“Then, let’s wait and see.”

Li Xiaobai chuckled lightly, clearly unbothered.

Being targeted by all the clans?

That was exactly what he wanted. Without being targeted, where would the Attribute Points come from?

“Hmph!”

Situ Guixiong snorted coldly and stopped paying attention to Li Xiaobai. With a flicker of his figure, he took one step and crossed the first layer of steps, instantly appearing on the second layer.

“As expected of the eldest son of the Situ Family, the first layer’s steps pose almost no hindrance to him!”

“It’s said that Brother Situ’s strength has reached another level after his last seclusion. His current cultivation level must be at least the third layer of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage!”

“Hehe, even the fourth layer of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage wouldn’t be surprising. As a son of the Situ Family, it is only natural for him to be at the forefront of the younger generation of cultivators!”

“In this competition on the arena, he will undoubtedly shine. This isn’t a challenge that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can take on.”

“Indeed, if it were me, I would have already knelt and begged for Young Master Situ’s forgiveness. The mere thought of entering the arena is unthinkable.”

The many cultivators nearby sneered repeatedly, their words dripping with mockery toward Li Xiaobai.

In their eyes, the arrogant words spoken by Li Xiaobai were simply an overestimation of his capabilities, utterly laughable.

Situ Guixiong was the most promising rising star of the Situ Family, not just some genius who could suddenly jump out and provoke anyone he liked. To share the arena with him would be like a moth to a flame, an utter act of futility.

“That’s why after all these years, you are still merely underlings, categorizing yourselves as wasted potential, with no prospects for the future,”

Li Xiaobai said lightly, leaving behind the group with faces full of rage as he calmly stepped onto the stairway.

“Tch, acting all high and mighty,”

“He’s just a cultivator from overseas. Does he really think the Immortals’ fleeting interest in him gives him the right to do as he pleases?”

“This guy won’t be arrogant for much longer. He has offended too many people today; Aolai Country can’t contain him anymore!”

“Just watch, he will probably surrender and give up after climbing for a bit!”

Behind him, a group of cultivators glared resentfully and spoke angrily.

They had enough guts to harm others in the shadows, but when it came to face-to-face confrontation, they lacked confidence—after all, they weren’t from major families, and didn’t dare to rashly involve themselves in grudges without knowing the other party’s background.

Li Xiaobai was well aware of this; they were just types who bullied the weak and feared the strong, no need to take them seriously.

At this moment, standing on the steps, the numbers on the System interface pulsed even more vigorously.

[Attribute Points +1100…]

[Attribute Points +1200…]

[Attribute Points +1300…]

[…]

With each step he took, the number of Attribute Points he gained increased even more.

Indeed, the Linglong Pagoda was a great treasure, perfect for leveling up quickly.

The first flight of stairs was not much of a challenge for the cultivators; with a bit of effort, they could successfully climb it.

However, the difficulty began to increase noticeably from the second layer.

Li Xiaobai saw quite a few cultivators getting stalled on the second layer’s steps, shuffling their feet for a long while, yet unable to ascend even one more step.

The pressure involved was clearly considerable.

“Haha, Brother Beichen, let’s make a bet today and see who can reach the fifth layer first, shall we?”

Dongfang Mingyue laughed heartily, striding forward with a booming voice.

“I remember last year, Brother Dongfang stopped at the ninety-fifth step of the fourth layer, and Brother Beichen at the ninety-seventh. Surely this year both of you should be able to step onto the fifth layer.”

Nangong Wan said with a chuckle, feeling that now the gathering seemed a bit more like a convention of geniuses. What was the point of all that fawning over Long Xue?

“It’s a pity that today we are destined to be the supporting cast. With Young Master Li here, there’s no chance for us to grab the spotlight.”

Beichen Shixi glanced at Li Xiaobai, who was leisurely trailing behind, and spoke indifferently. This person was capable of instantly killing those at the Mahayana Realm, so reaching the top would surely be a minor issue for him.

“Indeed, it’s quite exciting, isn’t it? None of us have ever reached the seventh layer. I really want to see what Immortal Long’s boudoir looks like.”

Dongfang Mingyue also expressed his anticipation, only to receive eye rolls from the other two.

Others strive to reach the top for fame and to challenge their own limits, yet you, my friend, aspire to reach the summit just to enter Immortal Long’s boudoir. If the Immortal knew this, she might die of anger.

“Enough chatter. We cannot fathom Young Master Li’s capabilities; let’s hurry up and focus on honing ourselves – that’s the key.”

Nangong Wan said solemnly, her figure flickering as she quickly vanished up the stairs, with the other two swiftly following suit, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

“Worthy of being the geniuses from the three ancient families, they are truly extraordinary!”

The surrounding cultivators admired them, for here, the disparity between the talents was displayed in its full glory. Even among geniuses, the gaps were heaven and earth apart.

While some leaped straight to the higher floors, others were still wrestling with each tier of stairs, which was a bit of a blow to one’s pride.

Behind them, Li Xiaobai still walked steadily, swaying leisurely without any sense of urgency.

Once he reached the second layer, the increment of Attribute Points started from two thousand.

[Attribute Point +2000…]

[Attribute Point +2100…]

[Attribute Point +2200…]

By this calculation, each layer would add a thousand Attribute Points of damage. By reaching the seventh layer, it should directly add seven thousand Attribute Points.

These Attribute Points are equivalent to the full-force strike of a cultivator in the late or even peak stages of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

No wonder these geniuses find it hard to reach the top. Ordinary people can hardly withstand such pressure.

But for Li Xiaobai, who possessed the System, this was hardly an issue. To be honest, he didn’t feel the pressure from the stairs at all; it was all converted into Attribute Points.

The reason for his slow progress was that Li Xiaobai was scheming how to inconspicuously take the giant pearl at the top.

That object was even more lustrous than the twenty-three Mermaid’s Essences from the Eastern Sea, undoubtedly containing vast Spiritual Power. Devouring it with Hellfire would be immensely beneficial.

Yet, with cultivators all over the stairs and Long Xue monitoring from below, making a move would be quite difficult.

“Look, those overseas cultivators are climbing faster than the geniuses from the major families; they’ve already reached the fifth layer!”
