Chapter 326: Drifting through the bend via the drainage ditch!
"Drift, drift, drift...
Drift, drift, drift..."
The music sounded from the car speakers, echoing in the mountains.
Everyone in the arena widened their eyes, their faces dull...
He's still in the mood to play music at a time like this?
"This Divine Steed... really has many functions!" Someone gave a dry laugh.
"To think it can even play music, it's truly hard to believe!"
"But this music sounds so strange. Although I can't hear clearly what it's singing, it's quite catchy!"
Many people wiped the sweat from their foreheads and gave a bitter laugh.
This was the first time they had seen such a thing, especially since they were still in the middle of a trial competition, and everyone was concentrating their divine soul power on driving their Divine Steeds.
As a result, this guy Xu Que actually still had the energy to play music and enjoy himself, which was truly laughable and made people feel jealous, envious, and hateful all at once!
Whoosh!
At this moment, a Divine Steed suddenly lost control, flew up from a bend ahead, and slid off the mountain road, falling down the mountain!
The attention of everyone in the arena was instantly shifted, and they all looked at that Divine Steed!
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the Divine Steed that flew out crashed at the foot of the mountain, completely deformed.
Fortunately, the cultivator inside was well-prepared and used a technique to protect his body, so he didn't suffer any serious injuries, but this also meant that he had failed this round of the trial!
"This person was too careless!"
"That's right. Approaching the bend, he didn't slow down to a speed he could control; he overestimated himself too much!"
"This kind of bend is much harder than the first one. At this speed, it's impossible to pass, and it's very easy for something to happen!"
"Look at Qi Yunfei and Gao Qiaojie; they didn't dare to be careless and slowed down so much before barely passing the third bend!"
"Damn, Xu Que is still accelerating!"
"My God, could it be that he wants to continue using that method to pass these five bends?"
"That's absolutely impossible to do. At this speed, even if he uses that method just now, he'll definitely lose control and fly off the mountain road."
"This guy is going to have an accident!"
Everyone focused their gaze on Xu Que's AE86 again and exclaimed repeatedly.
Having had the previous example of that cultivator's Divine Steed flying off the mountain road, many people became more vigilant and began to control the speed of their Divine Steeds.
But in the entire arena, only Xu Que was still revving the accelerator to speed up, playing music while reaching his hand out of the car window, directly enjoying himself.
Everyone looked at him like he was a lunatic and shook their heads repeatedly in their hearts.
If he continues forward at this speed, something will happen soon!
The Second Prince and Zhang Lin once again showed expectant expressions, staring fixedly at Xu Que, as if they were very much looking forward to him flying off the mountain road soon and crashing head-first!
The Third Prince, the Seventh Princess, and the others couldn't help but become nervous again.
Soon, Xu Que's car approached the entrance of the bend.
He had overtaken countless Divine Steeds and was now in sixth place, catching up very quickly!
And in front of him, there were still five Divine Steeds, all still in the area of the five consecutive hairpin turns, driving slowly and carefully.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Xu Que turned the steering wheel sharply, made a quick flash, and instantly darted toward the inner bend, close to the mountain side!
Everyone in the arena was stunned.
This position... although it's a bit closer to the inside, it doesn't seem to have much effect. At this speed, he'll still be thrown off the mountain road by the force!
"Bang!"
Just at this moment, a muffled sound came from Xu Que's car tires.
It wasn't a flat tire, but one side of the car tires had sunk into the grass on the mountain road!
The grass was a few centimeters lower than the mountain road, forming a natural drainage ditch.
Xu Que's row of tires sinking in instantly made everyone widen their eyes.
"Something's wrong, something's wrong!"
"He must be trying to get close to the inside of the mountain road and continue to pass the bend in the same way as before, avoiding being thrown out, but he's too close!"
"Now his Divine Steed has half of it off the mountain road, stuck in the grass; there's no way he can pass the bend in that way anymore!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Even Zhang Lin laughed out loud very hatefully: "Haha, this method is too stupid..."
But the next moment, all the voices in the arena came to a sudden stop!
"Screech!"
A sharp screech of brakes pierced the silence, resounding in all directions, very ear-piercing!
Xu Que's car drifted steadily through the inner curve, the rear tires sliding across the ground in a perfect arc. The front of the car followed the inner curve, steady and fast, like a bolt of lightning, instantly sweeping past the bend!
"Hiss!"
The arena fell into silence, with only a uniform gasp remaining!
Everyone was dumbfounded, finding it hard to believe!
"This... how is this possible?"
"At this speed, how could it be so steady passing the bend?"
"And it's even steadier than the first bend just now, why?"
"That's right, his Divine Steed clearly had one side off the mountain road, stuck in the grass, how could it still be so steady drifting past?"
"And look at the water cup in his Divine Steed, not a single drop of water splashed out!"
"Damn, this is going to defy the heavens!"
Many people were shocked, finding it hard to believe the scene they were seeing.
And Xu Que's car continued forward, a faint smile hanging on the corners of his mouth, and the system's acting cool reward prompt echoed in his mind!
"Hehe, the legendary drainage ditch drift, is it something you bunch of trash can understand? This King of Acting Cool grew up watching Initial D, otherwise why would I be called the Akina Mountain Car God?"
Xu Que smiled proudly, continued to rev the accelerator, and sped toward the second bend of the five consecutive hairpin turns!
"Bang!"
Approaching the bend, he again slid a row of car tires off the mountain road, followed by turning the steering wheel, his right foot stepping back and forth on the brake and accelerator!
Screech!
With a sharp, ear-piercing sound, the car drifted past the bend steadily again, and at the same time, overtook two Divine Steeds, instantly entering third place!
And by this time, everyone, besides being shocked, had already begun to react!
"No, he did it on purpose!" Someone suddenly exclaimed!
"This guy deliberately let one side of the Divine Steed slide off the mountain road, actually to use that small ditch outside the mountain road to pull the Divine Steed!"
"Too powerful, I didn't expect such a method could be used to pass a bend. How did he do it?"
"At this speed, he'll soon be able to overtake first place!"
……
Everyone discussed it.
And the three people in front were also a bit anxious at this moment.
They had just passed the fourth bend, and their speed was very slow!
But Xu Que passed two bends with ease in the blink of an eye, and now he was already drifting and gliding in the third bend, and in a little while, he would definitely catch up!
"Accelerate quickly, learn his method of passing the bend just now!" At this moment, the Eighth Prince on the mountaintop immediately sent a voice transmission to Qi Yunfei, the Ghost of Divine Steeds.
The First Prince's expression also froze, his lips moved, and he also sent a voice transmission to Gao Qiaojie, the number one genius of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion!
And the one blocking Xu Que's way at this moment happened to be another prodigy invited by the Second Prince. He had performed exceptionally well today, and with Zhang Lin being eliminated by Xu Que, he had luckily sprinted to third place!
"You should have seen how he passed the bend just now. Accelerate quickly, learn to pass the bend like him, and absolutely don't let him catch up!" The Second Prince also sent a voice transmission to this prodigy at this moment, telling him to learn Xu Que's method to keep third place!
But they all forgot that the reason Xu Que could drift was because of the coordination of the steering wheel and the accelerator/brake mechanism, and most importantly, his tires were rubber and elastic!
But the Divine Steeds of this group of prodigies all had iron tires. Trying to drift was no different from looking for death!
It just so happened that the prodigy in third place was already anxious, fearing being caught up by Xu Que, and coupled with the Second Prince's voice transmission, he immediately braced himself and forced it!
Boom!
With a muffled sound, the third-place prodigy instantly exploded with divine soul power and suddenly accelerated!
Afterward, he controlled the Divine Steed and let one side slide off the mountain road, sinking into the grass!
But the next moment, the metal-made tires instantly shredded the grass, and even the mountain road was shattered by the metal tires.
Bang!
Accompanied by a burst of flying gravel, the prodigy's Divine Steed instantly lost control, suddenly flew up, and was thrown out of the mountain!
Everyone in the arena was instantly shocked and lost their color.
The Second Prince even stood up abruptly, his expression changing drastically, looking at this scene with wide eyes!
How could this be?
How could this happen?
Why could that kid do it?
But the people on his side would be thrown out?
Why?
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, Xu Que's car arrived just in time. Although the mountain road had been shredded, this couldn't stop the old driver's pace!
Xu Que utilized the advantage of his divine soul power to compensate for the shredded mountain road, used his divine soul power to lift the car, and successfully drifted past that bend!
At the same time, he didn't forget to stick his head out of the car window, letting the car drift, looked at the Divine Steed "flying" in the air, and shouted to that cultivator: "Brother, are you going to the sky? Say hello to the sun for me!" ===== CHAPTER 327 =====
