Chapter 133: Cautious and Low-key
The handsome uncle, seeing that everyone was seated, explained the rules again.
Chang Qing took advantage of this opportunity and discovered that the talented disciples from the three major sects seemed to be casting their gazes towards the girl intentionally or unintentionally, with expressions of faint fear on their faces.
"It seems that the girl is quite powerful. She can make these people so afraid!" Chang Qing thought.
Then he shrugged again: "What does it have to do with me..."
He only regretted not bringing a handful of melon seeds. The handsome uncle had cheated him so many times, and now he should be made to feel uncomfortable. Changqing was just watching the fun and making trouble.
After the handsome uncle explained the rules and precautions, he announced the start of the competition.
Thousands of figures flew up in an instant and climbed up along the bottom stairs.
But as soon as they stepped onto the stairs, many people paused, as if there was some resistance ahead, or as if they had entered a quagmire, and moved slowly.
But several figures among them were particularly eye-catching. They climbed upwards quickly without any hindrance.
It was Shen Yu, Wei Yan, Zhong Baixuan, the woman in red, Yun Qinghan and others.
The most unexpected thing was that the red-dressed lady’s climbing speed was even faster than everyone else’s. Every time she passed a talented disciple, she would say:
"Is this the so-called sect genius? Nothing more than that."
Above, the old man in red also stroked his beard and was very satisfied with the woman's performance.
The faces of the other three sect leaders became even darker!
The handsome uncle looked a little anxious. This year, another aristocratic family had emerged in the battle for the quota, making the already scarce quota even more tense. This was not the most important thing. The main thing was to look at the woman's cultivation. I'm afraid she would be at the bottom again this year.
I came last in a competition organized by the organizer, which was so embarrassing.
"It would be great if I could get first place. Alas! That girl is actually at the sixth level of Pi Hai. I wonder how this old ghost Xuan Huo trained her!" The handsome uncle glanced at the patriarch of the Xuan Huo family beside him and thought.
When his eyes inadvertently glanced down, he saw a sleepy figure and instantly had an idea.
"How could you forget about this guy!" The handsome uncle was really sleepy, so he asked for a pillow.
Chang Qing was confused when he heard a voice in his mind: "Boy, go up and get first place, I promise you one thing!"
The handsome uncle's voice suddenly made Changqing, who was already drowsy, perk up.
Changqing was unsure, wondering what conspiracy this scumbag sect leader was up to. He looked up and saw the sect leader's anxious eyes. Only then did Changqing accept it a little.
"Really? Anything is fine?" Chang Qing still asked in a skeptical tone.
He was just thinking about how to get a feather of the guardian beast, and now this opportunity has come! It is not impossible to ask the sect master to ask for one through his friendship with the blue bird.
"As long as it doesn't violate the principles, I can ask for anything within my ability." The handsome uncle agreed.
"Okay, it's a deal!" Chang Qing looked at the stairs and was about to leave, but then stopped.
The handsome uncle asked again: "Why did you stop again?"
Chang Qing smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, you know I don't really want to show my face, and the mask I use to cover my face is not a high-level magic weapon, so it can't stop the other masters from spying on me."
"You kid really never suffer any loss!!" The handsome uncle gritted his teeth, and a ray of light quickly came in front of Changqing.
Because these sect leaders were watching the chase on the steps and did not notice this place.
Changqing caught the light spot, and it turned into a bright silver mask that could cover his face. The mask was engraved with flying feathers and dotted with cloud-patterned gems. There were many advanced formations inside, which protected and connected each other, with extraordinary effects.
"What a good stuff!" Chang Qing touched the mask in his hand and could feel that in addition to concealing his true face, it also had many other effects.
"Go quickly." The handsome uncle urged.
"okay!"
Chang Qing responded, put on the mask, took off his earrings, put them in his arms, checked again, and after finding that there was nothing that could reveal his identity, he no longer hid his cultivation, and in a flash, he arrived in front of the first step.
The handsome uncle watched Chang Qing checking him over and over again, and couldn't help but twitch his lips and said, "This kid is always so cautious and low-key!"
Changqing's appearance did not attract much attention.
Listening to the heavy breathing and footsteps of the people on the stairs, Changqing felt a little curious.
Changqing exhaled and stepped lightly on the first step.
"Hmm?" Chang Qing only felt a faint pressure trying to push him off the stairs.
Fortunately, it did not restrict his spiritual power, physical energy and blood, etc., which gave Changqing some confidence.
"Does the pressure get stronger the higher you go?" Chang Qing murmured.
Then he grinned: "Since you want to compete for the first place, I guess you handsome uncle wants to save some face, so... show your fangs a little bit!"
Changqing's figure turned into a green light and climbed upwards quickly, as if he felt no pressure.
In the blink of an eye, Changqing's figure quickly surpassed most of the people.
"What a strong wind~" someone said breathlessly.
"I just saw a green mouse flash by. Are you dazzled?"
"It shouldn't be, I seem to have seen it too," someone wiped his sweat.
"What a genius! With such speed, who is this genius?"
"Hurry up, or you won't be able to catch up with the first 500."
Changqing's speed increased very quickly, and soon he reached nearly a thousand steps. There were no more than a hundred people who came here, all of them had spiritual light around them, and they tried their best to resist.
He discovered that the pressure at each level became stronger. When it reached thousands of levels, it was already dozens of times stronger than the initial level. His steps also began to slow down, but the speed did not slow down much.
The green light transformed by Changqing also attracted everyone's attention.
"Who is that? He's so fast!" a disciple asked
"I don't know, he was wearing the clothes of the Yuling Sect."
"When did the Yuling Sect gain another genius?"
"He was wearing a mask, so I couldn't see his face clearly..." A disciple of Yuling carefully identified him, but found nothing.
“With this speed, she might be able to overtake the woman in first place.” A disciple of Yuling speculated.
"Tsk! You're dreaming. That's because the young lady hasn't exerted her strength yet." The disciple of the Xuanhuo family in the back said with disdain.
"Based on this speed, he must have used all his strength. I'm afraid he will be exhausted in no time. It's hard to say whether he can reach the top. Is the hope of your Yuling Sect pinned on this secretive disciple?"
Another disciple of the Xuanhuo family made sarcastic remarks.
"No wonder the number of people in Yuling counts down every year. There is no one in Yuling anymore~" the disciples of Xuanhuo family started to make a fuss.
"You are so awesome, why don't you all come? From the tone of your voice, it seems like you are even more awesome than the second-rate sects. So why are you still participating? Can't you just organize one yourself?!"
A familiar-looking fat boy among Yuling's disciples said.
"Yeah, why did you come to participate? Are you scared by being beaten by other families and run away in shame?" The disciple of Yuling Sect fought back.
"Hmph, it's just a momentary argument. I won't bother with you. The outcome will be clear in a moment." The disciple of the Xuanhuo family snorted coldly and turned away.
The several clan leaders and family heads above all noticed Chang Qing climbing up quickly.
The old man in red said: "This disciple is not bad, but his strength is still far behind Wan He."
"Even I can't see through this mask." Bai Shan said after a moment of hesitation.
"Master Ji wrapped this disciple so tightly, is there something he is hiding?" Bai Shan asked.
"Nothing, this kid just doesn't like to be in the spotlight."
What the handsome uncle said was very simple and it was the truth, but it did not make sense to the three sect leaders. The reason was too perfunctory, and the more he explained, the more it seemed like he was hiding something.
