Chapter 708 - Strike!
Chapter 708: Strike!
“Travel 50 kilometers in two hours. It doesn’t sound difficult, but we still have to be careful.” Lou Qianxue activated the Glimpse of Floating Light and traveled at a rapid pace. At the same time, her mind pulsated as she quickly extended her mental sense ahead of her.
“Hmm?” She paused. “An inscription? Gravitational Force Inscription? I see!”
Lou Qianxue’s footsteps slowed down a little.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lou Qianxue cast “Feather-light Inscription” on her legs, then continued her journey.
In contrast, many participants grumbled. “Oh no, oh no! I thought the second assessment would be easy. Turns out the tough part is here!”
A small portion of participants instantly slowed down.
Most of them continued to move forward.
A while later…
“Gasp! I finally passed the Gravitational Force Inscription area. My “Feather-light Inscription” is about to be depleted too. Seems like Zhen Guogong calculated everything precisely when he designed the second assessment!”
After traveling with ease for a short distance…
“‘Decelerating Inscription’… Luckily, I prepared many inscriptions before coming to the tournament. The ‘Accelerating Inscription’ can counter the ‘Decelerating Inscription’!”
This section caused more people to lag behind.
Meanwhile, Lou Qianxue maintained an average speed.
She just wanted to complete the test. She did not intend on being the first as Zhen Guogong had not mentioned that the first to reach the destination would be the winner of the test.
After a while,
“More traps! What a surprise! Interesting! I wonder what else is waiting for us on the path ahead.”
“An obstacle…”
“Hmm? An illusory realm too…”
“…”
The way from the Fengshan Phoenix Forest to Fengshan Hill was laid with obstacles after obstacles, putting all the contestants through a tough ordeal.
After a long period, many participants arrived at the foot of Fengshan Hill.
Plop!
Those who were completely burnt out instantly sat down.
“Hey! The final point is the battle stage atop the hill range. We have not reached the destination yet.
“We’re just a hill away. Let us rest for a while before we continue!”
More and more people sat down to rest…
Meanwhile, Zhen Guogong and the audience had long arrived at Fengshan utilizingtransportation.
When Lou Qianxue arrived at Fengshan Hill, she took a look around, then sat down as well.
Xu Tailang sat in front of the crowd together with Suo Yingying.
A while passed.
“Qianxue.” Lou Xiaoxiao huffed and puffed. “I finally made it…”
Lou Qianxue gave her a pill. “Eat this so that you will recover faster.”
“Yeah.”
More and more people arrived at the foot of the hill.
When all the juniors of the Lou family had absorbed the medicinal power of the pills, Lou Qianxue stood up and said to them, “Let’s go.”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The group darted into the distance.
Xu Tailang, who had closed his eyes in meditation, opened them and frostily looked at Lou Qianxue’s back. He asked, “Yingying, how is your recovery now?”
“Brother Xu.” Suo Yingying stood up. “I have fully recovered. I’m sorry to make you wait for so long. If it weren’t for me, you would’ve reached the top of the hill by now…”
“It’s alright.” Xu Tailang curled his lips. “Setting off now is just right. Yingying, let’s go! Go ahead first! Don’t care about me.”
“Brother Xu…”
“Go!”
“Okay!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two of them flashed into the distance like bolts of lightning.
A while later,
“Hmph, Lou Qianxue! You want to reach the peak before me? Dream on!” A frosty voice suddenly rang out.
At the same time…
Boom!
A gust of wind accompanied with a fist mercilessly attacked Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue paused. “Sister Xiaoxiao, leave with Lou Feng and the rest.”
“Qianxue!” Lou Xiaoxiao worriedly gazed at her.
“Don’t worry, Sister Xiaoxiao.” Lou Qianxue persuaded her. “Go on.”
