"Today’s second trial is a test of cloud magic," Zuo Zizhi’s voice echoed.
"With the four boundary markers of the eastern suburbs as the limit, Mr. Lu will cast a cloud spell to cover the eastern suburbs."
"Participants must rise with the clouds. Anyone whose cloud height is below one hundred ters will be considered a failure."
"Participants must only use cloud magic to compete. Using other spells to attack others will result in military punishnt."
"Those whose clouds dissipate will fail."
"Those who faint due to lack of primordial energy will fail."
"Those who are squeezed out of the boundary will fail."
Once Zuo Zizhi recited the rules for the second trial, the more than nine hundred participants below imdiately showed varied expressions.
So were adept at cloud magic, while others were not.
Those confident in their cloud magic were smug.
Those worried about not making it hung their heads in despair.
But no one questioned this thod of testing.
No matter your primary focus as a Military Minister of Agriculture Officer,
cloud magic was fundantal to the Four Heavenly Ti Techniques and also the basic foundation.
An officer might not master the spells of the Earth Advantage Sect or the Self Sect, but they could not be ignorant of the Heavenly Ti Sect’s spells because the Heavenly Ti Sect was now mainstream.
The Four Heavenly Ti Techniques were the foundation of the mainstream.
"The first trial eliminated ninety percent; I wonder how many will be eliminated in this round," Zhao Xing was eager, "but I’m confident in my cloud magic."
Although the Swallowing Cloud Skill was only at the Eighth Transition, this spell was the strongest among cloud magics, undeniably!
Even at the Eighth Transition, Zhao Xing didn’t fear other interdiate-level cloud spells at the perfection level.
When Zuo Zizhi finished reciting the rules for the first ti, the remaining participants began to disperse, finding positions and striving not to crowd together.
After all, their main opponent was Lu Bang.
Being able to maintain the cloud under Lu Bang’s suppression was sufficient.
There was no need to have conflicts with others.
The eastern suburbs of Yang City were sizable. With more than nine hundred people, if they compressed their zones while controlling clouds, everyone could have their own sky.
Zhao Xing also glanced around and distanced himself from others.
While Zuo Zizhi recited the rules for the second ti, the participants had almost found their ideal positions.
However, Zhao Xing noticed a familiar figure approaching.
Li Feng.
No matter where Zhao Xing went, Li Feng followed.
Keeping a constant fifty-ter distance.
For casting cloud magic, a fifty-ter gap was already tight, even dangerous.
"It seems there won’t be an easy resolution," Zhao Xing thought, seeing Li Feng’s gaze, knowing the guy was holding a grudge.
"Run if you want, the eastern suburbs are only so big, where could you possibly go?" Li Feng’s eyes were playful.
"Are you so sure you can outmatch in cloud magic?" Zhao Xing responded, "Here’s so advice: now is not the ti."
"Afraid?" Li Feng snorted, "I’ve found out; you’re Zhao Xing of the Divine Might Army. If you’re scared, just roll out of the exam area yourself!"
His voice was loud, and since the exam had yet to start, Li Feng used wind transmission to project his voice.
Many people heard Li Feng’s voice and witnessed the confrontation between him and Zhao Xing.
"Sothing to watch."
"That’s Li Feng. Who’s the other guy?"
"According to Li Feng, so Zhao Xing from the Divine Might Army."
"Are there other experts in the Divine Might Army? Isn’t there only Han Bing? Why is Li Feng picking a fight with an unknown?"
"After being here for a month, so friction is normal."
"Li Feng ranked sixth in the Tiger Flood Dragon Army selection. Zhao Xing from the Divine Might Army, I haven’t heard much about him."
"I recall Zhao Xing from the Divine Might Army ranked twenty-ninth during registration."
"Interesting."
Li Feng’s loudness drew the attention of many.
That was exactly what he wanted.
He wanted to force Zhao Xing into a confrontation.
Otherwise, having to chase him around later would inevitably lead to interference from others.
"Afraid?" Zhao Xing sneered, "Fine, I’ll give you a chance for revenge! Whoever runs is a coward!"
ntioning the Divine Might Army made it no longer a personal matter. If Zhao Xing chickened out, not only would others look down on him, but so would his fellow soldiers.
Li Feng indeed cornered Zhao Xing into a battle. But Zhao Xing was rely reluctant, not afraid.
If avoidance was impossible, then fight!
"Fine!" Li Feng’s eyes sparkled, "Whoever runs is a coward!"
Seeing the intense atmosphere, people nearby retreated so to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
Han Bing thought for a mont and stood not far behind Zhao Xing.
He didn’t plan to interfere but was there in case Li Feng went too far.
On a hillside, Zhuo Li from the Fierce Sun Army also noticed the confrontation between Zhao Xing and Li Feng. "It’s him; I saw him in Dayuan Prefecture."
"Divine Might Army’s Zhao Xing? Didn’t expect he ranked twenty-ninth during registration."
Zhuo Li quietly rembered the na.
Due to Li Feng’s antics,
the previously low-profile and anonymous Zhao Xing from the Divine Might Army beca known to many.
.......
After Zuo Zizhi repeated the rules for the third ti, the second trial officially began.
The cloudless sky instantaneously birthed a dark golden cloud centered on the flying boat, swiftly expanding outward.
The cloud layer suspended at a thousand ters, its surface impeccably smooth, like a piece of pressed paper.
Everyone felt a tightness in their chests upon seeing it.
Such a perfectly smooth cloud brought a sense of suffocation, as if an iron plate hovering in the sky was about to fall at any mont.
"Move the clouds!"
"Four Seas Flowing Cloud!"
"Seven Star Cloud Formation!"
"Blood Shadows!"
"..."
At the mont the trial began, everyone hastily cast their learned cloud spells, rising with the clouds.
