Chapter 53: Lian Chong

  At the moment when Li Luos drinking sound entered his ears, Yu Lang also had a flash of thoughts in his mind. After all, with the current situation, closing his eyes would undoubtedly give the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of him. However, based on his understanding of Li Luos style of doing things, he still gritted his teeth and closed his eyes.

  So, when the dazzling light burst out for a moment, Yu Lang avoided the stimulation of the light and relied on his previous memory route to stretch out his hand and grab the ghost face fruit.

  On the other hand, the figure who launched the surprise attack was startled by the sudden strong light, his eyes stinging in pain, and his speed slowed down involuntarily.

  A bright light flashed and quickly disappeared.

  Yu Lang, however, had grasped the Ghost Face Fruit and immediately his face turned cold and cruel. A slender sword shot out from his sleeve, with a surge of blue energy that brought forth a breaking wind sound, mercilessly stabbing at the figure mere inches away.

  "Hmm."

  The attacker also realized that his sneak attack had failed, and immediately let out a cold hum, punching out a fist with yellow energy roaring, carrying heavy force to collide head-on with Yu Lang.

  The powerful force surged forward, and the figure of the ambushers body was only visible for a brief moment. In contrast, Yu Langs figure was reflected back out, landing on the ground not far away.

  As Yu Lang succeeded in that instant, Li Luo and Zhao Kuo also quickly left the attack range of the Ghost Face Demon Vine Tree, then rushed to Yu Langs side, their eyes coldly staring at the figure in front.

  "Haha, what a quick reaction. Yet, none of you managed to grab it." The figure chuckled softly in the face of the three peoples icy stares.

  At this time, he also revealed his figure, a tall and sturdy young man with short hair, his body full of muscles, giving off an aura of brutal power that was visually oppressive.

  "Someone from Dongyuan Academy?" Zhao Kuais eyes landed on the crystal badge on his opponents chest, where the school emblem belonged to Dongyuan Academy.

  "He is Lian Chong of Dongyuan Academy, the second in Dongyuan Academy, sixth-grade earth phase, eighth-grade seal power." Yu Lang, on the other hand, revealed his opponents identity and information with one word, and it was no wonder that he had compiled the examination materials. He was familiar with the top students of each university.

  Li Luoshens expression was calm and collected as he said, "People from the Dongyuan Academy are so fond of snatching things? Your teaching philosophy has some serious issues."

  "In the rules of the big exam, it doesnt say that you cant rush, oh." Lian Chong said with a sly smile.

  "It doesnt matter if we grab things or not, the key is that after hiding like a mouse for half a day, I still havent grabbed anything, and thats a bit infuriating." Li Luo said with a smile.

  The smile on Lian Chongs face faded a bit, this time he was ambushed, he had been planning for a long time, originally thought that he would definitely be able to capture him easily, and then he could mock his opponent, but unexpectedly Li Luo reacted so quickly, directly counterattacking, causing him to lose his hand.

  "Li Luo, I really underestimated you."

  Lian Zhongs gaze was fixed on Li Luo, and he immediately smiled faintly: "But this is just a flavoring dish, you dont have to be proud."

  "So youre still after me?"

  "No way, the boss has spoken, hes busy and cant entertain you, so let us find some fun for you." Lian Zhong said with a seemingly helpless smile.

  "Whats wrong?" Li Luo seemed to be thinking about something.

  "Its pointless to fight you now, after all, we cant take points here. Once this round is over and the elimination match begins, Ill come looking for you," Lian Chong said.

  He glanced at Zhao Kuang and Yu Lang, saying: "You two, if youre smart enough, would do well to part ways with him as soon as possible. Eldest has given the order, and everyone from Dongyuan Academy will be targeting him. If you follow him, its just asking for trouble."

  "Get out of here."

  Zhao Kuangs eyes widened in anger as he cursed: "Id love for you dogs from Dongyuan Academy to come and deliver your own demise!"

  Yu Lang shook the slender sword in his hand, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face: "Li Luo and I are bound by life and death, our feelings run deep like the sea. If you want me to leave him, unless... you pay more."

  "Whatever, I dont care." Jian Zhong shook his head and didnt bother to say more. His figure moved, and he headed towards the depths of the dark forest.

  "Give me a number at least, or we can still haggle if its really not possible!" Yu Lang said hastily.

  He wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Li Luo: "Theres no need to waste time here, and its not interesting to make a move here either. Besides, we cant take his points."

  "Damn it, too arrogant." Yu Lang cursed and grumbled, obviously still angry, but it was unclear whether he was angry at Jian Chong for trying to sneak up on him or at the other party for not even being willing to add a little extra.

  Zhao Kuang looked at Li Luo and frowned, saying: "Luo Ge, if the people from Dongyuan Academy really target you in the future, we can also find other people to counter them."

  If you dont find anyone, the other side will obviously have more people and momentum.

  "No rush, lets take a look first."

  Li Luo was relatively calm, but the master seemed to have underestimated him, so he handed over his tasks to Lian Zhong and others. However, if the other party really wanted to do so, then he wouldnt mind letting them know what it means to hit a dog with a meat bun, coming and going without any return.

  Huh? No, Im not a dog.

  "Here, this is what I got this time." Yu Lang handed over the Ghost Face Fruit in his hand.

  "Lets give it to Zhao Kou first, he suffered the most." Li Luo said with a smile.

  At this time, Zhao Kuangs body still had strips of blood marks on it, looking quite miserable. However, these were just superficial wounds, and with his defensive power, he would be able to recover quickly.

  Zhao Kuang heard this and didnt say much, stretched out his hand to take the Ghost Face Fruit, anyway he would help Li Luo later, Yu Lang would snatch another Ghost Face Fruit.

  He grasped the Ghost Face Fruit, then pinched it to pieces, took out the fruit kernel, squeezed hard, and finally squeezed out a drop of green juice that dripped onto the crystal badge on his chest, merging into it.

  Then the points on the crystal plate jumped directly to one hundred.

  "Lets go, continue with the second one." Li Luo said, and then continued deeper with the two of them.

  In the next hour, the three of them found two more Ghost Face Devil Trees and continued to harvest them without any further interruptions. They successfully obtained the two Ghost Face Fruits, and Li Luo and Yu Langs basic points also reached one hundred.

  After the base points reached one hundred, continuing to seize the ghost face fruit had no effect, so the three people did not stay any longer and directly started moving at full speed towards the direction of the third round elimination match.

  ...

  At the foot of Bailingshan Mountain, on the surface of a huge crystal wall, points are constantly changing and jumping.

  Innumerable eyes focused on it, and it was quite a lively scene.

  On the scoreboard, its still a clean sweep of full marks occupying the top ranks, with a solid 200 basic points, and among these people, Lv Qinger and Shi Kuang are leading the way.

  And most strikingly, above the crystal wall, there are two mirror surfaces projecting images, with considerable visual impact.

  The first was Lü Qinger, who stood elegantly on top of a ghost-faced demonic vine tree. At this moment, the vines that were usually extremely troublesome had all been frozen by the ice crystals. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, her figure slender and delicate, complementing her beautiful and moving face. In that instant, it was unknown how many people caught a glimpse of the charm of the number one person from Nanfeng Academy.

  And the second scene is Shi Kuang, he holds a ghost face fruit in his hand, with a smile on his face. Behind him is a magic vine tree emitting black smoke, and occasionally there are flashes of lightning.

  These two people defeated the Devils Vine alone and seized the Ghost Mask Fruit.

  Their impressive performance also earned them a bigger reputation. Everyone understands that the top scorer in this years exam is likely to be one of these two people.

  Cai Wei and Yan Lingqing didnt pay much attention to these scenes, their eyes were fixed on the scoreboard. When they saw Li Luos score finally changed from zero to one hundred, they let out a sigh of relief.

  Although this review node is just for basic points, if Li Luo really gets two zero points in, its a bit too weird.

  As more and more students obtained the Ghost Face Fruit by various means, the atmosphere here also began to become increasingly boiling, because everyone knew that the two rounds of assessment were just a prelude, providing some basic points for each person to use in the next elimination match.

  So when the knockout stage begins, this big test is officially underway.

  ...

  In the White Spirit Mountain.

  Li Luo, Yu Lang and Zhao Kuo walked out of the dark forest, a stream appeared in front of them. On the other side of the stream was a complex terrain of rolling hills, filled with trees and giant rocks.

  The three of them exchanged a glance, understanding each others thoughts. Once they crossed the stream, it would be the venue for the elimination match.

  But they didnt hesitate much, and in the blink of an eye, they flashed across the river that was several meters wide, set foot on the opposite bank, and started the elimination round of the grand exam.
