In the Shenwu Star Tower, the teams of all the Martial Kings rushed towards the top of the Star Tower at full speed, like the princes crossing the river.
The trio of Cao Mansion, Cao Hong, Xing Chou and Tang Dapeng, initially wanted to show off the powerful fighting power of their weapon-refining kings in front of Ye Fan, Gu Xinyue and others, but later on they were trying to save face and never gave in. Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue came to help.
Ye Fan saw that Cao Hong and the others wanted to show off, but they never let him take action. He was secretly amused, and he and Gu Xinyue just waited leisurely.
Anyway, he is not in a hurry. There are still eight or nine hundred floors in the Star Tower behind, which is enough for him to practice his sword skills.
Cao Hong and the others held their breath and rushed upward. After four or five hours, they finally reached the ninety-ninth floor with all their strength.
The first 100 floors of the Star Tower are relatively easy. Even if only the three Martial Kings take action, they can rush to the first 100 floors.
The 100th floor is the first important level.
Guarding this level will be a relatively powerful phantom beast king.
Cao Hong and the others quickly killed all the phantom beasts on the ninety-ninth floor, and immediately rested on the spot, preparing to restore their energy and physical strength to face the major challenge of the 100th level.
Xing Chou was panting from exhaustion and sat cross-legged, munching on dried animal meat to replenish his exhausted physical strength.
He took the time to look at the ranking of the team displayed on his Star Tower token, and was shocked to find that the ranking of Cao's team was extremely low. He couldn't help but jumped up and shouted, "Why are we so far behind?! Senior Brother Cao, we fell to the bottom of the rankings." One hundred! Shit, Qiu Zihang's team is almost reaching the 200th floor, there's such a gap!"
"What, how did we get ranked so low?!"
Cao Hong also hurriedly took out the Star Tower token to look at it.
The Cao Mansion team was indeed ranked number 100.
Of the one hundred Martial King squads that rushed the tower this time, they landed at the bottom.
Cao Hong's expression changed, and his intestines turned green with regret.
In fact, he has always had a grudge in his heart. Three months ago, he competed with Ye Fan in weapon refining skills, and he, the head of the Cao family, lost miserably and was very humiliated.
Since the weapon refining skills are not as good as others, let's compare their combat prowess.
Lest he, the dignified head of the Cao Mansion, could not hold his head high in front of Ye Fan, a distinguished guest of the Cao Mansion.
He knew that Ye Fan had a terrifying Martial Emperor-level sword in his hand. Once Ye Fan made a move, he would definitely steal the limelight from the three of them. This time, climbing the tower became a performance and practice for Ye Fan alone, and he, the head of the Cao Mansion, had nothing to do with him.
So he didn't want Ye Fan to take action prematurely, so he found an excuse to let Ye Fan watch the battle from behind and let the three of them go first.
He wanted to show the fighting power of these people in front of Mark. Even if Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue don't need to take action, the three of them alone can easily rush up to the 100-story tower.
As a result, the three of them did reach the ninety-ninth floor, and with a little more effort they could break through to the one hundredth floor. The three of them alone were able to reach nearly a hundred floors, which was enough to make him feel proud.
But what made Cao Hong extremely depressed was that the Cao Mansion team fell behind all the tower rushing teams.
Although he showed his strength in front of Mark in a small way, he was embarrassed in front of the people of the entire imperial city.
Although Cao's team was weak in the past, it was not at the bottom of the tower. If they make one mistake, Cao's team will become the laughing stock of the entire imperial city this month.
Seeing that he had backfired, Cao Hong couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed, and said to Ye Fan: "Brother Ye, wait a minute. The 100th floor of the Star Tower is the most difficult level among the first 100 floors. It's a bit difficult to beat, and it's very time-consuming. You You might as well lend a helping hand! This way we can pass as quickly as possible."
"Brother Cao, don't worry, we can definitely pass quickly if we work together!"
Ye Fan smiled, held the knife across his chest with both hands, and said to Gu Xinyue: "Xinyue, you will take action in a moment to help Brother Cao!"
He has been observing the three Martial Kings of Cao Mansion for a long time.
There is no doubt that the combat effectiveness is weak.
The members of the Cao family are from a family of weapon refiners, and they don't know much about combat methods and techniques, so they are all relatively monotonous.
However, the phantom beasts on the first 100 floors of Shenwu Star Tower are also weak, and no strong phantom beast has appeared so far.
In fact, there is no need for him to take action himself.
If he takes action now, the other four people in the team will not be able to conduct the trial in the Shenwu Star Tower as soon as the fifth-level top-level Mammoth Imperial Sword is released, and they will only be able to watch him practice his sword skills.
Now it is time for Gu Xinyue to practice her bow combat skills first. This kind of actual combat experience is also very helpful for her to improve her combat skills.
"Um!"
Gu Xinyue smiled lightly and nodded, holding the fourth-order heavy bow in her hand.
It was finally time to try out the power of her peerless "Water Moon God's Hidden Bow Technique" rune combat skill.
Cao Hong and others were puzzled.
Listening to Ye Fan's words, he didn't seem to be planning to take action yet, but just asked Gu Xinyue to do it. And Ye Fan seems to be very confident in Gu Xinyue's fighting ability.
Could it be that Gu Xinyue's combat effectiveness is very high?
They have never seen it and know nothing about it.
…
In Shenwu Square.
Four or five hours later, the sky had completely darkened, and various colored glass lamps were hung up in the restaurants around the square, illuminating the entire square as brightly as daylight.
Because many people have placed large single bets on Cao Fu's team, betting that Cao Fu's team will be at the bottom among all the tower rushing teams, many people in the square have begun to pay attention to this weak and inconspicuous team. Team Cao Mansion Team.
"Haha, look at it! They are indeed at the bottom. They have dropped to the 100th place. There is no weaker team than them. I am not cursing the Cao Mansion team. It is because they themselves have failed to live up to their expectations and become weaker as they fight. How can I blame them? Who did you kill!"
Master Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed, his eyes turned into flowers with smiles, and he loudly showed off to the crowd around him, "I want to increase my bet, and add a thousand yuan stones! Continue to bet that the Cao Mansion team will be at the bottom, and the last ten will be !"
"Okay! The latest odds for the Cao Mansion team are one hundred to one!"
A steward from the Holy Hand Casino said.
"Why are the odds so low? Didn't you lose one out of ten before?"
Master Yan was stunned.
According to the latest odds, he can only earn ten yuan stones for one thousand yuan stones.
The steward of the Shengshou Gambling House rolled his eyes and shook his head: "You don't understand this?! Previously, the Cao Mansion team was ranked 91st, and it was possible to rush up, so the odds were 1 in 10. But now they are all They are in last place, and they are almost certain to be at the bottom, becoming this month's phoenix! If you bet on them being at the bottom, the odds will naturally plummet, one hundred to one! If you dare to bet on them to be in the top ten now, I dare to give it to you Odds of 100 to 1! Do you want to bet? I don't think they can stay in the Star Tower for long. In another hour or two, when they come out, we will close the Cao Mansion team's betting market, thinking No need to gamble anymore."
"Bet, bet!"
Master Yan immediately took out a thousand yuan stones and placed another order, continuing to increase his bet that the Cao Mansion team would be at the bottom.
Anyway, the Cao Mansion team must be completely at the bottom this time. If he earns ten yuan stones, he will earn it. If he doesn't earn it, it will be in vain.
He has been a little poor recently, and these two thousand yuan stones are the money he finally saved.
He placed two single bets in a row, which made him grit his teeth. However, as long as he can slap Ye Fan hard in the face and slap Cao Fu in the face, it is totally worth taking out these two thousand yuan stones. Moreover, it was a business that was sure to make money without losing any money. He could earn one hundred and ten yuan stones from two bets, and he was very happy.
The weapon refiners in the Cao Mansion were arguing with Master Yan at first, but now they all fell silent.
The current weak performance of Cao's team made it impossible for them to argue with Master Yan and could only endure Master Yan's public humiliation.
Great Elder Huayuan, Le Jing and others all shook their heads.
Ye Jinlong stared blankly at the ranking list of Star Tower, sighed, and said to Han Ziyi: "Ziyi, I'm sorry for the change! It seems that the thousand yuan stones you have worked so hard to save will be wasted." !"
Han Ziyi also had a wry smile on his face, "If the Yuan Stone is gone, it will be gone... I just don't know what happened to the Pavilion Master and Deputy Pavilion Master?"
In the first hour, Cao's team was still in the 91st place. If they worked hard, they might be able to reach the top 70 or 80 places. However, after the next four or five hours, instead of making any progress, the Cao Mansion team fell to the bottom step by step, falling to the 100th place.
It seems that the hope of the Caofu team to escape from the bottom is getting slimmer and slimmer.
Let alone reaching the top ten, it is almost impossible.
In a private room of a restaurant near the square, Jiang Yi, Xia Houyue and Chai Song saw that Cao's team had dropped to the last place on the list. They all laughed and felt completely relaxed.
"Such a weak combat power is nothing to be afraid of!"
"I thought that Ye Fan's martial arts system was as strong as the beast control system and rune system, but it turns out it's nothing more than that! It seems that I have been worrying too much in the past few months!"
"In half a month, in the Void Arena, the Royal Guards will definitely win!"
…
The Cao Mansion team rested for nearly a stick of incense on the ninety-ninth floor. The three Martial Kings replenished their strength. Before a torch on the rock wall was completely extinguished, the team quickly rushed to the first level of the Star Tower. Hundreds of layers.
The 100th floor is the first important level of Star Tower.
It is still a huge stone chamber space measuring thousands of feet.
There was a torch on the stone wall. The moment they stepped onto this level, the torch began to burn fiercely and rapidly.
A flame-horned rhinoceros king with a height of more than ten feet and huge short legs stood in the middle of this giant stone chamber. The rhinoceros skin all over his body seemed to be covered with a thick layer of black earth armor, and there was a short, thick and sharp rhinoceros on his forehead. Horns, mouth and nose spurted out two flames that were hot enough to melt gold and iron, and a pair of giant gong eyes glared angrily at the five members of Cao's team.
The body of this Flame Horned Rhinoceros King is larger than the five members of Cao Mansion's team put together.
The Beast King is usually stronger than the Human Martial King.
The Flame Horned Rhinoceros King sitting in front of him on the 100th floor was undoubtedly more powerful than most Martial Kings of the same level.
"Damn it, it's actually the Flame Horned Rhinoceros Beast King! Be careful, everyone, this beast is proficient in the fire system and has a strong frontal collision force. Moreover, the beast's body has extremely strong defense. It is difficult to seriously injure it with ordinary black swords and black knives. If you kill it, It does not die, but is easily injured by it and burned by the flames."
Cao Hong held a heavy hammer in one hand and a heavy shield in the other, his face darkened, and he shouted at the team.
If he were alone, he would almost certainly lose if he faced this flaming rhinoceros head-on.
At least, it would take the three Martial Kings to join forces to hope for a draw with it.
"Senior Brother Cao Hong, how to arrange tactics?!"
"How about, senior brother, you resist its collision head-on, and a few of us attack from the side? Break the legs first, and then kill it completely! How about that?"
Xing Chou and Tang Dapeng both became nervous.
"this..."
Cao Hong was still hesitating about how to arrange his tactics, and was in some trouble.
If Ye Fan takes action, the Wuhuang Sword is enough to tear open the Flame Horned Rhinoceros' armor from the front, causing a fatal blow to it.
But Ye Fan had already said before that he had no plans to take action for the time being, and only asked Gu Xinyue to help. Now there are only three of them, plus Gu Xinyue, working together to deal with the flaming horned rhinoceros king.
The three Martial Kings teamed up to deal with this beast king, and it was probably just a draw. Including Gu Xinyue, the winning rate is probably less than 60-70%.
What's even more troublesome is that the time is limited, and the flaming horned rhinoceros king must be killed before a torch burns out. A torch can only burn one stick of incense, giving them a very short time.
Moreover, no one of the team members can be injured.
Otherwise, it will seriously affect the subsequent tower rushing process. If someone starts to get injured from this level, the battle will become more and more difficult. I am afraid that even the 200th level of Shenwu Star Tower will not be passed.
Cao Hong was not afraid that he would not be able to kill it.
I'm afraid that due to its crazy efforts, it will cause serious damage to the team.
"Moo~!"
The Flame Horned Rhino roared, and sprayed out two torrents of red flames that were more than ten feet long from its nose. Without giving Cao Hong any more time to think about it, it suddenly rushed towards Cao Hong, who was standing at the front of the team.
