Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Chen Feng
Editor: Exodus Tales

No matter whether it was to achieve first place in the second stage of the contest or to win the ten thousand gold coins, everyone was diligently fusing with Beast Blood.

Only Su Han sat there cross-legged, his eyes also tightly shut, but he showed no signs of fusing with Beast Blood.

“If he dares to do this, he must have his reasons. Yuhui, there’s no need for you to worry,” Bai Yu said.

Although he said this, he was somewhat pleased inside because Xiao Yuhui had initially thought highly of Su Han and, from beginning to end, no matter what Su Han had done, it seemed that Xiao Yuhui always believed that Su Han could take first place in this selection.

Now, it was clear. Su Han stood alone against thousands, betting millions of gold coins, and had even completely offended Ping Yuzi.

At this moment, Su Han still treated the matter as if it were a child’s play, hardly taking it seriously!

Bai Yu, who fancied Xiao Yuhui and secretly considered her his woman, saw Xiao Yuhui’s anxious demeanor and casually consoled her a few times.

In his view, Su Han was merely putting on a brave front.

In fact, what he didn’t realize was that his words were extremely accurate.

Su Han dared to do so because he had his reasons for doing it!

“Whoosh!”

As time passed, merely two hours later, a burst of red light explosively emanated from someone’s forehead.

This red light quickly condensed, and at last, a star appeared at the center of their forehead.

With the appearance of this star, the person opened their eyes, immediately stood up, and leaped into the Second Order Beast Blood Pool.

“Hahaha, it’s Leng Yihui again!”

Ping Yuzi had long considered Leng Yihui his disciple, and seeing that the first to condense a star was again Leng Yihui, he immediately burst out laughing.

“The old man was not mistaken about him. Just two hours and he completely fused with the First Order Beast Blood, which shows his physique’s capability of fusing at least with Fourth Order or higher Beast Blood!”

Bai Yu said with a smile, “Grand Elder, this lad has great potential for Dragon Vein Activation, and to think his physique is also formidable. Although Dragon Vein is one of the most important talents, the physique is also very important. With such a strong physique like Leng Yihui’s, even if he cannot catch up with Yuhui, he will at least become a strong figure above the Dragon Pill Realm in the future. We might as well congratulate the Grand Elder now.”

Ping Yuzi shook his head and smiled, “It’s too early for congratulations. The stronger the talent he displays, the more people will keep an eye on him. Above me, there are many more elders of the sect. If they want to take him as a disciple, I can do nothing about it.”

“It mainly depends on his own choice. If he chooses you as his master, no one else has the right to object,” Bai Yu said.

“Haha, that’s true!”

Ping Yuzi nodded in agreement, and it was precisely because of this that he was confident to take Leng Yihui as his disciple.

…

As Leng Yihui entered the Second Order Blood Pool, others like Hu Zhengyao and Yang Lin also condensed stars and entered the Second Order Blood Pool.

The talent of these three individuals was essentially on the same level, so the speed of fusing with the Beast Blood was not crucial; what mattered was how high of an order they could fuse with.

The fourth person to enter the Second Order Blood Pool was Chen Feng.

As he stood up, his gaze fell on Su Han, his lips curling up into a sinister smile.

“It’s been such a long time, and you still haven’t begun to fuse?”

“Su Han, are you too scared to fuse, or simply disinclined to fuse?”

“Whether you’re scared or unwilling, the gap between us has already begun to widen quickly. Forget about you; even Leng Yihui and the others, I’m not even considering them a challenge!”

Soon after Chen Feng stood up, a series of figures entered the Second Order Blood Pool.

Among these thousands of people, the least capable had activated five Dragon Veins, which on the Dragon Martial Continent was considered above average; thus, they could definitely step into the Dragon Blood Realm. This was also one of the conditions for the Cold Cloud Sect to accept disciples.

If they hadn’t even activated five Dragon Veins, how could they talk about Beast Blood Fusion?

As long as someone had activated five Dragon Veins, at the very least, they could fuse with First Order Beast Blood.

The last person to enter the Second Order Blood Pool did so at the two-hour mark.

It could also be said he was the second-to-last because in that First Order Blood Pool, there was still one person left, and that was Su Han.

Until that moment, Su Han had not started to guide the beast blood into his body.

Ping Yuzi no longer cared about him, whatever Su Han was thinking was none of his concern— as long as one of these thousands of people could win.

…

As time gradually passed, at the third hour, Leng Yihui entered the Third Order Blood Pool.

At the seventh hour, someone entered the Fourth Order Blood Pool.

However, this person surprised Ping Yuzi and the others since it was not Leng Yihui but Hu Zhengyao.

Moreover, after Hu Zhengyao, Yang Lin also swiftly entered the Fourth Order Blood Pool, putting Leng Yihui in third place in terms of speed.

Just when everyone thought Leng Yihui would be the third to enter the Fourth Order Blood Pool, another dark horse emerged.

That was Chen Feng!

Chen Feng emerged from the Third Order Blood Pool, leapt up, and surprisingly skipped the Fourth Order Blood Pool, directly entering the Fifth Order Blood Pool!

“What?”

“He directly entered the Fifth Order Blood Pool? Isn’t that too arrogant?”

“It’s not arrogance. Look at his expression. Although it is solemn, he can totally withstand the pressure of the Fifth Order Blood Pool.”

Many people were looking at Chen Feng, who was already sitting cross-legged inside the enormous Fifth Order Blood Pool, alone in the pool, radiating a dazzling light like a crane amongst chickens.

His expression was serious as he seemed to be withstanding the pressure fiercely. Although he had started to guide the beast blood into his body, his speed was much slower compared to before.

If he continued at this pace, by the time the second challenge ended, he would barely be able to condense the fifth Star.

Nevertheless, this was already extremely impressive. A Fifth Order Demonic Beast was equivalent to a human in the Dragon God Realm. Although the blood was artificial, the pressure was no different from the real thing. The fact that Chen Feng could withstand that pressure and still guide the beast blood into his body showed that his physique was indeed very strong.

“Unexpected indeed…”

Ping Yuzi sighed lightly, “I originally thought Leng Yihui would be the first in this second test; I did not expect that he has already been overtaken by three people, especially that little guy Chen Feng, who hid his abilities so deeply. This old man is now curious to see how many Dragon Veins he will have activated by the third challenge.”

“It should be more than nine.”

Bai Yu said solemnly, “Physique and Dragon Veins are unrelated, but the more Dragon Veins one opens, the stronger the pressure one can withstand. He can withstand the pressure of the Fifth Order Blood Pool, so he must have opened at least nine Dragon Veins.”

“Nine Dragon Veins… When Yuhui first joined the sect, she had opened only eight, right?” Ping Yuzi said with a smile.

Bai Yu replied, “You can’t really say that. Even if Chen Feng really has already opened nine Dragon Veins, whether he can open the tenth is still uncertain.”

…

Now you can reward us! Brothers and sisters, give South Mountain some encouragement; let South Mountain see how many are supporting him, okay?

Honestly, looking at the present achievements, it’s really somewhat exhausting…
