Chapter 61 – Letting loose his hair!

Unfortunately, as evening pa.s.sed, Wu La and Bai Ling’s determination could not last, as their names turned grey like the moon slowly appearing in the skies.

At practically the same time, two black smokes flew towards the plaza before dispersing, revealing two pale faced girls.

Bai Ling was very calm, she had already tried her best, honestly speaking, after being unable to find Su Ming’s name in this test, he had already lost her compet.i.tive spirit. After she had come back, she walked amid the onlookers stares back towards her tribe, not uttering a single word. Sitting cross-legged behind that old lady, she gazed at the name Mo Su on the statue nearby, biting her lips as she remained in thought.

The old lady by her side seemed to say something to her, but she turned a deaf-ear to it, not bothering to reply.

Compared to the calm Bai Ling, Wu La was very unresigned, slowly walking back towards the Wu Shan Tribe’s area, where the Marksman was waiting for her with a smile.

“Wu La, you already did well, the first time coming to the test and you already managed to get into the top seventy, when you go back, if you train some more, the next time you stand a good chance getting into the top fifty.”

Wu La lightly nodded her head, although she was unresigned, in her heart existed a shred of pride, she had already felt that she did decently, as the marksman said, getting such a result for her first time is already something to be proud of.

Lifting her head, Wu La looked at the rankings on the statue, looking at the ranked forty-ninth Bei Ling and the ranked fifty-third Lei Chen, then looking towards Mo Su, as she saw the words Mo Su, her eyes let out a certain glint.

“Just who will he be……”

Time pa.s.ses sometimes slowly, however during today’s intense test, it had quickly elapsed without people’s notice, in the blink of an eye the moon in the skies was no longer a small fragment, it is already brightly hanging in the night sky.

It was not far from midnight and the pressure from the mountain had gradually strengthened once more.

Lei Chen had given up after finally reaching the fifty-second position, appearing on the plaza in a wisp, his expression was not gloomy as he walked out with his usual smile, with many people waving at him. Apparently he had managed to get to know quite some people during his days here at the Feng Zhen Tribe.

As he reached the Wu Shan Tribe group, Bei Ling and Si Kong successively gave up, appearing in a black wisp in the plaza. Bei Ling had his usual cold expression, he was ranked forty-ninth, he had obtained his goal of reaching the top fifty.

This time his entering of the test was different from the past, previously he had managed this feat with Wu Sen’s a.s.sistance, however this year, he had done it on his own merit.

Bei Ling believed that if not for him sacrificing much of his Lifeblood, he would probably have obtained an even higher ranking. Filled with pride, he walked back towards the Wu Shan Tribe.

“Wu La, you did well, although it was not the top fifty. This ranking can already be considered decent, but don’t get too conceited yet, there are still two more tests.” Bei Ling glanced at Wu La as he gently spoke.

Wu La hurriedly stood up and nodded, her gaze towards Bei Ling emanated some respect, after personally experiencing the test, she knew just how hard it was to enter the top fifty.

“As for you…… Lei Chen, you should be able to enter the top fifty, stopping at the fifty-second rank, never mind, during the second test, you have to work hard, the Wu Shan Tribe only has the three of us competing, so we have to give it our all!” Bei Ling glanced at Lei Chen as he calmly spoke.

Lei Chen lowered his head without replying.

In the distance, Si Kong had returned with a face full of frustration, he had finally ended up in the fiftieth rank, dejectedly he walked back towards his tribe. Seeing the silent Bai Ling, he had wanted to speak but seeing her cold gaze, he immediately swallowed his words.

As time pa.s.sed, even the people in the top fifty started to slowly give up, as the names slowly greyed out, and people slowly returned back to the plaza, the people gradually got more excited.

Those in the top fifty who had returned had all came back with a satisfied expression, there were also many people who had went up to them to offer their congratulations generating bursts of laughter.

Although there were people who gave up, there were also those who persevered on, such as Chen Chong who was crazily gritting his teeth, his body drenched with sweat, the flesh on his face quivering as he continued his advance.

He was breathless, his eyes surrounded by countless stars, he was tired on the verge of collapsing, yet he was managing to curse non-stop.

“f.u.c.k him, is he trying to tire me to death!!!”

“Five hundred and thirty-seven…… you blasted idiot Bi Su…… five hundred and thirty-eight…… you blasted idiot Bi Su…… five hundred and thirty-nine…… you d.a.m.nable Bi Su, I will remember you, this is not over!!” Chen Chong wiped his sweat as his expression grew more frenzied, his cursing getting louder and louder.

“Are you just insane, why do you have to compete against me like this, f.u.c.k you Bi Su, if I really die here, I will haunt you in even in the afterlife!! Five hundred and thirty-eight……Eh, no it was five hundred and thirty-nine.”

Chen Chong face was bitter, as he panted loudly, climbing on on all fours, facing the increasingly growing pressure, he continued to climb, his heart was beating crazily, as if it was going to explode, his sweat was unstopping, all the steps behind him were covered in sweat.

“Ah I am so tired, you f.u.c.ker must be trying to kill me!! Ah I have sweat so much, I must have lost some weight, I definitely lost weight……” Chen Chong continued taking deep pants as he continued climbing, carefully listening before smiling widely.

“I will tire you out, you dare compete with me, I will tire you out you d.a.m.nable fool Bi Su!!” With his excellent hearing, he could hear panting not any weaker than his own coming from a nearby path.

Bi Su was currently equally tired, sweat falling non-stop, his eyes were burning with determination, after competing with Chen Chong for so long he grit his teeth as he climbed onward in a frenzy, he was so drained that with each breath he could feel a sharp pain in his chest, yet even so he was unwilling to give up.

“Chen Chong, I must Surpa.s.s you!! Other than Ye w.a.n.g, I will be the strongest in our generation!”

However, the higher one got, especially past the five hundredth step, the kind of pressure they have to face which was compounded at night had already reached a terrifying level. For Chen Chong and Bi Su, they could still barely manage in the day, but as midnight approached advancing became impossibly difficult.

Other than these two people, the other partic.i.p.ants who were still persevering were in a similar state, especially Wu Sen, each step was arduously painful, he did not want to be overtaken further, even if he could not get into the top ten, his current twentieth position must be maintained.

As midnight approached, the pressure coming from the mountain was reaching its peak, the people there were starting to stop, as per everyone’s expectations, tomorrow morning would probably be the final most intense compet.i.tion.

The instant midnight reached, Chen Chong’s body trembled, clearly feeling that the pressure coming from the mountain peak had reached a terrifying level.

“Five hundred and forty-seven…… five hundred…… f.u.c.k this, I don’t want to compete anymore!! Bi Su since you want second place so badly, I will give it to you! If I continue like this I will probably die here, ah my precious body……” Chen Chong sat there as he shouted towards his surroundings.

(TLN: Just want to mention again that anytime Chen Chong speaks, he uses 老子 as I, which is like a haughty way of saying it, lit. Your father.)

“Third is third, it is still fine, as long as I am in the top three, I won’t lose any face! That Wu Sen is so far behind anyway. Bi Su just keep on walking if you can, just keep walking till you roll over and die!!

f.u.c.k, if I had Mo Su’s ability to breakthrough like this, I would definitely…… hey…… ah!!!” Chen Chong breathed heavily as he fanned himself with his hand, as his body suddenly straightened, carefully listening, his expression became filled with shock.

Bi Su looked at the ranking tablet, seeing that Chen Chong stopped moving, he smiled as his eyes became filled with ruthlessness.

“Other than Ye w.a.n.g, I am the strongest!” As the furiously panted, he grit his teeth and walked a few more steps, only after reaching the five hundredth and fifty third step did he stop, just as he was happily celebrating, he saw that the ranked twenty-first Mo Su started to move once more.

The other person who noticed this at the same time was Wu Sen who was still at the twentieth position. Gradually everyone else other than Ye w.a.n.g had noticed that, that Mo Su had started moving again!!

At the same time, the crowd outside transformed into a blazing storm!!

Everyone on the plaza, the Wu Shan Tribe’s old lady, the various leaders of the tribes, and even the Hei Shan Tribe Patriarch who had never looked, all started to look.

The countless gazes, Lei Chen, Wu La, Bai Ling, Si Kong, Bei Ling, and those who had all given up the test had practically stopped breathing as they all stared at the same name on the nine statues.

Grandpa Mo Sang’s eyes were shining as he looked intently at the rankings on the statues, by his side Jing Nan’s expression was no longer indifferent, as he looked with constricted pupils.

Su Ming had moved once more!!

In the night that belonged to him, bathed in the moonlight, he slowly stood up, the blood veins in his body had come under his control, excluding the first fifteen, they all started to fade.

After lifting his head to gaze at the moon, the image of a red moon slowly appeared in his eyes, his hair tied by a straw rope had started to sway in this windless night. Su Ming took a deep breath as he untied his hair, letting his hair loose, lifting his right foot, he stepped towards the three hundred and seventy-second step.

The moment his feet reached the ground, all his blood veins once more appeared on his body, just like the first time, he had unleashed his greatest speed once more!!

A crimson light exploded as Su Ming dashed forward like a streak of blood.

Three hundred and seventy-two steps, three hundred and ninety-three steps, four hundred and twenty-four steps, four hundred and forty-eight steps, four hundred and seventy-one steps……

In an extremely fast speed, under the moonlight, he dashed forth like a storm. Resulting in all the people on the mountain or the people in the plaza who noticed this fall into silence.
