Enveloped In Flames, Yet A Walk In The Park For Me

"Alright, it's time for the test of resolve," Lu Yunfeng announced.

There was a set of stairs made of jade to the left of the platform. It was the Flaming Steps, consisting of nine steps.

It was produced by a master craftsman whom the Lu Family spent a fortune to hire. It was a peculiar device, with intricate inscriptions etched onto the surface.

The inscriptions on the steps would activate when someone stepped on it. It would begin to emit scorching heat that would surround the challenger who attempted to ascend the stairs.

Similar to being enveloped in a blazing fire, the person would have to bear the pain and torture of being enveloped in flames.

Although the flames were not real, the sensation was no different from being within an actual fire.

Furthermore, the scorching heat grew stronger with each step.

For this test, it was a competition between who could stay on top for the longest time, and who could climb to the highest step.
