Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 38
Chapter 38 Compete With One’s Feet
After everything was prepared, Ye Feng left the courtyard and walked towards the designated square. This time, the four families would enter the Valley of Heavenly Phenomenon together. It should be very spectacular.
A mountain peak of the Heavenly Spiritual Academy was cut off. The plaza was built here. It was ten thousand square meters in size and could accommodate thousands of people.
Every time Ye Feng came here, his heart would surge. What kind of ability was it that could cut the mountain? Could this be the legendary mountain reclamation?
The plaza was divided into four areas, each corresponding to four forces. When Ye Feng walked to the Heavenly Spiritual Academy, there were about 70 to 80 disciples, and even the shadows of inner sect disciples. Every time, inner sect disciples could apply to enter for the purpose of training.
The other regions were about the same. Walking within a hundred people, they rubbed their fists one by one. There were quite a few treasures in the Valley of Heavenly Phenomenon. If they obtained some thousand-year-old spirit fruit, their cultivation realms would probably rise with a whoosh.
More than a dozen powerful auras suddenly landed on the plaza. They were all high-ranking figures from Heavenly Spiritual Academy, Daluo Academy, Veluriyam Valley, and Guiyun Fort. As they descended, waves of Xiantian auras intertwined with each other.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to Heavenly Spirit Academy. As the host, I welcome everyone on behalf of the academy.”
An instructor from the Heavenly Spiritual Academy announced the opening remarks. He was very polite.
The mentor then announced the rules, hoping that everyone would compete fairly and not fight each other, so as not to hurt the peace. Perhaps some people believed these words, but Ye Feng definitely did not believe them, because there were already several unkind eyes sweeping towards him.
Every time he entered the Valley of Heavenly Phenomena, it would take him ten days. After ten days, he had to come out. Otherwise, he would have to stay inside for a year. The Valley of Heavenly Phenomena was always accompanied by danger. Even ten days would require caution.
After speaking for an incense stick of time, we can finally set off. The Heavenly Phenomenon Valley is not at the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. The entrance is at the Setting Sun Valley. It will take about two hours to set off from the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. There are already people waiting for these people in the Setting Sun Valley.
“You can start now. In an hour’s time, why don’t you compete with each other and see who will be the first to arrive?”
This was an important show every year. Before entering the Valley of Heavenly Phenomena, they had to compete first. Let’s see who was the first disciple to arrive at the Valley of Heavenly Phenomenon. The battle was fierce, and no one wanted to fall to the bottom.
With this order, someone had already executed a superior movement technique, and their figures moved quickly. In the blink of an eye, they flew towards Sunset Valley.
Ye Feng wasn’t in a hurry either. He watched as the figures disappeared one by one, still dawdling. Only when everyone was about to leave did Ye Feng use the Shadow Steps and chase after the people behind him.
After a cup of tea, they began to split into three groups. The first wave of people walked at the front, the middle group had the most people, and the inner sect disciples hung behind them.
Hundreds of people were sparsely traveling along the mountain path. Ye Feng’s body was like a butterfly, neither hurried nor slow. He hung tightly behind, slowly beginning to get closer to the group of people at the back.
These people were all elite disciples of various clans. Their strength was absolutely formidable. Along the way, only a shadow could be seen. Ye Feng used a cup of tea time to finally walk side by side with the last group of people.
Ye Feng waited until everyone had disappeared before he left. It was a cup of tea time slower than everyone else, but he saw his shadow constantly flash past. Soon, he stepped over the group of people behind him and began to draw closer to the group of people in the middle.
The Misty Shadow Steps were used at full strength. It took almost two to three breaths of time to pull away from the group of people behind him. Their speed was extremely fast. Seeing that his body was like a casual stroll, he unknowingly caught up to the last disciple of the group of people in the middle.
This wasn’t just a battle of movement techniques, it was also a battle of true qi. There were already people who lacked true qi and their speed began to slow down.
This was a test of willpower. There were many movement techniques that didn’t differentiate between high and low. They relied on comprehension and profound strength. The higher the movement technique, the faster one would naturally run. Those with rich true energy would be able to make up for this deficiency.
If one’s movement skill wasn’t low in grade and had a deep cultivation base, one would naturally be able to run at the forefront. This time, it was the elite that was at the forefront.
“Holy shit, who is this person? Why is he so fast!”
Running in the middle, a man saw a shadow swiftly flash by his side. He let out a cry of alarm. He could not even see the shadow clearly, and the shadow had already disappeared.
After a few jumps, Ye Feng appeared in the middle of the group of people. At this time, everyone could clearly see Ye Feng. They saw his figure was ethereal, and his feet could barely touch the ground. In a few breaths of time, he began to move forward. Soon, he was about to leave the group of people in the middle.
“Hurry up and stop him, don’t let him rush to the front!”
Someone recognized Ye Feng and actually stopped him. Three men appeared in front of him, dressed in the clothes of Da Luo Academy, wanting to stop Ye Feng’s footsteps.
The three of them were all at the peak of the Houtian 8th layer. They should think that they could stop Ye Feng when facing one person.
“You’re courting death!”
Seeing that the path was blocked by someone, Ye Feng shouted angrily. His body did not stop, he continued to swiftly rush forward and punched towards the three of them.
“Boom!”
Just as the three of them were about to react, they discovered that their bodies did not listen to their orders and flew backwards. They were thrown outside the mountain path and fell into the bushes.
Ye Feng acted as if nothing had happened. He continued to move forward, leaving behind a bunch of people who were dumbfounded. They watched Ye Feng ride away. Not long after, Ye Feng’s figure completely disappeared from the group of people in the middle and began to chase after the first group of people.
After being shocked, apart from staring blankly, these people could only bury their heads and run wildly again.
Ye Feng’s body was extremely unrestrained. He was really like an immortal. A few crossing paths, he began to appear behind the first group of people, lagging behind by one cup of tea. Ye Feng caught up after half an hour.
The speed became faster and faster, only a white line could be seen. The leaves behind him flew up with a whoosh, and Ye Feng had already disappeared.
There weren’t many people in the first wave, only about twenty people. From afar, these people were all competing with each other. None of them wanted to leave. They were only a few positions away from each other and staggered with each other.
Someone had already sensed that someone was chasing after them. They unconsciously turned around and saw a shadow behind them. They couldn’t see clearly, and it was a bit faster than each of them. The distance between them was getting closer and closer.
“It’s actually him!” Someone saw Ye Feng’s appearance clearly and seemed to not believe it.
In a trance, Ye Feng appeared behind the first wave of people, catching up to the last person. In a flash of lightning, Ye Feng crossed over, catching up to one person, and then rushed forward.
These people were undoubtedly the elites of the elites. Being surpassed by others was a very uncomfortable feeling. Everyone’s movement skills were not bad, let alone their true qi. Most of them were at the half-step Xiantian realm, and there were even more who had cultivated their movement skills to the Perfection realm. However, compared to Ye Feng, he was still slightly lacking.
There was still a third of the way to Sunset Valley. The first group of people had fallen into a stalemate. Especially after Ye Feng caught up with them, all of them exerted their strength at the same time. Just now, they still had some strength left. They intended to speed up in the final journey.
After a few leaps, Ye Feng caught up with another person and left him behind. A mountain-like body appeared in front of Ye Feng. Every step he took, the entire mountain path shook. From the information Ye Feng obtained, this man should be the Heavenly Energy of Da Luo Academy.
Speed was not an advantage of Heavenly Energy. To be able to maintain his position in the 1st legion, he relied on his dense True Qi and terrifying strength. Seeing that Ye Feng was about to catch up, Heavenly Energy’s footsteps suddenly accelerated. It was much faster, and the ground shook even more seriously. It was as if a huge truck was traveling.
The others ran ahead. They could still accept it. However, there was no record of Ye Feng in the news. Furthermore, Ye Feng was only at the eighth level of the Houtian realm. All of the people in front of them felt that they could not afford to lose face if they were not at the ninth level of the Houtian realm.
After discerning who was in front of him, Ye Feng felt a breeze coming from the bottom of his feet. His body moved horizontally, leaving Heavenly Energy behind him. More than one person continued to move closer to the person in front of him.
Ye Feng knew the person in front of him. It was actually Chen Yiming from Veluriyam Valley. After seeing Ye Feng, Ye Feng could clearly see the surprise in his eyes. A month ago, Ye Feng’s strength had not been so terrifying. It had only been a long time since Ye Feng had grown to this level.
Although Chen Yiming’s strength was not bad, there was no red mark on the beast scroll. It seemed that Teacher Li believed that Chen Yiming could not threaten Ye Feng, and the truth was the same.
Ye Feng suddenly accelerated and staggered Chen Yiming away from him. His speed was getting faster and faster, because there was still an incense stick of time before the finish line. It was only ten minutes. Everyone was fighting for their last breath and wanted to be the first to reach the finish line.
The four elders and their mentors had been waiting in Sunset Valley for a long time. Time passed by one minute by one second. Ye Feng’s body turned into a streak of light, continuously surpassing five or six people. There were only six or seven people left in front of him.
“Little Junior Brother, it seems that Senior Sister has underestimated you.”
A charming voice came from the side. In front of Ye Feng was actually Mei Xiaoyao. The two of them began to walk side by side.
“Senior Sister, you’re flattering me!”
Ye Feng’s face was not red and he was not panting. When Mei Xiaoyao spoke just now, she clearly felt that she was panting intensely, but Ye Feng did not feel anything.
“Junior apprentice-brother, you must cheer for the academy. Hurry up and fight for the first place so that others won’t snatch it away. Senior apprentice-sister won’t be able to run anymore!”
Mei Xiaoyao opened the passageway and relaxed the distance, allowing Ye Feng to quickly pass through.
“Thank you, Senior Sister!”
Ye Feng’s voice disappeared along with his body. With a whoosh, his figure continuously exceeded a few people. There were only four people in front of him. From the back view, Ye Feng should be able to distinguish clearly.
The blood robe at the front was probably Gui Wuxue from Gui Yun Castle.
Behind Gui Wuxue was a young man dressed in white. He should be Xie Wenhao from Veluriyam Valley. The two behind him were on par. One of them, Ye Feng, was Kou Chenlong from Heavenly Spiritual Academy. The other person should be Ma Wenqiang from Daluo Academy.
The four of them were similar in strength and dislocated from each other. It was Kou Chenlong’s turn to take the first place, and he was quickly pushed to the front by Ma Wen. The four of them were about the same in strength and speed.
The finish line appeared in everyone’s line of sight. Ye Feng even saw the figure of the finish line. The corner of his mouth drew an arc, and his body actually glided in the air. His speed more than doubled. With a whoosh, he disappeared from his original spot, and he didn’t even know where he appeared.
