At this rate, the opponent can only reach the nineteenth floor at most, which is about the same level as Hua Qingyue. Perhaps they will be a little stronger than Hua Qingyue, but at most one or two floors stronger. They will stop at the twenty-first floor at most.
The reason everyone felt relieved was because they had been frightened by Guan Wen's speed of charge. They thought Guan Wen could rush to the thirtieth floor or higher in one go, which was something even Hua Qingyue, the top student in the elite class, couldn't do.
However, judging from his speed of attack above the tenth floor, it was clearly not that easy for him. In other words, although he was a genius, he was not much stronger than Hua Qingyue.
Clearly, she wasn't some unparalleled genius, someone they couldn't even catch up to, even though someone like Hua Qingyue was already like a mountain in their eyes...
Soon, the nineteenth floor of the Power Tower lit up. This meant that Guan Wen had clearly surpassed Hua Qingyue and was about to enter the twentieth floor.
The nineteenth floor lit up for a considerable period of time, but the twentieth floor did not light up. Everyone knew that the guy trying to pass the level must have encountered some setbacks on the second floor, otherwise the second floor should have lit up long ago.
Of course, although this period of time was long, it was only a few tens of seconds apart. However, compared to the previous time when a layer would light up every two or three seconds, it was already quite long.
After about fifty seconds, the twentieth floor finally lit up.
Fifty seconds of combat may not seem like much to outsiders, but in actual combat, fifty seconds is enough for many exchanges of blows, and even for the unleashing of many powerful moves. This is especially true in the confined space of the combat tower, where there is absolutely no room for maneuvering or even using tactics.
The people waiting in the Battle Tower hall knew this too, so they all understood in unison that this guy had reached a bottleneck. He would either fail at the twenty-first floor or at most reach the twenty-second floor, after which he would definitely not be able to improve any further.
Since he had already struggled so much on the twentieth floor, the twenty-first floor would be even more difficult. Although it wasn't particularly difficult, considering all the energy and stamina he had already expended, he should have reached his limit.
Just when everyone thought so, the twenty-first floor suddenly lit up at an extremely fast speed, just like the first ten floors. Before the light from the twentieth floor had even dissipated, the twenty-first floor lit up again.
Upon seeing this, everyone's faces showed surprise, completely bewildered as to what had happened and why the twenty-first floor had lit up so quickly. While the twenty-first floor was unlikely to have a bottleneck-like structure, its overall strength was still higher than the twentieth floor. How could he have progressed so fast? It was simply illogical.
But just as everyone was quite surprised, the twenty-second floor lit up again in an instant, followed by the twenty-third floor.
Twenty-four floors.
Twenty-five floors.
...
All the way up to the twenty-ninth floor!
The lights on all these floors lit up in less than a minute.
In an instant, the entire room fell silent. Everyone stared wide-eyed at each other, completely bewildered as to what was happening.
Judging from Guan Wen's speed in clearing the level just now, he was clearly already at a bottleneck, so why did he suddenly speed up again? What's wrong with this guy?
What the others didn't know was that Guan Wen hadn't used the Crimson Dragon Strike before, nor had he attached the amplified fire dragon scales to his body. That's why he was so cautious when dealing with those giant beasts, which slowed him down. But after passing through the twentieth level, he used the Crimson Dragon Strike, covering his entire body with fiery scales. As a result, these giant beasts, whose highest level was only thirteen, could hardly cause him any harm. That's why he broke through so quickly. He could move freely among the numerous energy bodies without worrying about being hurt, and he could unleash his full power.
It would be strange if the speed of clearing the levels wasn't fast.
In the monitoring room, Fang Ming, who saw Guan Wen's journey through the challenges through the monitor, was completely stunned and stood frozen in place, his body like a statue.
Those outside the Power Tower were surprised, but they hadn't seen what was happening inside. So when Guan Wen's speed slowed down and then sped up again, it was quite surprising to them. But they could only sense their surprise from the surface phenomenon of the Power Tower lighting up.
Fang Ming, who witnessed Guan Wen's entire process of passing the test, was utterly shocked.
Because he was shocked to discover that Guan Wen had released the Flame Scales after passing the twentieth floor, which was equivalent to using the Crimson Dragon Strike.
This means that the reason he progressed so slowly when he was on the 10th or 12th floor was because he wasn't using his full strength.
After using the Flame Scales, his speed increased dramatically, and he was no longer afraid of the energy attacks. This means that the superpower he used provided him with a remarkable defensive capability.
The strength and number of energy bodies on almost every level above the twentieth floor are increasing, but he doesn't care at all, which shows just how high the defensive power provided by his supernatural ability is.
What's wrong with this guy? How many more surprises can he possibly bring me?
Fang Ming was completely dumbfounded.
Previously, he had regarded Guan Wen as an interesting guy who came to challenge him, but now he suddenly felt that this person might be the strongest genius he had ever seen since he started monitoring the combat power tower in Tiancheng, and might even be the strongest genius in the entire Yan Kingdom.
It's important to know that as an inspector for the Superpower Alliance, he also has firsthand information on various high schools.
According to the information he obtained, the highest number of floors that the student from the First High School in the capital of Yan Kingdom had ever reached in the Battle Power Tower was only thirty-nine.
At this point, Guan Wen had already effortlessly passed the twenty-ninth floor and was about to face the thirtieth floor. If he could break through the thirtieth floor with overwhelming force, then reaching the thirty-ninth floor, or even higher, would not be impossible.
Just then, Guan Wen arrived at the thirtieth floor. He saw the surrounding space change and a humanoid energy body with a very powerful aura suddenly appeared in front of him. Guan Wen sensed it slightly and knew that the energy level on its body was level 20.
The thirtieth level, the level twenty energy body, is obviously another bottleneck for ordinary people.
