The Left-Eyed Celestial Emperor

Chapter 18 – Rankings

“I do.” Zhao Feng refrained from shouting.

At this moment, he only needed one thought to emit a faint green light from his palm. If one did not take a closer look, he would not be able to see it. This was the first thread of Inner Strength that Zhao Feng had formed. He never thought that his dream would be so close to him.

Once one formed the first thread of their Inner Strength, the bottleneck to the fourth rank would be almost non-existent.

For Zhao Feng, now was only a matter of time. He only needed to reach the peak of the third rank and he would be able to step into the fourth rank, becoming a true martial artist.

“There were no other outer disciples in the Zhao sect who had formed the first thread of their Inner Strength. Even Zhao Yue and Zhao Yijian .... ”When Zhao Feng thought up to here, he had a satisfied expression.

Being able to form inner strength at the third rank meant that he was unstoppable for his cultivation level.

“A two hundred year old blood factory cannot be wasted.” Zhao Feng felt that his body still had the remains of a blood plant so he formed some threads of Inner Strength.

Inner strength is one's strength compressed to a higher level. In order to consolidate his Inner Strength, Zhao Feng meditated for one day and one night.

As he stepped out of his room, he felt that every single breath of his could instantly bring about great pressure.

Zhao Feng's parents were also aware of this.

“Feng’er seems a little different. It seems like he has more energy at the moment. ” Zhao Shi smile.

“It's time to accelerate its growth.” His father Zhao Tianyang even felt a faint pressure emanating from Zhao Feng.

Their feelings are not wrong. This change had indeed happened to Zhao Feng.

After joining those mysterious eyes, Zhao Fengs blood slowly began to change… ..

The most obvious thing was his strength, which increased very quickly.

His height and mental energy also increased.

Adding to the change in his heart state, his entire aura had changed.

“Even my parents can see that I have changed. This meant that martial artists could easily see that I had formed Inner Strength. ” Zhao Feng thought hard. There was still one month left until the family title contest, and the goal was to enter the top three!

“I need a way to hide my inner strength.” Immediately, a hundred martial arts skills appeared in his mind.

He immediately selected a skill named “Hiding Air Technique”.

The Hiding Air Technique was not a battle skill, it could not even increase one's cultivation. The reason why Zhao Feng took it earlier was because it was a peak middle rank martial art, the same level as the Furious Dragon Fist.

If the Air Hiding Technique was trained to a low level, it could hide one's inner strength and cultivation. When it reached a high level, one could control its aura. When it reached the peak level, one could remove one's aura, which could be used to track and spy. Even a dog would not be able to smell someone's existence.

Zhao Feng started practicing the Air Hiding Technique on the same day. Even though it was a peak, middle rank martial arts were easy for Zhao Feng to practice within.

Using only half a day's time, Zhao Feng had trained the Air Hiding Technique to a low level, meaning he could now hide his inner strength. Even a true martial artist of the fourth rank or higher would not be able to know that Zhao Feng had inner strength.

“According to the book, one needs at least a few months to train it to a low level.” Zhao Feng was a little surprised, but then he thought about how he even learned Lightly Floating Ferry, which was a high-level martial art.

Since the Hiding Air Technique was now at a low level, Zhao Feng could now walk around openly.

After a few days, it was time to register for a family contest.

“Feng’er, you can sign up for a family title contest now. Don't forget to sign up. ” Zhao Tianyang warned him.

“OK, I'll go now.” Zhao Feng was very confident.

Zhao Tianyang nodded his head, “You have already reached the third rank. You should be able to reach the top hundred. ”

“Top hundred?” Zhao Feng laughed as he shook his head. His parents did not trust him much. Zhao Feng felt confident that if he could not occupy the first position, he could still occupy the top three.

Soon after, Zhao Feng arrived at the registration place.

The contest is held every three years and the registration time is one month before the contest itself.

There were many other disciples lined up when Zhao Feng arrived.

“Do you hear? This year's pay is great! ” A disciple of Zhao said.

“Gift? Tell us! No wonder you are an inner disciple. ” Some of the surrounding disciples had interested expressions as they looked towards the inner disciple.

No wonder he deserves to be an inner disciple. Zhao Feng thought, Any random inner disciple has such power.“

“Those who become one of the top fifty will become inner disciples and will have the opportunity to enter the second floor of the Martial Arts Library and choose a high-level martial arts skill. They would also receive a three hundred year old blood plant. Those who reached the top twenty could choose two high ranked martial arts skills and would obtain a two, three hundred year old blood plant. ”

The inner disciple stopped.

“Wah! Three hundred year old blood plant! The sect spent a lot of money on the contest this year. ”

“High level martial arts skills! Normal disciples would probably never learn it. ” The disciples around looked surprised by the news. Even Zhao Feng was delighted.

A three hundred year old blood plant is worth three thousand silver. Clearly, the fact that they had to enter the second floor of the Martial Arts Library was more appealing to him.

“If I get the chance to enter into the second floor of the Martial Arts Library, I can bring out a large number of high-level skills.” Zhao Feng was full of anticipation.

This time the inner disciple continued, The top “Ten can choose two high-level martial arts and will also get a five hundred year old blood plant!”

Five hundred year old blood plant!

Many disciples rubbed their palms when thinking about it. A five hundred year old blood plant is worth ten thousand silver!

“His top three can choose a peak ranking skill, two high ranking skills and will also obtain Yun blood pills.

“High rank martial arts!”

“Pil blood Yun?”

A person who trained in peak rank martial arts could cultivate up to the ninth rank of the Martial Path. As for the “ Yun” blood pill, it was a precious pill that helped to increase one's cultivation.

This type of precious pill was worth over fifty thousand silver ……

“What does the first champion get?” Someone asked.

“You're right. Usually the first place gets an extra reward. ” Some disciple Zhao said.

“First place will definitely get extra gifts, but even I don't know what it is.” The inner disciple shook his head.

Uh.

The students were disappointed. However, having no idea, they are increasingly intrigued to find out.

After waiting a long time. Zhao Feng finally arrived at the registration place and took the badge. The badge has the number 188 on it. Zhao Feng now knew what his number was.

The Zhao Sect had several hundred disciples who were entering the contest. According to the rules, there were only fifty places for inner disciples under the age of eighteen.

There were fifty inner disciples at this moment.

This meant that some inner disciples might be knocked out and then replaced by new generation disciples. Therefore, this contest was extremely cruel.

After registering, Zhao Feng returned home to work even harder.

Days pass. The time for the family race is getting closer.

Twenty days before the family race begins there is already a list of estimated ratings. And the one who ranked first was the inner disciple who was the genius of the Zhao sect, Zhao Linlong!

Zhao Linlong had reached the fourth rank of the Martial Path two years ago. He was ranked third in the last contest. At that time he was not fifteen years old.

Now, he was one of the four geniuses of Sun Feather City. There was no doubt that he was the strongest!

Second place was Zhao Chi, third place Zhao Han, fourth place Zhao Qin! When Zhao Feng saw this, he took a cold breath. Zhao Yue, the first among the outer disciples, did not even reach the top twenty of the inner disciples.

Zhao Yijian and Zhao Yufei were ranked thirty-eight and forty respectively.

As for Zhao Gan and Zhao Guang who were both ranked in the top five among the outer disciples, they were overall ranked forty-nine and fifty-three. The rank had a total of a hundred people. Zhao Feng continued to search.

And finally!

On the second to last name on the list, Zhao Feng finally found his own name …….
