"Your movement technique is simply marvelous!"
Li Lang exclaimed as they arrived at the other side of the lava river.
"Your speed is on par with some holy fire-level people. You must have used more than just movement skills to achieve such an effect, am I right? Do you have a speed-type talent? "Yi Yeyu did not look calm, but she could tell that something was up.
"Indeed, I activated my Rapid Speed talent and combined it with my speed-type skill." Lin Huang nodded. He did not expect Yi Yeyu to be able to tell, so he admitted it right away. However, he hid the fact that he had Seraphic Speed talent and only told her that it was Rapid Speed.
"You're only gold-level rank-2 now. Does that mean that your speed can increase after you get to gold-level rank-3 and complete gold-level?" Li Lang asked.
"Theoretically, yes." Lin Huang smiled and nodded. He did not tell her that he did not use his maximum speed earlier. Be it Seraphic Speed or Thunder Steps, he did not use his maximum speed.
"With such speed, it won't be a problem for us to escape if we're chased by someone powerful," Li Lang said and winked at Lin Huang.
Yi Yeyu rolled her eyes at Li Lang when she heard that.
Lin Huang smiled noncommittally. To him, almost no one below transcendent-level was a match for him. Even a complete gold-level human genius would not be able to defeat five complete gold-level double mutated monsters. If he encountered a transcendent that he could not defeat, the possibility of him escaping would be low even if he activated his Seraphic Speed and Thunder Steps to their maximum.
"When we were about to fall into the Crimson Alligator's mouth, you suddenly accelerated in mid-air. Is that because of your Rapid Speed talent?" Yi Yeyu suddenly recalled the sudden acceleration in mid-air. It was the first time she had seen someone use such a skill to accelerate in mid-air.
"Yes, the Rapid Speed talent allows me to adjust my speed within a certain range. I can even adjust my speed in mid-air." Lin Huang nodded.
"I heard that the Crimson Alligator has a terrifying defensive ability. You crushed the Crimson Alligator's head with just one kick. What kind of combat skill was that? How could it be so powerful? " Li Lang recalled how Lin Huang had killed the Crimson Alligator in a second when he heard Yi Yeyu asking about the acceleration.
"It was the Fatal Tactics. I used it together with the Army Attack Tactics. I was able to crush its head not because of my powerful attack, but because I stepped on its weak point, "Lin Huang explained. He wanted to hide his true ability as much as he could.
There was indeed a weak point on the Crimson Alligator's head. However, the one that Lin Huang had stomped on was not the weak point. Instead, he had crushed the hardest part of the Crimson Alligator's skull, killing it on the spot.
However, Lin Huang saw that the Crimson Alligator was dismembered by its own kind the moment it died. Even if Li Lang and the rest wanted to find evidence, they would not be able to. That was why they said that they were attacking its weak spot.
Yi Yeyu had heard that there was a weak point on the Crimson Alligator's head, but she had no idea where it was. She did not see where Lin Huang had stepped on, so she could not verify it.
"Let's go. The examiner left his footprints on the ground. He must be hoping that we can catch up to him after we cross the river." Lin Huang changed the topic and pointed at the clear footprints on the ground. He was afraid that he would expose himself if the both of them continued to ask.
As the examiner, Si Kongjian had purposely crossed the river to increase the elimination rate. However, he did not want the passing rate to be zero. If he didn't leave any footprints when he left just now, he was afraid that when the people behind him crossed the river, no one would know where he went. This wasn't the result he wanted.
"Will the squinty-eyed man continue to give us more trouble if we catch up to him so soon?" Li Lang started calling the examiner squinty-eyed like Lin Huang did.
"I don't think so. The elimination rate is very high now. Besides the three of us, everyone's Life Power is almost depleted after crossing the lava river. Even if he does not like us, he won't give us more trouble because the rest of us won't be able to handle it. " Lin Huang shook his head. He knew that the squinty-eyed Si Kongjian would know what he was doing. After all, it was just a training and he would not mess around.
Li Lang was relieved after hearing what Lin Huang said.
The three of them looked at the people on the other side of the river who were still thinking about how to cross the river. Li Lang looked helpless and waved at the people on the other side of the river. However, when he turned around, Lin Huang and Yi Yeyu saw his smirk.
The both of them shook their heads and ran towards the direction of the footprints. Li Lang chased after them immediately.
Seeing that Lin Huang and the other two had left the river, the rest of the people started to panic.
After the three of them left the lava river, they followed the footprints. In less than an hour, they caught up with the examiner, Si Kongjian, who was strolling leisurely.
Si Kongjian was surprised to see the three of them. However, there was no staff who reported that they had broken the rules. It could only mean that the three of them had passed the test with their own abilities. He did not say anything and ran far away with the three of them.
Lin Huang and the other two followed behind Si Kongjian about ten meters away. They were chatting but it had nothing to do with the training.
"Yi Donglai is your great-grandfather?! No wonder your surname is Yi! " Li Lang stared at Yi Yeyu with his eyes wide open. Si Kongjian turned around and looked at Yi Yeyu when he shouted.
As an examiner, Si Kongjian had heard rumors that someone from the Yi family had come. However, he had no idea if the person was a man or a woman or what their name was. This was because no transcendent could participate in the process of Yi Yeyu leveling up to transcendent. Otherwise, she would not be able to ignite her Life Fire. Since Yi Donglai did not say anything, the rest of them did not dare to ask about it. They only heard rumors and Si Kongjian even doubted if the rumors were true.
However, after sizing Yi Yeyu up, Si Kongjian was able to confirm Yi Yeyu's identity. This was because he knew one of Yi Yeyu's cousins and Yi Yeyu looked very similar to her.
"I didn't expect you to be from the military's Yi family. Can you help me get an autograph from your great-grandfather when we get out of here? "Li Lang raised his eyebrow at Yi Yeyu.
"No!" Yi Yeyu rejected him directly.
"Why? We're friends now, right? It's just a autograph. Do you have to be so stingy? "Li Lang continued to pester her.
"Who's friends with you? We just met yesterday. "Yi Yeyu did not expect Li Lang to be so thick-skinned.
"Let me ask you, are you friends with Lin Huang?" Li Lang suddenly asked.
"Erm … I guess so!" Yi Yeyu glanced at Lin Huang and answered.
"If you admit that you're friends with Lin Huang, then I'm friends with Lin Huang too." A wisp of slyness flashed across Li Lang's eyes as he continued to pester endlessly. "A friend of a friend is naturally a friend as well."
"Of course not!" Yi Yeyu denied again.
…
Around five or six o'clock in the evening, someone finally caught up with Lin Huang and the rest. A group of bald men were a few kilometers behind them, looking exhausted.
Si Kongjian did not make things difficult for them. He maintained the same speed as the first day and ran until nine o'clock the next morning.
