Chapter 156: Who is Li Mu?

Chapter 156: Who is Li Mu?

Outside the Demon Tower.

The Demon Clan masters from the various regions, including Feng Baiqing, Thunder and Ao Guangzhi were gathered.

Ao Guangzhi’s long body coiled around the tower as he spoke. “The Demon Tower used to be an icon of the Demon Clan, but now it’s locked in place here by the legendary masters of the Human Race. If we have the chance, we must seize it back.”

Thunder stared at the Demon Smelt Tower but his gaze wasn’t focused. “The great war that year caused the Demon Clan to suffer great losses, but so did the Humans. The great Demons, joined by countless demons and orcs, have been suppressing the Humans for so many years. They should have already vented their anger from the war.”

“It’s such a pity that we can’t get the Demon Tower back.”

Pity!

That is the greatest regret of the Demon Clan.

“The only way we can seize it back is if we reach the top of the tower.”

Reaching the top?

Was that even possible?

When they had control of the Demon Tower, many Demon Clan prodigies received their training inside. However, they all died in the tower.

No one ever reached the top.

The highest point ever reached was by the Changliu Fairy of the Phoenix Clan.

She was a prodigy of her generation!

Regretfully, she fell in love with a Human. Their relationship lasted a thousand years and ended tragically.

“Let’s get in the tower and take a look around. There are three of us and we can work together. If we all use our talents together, we might be able to obtain something valuable for our clans.”

“Good idea. Lets’ go!”

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Feng Baiqing noticed something happening on the stone slab.

“What is it? The rankings on the slab have been stagnant for many years. What are you looking at?” Thunder asked in puzzlement.

“We haven’t even entered the first level, there’s no need to keep staring at the rankings.”

Feng Baiqing walked around to the back of the Stele. “Look carefully… The rankings are changing,” he said as he pointed to the rankings.

On the wall of inscriptions, one single line was rapidly skipping up the ranks.

Fenglan Region, Human, Li Mu.

It rose up rapidly from level 37, and quickly reached over level 40.

“What’s there to see? Fenglan hasn’t had anyone on the rankings in so many years. Now that the Land of Demon Slayers has appeared in Fenglan, it’s only natural that some ofthe region’s prodigies would attempt to get on the rankings. Didn’t we already expect to see this?”

“Look again!”

“Hmm? He’s already at level 45?”

Level 30 was always considered a bottleneck.

It would stop more than 90% of the prodigies across the continent.

Anyone who could reach levels above 40 were usually the best in their regions.

“It seems to be so easy for him. He’s almost at level 46 now.”

Just as he said that, Li Mu’s name moved up from level 45 with barely a pause.

“Some people the levels in the beginning to be pretty easy, but they always get stuck at one key level later on.”

“Even if that’s true, this guy isn’t even stopping for a breather.”

“Maybe when we saw this name, he’d already completed the mission on level 45. He just happened to be on his way to climb towards level 46.”

“No matter what, he’s still a very impressive guy from Fenglan.”

Ao Guangzhi changed the subject, “Shall we go in now?”

Thunder stepped to the front, but turned to glance at level 46 on the slab again.

“Hmm… where did his name go? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?”

He took a closer look at the rankings again.

It still wasn’t there.

He stood still and scanned across the names on level 46.

There were more than 200 people there.

He searched and searched, but still couldn’t find the name from earlier.

“The guy’s name just disappeared?”

“What?” Feng Baiqing, who almost had one foot stepped into the tower turned and looked back.

“He… He’s on level 47 now!”

Swoosh~

All of their divine consciousness landed on level 47 and quickly found Li Mu amongst the over 200 names.

Fenlan Region, Human Clan, Li Mu.

“Damn he’s good! Level 47 already?”

“This is the first time the Human Race managed to get on the rankings in many years right?”

“Not just the Human Race, it’s the first time for anyone from the Fenglan region.”

“After the Human Race had fallen, finally there’s a worthy opponent from them,” Thunder said.

“Him? A worthy opponent? Wait till he gets above level 70, then he’ll be worthy enough to become our opponent,” Ao Zhiguang said with disdain in his voice.

“Don’t underestimate this guy. He got on to level 47 with ease. And now he’s on the way to level 50. Anyone who reaches above level 50… well that’s enough to change one’s fate.”

“Level 50 is not a big deal!”

“Don’t forget that he’s a Human. Now that Humans are having a hard time on this land, the rewards that he can get from level 50 would be more than enough for him to obtain a foothold somewhere.”

As they talked, Li Mu’s name disappeared from level 47.

Feng Baiqing was the first to notice the name disappearing.

“This man could reach level 60,” he said.

“What are you basing that on?”

“Just see for yourself!”

Ao Guangzhi and Thunder turned to look.

“Hmm?”

All three of them frowned.

Three of the greatest masters in the continent stood staring at a stone slab.

They stood there, looking at the ranking, for some time. Their expressions changed.

The other clans that have arrived at the Demon Tower for the trial were also bewildered.

One of the elders got curious and used his divine consciousness to seep through the rankings. His expression changed as well. anged drastically as well.

“Who is Li Mu?” the elder asked.

“What Li Mu?”

“Which Li Mu?”

The orcs behind him were all baffled.

“The Human Li Mu!”

“Human? What’s wrong elder?”

“Nothing, go ahead and enter the tower! I’ll take another look!”

The orcs looked questioningly at one other. Although they were confused, they followed their orders. The orcs carefully went around Fen Baiqing’s group and quickly entered the tower.

Feng Baiqing was unmoving as he stared at the stone slab. It looked as if he was possessed.

He didn’t care that the other clans from Fenglan had entered the Demon Tower.

As time passed, Li Mu’s name kept moving rapidly up the ranks.

“He’s at level 57 now. At this rate he’ll actually be able to reach level 60.”

“I changed my opinion, he’ll reach at least level 65,” Feng Baiqing said.

Thunder opened his mouth, but he didn’t say anything.

Ao Zhiguang glared at Li Mu’s name on the Stele, he still wasn’t convinced.

“Shall we wait to see the highest level he can reach?”

If it is really above level 60, then Li Mu can be considered a prodigy on the same level as them.

Before coming to the Demon Tower, Feng Baiqing had read the Demon Tower records of many of his predecessors. He desperately wanted to predict which level he would be able to reach.

After calculating over and over again, Feng Baiqing concluded that the highest level that he could reach was level 70.

If he was unlucky, it would probably only level 65.

Zoom~

Swoosh~

Suddenly, the masters from the various Fenglan clans who had entered the tower earlier were soon thrown out.

They congregated outside the Demon Tower again and watched the other masters from other clans enter.

A dejected youth noticed Feng Baiqing’s group still staring at the stone slab.

“Grandfather, what are they looking at?”

He was intrigued, and asked the elder in his clan.

Just a moment ago, he had managed to enter level 17 of the Demon Tower before being knocked out.

He had returned to the front of the tower to watch his opponents from the other clans make a laughing stock of themselves.

Before he had entered the tower, he had noticed the Demon Clan masters staring at the slab. And now that he’s out, the masters were still staring at it.

But he didn’t dare to cross the backs of the three to survey the slab, so he asked the elder instead.

The elder took a deep breath and said, “There’s a prodigy from Fenglan region on it.”

The expression in his eyes were conflicted.

Instead of envy and jealousy, there was a tinge of delight.

And behind that delight was a sense of amazement.

He was worried that Li Mu might fail, but at the same time, he hoped that Li Mu would fail.

“Someone from our region got on the rankings? Which clan, who?”

“It’s a human. His name is Li Mu!”

“Who’s Li Mu?”

“I’d like to know who’s Li Mu too?”

As time passed, Feng Baiqing and the others almost stared their eyes out.

“Level 62, I think he still has strength to spare.”

“How’s that possible!”

At the same time, the other human masters of Fenglan were almost hyperventilating.

On one hand, the prodigies from their clans didn’t manage to make a difference on the rankings.

On the other hand, this Human from Fenglan was climbing up the ranks!

It wouldn’t be difficult to imagine how conflicted their emotions were.

“If only this guy is a member of our clan,” one of the orcs said.

“Quick, find out who this Human Li Mu is? Why have we never heard of him before?”

“Find all the Human’s in Fenglan who has the surname Li, I want to meet this person,” a Tiger Clan elder said.

Level 65.

This person can’t just be described as merely a prodigy.

This is a prodigy of the generation.

The Li family would rise, for sure; perhaps even the entire Human Clan would rise.
