"Let's start the day, shall we." All the disciples wondered what kind of training they would have today, but what they did not expect was the huge pressure to fall upon them all of a sudden.
Their knees buckled as everyone had a different expression when they faced their current predicant.
Among them all, Ruo'er and Yuan Ming had the most persistence; despite the huge pressure, they failed to let their faces show their pain and suffering.
'What a monster.' From the corner of her eyes, Ruo'er noticed an odd thing. Everyone in the group was almost on the sa level—their bending knees, their body posture—everything indicated that they were facing the sa pressure, but that was impossible.
Each and every one of them was on a different level, be it their cultivation, bodies, or techniques—everything was different.
To be able to do sothing like that ant Noah was using different pressures on different people, and if controlling the qi to such a fine level was not monstrous, then nothing was.
Especially for soone who had not been in this world for less than a year.
Noah glanced at the expressions of all the disciples and carefully took note of their expressions before taking his pressure back.
"What was that for?!" Feeling the pressure suddenly disappearing, they all fell to the ground after losing balance.
Everyone looked at Tian Heng, the person who asked the question while casting a hateful look at Noah.
"That was for to check where you all stand currently." Noah ignored the snappy expression of the boy and replied.
The rest looked at Noah with a confused expression, but they did not receive any explanation from him at all.
"I have to say, all of you are disappointing." From the start, there was pure indifference on Noah's face. His cold eyes looked at everyone as if they were non-living objects.
"None of you used your qi to push the pressure back when you could have easily done that."
"Is it because you all are too idiotic or too prideful?" They all felt their blood boiling, seeing the disgusted look in Noah's eyes. "Whatever, I am only responsible for training you for one day."
The reason Noah even bothered to take one day to train them all was because Shisan asked him.
She wanted a day off to herself to take care of sothing important. Seeing the odd behavior of the woman, Noah accepted the task.
Hearing his cold assessnt, they all gritted their teeth in anger and annoyance.
'Who wants to be trained by you? Just leave already!' Tian Heng thought while glaring at Noah, thinking that the man had nothing to teach them.
It was then it happened…
When they all thought Noah would be training them like Shisan, in a brute way, Noah proved that they could not have been more wrong.
Noah snapped his fingers and enveloped everyone in an illusion array. In this array, they all faced Noah.
They did not see anyone else in the area, only themselves and Noah. Out of nowhere, 'Noah' attacked them, forcing them to use their techniques.
Before they even realized what was happening, Noah one them copied their techniques and started using them against them.
Before they realized it, they found themselves lost in the battle. Unknown to them, Noah guided their techniques in the middle of the battle, allowing them to get better at using them.
"What? Did it end already?"
"I will kill this bastard!"
"What happened?"
"Where are we?!"
Suddenly they all found themselves back on the training platform, standing in the sa position they were standing in before.
It was only when they noticed the presence of each other did they realized that they were no longer in the illusion but in reality.
When they tried to search for Noah, they found he was long gone.
A long ti had passed since they were in the illusion; even the sun that was once high in the sky was disappearing behind the tall mountains.
They were so engrossed in their battles that no one noticed the passage of ti.
'Shit! I forgot to talk to him!' Snapping out of her daze, Ma Li just realized the most important thing that she wanted to do but forgot.
…
"Is it alright for you to leave them in the illusion like that?" Back in the cultivation chambers of the Elders, Noah woke up from his ditating stance and glanced at the woman who had just walked in.
"I can control that spell from here, so it's fine. Besides, their training just ended." Noah's reply caused Xin Yan to raise her eyebrows in wonder, but she did not continue on the topic and looked around the cave.
"How is the training on your side?"
"She is really tenacious. After suffering from the painful bath, she jumped straight into weapon training. She likes twin blades for so reason." Xin Yan chuckled in return, recalling the training she had been giving Wu Ping all day.
"When you were in seclusion these two weeks, I visited the royal capital." Xin Yan suddenly changed the topic. Hearing the somber tone in her voice, Noah also listened attentively. "I heard that Wuhan finally spread the word about the event."
"It caused a lot of ripples in the kingdom. Several forces have made their move in secret to sabotage this event, but the rules of the event will only allow geniuses to participate."
"They fear that if they send their geniuses, they will lose face if they are recognized." Noah understood what Xin Yan wanted to say next. He grinned, seeing how Wuhan executed his plan with perfect consideration.
Noah could see Xin Yan had sothing else on her mind as well, so he silently looked at her, prompting her to speak.
"Is that the reason why you called that man to the capital city? To fight him in this event and use the audience to humiliate him?" After she heard about the event's details for the first ti in the royal city, Xin Yan recalled how Noah asked the trash from the Long family to et him in the royal city.
"Looks like our Xin Yan has grown smarter~" Before Noah could speak, another voice rang in the room. Realizing the identity of the person, both of their eyes widened in surprise.
'That b*tch is back!'
