By this time, only a handful of Inner Sect Disciples remained within the Heart Demon Tower. According to statistics from the Qingyun Sect's Elders, 760 Inner Sect Disciples had reached the second floor, half of the total participants. Only 320 reached the third floor, and a mere 75 made it to the fourth. From there, only 30 reached the fifth floor, and just over a dozen passed it to arrive at the sixth.
Now, only those who had entered the seventh floor remained. Including Ye Qingchen, there was a total of five. However, two of those disciples had been eliminated by the immense pressure the moment they set foot on the seventh floor. Just as Ye Qingchen entered, the other two remaining Inner Sect Disciples passed its trial and entered the eighth floor. They lasted less than two seconds before being eliminated by the overwhelming pressure.
