Starting from the first floor again wasn't really bothersome for Long Chen.
If anything, it was useful.
The trials were easy at this level—far below what he'd already experienced in the back mountains of the Dugu Clan. But they gave him time to familiarize himself with the combat experience Azazel had passed to him. Techniques, footwork patterns, battle instincts that came from centuries of warfare.
The format was still the same as the Dugu Clan Tower.
Floors one through ten, he'd encountered demon beasts of increased strength and numbers.
Floor eleven onward, humanoid opponents with actual martial techniques and combat intelligence.
The first floor guardian had been a warm-up, the second floor brought two beasts attacking in coordination. The third floor was more aggressive, testing his reaction speed.
Long Chen cleared each floor methodically, taking his time to observe patterns and test different techniques.
