"Finally, we're almost there."

A few people looked up at the summit above, their faces showing a trace of joy and a sense of relief.

As long as they overcome the last stretch of the peak, they should be able to reach the top.

However, by the time they reached here, they were so exhausted that they collapsed on the ground, feeling as if every step further was claiming their lives.

It was really too difficult.

The group lay on the ground, clothes tattered, fingernails filled with dirt, showing that they were utterly exhausted.

Zhou Yingting was also very tired, lying on the ground and panting heavily.

After resting for a moment, the fatigue did not alleviate at all.

Knowing that sitting like this wouldn't help them get up the mountain, Zhou Yingting moved forward again.

The rest saw this scene, raised their eyelids, and watched as Zhou Yingting walked forward, but none intended to move.

Previously, seeing Zhou Yingting climb alone, they would have been extremely excited and would have followed along no matter what.

But now, watching Zhou Yingting move forward bit by bit, they had no desire to follow.

After all, being the first to go up doesn't necessarily entail any reward.

The previous paths had almost drained their spirits.

At this point, they just wanted to take it slow as long as they could get up, everything else would be fine.

With this thought, as they watched Zhou Yingting crawl forward, their eyelids only twitched slightly, without any intention to compete.

If Zhou Yingting wants to go up first, let him go up first.

Beside him, Wu Song saw Zhou Yingting surpassing him and lethargically said, "Go for it, go up and see if after reaching the top, the Tier One task is completed."

A few people shouted at Zhou Yingting, hoping he could go up smoothly.

So they would know if this was the last obstacle.

"I'll do my best."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yingting sluggishly approached the last cliff.

At this point, the peak standing before Zhou Yingting was like a giant sword, completely vertical.

Moreover, this area appeared extremely steep and sharp.

Zhou Yingting came forward, reached out, and attempted to grab the rocks ahead, trying to climb the peak.

But the cliffs around were incredibly smooth, with nowhere to start.

With such a wall, going up seemed incredibly difficult.

Zhou Yingting looked around, his expression somewhat strange.

Looking at the situation ahead, it seemed impossible to climb the mountain.

Thinking this, Zhou Yingting couldn't help but turn to Wu Song and the others.

"The wall here is very smooth, it's probably impossible to climb up this side, I'm going to look elsewhere."

The others, hearing this, struggled to sit up and looked toward Zhou Yingting.

Initially, they had seen this bald wall before, but hadn't given it much thought.

But now, hearing Zhou Yingting's words, their expressions became a bit solemn.

"Is there nowhere to leverage on this wall?"

The people behind him asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yingting shook his head, "No, it's completely smooth, trying to climb like this... it's almost impossible."

Previously, with full strength, it might have been possible.

But now, just as Zhou Yingting said, it's completely impossible.

Hearing Zhou Yingting, everyone's expressions turned a bit grim.

If that's the case, how can they go up?

At this time, Zhou Yingting spoke and started moving to the side, intending to look elsewhere.

The others moved slightly, then lay down again, planning to follow later.

They were so exhausted that they felt powerless to follow.

After resting a bit, they finally grit their teeth and followed.

Soon, by tracing Zhou Yingting's path, they successfully found him.

Zhou Yingting was already climbing the mountain; the cliff here seemed a bit rough compared to the previous spot, with some jutting stones to grip.

When they arrived, Zhou Yingting had already climbed several meters.

Seeing this, everyone was secretly amazed; Zhou Yingting still had strength.

"How is it, can you climb?"

Those below shouted, watching Zhou Yingting as he moved.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yingting glanced down, then at the top, and said, "I can climb up for now, but... it's somewhat dangerous."

While speaking, Zhou Yingting glanced at his palm, "The things up here differ from those below, the stones and such could cut our palms."

"Be careful when you come up."

Can they cut palms?

Surprised by this, everyone quickly approached Zhou Yingting's feet, attempting to grip some sharp stones.

As they exerted effort, they felt a stabbing pain in their palms.

These things truly could cut their palms!

Realizing this, their expressions instantly became difficult.
