Chapter-5

Today is the day of the annual inner disciple examination arrived. The exam location was inside a huge underground palace which was specifically constructed to conduct Examinations.

Currently, there were more than twenty thousand people within the main hall of the underground palace, Most of the people there were at the 4th or 5th level of the Spirit realm while we're also a small portion of them were at 6th level of Spirit Realm and they can be considered at the peak of Outer Court of the Lingyun Sect.

Generally with the cultivation of 5th Spirit Realm, one could easily clear the exam but still few disciples will decide to take the exam when they reach 6th Spirit Realm. Because of the fact that they want to take first place as it had several benefits.

Chu Guyu, Chu Feng's brother also passed the inner examination at the age of 12 years and with the cultivation of 5th Spirit Realm.

Last year the one who got the first place was given a 5th Rank Martial Skill, yes fifth rank martial skill.

Moreover, the interesting thing which he had heard from his cousin Chu Yue is that in her school, Azure Dragon school the 5th Rank Martial Skills are only available to the core members of the school.

With just this, one could imagine the level of quality between a second rate and 1st rate school, not just in terms of strength but even in the quality the Lingyun school is way ahead.

The head of the school Yan Yangtian is a 1st Heaven Realm in terms of Martial Cultivation and is regarded as one of the most powerful experts of the current Azure Province.

"Look, isn't that Mu TianYu?"

"Waa, it really is him. He's already at the 6th level of the Spirit rank by the age of thirteen. It seems like the first place in this exam will be him."

In the ocean of people, one young man grabbed people's' attention. To be more precise it was a boy with brownish hairs.

There were thousands of disciples in the outer court and most of them were unknown characters. However, there were still genius figures amount them that elders paid attention to, in which this Mu TianYu was top among all of them.

Two months ago nobody knew about Mu TianYu but he unexpectedly defeated an inner disciple who was also in the 6th level of the Spirit realm. Because of that, his name was widespread and he became the focus of the outer court.

"Hey, have you heard what is the reward this time?"

"Yes! Yes! I have heard the winner will get a cosmos sack this time, moreover, the winner will also get five Spiritual Beads this time."

"What! Really! Spiritual Beads and even one thousand, rewards are very very high."

"Hey, what is this Cosmos Sack? I never heard of it."

"He! He! country bumpkin, I will explain for you-- Cosmos Sack is a storage bag with immense storage capacity that is not affected by weight or size of objects stored within but can not store any kind living organisms including people."

"Really! These times rewards are so huge."

"Yes its because this time winner will not get any kind of Martial Skill like past years."

Chu Feng heard several disciples discussing among themselves and as he heard about 1000 Spiritual Beads a strange light passed through his eyes.

*Silence*

Suddenly, a loud and clear sound echoed and everyone moves their gaze move towards the voice and they saw more dozen silhouettes appear on the high platform in the hall.

Most of them were aged, old people all them saw Inner Sect Elders, with just merely a glance they already noticed every single disciple present.

Suddenly one of the Elder who looked to be in his fifties came forward and spoke "The exam rules are very simple. Enter the gate behind me and come out from the other gate. With that, you pass the exam. The first one to pass the exam will get-----A cosmos sack and a 1000 Spiritual Beads from us as a reward."

"What? Really two rewards, a cosmos sack, and thousand Spiritual Beads?"

"I didn't hear wrong did I?" With those words, the main hall went into chaos and everyone could not remain calm.

To people, Spiritual Beads were priceless treasures but they were also getting a cosmos sack with it which most of them had not even seen before in their whole life.

But for most of the people with 5th Spirit Realm Cultivation, they could only dream about it because they knew that they had no chance of getting those.

However, to the disciples who were aiming to be the first like Chu Feng, they were all eager to give it a try and they got even more excited.

-----------

"Go-------------"

Dozens of feet tall gates slowly opened and all the disciples started rushing inside, Chu Feng also went along with the crowd and entered into a deep cave.

The cave was very vast but it was very dark in there. The vision was extremely low and there were traps that could be triggered at any moment.

*whoosh*

*whoosh*

*whoosh*

But just after going ahead for a hundred meters or so the commotion started as in front of the disciples there endless amounts of arrows formed of Spiritual Energy were shot out from the wall towards the crowds at very high speed and it appeared as if arrows were raining.

They easily injured all the disciples under the 5th Spirit Realm cultivation.

"Ah------------"

"Help--------------"

All sorts of cries echoed but none of the disciples stopped due to which most of them were caught off guard, people still continued forward as nobody wanted to lose. The arrows were becoming denser and denser as the distance was increasing.

Although the arrows were powerful they have something special within their formation due to which they wouldn't kill but the irony was that nobody knew that this special feature.

Because of which all of the disciples started to could dodge them, nobody wanted to take the risk. But the more they become careful, the higher the chances that they will leave behind by the others and lose the chance for the rewards.

In situations like those, Chu Feng with experiences and knowledge of past life decided to distance himself from the crowd becoming he had special power 'Spirit Sense' because of which he had already known when he is the way of an arrow.

As time passed the ranking started to become constant the people who were running at the front were no longer people who came hoping they would become first if they rush things. But now there were strong people such as Mu TianYu and others.

Although they were only a hundred in number none of them those people were ordinary, all of them were below the age of fourteen and the men who were leading were in 6th Spirit Realm.

*phuuuuu*

Suddenly, a cold breeze of wind came to rushing from the front and a dense fog appeared in front of them.

The cave was already dark, and with the fog, it meant that their vision would be even poorer. With that, it also greatly increased the difficulty of dodging the mechanisms moreover Chu Felt felt that the frequency of attacks has been increased by several times.

"Good chance. Now I can take the lead"

Just as everyone was slowing down due to the appearance of fog, Chu Feng secretly rejoiced. He went forward in huge strides, and with a whoosh, his entire body was like a fish dashing with the flow of water, he dashed forward.

*whoosh*

At that time, Mu TianYu and others who were concentrating on dodging the arrows suddenly felt a black shadow rushed flashed past them. Without giving any time for them to react, that person disappeared once again.

"What was that?"

With that, several disciples feel quite a bit of shock. Nobody clearly knew what it was, but one thing was clear that it felt like some other disciple rushed inside.

The person who successfully left everyone behind, Chu Feng, didn't care about them that much as he increased his speed to the maximum.

After that long-running, he didn't feel any fatigue. The Spiritual energy within his body was endless to take and it continuously surged from his dantian.

Not only that but his speed and strength, hearing and vision power all also surpassed the people who were at the same level as him. With just alone with his Spirit Power, Chu Feng was able to pass the test till here.

As he ran with full speed, Chu Feng finally passed through the mechanism stages and exited the dark cave, after a few seconds he arrived in the middle of a wide hall.

At the end of the hall, there was a tall platform made out of stone. On top of the stone, there were several items. It was the cosmos sack that contained a thousand Spiritual Beads.

Seeing those things, Chu Feng was overjoyed but, he didn't rush ahead. Rather, he looked at the stone doors on the side of the hall. He remembered his brother telling him about this place after Chu Guyu himself passed the exam.

"So behind those are the Fierce Beasts?" Chu Feng's mouth curved up in expectation.

He knew that this is the main point of the exam, one must kill at least five Fierce Beasts of rank 4th and one 5th rank

"Open the formations, one disciple has already passed the first step."

Within a mysterious stone room in the underground palace, the Elder from earlier was staring at a disordered stone and astonishment filled his gaze.

*bang*

Suddenly, a heavy noise resounded and the stone doors that locked the Fierce Beasts started to open.

"Let's test my limits." Chu Feng gave devil smirk, after looking at the six beasts, he had already quite experienced in dealing with them. But he had only fought one on one, now is the time to test his boundaries and break through them.

"Oooooh" Chu Feng didn't think about it too much rushed towards them while throwing out his fists in every direction.

However, also at the same time, five of the 4th Rank Beasts decided to surround him and attacked. The terrifying killing intent was enough to make one's entire body tremble.

But Chu Feng did not panic with his experience it was no big deal. He was as vigorous as a monkey, jumping left and right as he went back and forth within the crowd of Fierce Beasts. With merely his one fist he sent all the 4th rank beast to hell.

Compared to Chu Feng they weren't much scarier monsters. Every part of his body was like an indestructible sharp weapon. Despite the rough skin and thick flesh of the Fierce Beasts, they could not withstand a strike from Chu Feng.

*grr*

Suddenly just at that instant the last remaining 5th Rank beast dashed and gave a sharp growl came from Chu Feng's back.

When he turned around to look, he couldn't help but be surprised. The sharp claws of a huge Fierce Beast were heading towards his head.

That huge claw was kind of different as if the beast had compacted all his strength in it. If he got caught in it, then it might cause some fatal injury to him.

*whoosh*

Chu Feng reflexively jumped back and tried to dodge the huge claw but the claw's speed was really too fast. Although Chu Feng's brain dodged the damage, the claws still landed on Chu Feng's chest.

"Hmmm" Chu Feng chuckled few times, the claw attack was only able to tear his clothes but there no sign of scratches on his chest, it felt like he was panicking for nothing.

"Now, Die!"

*clang*

Chu Feng solidly landed a punch on its forehead and finished it in one go. As his steel-like fist collided with beasts chest. The fist's power was so high that it passed through the beast thick body and a huge hole appeared in its chest and its eyes became lifeless.

After looking around with his eyes, Chu Feng leaped on the tall platform. Without even looking at them, he took the cosmos sack and sent the Spiritual Sense inside it he discovered thousand Spiritual Beads inside it.

"He! He! He!" He laughed a few times and opened the huge door with a huge smile on his face, a door was a few meters away from him and it was no ordinary. It was called the Inner Gate by the disciples of the Lingyun school.

As he entered thousands of gazes turned towards him and many people started clapping and cheering after Chu Feng entering through the gate.

Although none of them knew about him still envy and respect could be seen in their eyes.
