Chapter 469: Chapter 469: The Depth of Three Thousand Ruishui River! (2 more)

After passing through several narrow corridors, an open clearing appeared.

The clearing was roughly three hundred yards square, with a lake over a hundred yards wide at its center. Looking carefully, one could see above the lake hundreds of thin iron chains suspended a hundred meters up, spaced about three meters apart.

Since this place was specifically for promotion examinations, even the students of the Heavenly Position Academy rarely had access to it, naturally never discovering that there was such a large lake within the academy.

"Hehe, you little bunnies, your performance in the first test wasn’t bad!"

Leng Jianfeng leapt onto one of the iron chains with a graceful jump and stood steadily on it, a smug smile hanging on his face, chuckling, "The second test isn’t too difficult either, just walk across the chains to the other side of the lake to succeed."

"Psh! That’s too easy!"

Immediately, many people rubbed their hands together, eager to try.

Wang Yishan even scoffed dismissively, "It’s just walking on an iron chain bridge, Instructor Leng, isn’t this test a bit childish?"

"Oh?" Leng Jianfeng raised an eyebrow and nodded towards the iron chain beside him, "Wang Yishan, why don’t you try it first then."

"I’ll give it a try!" Wang Yishan put away the weapon in his hand very dramatically, executed his movement technique, and leaped onto the iron chain next to Leng Jianfeng.

As soon as he landed, Wang Yishan’s expression changed.

The iron chains above the lake were not only wobbling, but they were also slippery. Slipperiness was manageable, but there seemed to be something else odd about the lake.

Wang Yishan struggled to keep from falling off the chain and looked puzzledly at Leng Jianfeng, "What’s this situation! It feels like standing in a gravitational field ten times stronger!"

Leng Jianfeng stroked his bearded chin and laughed, "Ever heard of the Ruishui River?"

The crowd’s faces changed drastically, and a saying from the Xuanling Continent came to mind: "Three thousand depths of Ruishui River, not even a feather floats!"

If one were to accidentally fall into the Ruishui River, they could hardly expect to come out alive.

"Holy crap!"

Standing on the iron chain bridge, Wang Yishan hurried back to the shore, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said with lingering fears, "Instructor Leng, it’s just a test, do we need to be this life-threatening?"

"Hahaha!" Leng Jianfeng laughed loudly and after a while said, "If this entire lake were filled with Ruishui, I wouldn’t dare to stand on these chains, let alone the vice instructors."

Leng Jianfeng took a few steps on the iron chain with a flamboyant demeanor and said, "In this vast lake, there’s only one drop of Ruishui!"

So that was it!

Ling Feng nodded slightly, the legendary terrifying Ruishui diluted in such a large lake, naturally its danger was significantly reduced.

"Because there’s a drop of Ruishui in the lake, the gravity here is ten times higher than other places."

Leng Jianfeng stood on the iron chain, turned back to look at the Yellow Character Disciples from the East Courtyard, and continued, "Alright, let’s see how effective your usual gravity training has been. You have half an hour, and if you can’t make it across in that time, you’re considered to have failed the test."

Meanwhile, the instructors from other courts also informed their students of the rules, and the second test officially began.

Ling Feng concentrated and looked ahead, the iron chain was a hundred yards long, around three hundred meters. If it were placed on flat ground, even with ten times the normal gravity, it wouldn’t be too difficult for these students who had undergone gravity training.

But on these iron chains, it was a different story altogether.

"Alright, begin," Leng Jianfeng flickered from view, reaching the opposite shore in a few movements, and from afar he shouted, "See, it’s not that difficult!"

"Phooey!" Many people flipped Leng Jianfeng the bird behind his back, thinking to themselves, let’s see you cross so easily when you were at the Magnetic Condensation Realm!

"Big brother, this Iron Chain Bridge is quite challenging!" Ouyang Jing approached Ling Feng and spoke softly.

"Mm." Ling Feng nodded slightly and analyzed, "Ten times gravity, plus the chains are too loose, a width of a hundred zhang, but the chains are a hundred and thirty zhang long, walking on it will definitely be extremely shaky!"

"Moreover, the chains are wet and slippery, which adds to the difficulty!" Ouyang Jing added.

Wang Yishan, who had just experienced standing on the Iron Chain Bridge, spoke with lingering fear, "Not just that, the water of the Cold Lake seems to have some strange pulling force. As soon as I stood on it, my head started to feel dizzy, and I wanted to jump into the lake."

"Oh? It even has the ability to disturb the mind?" Ling Feng touched his nose, but he was somewhat intrigued by the challenge of the Iron Chain Bridge.

Meanwhile, Cheng Qi, the North Court Chief who had been profoundly defeated by Ling Feng and others, once again made a move.

This guy, eager to prove himself, had already leaped onto one of the chains while others were still observing.

It had to be said, although Cheng Qi was usually as arrogant as they come, he had the skills to back it up.

He landed on the chain, slightly shook a few times, but soon stabilized his stance. Then maintaining his balance, he started moving forward quite effortlessly.

However, when he reached halfway, he discerned that the Cold Lake below seemed to emit a bizarre force that disturbed his mind, causing his speed to suddenly slow down. Still, he steadied his posture and moved at a steady pace.

With Cheng Qi taking the lead, students from various academies also began their attempts, as they had only half an hour and could not afford any further delay.

Lee Bufan glanced back at Ling Feng with a hint of challenge in his eyes. Ling Feng raised his eyebrows and readily accepted the challenge.

The next moment, two figures soared out and directly jumped onto two chains at the edges.

In an instant, one white, one purple! The two figures, like electric shocks, shot out.

Ling Feng employed the Carefree Sword Step, while Lee Bufan used the Wind and Thunder Hundred Transformations he had acquired from the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower.

Although Wind and Thunder Hundred Transformations was not a movement technique, Wind and Thunder attributes were renowned for speed. With his full display of Wind and Thunder Hundred Transformations, his speed almost exceeded the limits of the Magnetic Condensation Realm.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two figures, one in front of the other, nearly in the blink of an eye, already reached the opposite bank, making it nearly impossible for ordinary people to discern who was faster.

However, Ling Feng knew that in terms of speed, he was still a step slower.

"Heaven...heavens!"

Students on the other shore were dumbfounded. This speed was even faster than Leng Jianfeng!

"Truly two freaks!"

Even the students of the East Courtyard felt a profound sense of helplessness. Being classmates with monstrosities like Ling Feng and Lee Bufan brought immense pressure.

This time, Jiang Xiaofan’s performance was somewhat disappointing. The guy was strong in brute strength and defense, but sadly, movement technique was his biggest weakness. He could only stand on the chain, moving at a snail’s pace.

"You’ve won." Ling Feng looked at Lee Bufan, smiled faintly, without much disappointment.

"Winning doesn’t mean much; you didn’t give it your all." Lee Bufan remained proud, standing with his hands behind his back, exuding an aura that kept others at a distance.

"And did you give it your all?" Ling Feng smiled lightly, "I look forward to after the holiday, your Wind and Thunder Hundred Transformations reaching Great Success!"

"Humph, don’t you slack off either. The moment you’re careless, I’ll leave you behind!" Lee Bufan said arrogantly.

"Hahaha, then let’s wait and see!" Ling Feng’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, "Don’t forget, our goal is to challenge the Royal Sword Team!"

Lee Bufan clenched his fists, making a sound like popping beans, his eyes equally flashing with a sharp determination, and he slowly uttered four words, "Royal Sword Team!"
