Jun Feijue and the others could not keep up with Dean Xia's speed. By the time they arrived, Dean Xia was gone, and only Liang Shucheng was there.
"Assistant Liang, is Xiaoya inside?" The group immediately stepped forward to ask as soon as they landed.
"Yes, but the situation is not optimistic."
Assistant Liang hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "It's been so long, I just hope we can be rescued in time."
"What does it mean to say that there's still time to rescue them? What does that even mean?!"
Upon hearing this, the brief joy that the master and his disciples felt upon finding the person vanished instantly.
"Let me briefly tell you about the situation at the Refinement Tower."
Liang Shucheng looked up at the Refining Tower and said with a solemn expression, "The Refining Tower has a total of forty-nine floors. Floors one to twenty-two are suitable for immortals to challenge. After the twenty-third floor, each floor corresponds to a Celestial Realm level. That is to say, the twenty-third floor corresponds to the first level of the Monarch Profound Realm, the twenty-fourth floor corresponds to the second level of the Monarch Profound Realm, and so on."
"Then...then Xiaoya now..." Zhan Wushuang asked, his voice trembling.
"That Black Cliff... has been confirmed to have been sent to the 28th floor."
With regret in his eyes, Liang Shucheng said, "With his current strength, he absolutely cannot pass the level."
"Twenty-eight floors, that's the sixth level of the Monarch Profound Realm!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Feijue and the others turned pale instantly, and Fan Qiyue's eyes were red-rimmed with tears welling up.
Jun Feijue and the others also gasped for breath. With such a huge gap in strength, and Yuan Tun Ding now seriously injured and in a deep sleep, wasn't Xiao Ya in danger?
"That damned inner disciple, he just happens to be at the sixth level of the Monarch Profound Realm!"
Long Bujie slammed his fist heavily on the stone table next to him, instantly shattering it into pieces. "What grudge does he have against Xiaoya? This is a matter of life and death, it's not just about points!"
If the fight had taken place within the academy, Dean Xia could have quickly discovered and stopped it, making it impossible for him to kill Ji Fanya. The fact that the other party brought Ji Fanya directly to the Refining Tower clearly showed their intention to exterminate him completely!
"Old Xia and I also feel there's something wrong here. Could it be that you have enemies outside of school?"
Liang Shucheng looked at Jun Feijue and the others and said, "This is definitely not a simple conflict between students."
"No."
Jun Feijue said calmly, "Those with whom we have a grudge are all dead."
Liang Shucheng: "..."
"I'll go save them."
At this moment, Di Moyu put Jun Feijue down and was about to walk towards the Refining Tower.
"Kid, let's not even talk about how you're not strong enough yet. You've never even tried to enter the Refinement Tower before. The first time, you'll have to go through each level one by one. There's simply not enough time."
Seeing this, Liang Shucheng quickly stopped him, "Old Xia has already gone to find the core disciples who have passed the test to come and help, you should just wait."
"Is there no protective mechanism in place inside this Refinement Tower?"
Hearing this, Zhan Wushuang couldn't help but ask with reddened eyes, "If a student encounters danger inside, won't they be teleported out immediately?"
In fact, Jun Feijue and the others thought the same way. Since it was a place for training, there was no reason to push the students to their deaths!
"The function of the Refinement Tower is not as simple as you think. To prevent accidents, the autonomous teleportation function has been turned off."
Liang Shucheng shook his head helplessly and said, "Of course, we won't send our students to their deaths. Before they go in, they'll be given a teleportation crystal. If a student can't hold on any longer, they just need to channel their Xuan energy into it, and they'll be teleported out. The problem is..."
