"The reason is simple …"
Under the questioning of Core disciple Yuan Zhi and the scrutiny of the 3 Elders, Zhao Feng's tone was calm and relaxed.
Everyone was slightly surprised. Of the 3 Elders, 1st Elder and the gold robed Elder Xue couldn't help but reveal a sliver of interest.
After so many years, there weren't many low levelled disciples that could remain calm in front of Elders at the True Spirit Realm.
The eyes of the 3 Elders were like torches, bringing with them a heavy pressure. It was as if all lies in front of them were like snow under the sun.
"Zhao Feng, there are many suspicious points about you. If you hide anything, you won't be able to escape our eyes."
Hai Yun Master, who was dressed in white, had a cold gaze and an expressionless face, but he gave off a powerful aura.
Indeed.
There were many suspicious points about Zhao Feng. He was only at the 1st Sky of the Ascended Realm, but he had it the easiest in the mission and he was the one that defeated the Blood Corpse Protector.
Only he had gone through the entire mission and he hadn't missed a single detail.
At this moment in time, the cave was dead silent, as if the air had been frozen by the auras of the 3 True Spirit Realm.
Everyone was waiting for Zhao Feng's answer.
Quan Chen, who was behind Hai Yun Master, revealed a gloating expression. Zhao Feng came from a lowly background and under the questioning of the Elders and Core disciples, the slightest mistake could result in his death.
"Why was I the only one that lasted till the end? Why was I the only one that could resist the corpse poison? Why was I the one that controlled the situation the most? Why was I the only one that had the least injuries … There's only one answer. "
Zhao Feng's voice was like rolling steel balls, full of confidence and power.
Everyone paused and couldn't keep up with his tempo. Lin Fan and the rest of them felt as though they were unable to breathe.
"Because in the group - I'm the strongest!"
Zhao Feng's eyes flashed with sharpness as he used the simplest and most direct method to reply.
What was the reason? Because I'm the strongest!
Why was I the one that lasted till the end? Because I'm the strongest!
Why was I the only one that could resist the corpse poison? Because I'm the strongest!
All the problems could be easily solved with only five words — Because I am the strongest!
Zhao Feng knew very well that even if he could answer and explain these doubts, the other party would definitely come up with countless tricky questions on this basis. Under the scrutiny of the three True Spirit Elders, the slightest carelessness would expose his doubts and even the secret of his left eye.
Because I am the strongest!
When Zhao Feng gave such a concise answer, everyone present was slightly shocked.
Xu Ren, Lin Fan, and Xiao Sun all had complicated expressions on their faces. Thinking about Zhao Feng's performance during the mission, they couldn't refute him at all. Instead, the more they thought about it, the more convinced they became.
From the beginning to the end, Zhao Feng had been able to control the situation, not only because he was calm and clear-headed, but also because of his formidable strength.
Strength was the foundation of the world of sects.
Strength could represent everything!
That was why Zhao Feng gave such an answer.
"Shameless boasting!"
Hai Yun Master snorted.
Hahaha …
Yuan Zhi and Quan Chen looked at each other and started to laugh.
1st Elder and Elder Xue had weird expressions on their faces. They didn't think that Zhao Feng would answer in such a concise way.
From the expressions of Lin Fan, Xiao Sun, and Xing Chen, it wasn't hard for 1st Elder to guess that this might be the truth.
If Zhao Feng really was the strongest in the team, then all these suspicions would vanish like a puff of smoke.
At this moment, the 3 Elders looked at each other and exchanged glances.
At their level, they could communicate with each other through their spiritual sense.
Finally, it was Quan Chen who stood out from the group and volunteered.
"Zhao Feng, I heard that you stalled the Protector Blood Corpse for a while. Is this true?"
Quan Chen said with a mischievous expression.
"That's right."
Zhao Feng knew that since Quan Chen was willing to volunteer, it meant that he had the approval of the 3 Elders.
Now, it was time to test his true strength.
"How strong was the Protector Blood Corpse?"
Quan Chen continued.
"Close to the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm, but considering that he was heavily injured and his limbs were stiff, he was at least at the peak 3rd Sky."
Zhao Feng said calmly.
No one had any objections to his analysis.
Normally, a body that had been refined by corpses would increase in strength, offense, and speed, but it would be less agile. After all, there was no perfect lifeform and no perfect skill.
But in reality, Zhao Feng's evaluation of the Protector Blood Corpse had been lowered a little. This was because the Protector Blood Corpse could release a mysterious poison that no one under the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm could block. And at the last moment, the Protector Blood Corpse's strength had exceeded the 3rd Sky.
"Peak 3rd Sky? Haha, perfect. My cultivation is at the peak 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm. Since you were able to stall the Protector Blood Corpse for a while, then as long as you can last 10 moves against me, we'll all acknowledge your strength. "
Quan Chen's eyes twinkled.
From his words, one could tell that he was extremely confident.
Back then, he had stepped on all the experts of the Guanjun Palace and he had even defeated Zhao Feng's Master, Lord Guanjun, right in front of him.
Now that he was facing a disciple that had lost to him, he didn't put him in his eyes at all.
"Can your words represent everyone? Can you represent the Elders?"
Zhao Feng snickered coldly, as if he couldn't be bothered to attack.
"Yes!"
Hai Yun Master's voice was filled with coldness.
1st Elder and Elder Xue both nodded their heads.
It was obvious that they all agreed on this result.
Quan Chen's cultivation was at the peak 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm and his strength was on par with the Protector Blood Corpse, so he could 'test' Zhao Feng's strength.
"Good, then let's begin."
Zhao Feng's figure flickered as he arrived next to the blood pond and said, "This is where I fought with the blood zombies."
Even the terrain was the same as before, which made it more suitable for the situation.
Everyone nodded their heads and they opened up a space.
At this moment, more and more people came to watch.
This included Old Zhang of the Clan Mission Division, who looked worriedly at Zhao Feng.
"Brother Zhao, let the first move begin …"
As soon as Quan Chen said this, he waved his hand and a few feet long streak of light flashed towards Zhao Feng.
The Cold Moonlight Mark was like an icy blade in the winter and before the attack even arrived, a bone-chilling coldness could be felt.
Xu Ren and the other two, who were further away, all felt the coldness.
"Junior Brother Quan Chen is using the Mortal High Class Skill, Frost Moon Manual! This Cold Moonlight Mark isn't something I can block. "
Xu Ren's breathing quickened, as if he was in Zhao Feng's shoes.
Cold Moon Manual! High class Mortal skill!
Quan Chen had used his strongest attack right from the start and those under the 3rd Sky of the Ascended Realm couldn't block it.
"Illusion Fish Transformation!"
Zhao Feng was like an illusion fish and his eyes seemed to be able to see the changes of a fish. It felt like it was right in front of him, but in reality, it was far away.
The moment he moved, the eyes of the 3 Elders flashed.
Shua!
The Cold Moonlight Mark missed Zhao Feng by a foot and missed.
On the other hand, Zhao Feng seemed to be standing on the same spot.
"What a profound movement skill!"
Everyone exclaimed and some couldn't help but cheer.
"This brat's understanding of the Illusion Fish Picture is similar to the refraction of light in water. There's a difference between the distance between the naked eye and the actual distance …"
Old Zhang's face was filled with shock.
Only he knew where Zhao Feng's movement skill came from.
Shua! Shua!
Quan Chen waved his hand and a few streaks of Cold Moonlight Marks flew towards Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng's figure was as agile as a fish and he used his movement skill to the maximum, hiding the Heavenly Wind True Force within his body.
The first 3 moves were all easily dodged by Zhao Feng.
How was this possible!?
Shock appeared on Quan Chen's face. He couldn't believe that an ant who was only at the 8th Sky of the Consolidated Realm a few months ago had grown to the point where he could fight with him.
"Don't get cocky! I only used 60% of my strength just then. "
As soon as Quan Chen finished his words, his figure flashed and he seemed to turn into moonlight as he closed in on Zhao Feng with moonlight ripples on his palm.
Heavenly Wind Wind Manual - Breaking Wind Palm!
Zhao Feng's movement skill was still as agile as a fish, but he used the moves from the Heavenly Wind Qi Technique.
The Heavenly Wind Qi Technique was only the simplified version of the Heavenly Wind God Technique and when Zhao Feng used it, it was comparable to Quan Chen's High class Mortal Cold Moon Manual.
Puuu …
Zhao Feng was like a fish swimming through the gaps between the corals as he used the Heavenly Wind Qi Technique's True Force and moves to easily deal with the remaining power.
Four moves … Five moves … Six moves!
Soon, half of the 10 moves had passed.
Zhao Feng's movement skill and True Force became smoother and sharper, and his aura had reached the peak of the 1st Sky.
"This kid's movement skill is weird. It seems like there's a change in the array."
First Elder's eyebrows furrowed as he couldn't tell where Zhao Feng's movement skill came from.
"First Elder."
Old Zhang respectfully came in front of First Elder and whispered a few words.
"So that's how it is. This kid has such comprehension to be able to integrate arrays into his martial arts."
First Elder nodded his head and sent a message through his spiritual sense, "Don't worry, Martial Nephew Zhang. I will handle this fairly and won't be biased towards anyone."
Hearing First Elder's words, Old Zhang relaxed and thought to himself, "Zhao Feng, this is as far as I can help you. Let's see if you can continue to create miracles."
"Zhao Feng, your movement skill is indeed profound, but according to what I know, although the Blood Corpse's strength is limited, it's at least at the True Spirit Realm. How can it be tricked by your movement skill?"
Hai Yun Master suddenly interrupted.
According to the original plan, Zhao Feng only needed to last 10 moves against Quan Chen.
Zhao Feng could choose to fight head-on, or he could choose to go around in circles.
And now, Hai Yun Master seemed to want Zhao Feng to clash head-on with him, making things difficult for him. Although the Blood Corpse could see through Zhao Feng's movement skill, its agility was limited and it couldn't do anything to Zhao Feng.
First Elder's eyebrows furrowed as a weird expression appeared on his face. Why did Hai Yun Master want to make things difficult for Zhao Feng?
At this moment, Zhao Feng and Quan Chen had exchanged seven moves and there were only three left.
"As you wish, First Elder!"
Zhao Feng's voice was emotionless as he circulated his Heavenly Wind True Force to the maximum.
Lightning Wind Palm!
The thunderous palm energy exploded with great momentum.
Boom!
Zhao Feng successfully blocked Quan Chen's attack and the two retreated.
This scene shocked everyone in the field.
"Good chance! I'm about to break through!"
Zhao Feng felt the True Force in his body surging and breaking through a bottleneck. The remaining energy from the Blood Essence Pill a few days ago had been digested.
