Chapter 880: Seventh-ranked Half-Demon (1/2)
There was no need to buy any defensive talisman with the turtle around. Nonetheless, Feiyun chose to be safe and bought twenty.
There were ten Kun Peng speed talismans as well, created with the blood of these creatures. Once placed on the thigh, it could increase speed by threefold.
Feiyun was already extremely fast with Swift Samsara. His speed would reach a frightening level with this talisman.
He also bought a worm-hole stone just in case outside of the pills and talismans.
Eight offensive, twenty defensive, and ten speed talismans on top of one worm-hole stone.
Feiyun spent all of his spirit stones before traveling in the night back to the alliance.
On the second day, the sun hasn’t fully risen yet. There was still fog and mist in the air.
“Ooo-” A horn rang in the alliance and all the half-demons came to the square.
In just one hour, tens of thousand demons could be seen. They still kept it relatively quiet.
Feiyun wasn’t with the group this time since he was assigned to the first-level Nirvana section.
It had around ten thousand demons or so all at the first level chosen from more than eight thousand domains. They were the top elites of this race.
There was a man with a horn on his forehead; another resembled a mermaid; one beauty had a pair of wings. They looked quite spirited and bold, unlike most dejected half-demons.
A hunchback old man was as old as can be; all of his teeth were nearly gone. He had two large lumps sticking out of his back almost like a camel.
Feiyun saw a sixth-ranked badge hanging by his waist. Remember, even the domain lord of Season only had a fifth-ranked badge. Those at the sixth rank were pillars of the half-demons, always under protection.
The appearance of the old man changed the atmosphere of the square. Various flows channeled towards him and formed an invisible maelstrom. All eyes were on him.
His eyes were sharp; each glance seemed like a needle capable of attacking the mind. Several hundred half-demons couldn’t handle this and fell to the ground, unconscious.
“Those who staggered or fell down are out of the competition. Return to your own domain within three days.” He said emotionlessly.
Some of the half-demons couldn’t accept this. One of them said: “Sir, your cultivation is too high, not that we were afraid. We simply couldn’t withstand it.”
“I just took one step backward then, please test me again! I won’t retreat another time.”
The old man coldly uttered: “Accept reality. Others are at the same level as you yet they didn’t retreat. This shows that your mental state is not ready for the battlefield. Keep on training.”
No one dared to retort this time and quietly left. Their expression was one of unwillingness and self-blame. The unconscious ones were also carried away.
Just one glance from him eliminated 1,800 elite half-demons. The remaining contestants were quite excellent, one in a hundred million.
The old man nodded approvingly and said: “You’re all geniuses with great potential. Welcome, you’re officially in the first elite camp. I will watch you in the next several days and see who all are qualified to represent us at the myriad-race battlefield. Now, your teacher who is a seventh-ranked demon, Lord Qin Ji, will have something to say.”
“!!! Our teacher is a legendary seventh rank?!”
“I’ve heard my grandfather talk about Lord Qin Ji before. She’s a first-generation capable of fighting against Heaven’s Emergence cultivators. She’s a leader among the half-demons.”
Feiyun listened to the discussions and became quite curious about this teacher.
“Whoosh!” A blue radiance descended on the platform in front of them. This person had flames around her in the shape of lotus flowers.
No one could see her appearance, only her incredible strength. She looked like a floating star; people couldn’t help getting on one knee.
This had nothing to do with fear, merely admiration and respect. All half-demons wanted to reach the seventh rank.
Only three remained standing. One of them was Feiyun.
