19 What In The World Is This? (1/2)

”People are desperate this year, too. I favoring the kid standing at the base. His demeanor makes him feel like an ancient cultivator.”

A man wearing a golden laced robe sat at the end of the judge's panel. He drank his wine in a very glutinous manner. Other people sitting in the judge's panel were looking at him in a respectful manner. As soon as he said that, they were nodding and agreeing with him.

”Yes, you are very right!”

”Please, don't mind them. Continue with your drink!”

Even though there were people swarming the man, there was always people who oppose the popular.

”This year, there are many geniuses including Hun Mang and Kong Du. I personally bet on Hun Mang since he placed 1st in the entrance exams for my sect.”

The man who was drinking just grunted and stayed silent.

”Don't mind him. He just wants to brag how her person will win the first place's prize. This year's prizes are more prized than usual.”

”Get out of my way!!”

Hun Mang pushed many participants in front of him off the platforms. Many managed to survive when they were strong or not high up yet. Others, however, went down and died in a puddle of blood and gore. Jiang Chen just shut his eyes as he waited for the loading bar to fill up.

Hun Mang was currently first as he was growing tired by the second. His weight was increased by 4 folds and his strength was sapped away when he was climbing the earlier steps. He looked back and grinned in a provocative way.

”Trash!”

Other people who heard his taunt was so angry that they spat out blood from their mouth. Some collapsed from the anger that they accumulated inside their body. None of them spoke back as they were afraid they might be killed if they did. Hun Mang humphed and turned around to continue on his path up.
