“Ten more steps!”

Determination filled the young Wu Jingyu's face.

Confirming that he had fully adapted to the pressure of this step, Wu Jingyu slowly but firmly stepped towards the next.

Boom!

Instantly, an even more powerful and overbearing pressure nearly crushed his limit.

Wu Jingyu's knees bent slightly, on the verge of collapsing.

“Humph!”

However, his unyielding will allowed him to stand straight again.

“You want to crush me? Come on! Come on! Come on!” Wu Jingyu roared in his heart.

In fact, at this moment, Wu Jingyu had truly reached his limit.

The end of the ten-thousand-step stone staircase was within reach, only a few steps away; but each of these steps exceeded his limit!

Although the pressure increased on each step was extremely subtle, each tiny increase could be the last straw that broke the camel's back.

“I'm not willing!!” If he were to fail in this place, Wu Jingyu would truly be extremely unwilling.

“Nine more steps!”

His unyielding will drove him forward.

Eight steps!

Seven steps!

Six steps!

……

Wu Jingyu recalled his childhood aspirations and longing for the path of martial arts.

In his childhood, Wu Jingyu's family was not well-off; in this world where literary pursuits were for the wealthy and martial arts for the rich, his insistence on taking the path of martial arts brought great burden and pressure to his family.

Fortunately, Wu Jingyu was very sensible since he was a child. He constantly practiced, practiced, and practiced, working hard without daring to stop for a moment—after practicing arm strength, he would practice leg strength, and after practicing leg strength, he would practice physical strength… Every day, he would repeat the cycle, without rest, regardless of the season.

Finally, one day, Wu Jingyu suddenly became enlightened and blossomed with dazzling light, and was hailed as a treasure by his small country, “Yuanzhou Country.”

Later, when conditions improved, Wu Jingyu still practiced diligently every day, not daring to stop.

Now, every step Wu Jingyu took was the result of his years of sweat.

Three steps!

The intensity of the pressure at this time had already exceeded Wu Jingyu's limit, and he was relying entirely on a surge of will to hold on.

Two steps!

The pressure was so intense that Wu Jingyu wanted to give up. This kind of pressure beyond the limit was too painful!

But at this moment, Wu Jingyu remembered his parents' eyes—the resolute look in their eyes ten years ago; even if the family's conditions were not good, they resolutely sent him on the path of martial arts.

Wu Jingyu's heart trembled.

One step!!!

He was finally only one step away from reaching the top of the ten-thousand-step stone staircase; as long as he crossed this step, he would be a noble inner disciple of the Barbaric Sect!

However, this step was as difficult as a chasm.

“I can't step, if I take this step, I will definitely be unable to hold on and faint directly. That way, all my previous efforts will be in vain!”

But, if he doesn't step, what is Wu Jingyu doing standing foolishly on the stone staircase one step away from reaching the top?

“Keep going!”

“Keep going!”

“You can do it!”

“Grit your teeth, step up, and it will be a whole new world!”

“Come on, the last inner disciple spot is beckoning you!”

The successful people who had already reached the top encouraged him one after another, and even some old disciples also cheered him on.

“Yanxi, wait for me to come back! I will definitely become an inner disciple, I will definitely let your family know that your choice to be with me was the right one!”

This gentle figure was incomparably beautiful, and even defied her family for Wu Jingyu—she was the most important person in Wu Jingyu's life!

“Yanxi!”

Calling out the name of his beloved in his heart, Wu Jingyu resolutely stepped onto the last step of the stone staircase. He believed that love could fill him with strength!

The last step, come on!

Stepping onto the last step: “Hold on! I can hold on!”

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.吧!

Wu Jingyu felt that he might collapse at any moment, but he grimaced and held on desperately.

He wanted to take the last step and rush directly out of the range of the ten-thousandth step stone staircase; that way, he could leave the pressure and successfully pass the mountain gate test. However, he tried several times, but couldn't even lift his foot—he had really exceeded his limit!

“Steady, don't rush, stabilize first! After adapting for a while, I will definitely be able to rush out!”

At this time, Wu Jingyu's peripheral vision inadvertently caught sight of a girl walking out from inside the Barbaric Sect, heading towards him.

The girl was dressed in light gauze white clothes like smoke and clouds, as if she were not an elf from the mortal world.

Wu Jingyu vowed that since he had Yanxi, he had adhered to “do not look at what is improper” and had never looked at any woman directly.

However, at this moment, at the last step of the mountain gate assessment, at such a crucial moment where he could not be distracted in the slightest, Wu Jingyu's gaze was involuntarily attracted to her.

“So… beautiful!” Wu Jingyu was directly infatuated.

At this moment, he couldn't even feel the pressure on his body, and only felt warm all over, full of strength.

“She's walking towards me!”

Wu Jingyu realized that he was doing something very stupid, but he couldn't control it.

At this moment, he just wanted to quietly look at the girl in white, forget that he was passing the mountain gate, forget the hardships of the martial arts path, forget the responsibilities on his shoulders, forget his ideals and pursuits, forget all his troubles… He only hoped that time would stay at this moment.

“This girl is definitely poison!” However, Wu Jingyu was willing to be poisoned.

The girl gradually approached, and then suddenly, she smiled.

Her smile seemed to warm everything and melt everything.

“You've come?” The girl's red lips parted slightly.

I've come?

Wu Jingyu really wanted to shout loudly, yes, I've come!

However, he suddenly realized that the girl didn't seem to be talking to him, but to another young man.

Crack!

Wu Jingyu heard the sound of his heart breaking—he really heard it, not just felt it!

This kind of heartbreak was even paler than when Yanxi's family strongly opposed him and Yanxi being together!

Boom!

Wu Jingyu could no longer withstand the pressure of the ten thousand steps, and his whole body flew out with a bang. But he couldn't feel the pain, as if the world had abandoned him.

When flying away, Wu Jingyu was not regretting losing the identity of an inner disciple, but was shocked: “Why… is there such a transcendentally beautiful person in the world…”

The end of the mountain gate also became silent due to the arrival of the girl in white. No one dared to speak, as if afraid of destroying this peaceful warmth.

Xu Ming was also stunned as he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. After a long time, he realized: “You are… Gu Hanmo?”

The girl in white smiled playfully, and the surrounding air seemed to become active and jump: “No! It's… Gu Hanmo!”
