Ninth In the World

Several martial arts students from other classes were standing on the edge of the Fairy Square, looking enviously at the elite class students about to depart.

The ultimate goal of every student who entered the Fairy Planet’s Institute of Martial Arts was to go to the Fairy Planet.

Even though this was very dangerous, there were also many opportunities one could take advantage of. Almost everyone who had entered the Connate had been to the Fairy Planet.

Besides, some scholars and pessimistic experts estimated that sooner or later the fairy beasts would break through the protective wall of the Fairy Square. Once the monsters broke through the wall, everyone on the Fairy Square would die.

Some people believed that the monsters did not have lower intelligence than humans and would eventually get to Earth one day. If those monsters really reached the Earth, the consequences would be disastrous and human beings would most likely face extinction.

Some people had proposed pushing the Fairy Planet out of the solar system, but such an idea was not feasible. The Fairy Planet was wrapped inside an immeasurable protective array, so transferring it out of the solar system was just a fool’s dream.

Being able to enter the Fairy Planet earlier and improve one’s cultivation level would help one survive in case such a disaster occurred in the future. This was what all the students who entered the Institute of Martial Arts believed.

“The test trial will last a month this time. I wish you all an enriching experience. Now open the protective gate of the Fairy Square and enter the Fairy Planet,” Zeng Dongling said with a wave of his hand.

A green line suddenly appeared on the ground of the Fairy Square. Yu Jie and Wang Chuantian walked in the front and back respectively, while the connate expert called Wu Cheng led the path as he followed the green line out of the Fairy Square.

Half an hour later, everyone could hear the sound of their own footsteps, as well as the monsters roaring in the distance.

The students who were the most nervous took out their weapons and held them in their hands. Most of them owned long sabers, swords and rifles.

Perhaps the long saber was the most lethal weapon, as it was very good at slashing. Almost half the students were using long sabers.

“What do you think of my weapon, Di Jiu?” Although Pang Fan’s cultivation level was lower than everyone else’s, in comparison to the many nervous students, he seemed too thick to sense the tension around him.

Pang Fan took out a saber longer than a meter. Appearance-wise, his saber was 10 times better than Di Jiu’s kitchen knife.

Although Di Jiu did not know much about weapons, when Pang Fan took out his long saber, he could tell that it had cost a lot of money.

“It seems good. Why have you been hiding it so far?” Di Jiu said honestly. Pang Fan’s saber could naturally not compare to his kitchen knife, but it certainly looked much better.

“Ha ha! I did not want to bruise your ego. Fortunately, your ability to withstand ego strikes is really powerful. You seem unaffected by my treasured saber.” Pang Fan laughed as he held his cherished saber in his hand.

Then, he unconsciously looked at the long kitchen knife hanging by Di Jiu’s waist. He silently thought that he would rather die than use such an ugly knife.

“Ah…” Di Jiu had no time to answer. He suddenly screamed, shocking everyone carefully walking around him.

“He Wei has been bitten by a snake!” a student immediately called out.

“What happened?” Wang Chuantian only had to take two steps to reach the student’s side. A half-meter-long spotted snake had bit the student’s calf.

Wang Chuantian pulled out his saber and tried to strike.

“Don’t move!” Wu Cheng grabbed the handle of Wang Chuantian’s saber. Wang Chuantian felt like the saber in his hand was being held back. Suddenly, he could no longer move it.

Wang Chuantian was shocked. He was a late-stage Earth Tier Warrior, so he knew that there was a gap to the connate realm. However, he had not expected the gap to be so big.

If a supreme-level expert attacked him, given his strength, he would never be able to restrain his opponent’s saber.

However, it was not that difficult to grab the saber handle of an Earth-Tier expert.

Wu Cheng’s move had given everyone a more intuitive understanding of a connate expert’s abilities. However, everyone quickly turned their attention back to He Wei. The snake had not let go of his leg. His face had already turned pale, and he was breathing kind of hard.

“Vice Principal Wu, He Wei has been bitten by a snake. We must kill the snake quickly,” Yu Jie, who had also run over, said anxiously. She did not understand why Vice President Wu would not allow Wang Chuantian to kill the snake.

When Di Jiu saw the snake biting He Wei’s calf, he realized that Wu Cheng was not wrong.

This snake, which was called a seven-color spot, was several times more poisonous than the snake that had bitten Yu Mu. There were seven kinds of markings on a seven-color spot. Although these markings were not arranged in a beautiful or horrifying pattern, its appearance made most people feel uncomfortable.

When the seven-color spot bit someone, it would not let go until the person in question was dead. If the snake was killed while biting the person, its poison would immediately rush into the heart of the victim, causing it to die on the spot.

“I’ll do it.” Wu Cheng raised his hand and hit He Tai’s calf. A powerful force shocked the seven-color spot, making it loosen its hold. Wu Cheng did not wait for the snake to fall to the ground. He immediately slashed it down with Palm Saber Qi.

The seven-color spot, which was beheaded by Wu Cheng, died after a few tumbles on the ground. Meanwhile, He Tai was comatose.

Wu Cheng grabbed a bottle and placed a pill in He Tai’s mouth. As he was about to talk, a roar filled with killing intent was heard from afar. The voice seemed to be approaching them, accompanied by the sound of a roar.

“Go! Just speed up and follow me,” Wu Cheng said. He did not take the original road. Instead, he walked to the side.

Wang Chuantian quickly picked up He Tai and said, “Everyone must leave as soon as possible. Just follow Vice Principal Wu. Pang Fan, you help carry He Tai’s bag!”
