Surviving in high-level martial arts and stacking Hextech

Chapter 91 Behind the Stone Tablet

The weightlessness of the spatial travel lasted only a few seconds before disappearing completely.

When Jiang Feng's feet stepped onto the smooth stone surface again, the sight before him made even this worldly-wise man gasp in surprise.

There were no walls around; looking up, looking down, and looking around, all one could see was the deep, boundless vacuum of space. Countless colorful nebulae slowly rotated in the far distance, and enormous celestial bodies seemed within reach, a scene of breathtaking beauty, like a dream.

Beneath your feet is a plaza, and beyond that stone monument that spans the sky, there are the void steps that extend to the heavens.

At the end, a purple star floats.

"That should be the observatory."

Lin Lu also appeared behind Jiang Feng, her gaze also fixed on the direction.

The so-called stars are just a metaphor. The sphere is actually only the size of a fist, and its entire body presents a mesmerizing and dazzling aurora color. It seems not to be matter, but to be formed from the purest starlight.

Even just a glance from afar, Jiang Feng could feel his blood and qi surging wildly within him, and even the "Purgatory Dragon Soul" deep within his soul emitted an extremely eager buzzing sound!

"That is... Star Essence?" Jiang Feng clenched his fists involuntarily, his eyes burning.

The diary records that the Star Marrow entering the body can even allow a person to undergo a postnatal transformation and develop the terrifying "Sacred Bone" aptitude! This is absolutely a rare and supreme treasure in this ruin, and even in the entire empire.

Standing beside him, Lin Lu's eyes were also filled with turbulent emotions.

The two walked up to the stone tablet blocking their way and saw the ancient characters engraved on it.

"Only those with exceptional talents can enter..." Lin Lu read the words aloud and murmured, "This must be the 'assessment' mentioned in the diary, right?"

"It should be." Jiang Feng nodded. He naturally had no intention of hiding any longer when it came to such a treasure, so he said, "Shall I go and try?"

To everyone's surprise, Lin Lu was different this time. She shook her head, stepped forward, and said, "I want to try too."

"Uh..." Jiang Feng was taken aback.

An unusual silence fell over the air for several seconds.

He then spoke, "Then you go first."

To be honest, he didn't think the other party could pass the test.

After all, she only had the Xuan Bone aptitude and was only at the fifth level of Body Tempering.

A smile played on Lin Lu's lips as she softly hummed in agreement and slowly extended her hand forward.

"call out!"

A blood-red streak suddenly pierced through the spot where her right hand had been!

The two people present were greatly alarmed!

If Lin Lu hadn't stopped in time, her right hand would probably have been severed at the root by now!

"What a vicious method! Who is it?!" Lin Lu's eyes flashed with a fierce light as she shouted.

"hehe."

In the plaza not far away, ripples spread across the space as one figure after another emerged from them.

These were the people who had previously landed in the herb garden.

"Such a rich power of starlight."

The one who spoke was Lu Hengzhou, who had just made his move. After scanning the area, his hawk-like eyes fixed intently on the 'purple star' above.

With his perspective as the heir of the Lu family, even if he couldn't recognize what this thing was, he could still sense the terrifying energy contained within it that was enough to transform a person completely.

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Lu Hengzhou's handsome face erupted with undisguised greed and fervor.

He ignored the large crowd behind him, looked at Lin Lu who was about to touch him, smiled, and said:

"That cowardly fellow, trying to make a move now? Heh, get lost!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Lu's eyes, but before she could react, a sharp whistling sound of wind breaking filled the air!

"Wow, that's fast!"

Just as Jiang Feng caught Lu Hengzhou's movement, a loud "boom" was heard.

Lin Lu was sent flying backwards.

It landed on the square in the distance.

Lu Hengzhou didn't even give Jiang Feng a chance to speak, but instead swept his gaze across the entire room with a disdainful look.

"Zhang Ruanruan isn't here, so you clowns shouldn't bother joining in the fun. Get lost."

He finally dropped the pretense he had with his classmates.

Immediately, he turned his gaze to Jiang Feng beside him.

"As for you, do you really think that just because you possess some so-called pseudo-dragon power, you're qualified to challenge me?"

After saying that, without Lu Hengzhou making any move, the huge stone tablet in front of him began to spontaneously emit a dazzling light, enveloping his entire body.

Unlike ordinary people who need to be assessed, Lu Hengzhou was actually chosen by the stone tablet on his own initiative!

"Such a thing can't be true."

Luo Feng stared blankly at the figure that disappeared into the square and then stepped onto the stairs, a hint of relief appearing in his voice.

No, the assessment ended before we even had a chance to compete, so what's there to say?

He couldn't understand what the purple sphere in the sky represented either, but whatever it was, it was probably out of his reach.

"We can't let him go up alone!"

In a crowd, there are always some people who are unwilling to watch their opportunities slip away.

Zhang Shixu, Ding Xiuqi, Chen Lin, and many other transfer students from Tianyuan Star stepped forward and landed at the stone tablet.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Feng first went to Lin Lu.

She fainted after being struck by Lu Hengzhou's attack.

Jiang Feng frowned. He had naturally heard Lu Hengzhou say "hiding his head and showing his tail" earlier. Although he was puzzled, he was unconscious and there were some things he could not ask.

Seeing that Lin Lu was in good condition, he handed her over to Luo Feng and the other students from No. 13 Middle School for protection.

He himself arrived in front of the stone tablet.

There, Zhang Shixu and the others looked ashen-faced.

Because apart from them, even the three remaining transfer students from Tianyuan who were at the eighth level of Body Tempering failed the test on the stone tablet and were firmly blocked outside the steps.

Looking at Lu Hengzhou climbing higher and higher up the steps in the distance, everyone felt a surge of anxiety.

"Excuse me, could you please move aside?" Jiang Feng said at that moment.

One of the young men, Yan Yi, who was at the eighth level of Body Tempering, glanced at him and scoffed, "You want to try too?"

"Don't think you're useful just because you're at the eighth level of Body Tempering. Someone who hasn't even been through the Blood Pool really thinks they can succeed?"

Everyone vividly remembered the scene of Jiang Feng killing monsters in the hollow.

"What a show-off," another transfer student at the eighth level of Body Tempering sneered. "He even deliberately chose to be the last one to take the test. I think he just wants to get everyone's attention."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Perhaps because everyone was still angry about failing the test, they actually banded together and turned their anger from Lu Hengzhou to Jiang Feng.

The latter did not speak.

He simply sighed, shook his head, and stepped forward.

Then, a dragon's roar resounded within his body.

A dark red light flashed and disappeared in front of the stone tablet.

Amidst the swirling mist.

He also disappeared from the spot.
