Gate of God

Chapter 106: I Can Tell You

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

None of the examinees were willing to believe the scene in front of them. They didn’t understand how Fang Zhengzhi did it, but, reality was reality, it was simply unarguable.

Fang Zhengzhi did it, moreover, with unparalleled ease.

Hence, after confirming this, the gazes of all the examinees finally landed on Cai Yongfeng and the other four examinees. They all wished to see how this person chosen by Fang Zhengzhi would deal with this situation.

Walk in confidently like Fang Zhengzhi?

That was the most unwise move.

But what if the argument couldn’t be won? He would lose his face, and that was even worse than being eliminated from the combat examination. In the future, the nickname ”cowardly turtle” would likely stick to him.

Cai Yongfeng’s expression was very dark, so dark that water could drip out of it.

His hands tightened together into a fist, then relaxed, then very quickly, tightened again. He was in a huge dilemma. Because, even he didn’t know whether to enter.

Logic told him to let Fang Zhengzhi pass the first round, then, in the second round, think of another idea. However, as a talent who was number fifty-six on the Hidden Dragon Roll, he couldn’t afford to lose the face.

Just as Cai Yongfeng was deep in hesitation, Fang Zhengzhi made a move that caused everybody to almost kneel down on the ground.

Because, he had actually walked out of the rockfall matrix. As he walked out, Fang Zhengzhi lightly patted the dust on his body, then, leisurely walked towards Cai Yongfeng.

The examinees were all instantly shocked by Fang Zhengzhi’s actions once again.

What does he want to do?

”Young Master Cai, do you want me to tell you the secret of the rockfall matrix?” Fang Zhengzhi quickly walked to Cai Yongfeng’s side. As he spoke, he even blinked a few times at Cai Yongfeng.

All the examinees were completely bewildered. Tell Cai Yongfeng the secret of the rockfall matrix? Heavens… can he not bully people like that!

Cai Yongfeng at this moment felt as if he was sick.

He had already become so stunned by Fang Zhengzhi’s actions that he was completely unable to think. To be able to avoid being crushed by the rocks in the matrix, this had clearly proved that Fang Zhengzhi had solved the rules of the rockfall matrix.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t he keep the advantage and continue to taunt?

Or, directly and smoothly, pass the first round! At the very least, he shouldn’t be running out again and telling him the secret of the rockfall matrix?

”You… are you joking?” Cai Yongfeng really didn’t dare to believe Fang Zhengzhi’s words.

”I am very serious. Look… look at all those craters, did you see them? Did you realise that every time the rocks fell, they would disappear, however, the craters wouldn’t instantly disappear…” As Fang Zhengzhi spoke, he even gestured with his hands.

Cai Yongfeng didn’t believe that Fang Zhengzhi would really tell him the secret of the rockfall matrix, but he still instinctively followed Fang Zhengzhi’s reminder and noticed the craters on the ground.

Very quickly, his eyes lit up. Because, he realised the law within this. As Fang Zhengzhi had said, the rocks in the rockfall matrix would disappear immediately after falling, however, the craters wouldn’t disappear.

And these craters, had left a huge crater map on the ground.

This was a hint!

A hint purposely left in the pocket dimension!

Based on the position of these craters, then inferring the law of the falling rocks wasn’t difficult to Cai Yongfeng. To be able to make it into the first-class roll of the capital examination, how could he not be familiar with matrixes and formations?

”Why are you telling me these?” After confirming that Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t tricking him, he still couldn’t guess Fang Zhengzhi’s intentions.

”There’s no reason, I initially thought that you could see it, but looks like I overestimated you. So, in order to remind you, I specially demonstrated it out for you, but you still didn’t manage to solve it. Hence, I can only tell you!” Fang Zhengzhi twitched his mouth towards Cai Yongfeng, as if speaking about something very normal.

However, Cai Yongfeng felt a sense of shame that he had never felt before.

”I am asking you, why are you telling me this?” Cai Yongfeng felt that Fang Zhengzhi’s words were too vicious. What was ”thinking that I can see it”?

He was filled with hatred and regret. His attention had all along been fixated on the falling rocks and Fang Zhengzhi, and simply didn’t notice the craters on the ground of the rockfall matrix.

”Didn’t you already say? I had already chosen to fight you. The location… is within the rockfall matrix, yet you didn’t dare to come. Hence, I can only tell you the secret of the rockfall matrix!” Fang Zhengzhi smiled lightly, then, beckoned his finger towards Cai Yongfeng and turned around to walk towards the rockfall matrix.

”But you didn’t dare to come!”

Cai Yongfeng felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his eyes almost narrowed into a slit. His hands instantly tightened into a fist. He didn’t know why would Fang Zhengzhi tell him the law of the rockfall matrix.

But, there was one thing he was clear about. Now, he didn’t have any escape route. If he hesitated at this time, he would never have the face to live in society anymore.

”Let’s go!” Cai Yongfeng bellowed.

”But… I haven’t understood!” A youth behind Cai Yongfeng was somewhat hesitant.

”After entering, just follow my footsteps!” Cai Yongfeng said coldly. He naturally understood that even though there were hints, not everybody could infer the rules of the rockfall matrix.

”Alright!” When the four youths behind heard this, they instantly nodded.

…

All the examinees stared at Fang Zhengzhi with an expression of shock as he re-entered the rockfall matrix, as well as Cai Yongfeng and the other four. They all bore the same question in their hearts.

Why did Fang Zhengzhi choose the rockfall matrix as the battle arena?

Furthermore, when he was in a position of advantage, why did he tell the law of the rockfall matrix to Cai Yongfeng?

These two things, no matter how people looked at them, seemed very conflicting.

As the crowd was lost in their confusion, clouds of dust rose from within the rockfall matrix.

Because, as Fang Zhengzhi, Cai Yongfeng and the rest entered, one by one, huge rocks fell from the skies onto the ground, then, smashing a huge crater in the ground.

”Boom boom boom…”

A deafening sound resounded.

Everybody were anxiously staring at this scene. Each of them wished to see whether Cai Yongfeng really was able to master the rockfall matrix like Fang Zhengzhi did.

Very quickly, the cloud of dust dispersed.

Fang Zhengzhi stood casually at the heart of the rockfall matrix, and opposite him, wearing a purple armour. Cai Yongfeng’s expression was just as calm.

Even though the four youths standing behind Cai Yongfeng looked white and pale, but, nobody was crushed by the rock. From this point, it could be seen that Cai Yongfeng’s directions weren’t wrong.

”Cai Yongfeng really mastered the laws of the rockfall matrix?!”

”I never thought that Fang Zhengzhi would really be dumb enough to tell the law to Cai Yongfeng!”

”Isn’t this too dumb? Such a move is simply reaping the consequences of his actions, now, he really has to fight five people by himself!”

When the crowd had seen clearly the people within the rockfall matrix, they somewhat lamented Fang Zhengzhi’s naivety.

At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi instead smiled towards Cai Yongfeng.

”Have you mastered it? Do you wish to try further?”

”Ha ha ha… Fang Zhengzhi, should I say that you are too naive, or say you are too stupid!” After Cai Yongfeng confirmed that the laws of the rockfall matrix were correct, he regained his confidence once again.

”Looks like now, I can more or less tell you why I must bring you into the rockfall matrix.” Fang Zhengzhi maintained the faint smile on his face.

”Why?” Cai Yongfeng was taken aback. Looking at Fang Zhengzhi’s faint smile, he suddenly felt that something was about to go wrong.
