“Every time, some passengers will gain opportunities from the competition. Perhaps she was also very lucky to encounter an opportunity that suited her, at least giving her a chance to achieve a ranking that is more suitable for her.”
You're right.
The other two cloaked figures nodded, finding some truth in it. Lin Xun in the previous competition had encountered the right opportunity, causing his strength to surge. Although his final ranking was insignificant in the eyes of established passengers like Mo Wuqiong and Jiang, Lin Xun still became a dark horse that time, crushing countless confident passengers.
Lin Xun has now become one of the ten most powerful newly emerging inspectors.
"After all, she is Mr. Song's chosen successor. In any case, I hope she can achieve a good ranking and not embarrass Mr. Song."
One of the cloaked figures pondered for a moment, then shook his head. “I think it’s unlikely. This competition isn’t about individuals, but about the entire team.” As he spoke, he flipped through the records of each passenger’s battles. “Except for the two sinners who are slightly stronger, the rest of her team are too weak. Once they actually face off against the passengers, it will be very difficult for them to win.”
"Let's keep watching, maybe a miracle will really happen."
Besides Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo, Yun Chen and Cheng Hua also made it to the same place as them, and they seemed quite relaxed. They didn't stop after entering and went straight to the passage.
Originally, Yun Chen was walking ahead, but Cheng Hua was naturally talkative. However, Yun Chen ignored him, and he felt bored with no one to talk to. Childishly, he sped up and ran ahead, chuckling smugly.
Yun Chen stared coldly at Cheng Hua. Just when Cheng Hua thought he wouldn't react, he felt a blur before his eyes, and when he looked again, Yun Chen was already in front of him. "You actually secretly overtook me?!"
"Hmph, you're the one who's sneaking around."
Yun Chen actually let out a cold snort.
And so you could see the two childish ghosts chasing each other in the tunnel, one overtaking the other, while the spreading black mist couldn't get close to them at all. Occasionally, the mist would get close, but Yun Chen would disdainfully swat it away with a palm.
In contrast to the ease of the two, Liu Dongcheng and Chen Jiaxu, who were still fighting the boy, were already at their limit.
Liu Dongcheng not only had to dodge the boy's attacks, but also had to find a way to harm the boy. It was already very difficult to accomplish these two tasks, but in addition to this, he also had to keep a close eye on Chen Jiaxu's condition, for fear that he might accidentally expose the horn on his forehead.
When Chen Jiaxu met Liu Dongcheng's gaze again, his lips twitched and his fists clenched slightly. He said, "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
"Hehe, quite the brotherhood." The young man chuckled, then suddenly turned and swung his sword fiercely at Chen Jiaxu.
From the start of the fight, he had been targeting Liu Dongcheng, while Chen Jiaxu seemed to only glance at him casually. The nearly half-hour battle had led them to assume that the boy's target had always been Liu Dongcheng, so neither Liu Dongcheng nor Chen Jiaxu himself had anticipated the boy's sudden attack.
At this moment, Liu Dongcheng was separated from the boy by more than ten meters. It was impossible for him to cross those ten meters to save Chen Jiaxu!
Chen Jiaxu's pupils also contracted sharply. He quickly raised his hand to cover his forehead and dodged away with an extremely terrifying speed.
Chen Jiaxu, who had fallen to the ground, was panting heavily. He immediately stood up and ran towards Liu Dongcheng, but the boy seemed to have seen that he had just dodged the attack, so he did not continue to treat him as if he were invisible.
Chen Jiaxu, who was being chased by the teenager, was on the verge of tears. Under normal circumstances, he would probably have collapsed by now, but he was not. Instead, he was dodging at an extremely terrifying speed. Even Liu Dongcheng noticed that something was wrong with him.
But they were still in the middle of a battle, so it wasn't the time to think about these things. Liu Dongcheng frowned and then continued to focus his attention on the boy.
"Damn it! There's no time left!"
Chen Jiaxu, his face deathly pale, uttered a curse. His hand, which was covering his forehead, began to tremble violently. The color of his pupils gradually turned into a faint red, though so faint that it would go unnoticed unless one looked closely.
The young man chasing Chen Jiaxu frowned slightly. This guy shouldn't be able to dodge his attack. What went wrong?
Just as the boy was pondering this question, he suddenly saw the guy who had been running for his life suddenly pounce on him.
Overestimating one's abilities.
With a cold snort, the young man raised his hand, but just as he was about to swing his longsword, he felt a sharp pain in his back. Chen Jiaxu, who had been a few meters away, suddenly rushed in front of the young man and grabbed his arm while the young man was being attacked by Liu Dongcheng.
"You forced me to do this." Chen Jiaxu glared at the boy through gritted teeth.
A wisp of black energy entered the boy's body, causing him to stagger forward a few steps.
Chen Jiaxu relentlessly pursued, yelling as he grabbed the boy by the neck. Wisps of black energy emanating from his fingers frantically entered the boy's body. Gradually, Chen Jiaxu stopped trembling. He looked down at the boy, whose eyes were somewhat unfocused, and whispered, "So this is what it feels like to be powerful."
All of this actually happened very quickly. From the time Chen Jiaxu grabbed the boy to the time he let go and was teleported to the audience seats with Liu Dongcheng, less than half a minute had passed.
Liu Dongcheng frowned as he looked at Chen Jiaxu.
Chen Jiaxu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained, "I just wanted to try it out, I didn't expect it to actually work. I... even though I've become like this, my strength seems to have increased a lot." He then looked at his fingers in fear, "I think I saw black energy coming from my hands just now, could I really have completely turned into...?"
