The scene unfolding in the water curtain left everyone present frozen in shock.
Originally, some people believed that Yang Zhen was merely pretending to understand Sky Crossing Void with other martial skills and cultivation methods. However, now that even Hua Youyue was shocked, even the dullest of them knew that Yang Zhen must be practicing the Sky Crossing Void skill.
Lan Fangyue stared at Yang Zhen in disbelief, unable to tear her gaze away. Although Yang Zhen was just sitting quietly in his secret room, the figure formed by the gathering of his life force above his head was so realistic that it was almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
In just a few moments, Lan Fangyue could no longer distinguish which figure was the real Yang Zhen.
The secret room was not large, only the size of a street. Dozens of Yang Zhen figures moved and flipped in mid-air, each movement seemingly in harmony with heavenly law. At times, he would simply lean to the side, then suddenly glide several zhang away. The seamless transition from extreme stillness to extreme motion gave Lan Fangyue the strange feeling of being in a dream.
It was only at this moment that Lan Fangyue understood why Changyue Tower placed so much importance on the Sky Crossing Void skill. There was such a strange body technique in this world, the movements were elusive yet elegant, making it hard to grasp.
Medicine Elder’s eyes widened, he was completely frozen. The wine pot in his hand dropped to the ground with a clatter, the precious wine pouring out onto the floor, filling the secret room with the fragrance of alcohol.
“My god, this kid has actually succeeded. Is his talent really at such a frightening level?”
Medicine Elder murmured to himself, still somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing. He rubbed his eyes fiercely, the leftover wine burning them, and he howled in pain as he continued to rub, causing them to turn red.
Hua Youyue seemed to ignore Medicine Elder’s howl. She watched Yang Zhen blankly while a slight smile formed at the corner of her mouth. She said softly, “Finally, someone has obtained enlightenment on the Sky Crossing Void. I didn’t expect it to be a teenager. The world is indeed vast and filled with countless talented people. My master, Youyue has achieved enlightenment!”
Even after Yang Zhen pushed the door open and walked out, the crowd was still not able to recover from their shock. They dumbly watched as Yang Zhen entered Changyue Tower with Hua Youyue and the others.
“Am… am I dreaming?”
Someone murmured to himself. There were many practitioners who shared this thought. Once these words were spoken, the entire scene exploded into chaos.
“How could that shameless Yang Zhen possibly have understood Sky Crossing Void? This is just impossible!”
“Why do I feel that heaven is so unfair? Yang Zhen is so handsome, but he is so shameless. How can such a person have such a high talent. Isn’t that even higher than the Flower Tower Master’s?”
“Is it possible that he just got lucky? I refuse to believe that there are people with more talent than the Flower Tower Master in this world.”
“Why don’t you go get a stroke of luck?”
The crowd was in an uproar. Among them were those in disbelief, those in shock, and even those who wailed in disbelief. They refused to believe that the task set by the Flower Tower Master herself had been completed by a shameless youth.
Inside Changyue Tower, Medicine Elder circled around Yang Zhen, clicking his tongue in wonder, his eyes shining like lanterns.contemporary romance
“Good gracious, kid, you hide it well. You truly have understood the Sky Crossing Void. Quickly demonstrate it so that I can see.”
Yang Zhen looked at Medicine Elder with a careless smile and drawled, “Settle our bet first.”
“Ah haha, what bet? I don’t seem to understand what you are talking about,” the Medicine Elder feigned ignorance.
“A man of his word, Medicine Elder?” Yang Zhen sneered, “You should be called the Untrustworthy Medicine Elder.”
Medicine Elder rolled his eyes and mumbled, “Even Untrustworthy Medicine Elder is better than calling you master.”
Like Medicine Elder, Lan Fangyue was still in shock. She looked at Yang Zhen with a strange expression, “Did you really understand it?”
Yang Zhen waved his hand, “It’s not that exaggerated, it’s just a martial skill, I can teach it to you if you want.”
“Really?”
Before Lan Fangyue could speak, Hua Youyue, who had been staring intently at Yang Zhen, brightened and interjected.
Yang Zhen smiled at Hua Youyue and cheerfully said, “Of course you can, and it’s free!”
Hua Youyue froze for a moment, coughed lightly to regain her composure, and said, “Talents from the Water Spirit Country and Dajiang Country have arrived at Flame City, the inter-country trials are about to begin and the Sky Crossing Void can wait, let’s focus on the trials first.”
Yang Zhen was intrigued, “What talents or uglies, I’m not interested in them, but I heard there’s some sort of tower in the inter-country trials that’s different this year?”
Hua Youyue chuckled, “The Nine Realms Exquisite Tower is Flame City’s most renowned sacred land, a treasure passed down from the ancient times. It indeed has a difference this year.”
Medicine Elder, standing by the side, snorted, “Kid, although you’re talented, don’t be too confident. The Nine Realms Exquisite Tower may be mysterious, but you still have to gain entry.”
Yang Zhen was taken aback, “What do you mean, is it difficult to enter?”
Medicine Elder burst out laughing, clapped Yang Zhen on the shoulder and said, “Not really, the Inter-country trials is a competition between the most outstanding young talents from the three cultivation countries. You must be outstanding among them to enter the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower.”
Yang Zhen scoffed, “I thought it was going to be difficult. Do you think it’s hard for me to be outstanding among these people?”
“Tsk, kid, do you even know who you’re up against? Not to mention you, even Lan and the lad from the Ding family might not make it into the top ten.”
Yang Zhen turned to Lan Fangyue. He had seen her skills, she was very powerful at this age, amongst the practitioners in the Minor Mahayana Phase, she could be considered a standout.
If even someone like her couldn’t make it to the top ten, what kind of monsters were they up against?
Seeing Yang Zhen looking at her, Lan Fangyue gave a bitter smile and said, “Medicine Elder is right, those who came this time are from the Heartless Sect and the Valley of Flowers. These two sects have countless strong practitioners and are highly reputed among the younger generation.”
Yang Zhen didn’t seem too worried, as though the people they mentioned were all powerful leaders with cheats, he was about to speak when Hua Youyue looked at him with a deep meaning and said, “Yang Zhen, don’t take it lightly. If I’m not wrong, you should be the one facing the most difficulties in these trials, apart from the geniuses of the Valley of Flowers and the Heartless Sect, even the talents of Nether Sun Country might gang up against you. This time, it can be said you’re facing the world as an enemy!”
“What?” Yang Zhen was dumbfounded, “Why? That’s just bullying isn’t it?”
Lan Fangyue white-eyed Yang Zhen, basking in his misfortune, she said, “That’s because you’ve grasped the Sky Crossing Void!”
Yang Zhen opened his mouth, suddenly fell back into his chair, and said, “I don’t care, it’s all your fault, especially you, so beautiful yet so good at setting people up, you have to compensate me.”
“How should we compensate you?” Hua Youyue looked at the sulky Yang Zhen, intrigued.
“At least give me a couple of divine artifacts, or a few divine cultivation methods or martial skills?”
Lan Fangyue and Medicine Elder were dumbfounded.
Hua Youyue gave a small laugh and handed Yang Zhen a black badge, about the size of their palm.
“You can take this!”
Looking at the surprised expressions on the faces of Medicine Elder and Lan Fangyue, Yang Zhen knew this was extraordinary. Taking it over, he grinned, “What level of badge is this? Can I just boss around in Flame City?”
“This is the Dark Gold Guest status badge..1‘
