Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 882 - 492: Making the List

At this moment, Liu Ying and others standing among the crowd were looking at the constantly refreshing leaderboard.

Although this leaderboard was rather simple, not even displaying names, they knew for certain it was Ye Feng.

Listening to the comments of the people around them, they felt a sense of sobriety amidst the general intoxication.

They were very clear that with Ye Feng’s strength, this was just the beginning, and breaking the record was a certainty. It was just a matter of how much strength Ye Feng intended to show.

At this time, Ye Feng, who had reached the 11th floor, discovered that the Ancient Battlefield had changed.

Previously, the extent of the Ancient Battlefield was only about 1,000 square meters, and it was shrouded in white fog all around.

During the battles, Ye Feng had tried approaching the fog but was repelled by an invisible barrier, clearly indicating the limited area available for combat.

But now, as he arrived at the 11th floor, the Ancient Battlefield had expanded to an area of 5,000 square kilometers.

And where there had been plains before, now there were some changes, like hills.

More importantly, Ye Feng looked towards his right, his spiritual power directly seizing a boulder and hurling it toward that location.

Boom!

As the boulder fell, the Formation there was triggered, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky, instantly melting the boulder into a pool of magma with its fiery intensity.

"Not only has the terrain changed, but there are also quite a few traps. It seems that what’s being tested next is comprehensive ability," Ye Feng murmured to himself.

At the same time, a new batch of warriors appeared before him.

There were ten Lizardman Warriors at the Early Stage of the Ninth Order, which Ye Feng was quite familiar with.

However, Ye Feng’s gaze swept past them, landing on the leader of the group, a much larger warrior, also clad in full-body armor.

The opponent’s robust build gave Ye Feng an extremely solid sensation, especially the arms, which were as thick as the waist of an average person.

Moreover, the aura emanating from the opponent had progressed from the Early Stage to the Middle Stage of the Ninth Order.

"What species is this? They must be proficient in strength," Ye Feng wondered with some curiosity.

He swiftly cast Spatial Imprisonment, then with a flick of his hand, the Force of Space burst forth as he delivered a chopping blow, slicing open the opponent’s armor.

Then Ye Feng got a clear view of what stood before him, which turned out to be a Bear Warrior.

"Is it always this fancy?"

Ye Feng flipped his palm, and Rule Power spewed out, taking down both the Bear Warrior and the group of Lizardmen behind him in one fell swoop.

Soon after, the same notification sounded, and Ye Feng’s consciousness returned to the Preliminary Selection Tower. He then made his way to the 12th floor.

As expected, Ye Feng encountered 2 Bear Warriors and 10 Lizardman Warriors.

Ye Feng also gradually saw some patterns; as he continued to ascend, there would be more variability in tactics under different animal combinations.

After all, Lizardman Warriors were more agile, while Bear Warriors had stronger defensive and offensive powers.

Together, they would certainly pose a substantial challenge to those trying to clear the levels.

However, for Ye Feng, these were all easy to extinguish with the back of his hand, still without any pressure.

Even these warriors were less appealing to Ye Feng than the changing landscapes.

So, Ye Feng continued at his own pace, steadily making his way upward, floor by floor.

Of course, what was not slow for Ye Feng was perceived quite differently by those outside.

By now, because of Ye Feng’s exceptional performance, the number of people gathered around this temporary leaderboard at the Preliminary Selection Tower was increasing.

The buzz of conversation was growing louder.

"My God, it’s the 19th floor already. Why is his speed of clearing the tower still so terrifying?" someone exclaimed in amazement.

"I’ve been standing here watching from the beginning, and he basically goes up a floor every 30 seconds. If you include the 10 seconds of waiting time, doesn’t that mean he takes out the enemies in 20 seconds?" another analyzed.

"You missed a bit, what about the time it takes to walk up the stairs? That takes a few seconds, right? If you really do the math, he probably defeats the enemies within 10 seconds," someone next to him added.

As these words spread, the number of gathered onlookers undoubtedly increased.

No one felt that Ye Feng was deliberately showing off his speed anymore.

Because for the first few floors, it might be possible to suppress the enemies by virtue of the Realm difference.

But by the time it reached the teens, for the vast majority of people, the battles were already hard, and yet he was still able to maintain such speed, indicating absolute strength.

In the past, some might have spoken of him lightly, but now all had turned to admiration for the strong.

Since Ye Feng was the best performer they had seen that day, some even speculated that he might make it to the final round.

If he could really make it that far, he would be soaring to the skies.

Because anyone who made it to the final round was basically on the list for entry into the Heavenly God Court. At the very least, they could become peripheral members and receive support in terms of resources.

Even if the challenger inside was only Seventh Order, with such support, they could quickly surpass 99% of those in the arena.

While everyone was discussing, the light indicating the 21st floor turned on, and everyone’s spirits lifted.

"Here it comes, the 21st floor. Let’s see if he can maintain the same speed in clearing the levels," someone immediately shouted.
