Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1871 - 1868: Face-Slapping on the Spot

No one expected that such astonishing opportunities would be hidden within these ruins.

The treasures Li Jiayin obtained upon reaching the eighth layer were already enough to capture attention.

In an instant.

Many Heavenly Nether Sect disciples cast envious glances, their eyes round, mouths agape, as if they were immobilized.

Jiang Long and Lou An, standing by, were also stunned with surprise.

Jiang Long’s eyes sparkled with amazement, his mouth slightly open, as if he hadn’t recovered from the shock.

Lou An was staring intently at the Ice Crystal Long Sword in Li Jiayin’s hand, his gaze filled with both jealousy and unwillingness, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

In contrast, Xu Wendong appeared very calm.

He knew Li Jiayin possessed extremely high cultivation talent, and reaching the eighth level was already terrifying.

In his view, although impressive, it wasn’t unimaginable.

"Not bad," Li Jiayin’s lips curved slightly, revealing a faint smile.

She extended her slender, fair hand and gently grasped the Ice Crystal Long Sword.

In an instant, her delicate body quivered slightly, and a chill emanated from her, rapidly spreading outwards.

Already frosty and aloof, she now seemed to merge with the longsword, her aura becoming even more extraordinary, like a towering, unapproachable icy mountain.

"Junior Brother, you should give it a try too," Li Jiayin said, her mood exceptionally bright after acquiring such a treasure, with eyes full of anticipation indicating Xu Wendong to try challenging the Nine-layered Glazed Treasure Tower.

"Indeed, Junior Brother, having passed the trial of these ruins, you’re likely to gain some opportunities in the tower as well," Jiang Long laughed warmly, his face radiant with excitement, his eyes filled with expectant brilliance, as if he already envisioned Xu Wendong achieving astounding results in the tower.

Lou An, however, raised an eyebrow disdainfully, a hint of contempt flashing in his eyes.

In his opinion, Xu Wendong was just a fledgling youth with limited capabilities.

He spoke slowly, his tone dripping with sarcasm: "Just do what you can, with his cultivation level, reaching the fourth floor would be the limit, getting to the fifth would be sheer luck."

"How can you say that?" Jiang Long frowned slightly, looking displeased: "We’re fellow disciples after all, can’t you expect a bit more?"

Xu Wendong remained composed, giving Lou An a calm glance.

He keenly sensed the strong hostility this person had towards him.

Not knowing the source of this enmity, he still wouldn’t indulge Lou An.

Xu Wendong’s lips curved slightly, with a confident smile he said frankly: "Since Senior Brother doesn’t think much of me, I’ll just make a simple attempt, aiming for the sixth layer at the very least, lest Senior Brother thinks his own talent is that remarkable."

Xu Wendong’s words were like dropping a stone into calm waters, stirring a thousand waves.

Lou An’s face turned extremely unpleasant, as if slapped in public.

He thought reaching the sixth layer was already impressive for himself, not expecting Xu Wendong to retort so boldly.

Jiang Long was also taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing through his eyes.

He didn’t expect Xu Wendong to be so daring, but he appreciated this straightforward character, nodding to himself.

Li Jiayin was also slightly surprised, a hint of astonishment in her beautiful eyes.

She knew Xu Wendong was just a new disciple, successful in passing the trial but likely at the Eighth Level of the Soul Transformation Realm.

While Lou An was an expert in the Tongyou Realm, their strengths were worlds apart.

By all rights, Xu Wendong should tread carefully, yet he was so assertive.

At this moment, Xu Wendong channeled a wisp of soul power to his finger.

That soul power twirled around his fingertip like a lively snake, emitting a faint glow.

Under his control, this force shot towards the Nine-layered Glazed Treasure Tower like an arrow released from a bowstring.

In mere moments, the power shot up to the sixth layer like lightning.

"Whoosh!"

The small tower lit up layer by layer, like stars twinkling in the night sky.

The light attracted the eyes of many Heavenly Nether Sect disciples, drawing wave after wave of astonishment from them.

Everyone whispered among themselves, their faces full of shock.

Jiang Long was so excited that he jumped around, laughing heartily, "Haha, I was right, Lin Mo’s soul power is strong, pushing swiftly to the sixth layer, even better than me!"

Jiang Long’s words made Lou An’s face turn sour as if dripping water.

Xu Wendong said he’d aim for the sixth layer as a minimum and he really did it, such a forceful response was like a loud slap on Lou An’s face.

"Hmph, he’s only equal to me," Lou An snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with a cold gleam like a winter frost blade.

In his heart, Xu Wendong had become a thorn in his side, vowing to eliminate the boy at the first chance.

"Sorry, you’re not even worthy of being on par with me," Xu Wendong maintained his faint smile, his tone carrying undeniable confidence.

His soul power didn’t stop, continuing upwards.

The seventh floor lit up with a more brilliant light than before, proclaiming Xu Wendong’s extraordinariness.

Following that, the eighth layer was also illuminated, the light blazing like a scorching sun, illuminating the entire space.

At this moment, all the Heavenly Nether Sect disciples were so stunned their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.

They widened their eyes, staring at the Nine-layered Glazed Treasure Tower, scarcely believing what they saw.

Beside them, Jiang Long’s mouth hung open, capable of swallowing his own fist.

His eyes were filled with amazement and joy, looking at Xu Wendong with growing admiration.

Li Jiayin’s eyebrows raised slightly, surprise showing in her beautiful eyes.

She didn’t expect such talent from the newly admitted disciple, with such strong soul power, directly challenging the eighth layer.

In her view, given time, Xu Wendong’s potential was limitless, perhaps even rivaling her own.

For the Heavenly Nether Sect, this was undoubtedly monumental news.

"Impossible! This kid must be cheating!" Lou An was shocked, his voice trembling with excitement.

In his mind, a new disciple couldn’t possibly have such strength, reaching the eighth layer was utterly unbelievable.

Unable to accept this, he began suspecting Xu Wendong of cheating.

Jiang Long smirked mischievously, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Lou An, you just said this junior brother would barely reach four or five layers, now he’s doubled it, doesn’t your face hurt?"
