Chapter 88:I Didn’t Think He Would Be So Kind
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“What’s wrong with that?”
...Su Chen raised his eyebrows and said in a serious tone, “Just now, Junior Sister gave me this stone, which means that it is already mine. It’s natural for me, as a senior brother, to give it to you!”
“No…Senior brother, that’s not what I meant…”
Mu Qingxue shook her head gently and wanted to say something else.
However, Su Chen did not give her a chance to speak. He waved his hand and said, “It’s getting late. Junior Sister, you should go back and rest early. Oh, you have to be careful when you face the Everlasting Sect and the Mystery Darkness Sect disciples tomorrow.”
Su Chen’s tone became more serious as he spoke.
Although he wasn’t afraid of Situ Feng and the others, it didn’t mean that the disciples of the Great Mystery Sect weren’t afraid.
If they were unprepared and rashly faced them, it was very likely that they would suffer a huge loss.
“I understand.”
Mu Qingxue replied with a helpless expression.
“Senior Brother, you should rest early too. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Alright.”
Su Chen nodded slightly. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and said again, “Oh, tell the others what I said just now. Tell them to be careful of the Everlasting Sect and the Mystery Darkness Sect disciples!”
“Alright, I’ll tell them later.”
Mu Qingxue nodded gently. Her light purple eyes looked deeply at Su Chen before she left his residence.
Outside the door, Mu Qingxue took a deep breath and took out the black stone from her storage ring. Her beautiful eyes fell on it.
For a moment, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
“I didn’t expect Senior Brother Su Chen to be so kind…”
As soon as she finished speaking, an old female voice echoed in her mind.
“Pay attention to your emotions.”
Then, the old female voice spoke again with a sigh, “A kind-hearted person like Su Chen is hard to find in this world!”
She was once very powerful and had experienced countless intrigues and conspiracies in the cultivation world for many years.
However, she had never seen someone as kind as Su Chen.
Now that she met him, even she couldn’t help but feel moved.
If she had such a good friend in the past, how could she have fallen into such a situation?
“The Everlasting Sect… We’ll wait and see tomorrow’s competition!”
Mu Qingxue’s purple eyes looked in the direction of the Everlasting Sect as she muttered.
“By the way, Master, will the first place in the Hundred Demon Battlefield’s qualification be rewarded with an earth-level upper-rank cultivation method?”
Mu Qingxue seemed to have thought of something, and her purple eyes lit up as she asked in her mind.
“Yes. If you become the champion, the imperial family of Dachu will reward you with an earth-level upper-rank cultivation method,” the old female voice said slowly.
She originally wanted to say that Mu Qingxue’s main goal was to get a spot to enter the secret land.
As for the ranking?
She didn’t have any hope.
Firstly, Mu Qingxue’s physique had not truly awakened.
Secondly, the participants were all the top prodigies of the Dachu Empire. Most of them were at the fifth level of the Qi Sea Realm, and each of them had a trump card.
With Mu Qingxue’s current strength, it would be difficult for her to get first place.
Buzz…
Soon, a divine sense penetrated into the black stone in Mu Qingxue’s hand.
The old female voice in Mu Qingxue’s mind fell silent.
After an unknown period, the old female voice slowly said, “Perhaps, you have a chance to win the first place…”
She had been very puzzled just now as to why Su Chen would return the stone to Mu Qingxue.
At this moment, she finally understood.
With the secret technique in this stone, it would definitely be easy for Mu Qingxue to get first place.
The next day.
The sun rose from the east, and purple mist shone upon Imperial Supreme City.
The entire city boiled with excitement as the sun ascended.
Countless people flocked to the west of the city.
In the center of the west of the city, there were two towering mountains.
Each mountain was tens of thousands of feet tall.
The peaks rose into the clouds, like two sharp swords stabbing into the west of the city.
It was said that…these two mountains were originally one. Later, they were split apart by a prince of the Dachu Empire with a great divine power to be used as a trial.
Right now.
These two peaks had already been set with formations.
All sorts of mysterious runes flickered in the air, emitting a terrifying pressure that made people’s hearts tremble.
The left peak was already filled with people.
The outer perimeter was surrounded by countless soldiers.
There were tens of thousands of young people inside.
Every one of them was in high spirits as they stood in front of the cliff, eager to give it a try.
“The content of the first stage is very simple. As long as you fly from this mountain to another, you pass! Only when we reach another mountain can we have the qualifications to continue the competition!”
A disciple from the Spirit Sword Sect stood in the crowd and looked at the broken cliff opposite him.
Such competitions had been held many times in the Darchu Empire in the past.
It was said that this rule had been passed down for several years. Anyone who had a slight understanding of Dachu’s history would probably know this rule.
This rule was set to quickly eliminate the participants.
There were tens of thousands of young people present.
Not only were there prodigies from various sects here but there were also disciples from the prominent families of the Darchu Empire.
If they were to compete one by one, it would probably take a long time.
Therefore, the Darchu Empire set this rule to eliminate those who held a fluke mentality
“There is a formation in the valley. Although the two mountains are not far away, it is not easy to fly over. In the previous competition, there were a total of 30,000 participants. However, nearly two-thirds of them were eliminated in the first stage alone!”
A young man who knew about the previous competitions said worriedly.
Especially those at the third level of the Qi Sea Realm.
Their spiritual power was not as strong as a Level Four or Five Qi Sea Realm cultivators, and with the formation in the valley, their chances of flying over were almost negligible.
“Master, can you see the formation in this valley?”
Mu Qingxue stood alone not far away. She ignored the burning gazes of the surrounding people and asked softly in her heart.
“This is just a low-level Entrapping Void Formation, nothing powerful. With me around, there’s nothing to worry about.”
The old female voice replied in Mu Qingxue’s mind.
“Entrapping Void Formation?”
Mu Qingxue nodded slightly when she heard this.
She had once learned about this formation in the Scripture Pavilion and knew that it was not particularly formidable.
At most, it increased the weight on the people trapped in the formation by a few hundred times.
In normal times, this kind of useless formation would not appear at all.
However, today, to those who were participating in the competition, it was almost a fatal existence.
Once the force they endured increased, the spiritual power in their bodies would accelerate its consumption.
If they weren’t careful and didn’t control the speed of spiritual power consumption, they would probably fall off the cliff instantly..
