Astonishing Movement Technique

15 meters in Ling Void Cross didn't seem anything amazing by itself.

However, comparison with others would reveal its fierceness. At present, among the disciples of Elite Hall, 14.5 meters was the best record.

And that was also a record created by Ling Fei.

In other words, he had broken his own record.

At this moment, everybody was utterly shocked. Ling Fei might be lacking in other aspects, but in movement techniques, he truly was the first of Elite Hall.

"I can't compare with you!"

Ling Yixue opened her bright red lips and helplessly shook her head.

"Senior Apprentice Sister is being polite. I'm only good at movement techniques. As for everything else, I can't even enter Senior Apprentice Sister's eyes!"

Ling Fei proclaimed with a smile. Although he was making modest remarks, his face was filled with excitement.

When gaining face in front of Ling Yixue, why won't he be happy?

"Senior apprentice brother Ling Fei, can't you slow down your progress, and wait for us junior brothers?"

"Hahaha! Everyone can achieve this as long as they work hard. Next is the second event!"

In the second event, Ling Fei gave everybody another stunning visual impact.

He jumped 18 meters high before gracefully landing on the ground. Not only did he look confident and at ease, but his movements were also very stable.

"It's your turn next, Ling Xiao! The speed competition requires two people, so you need to finish the first two events first."

After completing the initial two events, Ling Fei spoke to Ling Xiao with a satisfied smile.

At this moment, everyone's eyes focused on Ling Xiao. However, only disdain and a bit of pity could be found in their gazes.

They took pity on this beggar begging at the roadside.

No one believed that Ling Xiao's movement technique would surpass Ling Fei's, even those who had watched the excitement before.

"I don't need your reminder."

Ling Xiao gently smiled and walked towards the starting line.

Purely in terms of movement technique, he was indeed inferior to Ling Fei. That much was certain.

However, he had cultivated Violent Qi Formula, which could instantly nearly double the effect of his movement technique.

He would have no problem surpassing Ling Fei.

"Humph, putting on an act!"

Upon seeing Ling Xiao indifferently stand on the starting line, everybody felt a little uncomfortable.

"Start!"

Hearing Ling Yixue's voice, Ling Xiao leaped and soared.

At the start of his jump, he didn't use his Violent Qi Formula. This would economize his true qi. After all, there were three events.

He didn't need to be too shocking. It would be enough as long as he exceeded Ling Fei.

"Eh? This kid's movement technique is not bad! Although he has neither Ling Fei's elegance nor confidence, it can be considered quite good."

Ling Yixue frowned. She truly hadn't expected that Ling Xiao would grasp a movement technique to such a level in such a short time.

When Ling Xiao was roughly 12 meters away, he began to fall.

"Hahaha, lost! He lost!"

"As I said earlier, he can't compare to senior apprentice brother Ling Fei!"

"But 12 meters is not bad. It's surprisingly not too shameful!"

However, just when Ling Xiao was about to reach the ground, something suddenly pushed him forward, and he covered four more meters before finally landing.

The scene became quiet as if everyone had turned mute.

"16 meters!"

Ling Yixue was the first to speak. The surprise in her eyes had already changed into astonishment.

What exactly had happened to this Ling Xiao? How had he improved so quickly?

"Did I see it wrong? Was it truly 16 meters?"

"If it's right, then what exactly happened to this kid? Just now, he suddenly flew several extra meters as his path was about to end!"

"Cheating!"

Ling Fei suddenly shouted.

"There was no cheating."

Ling Yixue shook her head and said, "As a disciple of the Ling Clan, haven't you heard about the secret technique <Violent Qi Formula>? It's in the Library Pavilion."

Ling Fei had naturally heard of <Violent Qi Formula>. However, cultivating this secret technique had always been harder than cultivating other merit laws. It was very difficult to understand its key points.

He had never even thought that Ling Xiao would have actually learned it.

Ling Fei was not convinced, but he was powerless to complain. Although he trembled in anger, he had to admit defeat.

"The second event: Ascending the Stairway to Heaven!"

Ling Xiao's movement technique lacked the unrestrained elegance of Ling Fei's, but it was undeniably pragmatic.

Like before, he used Violent Qi Formula just as his ascension slowed at roughly twelve meters in the air.

In the end, he was able to reach 20 meters.

"Second event; Ling Xiao's victory!"

Ling Xiao actually won both Ling Void Cross and Ascending the Stairway to Heaven.

This was too surprising. Now, no one dared to mock or doubt Ling Xiao's movement technique.

Although his movement technique was superficially unsightly, it was not at all weak.

"Do you still want to compete in the third event, senior apprentice brother Ling Fei?"

With a faint smile, Ling Xiao glanced at Ling Fei's purpling-red face.

"Compete!? Why would I not compete! A competition between movement techniques surely stresses speed!"

Ling Fei practically howled out his words.

"Okay, I originally wanted to give you some face, but since you clearly don't want it, forget about it." Ling Xiao said.

"Stop shedding crocodile tears! I refuse to believe that you can win the third event too!"

Ling Fei was certain. Now, after his previous showing and his double victories, Ling Xiao's true qi must have been nearly exhausted. He absolutely couldn't endure competing at his best in the third event.

If he could easily beat Ling Xiao in the third event, he could save a lot of face despite losing the competition overall. He could even seize the chance to humiliate Ling Xiao.

"But there will be no profit. I've already won, so I don't want to accompany you and waste my time."

Originally, Ling Xiao had just wanted to take the doctor to treat his grandfather. However, he had been stuck outside his courtyard for almost an hour.

If he couldn't reap any benefits, then he truly didn't want to compete.

"I promise that if you can win again, I will pay the entire costs of your grandfather's treatment!"

Ling Fei had no choice but to declare this. Otherwise, Ling Xiao might truly refuse to compete. Then, Ling Fei would be unable to shamelessly force him to race or risk losing even more face today.

"No need. I have the money."

If it were the past, Ling Xiao might have agreed to this condition, but now, he truly didn't care about a few silvers.

"Then, what do you want?" shouted Ling Fei.

"A breakthrough pill!"

Ling Xiao planned to breakthrough to at least Rank Three Martial Vein before the annual competition, so this pill was absolutely necessary.

"That is too much!"

"Yeah, your demands are too high! What idiot would take out a breakthrough pill in a bet?"

"Well, it also cannot be said to be too outrageous. After all, Ling Xiao has already won two out of the three events, so he has already won the entire competition. He doesn't actually need to proceed with the third event."

Some people had good sense, making Ling Xiao have a bit of hope for this snobbish clan.

"Unwilling to bet? Then, forget it!"

Ling Xiao shrugged and beckoned for the doctor, preparing to leave.

"Fine! I will promise it to you!" Ling Fei yelled.

"Senior apprentice brother Ling Fei, don't be impulsive!"

"Yea, senior apprentice brother Ling Fei! It's not worth it!"

"Even you all don't believe in me?"

Now, Ling Fei's complexion deteriorated even further. From the crowd's comments, he realized that their once complete confidence in him had turned into doubt. He had truly lost all his face.

Since this was the case, he had no choice but to compete in the third event to recover his lost face.

"Senior apprentice sister Ling Yixue, please be the witness! These peoples' promises are like farts. I don't dare to easily believe in them." Ling Xiao glanced at Ling Yixue before idly commenting.

"Okay, if he doesn't give it to you, I will pay you in his place."

Now, Ling Yixue was also very interested in Ling Xiao's movement technique, so she too wanted to keep watching.
