"So this is what the trial is like?"
"Now that sounds rather interesting. Chu Feng, let this Queen take him on."
Seeing the menacing figure approaching with clear hostile intent, Eggy was thrilled, her excitement barely contained.
"My Queen, if you want to stretch your legs, you'll probably have to wait for the next round of the trial," Chu Feng said.
"No! Absolutely not! This Queen is about to die of boredom. Leave this one to me — let me out already. I want to stretch my muscles," Eggy protested.
"My Queen, it's not that I don't want to let you out. It's that I can't open the Spirit Gate. Here… although I can communicate with you normally, I still can't use barrier techniques," Chu Feng explained.
"Is that really how it works? How boring. Then… be careful. Don't get careless."
Upon learning the reason, Eggy dropped the matter — instead, she offered Chu Feng a word of caution.
"My Queen, just relax. Don't you know me by now? I never get careless, no matter who I'm facing."
With those words, Chu Feng launched a palm strike.
Instantly, martial force surged and coalesced into a colossal hand, hurtling toward the figure that was charging at him.
The figure, which had been wearing a sinister grin as it bore down with clear hostile intent, showed visible panic the moment Chu Feng struck. Without a word, it turned and fled.
But it never stood a chance. The martial force palm moved with terrifying speed, arriving in the blink of an eye. Like a human swatting an ant, it smashed the figure to pieces with effortless ease.
"That was it? This trial can't possibly be that simple."
Seeing how effortlessly Chu Feng had obliterated the figure, Eggy was somewhat surprised.
"Of course it won't be that simple."
Chu Feng's eyes showed no trace of relaxation. Instead, he turned to look behind him.
Because at that moment, two more figures had appeared behind him.
These two figures also bore humanoid faces, though they looked nothing like the first one. Although all three were at the rank six Martial Emperor level, these two clearly radiated a far stronger aura. Moreover, each of them gripped a weapon — half-step Emperor Weapons.
BOOM— Space trembled. Dazzling martial force erupted from Chu Feng's palm like a cascading wave of brilliance, forming into a colossal hand and smashing toward the two.
It was the same technique Chu Feng had used to annihilate the first figure.
But these two showed no fear whatsoever in the face of Chu Feng's attack.
They swung their half-step Emperor Weapons, and two crescent-shaped blades of light shot skyward, slashing Chu Feng's giant martial force hand to shreds.
Even though these two were also at the rank six Martial Emperor level, their strength far surpassed the first one.
Sssshhhh—
