Dragon Martial Sovereign-Chapter 42 Genius? More like a Demon!
Chapter 42: Chapter 42 Genius? More like a Demon!
"Yeah? Such a loser actually wants to compete with Brother Cheng for a woman? He’s really overestimating himself!"
"Brother Cheng, rest assured, that piece of trash doesn’t even need Brother Cheng to take action. If there’s a chance, I will directly slay him."
Many newly recruited Outer Court disciples were here, singing Cheng Lin’s praises.
After hearing these flatterings, Cheng Lin couldn’t help but become even more smug, thinking to himself, "Yeah, such a loser. Why should I bother with him? Heh, just trash. I can annihilate him in minutes."
While Cheng Lin was feeling unbearably pleased with himself, suddenly a voice said, "Look, the light on the second floor of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda has lit up! That guy has entered the second layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda."
Everyone turned their gaze toward the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda.
Indeed, they found the light on the second layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda was lit.
"It took almost one and a half two-hour periods to enter the second layer. Such talent is truly mediocre to the extreme!" someone said, shaking their head.
"Humph!"
At this moment, Cheng Lin snorted coldly and said, "Just a loser! He can only enter the second layer. The third layer is undoubtedly a height he cannot reach!"
To be honest, Cheng Lin had previously considered Lin Fan a rival in his heart, but now, Cheng Lin has completely looked down on Lin Fan, feeling that Lin Fan is not worthy to be his opponent.
"Eh?"
But the next moment, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise again: "The light on the third layer, it’s actually lit up?"
"Yeah, the third layer has lit up? Could it be, that guy has actually entered the third layer?"
"No way? So fast? It’s only been a few breaths of time since the second layer’s light was lit up, and he’s already this fast?"
"Could it be? Has Lin Fan encountered some kind of incredible opportunity on the first layer? Otherwise, there’s no way he could move from the second to the third layer so fast?"
"It seems that we have really underestimated Lin Fan!"
"Look, the fourth layer, the fourth layer’s light is on!"
"What? The fourth layer is lit up? How is that possible? My God, it’s really lit up? Lin Fan has entered the fourth layer? Doesn’t that mean Lin Fan is already a Three-star genius?"
"What in the world is going on? Is the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda broken? Otherwise, how could it light up continuously?"
"The fifth layer’s light is on? Damn it, could it be that Lin Fan is actually a Four-Star genius?"
...Honestly speaking, when the light on the fourth layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda lit up, everyone was already horrified.
And now, as the light on the fifth layer lit up, everyone was utterly shocked.
Even Elder Li Rou was shocked at this moment.
Others may not know the terror of a Four-Star genius, but Elder Li Rou was well aware. She knew that as long as no accidents occurred, a Four-Star genius could certainly grow into an Unparalleled Expert in the future.
Elder Li Rou never dreamed that among the Outer Court disciples this time, there would emerge a Four-Star genius?
At the same time, Elder Li Rou was also very puzzled in her heart. Since Lin Fan’s talent was so outstanding, why did he spend one and a half two-hour periods in the first layer?
And after spending one and a half two-hour periods in the first layer, why did he then pass through the following levels in quick succession, swiftly reaching the fifth layer?
Little did Elder Li Rou know that as Lin Fan’s Heart Realm grew on the first layer, coupled with his Ancient Martial Soul, the Illusion Realms in each subsequent layer of the Sky Star Treasure Pagoda were virtually nonexistent to Lin Fan. He could easily pass through the Illusion Realms and enter the next layer. freёnovelkiss.com
Next, the light on the sixth layer also lit up.
This also meant that Lin Fan was now a Five-Star genius!
The crowd was too shocked to speak for a moment, and the entire Sky Star Plaza was very quiet.
Soon, the light on the Seventh Layer lit up once again.
Lin Fan entered the Seventh Layer, which was enough to prove that he was a Six-Star genius.
Li Rou’s face still revealed an expression of utter shock, and she thought to herself: "Where does this demon come from? In the previous talent assessment, while his performance was indeed outstanding, it absolutely should not have reached this level!"
"What kind of power is it that allows him to rise rapidly in such a short period of time?"
"Could it be, this guy is capable of reaching the top? To become the legendary Seven-star Genius?"
At that moment, Li Rou actually felt a sense of anticipation; she hoped that Lin Fan could reach the top, so that she could witness the birth of an Unparalleled Genius.
However, quickly, Li Rou couldn’t help but shake her head.
"I’m overthinking it!" she thought: "In the history of our Sky Star Sect, no one has ever successfully reached the top. It’s just too difficult—it’s almost certainly impossible!"
"Though Lin Fan’s performance was dazzling just a moment ago, it’s still impossible for him to reach the top!"
Thinking this, Li Rou surprisingly found herself feeling somewhat disappointed deep inside.
...
But as for Lin Fan!
Lin Fan had originally thought that the Seventh Layer would also be an Illusion Realm!
What Lin Fan did not expect was that, upon entering the Seventh Layer, he found that it was not an illusion, but a real space.
"Who would have thought that this isn’t an Illusion Realm? So what is the Seventh Layer testing?" Lin Fan couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
"Heh heh!"
Right after Lin Fan’s words fell, a chuckling voice suddenly sounded out.
"Young man, you’re pretty good!"
The voice went on to say.
You should know that this space had been very quiet before.
Lin Fan had never thought that there could be another person in this space?
So, when that voice appeared, Lin Fan was immediately startled.
The next moment, Lin Fan instantly entered a state of full combat readiness, ready to react immediately should any danger present itself.
"You don’t need to be nervous, young man. I have no ill intentions towards you. Besides, if I really had any ill intentions, you would have been dead already!" the voice continued to say.
Although the voice said so, Lin Fan still maintained an absolutely vigilant defense. He was not going to let his guard down just because of a single sentence from the other party.
Soon after, a figure emerged from the void.
To be exact, it was an ethereal figure.
Lin Fan looked and found that he couldn’t clearly see the face of the figure, as if it was shrouded in a layer of special energy, completely hiding its appearance.
"Stop right there!"
The figure had approached not far from Lin Fan, when Lin Fan suddenly shouted out loud: "If you come any closer, I’m going to attack!"
Lin Fan could not be one hundred percent certain that the other party had no malice, and for his own safety, once the other got within attack range, he would not hesitate to strike.
Although Lin Fan was not an evil person, he certainly wasn’t a saint either.
Under such circumstances, Lin Fan would rather kill wrongly than let off any threat.
After hearing what Lin Fan said, the figure indeed stopped in its tracks, chuckled again, and spoke: "Heh heh, quite vigilant, I see. But I like your character. You know, in the world of cultivation, it’s all about the survival of the fittest. You must always be cautious of others. Only such people can go far. Very good, very good indeed!"
The figure continuously nodded while speaking.
Despite the figure’s praise, Lin Fan remained indifferent and asked: "Who are you, exactly?"
