With a dazzling golden light, all the warriors who had chosen to participate took a step forward at the same time.

Chu Feng took a rough glance. Not many people chose to give up.

Even though they knew that they might die, they still chose to enter.

Perhaps, this was humanity.

In his previous life, humans had relied on this spirit to repel the invasion of the Abyss over and over again.

Beside him, Ye Qingtian looked over again.

Seeing this, Chu Feng smiled lightly.

“Why, Old Ye, do you still want to bet with me?”

Ye Qingtian shook his head firmly.

“Haha, no thanks. I trust you this time! You’re a weirdo. I won’t be asking for a rebuff!”

“However, I want to remind you to be wary of Lin Yi. After all, he is from a sacred land of ancient martial arts. He has powerful internal energy and is proficient in all kinds of secret arts. He is also a B-rank warrior. His strength cannot be underestimated!”

“You offended him badly previously. Be careful that he takes revenge on you.”

Chu Feng nodded indifferently.

He had no intention of hiding his strength.

It would be better if Lin Yi provoked him first.

‘The path of slaughter was Lin Yi’s best burial ground!

Actually, even if Lin Yi didn’t find fault with him, Chu Feng planned to find an excuse to kill them.

Leaving such a scourge alive was not the best choice.

Before Ye Qingtian could say anything else, thousands of golden lights erupted from the Stairway to Heaven at the same time.

It accurately enveloped all the participating warriors.

It sucked everyone into the Stairway to Heaven.

On the first step, everyone’s figures could be seen clearly.

It did not seem crowded.

The tiny space accommodated so many people.

One couldn’t help but sigh with admiration at the miraculousness of the Golden Ranking Lists.

A large number of drones were ready.

Surrounding the Heaven-Ascending Stairs, they aimed at some of the genius experts that the officials favored.

They would be streamed live.

Chu Feng was naturally fortunate enough to be assigned to a drone.

At the same time, a loud mechanical voice rang out, deafening.

“The Stairway to Heaven assessment has officially begun.”

‘Then, a huge light curtain appeared out of thin air.

‘The names of all the participants had appeared on it. There was a counter behind them, and everyone’s slaughter points would be recorded.

It was presented in real-time!

On the first step of the Stairway to Heaven, although it was called a step, it was more like a small rectangular plaza.

Each flight of stairs was hundreds of meters tall!

Standing in the middle, Chu Feng and the others appeared very small.

Moreover, all the participants could see each other.

Just as the Artifact Spirit announced the start of the assessment, another piece of information surged into everyone’s minds.

It explained in detail the various rules of the Stairway to Heaven.

For example, each flight of stairs could only last for three minutes. They would kill as many as he could.

In addition, when climbing the stairs, one would be enveloped by a pressure. If one could not persist, they would also be eliminated.

There was also other information.

‘After everyone understood, the assessment began.

Almost at the same time, more than ten crawling monsters had appeared around the stair where everyone was.

‘The monster had four eyes and eight legs, its hideous fangs were dripping with shit-green saliva.

‘They were abnormally disgusting.

Chu Feng frowned.

They were the lowest-grade demonic creatures, which only had the strength of reserve warriors. No matter how many there were, they were not worth mentioning.

But these things were disgusting.

Chu Feng even drew his Cleaved Edge Saber.

He did not want these disgusting guys to get close to him.

The next moment, everyone’s battle erupted.

Because the weakest candidate for the assessment was still a D-rank, to them, although these low-grade demonic creatures were difficult to deal with, they were not fatal.

All of them were in high spirits.

However, facing the siege of more than ten beasts at once, they were unable to eliminate them quickly.

Only those C-rank warriors could kill monsters quickly.

As for Chu Feng, it was much simpler.

He calmly looked at the demonic creatures charging towards him.

His figure transformed into a stream of light.

‘The Cleaved Edge Saber in his hand slashed gently.

The dozen or so low-grade demonic creatures in front of him were sliced into two like paper.

Dark green blood splattered all over the stairs.

‘The sturdy armor that they were so proud of was completely useless.

Boom!

The ground was shaking.

‘They were all dead!

The Artifact Spirit also reminded him at the right time.

Points: + 13

Chu Feng’s ranking immediately soared to first place.

This scene caused quite a commotion in the outside world.

No one had any doubts that Chu Feng was able to kill all the demonic creatures.

However, to kill them all with just one slash was a little too surprising.

Not far away, Lin Yi saw the change in Chu Feng’s points after killing a demonic creature.

He began to feel anxious.

He was determined to completely suppress Chu Feng in the final assessment.

Chu Feng had already cleared the area.

He had to hurry.

To him, a dozen low-grade demonic creatures were nothing.

Chu Feng did not think much of it.

He continued to wait for the refresh.

There was more than one wave of demonic creatures.

Warriors could stay on every step for three minutes.

He would kill as many as he could.

Soon, twenty more demonic creatures on Chu Feng’s side were spawned.

This time around, Chu Feng did not even wait for them to get close.

With a light shake of the Cleaved Edge Saber, a sharp blade aura burst forth.

It was like cutting wheat.

Wherever the saber beam reached, the demonic creatures fell one after another.

‘With just one slash, all the demonic creatures were cleared again.

“Damn, they’re all dead again??”

In the outside world, Ye Qingtian was stunned.

Was he killing monsters or cutting fruits?

Even if he was a peak C-rank, it shouldn’t be so easy!

Didn’t Lin Yi just kill the first wave of demonic creatures?

Lin Yi had just cleared the area.

But before he could rejoice, he discovered that Chu Feng had encountered the third wave of demonic creatures!

In the next moment, all of them collapsed again.

The entire process lasted less than a second.

Those disgusting demonic creatures had not even finished their appearance!

Lin Yi felt like he was going crazy.

How could he chase after him?!

‘Then, the fourth wave, the fifth wave

No matter how many monsters were spawned at once!

‘Without exception, from the beginning to the end, Chu Feng had only used a single slash.

Then, a large number of demonic creatures fell.

His points were jumping crazily as if he had eaten stimulants. There was no stopping.

Everyone in the outside world felt their scalps tingle.

His saber… was so fast!

Just a minute later, Chu Feng raised his head and looked around in bewilderment.

“Why aren’t there more demonic creatures?”

Did I kill them all?

This shouldn’t be happening!

Chu Feng was confused.

He knew very well that the demonic creatures on the Stairway to Heaven were all condensed from energy. There would not be a situation where there were not enough of them!

Just when Chu Feng was puzzled, in the dark, the Artifact Spirit of the Stairway to Heaven had complained about Chu Feng countless times!

Do you think energy is free?

You humans have only paid a few points as rent.

If you continue killing, I’ll suffer a huge loss!

Yes.

The Artifact Spirit felt sorry.

Its energy was not produced out of thin air.

It needed to balance his spending.

Generally speaking, nothing would go wrong.

But Chu Feng was too abnormal!

He did not look like an ordinary C-rank warrior at all!

His killing speed alone was comparable to the killing speed of thousands of others!

At this rate, the Artifact Spirit felt that this transaction would be a huge loss!

Thus, it stopped spawning demonic creatures for Chu Feng.

This scene was streamed live.

Everyone in the outside world gasped.

‘What happened!

‘The demonic creatures on the first step… had all been killed by Chu Feng?

While the others were still fighting the first wave of demonic creatures, and some had sustained serious injuries, Chu Feng was already holding the Cleaved Edge Saber and waiting for the protective layer between the stairs to disappear three minutes later.

What a terrifying killing machine!

Lin Yi, who was on the stair beside him, tried his best to catch up. His forehead was covered in sweat, but he realized in despair that the gap between them was widening.

He was having a mental breakdown!
