It has to be said that Wang Zheng's Chiyun is quite something.
The semi-transparent spiritual energy shield that blocked the wind meant that even carrying an unawakened person wouldn't be too strenuous for him.
Awakened beings don't need to use their own spiritual energy to cover their bodies, which can be considered a representative of energy conservation.
Compared to the leisurely mental type and the explosive elemental type after transformation, this Crimson Cloud not only has a more otherworldly quality, but is also much easier to manage.
Wang Zheng watched Chu Tianxing eating steamed buns and fried dough sticks in the heavens, and suddenly felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
However, Wang Zheng is no longer enjoying the same treatment as when he flies alone, because Chu Tianxing is sitting cross-legged in front, while Wang Zheng is standing alone on the edge of the crimson cloud.
Of course, this is infinitely better than being held in Old Man Chu's arms or grabbed by the back of his neck.
He wanted to make the crimson clouds gather beneath his feet and make Old Man Chu stagger, but he only dared to think about it and never dared to put it into action.
After Chu Tianxing finished the last cup of soy milk, he handed the trash in his hand to Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng, who was still cursing, immediately put on a sycophantic act, smiled and took it, then casually tossed it into his storage ring.
Chu Tianxing smacked his lips, looking at the crimson cloud that had left a sword-like mark in the clouds, and asked Wang Zheng with some curiosity:
"Has your flight speed increased? It's much faster than the day you broke through. I bet it's not even slower than when I fly using my mental power."
Taking advantage of the fact that he was standing behind Old Man Chu and the other man couldn't see his expression, Wang Zheng rolled his eyes in annoyance.
'Versailles? What I care about is your lightning speed! Wait till I reach level 10, my speed will scare you to death!'
But his verbal response was unusually honest.
"It's my first time, so I lacked experience. I practiced a lot while you were killing the demon king. I'm a seasoned pro now, so it's normal for me to be faster."
Chu Tianxing thought it made sense, so without much thought, he took out the locator and started studying it, pretending to point in the direction he was going, acting like a walking map.
Little did he know that on the very night he left, Wang Zheng's skills had already undergone a complete evolution.
The journey from Kunming to Tengchong is nearly 600 kilometers, which should only take Wang Zheng about 2 hours at his current speed.
So once Wang Zheng had eliminated Chu Tianxing's interference and determined the location, he immediately increased the flight speed to the maximum and headed west. Soon, he could vaguely see the outline of this border town.
Looking down from mid-air, apart from some traces of human life to the east of Tengchong, the view to the northwest is entirely of towering mountains and dense forests.
At Chu Tianxing's prompting, Wang Zheng landed far outside the city and then walked towards the city along a badly damaged old road.
Looking at this small city with its towering walls, marked by repaired cracks, Wang Zheng was deeply shocked.
As soon as the two reached the city gate, a soldier on duty politely approached them to greet them.
This young man watched Wang Zheng and Chu Tianxing descend from mid-air, and the border soldiers would never do anything like looking down on people or deliberately making things difficult for them.
However, basic identity verification is still necessary. Although it's practically impossible for a demon king to sneak in like that, it's still necessary to prevent awakened individuals from other countries from smuggling themselves in.
After Wang Zheng and Chu Tianxing showed their identification, the soldier politely stepped aside and asked if they needed a car to take them to the military region.
However, Chu Tianxing rejected the suggestion, and Wang Zheng was also curious about this important border town, constantly looking around.
So the two of them went straight into the city and began to stroll through the streets.
Tengchong is indeed a small city, a square city with only a few main roads.
Go straight along the main road at the city gate, cross it all the way, and you will soon reach the west gate leading out of the city.
After confirming that Tengchong would be the location for the training exercise, Wang Zheng had already thoroughly investigated the details of the area.
The city is currently divided into two main areas.
Firstly, the side closest to the west gate is the military zone. In the middle, apart from a wide street leading directly out of the city, countless Chinese soldiers are stationed there to guard against the alien beasts outside the city.
Ordinary people are not allowed to linger there.
On the other side of Tengchong City lies the East District, separated by a wide river.
Standing there are various additional buildings that were developed due to their proximity to the heart of the battlefield.
For example, there was the Adventurers' Guild in Spring City before, as well as shops opened by various merchant groups, and small shops that recycled and processed all kinds of monster materials, crystals, corpses, etc.
Closest to the east gate was a large residential area, where people made a living in this dangerous border town.
Despite the dangers here, with air raid sirens sounding every few days, the housing prices are anything but cheap; it's just that the houses here are only for rent, not for sale.
The reason, of course, was that the mortality rate was too high, so the military simply canceled the sale of houses and started the rental business instead, which turned out to be quite successful.
