"Sister Yue, do you think the boss can really get through the first layer?"

Qian Duoduo asked Xiao Ningyue as they watched Wang Ruoxie head toward the Ninth Story Tower.

Although he had witnessed Wang Ruoxie's strength, given that Wang Ruoxie was only at the Ninth Layer of the Essence Pill Realm, he might manage the earlier layers, but the later ones would be uncertain.

"Even though Ruoxie hasn't broken through to the Acupoint Condensation Realm, his real strength is comparable to the early stage of the Acupoint Condensation Realm, perhaps even stronger, so passing the first layer shouldn't be a problem."

Xiao Ningyue smiled slightly and added, "He might even pass the second layer."

"No way? Is the boss really that powerful?"

Qian Duoduo exclaimed in surprise at Xiao Ningyue's words.

"If he weren't strong, how could he be your boss?"

Xiao Ningyue replied with a smile.

"Indeed, my boss, Qian Duoduo's boss, is no ordinary person."

Hearing Xiao Ningyue's words, Qian Duoduo's eyes squinted with laughter.

"Fatty, I also believe that Brother Wang can pass the second layer."

At this time, Dugu Mo suddenly said.

"Ice face, you sound so sure, have you seen my boss's real strength?"

Qian Duoduo asked, looking at Dugu Mo.

"Although I haven't seen Brother Wang's real strength, I can sense that he, like me, is a true Sword Cultivator, and his swordsmanship should not be inferior to mine."

Dugu Mo spoke again.

Hearing Dugu Mo's words, Qian Duoduo was truly shocked.

He knew that Dugu Mo's swordsmanship had reached the level of Great Perfection of Ninth Layer Sword Intent, and he even comprehended Unity of Man and Sword, just half a step away from the Sword Soul Realm.

Even a martial cultivator at the late stage of Acupoint Condensation Realm, or even in the early stage of Purple Mansion Realm, might not have comprehended Sword Intent to Great Perfection, let alone Unity of Man and Sword.

He could never have imagined that Wang Ruoxie could reach such a level with his cultivation in the Essence Pill Realm. Even the top fifty geniuses on the Myriad Dragons List might not achieve this!

At this moment, Qian Duoduo suddenly felt that acknowledging Wang Ruoxie as his boss was perhaps the most correct decision of his life.

"No way, is that guy also planning to take on the Ninth Story Tower?"

"It's simply seeking death, daring to challenge the Ninth Story Tower with just Ninth Layer of Essence Pill Realm cultivation."

"He probably can't even get past the first layer and might die directly on the first layer."

Everyone saw Wang Ruoxie heading towards the Ninth Story Tower, and began discussing with astonishment.

In everyone's eyes, Wang Ruoxie's attempt to break through the Ninth Story Tower with his Ninth Layer Essence Pill Realm cultivation was utterly suicidal.

To know that the guardian puppets of the Ninth Story Tower won't care what your cultivation is; if you dare to intrude, they're all out to kill you.

If the strength difference is too great, there's no chance to retreat, and you'd be instantly killed by the guardian puppet.

This is why not many dare to challenge the Ninth Story Tower, and even if they do, they won't recklessly attempt a higher layer.

Although the guardian puppet of the first layer's first tier is only as powerful as an ordinary Martial Cultivator of the first layer of the Acupoint Condensation Realm, this is in terms of the Acupoint Condensation Realm, but for Wang Ruoxie of the Ninth Layer Essence Pill Realm, it's a terrifying opponent he can't resist.

Many people looked at Wang Ruoxie with sympathetic eyes, as if he were marching to his death rather than the tower.

This further proved to them that Wang Ruoxie was an ignorant and reckless fool, and no wonder he had dared to accept Dugu Mo's challenge previously.

Of course, most people hoped Wang Ruoxie couldn't walk out of the Ninth Story Tower alive.

Because they saw that stunning woman seemed to have an extremely close relationship with this ignorant madman, which was something they couldn't accept.

Especially those young men hoping to win a beauty's heart—they wished they could personally kill Wang Ruoxie. How dared this ignorant kid defile such an unparalleled beauty?

Wang Ruoxie, naturally unaware, had already been wished death by all before even starting his challenge.

At this moment, he had already arrived at the first layer of the Ninth Story Tower's first tier, facing a Two-winged Black Tiger.

"Such a fine puppet; it could pass for a real one. Unless one knows about puppetry, it's impossible to tell this isn't an actual Demon Beast but a Puppet Beast."

Wang Ruoxie thought inwardly as he surveyed the Two-winged Black Tiger in front of him.

Judging from the aura emitted by this Two-winged Black Tiger, the guardian puppet of the first layer's first tier should only be equivalent to a normal Martial Cultivator of the first layer of the Acupoint Condensation Realm.

"Roar!"

Being stared at by Wang Ruoxie, the Two-winged Black Tiger seemed insulted, immediately roaring and pouncing fiercely at him.

As the Tiger roared, its claws, carrying terrifying power, closed in on Wang Ruoxie, as if about to shred him to pieces.

Facing the approaching sharp claws, Wang Ruoxie remained calm, then he casually threw a punch to meet the Two-winged Black Tiger.

This seemingly ordinary punch was incredibly fast, landing on the giant head of the Two-winged Black Tiger almost instantly.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the massive body of the Two-winged Black Tiger was shattered by Wang Ruoxie's punch.

"The guardian puppet of the first layer is truly too weak."

Wang Ruoxie mumbled with a slight frown.

This punch, without using True Essence, and barely using physical strength, still easily destroyed the Two-winged Black Tiger.

Although he had passed this layer, it couldn't thoroughly test the extent of his physical strength.

"It seems I need to reach the later tiers of the first layer to better assess my body's strength."

Wang Ruoxie thought to himself.

Without further delay, he stepped forward towards the second tier.

Before long, he arrived at the first layer's second tier, spotting two Two-winged Black Tigers.

Outside the Ninth Story Tower, everyone was in complete shock.

"Did I see right? The second tier is lit."

"How is it possible that someone of the Ninth Layer of Essence Pill Realm could pass the first layer? Doesn't this mean his true strength is comparable to the first layer of Acupoint Condensation Realm, perhaps even stronger?"

"Not necessarily, maybe he used some life-saving trump card, or perhaps he holds a powerful treasure that allows explosive strength far beyond his cultivation realm for a short time."

...

Everyone was talking in disbelief that Wang Ruoxie actually got through the first layer.

"Boom, boom!"

In the second tier of the first layer, Wang Ruoxie continually punched and effortlessly destroyed two Two-winged Black Tigers.

One punch per Puppet Beast, completely brute-forcing his way.
