Chapter 1101: Miscalculation, coercion

~7 min read 1,365 words

Soon, ten breaths of time were up.

"Go..."

Wu Zhanyun waved his hand, and the white light spot whooshed out, flying towards the mountain peak opposite.

It was also at the moment Wu Zhanyun shouted, a beam of light exploded under He Pingsheng's feet.

Chirp...

A sound!

That was the sound of the shoes being torn due to the excessive impact force when starting too fast.

Not just the shoes!

He Pingsheng's Daoist robe was also torn into pieces!

Fortunately, he was wearing a first-tier immortal treasure level garment inside, otherwise he would really be flying naked.

Whoosh...

Under the blessing of the Absolute Shadow Immortal Art, He Pingsheng gained five times the speed in an instant.

Superimposed on his own speed, it was unimaginably fast.

At the first breath, he lagged behind the light spot, at the second breath, he gradually caught up.

By the third breath, He Pingsheng had completely overtaken this light spot, and the speed was getting faster and faster, and the distance overtaken was getting larger and larger.

He Pingsheng exhaled.

He could guarantee that this light spot had been tampered with.

This speed was not the normal speed for testing.

Because ninety-nine percent of people's speed could not be faster than this light spot.

Even some demon clans good at flying!

And the passing rate requirement for this last pass is thirty percent!

Eliminate seventy percent of people!

But now, where is this eliminating seventy percent of people? It's simply eliminating all the immortals participating in the competition.

After overtaking the light spot, He Pingsheng specifically looked back, the vast army behind him, the other ninety-nine people, were all left far behind by this light spot.

Including the little senior aunt of Hong Lian Immortal Valley, Xi Qingsheng.

At this time, He Pingsheng appropriately reduced some speed, maintained an appropriate distance from the light spot, and after another three to five breaths, he landed on the opposite mountain top.

"Passed!"

The Earth Immortal on the opposite mountain top didn't know He Pingsheng, he just truthfully recorded everyone's results.

Of course, he also shocked and asked a soul-searching question: "This... why is the light spot so fast?"

Then, whoosh, the light spot also rushed across the finish line and landed in the void on the second peak. 【1101

After the light spots, the remaining ninety-nine people were all eliminated.

Suddenly, countless people on both sides of the Great River shouted and yelled.

"Damn, how is it so fast?"

"This isn't reasonable!"

"Even if I put in all my strength, I might not be able to pass!"

"Is this a test, or is it trying to kill us?"

Even a certain Earth Immortal participating in the test personally shouted to the opposite side: "City Lord, please confirm if the speed of the test light spots is reasonable?"

That Wu Zhanyun's face turned black to the extreme. He gritted his teeth and said: "The speed of these test light spots is indeed not reasonable. It is my fault. Everyone, re-test!"

Wu Zhanyun vomited.

Who could have imagined that even though he had increased the speed by more than five times, this fellow He Pingsheng had still passed?

Vomit!

There was no other way!

"Alright!" The Earth Immortal tester beside He Pingsheng looked at the crowd and said: "You ninety-nine, re-test. You don't need to..."

"What is your name?"

He Pingsheng smiled and said: "This junior is He Pingsheng!"

"Awesome, He Pingsheng!" The Earth Immortal tester gave a thumbs up: "With this speed, you can rank first this time. It's almost impossible for anyone to be faster than you!"

"Please go to the side and wait a moment!"

"Yes!" He Pingsheng sat to the side, watching coldly!

Anyway, he had already passed the four stages.

The Vice City Lord was, after all, only a Vice City Lord; he couldn't cover the sky with one hand.

The second re-test began, and the flight speed of the light spots was indeed much slower.

About seventy to eighty percent of the people were eliminated, and twenty to thirty percent passed.

"Congratulations, Junior Feng Shishu Xi!" He Pingsheng didn't expect that this woman, Xi Qingsheng, had passed again.

Xi Qingsheng looked at He Pingsheng, her beautiful eyes shimmering with an unusual luster: "Don't congratulate me. You are even more impressive. That speed just now really made me despair, yet you actually passed even at that speed!"

He Pingsheng chuckled and said: "Didn't I tell you before, Junior Feng Shishu? I have an immortal technique here that can increase speed several times over!"

"Here!" He Pingsheng even took out the jade slip containing the 【Absolute Shadow Immortal Art】 and handed it to Xi Qingsheng, saying: "I'll give you half an incense stick of time; how much you can learn depends on your ability!"

"Ah?" Xi Qingsheng was overjoyed and said: "This... Little Junior Nephew, aren't you too kind?"

He Pingsheng smiled without a word.

A genius like Xi Qingsheng would surely hold a high and powerful position after returning to the Red Lotus Immortal Valley.

Now that He Pingsheng had basically decided on the plan to slip away immediately after participating in the Star Emperor City Sword Trial, he likely would never return to the Red Lotus Immortal Valley again.

Since that was the case, passing this immortal art to Xi Qingsheng was equivalent to repaying some of the karma for the protection of the Red Lotus Immortal Valley.

As for whether she could learn it in half an incense stick of time?

It was impossible to learn.

But rote memorization was absolutely no problem at all.

Before even half an incense stick of time had passed, Xi Qingsheng returned the jade slip to He Pingsheng: "Little Junior Nephew, thank you very much!"

He Pingsheng shook his head.

Soon, the first wave of a thousand people finished testing!

The result was that only about three hundred people passed the assessment.

"This is the token for passing the assessment!" The Earth Immortal tester issued a gold medal to each person and said: "Ten days from now, the competition begins. During these ten days, you need to go to the City Lord's Mansion to draw lots!"

"Draw lots to determine your competition opponent!"

"Go, you may leave!"

He Pingsheng let Xi Qingsheng go first.

After Xi Qingsheng left, he transformed into a stream of light and streaked into the sky, flying toward the Qiankun Immortal City.

Along the way, there was no need to worry about being killed by Wu Zhanyun.

Because this place was very close to the Qiankun Immortal City, and people were constantly flying from here to the Immortal City.

Unless Wu Zhanyun's brain was broken, he wouldn't intercept He Pingsheng here.

But although Wu Zhanyun didn't make a move on He Pingsheng, he still intercepted He Pingsheng while he was in flight.

"Senior!" He Pingsheng looked sincere and respectfully bowed to Wu Zhanyun.

Wu Zhanyun said: "Congratulations... you passed all four basic stages!"

"Of course, my grandson Wu Xiu also passed easily!"

He Pingsheng didn't speak.

Wu Zhanyun continued: "Although Wu Xiu passed, with his ability, he can at most stop outside the top one hundred; he cannot enter the top ten!"

"He needs the direct-entry spot you have on you!"

"Speak, what do you want?"

"I can satisfy you with anything!"

"Do not refuse me!"

"If you refuse me, what you lose will not just be the direct-entry token, but your life!"

"You must know, as an ant at the Human Immortal stage, no matter how gifted you are? No matter how heaven-defying you are? In the eyes of us Profound Immortals, you, He Pingsheng, are still just an ant!"

"To wipe out such an ant, I only need a single thought!"

"Finally, I believe you are a sensible person!" Wu Zhanyun put his hands behind his back: "Speak, what do you want?"

"Don't talk about any God-Refining Immortal Art; I don't have that!"

"Change to something else. As long as I have it, I can trade with you!"

These past few days have been truly exhausting to the point of vomiting, but it is finally over. Thank you all for your understanding and comfort.
