Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 265 - 274: Ying Tianchou
Chu Linfeng smiled and said, "Isn’t it surprising? Who’s more surprised, you or me?"
"Brother Long, you’re really amazing. I almost can’t believe this is real," Wei Qun said, quite astonished.
"It’s indeed unexpected; you’ve hidden yourself too deeply, not honest at all!" Luo Er Mu looked at Chu Linfeng, a little resentful, as he couldn’t have imagined this guy to be so strong.
Chu Linfeng walked up to the Royal Guard and took the five thousand Star Stones, maintaining a calm expression on his face, not boasting for getting first place.
He knew there were at least a hundred people stronger than him, and he barely reached the Eighth Level of Earth Martial Realm, unable to surpass Luo Er Mu, only gaining victory due to his body’s defense power and the strength of Chaos Qi.
At this moment, Luo Ping walked over, seeing Chu Linfeng’s appearance, a flash of surprise crossed his face, and he said, "Not bad, reaching this position at such an age is really commendable. What’s your name?"
Looking at the Celestial Dragon Country’s first Grand General, Chu Linfeng said, "My name is Zhao Long!" Simple and straightforward, no excessive language.
"If I’m not mistaken, you haven’t broken through to the Celestial Martial Realm, have you? Your body’s defense power is surprisingly amazing indeed!"
"Not yet, Grand General, good eyesight!" Chu Linfeng still answered without arrogance or servility. Flattery for such a person could easily backfire.
Everyone at the training ground was shocked; a young man who hadn’t broken through to the Celestial Martial Realm won first place—a fact that was hard for everyone to accept, especially for those experts who reached the Celestial Martial Realm.
Many envious and jealous eyes were cast at Chu Linfeng. Although five thousand Star Stones isn’t much, it’s an invisible slap in the face, and it stings quite a bit.
The young man named Ying Tianchou almost had fire in his eyes; the first place should have been his, yet it was taken away by him.
He knew about the Gravity Chamber better than anyone; his Body Cultivation Martial Skill was practiced in the Gravity Chamber, even though the gravity in his family isn’t as strong as here, it’s not much different.
"Zhao Long, I hope you don’t disappoint me in the second round, or you’ll suffer in the Imperial City," Ying Tianchou muttered, staring at Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng saluted Grand General Luo Ping and then walked down, smiling slightly in Ying Tianchou’s direction.
"Alright! The first round has ended, now it’s time for the second round of testing. The second round is quite special, so only over a thousand people can be tested each day. Since many have exhausted too much Star Power in the first round, to be fair, everyone will rest tonight and test tomorrow morning.
The Token will display a new number. Everyone will follow the order of numbers: twelve hundred people on the first day, the same on the second day, and the final day for the rest.
Find your rest room according to the number on the Token, remember that fighting is strictly forbidden during this passage, discovery leads to disqualification, severe cases lead to execution."
These words from Luo Ping surprised many; those who intended to test Chu Linfeng’s strength had to forgo their intentions. After that, the crowd gradually moved to the resting area on the training ground.
"Brother Long, what’s your number?" Wei Qun asked in a low voice, daring not to be presumptuous with Chu Linfeng, fearing reprimands.
"I should be on the last day, and you should be too!" Chu Linfeng smiled, thinking those entering the chamber last should be ranked last.
"I’m going on stage tomorrow, isn’t that unlucky!" Wei Qun said with a sense of helpless amusement.
"Tomorrow? You’re within a thousand numbers?" Chu Linfeng was a bit surprised; logically, this shouldn’t happen, maybe he calculated wrong?
"Yes, my number is five hundred and ten! If you’re not there, I’m nervous!" Wei Qun looked at Chu Linfeng with helplessness and a face like bitter gourd.
"Don’t worry; I’ll watch tomorrow, it’ll help understand the situation better. Just give it your all, even if you can’t pass, there’s no need to complain, I’ll think of a way for you," Chu Linfeng said.
"I’m on the second day, will you come to watch me?" Luo Er Mu ran over to Chu Linfeng and asked.
"You? I won’t watch. With your strength, passing this second round shouldn’t be hard, but entering the top ten may be challenging," Chu Linfeng smiled, feeling unspeakable towards this girl.
"If not, forget it! What’s the big deal! He’s your brother and you go, I’m not your brother so you won’t? Well, I considered you a friend, are you looking down on me because you got first place?" Luo Er Mu asked with a harsh voice, looking terrifying.
Chu Linfeng was left speechless; true, it’s difficult to deal with women and petty people, he just casually said something yet received such a strong reaction.
"You’re overthinking; Wei Qun hasn’t broken through to Celestial Martial Realm, so I’m naturally worried about him. You are already a Celestial Martial Realm expert, you’ll easily pass; my presence wouldn’t help and it’s better to absorb more Star Power in the resting room. Also, how have I not considered you a friend?" Chu Linfeng spoke after about a minute.
Luo Er Mu looked at Chu Linfeng and said, "You said I can’t enter the top ten, I’ll let you see this time, shall we bet?"
"What do we bet?" Chu Linfeng asked, always curious about this girl, declaring her ability to enter the top ten needing strong strength.
"Simple, if I can make it to the top ten, you must enter the top three. If I make it, you can’t, then you lose," Luo Er Mu immediately said.
Chu Linfeng was stunned; not to mention the top three, even entering the top ten seemed far-fetched, competing in attack power with Celestial Martial Realm people is a losing effort.
"I won’t agree; the top three, even the tenth is impossible now, I’m just in the Eighth Level of Earth Martial Realm. You want to knock me down, but not so hard!" Chu Linfeng said with a bitter smile, this girl sure has high expectations.
"Seems you lack courage, surprisingly so timid for a first-place winner, it’s unexpected. Aren’t you planning to surprise everyone at the end again?" Luo Er Mu smiled, eyes fixed on Chu Linfeng, aware if he lied.
"I’m telling the truth, believe it or not, it’s up to you. Making the top hundred would be nice; top three? Laughable!" Chu Linfeng finished and followed the people ahead.
Soon arriving at the resting area’s accommodation zone, the rooms are temporary but vast, disappearing into the horizon.
Every room is numbered, corresponding with the Tokens; Chu Linfeng and Wei Qun’s numbers are too far apart, so they naturally can’t stay together.
Upon finding his room, Chu Linfeng pushed the door open and walked in. The room’s layout is simple, a bed, a table, a water tank, and a wooden basin.
A quilt on the bed, a teapot, and a teacup on the table, not even a stool, indeed sparse.
Chu Linfeng didn’t care about these items; for him, they’re dispensable, and to most they’re unnecessary, as everyone should be absorbing Star Power without sleeping at night.
Sitting at the edge of the bed, Chu Linfeng slowly circulated the Chaos Qi within, today he awakened a bit more Bloodline Power, which excited him. Though small, it seemed he found a breakthrough, sitting on the bed unable to calm down for quite a while...
