When Elder Huaming just learned that there was a newcomer who was rated as a fifth-level newcomer in this year's Ladder Ranking Competition, he was also quite excited.

As the elder of the school, I naturally hope that the school will become stronger and stronger.

However, Ning Lan's natal star soul was a little special, which made him a little confused. Even though he guessed that this star soul might be special, it was not as reassuring as a six-ring-level star soul.

Today, this level five newcomer challenged the Nine Star Tower, just check out which level he can pass.

Elder Huaming looked at the crystal mirror on the right side of the entrance No. 6 with vague anticipation. The flashing red dot was currently above the first crystal.

The first floor of the Nine Star Tower!

Ning Lan stood still and looked at the space.

This place looks like a small venue, about thirty meters in length and about ten meters in width. There is no natural light in the space, but there is fluorite that can emit light on the four walls.

He saw that at the end of the venue, there was also a door, the same as the entrance to the first floor of the Nine Star Tower from the main hall.

However, in front of the door, there was a puppet man full of blackness.

When Ning Lan looked at the puppet man, the puppet man also stared at Ning Lan with his white eyes open.

"It seems that if you want to enter the next level, you need to knock down the puppet man first." Ning Lan thought to himself.

The disciples of the school who challenged the Nine Star Tower could use half a cup of tea on each floor. If the time comes, if they cannot successfully enter the next floor, they will be teleported to the hall.

After breathing, Ning Lan walked forward.

When he was about ten meters away from the black puppet man.

The puppet's white eyes suddenly turned red. Immediately afterwards, it quickly raised a stick-shaped weapon in its hand.

"It's going to attack me!"

Such thoughts just flashed through Ning Lan's mind.

He heard a dull sound of "boom".

Immediately afterwards, the puppet body rushed forward at an astonishing speed.

Ning Lan was slightly surprised and said, "This puppet man is so fast and so flexible?"

Immediately, the vitality activates and slashes at the puppet man with a sword.

"Crack!" The sword energy swept directly on the puppet's body.

The huge force caused the puppet to fly backwards for two or three meters, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

"The speed is very fast, but the power is not very strong. Overall, it is probably the strength of a warrior at the advanced level of the acquired realm." Ning Lan said intimately.

With a second thought, he also put away his sword and prepared to bypass the puppet man and enter the second floor through the door behind him.

However, unexpectedly, just as he walked to the side, the puppet who fell to the ground stood up with a carp and hit him quickly.

Ning Lan's expression changed.

This puppet man really cannot be underestimated. He was knocked down by his own sword and could he stand up again in such a short time?

Moreover, the power contained in that sword energy is difficult for ordinary warriors who have just entered the innate world to compete with each other. However, when it hits this puppet, there is not even a sword mark left!

Before he could think too much, he swung his sword again and knocked it down.

After knocking down the puppet man this time, Ning Lan did not delay any further, but immediately activated his vital energy and accelerated to rush into the entrance of the second floor.

In the hall, dozens of disciples from the academy saw that on the crystal mirror on the right side of the entrance No. 6, a flashing red dot jumped from the first crystal to the second crystal.

"It's so fast, but in just over a dozen breaths, Senior Brother Ning Lan passed through the first floor?" A disciple from the lower courtyard exclaimed in a low voice.

"Half a cup of tea is about 120 breathing time. Senior Brother Ning Lan only took more than ten breathing time and was so strong!" Another disciple of the lower yard took a deep breath and exclaimed.

"Hmph, what's the fuss? Ning Lan has entered the innate realm and can of course pass through the first level quickly!" A disciple of the upper yard snorted coldly and swept his eyes to the disciples of the lower yard.

"That's true. Even disciples from the lower yard can pass through the first floor of the Nine Star Tower. It is normal for Ning Lan, a disciple from the upper yard, to pass through the first floor within more than a dozen breathing times." Another disciple from the upper yard spoke out.

"What the two senior brothers said is very true. Some people just like to praise others for their stinking feet, haha." A disciple from the lower courtyard sneered.

The disciples of the Xiayuan who were reprimanded did not dare to refute at this time.

Another person smiled and said, "Ning Lan is called the most outstanding martial arts genius in Yangding Academy in decades by some people. How could we ordinary disciples compare to it? Let's guess which level he can pass through the Nine Star Tower."

This person is a disciple of the upper school of Huoyan Academy, and his name is Hu Yichao.

He seemed to be praising Ning Lan, but everyone present could hear it, and his tone was full of sarcastic spirit.

A disciple of the upper school in Jinhui Academy said: "Under normal circumstances, the disciples of the lower school have not entered the innate realm. Most of their achievements are through the first and second levels. Disciples of the early innate realm can generally reach the fourth level through the third level. Disciples of the middle-innate realm can generally reach the fifth level through the fourth level. Disciples of the late innate realm can generally reach the sixth level through the fifth level."

Hu Yichao nodded and smiled, "It's probably that's it, but with our Huoyan Academy's senior sister Zhang Lu passed the sixth floor of the Nine Star Tower to reach the seventh floor, becoming the first in the challenge list."

"Senior Sister Zhang Lu is of course extremely powerful."

"How can ordinary people compare with Senior Sister Zhang Lu?"

"I heard that Senior Sister Zhang Lu is rushing to the peak of innate realm. Once she succeeds, she will definitely be able to reach the eighth level through the seventh level, or even the ninth level."

“…”

When Hu Yichao talked about Zhang Lu, the disciples of all the academy present were full of praise.

Hu Yichao showed a proud look, looked around, and said, "Ning Lan, who has just entered the innate world, has no experience in challenging the Nine Star Tower. I don't think he can reach the fourth floor through the third floor. Moreover, I heard that he comes from a small city called Jiangbei City, and probably hasn't mastered any strong martial arts. If so, it will be even more difficult for him to pass the third floor."

An disciple of the Upper School of Shuiyue Academy said: "Senior Brother Hu's analysis is correct. Ning Lan is only sixteen years old this year. What kind of skillful martial arts can he master? It is very important to challenge the Nine Star Tower. I suspect that this person's martial arts may not be as good as many disciples of the Lower School in the Academy."

"Hahaha..." Several disciples from the upper courtyard and some disciples from the lower courtyard laughed out loud.

Hu Yichao's eyes turned dark and said coldly: "If Ning Lan cannot even pass through the third floor, I wonder what the dean of Tuyou Academy would feel?"

He is a disciple of Huoyan Academy, so he is naturally Dean Qu Ying who is inclined to his college. On the day of the grading competition, Dean Qu Ying lost all his face in the Yingcai Peak Square, and was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.

As a disciple of Huoyan Academy, it is normal to speak for Dean Qu Ying.
