Strange discovery

[Updated]  [Rewritten]

______ ____ ___ _

In the test arena.

Everyone was running from wild beasts. They were running for their dear life.

The elder Ye Heng was observing them carefully, in case he might not be able to see test takers who may be severely injured.

Everyone was only dodging or running, since there was no other way.

"Nobody noticed it yet, huh?" The elder Ye Heng said in a sarcastic voice.

"Let's see some talent who I can choose…"

His eyes started to wander around hoping to find someone interesting.

He saw a little boy and a girl (woman) running away while helping each other.

"They are good, but not talented enough..."

"Hmm… let's look around a bit…"

Suddenly his eyes stopped in one direction and he smiled mysteriously.

"That kid sure is a talent!"

He saw a boy that was easily dodging monsters, his speed was very fast surpassing the other examinees.

"He is dodging and running from monsters easily... And he seems like he hadn't even tired!"

Then suddenly that boy looked at him. His face was serious and his eyes cold.

"His serious face says he is confident with himself? Or is he saying is this all you got?" Elder Ye Heng tried to guess.

"Hohoho, I like that kid. I will take that kid as my disciple if he passes the exam!" He laughed out loud. "But, let's see first how will he pass the test..."

"I have high expectations for you kid!"

* * * * * * * * *

Contrary to the elder's thoughts that kid was actually thinking the opposite.

Run, run, dodge, run… Damnt it!

Why is it so difficult?

Why there are a lot of monsters?

Curse to the one who planned this exam!

He was cursing internally as he was doing what everyone was doing, dodging, dodging, and running.

At this moment, his sixth sense kicked in and he bowed down while running.

~Swish!

Something flew off from where his head was standing.

He was fortunate to sense it.

"That was… near…It could have been the end of me..."

And he started to think about the test or something to waste time.

The hell, my dad said the exam would be a piece of cake!

Or… did he fool me? And again?

Last time he said my fiancé was beautiful and a charming girl! So I agreed to meet with the girl about the engagement...

But… I don't even wanna remember it now...

I shouldn't have believed him again…

~Swish!

He jumped upwards and performed a backflip.

Hell even with my high cultivation I'm having trouble dodging their attacks...

Then he looked at the elder with a serious face.

He is probably the one who is responsible for all of this…

I would kick you off from there and pay you back right now if I could…

~Swish!

He dodged to his left side.

Then he shifted his focus to running again.

Huh~ I'm exhausted. I can only stand for a minute. I need to think of something Huh?

Suddenly he saw a fatty examinee who was running away from a 2-grade wild beast.

Coincidentally, the beast was the infamous Rolling Fat Bear.

It was named Fat because it somehow looked like a bear but it was seriously fat.

It could kill you if it lays on top of you without the protection of spirit power.

Rolling Fat Bear was infamous for its slow speed.

The thing that made it so infamous was that the Rolling Fat Bear could suddenly improve his speed as it would suddenly start to roll and accelerate.

"What the hell?"

He said out loud seeing this situation.

"Why am I running away from tons of beasts and nearly all of them are powerful?!"

"While that boy is only running away from a one and the utterly weak beast!"

Suddenly The Rolling Fat Beat started rolling.

{Is that would be a tortoise's speed…} He thought looking at the beast's speed.

"Huh? Wait a minute?"

"Isn't Rolling Fat Bear fast when it's rolling?"

"Why the hell is it even slower before now? Or is there some secret?"

"I know it!"

His spirits were high, he started to run towards that fat boy.

* * * * * * * * *

The fat boy was running behind other cultivators hoping to seek protection from them.

"Huh-huh!"

"Why did I take this test?"

"It is so difficult to run…"

"Others are running fast…"

"I missed my food…"

"I wanna go home!"

He collapsed to the ground. He tried to stand up but he was dead tired. He didn't know what to do.

"I will probably be dead…" He thought depressed.

"Dead..." He spoke dejectedly and suddenly exclaimed as an idea came to his mind."Yes!"

"I will play dead!"

So he didn't do anything and just continued to lie down.

He opened his eyes to check if there was a beast that was around him.

Maybe he jinxed it he suddenly saw a wild beast.

That beast was looking around searching for prey.

"Don't look in my direction!"

"Don't look at me…" He hoped the beast wouldn't turn to his side.

Thankfully the beast started to leave.

"Finally it left…"

"I hope nothing will happen…"

The beast suddenly curled up and started rolling towards him, coming to his thoughts true, it hadn't really left.

"Oh no! I will be really dead if it won't stop."

"Stop…"

"Stop!"

But the beast didn't stop.

"I will run…"

"Ughh…"

"It is difficult to stand up."

He stand up barely and saw the beast was one meter away from him.

"Sh*t!"

He screamed for his life and started running…

He ran…

Beast chased….

He ran…

He ran with all his strength...

Beast also stand up and its speed also improved…

He ran and shouted for help…

But after not getting the help he realized that everybody need help…

He ran again…

Until…

"Hey fatty, stop!"

He heard his savior's voice.

Huan and Xu Luli were having a difficult time running from the beasts.

They were like the other participants but their situation was better than theirs.

{My recent breakthrough is actually helping me here...} Huan thought while running.

"Even if I can't use my spirit power, my physical abilities improved. I also gained a little experience after fighting with Underground Blue Python!"

"Be careful!" Xu Luli shouted and pushed Huan to the side. Then she also jumped to his side.

"Be careful. You will fail the test if you are daydreaming like this."

"Ok, Big Sister…" Huan replied with an embarrassed smile.

Then they looked at the thing that attacked them. "Isn't this a spirit beast?!"

Huan shouted after seeing the beast that attacked them.

{I nearly died fighting a 5th-grade wild beast. While this beast has evolved into a spirit beast.} He thought.

"Huan, run with all your might…" Xu Luli shielded Huan and told him to flee. "This beast is powerful. This is the White Eye Gorilla!"

"It is ferocious and it has a very powerful physique. We aren't a match to it."

"No! Big Sister! I can fight!" Huan protested.

"No. We can't use our spirit power. We will probably die if we fight." Xu Luli siad solemnly. "I will distract it and run and it follows me. Then you should run away in another direction. Understand?"

Their relationship was a lot better right now. Huan could easily call Xu Luli 'Big Sister' and Xu Luli didn't reject it or simply didn't think that much about it.

So Huan didn't want to leave her in danger.

"I will fight with you. You rescued me twice but I won't be rescued again…" Huan spoke in a serious tone looking at Xu Luli

"Ok…" Xu Luli replied as she understood it would be better if they worked together.

Suddenly they heard a loud voice a little far from them.

"Everyone! Attention! Listen to us!"

Huan and Xu Luli looked at the commotion and saw two examinees shouting at the crowd. One was a fatty while the other one was a young man.

"Who are those?"

"What are they saying?"

"Listen, People!" The young man's voice echoed. "There is a secret we didn't realize till now. It is..."
