Chereads / Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword / Chapter 30 - 30 chapters, number 1!

Chapter 30 - 30 chapters, number 1!

Shi Qingfeng began his final fifty-meter rush.

Boom! Boom!

This guy dares to be so proud, indeed possessing great strength, even though the Copper Man's power had been raised to the Eighth Layer of Body Refinement, he was not a match for him in any way, and was similarly blasted into disarray.

He did not stop at all as he burst through the sixty-meter mark, securing the first point.

"Not enough to see! Not enough to see!" Shi Qingfeng laughed wildly, his feet not pausing for a moment.

The Copper Man of the Ninth Layer of Body Refinement appeared!

"Get back!" Shi Qingfeng's eyes were bloodshot, his battle spirit soaring, even the Copper Man of the Ninth Layer of Body Refinement had no resistance in his hands and was blasted askew.

He advanced another ten meters, entering the Copper Man Array of the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement.

From the Ninth Layer to the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement, this was a qualitative leap, with the Blood Refinement Realm Copper Man's strength at least doubling!

"Hahaha, mere lifeless being is not truly from the Blood Refinement Realm, what can it do to me?" Shi Qingfeng roared with laughter, clenched his fists, and actually began a fierce battle with these Copper Men.

His talent was indeed terrifying, able to withstand the Bronze Man of the Blood Refinement Realm with just the strength of the Ninth Layer Peak of Body Refinement! Although the Copper Men had no intelligence, being controlled by mechanisms, still, achieving this was mind-blowing.

Even Zhou Heng, Shen Xinqi, those who disliked Shi Qingfeng's character, had to admire his strength.

Shi Qingfeng collapsed at the eighty-third meter!

That is to say, he had passed through the Copper Man Array of the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement, and he had also made it three meters into the Copper Man Array of the Eleventh Layer of Body Refinement, and although it was only three meters, it was enough to inspire awe.

"Pass!" Zhu Xun revealed a hint of satisfaction, such a performance was quite good, and might barely make it into the top ten among the Outer Sect disciples!

"Next!" He pointed to Chang Kang.

Chang Kang's face was somewhat serious, the previous seventy meters were naturally no challenge for him, but facing the Copper Man of the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement, could he forge ahead like Shi Qingfeng?

"Begin!"

Chang Kang's figure leaped lightly into the corridor, his movement technique extremely agile; the Copper Man of the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement was too slow in throwing punches and could not even touch a corner of his clothes.

Fifty meters, sixty meters, seventy meters!

Chang Kang's pace suddenly slowed, ahead was the Copper Man of the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement, a huge test for him! He was most adept at movement techniques, but in such a narrow space, there was no room to dodge!

"Chang Kang, are you scared?" Shi Qingfeng, not too badly injured and after a brief period of breath adjustment had recovered mostly, suddenly jeered at Chang Kang.

Chang Kang, not willing to lose to Shi Qingfeng, immediately began rushing forward.

Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang bang bang!

Facing the terrifying strength and speed of the Tenth Layer of Body Refinement, Chang Kang, known for his movement techniques, was heavily hit, being brutally blasted by the Copper Men and collapsed after moving forward only five meters, blood spurting as he fell.

Zhu Xun stopped the mechanism and said, "Not bad, pass!"

With his insight, he naturally could see where Chang Kang was at a disadvantage.

Next were Zhang Zijun, followed by Shen Xinqi, such an order puzzled everyone, why was Zhou Heng arranged last? What special traits did this boy possess that warranted the final spotlight?

However, Zhang Zijun and Shen Xinqi's abilities surprised everyone anew!

Zhang Zijun, eighty-seven meters!

Shen Xinqi, ninety-two meters!

Both of their scores actually surpassed Shi Qingfeng, especially Shen Xinqi, who even made it through the Copper Man Array of the Eleventh Layer of Body Refinement, a feat terrifying enough to be shocking!

Zhou Heng, however, noticed that when the Copper Men hit Shen Xinqi and Zhang Zijun, there was a faint white glow flashing on their bodies, so subtle that without his keen senses, he would hardly capture this fleeting moment.

It was this white light that helped them deflect most of the force, allowing them to advance further!

It must be some kind of protective gear, quite magical!

Zhang Zijun's background was unclear to Zhou Heng, but Shen Xinqi obviously had a deep background to obtain such protective gear, suggesting that Zhang Zijun's background might also be substantial.

"Last one!" Zhu Xun pointed to Zhou Heng, his face showing a hint of curiosity; he really wanted to know why Yu Dongcheng valued Zhou Heng.

Not just Zhu Xun, but the other youths were also puzzled, what kind of strength did Zhou Heng possess! Shi Qingfeng wore a sneer, understanding that this was a test of raw power, and no tricks could change that.

Zhou Heng remained the same, a faint smile on his face as he reached the entrance to the corridor.

"Begin!"

He stepped forward, Bang bang, two Copper Men immediately attacked him.

Cloud Flying Step!

Zhou Heng lightly twisted his body, flowing like clouds and water, and swiftly floated past them.

Bang bang bang bang, the Copper Men in the walls launched continuous attacks, but they couldn't stop Zhou Heng's steps, and soon he had walked fifty meters.

"Hmph, it's just that his stepping technique is tricky, but that's all it is, someone's previous experience is proof!" Shi Qingfeng sneered, snorting towards Chang Kang.

"Shi Qingfeng, what did you say?" Chang Kang immediately sprang up, though he was at a disadvantage in the Copper Man Array, he was not at all afraid of fighting Shi Qingfeng.

"Stop quarreling, let's see what that guy is capable of!" Zhang Zijun said, hands clasped behind his back, his tone also carrying defiance.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Zhou Heng began his journey past fifty meters; this was the real test!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Copper Men kept striking out, but the Cloud Flying Step was so miraculous that even in such a tight space, he navigated with ease, as if strolling leisurely in a courtyard.

Sixty meters, seventy meters!

He relentlessly dashed past the Eighth and Ninth Layer of Body Refinement Copper Man Array!

"How is this possible!"

"Without throwing a punch or a palm, just relying on the agility of his movement technique, this is too exaggerated!"

"Hiss! Although the moves of the Copper Men are fixed, with so many of them attacking simultaneously, there are almost no gaps! Doesn't this mean that not even a genuine Ninth Layer Martial Artist could harm him!"

"Humph, it's just the Ninth Layer, the real show is coming up next!" Shi Qingfeng crossed his arms in front of his chest, and although he spoke lightly, his face still revealed a color of jealousy; clearly, Zhou Heng's performance had greatly exceeded his expectations.

"Indeed!" Shen Xinqi and the other two nodded simultaneously; they too couldn't accept that a "weaker" from the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement could match or even surpass them.

At that moment, Zhou Heng continued forward without any hesitation.

The strength and speed of the Copper Men suddenly surged!

Zhou Heng's mind was clear, every move of the Copper Men was within his grasp. With the Cloud Flying Step unfolded, he moved like a Spirit Snake, his body passing by without a leaf stirring.

Missed! Missed! Missed! Missed! Missed!

All the Copper Men repeatedly struck out in vain, only to punch again under the control of the mechanism, engaging in futile efforts.

Seventy-six meters!

Chang Kang's face darkened, his opponent was also relying on movement techniques and was only at the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement, yet he had already surpassed his own limits! To be outdone in his own domain of expertise—that slap was loud!

Eighty meters!

Zhou Heng could not stop, he stepped into the Eleventh Layer of Body Refinement Copper Man Array!

He was somewhat struggling; the Copper Men attacked faster here, requiring him to use more mental effort to grasp the variations of the Copper Men. Otherwise, despite how miraculous the Cloud Flying Step was, facing a barrage of random blows, he couldn't cover every angle!

Eighty-one meters, eighty-two meters, eighty-three meters, eighty-four meters!

He surpassed Shi Qingfeng!

Like Chang Kang, Shi Qingfeng's complexion turned terribly sour.

"How can that guy's movement technique be so miraculous?"

"It seems he might even get past the entire Eleventh Layer of Body Refinement Copper Man Array!"

"God, is he really just at the Seventh Layer of Body Refinement?"

Exclamations burst forth incessantly; by now, everyone had no doubts about Zhou Heng being the last to perform—who had ever seen such a monstrously talented Seventh Layer of Body Refinement!

"Hmph, it's just relying on the mystique of his movement technique, it's not like his real combat power could contend with the Blood Refinement Realm!" Shi Qingfeng stubbornly retorted, yet didn't consider that although he had pushed into eighty-three meters, could it truly mean he could hold a candle to the Tenth or Eleventh Layer?

Shen Xinqi and Zhang Zijun didn't speak; Zhou Heng was nearly approaching their scores, suddenly making their hearts leap.

As geniuses, being surpassed by someone else was absolutely infuriating.

Ninety meters!

A look of absolute fatigue appeared on Zhou Heng's face; while the consumption of True Yuan Force was negligible, the excessive use of mental power was a heavy burden, making him feel an intense desire to just fall over and sleep deeply.

Still not enough!

He suddenly let out a long howl, Cloud Flying Step unfolded again, his Divine Sense swept out, scanning every move of all the Copper Men, plotting a path he could navigate through.

Swish!

He moved like a fish, his body making twists and turns that pushed the limits, dancing on the edge of a knife. Each step he took was perfectly executed, precariously dodging attack after attack, advancing step by step.

Ninety-two meters! Ninety-five meters!

He surpassed everyone!

Zhou Heng did not stop; in terms of points, ninety meters and ninety-nine meters scored the same, both only fetching four points, but his goal was five points!

Everyone's breaths involuntarily held, witnessing a Seventh Layer of Body Refinement surpassing the Twelfth Layer Copper Man Array was truly something to look forward to!

"Impossible! Impossible!" Shi Qingfeng clenched his teeth, he was the least happy to see Zhou Heng stealing the limelight, his abdomen tingling with annoyance!

Ninety-eight meters! Ninety-nine meters! One hundred meters!

Zhou Heng successfully passed through the entire Copper Man Array!

This result was something even Zhu Xun hadn't expected; he was stunned for a while before he declared, "Passed!"

Thus, a total of seven people gained extra points, with Zhou Heng in first place with five points, Shen Xinqi second with four points, Zhang Zijun and Shi Qingfeng tied for fourth with three points, Chang Kang fifth with two points, and the remaining two Eighth Layer of Body Refinement youths each earning one point.

Besides, twenty-three were eliminated and could only leave in despair.

"Follow me, the last test is next!" Zhu Xun looked around at everyone's expressions and strode forward.

Over twenty people hurriedly followed, except for a few like Shen Xinqi, the rest wore expressions of considerable tension; with each test having a fifty percent elimination rate, it was naturally worrisome.
