Super Gene Hunting Ground

Actually, these eight people were already exhausted from running up to this point, and it was very difficult to accelerate further.

However, Yang Xiao's pace seemed to have surpassed theirs, and if he maintained his current speed, he would soon overtake all eight of them.

The stairwell wasn't very wide; at most, it could accommodate two people running side by side, and running three abreast was a bit cramped.

The person running in front had a sudden idea. By running two abreast, they blocked the path for Yang Xiao to overtake.

Yang Xiao, who was running vigorously, found his way forward blocked, and of course, he couldn't just barge through others, could he?

Yang Xiao had no choice but to slow down his pace and run alongside one of them.

Yang Xiao was now in the fourth row, with three rows ahead, each consisting of two people, and one person who had just been overtaken was behind him.

In the blink of an eye, everyone ran up another floor, reaching the 79th floor.

Yang Xiao felt the warm flow of energy gathering inside him getting stronger and stronger, and there was a desire in his heart to break through the obstacles and release the energy within.

Yang Xiao's feet accelerated again, and he dashed directly through the gap between the two people in the row ahead.

Both people in front were already very fatigued, both persevering by gritting their teeth. Startled by Yang Xiao's sudden impact, they involuntarily staggered and fell on the stairs.

"Hey, kid, what the hell are you doing?"

The person who was knocked down yelled angrily.

Yang Xiao ignored him; what he was focused on now was releasing the accumulated energy inside of him as quickly as possible to feel a refreshing sense of release. It was extremely frustrating to be held back by the people running in front.

After rushing past the third row, Yang Xiao successively surged past the second row, knocking down two more people.

The person who was hit burst into anger and shouted at Yang Xiao:

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?!"

Yang Xiao still did not respond.

He could not speak now; if he opened his mouth, he would lose his breath, and the warm flow within might be interrupted.

The two people in the first row were five or six steps ahead of the second row and had already become aware of what had happened behind them. They glanced back at the turn in the stairs and realized that Yang Xiao had caught up.

The two of them immediately gritted their teeth and sprinted with the last bit of their energy.

In a blink, everyone reached the 80th floor, then the 81st, with Yang Xiao only three steps behind the two people in front.

The two ahead, due to their sudden burst of speed, were now spent and on the verge of collapse. They continued to run high-speed, almost ready to break down. Neither wanted to be overtaken by Yang Xiao, nor did they want to be bumped.

Nevertheless, the sound of Yang Xiao's footsteps grew closer and more urgent behind them.

One of them, gasping for breath, sighed and slowed down a step, moving behind the other. This effectively yielded a pathway for Yang Xiao to overtake.

"Bro, brother, you, you're awesome, you go first."

The person panted out.

Before the person could finish speaking, Yang Xiao's figure had already leaped forward and overtaken the person in front.

The person in front wanted to struggle, but Yang Xiao's speed was increasing, and he opened up a gap of three steps between them and pulled further away.

Seeing this, the person finally despaired, slowed down, and waited for the others behind to catch up.

Since Yang Xiao had already snatched third place, there was no need for the few of them to continue the struggle. They simply slowed down and paced their breathing. After being pushed to run fiercely for several floors by Yang Xiao, they all felt they had reached their physical limits.

"Who was that just now?"

"Don't know."

"Never heard of such an awesome runner."

"Can this kid catch up with the Emperor and the Demon King?"

Privately, everyone referred to Wentian City's Gu Beifeng as the Emperor and Magic City's Du Tianxing as the Demon King.

"I don't think so; we're already at the 83rd floor, and the two Kings are at least two floors ahead of us."

...

Yang Xiao continued running, his entire body feeling great, maintaining this pace without any difficulty. Of course, it had become impossible to increase his speed further.

Soon, Yang Xiao reached the 85th floor, he raised his head to look ahead, and at the corner of the stairs above, it seemed that he saw a shadow.

Du Tianxing and Gu Beifeng were two floors ahead of the ten people behind them, and they were not too hurried, maintaining this distance advantage as they continued to run.

After reaching above the 80th floor, the two were down to their last breath, and it was impossible to speed up any further.

As the distance to the finish line on the 88th floor got closer, when the two ran past the 85th floor, they were already without any pressure; at this time, no one could surpass them.

Suddenly, the two heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from below, and both had a shock in their hearts.

"Holy shit, who's this? Are they going to catch up?"

"Hurry up and run, no matter who it is, if someone catches up in the last three floors, we, the two Kings, will lose face. Might as well jump off the 88th floor when it's over."

The two of them tried their utmost, struggling to speed up.

Yang Xiao kept a steady pace, continuously narrowing the distance between him and the two.

In the blink of an eye, Du Tianxing and Gu Beifeng had already stepped onto the 88th floor, victory in sight.

Yang Xiao had reached the middle corner of the stairs on the 87th floor, only a dozen or so steps away from the two.

The two heard the clear footsteps of Yang Xiao.

Holy shit!

The two of them exerted their last breath.

Yang Xiao suddenly accelerated, sprinting wildly.

When the two Kings reached the middle corner of the 88th floor, the distance between them and Yang Xiao was reduced to less than 8 steps.

"Charge!"

The two Kings shouted in unison, using the last bit of their strength to speed up and rush upwards.

Yang Xiao also accelerated.

The distance between the three began to shrink, 7 steps, 6 steps, 5 steps,

Yang Xiao had already run up right behind the two.

"Ah!"

The two Kings finally managed to rush out ahead onto the 88th floor, landing on the rooftop terrace, and immediately collapsed in the snow, gasping for air, not forgetting to turn their heads to look towards the stairwell to see who was so incredible to actually catch up with them, the two Kings.

"Ah!"

Yang Xiao also shouted out loud, rushing out the last step of the 88th floor, gasping for air.

However, he did not collapse, he was still able to stand, barely.

Standing on the rooftop's snowy ground was Master Long, his eyes fixed on Yang Xiao, emitting an unusual gleam.

"What's your name?"

"Yang Xiao."

"Yang Xiao? The dual City King of Nanmu City and Shanyun City, right?"

Yang Xiao nodded; it seems Master Long was well-informed about the City Kings.

Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing sat up from the snow, looking at Yang Xiao with a peculiar gaze. During these three days, the ones who caught their attention were those at the Advanced Stage of Enhanced Gene; not to mention Yang Xiao, a Primary Level of Enhanced Gene, even those at Intermediate Stage had difficulty getting close to them.

"Brother, what stage is your Genetic Evolution at? Could it be at the King Level?"

Gu Beifeng asked.

Yang Xiao smiled,

"Where, how can I compare with the two of you, I'm just at the Primary Level."

Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing were just about to stand up, but after hearing Yang Xiao's words, they sat back down in the snow again, saying in disbelief:

"Primary Level? Impossible, right?"
