Chapter 450 Unexpected Return
Chapter 450 Unexpected Return
"Let's start the day, shall we." All the disciples wondered what kind of training they would have today, but what they did not expect was the huge pressure to fall upon them all of a sudden.
Their knees buckled as everyone had a different expression when they faced their current predicament.
Among them all, Ruo'er and Yuan Ming had the most persistence; despite the huge pressure, they failed to let their faces show their pain and suffering.
'What a monster.' From the corner of her eyes, Ruo'er noticed an odd thing. Everyone in the group was almost on the same level—their bending knees, their body posture—everything indicated that they were facing the same pressure, but that was impossible.
Each and every one of them was on a different level, be it their cultivation, bodies, or techniques—everything was different.
To be able to do something like that meant Noah was using different pressures on different people, and if controlling the qi to such a fine level was not monstrous, then nothing was.
Especially for someone who had not been in this world for less than a year.
Noah glanced at the expressions of all the disciples and carefully took note of their expressions before taking his pressure back.
"What was that for?!" Feeling the pressure suddenly disappearing, they all fell to the ground after losing balance.
Everyone looked at Tian Heng, the person who asked the question while casting a hateful look at Noah.
"That was for me to check where you all stand currently." Noah ignored the snappy expression of the boy and replied.
The rest looked at Noah with a confused expression, but they did not receive any explanation from him at all.
"I have to say, all of you are disappointing." From the start, there was pure indifference on Noah's face. His cold eyes looked at everyone as if they were non-living objects.
"None of you used your qi to push the pressure back when you could have easily done that."
"Is it because you all are too idiotic or too prideful?" They all felt their blood boiling, seeing the disgusted look in Noah's eyes. "Whatever, I am only responsible for training you for one day."
When they tried to search for Noah, they found he was long gone.
A long time had passed since they were in the illusion; even the sun that was once high in the sky was disappearing behind the tall mountains.
They were so engrossed in their battles that no one noticed the passage of time.
'Shit! I forgot to talk to him!' Snapping out of her daze, Ma Li just realized the most important thing that she wanted to do but forgot.
...
"Is it alright for you to leave them in the illusion like that?" Back in the cultivation chambers of the Elders, Noah woke up from his meditating stance and glanced at the woman who had just walked in.
"I can control that spell from here, so it's fine. Besides, their training just ended." Noah's reply caused Xin Yan to raise her eyebrows in wonder, but she did not continue on the topic and looked around the cave.
"How is the training on your side?"
"She is really tenacious. After suffering from the painful bath, she jumped straight into weapon training. She likes twin blades for some reason." Xin Yan chuckled in return, recalling the training she had been giving Wu Ping all day.
"When you were in seclusion these two weeks, I visited the royal capital." Xin Yan suddenly changed the topic. Hearing the somber tone in her voice, Noah also listened attentively. "I heard that Wuhan finally spread the word about the event."
"It caused a lot of ripples in the kingdom. Several forces have made their move in secret to sabotage this event, but the rules of the event will only allow geniuses to participate."
"They fear that if they send their geniuses, they will lose face if they are recognized." Noah understood what Xin Yan wanted to say next. He grinned, seeing how Wuhan executed his plan with perfect consideration.
Noah could see Xin Yan had something else on her mind as well, so he silently looked at her, prompting her to speak.
"Is that the reason why you called that man to the capital city? To fight him in this event and use the audience to humiliate him?" After she heard about the event's details for the first time in the royal city, Xin Yan recalled how Noah asked the trash from the Long family to meet him in the royal city.
"Looks like our Xin Yan has grown smarter~" Before Noah could speak, another voice rang in the room. Realizing the identity of the person, both of their eyes widened in surprise.
'That b*tch is back!'
