Chapter 133 Fishing in troubled waters
"This is the testing venue. It's quite spacious, and although there are many people, it doesn't feel crowded."
Looking around at the countless people, Lu Yunshi observed them carefully. The others seemed to be observing as well. Most of them were students in the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage, while there were very few in the middle and late stages.
However, Lu Yunshi soon discovered that the students in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm were now intentionally or unintentionally starting to approach him.
That's right. The best approach is to kick out the strong ones first, and then let the rest fight amongst themselves. Otherwise, if there's a chaotic battle, probably none of the weaker early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators will be able to advance.
Moreover, among the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, it is still unknown whether there are any exceptionally strong individuals.
Ok?
Lu Yunshi frowned slightly, discovering more. Although the students in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm began to band together, they were still divided into several large groups, with different races forming their own groups.
In other words, the cooperation among the students in Naling in the early days was not very close.
'Well, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.'
Lu Yunshi quickly made a decision, slowly shifting his position to the very end of the group of early-stage human cultivators.
Okay, that's good. You guys go first, I'll cover you from behind.
"Ow!"
Without any warning, a member of the demon race at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm let out a wild roar, his originally humanoid appearance turned into a beast, and his aura suddenly became violent.
This howl ignited the flames of battle, and everyone rushed forward, charging towards the enemy they had already identified.
Lu Yunshi blinked and slowly strolled around the arena, not actively participating in any battles, but silently looking for an opportunity.
There's no need to pay attention to cultivators in the early stages of Spirit Absorption yet, as they are temporary allies.
The cultivators at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm are too powerful and have too much experience, making it difficult to do anything to them.
Therefore, cultivators at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm became the targets of Lu Yunshi's sneak attacks and manipulations.
Whenever Lu Yunshi saw a mid-stage Naling being besieged by a Naling early-stage Naling, regardless of their race, he would kindly offer them arrows to increase the difficulty and help his good comrade-in-arms take down the enemy. In the end, he would leave without a trace, concealing his merits and fame.
That's right, he's the kind of good person who does good deeds without seeking recognition.
Fortunately, everyone in this arena has corresponding protection. As long as the injury you suffer is fatal or will make you lose the ability to fight, it will be automatically triggered and you will be teleported out. Otherwise, Lu Yunshi would really have a hard time hiding and attacking people from the shadows.
As for whether anyone noticed Lu Yunshi?
Of course there are, like right now.
"Hello, handsome young man, and then... goodbye."
A demon woman at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm suddenly appeared behind Lu Yunshi. Her soft yet piercing voice reached Lu Yunshi's ears, and she then ordered him to leave the scene.
But when the demon woman raised her hand to wave, she suddenly realized that her movements were incredibly slow.
"So heavy!" The demon woman frowned. Lu Yunshi, who was originally within reach, had run more than ten meters away. She showed her anger and her spiritual energy burst out fiercely, directly breaking through the gravity around her.
Then, the demon woman moved her feet and discovered the gravity rune under her feet.
"A mere trick!" the demon woman scoffed, stomping the talisman to pieces before quickly giving chase. Seeing this, Lu Yunshi didn't fight back, but instead shifted his feet repeatedly, managing to avoid being caught. However, the demon woman's speed kept closing in, and it seemed she was about to capture him.
"Caught."
Seeing Lu Yunshi right in front of her, the demon woman curled up her lips, leaped into the air, and prepared to strike him with her palm.
Just then, several figures suddenly appeared and stopped the demon woman.
"Wait, what's going on?" The demon woman quickly stopped and retreated, her eyes filled with confusion.
Goodbye, young lady from the demon race.
Lu Yunshi blinked, quickly retreated behind the crowd, raised his hand to draw his bow, and the arrow shot through the air, having a huge impact on the demon woman who was being ganged up on and struggling in just a few breaths.
They quickly helped several human cultivators send the demon woman away.
The people who helped Lu Yunshi stop the demon woman had nothing to do with him; it was just that Lu Yunshi happened to bring the demon woman to them when they had finished dealing with one enemy and were looking for a new one.
"As expected, for a squishy marksman like me, it's best to stay in the back and sneak around..."
As Lu Yunshi was muttering to himself, a gust of wind suddenly swept in from the left, and the wild and violent aura of the demon race appeared, and there was more than one of them.
The two demons, both at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, were indeed from different races, and both were prepared to fight any opponent who was also at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, hoping to find an opportunity to do so.
At this moment, if a human in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm were to encounter him, he would most likely not make a move.
Turning his head, he realized that given the distance and the opponent's speed, he didn't have time to draw his bow and shoot. Helpless, Lu Yunshi could only retract his longbow, then clench his fists, channel his spiritual energy into them, take a step back, and then slam his fist down.
boom!
The spiritual energy spiraled along his fist, and the moment Lu Yunshi's fist made contact with the demon cultivator's head, it created a loud bang, slamming him firmly to the ground.
At that very moment, another demonic beast attacked from the side. Lu Yunshi didn't even raise his eyes, tilting his head to dodge the demonic cultivator's fist, and then struck him on the back with an elbow.
A painful howl was heard, and Lu Yunshi quickly turned around and threw a punch, then took two steps back, his movements swift.
He drew his bow and fired two arrows simultaneously, successfully eliminating his two opponents.
"Phew~ They're all so strong, my hands are sore from typing."
Wiping non-existent sweat from his forehead, Lu Yunshi sighed a couple of times, prepared to continue firing hidden arrows, drew his bow again, and aimed.
"what?"
Lu Yunshi noticed that a beautiful demon girl was weaving among several burly men, her moves fierce.
This beautiful demon girl has very few beast-like features; her demon identity can almost only be discerned from her movements and aura.
"Pretty cute." Lu Yunshi smiled, not shooting the arrow immediately, but continuing to aim. He looked at it for a couple more seconds, but before he could look any longer, the beautiful demon girl, whose face was flushed red from the arrow, revealed her long, forked tongue and eerie pupils.
Lu Yunshi withdrew his smile, released the arrow, and sent the beautiful girl, Hong Wen, who was just about to unleash her power, away.
'I misjudged you; you're not cute at all.'
Suddenly, Lu Yunshi stopped looking for the enemy; he was locked onto by a powerful aura.
In less than a second, he turned around and crossed his arms. Then a tremendous force came, and Lu Yunshi was shocked and knocked back twenty meters away.
Looking up, a burly man with a full beard appeared before him, exuding the aura of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Judging from the strange patterns on his body, he must be a demon.
Looking at the person in front of him, Lu Yunshi's pupils shrank slightly, and he smiled.
"Uncle, I have to praise your ambition for insisting on taking the test at your age, but you're old enough to resort to sneak attacks, which is completely unsportsmanlike. Luckily I had a dodge, otherwise I would have been sent away by you without even having a chance to criticize you."
