I Break through Crazily

”Everyone was scattered to different locations in the Little Extreme Sacred Land. I’ve already contacted a few of them through a special method, and we can meet up at any time,” Xiaofu replied.

”Good.” Hex Anmin nodded and asked, ”Has everyone put on their Spirit-Repelling Pine?”

”I’ve already sent out the notice. They should all be wearing them by now,” Xiaofu replied.

”Mm. We can’t let our guard down. Everything we do in the Little Extreme Sacred Land can be transmitted to the West Mansion via some Secret Technique. Only by wearing the Spirit-Repelling Pine can we prevent them from seeing us or knowing what we’re doing.”

Hex Anmin said gravely, ”Until we find the Saint Spirit Blood, our activities absolutely must not be discovered by the West Mansion.”

”Yes, I will tell everyone to be careful,” Xiaofu said respectfully.

”Oh, right!” Hex Anmin suddenly remembered something and added, ”If you find examinee 59416, you must relay the information to me immediately. I’ll deal with him! We absolutely cannot let him jeopardize our mission!”

”Yes!” Xiaofu replied.

The two conspired for a moment longer before heading off in separate directions.

...

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Somewhere in the Little Extreme Sacred Land, a young man with an aura as sharp as a blade was locked in a fierce battle with a Level 4 Demon Beast. Rubble flew through the air as the clash of immense Power sent rumbles echoing through the area.

A few other examinees stood to the side, cheering him on with fawning expressions.

After a dozen or so exchanges with the Level 4 Demon Beast, the sharp-eyed young man gritted his teeth. The Longsword in his hand unleashed a streak of light that slashed toward the beast.

The streak of light struck the Demon Beast, instantly cleaving it in two.

After killing the Level 4 Demon Beast, the young man stood his ground, facing the wind with a heroic and dashing air. The Longsword in his hand was stained with the fresh, red blood of the beast. He looked like a young general returning from a victorious battle, which only added to his imposing presence.

That’s right. This was none other than Yuh Jili, the only young genius besides Tang Yi in this year’s examination to have made it onto the Outer Mansion’s rankings!

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!

Seeing Yuh Jili so easily slay a Level 4 Demon Beast, the few examinees watching from the sidelines began to applaud vigorously. One of them said to Yuh Jili, ”Jili, you’re truly worthy of your spot on the Outer Mansion’s rankings! Your Power is incredible. It would take several of us to handle a Level 4 Demon Beast, yet you killed it all by yourself. Amazing, simply amazing.”

”With Jili’s Power, he should have no problem taking first place in this year’s House Entrance Examination, right? Other than Jili, I really can’t think of anyone else?” Examinee A also stepped forward and said.

”But what about that examinee ranked second? His Power shouldn’t be underestimated.” Seeing Examinee A brown-nosing and praising Yuh Jili to the heavens, Examinee B frowned and interjected.

”You guys have just been fooled by the West Mansion’s little tricks. Who knows if examinee 59416’s score is even real? Maybe the West Mansion just cooked up some fake data to motivate the rest of us to train harder,” Examinee A said dismissively.

”The West Mansion cooked up fake data? But I heard... someone actually fought him and lost. That proves he’s really powerful, so the data can’t be fake,” Examinee B continued to argue.

”Maybe it was just a West Mansion Disciple in disguise,” Examinee A said, glaring at Examinee B. ’I’m trying to suck up over here,’ he thought, ’what the hell is it to you? Why do you always have to butt in and cause trouble?’

”How could a West Mansion Disciple be in disguise? Every disciple has their own unique identification. When they enter the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall, their real identity is displayed, not some temporary number. So it’s impossible for a West Mansion Disciple to pose as an examinee.” Examinee B seemed quite familiar with the West Mansion’s rules, refuting the claim with solid logic.

”You!”

Examinee A pointed at Examinee B, rendered speechless by the argument and fuming internally.

”What about me? I’m just speaking the truth. Although Jili’s Talent is extraordinary and his Power is superb, he’s still a far cry from examinee 59416. He needs to work harder.” Examinee B continued, completely oblivious to the dark expression that had crept onto Yuh Jili’s face.

Metaphorically speaking, if Yuh Jili were an Emperor, then Examinee A would be his favored court eunuch—the kind of person who would surely win his grace. Examinee B, on the other hand, was the self-righteous, big-mouthed official.

And it was often that kind of person who was the first to be executed.

Yuh Jili was indeed extremely displeased by Examinee B’s words. Though he wouldn’t execute him like an Emperor, he had already mentally cast him out of his inner circle, creating a significant distance between them.

”I don’t care if that examinee’s score is True or not, or if he even exists. As long as he’s in this Little Extreme Sacred Land, I will defeat him. I’ll make him understand who the real number one examinee in this House Entrance Examination is!” Yuh Jili declared coldly.

”Uh...”

At his words, Examinee B instantly felt Yuh Jili’s icy gaze upon him, along with the angry glares from everyone else. He was clearly not welcome.

Only then did he realize he had said too much.

Seeing their cold expressions, he knew there was no longer a place for him in this small group. In the end, with no other choice, Examinee B could only slink away in disgrace.

...

After killing his first Level 4 Demon Beast, Tang Yi quickly picked a direction and started moving. Upon entering the Little Extreme Sacred Land, everyone had been randomly teleported to different locations, so no one was together.

Therefore, Tang Yi had to find the examinees from the North District quickly. Otherwise, they would be in grave danger. If there were heavy casualties, he wouldn’t be able to complete his system mission.

Then there were Tang Piaomiao, Tang Shu, Tang Baijie, and Mu Xianling. These were his closest friends, and Tang Yi couldn’t bear the thought of anything happening to them.

Tang Yi activated his Formless Divine Shadow Step and began to weave rapidly through the forest. Whenever he encountered a Level 4 Demon Beast, he would kill it with a single palm strike, collect its Demon Beast Crystal, and continue on his way. He wasted no time, moving swiftly through the forests of the Little Extreme Sacred Land.

Although Tang Yi could fly, and at great Speed, the forest was simply too dense. He wouldn’t be able to see anything from the air. It was more practical to search on the ground, so he chose not to fly.

The Little Extreme Sacred Land was simply enormous. Even with nearly ten thousand examinees this year, that number was but a drop in the ocean in this vast place. Finding anyone here would be no easy task.

After wandering through the forest for some time and killing several Level 4 Demon Beasts, Tang Yi finally encountered other examinees. However, they weren’t from the North District...

He had just reached the top of a large tree. Looking down, he saw a group of examinees below, fiercely battling a Demon Beast that stood three or four meters tall.
