"Ah!!!" Cai Yongfeng let out a bitter howl. Thinking that even at the end, he didn’t even know how he lost, anger rushed into his head. Everything turned dark, and he fainted.
"Sigh… his inner qualities are really too inferior!" Fang Zhengzhi lightly shook his head.
At this moment, a few voices also rang out in the sky.
"Fang Zhengzhi, advance!"
"Cai Yongfeng, eliminated!"
"Li... , eliminated!"
"..."
When the examinees heard these voices, they finally confirmed that Cai Yongfeng had really lost, and due to this battle, Fang Zhengzhi would enter the Hidden Dragon Roll, and assume the position of number fifty-six.
A youth from the village reaching the high level of number fifty-six the instant he entered the Hidden Dragon Roll.
It was an absolutely shocking news.
Very quickly, a stone door appeared in front of Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at the stone door, smiled, and finally decided to stroll in. He indeed had thought of using this rockfall matrix to earn some money, or so on.
For example: Claiming a few hundred silver pieces from each examinee, then, bringing them to great heights and so on.
Unfortunately…
This was the Law of Dao examination. If he really did that, he might be accused of helping others to cheat, and when that time comes, it would backfire on him.
The stone door closed, and vanished.
"Brother Hua, what should we do… in the second round?" Within the examinees, a youth wearing a black armour with thick eyebrows looked at the disappearing stone, and an icy glint flashed in his eyes.
"I indeed never expected Fang Zhengzhi to have such abilities. He should at least have reached the Divine Seal Peak Stage?" Another youth wearing a white armour, with a book on his hands looked amazed.
When they finished their sentence, they both looked at a youth by the side.
That was a youth around the age of eighteen. His face was white and clean, and his features were clear. What was most unique was the armour on his body. It was a blue, soft metal armour, and on it, there were various carved lines. It looked extremely exquisite.
And on the breastplate of the armour, a translucent sapphire was etched into it. Just one look told people that this armour wasn’t just an average one.
Beside the youth, other than the two youths wearing black armour and white armour, the other examinees instinctively withdrew three meters.
Because, that youth’s name was Hua Kangan.
As a genius who had reached the Star Conglomerate State at the age of eighteen, his arrogance could be inferred. Only people like Tang Yulong and Zhang Hetong could speak to Hua Kangan at all.
"It is indeed somewhat unexpected. Looks like things need to change a little…" Hua Kangan looked at the black armoured youth Tang Yulong, and the white armoured youth Zhang Hetong, his expression remaining calm as always.
"How about, in the second round, I will challenge him!" Tang Yulong spoke coldly.
Within the three people, even though Tang Yulong was number thirty-five in the Hidden Dragon Roll, but, in comparison, he was the weakest there. However, Tang Yulong was the most vicious of the three.
"Brother Tang you need not rush, now that we know Fang Zhengzhi’s true powers, we don’t have to rush our actions!" Zhang Hetong shook as head. Born in a scholarly family, he preferred to fight with strategy.
"Yes, Brother Zhang is right. Fang Zhengzhi’s abilities have already been confirmed, it is at least Divine Seal Peak State. Furthermore, it might even be stronger! Continuing to test in the second round would already be futile!" Hua Kangan nodded.
"What is Brother Hua’s intention?" Tang Yulong asked, confused.
"Actually, Fang Zhengzhi had given me an idea!" Hua Kangan looked at the rockfall matrix, and seemed deep in thought.
"Brother Hua is referring to..." Zhang Hetong’s eyes lit up, as if having guessed Hua Kangan’s intention.
"He treated Cai Yongfeng like that, why can’t we use the same method against him? Giving him a taste of his own medicine, isn’t that great?" The edges of Hua Kangan’s mouth curved into a cold smile.
"Yes, as long as we conserve our energy, at the third round, one of us will occupy Yan Xiu, while the other two will attack together. At that stage, he will become a disabled man, so what if he passed the capital examination?" Hua Kangan looked, somewhat impatiently, at Tang Yulong, who was standing beside him and looking confused as ever, and explained.
"Brother Hua, wise words!" When Tang Yulong heard this, he instantly nodded in deep admiration.
"Let’s go!" Hua Kangan didn’t speak further. Looking at the crowd of examinees at the side, a trace of despise appeared, then, he walked in the lead towards the rockfall matrix.
Zhang Hetong and Tang Yulong exchanged a glance, and instantly followed.
Looking at Hua Kangan and the rest walk into the rockfall matrix, youths who were similarly confident also followed behind, and carefully entered the rockfall matrix.
Of course, not everybody who received the hint had the confidence of passing the rockfall matrix. After all, most people had limited knowledge about formations and matrixes.
Hence, after more than ten youths entered rockfall matrix, the scene gradually turned chaotic again.
"Brother Zhang, I’m sorry!"
"Brother Li, you don’t have to be. The winner and loser are still undetermined!"
"Ah… you… you actually sneaked a surprise attack?!"
The examinees cried out as they fought among themselves. Then, one by one, stone doors began to appear quickly, vanish, appear again, then vanish again...
Not too long later, almost half the examinees disappeared within the pocket dimension.
…
When Fang Zhengzhi walked out from the stone door, he just happened to notice Yan Xiu, in his armour, standing not too far away in front of him. His hands were placed behind his back, and the expression on his face couldn’t be seen.
And in front of Yan Xiu, there was a huge mountain cliff. The sound of water couldn’t be heard below the cliff. Evidently, there wasn’t any river flower, only a black mist swirled around beneath the cliff.
The gentle wind blew, and Yan Xiu lightly fanned his Golden Bone Silver Thread Fan.
"You are here?" Yan Xiu spoke without even turning back his head.
"A little slow." Yan Xiu seemed to be speaking to himself, and at the same time, seemed to be blaming.
"I was conveniently settling some private matters, hence I had to delay a little." As Fang Zhengzhi spoke, he walked to Yan Xiu’s side and looked at the cliff in front without a much change in his expression.
"Jump now?" Yan Xiu pointed at the cliff in front.
Fang Zhengzhi stuck out his head and took a look.
And realised…
It really was quite high!
"Wait a while!" Fang Zhengzhi thought for a while, and shook his head.
"Alright!" Yan Xiu seemed to not have noticed the change in Fang Zhengzhi’s expression.
As the two spoke, the sound of a wave of soft footsteps came from not too far away, accompanied by the deafening sound of stone slamming onto the ground. Not too long later, three people appeared behind them.
The person at the front had a white, clean face, and wore an exquisite blue armour, wearing a rather arrogant expression on his face. And behind him, there were two youths wearing a black and white armour respectively.
The youth wearing the black armour had a cold and cool expression, while the youth wearing the white armour looked somewhat dignified and cultured.
When the three people appeared, their gaze instantly fell on Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi’s gaze also fell on the three youths. However, it finally landed on the leading youth’s blue armour. When he saw that exquisite armour, the edges of his mouth quickly revealed a bright smile.
"I like this beautiful armour! Upright, grand, upper grade!"
