Chapter 72 Three-step tower!
Amid the roar of thunder, five violent purple-red lightning bolts fell from the sky like spears of the angry god, mercilessly hitting the severely injured silver-wire poisonous spider and tearing its body into pieces in an instant.

Kill instantly with one hit!

Blood splattered everywhere, pieces of flesh were scattered, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of burning.

The terrifying thunderbolt frightened the Flame-Desire Blood Falcon that was soaring in the sky. It retreated hurriedly, fearing that it would be hit by another thunderbolt.

"It's done!"

"It's obviously my prey." Yu Qiuyue squatted in front of the corpse of the silver-lined poisonous spider, staring at the broken limbs and flowing purple blood. She suddenly wanted to cry.

The corpse of a general-level demon can be sold for a lot of money, especially the poison sac and silk sac of the silver-line poisonous spider. These two are particularly valuable, and the two sacs together can be sold for more than two million.

Yu Qiuyue wailed in her heart. All the items worth two million were destroyed by Xu Mu's thunderbolt.

She is very poor.

Xu Mu didn't know what Yu Qiuyue was thinking while squatting there. After he dealt with the silver-line poisonous spider, he immediately turned around and went back to help Ding Yumian clean up the remaining small poisonous spiders.

After a while, the remaining small poisonous spiders were eliminated one by one. At this point, the assessment mission of the main campus was successfully completed.

Next, I have to go back and report to President Xiao.

"Yu Qiuyue, we should go back." Xu Mu patted Yu Qiuyue's shoulder and said, "I'm still waiting to use the Three-Step Tower to break through the intermediate level of the Space System."

"Three-step tower?"

The Three-Step Pagoda enjoys a great reputation in Mingzhu Academy. It can be said that everyone knows about it. One day of cultivation in the pagoda is equivalent to twenty days of cultivation in the outside world.

Moreover, as the level increases, this ratio can be increased to an astonishing one to two hundred, or even higher.

Thinking of the benefits that the Three-Step Tower could bring, Yu Qiuyue was too lazy to feel sad about the silver-lined poisonous spider's silk sacs and poison sacs. She immediately recalled her Flame Desire Blood Falcon and took the two of them back to Mingzhu Academy.

……

The next day——Dean Xiao’s office.

"President Xiao, we're back." Xu Mu yawned as he walked into the office.

Dean Xiao flipped through the information in his hand and said calmly without looking up: "The speed at which you complete the task is somewhat unsatisfactory."

"I finished it last night, but I came back late, so I slept in." Xu Mu shrugged and explained.

It was already late at night when they came back last night. It's impossible for them to come to report to Dean Xiao in the middle of the night, right?

So, I rushed to the dean's office early this morning to report.

Dean Xiao nodded slightly, then asked the three people which department they wanted to practice in.

"I want to go to the Space Department. I can practice the Thunder Department by myself." Xu Mu said.

"I'm going to the water courtyard." Yu Qiuyue said.

The two responded quickly, but Ding Yumian was slow to respond. Dean Xiao noticed her hesitation and said gently:

“There is no need to rush the department’s decision. It is not too late to make a decision before the start of the next semester.”

"Dean Xiao, when will we give the first place reward?" Xu Mu wiped his palms and asked expectantly.

He was also waiting to use the training amplification function of the Three-Step Tower to raise his lightning cultivation to the third stage and break through the bottleneck of the space system in one fell swoop.

"The first team that performed well in the main campus assessment will indeed be rewarded with a precious opportunity to enter the Three-Step Tower for training, but the three of you must carefully choose the right time to train." Dean Xiao said slowly. "What about the training time?" Xu Mu asked.

"Seven days per person."

The Three-Step Pagoda is also an extremely precious cultivation resource in Mingzhu Academy. Even in the main college, only the top 50 students can get the opportunity to practice once a month.

The reward for the first place in the assessment is seven days. If you complete it individually, you will receive all the rewards. If you complete it as a team, it is limited to 5 people and they will receive the same reward.

……

The Three-Step Tower stands at the core area of ​​the main campus of Pearl Academy, and is a valuable resource that many Pearl elites there are fighting for.

The Three-Step Pagoda not only has a long history, but is also a unique magical building that embodies the wisdom of the ancients. It can effectively gather the scattered elemental energies between heaven and earth and bring them together.

Under the guidance of Dean Xiao, Xu Mu came to the entrance of the Three-Step Pagoda.

Ding Yumian and Yu Qiuyue did not come along, probably because of their cultivation level. They did not plan to use the precious training spot in the Three-Step Tower for the time being.

Xu Mu looked up at the mysterious magical building and saw that it was a perfect three-dimensional triangle shape, giving people a strong visual impact.

The exterior of the Three-Step Tower is made of silver metal with smooth and straight lines, like a sharp sword piercing the sky, which is particularly eye-catching on the main campus.

"Hello, Dean." Upon seeing this, the two girls guarding the entrance of the Three-Step Pagoda immediately bowed respectfully to Dean Xiao.

"It's your turn to stand guard today. I've already greeted Xu Ke. You can take this student in." Dean Xiao said, pointing to Xu Mu beside him.

"Junior, you are the first place in the main campus assessment this year, right?" said the girl with a melon-seed face with a smile.

"It's just luck." Xu Mu said modestly.

"I heard that the first-place commission requires the removal of a general-level demon and dozens of slave-level demons. Junior, you are not just lucky." said the girl with a melon-seed face.

A general-level monster would take four or five students from the main campus to deal with, not to mention the dozens of servant-level monsters.

At least seven people are needed to work together.

And this junior student in front of me completed this commission with only three people. Luck? Who are you kidding? Do you really think she is a three-year-old child?
The girl with the oval face took Xu Mu into the three-step tower and explained the next steps to him.

Xu Mu followed closely behind. After entering the tower, they saw a long metal passage in front of them, with a cold metallic luster.

This passage was extremely strange. No matter how Xu Mu moved forward, he felt like he was going around in circles and could never reach the end.

Space magic!
Xu Mu quietly observed his surroundings. Although the Three-Step Tower did not look big from the outside, it was actually a folded space inside.

There is a concept in space magic: one step a thousand feet, two steps ten thousand miles, three steps without boundaries!
The Three-Step Pagoda is also known as the Boundless Pagoda. Although its exterior does not appear particularly grand, its interior space is boundless.

Continue walking forward and you will see a staircase in front of you. Its design is unique, consisting only of layers of suspended stair plates.

They are looming in the dimness, leading to a triangular suspended platform that soars into the sky and has a great geometric beauty.

The girl with an oval face stopped and said to Xu Mu, "Junior, I can only take you here. You need to walk the rest of the way by yourself."

She pointed to the stairs ahead, "Just go up these steps and you'll reach your destination."

"Every time you step on a step, the gravity of the space will force your magic power to be consumed faster. Junior, remember to do it within your ability."
