going to be start. Just as I began to ponder. A new phantom spirit appeared in front of me out of nowhere. It's a huge black bear Monster, I immediately thought begin to sense it's level. "Class 1 – Initial level"

If I use my lightning, it will case me loss of certain amount of essence. Its better to kill it with pure body strength. After sorting out my mind, I moved. The other hand, Bear monster manifested and seeing it's opponent it let out a huge roar. Then it used its huge paw to attack.

In a moment, both collided with full strength. A dust blown off, the bear staggered backwards and fell down. It couldn't able to control the full pressure. Taking the advantage, Zack landed multiple blows at it's neck and heart. The other hand, Bear Monster's eyes turned blood shot. It let out a furious roar due to it suffered multiple injuries

As the time progressed, the bear monster suffered various injuries. Even though, it's a just a phantom spirit. It actions and reactions were real. In one point, the defense of bear monster broke down. It couldn't able to hold back Zack's relentless attacks. As the final part of its defense broke down, the bear monster disappeared instantly.

I took a sharp breath, after defeating it. Then the light simultaneously falls down, I recovered the peak state and appeared at the seventh floor. The corresponding changes also appears at the leader board ranking.

…

At the same time, Inside the Hansen campus.

Elder Thornton stopped doing his work. He postponed all his work due to Star Tower Challenge. "This kid, Looks like he is going to clear the level ten in half an hour" He whispered to himself.

He couldn't believe his eyes, this bit seems unreal. At first he thought Zack is using artefact, but now he seems to doubt it. Even it's a artefact, how long he is going to use it. If there is a damage, it's impossible to repair it on the spot. Unless, He forfeit the challenge and exit the Star Tower.

Now, there is only answer, He could arrive at this juncture. May be his teacher given him some treasure. He couldn't help but gulp down saliva. He doesn't know what kind of artefact Zack is using? But he is sure in his heart, that it must be high end.

"Zack is really luck to have such teacher." He said to himself.

Then he leisurely picked up his tea pot to fill the cup and then he begin to drink it, While watching the commentary. Even though, they don't broadcast the event, What's happening inside the tower. But these commentators really fascinates him. He couldn't help but smile, when time to time commentators bring the name of Zack and Hansen Campus. He already begin to receive several notifications. Mostly from his old colleague who are now constantly inquiring about Zack.. But now he doesn't want to reply, until the event ends.
