36 Beginning of the Main Tournament, Part Two (1/2)

“Where are those people from?” Zhao Feng thought that everything was surreal.

Unexpectedly, his left eye had opened a new ability: It could memorize any scene he witnessed and replay it perfectly.

If Zhao Feng was willing, he could open the scene and try to gain some insights. He knew that his knowledge of the outside world was limited. The Azure Flower continent had a countless number of countries. Just Sky Cloud Forest alone passed through more than ten countries. Sun Feather City was just a small city within a country.

Regaining his composure, Zhao Feng soon turned happy. Now that the Hyena was dead, nothing could stop him from leaving.

_I need to leave fast!_ Zhao Feng felt anxious as he thought about the main tournament.

The cave entrance was blocked by rocks. All he needed to do was open up a path.

_Peng!_

The smaller rocks were only about one-hundred and fifty kg. Just with his body alone, he could crush the rocks. If he added Inner Strength to it, the rocks would be shattered.

When Zhao Feng met larger rocks, he started to push them aside. Normal fifth rankers had seven hundred and fifty kg of strength using their body alone. Because Zhao Feng had trained the Metal Wall Technique to the fourth level, he had at least 1250 kg of power, five hundred more than what normal cultivators of the fifth rank had. Even so, the main use of Metal Wall Technique was to help increase one’s defense and not increase one’s power.

Zhao Feng finally opened the path up after half an hour. However, he didn’t leave immediately. There were still some precious resources left on the red rock wall.

_Raaah! Roar!_

At this moment, some deadly beasts and wild beasts began to scream.

“The body of the high tier deadly beast will attract more beasts.” Having been through this before, Zhao Feng immediately increased his speed. Like a rocket, he flew to the rock wall and took some of the plants. There was only one goal for him: to take the three one thousand year old plants. The thousand year blood plant, thousand year blood spirit grass, and the thousand year blood bamboo shoot.

He had a couple reasons for why he did this. First, he had to save time. There were many beasts gathering! Second, although the three hundred and five hundred year old plants were precious, Zhao Feng had already eaten many of them, so their effects weren’t that useful for him.

_Ceng!_

He didn’t dare stop after he took the plants.

Entering the canyon, there were already seven or eight deadly beasts fighting each other. There were also thirty strong wild beasts here, all of them had the strength of a fourth rank. Zhao Feng tried his best to dodge the beasts and headed straight towards the creek.

Although he tried to dodge the beasts, there were still some wild and deadly beasts that came for him.

“You’re courting death!” Zhao Feng shouted as his palm hit a low tier deadly beast.

_Craaack!_

The bones of the low tier deadly beast was instantly shattered. This attack of his was pure muscle, not a bit of Inner Strength used. The low tier deadly beast was slightly stronger than the Green Headed Tiger King he’d met when he first came to the Sky Cloud Forest.

Killing the beast in one hit caused the other wild beasts to scatter in fear, and following his memory, Zhao Feng made his way back the way he came.

On the way, he again met many deadly beasts. This was because the high tier deadly beast’s corpse just attracted way too many other animals.

“Flaming Metal Fist!” Zhao Feng shouted as a faint green glow poured out from his fist. The fist hit a low tier deadly beast whose strength was equal to a cultivator of the fifth rank. Under this one punch, the low tier deadly beast had its organs shattered.

With the use of the blood spirit grass and blood-red pond, his Inner Strength was much stronger than the Inner Strength of other fifth ranks. When he fully circulated Air Crossing Breathing Technique, he could instantly kill a cultivator of the same rank.

***************************

_One hour later..._

Zhao Feng finally reached the outer edges of the Sky Cloud Forest and rushed back towards Sun Feather City.

“I heard that the Zhao sect main tournament is ending soon.”

“The main tournament is divided into the Ranking challenge and the Spot challenge. Out of the one hundred people only fifty will be Inner disciples. The latter should be finished now. I’m so sad I couldn’t get to watch.”

On the way Feng heard some information about what was going on. After he returned to the sect, he didn’t immediately go towards the place where the main tournament was held, instead he first returned home and put the three one thousand year old plants away.

Quickly, he changed his clothes and rushed out the door. Zhao Feng used his Hiding Air Technique to show that his cultivation was only at the peak fourth rank. As for his Inner Strength, it was showing the fifth rank.
