Chapter 338: Chapter 73: A Monster has Emerged Among Us – Part 2 Chapter 338: Chapter 73: A Monster has Emerged Among Us – Part 2 Just the number itself is enough to cause despair!

What exactly is this Heavenly Judge? What kind of organization is it?

“Let’s go back, back to Yuezhou.”

When Mo Yuantu said this, he emanated a sense of morose defeat, as if the sun were setting.

Having witnessed first-hand the stunning power displayed by the Heavenly Judge, Mo Yuantu was completely rid of the absurd idea of “killing all the Gold Rank assassins from this term”.

This, however, is merely the tip of the iceberg of the Heavenly Judge’s actual strength, or perhaps it isn’t even that.

After all, these were just the members selected for the biennial training. Below the Gold Rank assassins, there were others ready to take their place, and above them were those advancing towards the Jade Rank!

“Alright, let’s go back.”

Mo Yuanqing and the others, equally astonished at the potency of the Heavenly Judge, felt a surge of dissatisfaction: Why did we make this journey in the first place? Was it just for sightseeing?

We came to assassinate Gentle, but no attempt at assassination was made along the way. We really did just take a trip.

The only thing we accomplished was to inflate the prestige of others while depreciating our own. We might as well have completely abandoned any courage to confront the Heavenly Judge!

This is indeed… speechless.

The group from Supreme Mountain returned dispirited and crestfallen, there’s no need to elaborate further!

On the other hand, Feng Yin, still shrouded in thick fog, continued to press forward, seeming more spirited and light-footed with every step.

The blurred path under his feet, seemingly endless, was always obscured from his view. Despite the occasional uneven ground, it was nothing more than a minor obstacle for his lightness skill, posing no difficulty whatsoever.

In addition to others who were training, Feng Yin had an additional advantage. Even though he couldn’t see his hand in front of his face, he could still sense the tall, dense trees lining the path and occasionally felt a hint of moisture collecting.

Feng Yin calculated in his heart that he had already traveled at least a couple hundred li, causing him to have a bit of doubt.

After all, based on this distance, he should already be deep inside Wutong Mountain.

Suddenly, Feng Yin’s eyes brightened as a large open space appeared before him.

As far as the eye could see, there were already five to six hundred people either sitting or standing in the open space, each of them maintaining a safe distance from each other.

Some people wore masks, and some had disguised their appearances with most doing a rather superficial job of it. They probably just wanted to hide their identities so no one would recognize them, while more than 80% appeared as their originals.

Feng Yin couldn’t help but secretly criticize them.

In his two lives, he had never seen such blatantly shameless assassins. Don’t they even do the basic work of confidentiality as an assassin?!

All of them were… straightforward and upright.

Feng Yin, maintaining his usual low-key style, quietly walked into the crowd and chose a spot in the middle where he was a zhang away from the people on all sides.

This was a taboo environment where enemies surrounded from all sides.

His entry caused the energies of the four people around him to vibrate, but a new delicate balance was quickly formed.

This slight disturbance made those four people open their eyes in unison, giving Feng Yin a somewhat toothache-inducing look.

The people behind and to the sides of Feng Yin were alright with this, and they continued to close their eyes to cultivate and replenish themselves. However, the Gold Rank assassin in front of Feng Yin felt uncomfortable all over, as if he had a fishbone stuck in his throat.

After enduring for a moment, he could hold on no longer and involuntarily started to shift forward. As he took several steps, his original position became noticeably disturbed, and others followed suit…

When Feng Yin entered the crowd, his energy upset the balance, causing everyone nearby to slightly adjust their positions.

According to the saying from his previous life, this was the so-called domino effect.

All the assassins who had to move felt speechless.

They had never seen such a pot-stirrer before… If you were going to enter, why couldn’t you just pick a corner to sit in?

Why did you have to go to the dead center?

Didn’t you know everyone else here was on high alert?

Everyone was very cautious, even when making ordinary movements. Your abrupt entry into the center is not easy for others to accept, isn’t it?

Unknown to them, Feng Yin had already ranked these individuals in his mind based on this minor incident.

Those who moved quickly, with sharp reactions and precise adaptations, could naturally be considered as the best among them. A few individuals who were slow to react, chose the wrong direction, blindly avoided, or responded slowly… they could not be underestimated either, as they might just be feigning weakness, pretending to be a pig just to eat a tiger.

Many a time, concealing one’s talent didn’t necessarily work, but besmirching oneself might!

“It seems there aren’t many simpletons among those who can reach the Gold Rank.” Feng Yin sincerely sighed inwardly.

“Even though their cultivation levels are generally not very high, their individual combat training, their senses and reactions to danger are more than good. There aren’t many who achieve success by fluke.”

Feng Yin used his own cultivation level as a reference and concluded that he was currently at the peak of the Human-Level Fourth Grade and was among the top in the gathering. However, the grades of these Gold Rank assassins were still on the same level as him.

Basically, they all started from the peak of the Human-Level Second Grade, and reached Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth Grades, but none surpassed the Seventh Grade.

The highest level among those present was the early stage of the Sixth Grade, but there were only a few of those. Those who reached the high grade of the Fifth Grade also had a scant number.

“This should roughly be the standard cultivation level of the Gold Rank assassins.”
