Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor - Chapter 50

Chapter 50: They Laugh Because I’m Crazy

“That’s true.”

Ping Yuzi nodded slightly. The limit on the Martial Dragon Continent was ten dragon veins.

The first vein to the fifth were the easiest. However, after the fifth vein, every vein’s difficulty grew exponentially. Some people spent their lives trying to open the next one but failed and could only helplessly break through to the Dragon Blood Realm.

This was truly a matter of talent.

Xiao Yuhui had that talent and thus was able to open ten dragon veins. However, Chen Feng might not have the talent.

When they looked back at the blood pools, most people had entered the second pool.

However, many people started to give up starting from the third pool.

The pressure made them lose their breath. Although they could still direct beast blood into their bodies, however the pressure became stronger as more beast blood entered their bodies. Let alone condensing stars on their foreheads, their whole bodies couldn’t even handle the blood and felt like they were about to explode.

Sigh. “I guess my physique just isn’t good enough!”

Ping Yuzi shook his head, “It’s so bad that we have to eliminate so many people every time. If their physique isn’t good, they wouldn’t accomplish much even if they opened ten dragon veins, since they can only rely on grade-three beast blood.”

“I quit!”

Indeed, someone gave up after Ping Yuzi finished speaking.

After announcing that he quit, he immediately rushed out from the pool and the pressure quickly disappeared. His whole body was sweating as he breathed roughly from his pale face.

“I quit!”

“I also quit!”

It seemed that the first man had started a chain reaction. After he quit, more and more people began to follow suit, rushing out of the pools.

They had chosen to stay because being the first to quit was extremely embarrassing. It had already been extremely difficult for them to last until now.

In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand people started to walk out from the third pool. Standing around the pool, they looked at the others with envious eyes.

They understood that their physique had been decided the moment they quit. In the future, they could probably only infuse grade-three beast blood, or maybe even lesser, since they hadn’t lasted until the stars appeared on their foreheads.

This meant that their future paths were going to be extremely difficult. It also meant that the highest they could reach would be the Dragon Spirit Realm.

Dragon Spirit Realm cultivators weren’t exactly good, but weren’t bad either. On the Martial Dragon Continent, there were quite a handful of them.

However, in a poor place like the Far Mountain Province, all four Grand Patriarchs of the big clans were Dragon Spirit Realm cultivators.

“Everyone, no need to be disappointed!”

Just when everyone was beginning to feel defeated, someone suddenly noticed Su Han who was still sitting in the first pool and laughed. “Although our cultivation in the future will be limited, at least there’s still someone worse than us, is there not?”

Hearing this, many gazes suddenly fell on Su Han.

“Haha, that’s true!”

“No need to feel defeated! Some people who think they’re geniuses can also turn out to be trash. Let alone not having the abilities he claimed to have, he even has to pay us dozens of millions of gold pieces.”

“Compared to this guy who can’t even infuse grade-one beast blood, we’re considered to be pretty strong!”

Waves of mockery rang out. They knew that their future cultivation level wouldn’t be very high, and thus had a strange rage brewing inside of them. At this moment, all that rage had been poured out on Su Han.

“That’s enough!”

Right at this moment, Ping Yuzi suddenly yelled, “The second round hasn’t ended yet. What are all of you yelling about? Physique and potential are not your biggest weakness. Your biggest weakness is your mindset!”

Hearing this, everyone quickly shut up. They thought to themselves, Wasn’t Ping Yuzi picking on Su Han earlier? Why’s he suddenly on his side?

It couldn’t be because Ping Yuzi was looking down on them since they had revealed their poor physique. No matter what, they hadn’t embarrassed themselves. Until the final moment, Su Han had still not even managed to infuse grade-one beast blood. They were the ones that had won!

As for Su Han, he suddenly opened the eyes that had been previously tightly shut and looked towards Ping Yuzi.

This old man… Looks like he wasn’t really trying to pick on me, Su Han thought to himself.

Ping Yuzi was indeed not picking on Su Han. He merely hated people with no ambition.

If it had been anyone else, Ping Yuzi’s attitude would have remained the same.

Compared to Su Han, Ping Yuzi looked down on short-sighted people even more, like those people who were just babbling about Su Han.

If they were capable, then they would compete with the strong. What kind of man only compared himself with the weak?

“Su Han!”

Seeing that Su Han was looking towards him, Ping Yuzi said, “You should know that there’s only ten more hours until the second stage finishes. You’ll probably need two hours to infuse grade-one beast blood, six hours to infuse grade-two beast blood, and probably even more time for grade-three beast blood. If you keep stalling like this, you’re most likely going to end up broke!”

“If I start infusing now according to your speed, wouldn’t I also end up broke?”

Su Han shot a glance at Chen Feng and smiled softly. “After all, there’s someone who has already entered the fifth pool. Am I right?”

“Stubborn ass!”

Ping Yuzi flung his sleeves. “Do what you want. You wouldn’t heed any of my words anyway!”

…

In the blink of an eye, another two hours passed.

Leng Yihui, Hu Zhengyao, Yang Lin, and several others all entered the fifth pool.

As for Chen Feng, he had gotten up once again and entered the grade-six beast blood pool, drawing everyone’s attention.

On his forehead, the five stars that were slowly circulating seemed to be announcing that his physique was capable of infusing grade-five beast blood.

“Not bad indeed!”

Ping Yuzi’s eyes showed an intense admiration. “I remember last year’s first place’s limit was only the sixth pool, was it not? And he even failed to fully infuse the beast blood due to the time limit.”

“Yes.”

Bai Yu said, “However, that fellow Yun Yixuan entered the sixth pool at the final two-hour mark. As for Chen Feng, he still has eight hours until the second stage finishes.”

“Then, it seems like he really does have a chance at infusing sixth grade beast blood.” Ping Yuzi’s eyes lit up.

“Not exactly, since sixth grade beast blood is on the same level as a Dragon Grand Realm cultivator. Even if he were able to infuse it, eight hours probably wouldn’t be enough.”

Bai Yu said, “However, his physique is already extremely rare.”

“I feel a bit bad for Leng Yihui and the others.”

Ping Yuzi sighed, “They have only just now entered the fifth pool and seem to be struggling to infuse the blood. They probably wouldn’t be able to reach the sixth pool before the second stage finishes.”

“They’re already doing very well to be able to infuse fifth grade beast blood. I also only got to the fifth pool myself, back then.”

Said Li Qing as he looked to Su Han with a cold smile, “But at least I’m still miles ahead of that man.”
