C39 Go Home and Drink Your Milk
Jing Yunxiao spoke with full confidence, but it made the surrounding people laugh even louder.
It was as if they had all heard the funniest joke in the world.
"In my opinion, let him try. Then he will know just how big the gap is between Arterial Circulation Stage and Qi Martial Stage."
"He is not going to stop until he gets to know the grim reality, is he? This kid is really stubborn."
"If he is not this stubborn, he would not have been this foolish to come to the Great Desolate Mountain Range alone."
Amidst the discussions, the old man frowned. He obviously felt that Jing Yunxiao wasting his time was extremely displeasing. But in the end, he nodded his head and said: "Alright, since you want to try, then go ahead and try."
"Thank you very much."
Jing Yunxiao cupped his hands to show respect. He then leisurely walked to the side of the Force Measuring Pillar under the mocking and ridiculing gazes of the crowd.
"This kid can hit at most 90N."
"I bet he can’t make it over 100N, or else I will change my name from Danbar Wang to Gnaw Rabnad.”
Jing Yunxiao didn't mind at all.
To be among the top five, he must make it over 360N. Jing Yunxiao had already cultivated his Imperial Fire God Body to the initial stage, therefore, the physical strength of his fists was far stronger than ordinary people. In addition, though his martial cultivation was not high, his combat power was extremely strong. So, entering the top five should not be a problem.
BOOM!
His fist struck out with unstoppable force.
Under this punch, the numbers on the pillar changed crazily.
10N!
20N!
50N!
100N!
In the blink of an eye, it had exceeded 100N. At this moment, no one had the time to care if the person called Danbar Wang had changed his name to Gnaw Rabnad. Each and every one of them was still staring at the numbers on the pillar, because the numbers were still changing fast and there were no signs of them stopping.
This caused a commotion among the crowd.
Normally, no matter how strong a cultivator at the Ninth Level of Arterial Circulation Stage was, his physical strength would not be stronger than 100N.
110N.
150N.
200N.
Everyone was dumbstruck when the figure hit 200N. This was way beyond their understanding of martial Tao.
"This kid must have cultivated some sort of technique to strengthen his physique."
Someone explained.
The others all nodded.
However, the next scene caused them to be even more speechless and dumbfounded.
It was because the numbers on the Force Measuring Pillar had broken through 300N, that was something that could only be done by a martial cultivator of at least the Third Level of the Qi Martial Stage.
"What? The numbers are still changing? Heavens, is this world crazy?"
Someone shouted in shock.
Everyone once again set their sights on the Force Measuring Pillar and felt a burst of astonishment.
310N.
330N.
360N.
In an instant, the figure jumped to the same level as the fifth highest.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
But what was even harder for them to accept was that the numbers were still changing. In the end, they even surpassed the fourth highest and reached steadily at 390N before they finally stopped.
However, this figure was already high enough to cause one to mentally collapse.
390N, the new fourth highest.
"Is this kid really a cultivator at the Ninth Level of Arterial Circulation Stage? Since when did a cultivator of Arterial Circulation Stage can be so powerful like this? It was so unreal even if he had probably cultivated some technique to enhance his physique.”
"This must be fake. There must be something wrong with either my eyes or the pillar.”
"Yes, there must be something wrong with the Force Measuring Pillar. Otherwise, how could this brat have such power?"
No one could accept this fact, so when one said that the Force Measuring Pillar might be broken, they all agreed with him.
But the truth is, 390N was not the limit of Jing Yunxiao's real strength. If he did not hide it intentionally -- when the numbers jumped to 390N, Jing Yunxiao quickly let loose his fist -- he had the confidence to hit the top.
However, not only was doing that meaningless, it would also attract the attention of some ill-intentioned people. This was not what Jing Yunxiao would hope for.
"Let me give it a try, I don't believe it."
A cultivator at the Second Level of the Qi Martial Stage who did not believe the truth immediately rushed to the pillar and punched it ruthlessly.
200N.
There was nothing wrong with it.
"Impossible, let me give it a try too."
A cultivator at the Third Level of Qi Martial Stage also jumped out. After a round of testing, the result was 310N.
There’s still no problem with the pillar.
At this moment, no matter how unwilling the rest were to accept the fact that Jing Yunxiao had hit 390N, they would probably have to accept it.
"Ha-ha, you really can't judge a book by its cover, can you?"
The old man was also startled for a moment, but he quickly regained his senses and laughed heartily. He then turned to Jing Yunxiao and said: "Little brother, sorry that I have underestimated your ability, I hope you do not mind."
Jing Yunxiao smiled and shook his head: "Sir, I guess I’m qualified to take this mission now, right?"
The old man nodded. But just as he was about to announce the result, another voice suddenly came from outside the crowd, "Wait a minute."
This voice was somewhat familiar to Jing Yunxiao, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
However, when two figures walked out from the crowd, one tall and the other short, one fat and the other thin, Jing Yunxiao immediately recognized that these two were the ones who wanted to rip Jing Yunxiao off previously.
Who would have thought that these two would have come here as well?
"Hey brother, that little bastard is also here. Who would have thought that we could find him so effortlessly.”
The short and fat guy saw Jing Yunxiao immediately and pointed to Jing Yunxiao when he said this.
The tall and thin guy also looked at Jing Yunxiao. His eyes were filled with viciousness, as though saying, "Brat, you're dead this time."
However, Jing Yunxiao didn't care about these two at all, as if they were some stray cats or dogs.
This undoubtedly made them even more furious.
But at this moment, the old man said to them, "Do you want to take the test as well?"
The tall and thin guy stopped harassing Jing Yunxiao for the moment and turned to the old man: "Of course. We two are just worrying about having nothing to do. Please let us take this mission, we are much better than some useless brat of only Arterial Circulation Stage. "
The useless brat he was talking about was no doubt referring to Jing Yunxiao. Because among everyone here, Jing Yunxiao was the only cultivator of Arterial Circulation Stage.
The old man laughed awkwardly. Judging from his words, he knew that Jing Yunxiao was not on good terms with these two. But the old man did not care about this. He pointed to the Force Measuring Pillar instead and said: "Since that's the case, then please take the test. If you can obtain a result high enough to the top five, then you can take the mission.”
"Alright." The tall and thin guy walked out first. But when he passed by Jing Yunxiao, he purposely asked: "Sir, what is the result of this brat's test?"
The old man smiled, "390N, rank fourth."
"What?"
The tall and thin guy was shocked. He previously thought that Jing Yunxiao would at most hit somewhere between 100N to 200N, but he never expected that he would actually hit 390N. Although he was surprised, he didn’t show it on his face. The question he asked was intended to humiliate Jing Yunxiao. Therefore, he continued to say: “Tsk-tsk, you are indeed a piece of trash. How dare you take this mission with that puny strength of yours of no more than 400N? Hey kid, just go home and play with your toys!”
With that said, the tall and thin guy confidently punched on the Force Measuring Pillar.
