When an opponent could no longer hold on, they would be teleported out. There was no need to worry about injuring mbers of the Observatory.
His objective was simple: eliminate everyone as quickly as possible.
With this in mind, Shen Bai circulated the Qi in his body and activated Divine Thousand Miles.
This ti, Shen Bai did sothing quite peculiar.
He took only a few steps forward before a fierce wind whipped up around him, roaring past his ears.
Shen Bai’s body imdiately lifted off the ground, hovering in mid-air.
The flying ability granted by Divine Thousand Miles after its second major advancent was perfectly suited for this mont.
From his high vantage point, Shen Bai had an unobstructed view of his surroundings.
Once he was high in the air, Shen Bai imdiately spotted several figures furtively looking for hiding spots.
Although Feng Zheng had said the map’s boundaries would continuously shrink, making hiding pointless in the long run, the initial area was vast. Hiding for a while could still buy them a significant amount of ti.
None of these Observatory mbers were fools. Those who chose to hide were hoping to wait out the initial chaos, letting others eliminate each other first. The fewer opponents left, the better.
Seeing the furtive figures, a small smile touched Shen Bai’s lips. He beca a blur and shot toward them.
...
Outside, a massive mirror materialized before Feng Zheng. It was divided into countless panes, each one displaying the situation of a different participant.
The mirror was enormous, stretching over a hundred ters. Even divided, each section was perfectly clear.
The Third Prince waved his folded fan, saying nothing, but his eyes were fixed on the section showing Shen Bai.
He had expected Shen Bai to search for his targets systematically on the ground. He never imagined Shen Bai would just take flight, a sight that stunned the Third Prince into silence.
Beside him, Ouyang Wu’s eyes widened at the sight.
"Lord Shen can fly?"
Feng Zheng and the two other judges, representatives of the Daoist and Buddhist Influence, were observing each of the participants.
They were systematically scanning the mirror from top to bottom, remaining ever vigilant.
After all, even with the Daoist Sect’s technique acting as a failsafe, nothing was ever truly foolproof.
If sothing went wrong, they needed to be ready to intervene.
The mont Ouyang Wu cried out in shock, Feng Zheng and the other two judges instinctively turned and followed the Third Prince’s gaze.
And then, they saw Shen Bai rising into the sky.
"He’s only in the ridian Realm, yet he can actually fly. He must be using so special cultivation technique," Feng Zheng remarked.
Beside them, an old Daoist in a Daoist robe stroked his long beard and chuckled. "This young man’s special cultivation technique is remarkably profound. Gentlen, look at his speed—it’s even faster than if he were on the ground."
The Buddhist Sect Monk next to him also nodded in agreent. "This cultivation technique is of the highest caliber. I have no idea where the young man learned it. I have never seen anything like it."
Ordinary cultivation techniques that focused on speed, even those that granted flight, usually ca with significant drawbacks.
For instance, both flying speed and maneuverability would be compromised.
After all, for a technique to enable soone below the Unity Realm to fly, it must focus solely on that ability, inevitably sacrificing others.
Yet Shen Bai was not only flying but also maintaining other functions simultaneously. The three of them couldn’t help but be astounded.
Feng Zheng glanced back and said, "Your Highness, it seems you made the right decision."
As an organization, the Observatory naturally had a comprehensive intelligence network, so they knew exactly what the Third Prince had been doing since Shen Bai’s arrival.
With his intellect, Feng Zheng had naturally guessed the Third Prince’s intentions, hence his comnt.
He knew the Third Prince had sought to befriend Shen Bai, and he was glad for it. Otherwise, given what Shen Bai was demonstrating, the Prince would have made an enemy he absolutely could not afford to have.
After hearing Feng Zheng’s words, the Third Prince nodded. "I’m no fool. I know who to befriend and who to avoid. But this Shen Bai... he has truly exceeded my expectations."
He ant every word. The abilities Shen Bai had displayed today were nothing short of jaw-dropping.
Fortunately, his royal upbringing allowed him to restrain his expression and maintain a calm facade.
"Let’s keep watching. Perhaps Shen Bai has more surprises in store for us," said Feng Zheng.
The Third Prince nodded and said no more, his attention returning to Shen Bai.
The area fell quiet once more as everyone, consciously or not, kept an eye on Shen Bai’s movents.
...
Shen Bai, of course, was unaware of what was happening outside.
He had now flown close to the group of Observatory mbers.
These particular Observatory mbers had been lucky enough to spawn close to one another after entering.
Instead of imdiately drawing their weapons on each other, they had a tacit understanding and sat down to talk.
Soon after, the small group had ford a simple alliance.
Even if their little group didn’t seem particularly sturdy, at least for the mont, they wouldn’t have to face a bitter struggle alone.
The group agreed to use their alliance to eliminate the other participants.
But before they had exchanged more than a few words, they saw a figure descending from the sky, a silhouette like a great bird of prey blotting out the sun.
BOOM!
A trendous crash resounded, kicking up a thick, obscuring cloud of yellow dust.
The Observatory mbers looked at each other, their eyes wide with shock.
