Chapter 252 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
The jungle is a more complex environment, making it suitable for them to hide.
Everyone else had no objections, but Hu Chengcai insisted on contradicting Yun Fuzhao, saying, "What are we going there for? To die? What if some kind of demon or monster escapes from there? Can we handle it?"
He lifted his robe and sat down on the ground, only to be startled awake by the cold.
Yun Fuzhao originally wanted to argue with him, but seeing his appearance, she gave up the idea.
Well, he's already like this, let him have his way.
"If you don't want to go over, then stay here. We're coming over."
After saying that, Yun Fuzhao took the lead and walked there.
Yu Zhiyue followed closely behind.
The others had just gone over there too.
In the end, Hu Chengcai was left standing alone on the ice. Although he was unhappy with Yun Chao and deliberately disobeyed his orders, he was now a sitting duck as he stood there alone.
He hesitated for a moment, but gritted his teeth and followed.
Stepping onto the ice surface on this side of the jungle, my lower body shivered from the cold, while my upper body was scorched red by the flames on the trees.
Yun Fuzhao wiped the sweat from her face. She could actually use her spiritual energy to resist the environment, but among them, her cultivation was the highest. If she exhausted her spiritual energy on the first day, how would she survive the rest?
"Who do you think will come out on top in this grand competition among aristocratic families?"
In the illusory overseas world, the Tian Shu Pavilion broadcasted the situation inside live.
Disciples outside can see the performance of their family's disciples by going to Ju'an Square.
"Is there even a question? The first is definitely the Shangguan family. The second is the Yu family, the third is the Gongsun family... I can recite this ranking with my eyes closed."
"I think the Yu family might come out on top. Have you all forgotten that the daughter the Yu family found is the contractor of the Phoenix? The Phoenix is an ancient mythical beast."
“I think so too. Although the Shangguan family has dragon blood, that’s all they have. If someone in their family were to form a contract with a dragon, then they might be able to rival the Yu family now.”
"No, I support the Shangguan family. Yu Nian'er is from the Southern Continent; supporting her is tantamount to betraying the Northern Continent!"
"It's just a competition, and it's already escalated to a matter of stance?"
The crowd discussed this extensively, but almost all the conversations revolved around the top families.
They didn't even bother to look at the other prominent families.
There are dozens of projection stones in Ju'an Square, and disciples can choose which family they want to watch.
The projection stones of the first few aristocratic families were packed with people, all eagerly anticipating their performances. The projection stones of the later families, however, were deserted, with not a single person in front of the nameless aristocratic family.
What people want to see is a dominant force, not a bunch of weaklings fighting each other.
Unaware of the scene outside, Yun Fuzhao, who was in the Sea of Illusion, led the group forward.
The dense forest stretched as far as the eye could see, and no one knew where the exit was.
Yun Fuzhao planned to get closer to the exit first, so that they could leave immediately when the three-day deadline was up.
Even without stealing the Heart Flame from other aristocratic families, having eight of them would be enough to lift the Nameless Family out of last place.
"I can't go on anymore," Hu Chengcai waved his hand, "I'm not going anymore, I'm too tired."
Especially when the body is in two extreme situations.
Yun Fuzhao turned his head and glanced at the condition of the others. They looked like they were about to collapse as well.
Therefore, Yun Fuzhao had no choice but to let everyone rest for a while.
Among them, Fu Qiuling was in the best condition, after all, she was a body cultivator.
"My legs seem to have lost all feeling." Yu Zhiyue pounded her legs and heard two "bang" sounds.
"It must warm up."
Yun Fuzhao was startled when she heard the deep, magnetic voice, and subconsciously looked at Bian Luo. He looked so innocent and docile, yet his voice was such a contrast.
Perhaps sensing her gaze, Bian Luo shrank back, like a snail retreating into its shell.
He's the only healer in the team right now, so we have to listen to him.
Yun Fuzhao thought for a moment and handed her the hand warmer, saying, "Put these in your shoes."
The others did the same.
Now that my feet are warm, walking won't feel like my legs are newly grown anymore.
After a short rest, Yun Fuzhao heard a faint noise.
She immediately stood up, took out her Tai'a sword, and looked warily to the side.
The group emerged from the waist-high weeds.
"I knew I wasn't mistaken, they really are from an unknown family."
Yun Fuzhao glanced at the totem on the other person's chest: He Family. The tenth-to-last family in the family rankings. That ranking was acceptable.
If I were assigned to a major family, it would take a lot of effort.
“You've got sharp eyes, kid,” the leader grinned, his eyes gleaming with a sly look. “Let’s steal their heart fire first.”
As the last-ranked family, with combat power practically nonexistent, the Nameless Clan naturally became the target of everyone's attacks.
Seeing the aggressive approach of the other party, Hu Chengcai quietly hid at the back.
"Those who know what's good for them will hand over all the spirit fire to avoid suffering."
“Yes, just like your senior brothers and sisters before,” a disciple laughed, “offering themselves with both hands and pitifully begging us not to do anything.”
He remembered Yun Fuzhao, the nameless family. In fact, this was their style in every family competition.
— Surrender without a fight.
They are often eliminated right at the start.
The He family naturally assumed that they would do the same this time.
Unfortunately, they were wrong; this generation of nameless family disciples were all rebellious by nature.
“Since you’ve delivered yourselves to our doorstep,” Yun Fuzhao didn’t want to get entangled with them any longer, as summoning other powerful families nearby would be troublesome. “Then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
"Hahaha, you little rascal, today I'll teach you what it means to be—"
Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped away.
Yun Fuzhao patted the Bloodthirsty Lotus, "Good boy, finish this quickly."
As ordered, each Bloodthirsty Lotus is bound together with one other.
The leading He family disciple immediately drew his spear and unleashed a series of small attacks on the roots.
However, the root system easily evaded it.
The red roots bent up, forming a question mark.
Taunt skills maxed out.
The He family disciple was furious. Just as he was about to continue his attack, he was whipped away by the roots and spun 360 degrees in the air.
They were dealt with in just five minutes.
The roots gave them a thumbs-up upside down and then happily returned to Yun Fuzhao's side.
Yu Zhiyue stared in disbelief, “Master, you, this, it…”
Bu Xiuwei: "The plant has become a spirit?"
Yun Fuzhao rubbed the petals of the Bloodthirsty Lotus. "Alright, take the inner fire from them."
Bu Xiuwei rubbed his hands together, looking excited. "Got it!"
He had just taken a step when a figure swiftly passed by him, startling Bu Xiuwei.
Hu Chengcai took three steps in two and slapped the fallen He family disciple several times. "You bunch of bastards! Now you know how powerful I am, right? Do you dare to bully me again next time?!"
Yun Fuzhao: "..."
