Online Game: You Call Him A Newbie? - Chapter 566
566 The Eye of Discernment (2)
Lin Feng smiled and looked unconcerned. “So what? Can they eat me up?
“This is in front of the Hong family. I’m a genius disciple who has advanced to the third level. Do they dare to mess with me?”
As soon as he said this, the expressions of the people around him became even more unpleasant.
In the center of the square, Xue Ziling, who was behind Hong Sen, grunted coldly. “Hmph, trying to gain popularity!”
Hong Sen chuckled and shook his head at her comment. “The people he’s talking about indeed have these shortcomings. It’s just that he’s not afraid to offend people by saying it in public!”
Xue Ziling coldly retorted, “That’s why I said he’s trying to gain popularity.”
Hong Sen smiled and didn’t say anything more.
However, Xue Ziling asked, “Brother Hong, why did you let that guy directly advance to the third level?
Even if someone from the Diamond Level (lv500) group drops out, shouldn’t there still be opponents available?”
After hesitating for a moment, Hong Sen transmitted his thoughts and said, “I’m not very clear on this. It’s the decision of Father and the others. They said this Nie Zimou might have some issues.”
“Issues?” Xue Ziling was puzzled. “Then why not just deal with him directly? Who would dare to cross the Hong Family?”
Hong Sen smiled and said, “It’s not that simple. What about Chu Sanqiang?”
When Xue Ziling heard this, she could not help but laugh.
Chu Sanqiang had announced that he came from the Chu Family as soon as he arrived.
Although his name was indeed quite ordinary, and he was not well-known in the Chu Family, it was still unusual for a Chu Family member to suddenly come to the Hong Family.
Moreover, while Hong Sen was only in the early stages of the Epic Level, his mastery of formations was very high. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have ranked in the top 100 on the Divine Ranking.
At this moment, runes of formations flowed faintly in Hong Sen’s eyes, and he could see Chu Sanqiang, a peak-level King, clearly in his eyes.
Even if Chu Sanqiang had an artifact that concealed his level, Hong Sen could still see through it!
Chu Sanqiang, who was sweating profusely in his struggle against his opponent, didn’t realize that he had been exposed long ago.
The Hong Family didn’t immediately expose him because they were wary of the Chu Family, but at the same time, they wanted to see why Chu Sanqiang had come to the Hong Family.
Then, Hong Sen turned his gaze to Lin Feng, but he couldn’t discern anything.
Lin Feng didn’t have any artifacts to conceal his level, and there were no other fluctuations. It seemed that his original level was Diamond Level.
When Hong Sen looked at him, Lin Feng immediately sensed it and looked in Hong Sen’s direction.
He noticed the flowing formation runes in Hong Sen’s eyes and was deep in thought.
“Is this the Eye of Discernment Formation? It’s actually placed in the eyes; it’s quite interesting.”
The other party wanted to see through him, but his appearance and aura were both concealed with the peak-level spiritual power of a Divine Level.
Moreover, his mental strength had undergone six qualitative changes. Even a Hong Sen’s Eye of Discernment couldn’t see through it.
Even if another peak-level Divine Level expert came, they might not be able to discover it unless they used a similar Eye of Discernment Formation.
However, the Hong Family has some interesting ways of using formations, Lin Feng thought to himself.
First, there was the formation on the stage that could dispel other formations, and now there was this Eye of Discernment Formation in Hong Sen’s eyes. Both were enlightening to Lin Feng.
Although it seemed like he was watching the people compete, he was actually observing the formation on the stage.
Seeing that Lin Feng had actually discovered him and looked at him, Hong Sen did not feel embarrassed. He just quickly retracted the formation in his eyes and nodded with a smile.
Lin Feng also smiled and nodded, then whispered, “Did you see that? Even Hong Sen nodded, which means he agrees with what I said.”
However, the people around heard his voice, and many of them looked at Hong Sen, realizing that he did indeed look in their direction.
So, many people turned their attention to Lin Feng.
This guy had just said something that seemed to make sense. Shouldn’t they ask him for some advice too?
Hong Sen heard Lin Feng’s words and couldn’t help but chuckle.
Xue Ziling snorted coldly again. “He’s good at taking advantage of the situation!
“Brother Hong, did you see anything?”
Hong Sen shook his head. “No, he’s just an ordinary person.”
Xue Ziling’s expression froze. “Hong Ge’s Eye of Discernment Formation has been cultivated for many years. Even an ordinary Divine Level would find it difficult to hide from Brother Hong. Could it be that he’s just an ordinary genius?”
Hong Sen smiled and said, “As you said, just an ordinary Divine Level. What if he’s not?”
Xue Ziling muttered, “Those late-stage Divine Level experts are all old ghosts. Who would pretend to be a genius disciple? ”
Hong Sen laughed dryly and really could not refute.
However, since his father and the others said that this Nie Zimou might have some issues, they must have made arrangements in advance. So Hong Sen didn’t think about it too much.
The second round of competition lasted for a full three days.
It wasn’t until the afternoon of the third day that half of the participants reached 20 points, while the other half were naturally eliminated.
Among them, Chu Sanqiang naturally reached 20 points, while Fang Lan and Chen Jinyang were eliminated.
Of course, being eliminated didn’t mean they were out of the Hong Family. They were still Hong Family disciples, but their status would definitely be lower than those who advanced.
Hong Sen was announcing the results of the competition when he suddenly received a message. He glanced at Lin Feng in the crowd and slowly said, “Now that the second round is over, the third round will take place tomorrow.”
“The third round will be held in the Luohe Secret Realm, and you will understand the specific rules once you enter the realm tomorrow!”
This announcement caused a commotion among the crowd.
“It’s actually in the Luohe Secret Realm!”
“Oh my god, I should have advanced to the third round no matter what. The Hong Family actually chose the Luohe Secret Realm as the location for the third round. This opportunity is too rare.”
Lin Feng noticed the reactions of the crowd and frowned slightly. The Luohe Secret Realm seemed special.
And given Hong Sen’s reaction earlier, could it be specifically arranged for him?
Lin Feng shook his head. It did not matter if it was or not. In any case, as long as it was a secret realm, he could devour it.
However, it would be best to understand the specific rules of the secret realm in advance.
So he approached Chu Sanqiang and asked, “Do you know anything about the Luohe Secret Realm?”
“Well, I forgot you’re from the countryside.”
An Yu immediately clenched her fists. “What did you say?!”
Chu Sanqiang quickly smiled and said, “Don’t mind it. I misspoke.”
Then he explained, “This Luohe Secret Realm is the place where the Hong family became famous and revived their prestige.
“It can be said that the Hong family’s strength has a lot to do with this secret realm…”
Chu Sanqiang said a lot. It was all bragging about how good this secret realm was and how it helped the Hong family. However, he did not say anything useful.
Lin Feng frowned and said, “Can you get to the point!”
Chu Sanqiang smiled. “Actually, I’m not very sure about the details either. This is because basically everyone who enters the secret realm is from the Hong family. Who would say anything?
“However, there’s one thing I know.”
“It’s said that this Luohe Secret Realm might be related to the spatial law. It might even be related to the Book of Luo of the Earth Emperor, Fuxi!”
Lin Feng was stunned when he heard this. Although he had some guesses, he was still somewhat surprised when he really heard this possibility.
It had to be known that even until now, Lin Feng had never seen a secret realm completely dominated by spatial laws.
“Luohe Secret Realm, the Book of Luo, and the Earth Emperor, Fuxi?” Lin Feng smiled and could not help but look forward to it even more.
Even if the Hong family really discovered him, so what? After all, the bait thrown by the other party was too tempting. Wouldn’t he be letting the Hong family down if he didn’t bite?
Moreover, it was not as if he had not made arrangements for Little Black, Du Jinlong, and the others to disappear these two days.
Therefore, Lin Feng felt that he had to explore this secret realm no matter what.
If he could devour the next secret realm dominated by the spatial law, he could bring forward many of his subsequent plans regarding the Longevity World!
