The woman rarely gave Zheng Shi yi a glare, a hint of satisfaction on her face: "It's just the tenth round, of course I have it too..."
Zheng Shi yi's face showed a hint of surprise: "Hehe, I thought only I had a perfect tenth round, but it turns out..."
"Full?" The woman's tone was clearly not as cold as usual, her voice rising several octaves.
Tenth round! There are geniuses in this world who can achieve it! A flawless tenth round without any flaws in the foundation?
The woman had never heard of anyone filling the tenth spirit wheel! Perhaps there were such geniuses in the world, but... at least she had never heard of it!
Not only did this kid fill it, but he filled it with just ten thousand soul stones. If this news got out, he would become the focus of all the sects!
That's a perfect tenth round! Even the great sects would be very interested, right?
"No wonder he could recover his spirit energy so quickly in such a short time. This perfect tenth round is indeed powerful."
No matter how calm the woman was before, she lost that calmness after this moment, paying close attention to Zheng Shi yi's every move.
Zheng Shi yi was amazed at the tenth spirit wheel's recovery speed. A light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he had an idea: "The tenth spirit wheel can double the speed of my spirit energy recovery."
"If I only use the spirit energy from the first nine spirit wheels in my daily activities and use the tenth spirit wheel to recover, would I have a more sustained combat ability than other ninth-round Qi Wheel Realm cultivators?"
With this thought, Zheng Shi yi did not fully utilize all ten spirit wheels but only used the first nine.
He wildly performed the "Eight Desolate Steps" and the "Thunder Fist."
The spirit energy in his body was rapidly depleting, but the tenth spirit wheel was recovering at a speed that was not inferior to the depletion rate.
"This... is too insane!" The speed of spirit energy replenishment kept up with the speed of depletion.
Would he still need to worry about spirit energy depletion in future battles?
One round, two rounds... Zheng Shi yi performed over two hundred rounds before stopping.
The woman watched this scene, almost going crazy. She had never seen anyone like Zheng Shi yi, who could release spirit energy so intensely without a spirit spring, and whose spirit energy not only showed no signs of depletion but even increased.
She had to admit the power of the tenth spirit wheel, but she also had to marvel at Zheng Shi yi's high comprehension!
The improvement in strength naturally made Zheng Shi yi think deeper and explore further.
He leaped into the lake, being sucked into the vortex. Ignoring the tearing force of the vortex on his body, he rapidly descended, wanting to explore deeper.
However, no matter how fast his soul seed repaired his body and how fast the tenth spirit wheel replenished his spirit energy, he still could not withstand the tearing force.
If he continued to descend, he would surely perish at the bottom of the lake. He had to give up this idea and awkwardly jumped out of the water.
The woman regained her previous calmness and said to Zheng Shi yi, "Since you have understood the tenth round, go to the Martial Arts Pavilion and learn that cultivation technique."
Zheng Shi yi nodded excitedly, turned around, and took a few steps before stopping. He turned to the woman and said, "It's actually quite good here. When I cultivate outside, people always come to cause trouble. Here, no one disturbs me."
"I really like it here." Zheng Shi yi smiled at the woman and leaped into the lake.
The woman looked at the place where Zheng Shi yi left, feeling a bit lost, and then closed her eyes.
Zheng Shi yi, diving into the water, thought to himself that this place was indeed quiet and suitable for cultivation. It would be great if he could bring Wu Dong and Su Jingdan here.
After enduring the tearing force in the vortex, Zheng Shi yi was blasted out of the water with a "peng."
More than twenty people were walking away from the lake. The explosion from the lake made them stop and turn around, all of them staring at the lake with puzzled looks.
The disciple at the back, wearing a green robe and holding a long sword with a red tassel swaying in the wind, had a thin face and high cheekbones.
Who else could it be but Tian Kun, who had a conflict with Zheng Shi yi at the Life and Death Platform and then left in anger after Zheng Shi yi's outstanding performance?
Next to him stood a fat man, who had recently witnessed Zheng Shi yi using soul stones to buy things at a general store and discovered that Zheng Shi yi had a spatial Swallowing Heaven Bag.
After Zheng Shi yi left, he hurriedly told Tian Kun about it. Tian Kun had already wanted to deal with Zheng Shi yi, and hearing that Zheng Shi yi was so wealthy, he would not let him go.
Hearing this, Tian Kun gathered all the little brothers he could! Based on the clues provided by the fat man, he had his little brothers search the area for days without any results.
Tian Kun was extremely angry, thinking the fat man was playing a trick on him. Before Zheng Shi yi appeared, he even scolded the fat man.
The fat man, who was scolded, was full of grievances. Zheng Shi yi had clearly disappeared in this area, so why couldn't they find him after searching for so long? Could he have vanished?
Zheng Shi yi's appearance wiped away the fat man's worries, and he shouted in joy, "Brother Kun, that kid is over there, over there!"
Tian Kun and his little brothers' pupils contracted, recognizing the figure emerging from the water as Zheng Shi yi.
"Good kid, you made us search so hard!" Tian Kun and his little brothers had been searching for Zheng Shi yi in this area for days, and they were naturally furious. They quickly rushed to Zheng Shi yi.
Tian Kun walked forward slowly and raised his hand, pointing at Zheng Shi yi, "Where's the spatial bag?"
The little brothers next to Tian Kun chimed in, "Kid, did you hear that? If you don't want to die, give the stuff to Brother Kun."
Zheng Shi yi looked at everyone as if they were fools. It seemed... these idiots didn't know he was already at the tenth round! In the entire Qi Wheel Realm, he was truly invincible now! Even without using the Eight Desolate Steps, he was truly invincible!
"In my opinion, those who can make it into the top ten of the风云榜 (Feng Yun Bang) are all geniuses with exceptional talent and intelligence," Zheng Shi yi said calmly. "I didn't expect there would be an idiot like you! Daring to rob me?"
"Being weak in strength, do you think numbers will help? Don't you investigate someone's background before causing trouble?"
Zheng Shi yi was curious. Didn't these people know to gather more information about him? A simple investigation would reveal his performance in the three trials. They should know he's not someone to be messed with. Are these people really that stupid, or are they just too confident?
Tian Kun, feeling Zheng Shi yi's almost mocking gaze, felt a sharp pain in his heart! Since the last time he watched Zheng Shi yi's life-and-death battle with Zheng Song, he knew this newcomer would be a threat to him in the future. That's why he brought more people this time to deal with him once and for all!
As for... what Zheng Shi yi's trump card was? Tian Kun sneered, this kid probably thinks he can run away and challenge the three trials to cause trouble for him? Challenge the three trials? The prerequisite is that you need to be alive to reach the Hall of the Three Trials!
The little brother next to Tian Kun clenched his fists and shouted at Zheng Shi yi, "You're about to die, and you still have the nerve to insult Brother Kun as an idiot!"
"Do you think you're someone special? Do you need to investigate someone's background before dealing with them? Someone who hasn't even made it to the Feng Yun Bang, has the right to challenge Brother Kun?"
"Didn't you know that Brother Kun now has the strength to challenge the ninth rank?"
The little brothers' praise made Tian Kun proudly cross his arms. Indeed, he had the strength to challenge the ninth rank of the Feng Yun Bang. After dealing with Zheng Shi yi, he would naturally challenge the ninth rank.
Zheng Shi yi glanced at them indifferently and smiled, "Is the ninth rank of the Feng Yun Bang that powerful? Powerful enough to pass the three trials?"
"The ninth rank of the Feng Yun Bang isn't powerful? How stupid are you? There are hundreds of thousands of outer sect disciples, and only a few can make it into the top nine. Isn't that powerful?"
"You even ask such a stupid question. Is your brain kicked by a donkey or squeezed by a door?"
"Also, the ranking on the Feng Yun Bang has nothing to do with the Hall of the Three Trials. Not even the top ten of the inner sect's Mountain and River List can pass."
"You asking such an extremely stupid question, I wonder how the sect even accepted a donkey like you."
Feng Yun Bang!
For the outer sect disciples of the Xuanming Sect, this was a sacred place!
It only had one hundred positions.
Any outer sect disciple who could secure one of these positions was seen as incredibly powerful by their peers!
The top ten of the Feng Yun Bang? That was the true bridge and ladder to becoming an inner sect disciple! They were like gods, towering above all outer sect disciples!
The little brother in front of Tian Kun looked at Zheng Shi yi as if he were a fool.
Tian Kun's lips curled into a smirk, and he stroked his chin, coldly saying, "Zheng Shi yi! The one who successfully challenged the three trials! Do you really think I didn't investigate you?"
"I can't pass the three trials, but... so what?"
"Can passing the three trials give you the strength to kill Yu Wei? No!"
"Passing the three trials only means... you have invincible strength at your current realm."
Tian Kun looked at Zheng Shi yi with disdain and spread his hands to his little brothers, who all wore evil smiles, "The difference in cultivation realms isn't something you can overcome just because you passed the three trials."
Everyone became more excited, and their gazes became more intense as they looked at Zheng Shi yi: "Brother Kun, let's not waste time with this kid. We don't want more people to discover him."
"By then, others might want to snatch the Swallowing Heaven Bag from us. Since no one is around, we can kill him and throw him into the Death Abyss. No one will know we killed him."
"Even if someone sees us kill him and throw his body into the Death Abyss, we can deny it. The sect won't send people to retrieve his body!"
The Death Abyss was extremely dangerous. Those who entered rarely came out alive. These people were confident that by killing Zheng Shi yi and throwing him into the Death Abyss, they could escape punishment.
Tian Kun nodded confidently, pointing to the Death Abyss behind him, "I don't want to make things difficult for you. Hand over the Swallowing Heaven Bag... and I'll let you go."
"Otherwise, I'll throw you into the abyss..."
Zheng Shi yi sighed and shook his head. What kind of ranking is the Feng Yun Bang? It can make people so confident?
