The sky brightened as the sun rose in the distance, and Shen Xiang couldn't help but reflect on his journey. While he didn't know how others were doing, he knew that reaching this point was no easy feat for him. He had faced many setbacks along the way, and now he was very close to his target.
Although it may have taken him slightly longer than expected, he still believed that his progress was relatively impressive. He estimated that he would be able to secure a top ten position at the very least.
Initially, he was confident that he would win first place. However, seeing the terrifying speed of the young girl Lanlan made him realize his arrogance. There were still numerous strong young figures on the Realm of Royal Emperors.
He was sure that anyone able to score high enough would not be too slow in terms of speed. If they didn't encounter any hindrances, their speeds might even surpass his.
Thinking about this, Shen Xiang felt bitter towards Wangquan for deliberately setting up numerous ambushes to prolong his time.
Of course, he was delighted inwardly that the God Martial Temple sustained significant losses due to his journey. At least, he could witness Wangquan's expression of anger but was hesitant to take action.
The greatest收穫 from this journey was acquiring the memories of four formation experts. Such memories were invaluable, and through the Soul-sucking Spell, Shen Xiang could imprint them onto his mind. After simple digestion, these became his own knowledge and experience. Accumulating extensive formation experience took others a long time, whereas Shen Xiang could obtain them easily.
Being a formation expert wasn't that easy, especially when learning formations required significant resources and was accompanied by risks. Sometimes, mistakes in formulating could result in an explosion or other dangerous behaviors, and Shen Xiang had heard of many people who lost their lives while creating formations.
As long as Shen Xiang skillfully utilized these precious memories, he would soon become a formation expert himself. Moreover, he held the Treasure of Forging Tools, which contained divine patterns highly regarded as a treasure in formations. Through absorbing the memories of those four people, he had laid a foundation for his knowledge. With some time spent on the subject, once proficient in the path of formations, he could begin forging tools.
While soaring high above the clouds, Shen Xiang's giant flaming wings provided him with some concealment, preventing people on the ground from seeing him. However, he could use his powerful consciousness to observe the situation below. Along the way, he discovered over twenty people frantically flying at incredible speeds. He guessed they had been continuously running without stopping.
However, based on their speed alone, it was impossible for them to reach this point in just over a dozen days. He speculated that there might be foul play, likely orchestrated by Wangquan and others to cheat these disciples. Given the significant distance between the checkpoints, Dongchen Gu and Kai Ming Wu were unlikely to be aware of what would happen.
The God Martial Temple had many people, making it relatively easy to help disciples cheat. Nevertheless, Shen Xiang was still leading these twenty people and discovered additional competitors as he accelerated his flight.
"This competition will eliminate thirty people, and currently, there are already thirty individuals trailing behind me. Assuming nothing goes wrong, I should pass this checkpoint," Shen Xiang sighed slightly relieved. If it was due to foul play by the God Martial Temple, he would remain resentful for a long time. The thought was unbearable to him.
Three days passed, and Shen Xiang caught up with several more people. The end was near; it was a high mountain's peak, adorned with a large copper bell on the platform. As long as he could ring that bell, reaching the endpoint was confirmed.
Although Shen Xiang could see it from up high, there was still a considerable distance between him and the mountain peak. The top of the mountain was extremely high, piercing through the clouds. If running down from below, one would need to climb for a long time.
"All-out acceleration!" Concerned about potential mishaps, Shen Xiang used his true qi to fly. Instantly, his Vermillion Phoenix wings expanded significantly, and a burst of azure qi surged from beneath his feet. This was the Wind Energy inside Dragon's True Qi, accompanied by violent thunder enhancing burst strength and increasing his speed.
There were numerous people standing on the peak from a distance. They saw Shen Xiang flapping his massive wings, a large azure qi團 flying towards them together with the impact of their feet. Each person was deeply moved by his incredible speed and momentum.
Shen Xiang rushed across the sky, colliding with the air and emitting loud explosions. Initially distant from the mountain peak, his speed increased significantly during full-throttle sprinting, resembling a beam of light with crimson and green shadows trailing behind it as he shot directly towards the peak.
Shen Xiang flipped mid-air, elegantly landing on the platform on top of the mountain. He hurriedly approached the large copper bell, ringing it...
Listening to the echoing bell sound across the sky, Shen Xiang exhaled deeply. After the echoes dissipated, an old man shouted, "Shen Xiang, fifteenth place!"
Lanlan came to his side, pursing her lips and said, "Fifteenth place You're so slow."
Shen Xiang chuckled, "Little girl, if you were blocked by a few Peak Realms at the beginning and then swarmed by tens of thousands of Golden Lion Eagles, suppressed by formations, and immobilized by four Formation Experts working together, with a bloodline warrior wielding a powerful weapon attacking you, could you have gotten here so quickly"
"Good thing these guys are trash, those few Peak Realms at the start might have been crippled by now. The tens of thousands of Golden Lion Eagles should be dead everywhere. As for the four Formation Experts... ha-ha, they were also through me like a knife cutting through butter. My body's meridian channels were shattered, that bloodline warrior wielding powerful treasures was also destroyed by me, leaving him severely injured! Although there were many obstacles, they were all useless."
Shen Xiang looked at Wangquan as he spoke, noticing the unpleasant expression on his face. Similar expressions could also be seen on Dongchen Gu and Kai Ming Wu's faces, as they waited here only to overhear that the early competitors didn't encounter any hindrances and breezed through effortlessly.
But Shen Xiang faced constant obstacles, targeted ones at that, including bloodline warriors wielding powerful blades attacking him!
"Shen Xiang, there's no way! You're a guest from the Realm of Royal Emperors, so they had to pay more attention to you. However, your performance is impressive. Returning kindness with kindred spirit, and it's a significant one indeed."
Lin Yingxiao smiled, the God Martial Temple might have lost heavily by trying to cheat and ended up losing even more. Shen Xiang was from the Realm of Heavenly Martial, where several major powers were awaiting him there.
Hua Xiangyue laughed seductively, "The Realm of Royal Emperors is hospitable indeed. However, you're all too shameless! These fellows couldn't even keep this kid here and only succeeded in letting him finish with the fifteenth place, successfully completing his passage!"
"Wangquan, don't you find your methods disgusting If you didn't want Shen Xiang to participate in the Royal Martial Tournament, just say it. I guarantee he'll withdraw. Is this the kind of dirty trick you're playing Let me tell you, don't think I'm afraid just because you're the highest authority in the Realm of Royal Emperors! If there's a next time, I'll make sure that I defeat you, Liu Meng'er!"
Liu Meng'er's emotions filled with rage accompanied an icy wind spreading across the entire mountain peak. The straight mountain was instantly covered in thick frost, and that peculiarly cold force filled with a kind of awe-inspiring dignity permeated the area.
The entire platform was silent, Wangquan frowned and expelled the strange coldness entering his body. Many people couldn't figure out why Liu Meng'er had erupted in such anger!rrifying!&"Maybe the batch of demon beasts that attacked the city earlier are here too. Without Heavenly God strength, they're very dangerous now. We can only hope that the main hall's Heavenly Gods a...
