Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor - Chapter 49

Chapter 49: Chen Feng

Whether it was for the first place or the ten thousand gold pieces, everyone was hard at work trying to infuse beast blood.

Only Su Han had sat with his legs crossed and eyes closed, with no intention of infusing any beast blood.

“He probably has a reason for being so calm. You don’t have to worry so much, Yuhui,” said Bai Yu.

Despite his words, he still secretly felt a bit glad, because Xiao Yuhui had been confident in Su Han from the start and had thought that Su Han was going to take first place no matter what he did.

However, now Su Han had made enemies with several thousand men and had made a bet that would cost him dozens of millions of gold pieces. Moreover, he had even fully offended Ping Yuzi.

At this moment, Su Han still treated everything like a game and was not bothered by it at all!

Bai Yu had a crush on Xiao Yuhui and even secretly thought of her as his own woman. Seeing Xiao Yuhui panic like this had somewhat comforted Bai Yu.

In Bai Yu’s opinion, Su Han was only putting up an act.

Bai Yu wasn’t aware that the words he had said to Xiao Yuhui actually rang true.

Su Han dared to behave that way because he had his reasons.

Splash!

After only two more hours, a red radiance suddenly burst out on someone’s forehead.

The red radiance quickly condensed, and eventually a star appeared on the forehead.

As the star appeared, the man’s eyes opened, and he immediately got up and jumped into the pool of grade-two beast blood.

“Hahaha, Leng Yihui again!”

Ping Yuzi had already considered Leng Yihui as his own personal disciple, and laughed out loud once he saw that Leng Yihui was the first to have a star on his forehead.

“I did not choose wrongly when I said that he was going to my personal disciple. He infused grade-one beast blood in only two hours. From this, I can see that his physique is capable of infusing grade-four beast blood and even above!”

Bai Yu smiled. “First Elder, this man already has immense potential for opening dragon veins. I didn’t expect that he also has a strong physique. Although dragon veins are the most important part of talent, physique is extremely important as well. With such a great physique, even if Leng Yihui isn’t able to catch up to Xiao Yuhui, he will at least become a super strong Dragon Core cultivator. Looks like we’re going to have to congratulate the First Elder.”

Ping Yuzi smiled as he shook his head. “It’s still a bit early for congratulations. The more talents this disciple displays, the more people will see his potential. There are a lot more sect elders above me. If they claimed that they also wanted to take Leng Yihui in as their personal disciple, then there would be nothing I could do about it.”

“It will still be his own decision. If Leng Yihui himself chooses you to be his mentor, then no one else would have the right to refute that decision,” said Bai Yu.

“Haha, that’s true!”

Ping Yuzi nodded. It was only because of this that he had faith that he would be able to take Leng Yihui in as his own personal disciple.

…

As Leng Yihui entered the grade-two beast blood pool, Hu Zhengyao and Yang Lin as well as some others also managed to condense stars on their forehead, and followed Leng Yihui into the next pool.

The three of them were originally similar in talents. What mattered was the grade of the beast blood infused, not the speed of infusing.

The fourth to enter the second pool was Chen Feng.

When he got up, his gaze fell on Su Han. His lips curled up as he revealed a sinister smile.

“It’s already been quite long, and you still haven’t started infusing blood?

“Su Han, are you not willing to infuse blood, or too afraid?

“No matter what, the gap between you and me is quickly spreading apart. Let alone you, I don’t even see Leng Yihui and the others as my competition!”

Soon after Chen Feng got up, people started to get into the second pool one by one.

Among the several thousand people, even the worst cultivator had opened at least five dragon veins. Such a person was considered to be slightly above average on the Martial Dragon Continent and was definitely able to become a Dragon Blood Realm cultivator, which was one of the Frost Cloud Sect’s requirements for disciples.

If one was not even capable of opening five dragon veins, how would he be able to infuse beast blood?

However, if one opened five dragon veins, then at the very least he would be able to infuse grade-one beast blood.

The last person to enter the second pool of blood entered after four hours.

In a sense, it could be said that he was the second-last to enter, since there was one more person remaining in the first pool. That person was, of course, Su Han.

Until now, Su Han still hadn’t begun to direct beast blood into his body.

Ping Yuzi was longer paying him any attention. Whatever Su Han thought was none of Ping Yuzi’s business. As long as someone among the several thousand people won, then it would be fine for him.

…

As time flew past and the sixth hour came around, Leng Yihui went into the pool of third grade beast blood.

At the fourteen-hour mark, someone entered the pool of fourth grade beast blood.

However, to Ping Yuzi’s surprise, this man was Hu Zhengyao, not Leng Yihui.

Moreover, after Hu Zhengyao, Yang Lin followed him into the fourth pool of blood. In terms of speed, Leng Yihui was now in third place.

Just when everyone thought that Leng Yihui would be the third to enter the fourth pool of blood, another dark horse appeared.

That man was Chen Feng!

Chen Feng walked out from the third pool. Then, he leapt straight across the fourth pool of blood and landed in the pool of fifth grade beast blood.

“What?”

“This man is jumping directly into the fifth pool? Isn’t he being too overconfident?”

“He’s not being overconfident. Look at his expression. Although heavy, his expression shows that he’s completely capable of withstanding the pressure of the fifth pool.”

Many others looked towards Chen Feng as Chen Feng sat down in the fifth pool with his legs crossed. He seemed to emit a blinding radiance as he sat alone in the pool, standing out from everyone.

His expression was heavy, as if he was trying extremely hard to defend from the pressure. Although he had begun to direct beast blood into his body, the speed had become much slower when compared to before.

If Chen Feng stayed at this speed, then he would probably only be able to squeeze in the fifth star right as the second stage finished.

However, this showing was already extremely impressive. A fifth grade fiend beast was at the same level as a Dragon God Realm cultivator. Although the blood was fake, the pressure was in fact no different from the real thing. If Chen Feng was able to endure the power of such pressure and even direct the beast blood into his body, it would only mean that his physique was extremely strong.

“Who could have guessed…”

Ping Yuzi sighed softly, “I had thought that Leng Yihui would also come first in the second stage. Who could’ve guessed that he had already been overtaken by three others? Chen Feng, especially, hid it so well. I am eager to see how many dragon veins he’ll be able to open in the third stage.”

“Should be at least nine veins.”

Bai Yu said seriously, “Physique has nothing to do with dragon veins. However, the more dragon veins you open, the stronger your ability to withstand pressure. If he’s able to withstand the pressure of the fifth pool, it should mean that he’s already opened at least nine dragon veins.”

“Nine dragon veins… Yuhui had only opened eight when she entered the sect, right?” Ping Yuzi smiled.

Bai Yu said, “Well, that comparison isn’t really fair. Even if Chen Feng did open nine dragon veins, it doesn’t mean that he’ll be able to open his tenth dragon vein in the future.”
