Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1055: Chapter 1056: The Speed of a Snail

As soon as day breaks, the young people preparing to take the Medicine Sect exam have already gathered on the mountain top platform.

Each of these youngsters is the elite from the major sects and families of China, and their attire is all international brands.

Thus, Lin Chen, wearing cheap clothing, stands out conspicuously in the crowd.

A young girl in white steps out from the crowd. Her face is delicate, wearing a white gauze dress, giving off an otherworldly feeling as if she has come from the Immortal Realm.

The girl looks at everyone and smiles faintly, ”Hello everyone, my name is Shu Yun, I’m a disciple of the Medicine Sect. I’ll lead you to the Medicine Sect this time, but along the way, you’ll have to pass layers of exams. Only those who pass will have the chance to officially become disciples of the Medicine Sect.”

Upon hearing Shu Yun’s words, a trace of solemnity appears in everyone’s eyes.

These talents carry the hope of their families. Once they join the Medicine Sect, their families will be sheltered by the sect and may even receive some benefits, allowing the family to rise quickly.

If they fail, it’s likely they will be replaced or succeeded by other families, making this test very nerve-wracking for everyone involved.

An Ningning looks tense, with her small fists clenched tightly.

Lin Chen smiles faintly, ”Don’t worry, it’s going to be fine.”

An Ningning nods, ”Mhm, you too, give it your best.”

Shu Yun looks at the crowd and then nods, ”Alright, everyone, follow me into the Medicine Sect, and good luck to you all.”

With that said, Shu Yun turns and heads down the mountain.

This section of the mountain road has stone steps, so it’s not too difficult to follow. The students chat in small groups as they descend the mountain.

A red-haired youth beside Lin Chen smiles warmly, ”Brother, my name is Hong Liang, what should I call you?”

”Lin Chen!” This youth appears to be straightforward and sincere, Lin Chen replies with a smile.

”You came to the Medicine Sect to catch a glimpse of the world’s number one beauty, the Medicine Sect’s senior sister Yu Feifei, didn’t you?” Hong Liang laughs.

Upon hearing Hong Liang’s words, An Ningning also slows down a bit, feeling inexplicably nervous.

”Oh, sort of,” Lin Chen responds noncommittally.

He had already seen Yu Feifei’s beauty, and Lin Chen hadn’t just seen her beauty, but also some things he shouldn’t have seen.

After hearing Lin Chen’s words, An Ningning couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed.

At this point, Yao Lei sidles over and whispers, ”Lin Chen, I advise you to stay away from Ningning, or don’t blame me for being rude.”

Lin Chen laughs softly, ”Rude? Alright. I’d love to see how you plan to be rude.”

”Fine, kid, you’re done for,” Yao Lei grits his teeth and says.

Watching Yao Lei leave with a face full of malice, Hong Liang whispers, ”How did you offend that guy? You must be careful, that guy is the type to bear grudges, be wary of trouble.”

”Don’t worry, if he doesn’t provoke me, it’s his luck; if he does, I’ll make him regret it,” Lin Chen says calmly.

”You’re way too arrogant, but I like it,” Hong Liang laughs.

Not long after, the mountain road suddenly becomes more difficult to traverse, the stone steps are gone and replaced by a rugged path.

There’s a saying, ”It’s easier to climb up a mountain than to descend.” This couldn’t be more true; the path is slippery, and people occasionally fall.

Small rocks occasionally slide down from above, making it very difficult to walk.

Unlike others who are stumbling, Shu Yun navigates the mountain path as if it were flat ground.

Many people fall far behind, and only a few can keep pace with her.

As the path grows steeper, Shu Yun’s speed only increases.

At this moment, An Ningning is already feeling a bit strained.

”Lin Chen, don’t worry about me, go on ahead,” An Ningning calls out to Lin Chen beside her.

She senses that Lin Chen hasn’t been using his full strength, just to wait for her.

”I promised I’d protect you,” Lin Chen smiles.

”Don’t worry, with my speed, passing this section isn’t a problem. I don’t want to hold you back because of me,” An Ningning stubbornly says.

Lin Chen glances at An Ningning, her eyes show a determined look.

Through these days of interaction, Lin Chen has realized that An Ningning is a very strong-willed girl. If he insists, it will hurt her pride.

”Then be careful.” Lin Chen nods and speeds up his pace.

Watching Lin Chen leap lightly like a gazelle among the rocks, An Ningning can’t help but sigh.

”This guy is so fast, he’s practically a prodigy.”

Shu Yun leaps swiftly among the rocks, hearing the noise behind her grow faint, a faint smile crosses her lips.

”Looks like those little ones have fallen far behind,” thinking this, Shu Yun stops and turns around.

But just as she turns, a figure collides with her.

”Bang!”

With a thud, Lin Chen’s body hits Shu Yun on her soft spot.

The sudden impact causes Shu Yun to slip, falling backward.

Shu Yun’s face turns pale with fright, knowing that falling backward in this rocky place is very dangerous.

Just as Shu Yun’s head is about to hit a rock, a large hand reaches out and lifts her by the waist.

Shu Yun had already closed her eyes in fright but feels herself being held up by a burly hand.

A warm aura spreads throughout her body. She opens her eyes and sees herself in the arms of a boy. The most frustrating part is this guy’s hand is placed on her chest.

Shu Yun blushes, ”You, what are you doing? Let go!”

Though he saved her, this girl shows no gratitude and acts like he was assaulting her, Lin Chen feels dissatisfied and immediately lets go.

”Bang!”

Shu Yun falls flat on her backside and grimaces in pain.

”You idiot, why did you let go like that?” Shu Yun grimaces and glares angrily at Lin Chen.

”You told me to let go!” Lin Chen looks innocent.

”I said let go, but I didn’t mean for you to drop me on the ground!” Shu Yun nearly goes mad with anger.

Standing up from the ground, Shu Yun angrily says, ”Don’t you have eyes? How come you crashed into me?”

”Sis, isn’t it you who suddenly stopped running?” Lin Chen looks aggrieved.

Though Shu Yun is angry, she is inwardly shocked.

The Qinggong she’d just used is an upper-tier cultivation technique, yet Lin Chen kept up with her pace—this guy is fast!

Shu Yun snorts coldly, stands up, and rushes forward again.

This time, she holds nothing back and accelerates to her utmost speed.

”Kid, let’s see how you keep up this time,” she thinks proudly while running.

”Sis, can’t you hurry up? Your speed is like a snail’s!” A teasing voice comes from behind.

”How is this possible!” Hearing the voice, Shu Yun is instantly dumbfounded.
