Seeing the scene on the stage, Malcolm suddenly stood up and stared fixedly at the back of Joelson, as if trying to find some sense of familiarity.

He had never seen him before!

No one in the Dragon Blood Clan could match up to this youth in front of him.

But it was impossible that no one had ever heard of this youth's terrifying talent.

"It could be someone who was lucky enough to obtain a portion of the dragon's power after receiving the dragon's blood."

Someone analyzed, "Judging from the extent of his dragonification, it's obviously not high. Some of it seems unorthodox."

"In this world, other than the people from the Dragon Blood Clan, who else can obtain the favor of the dragon?"

Someone retorted.

Oswede pondered and suddenly said, "There's one more person. You might have forgotten."

Everyone frowned. Their faces were filled with confusion. Then, as if they had thought of something, their eyes widened.

"Could it be him?"

Before everyone could say that name.

The youth on the steps had already moved.

After half-dragonizing, Joelson's physical strength had already reached the peak of saint-level. He did not even need platinum power. He forcefully took the 41st step.

The pressure doubled compared to the pressure on the 40th step.

However, no matter how terrifying the pressure was, it was unable to make Joelson's back bend.

Joelson's pupils, which had already turned dark gold, appeared somewhat ferocious and cold. He frowned and his entire face appeared ferocious.

The platinum power covered Joelson's entire body.

Joelson suddenly rushed forward.

His entire body was like an extremely sharp blade, breaking through the pressure in front of him.

Forty-two, forty-three, forty-four, forty-five!

Compared to the terrifying aura from before, he actually reached the forty-fifth step in an instant.

The pressure was like a tsunami whistling, crashing down one wave after another.

His body swayed and fell back but he forced himself to straighten up bit by bit, standing on the steps against the pressure.

The saint-levels at the bottom of the steps were all stunned.

Their mouths were wide open, and their faces were full of shock.

"The 45th... The 45th step!"

"God of Magic! He has reached the same level as the Holy Zither and the one in the Dragon Blood Clan!"

"And he rushed up in one breath!"

"Could it really be him?"

Everyone looked at each other. In the end, someone said the name that they had guessed.

"Joelson Edward?"

"Joelson Edward, the pillar of stars suppression, the sun radiance level genius that has never been seen before?"

"It's said that he has two saint-level dragons. It's very possible that he could think of using dragon blood to irrigate himself."

"It's rumored that Joelson Edward is not even twenty years old and his looks are too young. This point can be matched."

"Not even 20 years old! Saint-level? Are you kidding me?"

Saint-level powerhouses discussed animatedly. They were all guessing Joelson's identity and...

They were looking forward to whether he could take another step forward.

Joelson could hear all the muscles and bones in his body making a slight sound of collision under the immense pressure as if they would collapse under the weight at any moment.

Joelson narrowed his eyes. He still wanted to take another step forward.

His current position was not his limit.

There was still a lot of dragon blood power remaining in his blood vessels and bone marrow.

It was a good opportunity to use it to its full potential.

Joelson took a deep breath.

"He's ready to ascend the 46th step!"

The saint-level masters below cried out in surprise.

That was a place that even the two geniuses of the saint-level, the Holy Zither and the member of the Dragon Blood Clan, who were publicly acknowledged by the saint-level, had never been able to ascend.

A mysterious youth with an unknown identity had actually reached this step on his first step on the stairway of the gods.

Was he trying to create a new legend?

Oswede and Malcolm stared at the back of Joelson, their eyes filled with complicated emotions.

They had just come down from the stairway of the gods. One was scared off by the pressure of the 37th floor, while the other was unable to withstand the pressure of the 35th floor.

The two of them knew how terrifying the pressure on the stairway of the gods was.

The pressure of the 36th floor had already reached a level that made them despair and fear. But the 46th floor...

How terrifying would the pressure be?

And a youth younger than them was currently challenging the level and reached heights that they could not look up to.

The huge difference made the two feel bitter.

The pressure on Joelson's back had changed from a small hill to the weight of a small mountain. When he stepped out with his right foot, he actually began to tremble unconsciously.

The pressure was too great.

Even after dragonification, it was somewhat difficult to bear.

The invisible pressure caused the surface of Joelson's muscles and skin to ripple like the surface of water.

A wild look shot out from his eyes.

He opened his mouth, revealing the teeth that had become somewhat long and sharp after he had turned into a half-dragon. He looked slightly ferocious.

He stepped out heavily and completely stood on the 46th step.

The pressure fell like an avalanche. Joelson's pupils constricted slightly and his body collapsed abruptly.

"Ah!"

A series of exclamations sounded from below the steps.

"No! He can't withstand the pressure of the 46th step. He's going to retreat!"

"Yeah, even the Holy Zither and the member of the Dragon-Blood Clan haven't reached that height. How could he do it?"

"If it's really Joelson Edward, then he should be proud enough. He's much younger than the Holy Zither and member of the Dragon-Blood Clan."

"Knight-King! Look!"

Suddenly, someone cried out in surprise.

Everyone widened their eyes. They only saw that Joelson, who was supposed to be unable to withstand the pressure, was actually lifting and straightening his back bit by bit.

On the side that no one could see, Joelson bit his lips tightly. Blood flowed down but his eyes were terrifyingly calm.

Joelson felt his bones burning. His body temperature was frighteningly high.

The remaining dragon blood power in his bloodline and bone marrow was quickly fusing into his body. The strength of his body was rapidly increasing in a short period of time.

On the contrary, Joelson's appearance gradually returned to normal.

The dragon scales and dragon horns all shrank back. Only his pair of eyes became more and more resplendent, like a burning golden flame.

Noble. Arrogant. And cold.

Joelson straightened his back completely. At this moment, other than a pair of golden eyes that were like stars, he was no different from an ordinary person.

The dragonification was the secret technique of dragon blood, in a sense. It represented the concentration of the dragon bloodline in his body.

The higher the concentration, the higher the degree of dragonification. The Dragon Blood Clan regarded this as a standard to assess the talent of their descendants.

However, Joelson walked on a completely different path from the dragon blood family.

He shattered the power of the dragon blood and fused it into his own bone marrow and blood. This was equivalent to creating a bloodline that only belonged to him!

Perhaps one day, the Edward family's bloodline would be even more powerful and noble than the dragon bloodline!

Joelson completely withstood the pressure of the 46th step. His seemingly thin body stood on the step.

Like a mountain peak, many saint-level masters looked up.

Each of their faces was filled with disbelief.

Suddenly, someone shouted excitedly, "No matter who he is, he has already surpassed the Holy Zither and the Dragon-Blood Clan!"

That's right!
