Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1284

Chapter 1284: Chapter 665: Breaking Finesse with Strength

"Qing Feng, my young friend."

The examiner transmitted his voice.

"No matter what secrets you hold, I shall not inquire for now. But the waters run deep in the Holy Land, take care of yourself."

Gu Sheng’s heart tightened slightly, knowing that this senior might have already noticed some clues.

He nodded calmly, but inwardly remained vigilant.

"Gu Sheng! These scoundrels are too arrogant!"

Ling Xiao’s voice suddenly exploded in his mind, full of suppressed anger.

"Once the limelight passes, I’ll certainly teach them a lesson!"

Gu Sheng glanced over to see Ling Xiao standing not far away, his handsome face slightly twisted with anger.

"Don’t be impulsive."

Gu Sheng replied through transmitted voice.

"Our goal is not them."

"Hmph!"

Ling Xiao snorted coldly.

"Didn’t you hear what they just said? After the competition, they’ll make you regret it! Do they really think we’re easy pickings?"

Gu Sheng remained silent.

He did hear those threats, even sensing a few divine senses filled with killing intent locked onto him.

If it were in the past, he would have already...

"Gu Sheng."

Ling Xiao’s tone suddenly turned serious.

"We endure for the greater cause, but not to be trampled on. If you keep retreating, they’ll only push further."

Gu Sheng’s eyes flickered, a string deep within him gently stirred.

Yes, when did he, Gu Sheng, become so cautious and fearful?

Just then, a cold voice pierced his ear.

"Qing Feng, don’t think that being protected by the examiner means you’re safe. Let’s see who can shield you after the competition ends!"

Following the voice, Gu Sheng saw that burly Holy Land disciple glaring at him as if he were a dead man walking.

"I am unfamiliar with you. Why target me?"

Gu Sheng questioned back through transmitted voice.

"Why?"

The other sneered.

"What makes a nobody like you think you can overshadow our Holy Land? How dare you speak to me with such attitude?"

Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with a cold light.

So that’s it. It’s merely jealousy and arrogance at play.

"Fine, very well."

Gu Sheng suddenly laughed, a smile that made the burly disciple’s heart inexplicably tremble.

"I’ll remember this."

With that, Gu Sheng ended the transmission and ignored the other party, though the cold glint in his eyes lingered.

Ling Xiao keenly sensed Gu Sheng’s change.

"Have you figured it out?"

"Yes."

Gu Sheng nodded lightly, his tone eerily calm.

"Wait for the third round."

Just three simple words, yet they made Ling Xiao’s eyes light up with intensity.

He knew Gu Sheng too well; when someone who was usually gentle and composed spoke in such a tone, it often meant that someone was going to be in serious trouble.

The examination continued, with cultivators passing through the array test one after another.

Occasionally, someone squeezed into the top ten, causing a round of cheers.

Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao’s rankings remained unshakably firm, no one could threaten them.
