…
Qian Wu was frustrated and furious at the same time.
As an existence at the pinnacle of the Rebirth State, he was naturally unwilling to be left behind by others. However, this round was a test of one's physical fitness.
In other words, no matter how high his cultivation state was, he would not be able to stand out in this round due to his lack of physical strength.
However, this did not mean that Qian Wu's physical fitness was not good enough.
In fact, Qian Wu's physical strength was much higher than the other elites of the same cultivation state. This was because he did not grow up in the palace. This also meant that he was not as noble and pampered as the other princes.
However, he still lost to two people.
One was a youth dressed in a dark green robe, and the other was Nangong Mu.
He was not surprised that the youth dressed in a dark green robe was able to surpass him in this round. This was because he was very clear of his opponent's identity.
They were both at the pinnacle of the Rebirth State. More importantly, he was a 'beast'!
The War Pinnacle Empire.
An empire that revered martial prowess.
Different from the other three empires, the War Pinnacle Empire also valued the study of the Law of Dao. However, it was more focused on 'martial prowess'.
And the youth dressed in a dark green robe was the absolute representative of this empire's' martial prowess'.
The number one prodigy of the War Pinnacle Empire.
Yan Qing.
A human who was raised by a group of beasts since birth. Similarly, he was a monster who possessed the gift of 'indestructible'.
Competing with Yan Qing in terms of physical fitness?
Qian Wu did not think about it. However, he did not expect that Yan Qing was not the only one who was above him. There was also Nangong Mu.
How could he tolerate this?
Hence, Qian Wu risked his life.
He focused all his attention on climbing up the cliff. He focused all his attention on rushing up the cliff. He almost entered a state of 'forgetting about everything around him'.
However, what was the meaning of a rock falling from the cliff?
As a person at the pinnacle of the Rebirth State, how could Qian Wu be hit by a rock? This was impossible. Even though his attention was not on top of him.
However, he still reacted.
"Aiyo, who … threw a rock?!" After cursing, Qian Wu also moved. At the moment when the rock was about to fall, he used his hand to push against the rock. Then, with a nimble flip of his body, he actually managed to flip over the rock.
Unfortunately …
There were two rocks!
Qian Wu flipped the first piece, but he did not flip the second one.
"…" Qian Wu stared blankly as the stone approached his face. He was speechless.
Leng Jun's handsome face directly hit the stone, or should it be said that the stone hit his face? All in all, Qian Wu's heart was on the verge of collapsing. His nose was so sore that his tears were about to fall.
"Cheating, this is cheating!" This was the only thought in Qian Wu's mind as he fell.
Not far away from Qian Wu, the contestants were all amazed by the scene. "Indeed, the second round isn't that simple. There's even a rock?"
…
Yan Qing dodged the two stones thrown by Fang Zhengzhi.
However, because of this, he stopped. Even though he stopped for less than a second, he was still overtaken by Nangong Mu.
"I, Yan Qing, have never lowered my head ever since I was born, and I have never been surpassed by anyone!" Yan Qing looked at Nangong Mu, who was above him, and his palm, which was inserted into the cliff, suddenly bent.
Then, his body instantly turned into a bow.
"Boom!" There was a loud explosion.
Yan Qing's body was thrown out. He only used one palm to throw his entire body out. Moreover, he was thrown onto a vertical cliff.
If he had to use a word to describe it …
It would be madness.
"Crack!" The moment Yan Qing landed on the cliff, his two palms once again dug into the rocks, forcefully using his strength to scratch out two holes on the cliff.
Gravel flew everywhere.
Then, Yan Qing's body started running on the cliff like a black panther, using both his hands and feet. Every time his hands and feet landed on the cliff, he would scratch out a hole.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi was originally prepared to throw another two stones to increase the difficulty, but he obviously did not have much time left.
Because Yan Qing's speed was too fast.
In just a few breaths, he had once again caught up to Nangong Mu.
And Nangong Mu naturally noticed Yan Qing who was rushing towards him again. His calm eyes emitted a trace of stubbornness and sharpness.
Similarly, he used both his hands and feet to rush up the cliff crazily.
"He's quite persistent!" Fang Zhengzhi naturally understood what Nangong Mu was thinking.
If Yan Qing was described as a ferocious beast, then Nangong Mu would be described as a "red carp" in a quiet river.
Two years?
Was the red carp finally going to transform into a dragon?
"Good, tied for first place!" When Yan Qing and Nangong Mu placed their hands on the cliff at almost the same time, Fang Zhengzhi immediately announced the result.
"First place? Tied? " When Yan Qing heard this, his body trembled visibly. A beastly aura emanated from his body. However, he quickly nodded his head and leaped onto the cliff.
"What's your name?" Fang Zhengzhi asked.
"Yan Qing of the War Pinnacle Empire, greets the messenger!" Yan Qing bowed slightly, cupped his black fists, and greeted Fang Zhengzhi respectfully.
"Hmm, not bad!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded, then looked at Nangong Mu, who had also leaped up the cliff, and said, "Both of you have passed the second round of assessment!"
"Thank you, messenger!" Yan Qing and Nangong Mu thanked him in unison.
After thanking Fang Zhengzhi, Yan Qing slowly turned to look at Nangong Mu, his black skin faintly emitting a crystal-clear radiance.
"Your name is Nangong Mu?"
"That's right." Nangong Mu replied calmly.
"There are very few people who can make me want to fight. I hope to have a chance to fight with you in the next round!" Yan Qing sounded evidently excited.
"Anytime!" Nangong Mu nodded calmly.
Yan Qing didn't say anything else. After getting Nangong Mu's reply, he turned and walked to the side, then found a place to sit down.
Nangong Mu, on the other hand, turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi. His calm eyes sized Fang Zhengzhi up, then he quietly retreated to the side.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at Nangong Mu and smiled. He knew that Nangong Mu wasn't stupid, but he also knew that Nangong Mu wasn't completely confident.
Without saying anything else, Fang Zhengzhi looked down the cliff again.
Very soon.
Yan Xiu also leapt up.
He also looked at Fang Zhengzhi silently, then he walked to Nangong Mu's side and stood there coldly, not saying a word.
"Third place, Great Xia Dynasty's Western Liang Yan Xiu!"
"Fourth place …"
"Fifth place …"
"…"
"Ninth place, the prince of the Holy Barbarian Empire, Qian Wu?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Qian Wu's gloomy face and sighed in his heart.
He actually made it?
Just now, he clearly saw Qian Wu falling down.
To be able to climb back up, it was a miracle. Even Qian Wu, who displayed miraculous abilities, ended up in last place.
"Tenth place, eliminated!"
"Eliminated? Why? Didn't they say that there were ten slots for the second round? "A youth in embroidered robes struggled to climb up, clearly in disbelief.
This was because, at the foot of the mountain, the three Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples had made it very clear.
In the second round, the top ten would be chosen!
"Yes, there are ten!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded lightly.
"Then … why would I …"
"Because, one of the slots is mine!" Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"Senior Kong Qing's slot?!"
"What? Senior Kong Qing is also participating in the third round?! "
"Isn't Senior Kong Qing already a disciple of the Heaven Dao Pavilion? Why would he participate in the third round of the Heaven Dao Pavilion selection test? This … What's going on? "
The contestants who were standing around could not react to Fang Zhengzhi's words. A Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple participating in the selection test?
This had never happened before!
Furthermore, most importantly, this was obviously not fair!
"How can we be compared to Senior Kong Qing?"
"That's right!"
"Competing with Senior Kong Qing? This … I still want to wait until I enter the Heaven Dao Pavilion, to follow Senior Kong Qing and learn from him! "
Almost half of the contestants could not understand the reason behind this, and this caused all sorts of strange thoughts to emerge in their minds.
Insider information?
Black box manipulation!
But, what was the purpose of allowing Senior Kong Qing to participate in the third round of the selection test with them? If one were to talk about the inside story, then the inside story was a little too deep!
"Because, he's not Kong Qing, he's an imposter!" At this moment, a voice rang from the bottom of the cliff.
"Imposter?!"
"Who's slandering Senior Kong Qing again?"
"Didn't we just prove that Senior Kong Qing is the real one?"
Upon hearing this voice, the contestants subconsciously looked down the cliff. No one believed it, because, such a farce had already happened once.
Could it be that there was another person who wanted to end up like Sima Feng?
This was the thought in everyone's mind.
However, when a huge figure flew up from the bottom of the cliff, everyone's eyes widened in an instant.
Green Flame Beast!
Of course, this was not the most important thing, the most important thing was that there was a person standing on the back of the Green Flame Beast, a person with messy hair, wearing only a thin inner shirt.
The cold wind blew past, blowing the tattered inner shirt open.
This was a person who looked somewhat disheveled.
